April 20, 2017 Episode 18 - Listener’s Choice #3: Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D (w/Joshua Kotsabasakis)
Introducing the movie that nearly broke us. It's a movie where one of the most respected Marvel characters, known for his sly wit, military know-how and serious demeanour is portrayed as a one-liner spewing, guns blasting, pervy two dimensional caricature. It's a movie so ridiculous that it made us pine for the time we watched JD Salinger's kid as Captain America. This is us suffering for you, our listeners. If you listen close enough you can hear all three of us slowly dying just a little bit inside as we progress through the unpacking of this movie.

April 13, 2017 Listener's Choice: Monkeybone
This movie is an example of how something can look so great on paper but ends up being SO bad when put onto film. A prime example of what can happen when a fantastic director is undone by studio meddling. But, hey at least you get naked Dave Foley and Rose Mc-Meow-an. Nathan and Brendan spend an hour and a half talking about Monkeybone... no, not like that... well... sort of.

April 06, 2017 Listener's Choice: The Garbage Pail Kids Movie
Do you ever remember seeing a movie as a kid and have fond memories about how much you loved that movie and laughed so hard at it? Then watched it 30 years later and had every great memory stripped away by how stunningly inept and awful it was? That's Garbage Pail Kids. Nathan and Brendan stepped into the world of a shameless cash-in mixed with hackneyed, lazy gross out comedy. It's not the worst movie we've ever watched, but it's pretty close.

March 09, 2017 Wrestlemania XI (w/Jason MacLeod)
Wrestlemania is considered the showcase of the immortals & the grandest stage of them all... this Wrestlemania did not get the memos on EITHER of those. It's one of the shortest, lacklustre and underwhelming Wrestlemanias of all time. Join Nathan, Brendan & special guest Jason as they unpack what is widely considered the least spectacular greatest spectacle in sports entertainment.

February 09, 2017 Captain America (w/Joshua Kotsabasakis)
It's like someone heard someone tell someone else the general gist of Captain America. Then they (the original someone) decided to make a movie out of that with J.D Salinger's kid and Ronnie Cox. Join Nathan and Brendan along with special guest Josh Kotsabasakis as they watch one of the most dreadful Marvel movies ever made.

January 26, 2017 Criminal
You'd trade Ryan Reynolds for Kevin Costner, right? That's seems like a fair trade. Find out the answer to this and the question: what would happen if Johnathan Kent had the memories of The Green Lantern implanted in his head by Two Face and Commissioner Gordon so he could fight cyber-terrorism with the help of Wonder Woman? The DC universe will never be the same after Brendan and Nathan unpack the movie that is "Criminal"... not just in title alone.
