Speaker 1

Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio. Hey, everybody, welcome to Mini Crush, second annual Razzie Special. Even though the Razzies haven't even happened yet, but we can go over the worst. We're ahead of the curve of the worst. We're scooping the Razzies themselves. Yes, and a big shout out as always to John Wilson and Mo Murphy, founders of the Razzies. We want to give them their due. What's the story behind that? I'm interested. I've never really

looked into it. Well, we went over that in detail last year on the inaugural Razzie Special. Uh, the history and everything. So I don't think. I don't know, we should, Yes, we should bore everybody with that again. But the nominations are oute this year, and uh, we got a little social studies going on. But I thought maybe we should just kind of go over the list of worst movies because I'm curious if I've seen any of these. I don't even know if that's uh, if I've seen any

of these. There's definitely a handful of big ones that I've seen, um and enough that I've read enough about that I feel pretty confident discussing. All right, so this is the fort by the way, Is that true? That seems like a lot. Oh that's not true. That must be that's got to be a joke. I don't remember the year, although it may have started as just because I remember it started like in someone's apartments. Maybe that's true.

March first awarded the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation Worst in Film to Uh it was in the living room, Yeah, b Wilson's living room al cove in Hollywood. Let's see who got it? Doesn't say here? Well, this year the worst picture, which is the biggest razzy of all, and of course Cats is going to be all over this thing. Cats, of course is nominated. They're already doing like midnight movie screenings of Cats. It's about to start like that the theater near here called the Plaza, or they do Rocky

horror every week. They're about to start doing a Cat's like midnight movie screening. I bet I mean that's Is that desperate or is that a great idea? I think it's It makes a lot of sense for this type of movie. It seems so bad that it's it's still pretty bad, but it's you know, I could see like going and drinking and throwing stuff at the screen and having a new and good old row. The Fanatic is also nominated, which did not see. I don't even know if I could kind of fun watch that. Did you

watch the trailer? I didn't even make it through the trailer. It's really uncomfortable. I could not make it past at haircut weird patchy, like he gave himself a bad haircut with some clippers. Yeah, and we're talking about John Travolta. Obviously movie The Fanatic about a movie fan obsessed within action star boy. This sounds bad. Yeah, let's not bury the lead here. It's also directed and written by Fred Durst. Yes,

well that's a biscuit flame flame biscuit fame. They did flame into another film called The Hunting of Sharon Tate, which I have not seen that either. But I listened to the uh to the special on the Flophouse. Oh the Flophouse? You check that out? Is that just about like bad movies? Oh? Yeah, you know, The Flaphouse is a great, great podcast. I listen to How to This Get Made and love that, But I need to check out the flop House. Yeah, and two of the guys

are pals of mine. I don't know Elliott Kitlyn yet, but he is hysterical and it's great. It's a Maxi fun show. Love love those guys. Let me see here Media Family Funeral. So I've never seen anything Tyler Perry's ever done, have you, guys? I have? Um, I got hired to go to d C for Obama's inauguration to to videotape that amazing. Yeah, and it was me. Um, it was with just you and Tyler Perry. Me and Tyler Perry just on a bus to d C. And uh now the bus I was on. Um, they started

off showing the movie Taken with Liam Neeson. I have a set of skills of course. Wait, they're showing a movie on a bus. Yeah, so it was it was it was a church group here in here in Atlanta, And um, what what's the screen? Like? How do they do that on the bus. It's pretty small. It has a little small TV screens and yeah no, no, no, no no. So on the top there's like these teams pop down that's like every three or four rows. Used to do an airplane correct, So you you probably got

a really bad view of whatever is going on. So yeah, and way the bus, they started showing Taken and they realized that was pretty violent for a church group to go to d C. And puts in the mindset and guess what, you know? The next thing, the only thing that the bus driver had was all of all the Tyler Perry and Taken. Those are the Yeah. And I did not sleep an hour. I could not fall asleep on the bus. So I had to watch three Lord, do you remember which ones? No? How many of them been?

