Bad Movie Debate

If you think this episode is bad, just watch this movie.  Join Nick Offenbach and I as we discuss a futuristic dragon movie that was written in less time than it took us to do this episode. It's a rough movie, but we have a good time talking about it!

We have a very interesting and unique movie this time! Join Zac Castle and I as we debate Movie 43, a film that has an amazing cast, an odd premise and a lot of potential for a very good time. Grab a drink or two, watch this movie with some friends, have a good time and then listen to this episode to hear our thoughts on this movie that gets a little more hate than it deserves!

Wow oh wow! What a disappointment! We should have known that True Detective was going to do us dirty once again. Very unsatisfying ending, but it may not be the showrunner's fault. Listen to Kyle and I as we discuss the last three episodes of the new season of True Detective and what shows we recommend to watch instead!

You would think that a movie starring Chris Evans and Ana de Armas would be really good, right? Wrong! Ghosted is a rom-com turned spy thriller with not so great rom, some decent com and not too terrible spy thrilling. But is that enough to make it good? Join Neal and I as we discuss the good, the bad and the incredibly attractive (people) of Ghosted! Also, our thoughts on the current state of the MCU, Snapchat AI and a few other unrelated topics because we may or may not have gotten bored talking about this movie!

Time for some TV talk! Join Kyle Lane and I as we discuss the first three episodes of True Detective season four! Jodie Foster is in it. There's a lot of weird stuff going on. Murder? Cosmic Horror? Is water safe to drink? We do not know, but we're sure as hell gonna talk about it!

We got a spicy one for all you Nic Cage fans out there! Join Amelia Orem and I as we discuss National Treasure! Riddles and puzzles and American patriotism are just a few of the things we get into as we debate a heist movie that kinda fizzles out after the heist that takes place pretty early in the movie.

Special episode alert! Tyler Eads joins me again for a new kind of episode! This time, we debate two bad movies that are basically the same and decide which one is better: As Above So Below vs. The Pyramid! Two found footage movies about people going underground and facing some kind of ancient mythology. Sounds great right? Nope! These movies suck, but which sucks more??

Oh man, this one is good! Mike Flanagan does it again with his newest limited series for Netflix! The Fall of the House of Usher is arguably his best work, and it's not just because I'm such a big fan of Edgar Allan Poe. Listen to hear my thoughts!  Liquid I.V. 20% Off! - https://zen.ai/cMgbKQ204gfaboOl_UPV5A

Stop here first to get a run down of the show process and some favorite moments!

We got some spooky stuff for ya! Join Nick Offenbach and I for the first in a new series called "Approach The Bench" where a guest and I discuss a genre or trope or whatever about movies in a more general sense! This time Nick and I talk horror movies!

Here's one for ya. Southland Tales is quite a ride of a movie that was critically panned for, potentially, being too spot on for where we are as a country now. Or, maybe it's just too overly complex for the sake of it. Who knows? I'll tell ya who, Bryant Hawkins does! So, join he and I as we discuss this surreal film that has a lot of ups and downs but may still be worth the trip.

Snakes? Plane? How? Listen to find out how these things could possibly happen at the same time as Chris Body and I discuss Snakes on a Plane, a movie with a B-list title that could have made its' way into the A-list pile!

FINISH HIM! This time on Bad Movie Debate, Brett Boone and I discuss the first big budget videogame movie ever: Mortal Kombat! Fights? Yes! Great sets? Yes! Great dialogue and plot? Maybe not so much, but perhaps it is still worth a watch. Listen to find out!

It's time for some big monster fights! Join Zach North and I as we debate Godzilla King of the Monsters! Big monster fights are rad as hell, but it's good to make sure the audience also cares about the other hour and half of the movie too.

We back to debatin! This time we got Michael Lepage talking about the "classic" Heath Ledger film, A Knight's Tale! Join as we discuss the pros and cons of modern music in period pieces, how a cool inspiration can lead to a badly paced end and the George Lopez Show. Somehow.

Howdy y'all! This time on Bad Movie Debate, I discuss my opinions on movie and TV trailers: they suck! Listen to hear more on why I think they suck, how to fix them and some examples of good ones.

This time, I'm introducing a new series of episodes where I sit down with Kyle Lane to discuss a new season of a show or limited series! First up, the A24 masterpiece, Beef! Join as Kyle and I go through each episodes and discuss our favorite moments, analyze some major themes and discuss why you need to watch!

