- Love the pod
I love this podcast I just wish they didn’t the last airbender. When i first heard of this podcast the first movie that came to mind was the last airbender movie and they won’t do it for some reason.

Excellent podcast with a couple of friends who not only find the best in mediocre or poor movie, but actually make compelling arguments for the good in them.
It's very easy to lisen to and there are some good laughs to be had. This podcast is fantastic light entertainment that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Even though it seems easier to tear a “bad” movie down, Best Of The Rest showcases the best intentions of the film makers.
The hosts have a great banter, and the show has my favorite new thing in podcasting, “The Mark Strong Award”(which showcases the best acting in the film). Some movies have obvious MVPs, but The Mark Strong can go to anyone in the cast bringing their A game.
Give this show a listen. The positivity might just feel good for a change.
Apple Podcasts5TickleFluffyUnited States4 years ago - Great show!
I’ve listened to every episode that I’ve seen the movie for and have been watching movies just so I can listen to the best of the rest crew.
I was worried initially that there wouldn’t be much depth of conversation without the ability to criticize the movies, but those fears were unfounded!
Always a great convo and always leaves me feeling better than when I started.

I loved this episode! My older brother and I rented this movie shortly after it came out. I was about 20, and he was about 30. We weren’t very close and we’re a little awkward around each other. We watched this movie 2 or 3 times in a row late at night, laughing hysterically and bonding. Since then it has been one of my favorite movies! I loved your review!