There's been a lot. And then she goes to jail. She's sort of an earnest type of figure. You know, there's something, there's a scared, stupid she. I don't know if she goes to camp, but she definitely goes to jail, maybe goes to space Christmas. Does she save Christmas or just making it? Just making it up? I don't know. I'm interested. Hey, and I'm not bagging on Tyler Perry. Know that guy, he's been. He's been a lot to Atlanta, hug and the film industry here in the infrastructure of

the film industry here. I've just never seen any of the stuff. He has. This massive He's a really interesting character because he's got an owned and operated basically studio. You know, he's got this whole compound where a lot of folks work. They used to make street market that's right, but now it's like, I don't know exactly where it is, but it's called Tyler Perry Studios. He bought a military base literally, so when I say complex compound, it really

really is. So we've got military industrial complex exactly that. It's in the media industrial complex. We've got media a family funeral of the latest media goes to jail, media's family reunion. The original was Diary of a Mad Black Woman. That was before it even started being called. I've heard of that, and there's definitely media goes boo, I've been the media Halloween. That's the scared Stupid. There's a one that looks like a Brady Bunch kind of joke. It's

got like the tiled kind of little family squares. There's a Christmas one. Media's in witness protection in one. Well, I think that's another boo. Two there's a media scared stupid too. Um well, let me tell you this. Uh, Tyler Perry is laughing, as my dad used to say, all the way to the bank. Because media family funeral. It did seventy three million dollars, which is not you know, Titanic money, but that's pretty good money. And I guarantee

that he makes these pretty on the cheap. Yeah, I mean, he's got his own I bet he has so much built in infrastructure studio that he saves so much money. He does everything. He writes it, he acts in it, he acts in multiple roles, He directs, he produces, so it's basically him just getting that check. He's like Jerry Lewis, pretty much all right. And the last movie that nominated is a movie called Rambo Last Blood. Did not see it.

I'm I was a huge fan of ram of the very first movie, First Blood, a little bit on the second Rambo, and then it really lost me. But this Rambo Last Blood is supposed to be off. Oh, I'm gonna go on on the limb and say, I was super excited to see a new Rambo movie coming out. I did not see this because when I saw the trailer it looked awful. I heard it was borderline offensive in the way it handles Middle East of the relations and all of that, you know, and the violence is

just off the chart, like gore and violence. And but I think it's really ham fisted, like it's trying to be political, but it ends up just really embarrassing itself kind of. And also Stallone just I don't know, he's not He's not the Stallone we remember. You know, Creed was good Creed Yeah hollo, yeah, yeah the first one. I saw the first which was great. Yeah, I see the second one. Yet the second one was a mix

of Rocky One too. So what I'm getting at is, even in the Rocky reboot he was great, but he was an aged Rocky. In this one, he's like still meant to be this like mega Man superhero kind of like doing crazy stunts and chopping heads and up. You know, well, but an aged version, I guess. So. I mean, I haven't seen it, so I can't speak, but I talked to his hair. That's what disappointed me. Rambo equals long hair. Still.

Do you think he did in some kind of big ceremonial move in the movie or was it just that's just how he is now? I think that's how it is in the whole movie. You didn't feel like growing it out. Maybe I don't know. The worst actor. Guys, We're gonna move on. James Franco in a movie called Zeroville.

Have never heard Nothing, never heard of it, And in fact, I remember last year with the has He's I hadn't heard of most of these because you know why, we have good goddamn taste, guys, good movies this year too, though you know Zeroville don't know. Oh, I did read about this. It's based on something. It's one of his like weird little passion projects. He directed it as well. Um. He plays like a very odd Russian character, car h and he's taking a bus into Hollywood and it's sort

of like a fish out of water Hollywood story. Has got a really weird tattoo on the back of his head of like an of of Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor. And it's based on some hipster book that James Frankfie. Really, it's amazing that a movie like this can come and go with no I mean the box office here says seventy eight dollars. Uh yeah, just no, so far underground that I'm a movie guy had no idea. The music is composed by a guy I really like, the Johnny Jewell,

who's the mastermind behind the chromatics and glass candy. There's sort of the eighties throwback John Carpenter, synth kind of pop things like the Drive soundtrack that was all this guy Johnny Jewel. Um, so it's great, it could be a cool soundtrack. David Harbor for hell Boy did not see it no interest. I love David Harbor, but I don't need to see that. Ramsey and I were talking about how you know it was. It was what a cool opportunity for David Harbor. It gets to be this

badass and then you saw it, didn't you know? Yeah? Yeah, wasn't it like painful? It was very painful? Um and when it uh, it tried to do too much, And I think there was definitely trouble on on the production as far as what I heard. I mean I was super excited. You they showed that poster of him as hell Boy is like, okay, it was hard to replace, you know, on Permanent in Del Toro. To try to do too much. I mean it mixed like the first and the second hell Boy and then put it into one.

