What Lesson Has Hollywood Learned from the Box Office? Sep 29, 2026

Show notes

The 2026 Box Office is mysterious. Michael is doing really well but also so is Toy Story 5, but also so is the Odyssey, and also Spiderman: Brand New Day. What the hell is a humble executive meant to learn from all this? Duscher starts another BS in the middle of this one, Jackson wants another crack at Pokémon, and Zammit goes upside down. Maybe there's only one lesson to learn, maybe five, the main thing is, the future of movies has never been brighter.

Who's Focking Excited for Focker in Law? Sep 22, 2026

Show notes

First we met the Parents, then we met the Fockers, then there were some Little Fockers, now there's a frickin Focker in Law. Truly it is the franchise that keeps on giving. Will the movie be like every other Focking movie or will it surprise us, that's the question. Jackson remembers We're the Millers, Duscher has a complicated relationship with Scarlett Johansson, and Zammit doesn't think we should hear from celebrities basically ever. The boys also get so excited to go Fock mode that they make a wheel bet and promise a new Based Reaction. It's crazy!

What's your ideal MC- Marvel Cinematic Universe Project? Sep 15, 2026

Show notes

The boys have asked their dear sweet friend Adam Carnevale of D&D Is For Nerds to talk about their ideal MCU project. Well, sort of, secretly they just want to grill Adam about what it's like to be John Movies. Jackson still loves Man-Thing, Duscher reads Adam's letterboxd and goes insane, and Adam believes he's been brought on to be expressly bullied even though the boys just want to know what it's like to enjoy slop like a moron.

What Should Hollywood Remake Next? Sep 08, 2026

Show notes

Hollywood can't seem to stop remaking goddamn movies. Think of a movie from your childhood, guess what, they're remaking it probably. But what do the BS boys want to see remade? What would tickle their fancy? Zammit wants to give Sunset Boulevard a new coat of youtube colored paint, Duscher wants to make an X-Box themed Jingle all the Way, and Jackson wishes Treasure Planet was longer and not funny. Would you watch these movies if they were real? That's the real question.

The Jumanji 3 Episode Sep 01, 2026

Show notes

Jumanji was a probably successful movie they made in 1995, now it's 2026 and they're making what is technically the fifth movie in the franchise, Jumanji: Open World. Will it be good or not? That's the question ostensibly answered on todays episode but not really. Zammit has never heard of the Nutcracker, Jackson gets yelled at about the past, and Duscher (and the rest of the boys) consider backsliding. How good would it be to give in to your worst impulses? Really good is the answer.

Supergirl Made Less than Morbius, Now What? Aug 25, 2026

Show notes

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, a comic the boys adore, was adapted into the movie Supergirl and it stunk a million asses. This was disappointing for the boys but surely it's gotta be more disappointing for the DCU. Is this the death knell for the franchise or merely a speedbump? Duscher is furious about release schedules and just wants to get in there, Zammit still believes in Gun, and Jackson is possibly the wrong kind of pervert. Also the Spiderweb Hair reveal is this one, and it's a doozy.

Spiderman Made a Billion Bucks, Now What? Aug 18, 2026

Show notes

Spiderman: Brand New Day has exceeded all expectation and is fast tracking itself to become one of the most successful movies of all time. What does this mean for Marvel? Are they panicking? Are they changing things behind the scenes. The boys look to the future to try and figure out what's next. Jackson, to no ones surprise, gets yelled at, Duscher starts a pee train, and Zammit remembers Spider Slayer. The main thing to remember though is that Sony is incapable of making a good decision and that rules.

Spiderman: Brand New Day is the 2nd Best MCU Spiderman Movie Aug 11, 2026

Show notes

The boys are back from the movies where they saw Spiderman: Brand New Day. Did they like it? Mostly! Did it make them excited for the future? Not really, in many ways the opposite. Zammit gets into a fight about the Hulk like a good husband, Jackson has to read War & Peace, and Duscher just wishes they would do something about Jared Leto for once. Sometimes it's kind of bad to be reminded that the MCU can make ok movies, this is one of those times.

Are We Excited for Avengers: Doomsday? Aug 05, 2026

Show notes

Wowsers trousers, all the guys are here. The MCU continues to delight with a brand new trailer for the next avengers film, Avengers: Doomsday. Sure looks like a bunch of guys standing around, but surely the film will be more than that. Jackson reaches the end of his tether more or less immediately, Zammit falls down a Ghost Rider hole, and Duscher misses event cinema. If you love seeing guys in places this movie will probably rock, if that's not really your speed, then brother, you're in for a world of hurt.

Jackson and Duscher Breathlessly Explain Minions and Monsters Jul 28, 2026

Show notes

Jackson and Duscher went and saw Minions and Monsters and it changed their lives, so they've invited their most adult friends, Joel Zammit and Matt Stewart, into the studio to breathlessly explain the movies plot. Well Joel Zammit was there anyway, but Matt is guesting. The movie is insane in multiple ways you're not expecting, and is maybe the best movie in the Minions franchise. Listen on and make your own decision.