Wahoo! This time I'm doing a review of the Super Mario Bros. Movie and how awesome it is even if you do or do not like or have even played the games. It's definitely better if you have played the games, but still a very good, thrilling adventure set in the Mario universe. The music could have been better, but the overall narrative, voice acting and videogame shoutouts make it very much worth a watch!

Mystery! Intrigue! Using mental illness to make a character the bad guy! We've got a standard murder mystery for you this time y'all. The Woman in the Window is a well casted, well produced movie that just barely makes it across the finish line into the realm of being rewatchable.

Somehow a movie from 20 years ago is relevant today! The core of the Earth just changed directions last week, but what would happen if it stopped completely? That's the crux of the 2003 movie The Core, and it's the movie on the docket this episode with Nick Offenbach! Join us as we discuss science, conspiracy and a buttload of other random things as we figure if The Core is good or bad!    

'Tis the season! Just when you thought you were done with all the wrapped stuff, here we come with one more. In this episode, I go over all the debates thus far and discuss things that will be coming next year for Bad Movie Debate!

It's Christmas time! Join Savannah and I as we discuss Jingle All The Way, the ballsiest movie ever made for children. Featuring mail bombs, going postal, horrible fathers and a very horny neighbor. Again, this is a movie made for children, and it really does have all of these things. Hear us debate whether these things make the movie better or worse!

This episode of Bad Movie Debate starts a new series of filler episodes when schedules conflict but I still need to put something out called Beyond A Reasonable Doubt! In these episodes, I'll have some sort of analysis about a movie or film concept that I will present and try to convince people is correct beyond a reasonable doubt. You get it. First up is my assertion that the Nightmare Before Christmas is perfect during Thanksgiving time. Not Halloween. Not Christmas. Thanksgiving. Am I crazy? Perhaps, but we're not here to talk about that. We're here to see if I can convince you to pick up what I am putting down.   

A big debate about a little chicken! Join Sam and I as we get down to whether Chicken Little is a good or bad movie! Also included in the discussion: why it's bad to try and appeal to everyone all at once, my opinion on Chris Pratt playing Mario and (somehow) Mike Flanagan's horror career. Tune in to hear all this and more! 

Got something real special for Halloween y’all! Tyler Eads and I sit down to decide what is the more important must watch spooky season movie: Halloween or The Evil Dead!

It's review time! This week, I watched the new Marvel TV Special Werewolf By Night, and I gotta say, it's a lot of fun! If you enjoy the Universal Classic Movie Monsters from way back when, you're going to want to check this one out!

It's spooky season, and in honor of the most wonderful time of the year, Jonathan Wymer and I debated the cult classic - Pumpkinhead! Join us as we discuss how and why the monster looks so good (it's a ripoff), why I cheered while teens were killed (I didn't care about them) and why Jonathan believes what makes a bad movie good is simply imagining it was better (he's a doofus)! 

This time on Bad Movie Debate, Justin Hendrick and I sit down to discuss The Last Airbender! Directed by M. Night Shyamalan and adapted from the beloved series Avatar: The Last Airbender, this movie takes a lot of what we would have loved to see and does something... let's say different than we expected! Join us as we get into the things that worked, could have worked and the things that definitely did not work.

JOHN. TUCKER. MUST. DIE. We got a good one for y'all this week! Join Auston and I as we debate the slumber party classic and really get down to whether Tucker must die or this movie. Is it just standard high school movie tropes or is there something deeper going on? Should you try this at home? Is pop punk the only acceptable genre for movie soundtracks? These questions and many more will be answered on this week's episode!  

NOPE? More like YEP. This movie is fantastic and quite the departure from your usual UFO based Sci-Fi. Peele does it again in his latest installment, and he doesn't shy away from the social commentary (shocker). However, it's different and refreshing all while being suspenseful and, at times, downright frightening. 

Join me, Jacob Babb, as I sit down with Tyler Eads to debate Alien3! How does it fit into the Alien franchise? Can Charles Dance be any more charming than he already is? Is the whole movie just the Joan of Arc x Scooby-Doo crossover we never knew we needed? Take a listen to find all that out and more, but, more importantly, whether this movie truly is good or bad!