Was it like a reset? There was a reset? Um, So you you're obviously you're you have a lot of holes to fill. As far as making sure you're still keeping the source material and also keeping it good and all that. I mean, when when he came in to to do the Stranger Things episode, I asked him, was like, hey man, I saw you as hell Boy, and he just looked at me and he's like, I look cool, don't I. And I was like, this is gonna be awesome,

this is this is this is gonna be great. You know you you hear those initial reviews, and it's just I don't know, maybe the takeaway is he looked awesome and that was about it. Yeah, but he didn't though he didn't even like I mean no, I mean like in regards like you know it was I mean, I I appreciate movies that try to do practical effects and camera effects, like all makeup was done. Um, nothing was really c G. I'd on him as far as as

far as you could tell. I mean, there was she see him with full horns and yeah he cuts the horns, she shaves, shaves sawn off. Yeah, so all that stuff. I'm assuming its c G I and all that, but like for the most part, he is, you know, he is Hellboy, um, which is which is cool. And obviously he got into quote unquote Marvel shape for it and all that, but then immediately had to get back into Stranger Things shape, you know, the drinking. Yeah, um, all right,

well this does not look good. So sorry for David Harbor, but was not nominated for the Worst Picture, so he's gonna be fine. McConaughey for Serenity movie. I did not see how funny is that you can get a guy like McConaughey. You know when an oscars and then he can also. I mean, I just go to show some of these folks just does a big movie too. I don't know how to what is Serenity? Oh? Google it? I just think of it was like the Firefly movie Serenity it is not this is not that. This is

uh bigger as he had some big twist. His name is Baker Dill. That that in and of itself, he's a he's a fishing boat captain. Yeah, looks I'm already snoozing this this description. So stallone for Rambo. Very sad at the end of his Rambo run to make such a poor effort, I think not honoring the character. Travolta got a double uh numb for The Fanatic and a movie called trading paint, which I have never heard of

even another. But I'm looking now and it looks like I mean, it looks like a Nascar thing, Sure does. But they're also ripping off the poster, the fast and the furious vibe with the font, oh my gosh, big time, with the way like the bottom the word paint has got like racing lines on it, like it's moving so fast you can barely keep it in focus. That's not look by Travolta is on a roll, and not the

good kind. Box office for this one eighteen thousand dollars. Wow, so that may have paid for his like makeup, his you know, lifts to the setting back. You know, perhaps, how does that even happen? Eighteen grand man boy, he he felt so far, he rose so high and has fallen so far. Once again. I heard that fanatic movie was it's like it is like worth the watch just because of his acting is so awful, Like they don't even know if you can do that anymore though in life.

And I also heard that he really gives it his all, like you can tell this is a man putting it all on the line, you know, obviously very ill advisedly, but like you know, because so he's tried hard. Look, there's these there's these guys I really like movie reviewers, Red Letter Media, and they have this show called Half in the Bag and they do movie reviews, and they reviewed this movie The Fanatic, and you could tell they

hated it. Obviously it's a bad movie, but they had a certain reverence for the performance that Travolta turned in because he really just you know, laid it out out there. Points for effort, points for reff right. Worst actress Hilary Duff in The Haunting of Sharon Tate? My lord, did she play Sharon Tate? Is she like back? Didn't she

have a fall from Grace as well? She is back, and I think she's doing another one of those, uh whatever the big movies were that she was famous for with the kids, the Disney things, And there are a lot of now young women who were excited about that coming back. So I'm not going to poopoo that. What

do we say? We talked about that. Lizzie McGuire, Anne Hathaway, she gets a double knob because she was also in that pile of garbage Serenity, and she was in a movie called The Hustle oh, I remember seeing what the hustle was. Boy, Anne Hathaway, you're too good for that. You're far too talented to get a double Razzy nomination. The hustle is like a female version of dirty Rotten Scoundrels kind of. I think that's the deal. Her and

Rebel Wilson, who like very much. They're both great, But it sounds it seems like low hanging fruit for for an idea. Have you seen the trailer for this new Will Ferrell uh and Uman from Seinfeld movie The Downhill. Um, well that explains the Oscars. Then that makes sense exactly. I wonder why they paired them, but it's always to

plug they were paired at the Oscars. Yeah, okay, got it. Yeah, this this just looks like I bet it's fine, but it does look like a little bit of a movie that was written by algorithm, kind of you know, the worst kind uh. Francessa Hayward for Cats, the only Cats nominee for Best Actress, and she was the unknown kind of dancer that she was hoping this was gonna like make her career. Maybe maybe they saw some talent deep down, at least dancing wise. I mean, she you know, the

