What Were They Thinking?

This week, it's another doozy as the guys talk all about Artemis Fowl, a movie so rotten that eventually even Disney+ gave it the heave-ho... and it belonged to them! Anyway, they discuss how different it is from the source material, the nightmarish jaw-unhinging, the very unlikeable main character, Judi Dench's performance and much, much more. Die Hard with fairies? OK.

Next week: Schlocktober begins with spooooooookily-bad movies!

It's the fifth Thursday so you know what that means...

Yes, it's time for another Small-Screen Shameful but this one has people you know like Tyrese Gibson and John Malkovich so how can it be bad? Yes, Nathan and Brendan talk all about Prime Original Rogue Hostage aka Die Hard in a Wal-Mart. After the 148 production company logos fade and the film can begin, the guys discuss Malkovich looking surprised for the entire runtime, characters changing their motivations on a scene-to-scene basis, the kleptomaniac teenager, the main character's boring backstory and much more.

Next week: a brief 2-week hiatus and we air a couple of reruns!

They also discuss taxi radios, the insane opening hacking sequence, the lead character doing serial killer stuff and much more.

Folks... sometimes (but not often) Clint Eastwood tried his hand at comedy and this is indeed one of them. The guys discuss Clint teaming with Bernadette Peters to fight white supremacists (!) in the light(?)-hearted comedy, Pink Cadillac. There is much to behold here from Clint's goofy character work, the delightful Bernadette Peters being good at everything, the whole thing working better as a sitcom (don't steal our idea, TM TM) than a 2-hour PLUS movie, the Jim Carrey cameo and much more.

Next week: Jag! Em! Buster!
