A children’s film that includes a song about the angry fires of hell doesn’t exactly scream “Disney,” but not even hellfire will prevent the Dummies from checking out The Hunchback of Notre Dame! Tune in for our discussion of some mind-bending visuals, a hauntingly cruel villain, and a complete inability to establish an overall tone - plus one truly memorable tune, sung among the bells of Notre Da...

Surprise mother fu***kas! There's nothing like a good swear word (or ten) to help you articulate or vent your frustration. As children, we were taught that using profanity was a big no no but maybe if we were able to swear back then we'd be able to let out our anger in a more healthy way (think about it!). That said, when we think of swear words we immediately go to the "taboo" words that would sh...

"Is that the Secretary of State looking at us?"

Just around the river bend of what fans might call Disney’s all-time greatest trio of films, we come upon one of their biggest missteps: Pocahontas. Though there’s a lot to be admired about the movie (“Colours of the Wind,” anyone??), this week the Dummies are doing their best to explore some of the problematic historical and social implications of this incredibly complicated story while celebrati...

"Weeeee want Candy!" As kids, candy was the pinnacle of food (who cares about steak dinners or gourmet seafood when you can have a handful of Sour Patch Kids). Somewhere along the way, the constant nagging of teachers, parents, and health experts convinced us that candy was "bad for us" and we should only eat it "occasionally and in moderation". Well no more! This week join Tuong and Pull the Plug...

"So this is the famous Suicide Squad..." Wait didn't this movie already happen a few years ago?! Back in 2016, the comic book world was hyped to see their favorite villains team up in DC's own Guardians of the Galaxy type of movie - pitting a bunch of NOT morally good characters together to save the world. After much build up, that movie turned out to be a massive disappointment and loathed by man...

Let the games begin! Okay let’s be real. The Olympics most probably shouldn’t be happening this year due to the ongoing pandemic let alone just the sheer negative environmental impact... The post 116 – Top 5 Summer Olympic Games appeared first on PodCavern .

“Are you a Tune or a Goon?” Back in 1996, there was a movie that shook the foundation of the world (Tuong's world at least) combining the zany Looney Tunes playing a high stakes game of basketball alongside Michael Jordan against a group of talent stealing alien MonStars! Fast forward 25 years and we finally get a sequel . Was it worth the wait? Did this even need to happen? Join the two biggest S...

"I'm done running from my past." It's been over 2 years since we have got a proper movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (since Spider-Man: Far From Home came out in June of 2019 to be exact). While the Disney+ Marvel shows have been doing a great job in their own rights expanding the universe, there was a lot of appetite to see a feature length movie in the MCU. After multiple multiple delays fr...
