THIS IS (NOT) THE END. We were hoping to do this one right before the release of Saw XI. Unfortunately, numerous obstacles have made it appear to be game over for one of our favorite horror franchise (though recent reports say otherwise), thus we decided to record this The Saw franchise has had its ups and downs, with the low points being more recent and arguably more plentiful, but the tenth film in the franchise shot new life and appreciation into John Kramer's arm. Is it as good as we remember? Come join Brian and Alec to find out as they revisit one of their favorite recent horror films -- SAW X!
"OH, JARNATHAN!" Twenty-five years ago, the first attempt at a Dungeons & Dragons movie was released. Unfortunately, not even Jeremy Irons' funny little dragon call could save it. Twenty-three years later, the second attempt was released -- one that succeeded and was lauded for its senses of fun, heart, and love for the game. Unfortunately, it got released right after another big franchise's seemingly-final entry hit theaters -- thus, not attracting as many audiences as it should've. We're here to tell you, we should've had three of these by now. So, come join Brian and Alec as they take a look at one of 2023's most underrated films -- DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: HONOR AMONG THIEVES!
"MEMORIES BRING BACK, MEMORIES BRING BACK YOU." We thought that Kraven was the last Sony Marvel movie we had to watch. We were wrong. Though we may have covered it in an episode of the main show back when it first released, we have yet to tackle the third live action Eddie Brock adventure for this one until now. Is it truly as bad as we remember? Come join Brian and Alec to find out as they bid good riddance to Sony's Marvel universe with VENOM: THE LAST DANCE!
"I'M GOING TO GET SICK." Long before the days of Blade, X-Men, and Spider-Man, Marvel films were borderline nonexistent. Only a handful got made, and none on the theatrical level of endeavors such as Superman: The Movie or Batman 1989. One such endeavor was the Yugoslavian-produced venture based on Marvel's Star Spangled Man with a Plan. The film has become subject to jest and ridicule over the years, and it's time to kick the dead horse yet again. So, come join Brian, Alec, Trey, and Darby as they take a look at Albert Pyun's CAPTAIN AMERICA!
WHAT'S THE POINT OF BEING ALIVE? While Joker was one of 2019's most successful films, it was also one of its most divisive. While many clamored for a sequel, others believed this version told its story and needed no further exploration, and anything more would only show how shallow that film was. Turns out, Todd Phillips is in the camp of the latter as he made a whole movie about that very fact. The sequel, ironically, was one of 2024's worst-performing tentpole films, as well as one of the most maligned sequels in recent memory. The reasons for the hatred vary between whether or not you liked the first, and we have a whole lot to say as the camp who didn't. So, come join Brian and Alec as they put themselves through another two hours of suffering with Todd Phillips' JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX!
