These Are Bad Movies

These Are Bad Movies

Join Amanda and Amy as they explore some of the worst movies ever made. Not the good kind of bad, the bad kind of bad. Preachy, low-budget movies that someone thought were a good idea at the time. Every movie will be rated according to our "Ewwwbric" to give you all the information you need to never subject yourself to these "films."

We really can't have anything nice. Why is it that people still believe that women are natural villains? We look at the movie Gone Girl and the real life implications it has had on crime victims.

We discuss difficult topics including sexual assault. Please use discretion.

We watched Saltburn! And if you haven't seen it, it is probably best watched without knowing much about it, because once you start to analyze it, it kind of falls apart. But hey! At least it's pretty!

This week we tackle Dazed and Confused.... and it wasn't what we were expecting. Amy has a bone to pick with classic rock.

Everything, Everywhere, All At Once is the most beautiful, sensitive, thoughtful, mother daughter drama to ever have an extended butt plug scene. Why? What are we really going for here?! Oh, and also there was all the crying in the movie theatre. What's wrong with us?

Nicolas Cage really will do any movie that's pitched to him, and he'll really give it his all. So.... Wicker Man has that going for it. And Nicolas Cage ALMOST makes up for the lack of plot, or character development, or writing. But seriously Hollywood, get your witches straight.

Wait! This podcast is supposed to be about bad movies. What is this good movie? 

First Blood? Rambo? 

There is no possible way this is a good movie.

The 2009 Star Teck movie takes bad to a whole new level. Just reviewing this movie was psychologically damaging. How did this one get a sequel? And why does J.J. Abrams get work?

This week we get to look at Amanda's childhood dreams. Spoiler - she wanted to grow up to be Iron Man. Seems reasonable enough. What's wrong with that.

Raiders of the Lost Arc might be the single most important movie of Amy's childhood. Amanda, however, is not impressed. In this episode we tackle the tough issues like - Is Indiana Jones actually from Indiana? Is the museum blackmailing Indy, and if so, with what? And why does Amanda feel like kink shaming everyone in this movie?

From beloved children's book to problematic movie, Ender's Game is a fan favorite, but what does it say about our personal self image? Are there too many people who want to be the smartest person in the room? This all star cast at least packs a cinematic punch even if it is still a bad movie.

Possibly the second best YA dystopian fantasy novel ever written, Divergent really shows its true colors on the big screen. Amy is slightly (but not entirely) embarrassed to admit that she was a fan of this book when it was released. But, fan or not, this movie gets less enjoyable every time you watch it.

We know your dad loves this movie. Cut him some slack we all like bad things. 

On this episode we discuss how The Great Escape formed dangerous standards of masculinity for an entire generation of American men. We also discuss the real people involved in the escape this movie is loosely based on.

Fun fact! Steve McQueen won best actor at the Moscow International Film Festival for his performance in this movie.

We're shaking things up with a good movie this week. Or at least Amy thinks its good, which isn't saying much. We take a deep look at Don't Look Up and how it represents the current climate crisis.

We knew this movie was going to be stupid, but it actually surprised us! It was beyond stupid. Amy had a good time though! There are just so many things wrong with this movie, but perhaps the worst offense was not the poor adhesion to dinosaur realism, it was the uncritical acceptance of Elon Musk. Come on Jurassic World! We really expect more from our dinosaur based action adventure films.

Hey Y'all are you ready for the first installment of #HotEarthSummer!? This is the first in our series on climate change in movies and how it may not be helping with the effort to fight climate change. We're starting things off with The Day After Tomorrow, the 2004 Jake Gyllenhaal film that imagines a global super storm that brings in a new ice age. This storm, and the plot line, really sucks... cold air down from the troposphere.

STAR WARS!? But why? It's beloved! It's wholesome..... or is it? Why does this franchise seem to bring out the worst in so many people? And does it really have an anti-fascist message?