Movement and it is striking. I'll give you that. Tyler Perry as Media and then Rebel Wilson in The Hustle as well, So they swept for that film. Great worst supporting actress. It feels so bad to say that even you're the worst. Jessica Chastain in a movie called Dark Phoenix. Never heard of it, didn't see it. That was a leer X Men movie that Oh that was really troubled production where they no, no and stuff. I didn't know. Uh, yeah, that's the movie that everyone says killed X Men, like

until they come up with a reboot in like a year. Yeah. The girl, the woman that plays Sans on Game of Thrones plays the Dark Phoenix. And it was one of those ones where you just read all this stuff and the trades about how like they're reshooting all this stuff and going back the drawing board, and you know, production keeps getting pushed and then bad and bad news. Jessica Chastain is great, and I imagine when she they said, hey, you want to be in our new X Men origin story,

she was probably like, this is gonna be gangbusters. I watched did you see the it the second it's installment of it, not yet. I watched it on a plane. She's she's great, it's good. Yeah, I want to see it. It's fun. Cassie Davis for Media Family Funeral, Judy Dinch and Cats Here where all the cats people are. They're all supporting Judy Dench and Rebel Wilson for Cats Port Judy Dinch din Man. I mean, you know, you should have gotten best cat cat Cat actor is what's his name?

He just really embodies the spirit of a cat. Everyone else doesn't quite know what they're doing. Like, he really cats it up. It's great. Vanessa Pineda for Rambo First Blood. Worst supporting Actor, James Gordon for Cats and he's you know, they're all now making fun of themselves, which is that's the that's the shortest gap between self deprecating humor that's existed in movie history. Usually it takes a lot longer

to get to the place. Yeah, there's no too soon with Cats that Like the week after it came out, everyone was they were making fun of themselves, like, well, at least it's campy, right. They got they got in some ship at the Oscars because they came out dressed as cats. I mean yeah, I mean rightly so, I mean the movie they got shipped from who? From the producers of Cats? Yeah, like from some of the cast and crew of Cats, like saying, how dare they make

fun of I mean it's sloppy of leaving. You know, make a good movie and the box office tells you if it's good or not, or people that go see it will tell you if it's good or not, or if you slack on special effects and all that. I mean, you can't be a crying baby after you make a pile of garbage and people make fun of it. It's just sad because that guy. Mean, it's it's weird how that dude, Tom Hooper kind of got, you know, lumped into being this Broadway film guy that wasn't really what

he was. You know, he did The King's Speech, which was a fine movie. I don't think it was incredible or anything, but it was fine. But then all of a sudden, like, oh, he's the guy that does lay Miss and he's the guy that's going to do is great. Lay Miss was great, and then why he picked Cats? It was just a poor calculation. Dare I say, don't cry over spilled milk? There's so much weird milk licking in that movie Get out Right Now. They're all there,

all fours licking up these bowls of milk. It's very uncomfortable, Chuck, It's very awkward. Worst Supporting Actor Tyler Perry gets two nams because that's the that's you roll the dice there when you do the Eddie Murphy Peter Seller's thing, you play three or four roles yourself. He got named for Joe and Uncle Heathrow, and I think had we already said, is he in? No? He's not in there as media for Worst Actor. Yea Worst Actress of course. So yes, all three roles that he played in this movie he

was nominated for as the worst seth Rogan and Zeroville. Okay, that makes sense that he's in there. I kind of want to see Zeroville. Oh interesting. Bruce Willis in Glass, a very divisive movie. Yeah, it was just whatever, Like I didn't think there was anything too horrible about it. It was just kind of like plodding along. Did you watch it? I saw it? Yeah? What did you hate it? I did not care for it? Yeah exactly, but it didn't like inspire like I are in you and make

you want to. I think we even crushed that to judgment if I'm not mistaken. But it was, Yeah, it was very, very disappointing. It had one of the great idiotic twists in it too, where it was like this big thing that happens at the end that makes absolutely no sense. I don't even remember a little bit movie impacted me. Worst screen combo, any these this is where the Razzis gets funny. Any two half feline half human hairballs and cats Jason Drulo and his c G I

neutered bulge in cats. Oh yeah, he's no comment the rum tum tugger, which isn't know itself phone just a very strange thing to say out loud. Tyler Perry and Tyler Perry for da family funeral, Sevester Stallone in his impotent rage and rambo, John Travolta and any screenplay he accepts. He's definitely gotten to that point. Worst screen do uh, worst director. This is where Fred Durst enters the building, you guys for the fanatic I don't know if I can bring myself to watch it. I'm so glad I

