603 Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (with Dave Warneke) Nov 30, 2025

Show notes

This is the episode description. I write them when Mason wraps up the show because I don’t really need to pay attention. You can really tell if you listen that I’m barely paying attention. But I was paying attention when Dave Warneke popped by to talk Wake Up Dead Man! A Knives Out Mystery. Plus we discuss Avatar: Fire & Ash’s opening weekend, the original ending to Fast X, a Far Cry tv series, an update on Star Wars: Starfighter and the unusual plan to continue Poker Face. Thanks for listening!

John Carter - Caravan Of Garbage Nov 27, 2025

Show notes

We're back with another huge Disney bomb! This time it's 2012's John Carter o̶f̶ ̶M̶a̶r̶s̶ which aimed to cash on the populatiry of Avatar, Star Wars, Pixar director Anrew Stanton, Taylor Kitsch, Edgar Rice Burroughs and big rad jumps. Unfortunately it would end up being a spectacular disaster that lost Disney at least 150 million dollars. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

The Sorcerer's Apprentice - Caravan Of Garbage Nov 20, 2025

Show notes

Modern Disney is in a very precarious situation, their previously successful propeties like Marvel and Star Wars arn't landing and the newer ideas Wish and Elio arn't making any impact. This isn't new for Disney however, they've always had periods like this and massive bombs and to celebrate that over the next few weeks we're going to look at four MASSIVE live action disasters. Starting with 2010's The Sorceror's Apprentice. Nick Cage. Magic. Uh. A big bird. I've already forgotten but in the video I haven't forgotten but that was a different time to when I recorded now

The Predator - Caravan Of Garbage Nov 13, 2025

Show notes

We've reached the end of the 20th Century Fox era of Predator movies, right before the Disney purchase in 2019. This particular entry had a lot going for it, the return of director Shane Black to the franchise, an R rating, solid cast, big budget and yet it's regarded as probably the worst movie in the franchise with the inclusion of a giant nine feet tall Predator and movie Autism as a superpower. Thanks for coming with us on this particular journey and thanks for watching this particular Caravan Of Garbage review

Predators - Caravan Of Garbage Nov 07, 2025

Show notes

After one sequel in 1990 and two lackluster Alien VS Predator movies Predators took the franchise back to its roots in 2010. We get the return of a rag tag group of lunatics, a jungle setting, a muddy showdown but also some additional elements that elevate this movie beyond what had been done in previous sequels. It's just a shame we never got an actual follow up to what is considered by many to be a movie that I, Mr Sunday Movies, like very much. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

Predator 2 - Caravan Of Garbage Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

With the massive success of the first film and massive amounts of franchise potential a sequel to the original Predator, Predator 2 released in 1990 was inevitable. Despite lacking some key elements from the first, Arnold Schwarzenegger and a jungle it does mix things up with the inclusion of Danny Glover, an LA in the midst of a heat/crime wave and a new and even more dangerous Predator. It's a fun ride if you arn't expecting exactly the same thing and also like Gary Busey. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garage review
