Oldie But A Goodie#317: Total Recall (1990)As Zach's month of movie choices wraps up, we check out another satirical action sci-fi directed by Paul Verhoeven. This one has a twist, however... It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger! He's a regular guy (or is he?) who goes on a memory vacation to Mars (or does he?) and gets a lot more than he bargained for.Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee...2025-06-231h 44
Oldie But A Goodie#314: Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)To kick off a month of movie choices only from Zach (and voted on by our Patreon subscribers), we're jumping headfirst into Toontown for a review of Robert Zemeckis's Who Framed Roger Rabbit. It's a one-of-a-kind blend of live-action and cartoon, set against a 1940s Hollywood backdrop, and featuring a hilarious combination of slapstick violence and hard-boiled mystery.Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https...2025-06-011h 29
Oldie But A Goodie#304: Panic Room (2002)After last week's episode, we wanted to watch another movie starring Jodie Foster, so Sandro picked 2002's Panic Room. Directed by David Fincher, it tells the tale of a home invasion. Our arch nemesis, Jared Leto, teams up with Forest Whittaker to break into Jodie Foster's new home. This leads to Foster hiding with her daughter, Kristen Stewart, in a panic room.Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepod2025-02-231h 28
Oldie But A Goodie#300: 300 (2006)What better way to celebrate our 300th episode than by reviewing Zack Snyder's 300. We're talking Gerard Butler's beard, Lena Headey's unnecessarily exploitative side plot, Michael Fassbender's iconic queer performance, all the racism and ableism, as well as the 'Age of Empires' visuals that totally hold up. However, this episode has a twist... Neither Sandro nor Zach actually watched the movie this week...

Oldie But A Goodie#297: The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas (2000)Back in 2019, we reviewed the 1994 live-action 'The Flintstones' movie, where Sandro and special guest Rob Lloyd bullied Zach into giving it an oldie. Now, five and a half years later, the boys are finally reviewing Brian Levant's follow-up prequel film 'The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas', and Zach has plans to bully Sandro into changing his rating.Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr...2024-12-291h 37
Oldie But A Goodie#209: Moana (2016)We're starting a whole new season this week with a brand-new gimmick: we can pick whatever movie we want to review as long as we can find a way to connect it to last week's episode. But this is the first one so Zach could pick whatever he wanted... which was Disney's 2016 hit 'Moana'. Starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as a singing and rapping demigod, it tells the story of a young Polynesian princess who has to brave the ocean and save the world. There's songs, there's action, and there's heaps of water. So much water! James Cameron would...2024-11-101h 24

A film can have a good premise with a good cast and good ratings across the board, but still end up being absolutely awful. And that's what has happened this week with Hardball. It's a baseball movie about Keanu Reeves coaching a Little League team in the Chicago projects, except it isn't really about baseball at all.

Oldie But A Goodie#181: The Fast and the Furious (with Mitch Garling)It's one of the highest-earning movie franchises in the world, gaining billions of dollars at the box office. The sequels gradually turned into globe-crossing, heist-filled, espionage-y superhero adventures, but at the core, it's always been about fast cars and family... And those two themes make up most of this week's movie! Comedian Mitch Garling joins us to chat about 2001's The Fast and the Furious, reminiscing with Sandro about seeing Paul Walker and Vin Diesel together for the first time as a teenager, all while Zach gets introduced to this cinematic world he hasn't experienced before....2022-06-191h 19

In this episode, we finally get to see what the action icon is like as a racing car driver. Driven, released April 27th in 2001, is a high octane thrill ride about racing and a bunch of other half-baked ideas. It features hilariously ADRed dialogue, terrible computer-generated crashes, and some of the worst cinematography and editing we've ever seen on this show.

Oldie But A Goodie#35: Milk MoneyWhen Milk Money was released on August 31st, 1994, it managed to get quite possibly the worst critical reception out of any film we've covered so far. It's amazing this got made. It's a genre-bending comedy that doesn't really make sense. Don't watch this movie... But please listen to the episode, it's kinda fun!Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month!https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/ Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodY...2019-08-2941 min
