The Everything Sequel Podcast

We're not sure which of us is bad and which of us is ugly, but we know neither of us can claim to be as good as the 1967ish sequel The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. On this episode you'll hear Tom succinctly explain why each added scene to the version we watched of this classic is a terrible waste of time, several tangents that by this point should really be expected by now and a chat about the Mexi...

You'll hear if Mike can come close to convincing Tom that this movie is as bad as he thinks it is, whether or not Tom needs any convincing that this film is terrible and if Mike can build up enough "here's why the movie is bad" points before we tackle another sequel that To...

Thanks to our monthly suppor...

We're off Trail of the Pink Panther and traveling down a long and weary road as we chat about Curse of the Pink Panther. That's awkwardly worded but so are all the titles in the back half of this series because they refuse to use the word the. You'll hear many digressions discussing the criminal length of this sequel, how clearly we communicate what we think of the Clouseau surrogate starring in t...

We're creating an entirely new episode to cover a movie that hasn't bothered to create much of anything new within its running time. So much so, we make sure to keep saying that this movie can't even be called a movie.

You might not expect the likes of Rob Zombie's Halloween II making our top lists but you still may be surprised what we considered to be the best sequels we watched in the last year.

Here on The Everything Sequel Podcast we're carefully suiting up with bee suits, gently coaxing the bees to collect all the nearby nectar, being sure that the bees breakdown the nectar into simple sugars followed by inspecting that the bees are flapping their little wings hard enough to dehydrate the nectar, and then subsequently ensuring that the honey is stored into it's hexagon-shaped beeswax h...

For now that is. That's right, we're talking Freddy vs. Jason! You'll hear how much we think Jason takes a backseat in this film's story and...

You'll also hear our thoughts about the inclusion of David Cronenberg in the movie and what he did for the production, what nineties tv show we start to believe this film drew from and, finally, we'll talk about how m...
