Nathan and Brendan throw a party with returning guests Mariah Lirette AND Steve and Izzy of Everything I Learned From Movies to discuss one of the nuttiest shark movies projected onto the silver screen - Renny Harlin's Deep Blue Sea. From LL Cool J's relationship with a parrot to last-minute script rewrites to some extremely questionable science to THE GREATEST SCENE OF ALL-TIME IN ANY MOVIE EVER, it's all discussed and broken down. Sometimes, the gang even stays on-topic. Next week: We discuss the pick from Josh Kotsabasakis - Masters of the Universe.

Show notes

Listeners Choice Month begins with a pick from the Spirit of the Home Video Hustle podcast. Nathan and Brendan begin the riskiest time of the year by discussing the 2008 dirt bike movie (with the worst DVD cover of all time) Free Style. The guys dive deep into this super-generic box-office flop and don't gloss over a thing including a discussion about how every single movie trope that appears, Corbin Bleu as an abusive jerk, the Godfather-like party scene, the ear-shattering soundtrack and much, much more.

Mini-Episode - Soundtracks for Turds May 02, 2019

Show notes

Rock out with your... anyway... This week, Nathan and Brendan talk about bad-to-questionable films that were massively overshadowed by their kick-ass soundtracks. From the bottom of the pit with Batman Forever to the also-terrible Fifty Shades of Grey and everything in between, the guys break down what makes these tunes the only gratifying part of these turd sandwiches. They also read some listener favourites as well! Nathan and Brendan also reveal next week's video game movie (picked by our guest).
