It's Not That Bad

Take one of the most iconic anime characters of all-time, with a long back story, millions of fans around the world and multiple animated shows and movies. Now, take that property to the live-action world and cast your teenage main lead of a Japanese manga with an almost 30-year old Canadian.

Doctor Who is one of the longest-running TV shows in all of television history, and has featured performances from some incredible actors. Those actors have also been in a number of great movies...and not so great movies. This week, we look at actors who have played the Time Lord and pick three movies from all of those vast filmographies. Which flicks made the list, and which Doctors did we choose...

They say you can’t tell a book from its cover. To paraphrase, you also can’t always tell a movie by its title. Take Epic Movie, for example. They didn’t lie about one of those words…it is a movie. Whether it’s epic or not remains to be seen. The even bigger question though is if Epic Movie is not that bad. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @no...

The nice thing about adapting a video game to the big screen is that the story is already there, there’s a template for the characters and you have a ready-to-watch audience. So with all of that, how is it that some of these flicks make us want to rage quit? Strap in, grab a controller and pray for a “skip cutscene” button as we try to prove to you that Alone In The Dark is not that bad. www.notth...

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before…Black Adam, Daphne and Stifler walk into a dystopian nightmare version of LA while that guy from N’Sync is lip syncing a Killers song and no one knows exactly what the heck is going on.

Every Christmas season, people make fun of the absurd level of schmaltz dumped onto television by the good people at Hallmark. But, anyone who complains needs to be brought back in time to 1978, when Santa crapped out the biggest coal ever to fill a stocking.

There are three words, when put together, combine to form the scariest phrase in the world of modern day movies. No, it’s not “time travel film”. And no, it isn’t “retro slasher flick”.

That said, we’re here to whisper to you that Time Cut is not that bad. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook -...

Hi there. I was wondering if you had some time to talk about our lord and savior, Orgazmo. You see, just 90 minutes of time basking in his words and deeds will have you feeling joy and happiness.

That’s because Orgazmo is not that bad. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - http...