don't have a bad movie podcast. I don't know how they do it. I get a kick out of it. I enjoy it. But this one just can't do that anymore. I'm too old. I've reached the point where I'm like, there's too much good that I'm not seeing. I can't be like, I'm gonna watch something terrible totally yeah, I mean, I don't know. I I think it has this place. Sometimes I just want to be like be able to turn my brain off and watch something to this. I love the concept of putting so much effort into something

that's so awful fascinates me. But like Um, on the podcast the movie Crush interview you did with your buddy UM who turns on all the great music and stuff about being there, Um, you talked about how I think you were more okay with it than he was. But as you get older, you're less fond of the awkward and humor of the stuff that makes you uncomfort does not like it, you do love it, okay. See, I I look at bad movies in that same lens in some way that's sort of like awkward humor, just like

even if it's an unintentional right, you know. James Franco worst director for Zero Bill, Adrian Grundberg for Rambo uh Tom Hooper for Cats and Neil Marshall for hell Boy. And I think some of the hell Boy stuff is people are mad because they ruined something they love, which is bound you run that risk. Franco hasn't really had a good director consistently liked directorial feature. I don't believe well he directed The Room right, he did do that.

That one was that it was pretty popular. Worst screenplay Cats, Lee holland Tom Hooper Hunting of Sharon Tate by Daniel Farran's hell Boy. I think you see a pattern here, Andrew Cosby media like Berry and Rambo, Stallone and Matthew Syroll Nick. That's why the Bruce Willis things surprised me because Glass is the only thing that's kind of been different. Everything else is sort of the same stuff. The worst remake rip off her sequel, Dark Phoenix, Godzilla, King of Monsters,

did not see anyone. No, I saw it was awful. Yeah, it was like even the monster fights were boring. That one. I had a little higher hopes for it because it had Mathra and they kind of pulled out some of the old stops. Yeah, it was just weird. The pacing of at least taking these Godzilla movies, right, can they? Godzilla still fattening it? He he looks more like classic Godzilla, like with the silver ridges you know, on his back and stuff. And yeah he's fat like he but that's

the class of Godzilla. He's a little stumpy, you know. I mean it looks okay. I think I saw that first one. Yeah. I like that. He screams lasers. That's pretty cool. You know, he roars and lasers come out. That's pretty neat, which I think is original Godzilla. Yeah. Never he breathed fire or anything like that. Oh, we relate to begin with. No, he didn't know he did that laser stuff um from his mouth. I mean, I

don't know. Laser stuff was a classic Gudzilla move. Hell Boy with a family funeral in Rambo, First Blood, I'm sorry, Last Blood. The worst reckless disregard for human life and public property, which is a new category. A movie called Dragged Across Concrete. Wait, I heard that was really good, talked about that. It's just I believe it's the guy. Hey, if Casey liked it, No, it's the guy that did something else that we've all kind of enjoyed. Um, I

believe he did Bone Tomahawk. Oh well, I certainly loved that movie. Yeah, Craig teasallar. But again, this is this is referring to him not being very safe. I think right, maybe he did a movie called Brawl and Sell Black ninety nine. Bone Tomahawk. Bone Tomahawk was fantastic. It's just the same guy tried to call and tried to cry. Concrete was two thousand and eight teams. So I don't know where this is coming. Hunting him. Sharon Tate hell boy joker. I'm not even sure what this category means.

Does it mean they're like they're setting stuff on fire in public? I don't know. I'm not sure it's a ding on their safety record. And Rambo lest Blood the Razzie Redeemer. Oh interesting, So this is a I guess someone coming back from the Razzies and doing something great. Eddie Murphy Dolomite is my name. I still haven't seen that. Have you seen it? It is good? Is it great? Yeah? It was. It was probably in my top ten from last year. All right, I mean say no more, but

it's it's and they have a good point. It's like, you know, Eddie Murphy's back to where he was like, you know, I don't know if it if it's there where I loved him in the eighties and all that, but he definitely took my stage. But yeah, he definitely took a step forward. But like the costuming, the look, the field, the soundtrack, it's all great. Yeah, and um, you know, I mean, big props to Netflix for for putting that out. Yeah, so I need to get that

