There are many disappointing movies out there and then there are movies that are just the worst but...sometimes it's not that simple. In fact, some terrible movies are more entertaining than good ones, so we decided to have an experiment based on a suggestion from one of our previous guests, Josef Wilke, where we recommend terrible films to each other that we enjoy because they are so bad, they are good to us. It led to some interesting reactions...so join us as we suffer through these horrendous films and attempt to cope with laughter. We also discuss Everything Everywhere All At Once, which we LOVED.Films Discussed: Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Island of Dr. Moreau, An American Werewolf in Paris, The Wicker Man (2006), Catwoman2022

Who doesn't like a good Western? After our conversation last time about The Yellow Light Trilogy we were intrigued by another community proclaimed trilogy referred to as the 2007 Western Trilogy (There Will Be Blood, No Country For Old Men, and The Assassination of Jesse James). Tune in and grab some popcorn as we discuss the trilogy that delves into the darkest elements of America, old and new. We also saw Jackass 4 and Netflix's All of Us Are Dead, which turned out to be a pretty great Korean zombie show.(Correction: In the podcast I say I saw There Will Be Blood in 2007 but it turns out it was in 2008. The film was released in December 2007, so it took time for its DVD release. I remembered later that the Halo tournament was in 2008 so I had to be wrong so, my apologies. - Fortune)Projects discussed in order: Jackass 4, Netflix's All of Us Are Dead, There Will Be Blood, The Assassination of Jesse James, and No Country For Old Men

Sometimes Reddit REALLY comes through, especially in this case. The Yellow Light trilogy was nicknamed, we think, by a couple of people on reddit years ago. It consists of three movies that aren't actually a trilogy, but feel like they could be, and they feature crime neo noir plots with Los Angeles lights painting the background every step of the way. These lights help inform the cinematography, hence The Yellow Light Trilogy (Drive, Nightcrawler, and Collateral). Join us as we delve into these three wonderful films and boil down which one of them is our favorite.Films Discussed: Collateral, Drive, Nightcrawler, and Guillermo Del Toro's Nightmare Alley
