Episode #473
High Rollers, with Jordan Morris
Yes, we never heard of it either. But trust us when we say that High Rollers (sequel to the equally nonexistent movie Cash Out) makes for a helluva S-tier Flop House episode, especially when it features longtime friend of the show Jordan Morris as our guest. Is Travolta the new Nic Cage? Well, if you’re watching Face/Off, yes, definitely. But in terms of FH movie greatness? Yeah, maybe!

In the Lost Lands
But what of the VULGAR auteurs? We check in with Paul W.S. “The Other Paul Anderson” Anderson’s latest “boy do I love my wife, Milla Jovavich” project, In the Lost Lands, based on some short stories by (checks notes) George R.R. Martin. Hmn. Wonder if Stu’s ever heard of this guy.

Bride Hard
You know the old adage — dying is easy, briding is hard. Something like that. And if you’re looking for a comedy that feels like dying, Bride Hard certainly fits the bill. There are plenty of talented, funny folks who were involved in this film, so we try hard to find some joy. Did we succeed? Take a listen.

Episode #470
Jurassic World: Rebirth
Seventh time’s the charm right? We discuss the commercial hit, but critical punching bag Jurassic World: Rebirth, the movie that presents a society that’s bored of dinosaurs, and then makes a pretty good argument in favor of that boredom.