back on my list. Kenna Reeves, John Wick three Toy Story four, Big Comeback, Adam Sandler uncut, Jim's his indie spirit a word. Uh. Speech was great. I don't know if you've heard or saw that. Uh, Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers, it's great. Did you see Hustlers? Did? I heard? It was wonderful. It's good. I got kind of Oscar snobbed right big time, like before we're expecting it to get a little bit of love. I don't know if it was Oscar caliber stuff, but it was good. It was

a fun watch. I had a lot of heart. It was more than I expected. The relationships it was really about these relationships was good. There was some good side actors in it as well that got some some attention. But I thought the whole cast did a really great job to check it out. I liked it. Uh, Will Smith in Aladdin he got the Redeemer Award for Aladdin. I thought that was panned. It was what who got it? Who got it? Will Smith? Maybe? I mean he did

a good job. I don't know. He also did Gemini Man that came out that was horrible, that's right, and that escaped the Razzies, which is interesting in full. Did I tell my Will Smith story on the podcast? It just a really quick quick version of it. If I haven't,

I have already in being done it. I saw I was a Gemini Man premier at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, and we were staying at the Roosevelt and they closed down the lobby for the party and they make you go out the valet exits and we went out and Will Smith and his entire family were like kind of corraled in there, like you know, being kept and they would be like walked out to the event, and when we walked being kept safely away, safely away from the Yeah,

let me see here. Nominations per picture. Cats got nine, Media got eight, Rambo got eight, hell Boy with five, Sharon Tate with four, Fanatic with four, Zeroville with three, So that is the Razzies. And then I went to the movie crush page and I asked everyone what there what they thought was the worst movie that they saw. So I was like, you can't just say Cats, because you know, I don't even know if I can pick out a worst movie that I saw, because I say it all the time. I don't have a ton of

time to see movies. I only see the good ones. I don't know if I saw a bad movie last year. Yeah, I mean, aside from Cats, which I absolutely saw on purpose, but maybe disappointed in some movies. There you go, But I didn't see anything bad. I don't think it was a good year from movies too, And there were so many options that you know it would have taken. I mean, there's still stuff I want to see. I really need to see. Brandy mcdonald'says The Lion King. I heard that

was pretty bad. It was just it was just like why bother? Uh? Lee Leonard maybe unpopular, but I'm gonna go with ad Astra could try to be Gravity plus Interstellar, but couldn't come close to either one that I need to see. That that's a very divisive movie. Because my friend Scotty, who very famously doesn't like mini movies that come out in the theater these days, said he really liked it. I've heard the same, so I don't know, because he got some backup here that people said they

did not like ad Astra. Matthew Jones said he saw the fanatic. I'm going to believe him what you were. You were one of the twelves. You have no reason not to. J Fraser says. Check out the Razzy Redemption Award, which we just did toss up for Sandler or Murphy. Maybe what if Eddie Murphy showed up to the Razzi still accept that, you know, I mean, that's like the one positive award you can get, but it's also sort

of a backhanded compliment, right, I guess. I mean, they're televising them this year, I think for the maybe first time on one network. I don't know, I would I would guess that would be like c W, Spike or I'm not even sure what networks are out there anymore. Brennan Rice said tie between Glass and Rise of Skywalker. They weren't completely terrible, but had higher expectations. Well that's not what I necessarily, but I still like to hear those thoughts. Brendan, Well, it goes with what you were

saying about being just disappointed. Yeah, I'm looking for the worst movie though, Brian Ridge said Glass horrible decision to go see that movie. That one is probably tempered to by the fact that, you know, Unbreakable is pretty beloved. And then that split movie was a surprise, pretty good one people. Okay, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the secret, the twist that it was in fact a in that

universe that was kind of neat. And then for Glass, they tried to really lean all the way into that, and that was maybe the mistake was that nobody needed that. I mean, I saw Glass in the theater because I was excited to pay off this three film thing, and they the the big huge fight scene at the end was in a parking lot. Was it raining? At least

it was bad. I don't remember. They set up this whole thing that was going to be this at the top of this building that they were debuting, this brand new building in Philadelphia, and it was a red herring and it was just like the worst kind of red herring, because that would have it felt like they didn't have the money to do that, so they're like, man, let's just let's do it in the parking lot. I mean, even a fight at the top of the skyscraper is

pretty cliche. You know, Well that's I'll take cliche over a parking lot. What I'm saying is to tease that as being the thing is already kind of like a who cares, and then to not even deliver be in the parking lot. It's just sad. You know, Maddie and I crushed out Six Cents last week, and that's a movie that just doesn't hold up that well for me. I think he does some things well, but I think overall he's not that great of a filmmaker. And that was him at that time, not a good film workers

