I am a big fan of "bad movie" shows. MST3K, Flop House, WHM, HDTGM, etc., but a few years ago I thought, "why not do the opposite? do a podcast praising hated, bad, or underappreciated movies." so I did.

the guest *always* likes the movie, and I provide historical context for the negativity. 😉

paying money for shark movies can be a risky proposition, but I can tell you that this one's good. got to see it on a big screen at Fantastic Fest and quite enjoyed it.

some people at Fantastic Fest used the phrase, "even better than Part 1." honest!

Hey guys, if you’re not too busy this weekend, maybe it might be a good time to go see a movie. Just a thought. I heard there is something good playing.

he did all of the most iconic posters for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, and Police Academy movies, of course, but these are some of my other favorites.

Rest in peace, Drew Struzan. His movie posters are much more than marketing. They're some of the finest pop art you'll ever see. Look at this masterpiece:
