What Were They Thinking?

No, it's not the one with DeNiro and Pacino. Nor is it the Sandra Bullock/Melissa McCarthy cop comedy. This week, the guys bring in first-time guest and independent filmmaker Britany Sparrow to discuss the bizarre Burt Reynolds action (?) movie Heat. This movie has everything: it's written by acclaimed screenwriter William Goldman (!) adapted from a William Goldman novel (!!!), Burt says every horrible creepy insult in the first ten minutes of it, the film inexplicably becomes The Karate Kid halfway through and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Check our social media on Sunday for the Sunday Screencrap and take a guess at our next movie!

What We've Been Watching:

Eternals

The Mitchells vs. the Machines

"13 Nights of Elvira: Hobgoblins"

Blade: Trinity (w/Joshua Kotsabasakis)

Josh is back so you know what that means - another comic book movie! This week, he joins the guys to discuss the "final" installment in the Wesley Snipes vampire saga, Blade: Trinity. What's with all the Deadpool-level Ryan Reynolds ad-libbing? How come it feels so weird to hear Triple H swear? Do MP3s really get people pumped up to fight vampires? Did NO ONE think through the name "The Night Stalkers" before assigning it to the good guys? All this and much more!

Manos: The Hands of Fate

2 Recommendations

To celebrate 200 episodes of podcasting, the guys talk about Manos: The Hands of Fate, one of the all-time worst and most incomprehensible movies ever made. Despite that, how is this film linked with an Academy Award-winning screenwriter? Is Neil Breen a more competent filmmaker than Harold Warren? How about that incredibly bizarre "jazzy" soundtrack? And if you took out the pauses and awkward stares, would the movie be ten minutes long?
