The CineMEH Podcast

Josh is back from Greece, and he brought stories with him of the birthplace of the gawds! Tune and to hear tales of mythology, travel, lore and a hilariously out of date but still somehow topically relevant because-time-is-a-flat-circle discussion of the Coldplay kiss cam incident! Is the entire professional world a joke and all of these executives unserious scam artists? We think so! But really,...

What’s better than ONE Marvel’s Deadpool movie?! Two Marvel’s Deadpool movies! Please note that Marvel did not actually release the Deadpool movies, they are in fact Fox properties, but we’ll be damned if we do anything at all that raises the profile of THAT fallen empire.

Welcome to this season's CAGE MATCH, Bangkok Dangerous and Other Films of Dubious Quality! This week on The CineMEH Podcast , Josh and Ryan take on what might be, officially, the absolute peak of midness, the height of mediocrity, the zenith of 'it's fine,' the top of the mountain for 'meh' vibes... 2008's Bangkok Dangerous. And yes, we almost immediately become distrac...

What's the term for when a piece of media makes a meta-reference to its own inadequacies and then fails to correct those inadequacies? Like, say, theoretically, just for argument's sake, a movie makes a pointed reference regarding how women's ages in Hollywood are often and regularly cause for them to be marginalized, but then said movie tries to actively age down its female lead by tw...

I'll take obscure 80's film for 500, Pat. And the answer is: Streets of Fire What is an action noir starring Michael Pare and Willem Dafoe? Oh, I'm sorry, not quite, anyone else want to take a crack at it? What is a romantic drama starring Diane Lane? Mm, close, but we're looking for something different, one more try? What is a musical comedy starring Rick Moranis? Nope, that wasn&...

It's a well worn trope, but this week we're doing the ol' "never be a hitman with a girlfriend and a fiance who participates in an unsanctioned kidnapping and accidentally steals the goddaughter of his hit boss and falls in love with her too," story. A tired chestnut, perhaps, but a reliable one. This week on The CineMeh Podcast Josh and Ryan are going hardcore 90s with this...

Nope, sorry, listeners, it's not THAT Lord of the Rings... it's the other Lord of the Rings. Oh, you didn't know there was another Lord of the Rings? From the 1970s? Well, come into our Hobbit hole and lend an ear! J.R.R. Tolkien did a lot of things brilliantly, naming the homes of Hobbits 'holes' was not one of them. Moving on. This week on The CineMeh Podcast , Josh and Ryan...

When the skies are filling with black, apocalyptic clouds and locusts, what do you do? Well, if you're Jeep Hanson in 2010's dark modern fantasy Legion , you stare at it blankly for a moment before casually going back to whatever you were doing before and telling absolutely no one. This week on The CineMeh Podcast , Josh and Ryan puzzle their way through an astonishingly inept tale of good...

Life is nothing but a slap in the face, so goes the song. So goes the race. The rat race, that is to say. As in the 2001 ensemble slapstick comedy loosely based on a 1963 ensemble slapstick comedy, Rat Race. Except Rat Race isn't almost four hours long. And yet, somehow, it's still far too long. This week on The CineMEH Podcast , Josh and Ryan are discussing the nuances of this blistering...

Get chased by T. Rex! Oh, wait... Run in the herd of Gallimimus! No, hang on... Marvel at the colors of the Dilophosaur! Damn, just a second... Okay, none of those things happen in this week's episode, but it's still a Jurassic Park movie, so that counts for something. This week on The CineMEH Podcast , Josh and Ryan are going back 65 million years to the age of 2001 with Jurassic Park 3 ,...

What do you get when you mix the unstoppable powers of Captain Marvel with the clandestine crime thriller nature of Black Widow? You get Scarlett Johansson's most forgotten film role: Lucy. On this episode of The CineMEH Podcast , Josh and Ryan review a film they would loosely describe as Limitless meets The Matrix. They'll break down the nature of the human brain and neurobiology, and how...

Do you remember that movie that Disney did back in the 40s with a bunch of classical music, and no words, and it was kinda spooky and ended with a big freaking demon on a mountaintop? Member the first part with Mickey Mouse and his blue hat making a bunch of mops go absolutely berserk?! EVER WANTED TO SEE A WHOLE MOVIE ABOUT THAT?! Well, this is kind of it. This week on The CineMEH Podcast! Josh a...

Got to get tough! .....if you want to finish this flame-out of an action film. Because this one is a labor to get through, but now you know... and knowing, is half the battle.
