The Great Outdoors

Our month of listener DEMANDS continues with a John Candy Classic. It turns out that John Hughes was pretty good at writing movies about bad family vacations.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

Long before The Avengers, the View Askewniverse gave us Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, which is a sequel to four loosely connected films. While some critics wrote favorably of the movie, audiences did not show up in the theaters. This week we take a second look at this stoner comedy classic to discuss everything it got right. Bong indeed. DEMAND which movies we cover in December HERE! Join the Best of the Rest discord: https://discord.gg/86P7jJXNPb Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/user/bo...

Despite a heavy re-edit by the studio and a disappointing box office, Event Horizon still managed to find an audience on home video in the late 90s.

In 1998 Deep Rising was lost in the box office wake of a different movie about a large sinking ship, but this week we're revisiting this forgotten adventure and celebrating everything it does well.

Just a few years after the massive success of Jurassic Park, another Michael Crichton sci-fi disaster novel was adapted. Unfortunately, the legacy of Sphere is far inferior to the dinosaur movie. But this week we're celebrating the mostly forgotten underwater thriller, with its great cast and thrilling and creative use of the unknown and the unseen.

The massively popular video game series finally got its very faithful movie adaptation in 2016. Unfortunately for the fans, the movie failed to bring in enough at the box office to greenlight a sequel. This week we revisit this one off effort and determine what it got right! We also ponder the finer differences between orcs and ogres.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within

While not too technically impressive by today's standards, the photorealistic animation in FINAL FANTASY was groundbreaking in 2001. Despite praise for its visuals, the movie failed to find its audience, even among fans of the video game franchise. This week we revisit the film to find everything it does right, and see what managed to age well.

Mortal Kombat (2021)

The latest Mortal Kombat adaptation tried to distance itself from previous films with a darker, bloodier tone. The result received a mixed reception from fans and critics alike, but this week we just want to talk about what we like! Did you know Sub-Zero makes a blade out of Scorpion's blood? Because Sub-Zero makes a blade out of Scorpion's blood.

At the peak of their popularity, The Monkees released their only feature film. Virtually no one saw it. Perhaps it was because the movie was a deliberate subversion of their popular show, or maybe it was due to a bizarre marketing strategy, but this week all we care about is what the movie did well.

Detroit Rock City

Sure, a movie about a 25 year old band didn't resonate with kids in 1999, but now that KISS is 50 years past their prime, does the movie hold up? We found plenty to enjoy!

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny

As Jack Black's career was exploding in the early 2000's, he was given the greenlight to make a comedy about his band: Tenacious D.
