This week Nando, DJ, and Diggins hop into the Mach 5 to watch the most influential movie that came out in 2008 (if you don't count The Dark Knight, Wall-E, Wanted, Twilight, Cloverfield, Kung-Fu Panda, Tropic Thunder, Ponyo, Step Brothers, Slumdog Millionaire, about 30 others, and Iron Man) the Wachowski siblings' Speed Racer.

Show notes

Let the quest BEGIN! And then for reasons completely outside of its control, let the quest END! And after a few weeks, let the quest RESTART on Disney+!

This week, Nando DJ Diggins and special quest Michelle journey to a far off world that may bear some resemblance to but is legally distinct from Bright in Disney Pixar's Onward!

The Invisible Man Mar 17, 2020

Show notes

What you see can't hurt you. (This should be the tagline for the original Dark Universe)

This week, Nando DJ and Diggins strap and take the invisibility serum that...whoops. Sorry. That's 2000s Hollow Man. This week, the guys watch as the camera pans around the room menacingly in the first in a line of Universal monster movies, The Invisible Man.

They nitpick the technology, the strategy, and of course Adrian himself (if he is invisible at all!*).

* He is. It's in the trailers.

The Mummy Mar 06, 2020

Show notes

Witness the beginning of the Dark Universe! And then, when the movie ends, witness the end of the Dark Universe!

This week Nando DJ and Diggins take the weirdest sounding plane ever to the heart of London to nitpick 2017's The Mummy. That's right. Not the good one with Brendan Frasier. The other one.

They nitpick the women, the war crimes, and of course the heavy handed cinematic universe building.

Sonic the Hedgehog Feb 24, 2020

Show notes

Sonic's his name! Speed is his game! He's also a big fan of baseball and darts! And he flosses because sure.

This week Nando DJ and Diggins roll into the sleepy town of Green Hills and watch a movie that is about as good as you would expect it to be all things considered, Sonic the Hedgehog.

They nitpick the costumes, the crossbows, and of course the back of Joker's head.

Show notes

It's a movie about a lot of characters with forgettable names and then the man with maybe least forgettable name in cinema, David Lindhagen.

This week, Nando DJ and Diggins take a trip down the oft untraveled romantic comedy nitpick road and talk about a movie suggested by the winner of our March Madness pool, Crazy Stupid Love.

Teamwork makes the dream work!
