Ryan and Nathan take a fond look back at one of Jonah Hill's most underappreciated efforts in The Sitter , from beloved indie filmmaker turned pot and horror wizard David Gordon Green. They then ruminate on the merits of Harrison Ford's acting abilities for a lengthy period of time. Thanks for joining us.

 As we were deciding upon which movies to cover in this Movies that are Good batch, one film rose to the surface. One movie was at the centre of all our ideas around this batch. That movie is My Favorite Martian, starring Christopher Lloyd and Jeff Daniels. That's right after all these years we are finally doing it. Hold on to your Zoots! If you'd like to send us a question for a future episo...

Ryan and Nathan take a trip back to the year 2000 for The 6th Day , a movie we are asserting is at least "good" by our metrics. We then talk about the political era of the time as far as we can recall it and end a little sadder than when we came in. Sometimes that is just how it goes. If you'd like to send us a question for a future episode, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also o...

Ryan and Nathan begin a new batch of movies that didn't click with audiences, critics (or both) when they first came out. The Cable Guy got a lot of press for how much money they paid Jim Carrey, but it also stands out as a pretty distinct 90s comedy.  If you'd like to send us a question for a future show, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also on BlueSky, OKVideo, and Hive an...

Well this is it, we've reached the end of our Bad Investments batch. Hopefully Hollywood isn't listening and can continue to release face palm movies forever (some of them are kind of fun). Hopefully you'll learn some valuable lessons too. Specifically how not to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a movie based on a board game, just as an example. If you'd like to send us questions, email ry...

Whoops, Barry Allen broke reality. Spaghetti is everywhere. The broccoli has spoiled in the fridge. Pandemonium. Can Ryan and Nathan make sense of the mess that is The Flash before large, CG orbs crash into each other and end the universes? Join us to find out.

Battleship may be a product you've heard of, but is that enough of a justification for a 220 million dollar movie? Ryan and Nathan discuss this in the latest look at Bad Investments Hollywood has made over the years. Thanks for joining us.

Ryan and Nathan discuss that other Marvel Universe Sony has going on with Morbius , the story of normal science man Michael Morbius and his metamorphosis into the living vampire. It is the latest in our look at big budget bad investments.  If you'd like to send a question for a future show, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca, or on Hive and Instagram, okvideopodcast.

Disney manages to outdo itself in the box office bomb category with The Lone Ranger , a grand throwback to simpler times that has its charms, but boy did they bet several farms to make it. Ryan and Nathan try to untangle the somewhat ungainly plot with mutant rabbits, ivory gun legs and heart eating cannibals in this week's look at big swings and misses. Thanks for joining us. If you'd like to sen...

The mystery of why Rob Cohen didn't direct the xXx sequel is solved in this week's look at Stealth , another box office failure from the summer of 2005. This one takes some surprising turns as the marketing for this film focused on three things, Jamie Foxx, Jessica Biel's body and an evil A.I. plane. But only one of those things is as advertised. If you'd like to send us a question for a future ep...

Xander Cage? Who even is that? We're all about Darius Stone on this podcast. Ryan and Nathan formally welcome xXx: State of the Union into this batch's hall of Bad Investments. Congratulations.  If you'd like to send in some questions for a future show, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca Or reach out on Instagram or Hive, okvideopodcast. -N xXx: State of the Union

Warner Bros made a steampunk Western about a vengeful Confederate General who wants to use a super weapon to destroy the Yankee Nation and only an especially talented gunslinger hired by President Grant has what it takes to stop him. And then they made it again in Jonah Hex , the spiritual cousin to Wild Wild West that nobody could have anticipated. If you'd like to send us a question for a future...

Was there ever really a chance that we'd get more than one Gods of Egypt film? Was there a strategy that would have sold this bizarre take on Egyptian mythology to the masses and bankrolled a new franchise for Summit Entertainment? Nathan and Ryan discuss this possibility while laying out the pros and cons of Alex Proyas' final gift (so far) to big screen buffs. If you'd like to send in a question...

Ah, the subjectivity of human experience. Ryan and Nathan have very different takes on this week's box office failure, The Adventures of Pluto Nash , the movie that destroyed director Ron Underwood's career and put Eddie Murphy's career in a position where he needed a comeback. But in what other movie can you see Randy Quaid dual wield pistols in a gunfight on the moon?  If you'd like to send...

O.K. Video kicks off its look at the most questionable investments in box office history with John Carter , a movie set on Mars that decided to conceal that fact from potential audiences for reasons that remain a mystery. How does this one hold up a decade after all dreams of sequels have died? Listen to find out! If you'd like to email us some questions, ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca are t...

John Cena is back in the last theatrical film released by artisanal film label WWE Films. 12 Rounds is the name and it is a game of death in the city of New Orleans. But somehow, some way, it is kind of a dull affair. Thanks for suffering with us. If you'd like to send in some emails, ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca are the addresses.

O.K. Video has been selected to be part of a very special, dystopic game show set in a grim future that could be all too real very soon. It's The Condemned , a battle royale movie featuring ten combatants. But only one of them is Steve Austin, so place your bets accordingly.  If you'd like to send us some questions for future shows, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also on Hi...

Despite many rumours regarding the ability to even see this man, Ryan and Nathan watched John Cena for a full running time of a movie (well, 80ish minutes) in The Marine , an unflinching look at the difficulties veterans face adjusting to life out of combat.  If you'd like to send us some questions, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also on hive and Instagram, okvideopodcast....

O.K. Video's look at the films of the WWE continues with this trip back to the grungy world of horror in the year 2006. In the wake of SAW , movies got pretty mean, and See No Evil was no exception. But perhaps an imaginative setting and the film debut of Kane will set this one apart.  If you'd like to send in a question for a future show, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are als...

Ryan and Nathan continue their look at the films financed by the WWE with Walking Tall , a movie so short that it hardly constitutes a full feature. Based on the exploits of the real Sheriff Buford Pusser, this knockaround guy somehow wins the hearts of the people and takes the fight to those dirty casino owners sullying the spirit of small-town America.  If you'd like to send us a question,...

The Rock's first major Jungle movie is here, The Rundown from 2003. Co-starring Seann William Scott, Rosario Dawson and Christopher Walken, this action comedy may not have destroyed the box office but it found a place in our hearts. Thanks for joining us.

Finally back from hiatus, O.K. Video is here to kick off our look at the wide world of wrestling in film with No Holds Barred, starring Hulk Hogan!

Welcome to O.K. Video's biggest ranking episode ever. Eleven films, two lists, one Canadian comedy legend.
