(Pod)Cast of CriticsEpisode 9: Armageddon - You Got Soft Hands, BoyIn the last of our '90s Disaster series, a new critic joins the cast! Mitchell - Garrett's brother and Michael Bay aficionado - joins us to talk 1998's Armageddon. It's the end of the world - and this series - as we know it, going out with a literal bang as Bruce Willis and the boys blast off to drill an asteroid before time runs out. Guns in space, animal crackers, Aerosmith - trust us, you don't want to miss a thing in this episode.

Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton star as a very competent scientist and a very incompetent mayor - whose stirring and not-at-all forced romance is interrupted by that gosh darn volcano right down the street - and it would have gotten away with it too! If it weren't for that meddling Pierce knowing how to solve every problem ever- and looking way too good doing it.
