With video game adaptations raking in big coin at the box office, adapting the popular Borderlands series to screen seemed a no-brainer. But even pairing a puzzling high-profile cast—featuring Cate Blanchette, Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee Curtis and Jack Bl... more

  • Excellent insight into financial/critical failures

    The concept is that simple, and the hosts provide context for why exactly these films may have failed despite in many cases - like Masters of the Universe - being genuinely great. There’s a fairly lengthy recap not because it goes into excruciating detail but because they’re peppered with important background or personal stories, but never straying too far off-topic. Confusing plot elements are given plenty of room to be discussed, dissected, and either figured out or written off as nonsense. It... more

  • Great Pod

    Fun podcast and because they are talking about flops, it’s not just about films that have been talked to death. Recommend.

  • What a fun show!

    I love movies and I'm always bummed when a movie I was looking forward to turns out to be a dud. BUT I think taking the time to talk about why they flopped gives them a second life--how fun is that?!?!

  • Raise ‘Em Up!

    I’ve loved this podcast from the very first episode I ever heard. Sebastian and Jennifer have created a home base celebration for deep dives of beloved blockbusters that totally blew it - but that’s what’s so beloved about these mooovies! The discussions are scholarly, surprising with what they add to the conversation, and even inclusive, if not just by their freakin’ hilarious chats and all the good people they bring in for them. They don’t bring these movies down. They raise them up like the t... more

  • Like Watching Movies With My Nerdy Friends

    I love Tentpole Trauma, the podcast where box office flops are examined like a hilarious cinematic post-mortem. The hosts are so funny and it’s awesome to listen as they dissect “so bad it’s good” cult classics or big studio failures. For me it’s like hanging out with some really funny nerds who love movies as much as I do, and tearing them apart while we laugh ourselves silly! Highly recommend!
