Episode description

It's part two of our Throwback Throwdown of Deep Impact vs. Armageddon! While Deep Impact was a pensive meditation on how the world would react to a meteor heading toward Earth to wipeout humanity, Armageddon is a nonstop, breakneck Aerosmith music video that leaves no breathing room for the viewer and needs to blow something up every ten minutes just to calm the shakes. It's Michael Bay's most Michael Bay-ish movie and was the highest grossing film of 1998, but is it the best meteor-based picture of 1998? We examine the film thoroughly to find the method to the madness and the brilliance in the Bayhem. We also talk about Keith David, That Thing You Do, Holly McClane Syndrome, and the Mystery of Noonan. Listen closely and don't fall asleep because you don't want to miss a thing!
