Hopefully, the title of this episode doesn't apply to your opinion of this week's escapade as Nathan and Brendan go through various films that either disappointed them after a lot of exciting build-up or ones that were incredible at the time and just didn't hold up later in life. The guys also read YOUR comments on the subject, one fellow podcaster...

They discuss everything in this film from its ridiculously short length, the movie's lazy Confederacy justification, John Malkovich's southern accent, Jo...

AHHHH! More Suicide Squad?! Well, yes but this week was a lot easier for Nathan and Brendan as they discussed YOUR questions/comments regarding last week's movie that they covered, "Suicide Squad."

The big 5-0! To celebrate a landmark 50th episode, Nathan and Brendan unpack the Zack Snyder fantasy epic, "Sucker Punch." It's a film about a white male's version of female empowerment with all the unnecessary futuristic sequences you desire! It's a film that was so nonsensical and neverending that the scenes involving GIANT SAMURAI and FIRE-BREATHING DRAGONS went on for far too long. Yes, folks,...

Would this movie be so terrible that it would surpass previous champions like "Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D." and "Demons of Ludlow?" This film contains...

Did... this movie... not suck? Nathan and Brendan tackle the first Listeners Choice film of 2018 (from Robert Hooper) in the form of "The Cherokee Kid."

You can find us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/wwttpodcast), Twitter (www...

After last month's wrestling excursion, it would normally be time to go back to regular ol' movies but one can hardly classify this thing as regular. Nathan and Brendan talk all about this martial arts disasterpiece that also served as the American film debut of Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Now it's time for Brendan's significant other to pick the film and indeed she chose the 1995 family classic, "The Water Horse." Wait... I mean, "Magic in the Water."
