Worst Scene / Best Scene

Our 43rd episode is our first of five 2021 Halloween episodes with the worst scene in Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula going up against the best scene in Mel Brook's Dracula: Dead and Loving It. Does Keanu successfully pull off a British accent? No. Does Anthony Hopkins pull off an Eastern European one? No. Does the cast of Wings have what it takes to carry a comedy about Dracula? No. Join your usual old co-hosts George and Richard as they discuss all of the above (and more?!?!?) alongside the great San Francisco comedian Nick Stargu.

It's raining (and defrosting) men this week as we discuss the worst scene in 1988's Rain Man vs the best scene in Pauly Shore's 1992 opus, Encino Man. Is Brendan Frasier a better actor than Dustin Hoffman? Is Pauly Shore more likable than Sean Astin, to the point that he should have been cast to play Sam Gamgee in LOTR instead? Join your delicious co-hosts George and Richard as they answer at least one of these questions alongside Sacha Chambers, fabulous co-host of the Eating After Midnight podcast.

In this 41st episode of Worst Scene, your co-hosts and beloved national treasures George and Richard are joined by comedian and sometimes guest host Land Smith as they discuss the Worst Scene in James Gunn's wonderful 2021 film The Suicide Squad versus the Best Scene in David Ayer's atrocious 2016 film Suicide Squad, a movie that would probably have been really cool to a certain kind of 45 year old white man back in 2004. Come along with us on this in-depth look at maybe the quickest reboot in the history of cinema.

Nighttime has fallen upon Worst Scene as we discuss two films that mostly take place after the sun disappears into a cave or wherever it goes when it's dark outside: 1985's After Hours, Martin Scorsese's dark, kooky comedy that is by far his best film that co-stars Cheech and Chong, vs 1985's Into the Night, John Landis' dark, kooky, not quite as funny comedy that – despite star turns from Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer – was his first box office bomb.

It's our second Patrick Swayze week of the season, and our two majestic co-hosts George and Richard are joined by Dan Sukara, the talented voice actor and living god who created them both. They discuss the worst scene in Katheryn Bigelow's Point Break, a movie about badass surfing bank robbers that also includes an incredible sky diving scene, vs the best scene in Terminal Velocity, a movie about going sky diving with Charlie Sheen that does not include any incredible sky diving scenes.

It's a very special Prince episode of Worst Scene as your co-hosts George and Richard are joined by Chaki the Funk Wizard to discuss the worst scene in Prince's classic 1984 film Purple Rain vs the best scene in 1986's goofy, fun, and far less popular Under the Cherry Moon.

It’s Tomorrow vs Tomorrow as George "co-host" Sukara and Richard "co-host" Something put their worst scene from The Edge of Tomorrow (the best Tom Cruise movie of the past 20 years that isn't a Mission Impossible sequel)up against their best scene from the Tomorrow War, a sometimes exciting, sometimes boring Amazon Prime film that they can't help but love thanks to the star turn of Mr Slice, Mitchy Two-Spoons, The Artist Formerly Known as Spoon, Spoon, Night Spoon, The Spoonman himself: Mike Mitchell, co-host of the Doughboys podcast. .

It’s Schwarzenegger vs Schwarzenegger as George "co-host" Sukara and Richard "co-host" Something put their worst scenes from T2 (possibly the greatest summer blockbuster of all time)up against their best scenes from Arnie’s follow-up, the much maligned Last Action Hero (also known as Planet Hollywood the Movie). Come with us if you want to live!

It's Mike Myers week on the podcast for some unknown reason, and our two majestic co-hosts are joined by LA comedians Aviva Siegel and Land Smith to discuss the worst scene in 1997's Austin Powers, a film that ponders what the world would be like if James Bond was ugly and weird vs the best scene in 1993's So I Married an Axe Murderer, a movie that accurately depicts San Francisco's bottomless tolerance for bad poetry readings.

In honor of Patrick Swayze, your two beloved co-hosts are joined by comedian Jesse Hett as they discuss the worst scene in 1987's Dirty Dancing, a film about people dancing dirty that also contains within it a remarkably progressive story about abortion vs 1989's Road House, the first movie to make bouncers cool and also a watershed moment for Sam Elliott's pubes.
