The Film Thugs Movie Show

Well, sometimes the last minute is kind of awesome. The stars aligned and we were finally able to introduce Nathan to Die Hard. That's right, you are about to hear from someone who had never seen Die Hard before, and we release it on the 31st anniversary of The Battle of Nakatomi Tower. 

It's the holidays, which can only mean one thing... time to subject someone to this "movie." Join us as we blindside the absolute shit out of Clarkson's friend Andrew.

Tone deaf, or just deaf deaf. We watched the Death Wish remake so you don't have to.

The further adventures of Fudd Pump and crew!

This movie could have only been made in 1985. It literally could not have happened at any other time. Join a discussion about Rambo, a movie that Jim hasn't seen since the 80's.

This might be hard to believe, but John Rambo was originally a symbol of the horrors of war. Really, he was. Whatever he morphed into, he began his life as a... a cautionary tale. Can you create a perfect soldier, ready him to handle whatever he would come across in the middle of  a war, and then just expect him to shut it off and go back to a normal life? There were some heavy questions at play i...

The Rocky film series has somehow managed to pull off a nearly impossible feat, for the second time. A lot of people may not realize this, but Rocky was not a big release when it first came out. It was a low budget arthouse film that somehow went on to become a blockbuster franchise. No mean feat. But, doing the near impossible once just wasn't enough. So... Creed II That's right. The latest insta...

We didn't have to watch this. There was no reason to watch this. We were about to watch Fast and Furious 6 instead of watching this. But did we? No, we didn't. We watched this... There is so much baffling nonsense in this movie it is almost impossible to quantify it. Every time you say to yourself, "Well, that's the stupidest, least thought out, insulting to every person on the planet statement I'...

It's that time of year again. The time where we take a look at one of the most baffling, poorly written and executed, intelligence insulting movies of all time. This year, because Clarkson's job is actively trying to murder him, Jim is joined by Nathan to initiate him into the world of a movie that somehow manages to insult both believer and non-believer alike... "Kirk Cameron's 'Saving Christmas'...

After our longest ever hiatus, we are back! And what better way to announce our return than by watching a movie about how much absolute corruption and callus disregard for human life a human being can openly display, and still get re-elected MULTIPLE times? Join us as we discuss one of the most unblinkingly honest examinations of politics and power ever made... Chappaquiddick.

We round the corner wiht our look at the God's Not Dead trilogy (at this time, who knows how long they can keep this train running), with a movie that proves that you don't always have to save the best for last.

Welcome to our first Patreon rewards guest. Owen joins us from Australia to discuss something that BARELY counts as a movie. We are introduced to the world of writer (?) producer (?), director (?), actor (?), caterer (?) Neil Breen and his first ever "movie," Double Down, in which the story makes no sense, the music is terrible, the acting is a joke, and the only thing that is 100% clear is that n...

We continue on Jim's insane idea of introducing Clarkson to the Fast and Furious movies by watching them in reverse order. It's a needlessly complicated and, admittedly, terrible way to do it, but... it's kinda funny.

We are testing out/introducing a new idea. We watch a movie, and then try and give a full recap in as little time as possible, while going into bizarre detail on insignificant things. Hopefully, it works.

What do you call something that goes beyond narcisistic? I mean... is there a term for unimaginably self absorbed? Well, if there is... that term applies here.

Looks like the disclaimer from the last episode still applies, so... We are back... this time, with a bit of a doozie. But, let's start with a disclaimer... this episode is not an attack on faith or religion. It is an attack on the persecution complex that has created the illusion of a "war" on religion, in particular, Christianity. The world of strawmen that is divided between the hyper-faithful...

So, we have decided to ditch the strict genre format, so now we watch whatever we want to. This time... The Fate of The Furios.

Sometimes you do something for a friend, and sometimes... that thing makes you question that friends sanity. We present... Force Five.

So, looks like Bond finally broke us. This movie... man. We sincerely apologize for making people watch this one. It's not that it's bad, it's that it's baffling. This is one of those movies that kind of happens at you. Listen to find out how we really feel.   Also, this movie has caused us to pause our Bond marathon. It was a good run and we might pick up again at some point with a few of the mov...

We continue a new tradition with a look at Kirk Cameron's "epic" work of cognitive dissonance. That's right, we take another look at "Saving Christmas," this time with our friend Rick, who is seeing it for the first time. Is it a bit profane... oh, indeed. But, we still have a good time examining what is put forth as a defence of something that didn't really need defedning.

It's really hard to say anything good about Die Another Day... so we won't even try. It's garbage and we have a good time talking about it. What more do you need?   Don't worry, The Film Thugs will return with... On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

  Project: Munchiebird   The Film Thugs will return with... Die Another Day.

Up to this point, not just in our back and forth in time viewing but in the overall history of the James Bond franchise, things have been pretty hit and miss. But, at least in our viewing, there hasn't been an absolute out of the park home run. But then... Casino Royale. Man... Let's look at the run up to this one. 2002, Die Another Day... the Bond franchise looke like it was dead. I mean... it wa...

Ok, this is a short episode, because... how do I put this... Thunderball is one of the most boring things we've ever seen. Whoever thought that underwater scuba fights were a good idea greatly misjudged things. You see, you can't move fast underwater, so every big action scene looks like its in slow motion. We really tackle this in depth in this episode. But... damn.  Not really much else to say....
