What Were They Thinking? - A Podcast About Really Bad Movies

It's time to get festive up in here so the guys are joined by Steve and Izzy of Everything I Learned from Movies to discuss the Nicolas Cage crime-comedy Trapped in Paradise. They discuss everything including the crazy notion that Cage, Jon Lovitz and Dana Carvey were cast as BROTHERS, the endless chase sequences, small business banks, Dana Carvey's accent, the WinterFest tease that leads to nothing and much more.

Back to the weird Don Bluth well this week as the guys are joined by space rooster expert Monica Taylor to discuss Rock-a-Doodle. They discuss the wildly inconsistent size perspective when it comes to the characters, the sexualizing of a pheasant and Brendan's conflicted childhood reactions to it, the shortest musical number ever, the incredibly bad blending of live-action and animation... and much more!

This week, the suffering is on full blast for one participant as Nathan and Brendan are joined by frequent guest Galen Howard to dive into the colossal misfire with one of the best casts in cinema history - Movie 43. They discuss the jokes that don't make any sense and that are completely forgotten about minutes later, sketches that seem to be incomplete, the fact that this movie somehow got the rights to use actual DC comics superheroes, all the gay panic jokes and much more.

It's November so you know what that means... TURTLE TIME! Nathan and Brendan dive back into the endless Gamera series for the 2006 (and final to this date) entry - Gamera the Brave. Nathan isn't quite as enthusiastic as he usually is for these movies and complains about the terribly rendered effects (yes, in a Gamera movie!) and the guys also discuss the very uncomfortable beach scene, all of the sadness and death, hospitals operating business as usual during giant monster fights and much more.

It's time to ease back into the regular schedule as the guys (and returning guest Sharon Horwatt) take a look at a lavish musical with horror elements in the form of The Phantom of the Opera starring Gerard Butler. They talk about the major differences in subtlety between the film and the stage musical, Joel Schumacher's maniacal direction of the performers, the magical horse that only appears once, more problematic age differences between co-stars and much, much more. Please note: due to a power outage in Fredericton and a number of other subsequent technical issues, the sound quality is kind of all over the place.

Schlocktober Sequel Month concludes with a breakdown of one of the worst movies Gene Siskel proclaims he saw during his entire career as a film critic - Exorcist II: Heretic. Regan is back and this time it's personal! Oh wait, no - they're just investigating the death of Father Merrin and riding on demonic locusts on trips to Africa! The guys talk about this horrible sequel and the weird brain-synch mind-meld device, James Earl Jones playing a very questionable stereotype, the terrible architectural choices in New York City apartment buildings, locust education and much more.

Schlocktober Sequel Month rolls on with a breakdown of a very weird sequel to a hit 80s horror film. Yes, that's right. Galen Howard returns and joins the guys in discussing Stepfather II: Make Room for Daddy. Brendan has a wild interpretation over a scene in which he believes moustache thievery has taken place and the guys also discuss the Chekhov clues that are never followed up on properly, therapists that are way too trusting of family annihilators, "Camptown Races" as a major plot point and much more.

Schlocktober Sequel Month continues with a discussion of the oft-maligned Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child. Yep, it's the one where Freddy enters the dreams of an unborn child to terrorize an expectant mother. Oh, the 80s. The guys talk about 28-year old teenagers, the film's very clear position on abortion, Super Freddy, a character that shockingly makes it to the end of the film and much more.

Brent is back again and this time he helps the guys kick off Schlocktober Sequel Month by talking all about the ill-advised carbon copy of a movie, The Rage: Carrie 2. They discuss this sequel basically acting as a remake of the De Palma film, the coach that must have worked at Penn State, the "best friend" character that talks to the protagonist in two quick scenes, the amazing finale of the film and much more.

This week, it's our fifth Thursday of the month so it's time for a Small-Screen Shameful - the guys talk all about the 2014 zombie movie Toxin, not to be confused with the Danny Glover film of the same name. Joining them is THE Christopher Lee... FROM the movie! Christopher regales them with stories about missed opportunities with the filmmaking, lines that were inexplicably switched to different characters at the last minute and a "joke take" that was used as the actual scene in the film while they also discuss CGI blood that disappears on a whim, the hilarious helicopter fall, the ridiculous amount of tourniquets and much more.

Joining the guys this week is Shyamalan expert Lindsay Escoffery as they discuss one of his bigger blunders - the bedtime fable Lady in the Water. They talk about the miles and miles of voiceover at the beginning, Paul Giamatti's one particular scene that makes Brendan question if he's a good actor or not, Shyamalan casting himself as an important writer who will CHANGE THE WORLD, the nasty "critic" character and much more.

This week, the guys have apparently opened up the scope of the podcast to other forms of media as they tackle the 90-minute Nintendo commercial The Wizard starring Fred Savage and the debut of Super Mario 3.

The guys are all over the road this week as they talk about the road-rage/serial killer thriller Unhinged starring Russell Crowe. Joining them is returning guest Galen Howard, who has lots of theories about a fake mother. The guys discuss the film in-depth and wonder - is Russell Crowe delivering the performance of a lifetime? Is there such thing as TOO MUCH foreshadowing? How much does Galen know about driving etiquette in California? Did that opening credit sequence get lifted from a different movie? What would happen in the sequel? Enjoy! Check our social media on Sunday for the Sunday Screencrap and take a guess at our next movie!

This week, the gang returns to the tried-and-true trove of bad movies: video game adaptations. Joining them is returning guest Brent of the Home Video Hustle who is DETERMINED to let everyone know a character dies in the movie despite their appearance at the end.

Ohhhh, the 90s. The guys are joined by Steve and Izzy of Everything I Learned from Movies to talk all about the 90s Quentin Tarantino wannabe action/comedy hitman movie The Big Hit. They talk about Mark Wahlberg playing a very questionable hero on multiple levels, Lou Diamond Phillips making ALL of the acting choices, being addicted to masturbation (along with Steve's favourite line), video stores in the middle of the woods and much more.

The guys dive back into the world of Cannon Films to talk about the wonderfully cheesy action-filled Revenge of the Ninja. They talk about kung-fu grandmas, small children having competitive fights with trained assassins, Sho Kosugi playing... Cho and the totally unearned heroic death scene. Plus: Brendan talks about his unique viewing experience of the movie and later - the guys' minds are blown when they discover a revelation about this movie and Joe Pesci.

This week, a special guest co-host enters the fray and Jason MacLeod stops by to aid in the discussion of a weird 80s comedy starring... Daniel Day-Lewis?! Yep. They discuss the film Stars and Bars, a movie seemingly tailor-made for Hugh Grant years before Hollywood had created Hugh Grant the dopey romantic comedy star. They talk about the lack of jokes (seems to be a theme for these kinds of movies), the harrowing domestic abuse subplot, the hotel canal, the insane dinner table scene and much more.

Super Summer Flopbuster Month concludes with a discussion of the SUPER-silly and nonsensical 1984 romp - Supergirl.

Another superhero summer movie... of sorts. This week, the guys wax poetic about the abysmal blockbuster comedy flop The Adventures of Pluto Nash. Why waste $100 million on THIS script!? Was Eddie Murphy napping during the entire production? What was with that sound effect that came on every time Randy Quaid spoke? Why did it seem like the dialogue mostly improvised (and badly at that)? A sexy robot maid? HOW DID THIS COST $100 MILLION!?
