We made it! Another franchise in the bag! The Christmas vibes return and this time they brought Mickey Rooney with them! It's a fittingly batshit conclusion to what was an unexpectedly bizarre journey.
Wow...I don't think anything could have fully prepared us for this. This fourth entry in the series is so disconnected it seems impossible that it was ever meant to be a part of the franchise. It's time for Clint Howard getting oiled up by grandmas and cutting bugs in half. Welcome to Silent Night Deadly Night 4!
This is where the Christmas train officially starts to go off the rails in the Silent Night Deadly Night franchise! The Christmas vibes are lessening, the Killer Santas are all but gone and the acting is somehow getting worse. It's time for Silent Night Deadly Night 3!
Well would you look at that...it appears to be Garbage Day! It's time for the second entry in the franchise though mostly we end up watching the first movie again. What does that mean? Tune in and find out!
The fourth season officially begins and it's time for another Christmas franchise! Turns out there isn't a lot of those but we found a good one - Silent Night Deadly Night! Newcomer to the world of our podcasts, Tiffany, is here for what is sure to be an insane cinematic quest!
Be sure to grab every single one of the book's Tiffany is featured in that we discuss in this episode!
We did it! It's done! The Marine saga comes to an end (for now) with Close Quarters. Do things go out on a high note? You know how to find out!
With an original title like that, how could it be bad? Jake Carter's saga continues as this franchise moves further and further away from Marine-ing.
It's the first time we've had a follow-up movie with the same actor playing the same character. What kind of character progression will we get? How much deeper does the story of Jake Carter go? Nowhere at all? Mayyyyyyybe.
It's The Miz's time to shine in the third Marine entry! Actually it will continue to be his time to shine as he will remain the star throughout the remainder of the series. Is this an intriguing prospect? Is this movie just Die Hard on a rundown boat? Come find out!
John Cena is out! Ted Dibiase Jr is in! Theatrical releases are out too! We move on to the next Marine adventure and keep our fingers crossed that things are uphill from here.
It's finally time for season 3! Recorded in the summer, Rob and I make our way through the WWE action franchise The Marine. We begin with the only one to get a theatrical release, starring a then...unknown? Maybe? ...John Cena. Let the third season commence!
We did it! Season 2 is done! We watched seven Paranormal Activity movies! Thank you to AK for joining me on this journey as we wrap up with Next of Kin, a Paramount+ original with almost zero connection to anything else in the franchise! Hear that plus our final conclusive ranking!
Music: Drowning from Sonic the Hedgehog and Safe Heaven from Resident Evil Remake
This time we're going to see the activity! This originally closed out the franchise and was meant to wrap up the story from the previous five movies. How does it conclude and what's it like to finally the see the activity? You know how to find out!
Music: Witch Music from Left 4 Dead 2
It's time for a change up in the formula as we hit what many are calling the best entry in the Paranormal Activity series! Does the franchise benefit from introducing new characters and breaking away from the mythology stuff?
Music: Final Hours from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
All the activity has lead to this claims the poster. That's ignoring that there are three more movies after this one. And ignoring that all the activity has certainly not lead to this. Going into this one we knew that it has reputation as the worst entry in the franchise. Is that the case? Come find out!
Music: Gigyas Battle from Earthbound
It's the one you've all been waiting for! That's right - it's time for our boy the oscillating fan to make his franchise debut! You also get to hear our first major argument about the rankings (which always seems to happen after the third entry).
Music: Raccoon City Police Department from Resident Evil 2
It's only the second dose of the activity and we're feeling a little fatigued with the formula. We soldier on though because this one has a possessed pool cleaner so it can't be all bad!
Music: Promise (Reprise) from Silent Hill 2
It's finally time for another crop of episodes! We wanted something in the horror genre and rather than go with the obvious like Nightmare on Elm Street or Friday the 13th, we decided instead to endure all seven Paranormal Activity movies! Join AK and I as we watch, discuss and rank every entry in the franchise while playing some games along the way!
Music: Luigi's Mansion
Now we’re getting into more uncharted territory. Macaulay Culkin got old but that wasn’t going to stop the Home Alone train. It’s time for the last time the franchise would be worked on by John Hughes AND the last time it would play in theatres with Home Alone 3. Also witness the near end of Kim and I’s friendship!
Theme Song: Frappe Snowland from Mario Kart 64
Theatres may not have wanted Home Alone movies anymore, but there was still the world of television! Disney brought Home Alone to TV for this fourth movie that’s mostly a remake but also a sequel and it’s all just…just terrible.
Theme Song:Windmill Hills from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
