Blade is an absolute staple of not just action movies but comic book movies in general. Without it, we would truly not have the Marvel Cinematic Universe we do today (for better or for worse) and the fellas absolutely loved this movie. So put on your bulletproof vest, sharpen your katana, roll up some garlic, and listen to About That Action tackle one of the best comic book movies ever made.

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters came out in 2013 to more or less middling reviews but the fellas think they were DEAD wrong! Sit back and listen to what the boys thought of this box office smash hit yet somehow criminally overlooked action/adventure. 

The Boys cover an absolute action classic with Highlander. Unanimously loved by all 3 of the fellas, this movie does not have the expected Goldie Locks scenario of opinions like we have come to love and appreciate. This movie is a banger through and through and even on a time crunch, they deliver one hell of an episode. So sit back, assemble your sword, do some pushups, and crank up that volume for About That Action.

On episode 2 of the fantasy block of films, the gang covers Solomon Kane from 2010. Although not considered a fantasy classic by any means, still an overall solid sword and sorcery tale of a former violent pirate turned holy man in search of a girl he swore to protect. So pop in those headphones, sharpen your cutlas, and prepare for some grim fantasy with About That Action.

Kicking off the fantasy block of films was Marsh's suggestion for 13th Warrior. A film about an Arab man living amongst Vikings and helping them to vanquish a seemingly impossible evil. This movie was overall favored by the group and now YOU the listener can find out why. So sit back and turn up those headphones, crack your knuckles, sharpen your blade, and get ready to be About That Action.

Unfortunately for the squad, we watched Expendables 4, but luckily for listeners it ended up being a much more fun conversation. The final installment of The Expendables unfortunately crashes the plane after riding the high of 3 but the fellas' collective frustration shines through with one of the most EXPLOSIVE and CONTROVERSIAL episodes to date. Join the pod as they discuss potential nicknames, rewrites, and tons of other nonsense on this weeks episode of About That Action.

The fellas are getting close to finishing out the Expendables block with a high point for The Expendables 3. Although made to be PG-13, it more than makes up for the lack of blood and guts with far more interesting dialogue and fleshed out characters. Action movies are often times defined by the villain and Expendables 3 delivers with (the otherwise level headed and kind) Mel Gibson as Conrad Stonebanks. Tune in to the episode to find out what makes Conrad a worthy adversary for Barney Ross and how the new class of Expendables adds up to the ones we all know and love. All that and more on About That Action!

In the follow up to the blockbuster hit The Expendables, they raise the bar in every way.

Pop in those earbuds, load up the barbell, and listen to this high octane coverage on About That Action.

In 2006, WWE productions joined the war effort to put out a movie that would help the army smash through its recruitment goals for the year and that movie was The Marine (purely correlative). The fellas from About That Action join forces to discuss this absolutely bizarre "action" fest. Tom, Josh, and Marsh all go full blown Goldie Locks and the three bears about this film for your listening entertainment. As John Cena runs through the swamps and does stuff that ultimately doesn't matter at all, you can sit back and listen to the fellas argue about whether this is worth the watch or not.

In this episode, the boys finally round out the Universal Soldier series with Day of Reckoning. A hard turn from the fun, fast, and simple vibe of the original, this movie deals with heavy themes and even heavier violence. With a complete script flip making JCVD's character the main antagonist of the story, we meet a new main character hell bent on revenge for the murder of his family.

Though its a far cry from the original, this fresh coat of paint was well received by About That Action.

In this episode, the fellas discuss the 2010 hard hitting sleeper classic Universal Soldier: Regeneration. The third installment (second cannon) in the much overlooked action classic franchise.
