We're altering the deal. Pray we don't alter it further. ——— Well, hello there! Long time no see. Yes, You're Wrong has been away for a while, but it was for a very good reason. Anyway, the nerds decided to return with a certified and guaranteed banger: they watched and rambled on about the masterpiece that is The Empire Strikes Back (if you don't know what that is, I have absolutely no fucking idea how you ended up here... but hey, welcome to the party!). Even with a movie like this, that they ...

Why filmmakers feel the need to give such obtuse, presumptuous names to their silly action movies, I'll never understand. ——— This week's episode is a cautionary tale about the dangers of expectations. Chris, Luciano, Matt and Spencer decided to watch and discuss Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre , the 2022 Jason Statham vehicle — and for the first time in a long while, their individual reactions to the movie were quite the mixed bag. Not since their deep dive into the DCEU movies have they had ...

Almost as big a mistake as watching it was. ——— Noted gluttons for punishment Chris, Luciano, Matt and Spencer decided it would be a good idea to do an episode about another anime adaptation, this time 2017's Ghost in the Shell , an adaptation of the 1995 anime movie — and if you've watched this dumpster fire, you know it was definitely the anime, not the manga, that they tried to adapt. I say "tried to adapt" because that's all they did: try. They did fail a lot, though, holy shit. Talk about m...

It's a toss up between you and Miles Bron. My money is on you, though. ——— Tired of watching only garbage movies, Luciano, Matt and Spencer decided to find something a bit more well-liked to watch, discuss and dissect this week (Chris is also tired of watching garbage movies, but he couldn't make this recording, unfortunately). To that end, they chose Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery , the kind-of-but-not-really sequel to Knives Out . Now, here's my personal conundrum: usually, this is where I ...

Seriously. I don't know exactly how, but I'm sure even the catering service on the set was wrong somehow. ——— Ah yes, live-action adaptions of anime series — no hellscape more torturous has ever been spawned by evil human minds. And Netflix's Fullmetal Alchemist is absolutely not an exception. Actually, it's a pretty impressive endeavour... in that it managed to replicate the anime in every possible wrong way while also leaving out most of the things that would have actually been good to port ov...

You're the boys' long-lost sibling, Wrong Lee. ——— Once again abandoned by their so-called "friends", Chris and Luciano had to suffer through the cringefest that is Double Dragon on their own. This movie is one of the most 90's thing to ever come out of the 90's. No, seriously. By the time I was done watching this movie, somehow I was wearing a bomber jacket and had a plaid flannel shirt tied around my waist. Which is even weirder than it sounds, because I'm pretty sure I had nothing but my birt...

The only right thing they did was cast Sean Connery. Whether accepting the role was the right thing for him to do, though, is very much debatable. ——— Once again Matt-less, Spencer takes over hosting (and nerd-wrangling) duties as he, Chris and Luciano discuss the early 2000's masterpiece that is The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen . What's that? Oh, sorry... it seems I've misspelled shitshow up there. There's very little to salvage in this movie, not gonna lie. But hey, at least they had the ...

After watching this god-forsaken movie, my brain was as nuked as Indy should have been inside that stupid fridge. ——— Another beloved franchise ruined by a shitty sequel. This time, a franchise near and dear to every nerd's heart: Indiana Jones . Chris, Luciano, Matt and Spencer tackled the atomic dumpster fire that is Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull , a name as obnoxious as the movie is bad. I won't even try to comment on it here; it would be too long a description, honestly....

The 2021 movie, I mean. But I'm sure you're very wrong about other entries of the franchise as well. ——— This week, the nerds went back to video-game movies and decided to watch and discuss Mortal Kombat . This one disappointed them less than most of the previous movies they've picked recently, but that's a really, really low bar. Be that as it may, however, they did have quite a few grievances with it. No surprise there, I know. Now, while a few of those grievances are pretty straightforward an...

