As New Year’s approaches, and we say goodbye to 2024, Stuart takes us on a gamified tour through the year in movies.

We discuss Borderlands, a video game movie that got delayed for several years, with extensive reshoots where an uncredited director took over for Eli Roth — but it’s probably okay, right? It’s not like that sentence has at least five red flags in it… We’re in season 2 of FlopTV! Pop in for individual episodes, […]

Though we’ve done our best to not let it disrupt the show, Elliott’s a busy bee these days and had to sit this one out, so Dan took the rare opportunity of being able to finish his sentences to get to know his old pal Stuart a little better… but with a film-related twist.

We took a short break around Thanksgiving, which means YOU finally get to hear one of our LIVE episodes from Oxford’s inaugural Saint Audio Podcast Festival! We were extremely excited to finally do a show in the UK and see some listeners from across the pond, and — because we were in England — we HAD to talk about 1998’s The Avengers (aka “the non-Marvel-one), a legendary mega-flop and a despoiling of a beloved British TV series.

The thrilling conclusion of our definitive action hero rankings, as determined by Stuart’s totally scientific, non-bullshit method!

“But Trap wasn’t a flop!” you scream to the heavens. “Neither financially, nor critically!” you wail, desperately. “It made 83 million on a 30 million budget! And it got a mixed, but not-awful 52 on Metacritic!” But the uncaring Gods of Flop offer no comfort. Because whatever your personal feelings, Trap has inspired STRONG OPINIONS, and besides, when you have a great guest like Linda Holmes, you surrender to the whims of the floppiverse.

Stuart uses the scientific and not-at-all random method that he perfected in his rankings of horror movie villains to help us determine the ultimate movie action hero. We’re in season 2 of FlopTV! Tune in for individual episodes, or get a price break with a season pass! Full line-up/tickets here! And while you’re clicking on stuff, […]

You KNEW this episode was coming, and we got to it as soon as we could! We discuss Francis Ford Coppola’s defiantly personal, defiantly incomprehensible, personal-fortune-destroying Megalopolis! And for such a megaflopolis episode we enlisted the help of Roman Mars, a man who knows a thing or two about architecture and design, and who’s currently co-hosting a podcast series with Elliott about The Power Broker, a book about Robert Moses (clearly an inspiration for Adam Driver’s “what if Robert Moses but not totally evil” character)!
