The Portrait of Dorian Gay

We Built This City On Bad Vibes

A Not So Open Secret

Paid Programing from Omni Consumer Products

In this episode, the boys celebrate a belated 9/11 to talk about one of the greatest movies of the 80s and maybe of all time, Paul Verhoeven's Robocop.

Go Go Gadget Vehicular Manslaughter

In this episode, the boys take a lunch break to cover 1999's 'Inspector Gadget.' From the director of 'Cool as Ice', an under 80 minute runtime and actors with a decent real life body count.

X-Men Month 3/3: "Somehow, Bryan Singer Returned"

In this episode, the boys finish up their decent into the X-Men franchise with special guest John. This time to cover the 2010s series of movies. Where after a strong start, the fan favorite pedophile director comes back to mixed results and with a buyout of the studio in progress during production of the last entry in this series. It's a mess! Also talk of how liberals are no better then conservatives, the power foreign entities have on the quote "superpower countries", evil filmmakers being rewarded for failure and how the future of capeshit is looking super bleak.

X-Men Month 2/3: Bryan & Brett's Barn of Boys

X-Men Month 1/3: Deadpool's Multiverse of Misery

In this episode, the boys come back to the world of capeshit with 'Deadpool & Wolverine.' A film that fails to justify it's own existence even in the most basic ways. A total waste of time. Also talk of the UK race riots, Trump's decline in relevance, the dire conditions at Marvel Studios and how post-irony feels like a thing of the past  Further Reading:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s11uIW7wi-Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-ihCI_lApAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_6bscCG7OA
