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!

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.

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.

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.

This week we wrap up season 8 with Dexter’s Lab: Ego Trip, a made for TV masterpiece by Genndy Tartakovsky, as we learn that Eddie Deezen is annoying throughout all time. 

Also, as an update, our Patreon is officially ending and we would like to thank all those who supported us during CoVid. In the meantime, we will be taking July off for vacation. Which for you means, you will receive two episodes a week all month long! Some from the Patreon and some from the old archive! Enjoy!

This week on Myopia we learn the true evil of owls. In honor of the release of Elvis, we watched the Glen Campbell/Don Bluth movie, Rock-A-Doodle. Nothing like a kid’s movie about the forced sexual pressure put on actresses. Also, don’t make the kid with the adorable speech impediment try to say “Chanticleer” 1000 times.

In honor of the mediocre end to the Jurassic World Trilogy, we return to the 2015 movie that sucked the charisma out of Chris Pratt, Jurassic World; a movie I have now seen easily two dozen times due to my daughter’s love of dinosaurs and a vast Mattel marketing line. Join us for a second season episode where we are young sounding and still optimistic for the hopes of Universal Dino movies, we ignore running in heels, and are generally high on a fun movie experience.

Enjoy

Hosted by Nic

Directed by Colin Trevorrow
Starring: Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, Judy Greer, Irrfan Khan, Vincent D’Onofrio, Jake Johnson, Omar Sy, BD Wong, Lauren Lapkus, and a useless cameo by Jimmy Fallon
