Featuring: Turtle Boy, Sam Rockwell's Funky Bunch, Elias Koteas?, distracting your enemies with Sex and the City and how jarring it is when everyone but you sounds like Alex Winters. Twitter! ...

Episode 279. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2011)

Goodman Season staggers bloodied and bullet-riddled to its final resting place to specifically not be saved by any sort of devilry or devil's deal, because they just didn't get that the CGI was good, not bad like everyone else seemed to think so. That's right, it's the one good thing about Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2011), directed by Neveldine/Taylor and starring Nic Cage, Idris Elba, Ciaran Hinds and more! Because the CGI in this is a damn sight better than everyone else seems to think,...

Chris Attaway, legendary man of Invasion Planet Earth fame, recommended we find the good things in magician heist movie Now You See Me (2013). But then Paul Salt met and raised his gauntlet with magician heist CGI movie Now You See Me 2, as it was less well-reviewed and therefore more valuable to us as performers. He's a brand man to the bitter end. The one good thing about Now You See Me 2 (2016) - starring Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Woody Harrelson, Lizzy Caplan, Dave Franco, Mark Ruffa...
