Forgotten Failures

It all leads up to this. We’ve done Power Rangers episodes…. we’ve done episodes about movies… but until now, with one possible exception, there was not a Power Rangers movie. AND NOW, though some ma…

This week MikeD selected another classic of Canadian terror, filmed in a Mississauga office park. Who can brainwash better than a brain? Nobody. But so many other questions are raised. What is the br…

It’s all about brains over brawn in this episode. Apparently the Power Rangers represent “brains” and Bulk and the Putties are “brawn”. Meanwhile Jason takes his nephew to the beach, introduces him t…

Lindsay found another gem for MikeR and Darrill’s enjoyment. After 1 minute of the trailer we could tell it has the best dubbing since Catman In Boxer’s Blow, and the best kung fu action filmed in Wa…

When you defund schools, you end up with the Angel Grove high school play, featuring the school’s largest student as Rumpelstiltskin, and students forced to bring in their grandmothers’ antique spinn…

The reviews are in!

“I mean, I can understand why people, you know, don’t like it at all” – Darrill

“So simultaneously we have Digital Underground being really funny, and we have Chevy Chase fighting…

Jason. Tommy. If you want to win the inane spectacle of confusion that is the Team Ninja Finals, you’re going to need some Gung Ho. You’re going to need to learn how to Gung Ho. Rita and Finster and …

Trancers has so much great stuff. Time travel, Honda Elite scooters, Helen Hunt’s elf outfit, the punk version of Jingle Bells, Police Chief McNulty. But we just think something’s missing. And that t…

It’s time for the Angel Grove High School Masquerade. Everyone’s in the costume you would expect, except Alpha 5 who is attracting ALL the ladies in his Alpha 5 costume. Rita and Finster spend most o…

Many years ago… three people, and some other people, watched a movie called Megaforce. And this, more than any other ridiculous movie, inspired them, and one other person, to create what is now known…

In this episode Kimberly and Tommy share a harrowing experience (watching Putties rough up Kimberly’s award-winning miniature parade float), which only deepens their burgeoning romance. We discuss ho…

As Ep 50 approaches, Lindsay, Darrill and Awesome Mike chose this week’s movie via Random Movie Generator. And we won’t tell you what it is until you listen! Hint: It’s the greatest Danish superhero …

We watched Alpha 5’s Magical Xmas! How is this Christmas special so utterly terrible? It’s like Power Rangers for an audience of four-year-olds in 1890. Marvel as we discuss:

• Alpha 5 and Zordon’s dr…

Big shakeup in Rita’s management team: Finster may be out of a job because Babboo created this week’s weapon, a potion turning Billy and Kimberly into those most hated of all creatures: Punks. MikeD,…

The cameos burst forth in this tour de force debut from Insane Clown Posse’s cinematic department. Dolemite … Rerun … Mick Foley … the Misfits hanging out in a donut bar … not one but BOTH Jerky Boys…

Spiders, statues, HipHopKido, and Billy’s new pet mouse add up to a somewhat nondescript episode.  Meanwhile Darrill, MikeD and MikeR discuss how the Green Ranger is like a relief pitcher, how the Bl…

True 90s Kids rejoice! It’s the movie you think you saw on SNICK at Halloween 2000, but really you just heard people talking about it years later. As a movie, Cry Baby Lane is an excellent episode of…

There are movies with excessive narration — there are movies with obnoxiously excessive narration — and at some point, it goes beyond narration into full-fledged DVD commentary. Watching Bullseye! fo…

Babboo and Squatt continue undermining Finster with the glorious monster you see before you. Toka from Ninja Turtles II was cool, but he’d be cooler with a traffic light. Meanwhile Zordon teaches Tri…

The credited director of Don’t Be Scared is Master P. Before watching, we figured a real director made the movie and then Master P took credit. After watching… we are sure Master P really directed th…
