Play Pause

2:03:56

The boys must be out of their minds because this week they're returning to the world of Czech animation and watching 2012's Goat Story 2: With Cheese. The first movie may have been one of the weirdest movies they've ever watched... Can the sequel top it? This one is set in a magical land of cheese, demons, and folk-story superheroes. We follow Goat…

1:24:11

Just a year after Batman Begins relaunched the Caped Crusader back into Gotham's crime-ridden streets, Superman Returns flew into theaters, attempting to bridge the gap between Richard Donner’s Superman and the modern superhero era. Starring Brandon Routh as the Man of Steel, the film honors Christopher Reeve’s legacy while paving its own path. Fil…

2:04:24

In what may be one of the strangest choices we've ever made on the show, this week we're checking out a VeggieTales movie(ish) about superhero vegetables! In 2012, Marvel made history with 'The Avengers'. The same year, VeggieTales tried to do the same thing with 'The League of Incredible Vegetables'. It shares similar themes with a team needing to…

#326: Goat Story (Kozí příběh - pověsti staré Prahy) (2008) 1:58:02

17d ago1:58:02

1:58:02

The image we've chosen for this episode may make this week's movie look like a normal animated kids film... But Goat Story is anything but. This Czech film may be one of the most cursed things we've ever had to watch for this podcast. It's about the incredibly strange relationship between a guy called Jemmy and his goat. They travel to Prague, wher…

1:21:12

For the penultimate stop on our Superman mega-series, Franchise Detours takes flight with 1987’s Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Christopher Reeve not only dons the cape once more but also contributes to the story this time around, though the result isn’t exactly what he had in mind. Due largely to Cannon Films’ budget cuts, Reeve’s final flight …

After many years of attempting to get one of his childhood favourite movies on the show, Zach has finally succeeded. This week, we're finally watching the animated Soviet Union version of Treasure Island from 1988. This joint Russian and Ukrainian production takes a Looney Tunes-type approach to the classic adventure story, and has one of the funni…

1:37:24

Sometimes you just want to make a movie with your friends where you pretend to be goofy spies, do a bunch of improv, and figure out a story later. And you know what? That is okay! You can do that! The thing is, you should probably make the movie at least a little fun for the viewers. In the case of Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase's film 'Spies Like Us'…

'Supergirl' (feat. The Vern of Cinema Recall) 1:15:33

1984’s Supergirl attempted to expand the Superman cinematic universe with a new hero, fresh mythology, and a bold new direction. But did it live up to its promise?

It’s a bird, it’s a plane… it’s a tonal shift! Robert is joined by Sandro Falce of Oldie But a Goodie to discuss Superman III, the movie that trades high-stakes heroics for slapstick hijinks.

1:33:56

This week, we're reviewing Ocean's Eleven. No, it's not the classic heist movie by Steven Soderbergh that spawned the franchise we've probably all heard of today. We're instead talking about the 1960 film by Frank Sinatra's Rat Pack. We slogged our way through this egotistical mess to see if it deserves to be as poorly remembered as it is. Join our…

As Zach's month of movie choices wraps up, we check out another satirical action sci-fi directed by Paul Verhoeven. This one has a twist, however... It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger!

1:28:44

Did you know that Starship Troopers isn't just a regular action movie? It might seem like Paul Verhoeven's 1997 sci-fi film is a shallow war tale about Casper Van Dien shooting bugs, but it's a lot deeper than that... It's a satire! We're the first ever podcasters to realise that this movie has a lot going on under the surface, and that's what we'r…

Finally, a podcast that answers one of the most important questions of all time... Is 'The Master of Disguise' not bad enough for the bad movie club? Everyone knows that it's pretty bad. It has 1% on Rotten Tomatoes, they basically gave up filming it halfway through, and Dana Carvey's career never recovered... But is it really THAT bad? (Yes.) Join…
