The Broken Remote

The boys join forces to talk about Spider-man: Brand New Day as well as other projects in the comic book worlds:

0:00 - Open - Prediction Markets
6:00 - Sydney Sweeney
9:00 - We talkin’ bout religion?
19:40 - MCU Movies
33:40 - The Odyssey
36:50 - Star Wars Stuff
50:30 - DCU
1:03:30 - House of the Dragon

We strap in to take a look at the top two box office smashes of the summer that have filled theater seats in record numbers:

00:00 - Rock’s Bombs
11:30 - Netflix Sucks
20:50 - Spider-Man: Brand New Day
32:40 - The Odyssey

Project Hail Mary living up to its name as the box office numbers skyrocket!  After some talk about the flick, talk turns toward the start of an unfunny people tournament.

At a certain point, men are exposed to content from our significant others.  Sometimes, that content is a show about mormon women who twerk.

Rich & Will fire up the mics again after a couple weeks off to talk about current events, comedians, and then what content is coming up to feast on.

After a week off, the boys end up talking about a little bit of everyone going on in entertainment, including ... movie prices, South Park, Fantastic Four, Doomsday, and the current Roblox fiasco. 

In this Broken Helmet / Broken Remote crossover event, we look at the giant news that ESPN has locked in WWE, along with NFL Network, for their new DTC app.  The takeover has begun.

Quite possibly the greatest bad movie of all time, the show takes a look at Ice Cube & Company in the 2025 version of War Of The Worlds.

In full summer movie mode, the boys discuss the newest Jurassic World entry with Rebirth, and also talk (spoiler free) about the James Gunn Superman.

TBR returns to talk about the Andor series finale and give kudos for a job well done.  Same can't be said for Last Of Us, as Ellie's potato face and Mary Sue rage continue to wreck the show.

Andor begins to come to a close and Last of Us closed down Joel.  So, Will and Rich chew the fat on the two shows.

No.  This is not a far right discussion on the beginnings of man.  Just us talking about both the ridiculous Blue Origin flight and the ridiculous White Lotus finale.

Netflix dropped a gem on 'em with their most recent release.  "The Electric State" has it all:  Bad acting, bad hair, bad jokes, bad plot.  You don't know what you're missing ... which is where we come in.

Will and Rich discuss the Oscars that was, the movies in it nobody saw, and Conan's performance as host.

We venture back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to dissect the newest pile of steaming content.  Actually, there's not much to dissect since the movie was in the commercials.  So, to the woodchipper it goes.

An ode to what???  Yes.  There is a movie which is a musical which features a tune around a trans surgery.  Believe it.  

Additionally, you are correct when you ask your self ... didn't South Park already do this?

Rich and Will kick off the new year talking about a game that doesn't need to exist, makes you feel bad inside, and wonder how a person with absolutely no charisma somehow made a billion dollars as a celebrity.

BEAST GAMES!!!!

Just beware:  Staring into Jimmy Donaldson's teeth for too long is known to turn people into stone!

We had movies to talk about, but the real mission was to get everyone up to speed with current events.  Drones, shootings, everything a movie/TV show is all about!

The election coverage was simply no good.  No big memes to be had.  No memorable moments.  To quote the show "It was fine..."

After we escape the jaws of conspiracy, we get into a little Netflix talk in on several productions including the Paul/Tyson fight along with Archane. 

Oh ... the jokes on you!  The boys look at the disaster that is "Joker: Folie a Deux" and trying to figure out exactly how WB fell into "The Last Jedi" trap.

Took us a bit to get back on the saddle, but Rich and Will have returned to get the ship moving again.  Per usual, we bounce around topics and shows, a little bit of Rings of Power, and torture you with Crocodile Rock.

It's made a billion dollars so we've got to talk about it.  Not to mention is was really good.  Just takes a while to get there:

29:00 - Deadpool and Wolverine
76:00 - House of Dragon

Sure, everyone has covered it, but there's nothing you can do.  Both these shitstorm's are simply worth talking about more.

If you want to get to Assolyte:
49:00 - Assolyte Finale

Yes.  It's ass bad ass advertised.

The worst comic book movie of all time?  Maybe.  The worst movie of all time?  Maybe.  The worst content to watch?  Only if you're Will's girlfriend.

The Brady Roast, comedians, some Lord of the Rings, and Rebel Moon.  Entertainment for days.  Actually an hour and a half.

So, here we go.  Two classics.  Back with a vengeance.  Maybe not a vengeance, but they're back.  

For the faithful followers:
Velma (season 1) episodes:  23.3 - 23.5
Rebel Moon (whatever they call the first one):  23.24

Treasure may be too strong a word, but boy did the Juice entertain the masses.

For the record, we have no clue if Diddy hates Star Wars ... BUT ... he might like it more if there was more sexual trafficking involved.

Having the word "last" in your movie title definitely opens you up to some critical wordplay.  Anywho ... you want to hear just about Avatar: The Last Airbender? Then go straight to 52:37.  You want to hear unbelievable chit chat about anything and everything?  Then just start at the beginning end kick your feet up.  And then hear us talk about The Last Airbender.

Two sick individuals talk about a meh-Aquaman 2 along with the typical laundry list of stuff.

It's true.  You get thrown a whole bunch of junk walking this earth, but whether intended or not, there are laughs to be had.

We begin this year just like we've began countless other episodes:  Ripping into Marvel/Disney!  Just look at the title of episode 23.22!  It's just the gift that keeps on giving.  Well, for this podcast.  Not so much for movie/TV audiences.

There are wittier episode titles, and there are also wittier sci-fi movies.  Like any of them.  But don't worry because from the mouth of Zach Snyder, he'll have three more of these to maybe get it right.  God help us.

You know that you've watched it.  It may not have been your choice, but some family member has forced the Hallmark Channel on you.  And the experience is the same ... EVERY ... SINGLE ... TIME !!!

We can't help it.  Sure ... there's a sea of content to watch and talk about, but when Disney is on such a historic run (in a horrific sense), why talk about anything else.  The Marvels bombed.  Loki made no sense.  Nobody cares what new movie Rey Skywalker just released.  There's a war going on outside no man is safe from.  And for Disney, women either. 

Since Trey Parker and Matt Stone are obvious subscribers to our show, we'll join them in talking (again) about the shitshow that is Disney.

We joined the global community this week talking about the beginning of World War III, which was all over the TV so ultimately fits the bill.  Kind of.