six Cents. Yeah, that's what people well, it's this person. But it was the one where people were like, oh, that's the old Schamalan twist, you know, that's yeah, became a thing I did, like Unbreakable, but that's kind of it. Let me see here. Steiner, Well, dun Kirk Christopher was not last year. Maybe he's thinking of nineteen seventeen. I think he just got the year wrong. Maybe he thought Dunkirk was made in nineteen seventeen. Did you guys see

nineteen seventeen? Did you I did? It's great, cool, really really good. Uh, let me see. Hell Boy was terrible, This is Jennifer Mudge Glass wasn't as good as it could have been, and Yesterday was kind of boring, Lion King was man and honestly, Avengers Infinity War was way better than in game. All right, still not the worst movies.

Kate Bryson says Doctor Doolittle, that looks like garbage. I don't know if you guys have seen the preview for that, but it just looks like corny kind of you know, it looks like I want to shake Robert Downey Jr. By his golden lapel's and say, do another movie, dude, where you really act? I mean, I love Tony Stark, but I want to see him dig in. I said, this is a Disney thing. Oh, I don't know. I'm

sure it's Freaks of Disney. Looks like, yeah, they spent a lot of money making that movie too, and lose a lot of money. Really, you think it's gonna flop? You think it's gonna Yeah, there you go. My daughter wants to see it, so I'll let you guys, But I don't know. Anytime you gotta have like celebrity voices for like a pair of chimpanzees or whatever. You know,

you're scraping the bottom of the barrel. Well, Kate says, I took kids to a five dollar ticket pajama movie event and it costs four too much jumbled, pointless, waste of talent mess Kate. I like what you're throwing down there. It's my kind of review. Oh here we go. David Keith said the Irishman. Such high expectations in the film for a film to be totally bored out of my mind, Yeah, I gotta say I was very and not in a

throwing shade way. I was very glad to see the Irishman get completely shut out the oscars of the SAG Awards. I think the d g A Awards. There was one other major award that or no Golden Globes. I think I wish they had a camera on Scorsese the whole time, seeing him Bob or try to well to eminem when he got on stare just like confused. But I'm sure he's confused a lot I think everyone was confused by that because everyone was just kind of like, why is

he here singing that song? But the joke is that the oscars are always a little behind the curve, and that's just like them being behind the curve in a hilarious way. Because he actually won the Oscar for that song in like two thousand two. Yeah, it was. It was definitely interesting. I mean, it was a good performance, but it felt like, oh, what do we have some

time to kill? Who should we get? Well, he didn't perform it when it when it won that he didn't perform it because he had just performed it at the Grammys, right, and he didn't want to do it again. That makes sense. I got a question for you guys. Who's pumped for

the Sonic the Hedgehog movie. Nobody? My daughter is, so you know about the saga behind this check that they released the trailers and people were so freaked out by the design of Sonic the Hedgehog they pulled the move they read character to make him look more like the video game, because he looked like he had human teeth and he had like really like kind of slender muscular legs and everything about him, which is very uncanny valley and awful, and so they rereleased a new trailer now

he looks like the video game, and it's coming up this weekend. There are no reviews from critics yet, so that's always a good well, that means they didn't write screening screening. It's that dude schwartz Um, the guy who plays gen John Ralphael on Parks and Rack. He's always on comedy bank Man. What's his name? Yeah, I know the guy. Yeah, he's he plays short. He plays the voice of Sonic, so Jim Carrey's in it as well.

He has plays Dr robot Nick. I don't know anything about Sonic the Hedgehogs, okay, I mean as a game or whatever. He's just a hedgehog that runs really fast and collects magical rings and is chased by a evil scientist named Dr Robotnic. Hey sounds like a movie to me, agreed. Christopher Cornado says Rise of Skywalker. I felt like I was thrown together. Thrown together, uh, to just close everything out and shut everyone up. Haven't been that disappointed in

a movie since the Happening? All right? Then, Olivia read says it Chapter two bloated run time not scary, baffling choices, It was a little weird, it was quite long. Hodgeman said he liked it better than the first one. Yeah, you were saying them, which is the only person I've heard say that? The Gooch David Gooch says, probably Glass. Shamelan was on an upswing then completely dropped the ball on this one. Yeah, I don't know a lot of people that love Glass. And then finally j Prager says,