Qualifying how wrong it is or what it might be wrong about would imply there's something right about it. There isn't. ——— Chris, Luciano, Matt and Spencer chose Jurassic World: Dominion for this week's episode. Why, I couldn't tell you. Quite honestly, I don't they even know. What I can tell you is that they violently regret it. How can an action movie with dinosaurs and giant flaming locusts in it be this boring? It has to be some sort of fucked up achievement to be able to accomplish that, rig...

And in other news, water is wet and the sky is blue. ——— Back to their full roster, the nerds thought it would be good to get back to the 2020's and chose to watch, dissect and brutalise Black Adam , the latest (at the time of this posting) installment in the DC Expanded Universe . Now, the pedants among you might be wondering why an episode about a DCEU movie isn't in the DCEU Movies season/series. The reason is quite simple: it's because fuck you, that's why. 😘 Back to this glass of warm wate...

We mean the movie. You know, the one that came out in 2000 and aged like a bowl of spoiled yogurt left out in the sun. ——— Another week, another early 00's movie being dissected by our favourite grumps. This week, they were feeling particularly masochistic, so they decided to rewatch and talk about Dungeons & Dragons , the (understandably) much-reviled "adaptation" of the tabletop RPG. Unfortunately, Matt couldn't be present for the recording, but I have it on good authority that he did (re-...

Because you obviously thought it was a shitty movie 20 years ago, and that opinion hasn't changed... right? Yeah, I'm sure that's right. Even you wouldn't be that wrong. ——— With Spencer finally back from wherever he had gone to (apparently, there's this thing called "work" he was busy with?), the nerds tackle yet another video-game movie. This time, they decided to go back a couple of decades and tackle one of the OG video-game adaptations, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider . OK, I'm not going to sugar c...

You're Wrong tackles a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie for the first time ever (surprising, I know)! Still Spencer-less, Chris, Luciano and Matt decided to tackle Thor: Love and Thunder , and when these nerds decide to talk about a movie a while after they've seen it, you know something about it ain't right. In this case, it's several somethings... starting with going in with (understandably) high expectations for a Thor movie helmed by the man responsible for Thor: Ragnarok and ending in whatev...

Video-game movies are usually hilariously bad, which also means they're a treasure trove of complaint fodder for curmudgeony nerds. Knowing this, and given that this month's loose theme is "shit that happened in 2022", Chris, Luciano and Matt (abandoned as they were by Spencer... again) decided it would be fun to watch (and bash on) Uncharted . Only they weren't ready for just how much they would have to complain about this one. That's not to say that they don't usually complain a lot — I'm not ...

Continuing the tradition they started last year, the nerds review their predictions for 2022 (spoiler alert: none of them could make a living as oracles... but at least that means that Spencer didn't have to become homeless to pay lost bets) and make new predictions for 2023 — most of which were about as weird and unlikely as the previous ones. They also decided to ditch the janky point system they used last time because... well, because it was janky as fuck. They still judged each other's predi...

This is the second and final part to You're Wrong 's latest game of Fiasco ! If you haven't listened to the first part ( season 1, episode 86 ) yet, go do that first. This thing is unhinged enough as it is, and I can't even imagine the amount of psychic damage it would do to someone listening to it without any context. Beckee (Chris), Jenna (Matt), Steve a.k.a. Jace (Luciano), Brodie (Spencer) and Theo (Andrew) all have a party to attend, even if the hostess of the party doesn't know about it ye...

It's time for another game of Fiasco , dear listeners! This time, the nerds invited their buddy Andrew to join in, and the scenario revolves around a shady high school attended by teens with very questionable morals, integrity and (quite frankly) sanity.

Jace (Luciano), Brodie (Spencer) and Theo (Andrew) as they try to navigate absurdly disfunctional relationships, see incredibly ill-conceived plans to fruition and survive their (un)surprisingly le...

Welcome to You're Wrong 's first tag-team battle royale! And what better subject to tackle on this first one than two of the most widely-recognised winter holidays in the world, amirite? 👀 For obvious reasons, the format for this one was slightly different from the usual battle royales: Matt acted solely as the Questioner (or, as he titled himself, the "Magistrate"), instead of being a participant as well; resident Jewish boys Luciano and Spencer were the obvious (and likely only safe) choice f...

