  Black Dynamite - It's Called a Sweet Potato Ocarina

  Sep 16, 20261h 8m

  Will and Sam spend the greater part of an hour trying to pick themselves up after getting struck by the hardest-hitting action comedy to ever bust out a pair of nunchuks in Michael Jai White's send-up to 1970s exploitation movies. Please note that, contrary to what is said in the episode, neither Will nor Sam can confirm that Monsanto sponsors gamers, zones or gamerzones of any kind and everything they say should be taken as the rantings of madmen walled up in a cellar.

  The Rundown - Breaking a Gnome's Legs With a Pair of Chopsticks

  Sep 9, 20261h 34m

  Once every few years, all elements of an action movie begin to move as celestial bodies adrift in space--plot, writing, actors, chemistry, physical comedy, fight scenes, set design, charisma, budget and Christopher Walken in all his sweaty glory. And, with a vision of beauty that could only be crafted in the heavens itself, these factors align to create The Perfect Action Movie. My friends. Will and Sam are here to tell you about that movie. Also there's a bit in there about gnome crime dramas and it's just great. Support the show

  Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow - A Shonen Manga About Clowns

  Sep 2, 20261h 20m

  The society of 2004 did not call out for a 1930s retro adventure, they did not demand a story about planes fighting robots, they did not clamor for an aggressively gormless romance between two people reciting lines while quietly wondering if it's a social faux to eat turkey for dinner three nights in a row. But Hollywood gave it to them, anyway. Join Will and Sam for a look at one of cinema's campiest, as well as an in-depth discussion about the surprising diversity of the clowning world.

  Reign of Fire - An Extroverted Wad

  Aug 26, 20261h 29m

  In days long past, in the forgotten era of 2002, mankind walked this earth with all manner of primitive, early CGI. It was an age of darkness. It was an age where Christian Bale and Matthew McConaughey couldn't turn down work. It was an age where you could basically just throw ideas like dragons and helicopters together and some Hollywood looney tune would look up from his pile of flesh and snow long enough to hurl money at it. Join Will and Sam for a look at a movie about dragons. Dragons. And helicopters. Support the show

  Congo - I Think They're Very Magical Creatures

  Aug 19, 20261h 35m

  The year is 1995. Cinemas thrive. The success of Jurassic Park has awakened in America a panicked and perverse need for stories about playing God and then being horribly consumed by primal life forms beyond our control. And like a jazz drummer with a kilo of Horse, Michael Crichton is there to supply a terrified population with its fix in the form of a movie where Tim Curry gets eaten by gorillas. Join Will and Sam for a look into one of ape-based cinema's proudest achievements. Support the show