Cats so beautifully bad but bad. Nonetheless, it was a train wreck. So those are the worst movie is according to the Crushers, Those are the worst movies according to the Razzies. Um, I don't know if we should even bother saying who won the Razzie because that's not happening. They were thrown because they tried at the time with the Oscars, But the Oscars was sooner this year, and the Razzies, I think we're caught with their pants down a little bit. So when are they coming when? I

don't know even know? They just said, you know what, We're just gonna stick to our schedule even because the Oscars went early, and we're not gonna try and rush this thing. Got it? You can't rush the Razzi. Gotta appreciate them is taking to their guns like that. Hey it's the Razzies. Uh. Any parting thoughts on worst movies guys, No, it's like you said, Chuck. I mean, it was a great year for movies. I didn't really have much time

for bad movies. And I really out of all these, I thought I had seen more, but I really only saw cats and just realized I just kind of read about the Rambo movie and uh, some of these that I hadn't even heard of. I do kind of want to watch The Fanatic and Zeroville, though, um boy, maybe I should try and watch the Fanetic because I don't know if there's something about Travolta in that haircut that does kind of pull me in a little bit. Yea, yeah, yeah, exactly.

It's got a magnetic quality, I gotta admit, but I just don't know. I have the feeling. It's one of those things where after I finish, I've been like, well, I could have watched a good movie. You could. Maybe I'll just watch the trailer. Yeah that. Honestly, by now, there's probably like a cut up like clips of some of his biggest like freak Out, scenes that would probably do it too. It's like a little the Room. I don't need to watch the all of the room, just

watch the little the cutouts. Yeah, or watch the artist. Wasn't that the name of it? The disaster? Disaster artists? Got anything else? Ramsey bad movie wise? Bad? Movie wise. I would say my worst movies I saw were hell Boy and I did see I had Dark Phoenix in the background, just because I don't know anytime comic book movies I see them all usually. Yeah, I did not

see that one though. It was awful, and it also I mean with with the troubles on set and all that type of stuff, and also that happened during the acquisition, and so Fox kind of was like, Okay, We're we're done making movies. Anyways, Jennifer Lawrence was in it, and I think she was had issues with with the direction and all that, and was like, she's also in like a weird blue skin suit in that movie, so it's not even properly her. I mean, it's but like she's

wearing this weird, scaly blue skin suit the whole time. Yeah, well, so she's playing obviously, she's playing her mystique. Yeah, she's playing mistique and she got pulled into the whole x Men stuff when she was a little bit lesser named, and um then she kind of she didn't even want to do this one. Yeah, she was like, I'm done with this. This is you know then, you know rightfully? So, I mean that's what I like those Matthew Von movies,

the First Class stuff. Yeah, that was great. That was great. That was such a great I mean X Men has all, for me, always been a very troubled production, like movies have always been bad, and then First Class was, Like I I liked most of the X Men movies, like the first few. I definitely like the first one, the ones with with our Boy Wolverine. Uh, yeah, I like

them all. I love the Wolverine movie. Logan Is Logan, Yeah, logan Is was one of my favorite films of of of hearing sound a thing though that doesn't even have a tonal similarity. That's like its own kind of outlier. Yeah. I think it was also the first like R rated marvel leat type movie that maybe got studios thinking like, okay, we can do now, we can do a Deadpool. Wasn't that pre Deadpool? Or no? Or was Deadpool the first one that really did it. I can't remember, but yeah,

it was that in Deadpool. Um yeah, but like yeah, I mean Logan was freaking amazing. I mean, they couldn't have cast a better Wolverine with the Hugh Jackman. I mean, he's he's perfect for that role. And the casting that they did for first Class was great. It's just like, I think the script wasn't there. I mean, it's such a hard thing to cover as well as far as you know, they didn't introduce the character of Phoenix or Gene as well as they did the other X Men characters.

There's a lot of it was rushed and you didn't didn't have the investment in there. She had to assume a lot or like a rare misstep. Do you think they're a little recast Wolverine because I know Jackman is never gonna do it again. Do you think they're gonna like give it a minute, sort of like to do with Batman movies. I would be surprised if they left

money on the table. It's Disney, man, They're going to find some way to make them bring them back, and I don't think they'll be like character We're done with Wolverine. Now you're right. I mean that whole m c U universe is going to be very interesting this year and going into the next couple of years, just the next wave, Yeah, it will be very interesting. Alright, Dark Phoenix, no good. Thanks for joining us for the razzies, everyone, I hope you saw some better movies than those, and we'll see

you next week. For more podcasts for my heart Radio, visit the I heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows.