Holiday season! A time of happiness, wholesomeness and fun... right? Well, not according to the Top 10 lists the nerds — together with Matt's better half, Laura — thrashed in this episode. Some were just plain bad, others were weird or nonsensical, but then towards the end things get... worrisome. Very worrisome. To the point where, likely for the first time ever , one of the massive tangents they usually go on felt entirely justified. 😟 Uh... happy holidays, I guess?

It's the last episode of T.A.X.E.S. , and there'd no better way to cap the series than with Demolition Man , one of the most entertaining and insane action flicks ever to come out of the 90's! And you know how it goes... if the movie is as bonkers as this one is, how much more so do you think the conversation these four had about it was? The answer is "a lot". A whole lot.

For the third installment in the T.A.X.E.S. series, the nerds decided to pick a less-known Wesley Snipes movie to discuss, and the one they went with was The Contractor ! Now, at this point, you might be asking yourself "isn't The Contractor a Chris Pine movie released earlier this year?". And you'd be right, it is. But that's not the movie I'm talking about. Nope, I'm talking about 2007's The Contractor , starring Lena Headey and Charles Dance (and Wesley Snipes, obviously). That's right, Cerse...

The T.A.X.E.S. series continues! This week, Chris, Luciano and Matt watched and discussed Rising Sun , a movie that juuuuust barely manages to stay on this side of being outright racist — and against two very different groups, to boot. The fact that it actually manages to stick to "only" heavily stereotyping those groups is quite impressive for an American-made movie about Japanese business culture shot in the early 90's. 😐 Also, seeing as the movie stars Sean Connery, this episode obviously fe...

This week, we're kicking off yet another special You're Wrong series: T.A.X.E.S. ! This one will see the nerds pay homage to an oft-forgotten star of action movies of the 90's, one Mr. Wesley Snipes (which makes the meaning of the acronym painfully obvious, of course). In this first episode, the movie they picked was Blade , truly a film that is a product of its time in many more ways than one. This is a movie that near and dear to their blackened, shrivelled hearts and they all had the nostalgi...

As Halloween Month draws to a close and we release an episode on Halloween Day proper, there really was no other way to cap it than to talk about Halloween , the 1978 John Carpenter movie that basically launched the entire "slasher" sub-genre of horror movies! The nerds were joined by first-time guest Matt (yes, they were very confused about it, too) — the only person in the group who 1) had already watched the movie several times and 2) actually likes the horror genre — to share their (very dif...

In what might well have been the best decision ever made by Warner Bros. in the history of space and time, they decided to put James Gunn (and Peter Safran, but be honest: did you even know the name before reading about it in the announcement? We certainly didn't) in charge of everything DC! The nerds were ecstatic about the news and decided it was bombastic enough that they needed to talk about it ASAP. Well... Luciano and Matt were, anyway. Chris and Spencer were so distraught that their homeb...

Halloween Month, week 4! For this one, the nerds decided to tackle some of the dumbest Halloween-related Top 10 lists they could find on the Internet and, to no one's surprise, the Internet delivered some weapons-grade, industrial-strength dumb. Those lists couldn't even get candy right, for fuck's sake. Also as expected, they had a lot of fun dunking on the lists... even if they weren't entirely sure what they were talking about. In more ways than one.

For the third episode of Halloween Month, Chris, Luciano, Matt and Spencer decided they wanted to be topical and watch a recently released horror movie. None of them are avid fans of the horror genre, but given the month's theme and the possibility of talking about something more current, they thought it was worth giving it a try. Alas, the movie they picked was Nope . 😑 In their defence, it is advertised as a horror movie, its trailers are certainly cut to make it seem like one and the previou...

Halloween Month continues! This week, the nerds focused their creative powers into coming up with... peculiar ... horror scenarios and stories, things you've never heard of or seen before. Or, rather, a bunch of things you probably have heard of and/or seen before, but mashed up together in very weird ways. Ways that don't always make 100% (or even like 75%) sense. Also, all of their brainpower was focused on coming up with these scenarios. Which means they had none to spare to ensure they staye...
