This week we continue the M. Night-a-thon with the first M. Night movie to lose money, Lady in the Water! This movie has it all! A mostly naked Bryce Dallas Howard (who is mostly mute), a starring role for M. Night, and Paul Giamatti with a stutter because his family was slaughtered…look out for a scrunt!

How will Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery hold up?

Since we are covering Austin Powers later this week, we figured we should release a silly Bond Movie as well. Enjoy this coverage on Never Say Never Again, a remake of Bond’s most boring movie Thunderball. Sean Connery returns as Bond to spite the Broccoli’s in what was supposed to create a new Bond Spin-off to challenge the Timothy Dalton movies. Oof. How can the director of Empire Strikes Back make a movie this boring!

How will Never Say Never Again hold up?

Host: Nic

Directed by Irvin Kershner

Starring: Sean Connery, Kim Basinger, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Max von Sydow, Barbara Carrera, Bernie Casey, Alec McCowen, Rowan Atkinson

This week, we head to the beach for two films from the back catalog and former patreon to celebrate the beach. We watched the most recent role in black face to get nominated for an academy award and the last time Tom Cruise got to act nutty. We watched Tropic Thunder. I don’t drop character ’till I done the DVD commentary. 

How will Tropic Thunder hold up?

Host: Nic

Panel: Fitzy, Nic, Charlie

Directed by Ben Stiller

This week, we head to the beach for two films from the back catalog and former patreon to celebrate the beach. This episode we go to a movie that learned all the wrong lessons from its predecessor. After the success of previous episode A Muppet Christmas Carol they thought they could do another classic. The novel Treasure Island is a layup, right? Well, replace Michael Caine with Tim Curry and we are off to the races. Also, have it led by a child in his first role and you are in trouble already.

How will Muppet Treasure Island hold up?

Host: Nic

Panel: Thomas and Daniel

This week, we have done it. As I said Monday, we worship the beautiful specimen that is Pierce Brosnan. From the heights of James Bond, to the depths of The Lawnmower Man, we focus on everyone’s favorite Irish Bond. This time we review the Stephen King adaptation SO bad, he sued to remove his name, twice.

How will The Lawnmower Man hold up?
