Apologies to the ecologically and morally-responsible vegans and vegetarians in our audience, but today's episode is an exploration of cinematic meats, as Elliott takes us through one of the least-essential top ten lists in movie criticism history!Our live show, Three Men and a Hallie, is still viewable for ticket-holders (or new purchasers) thru August 18! If you missed it, there's still time!

Elliott long claimed we would NEVER do the Garbage Pail Kids Movie, due to its extreme unpleasantness, but it only took a live show and the participation of our most GPK-pushing pal, Mr. Griffin Newman, of the excellent Blank Check podcast to break his resolve. What other core principles can we make Elliott discard? Keep listening in the years to come, and we'll see!Also, for all those Hallie fans out there, remember that our next streaming show “Three Men and a Hallie” debuts tomorrow, with tickets on sale now!

No, not Spider-Man. He's a menace! A menace, I say!Instead we got the amazing opportunity to talk with the REAL Tom Holland -- the one 80s kids will remember -- the writer, director, or writer-director of horror movies and thrillers including Child's Play, Fright Night, Thinner, Class of 1984, Cloak & Dagger, Scream For Help, and Psycho II. As three nerds who grew up with this stuff, you can imagine how excited we were to talk to Mr. Holland, and he was just a delight! We hope you enjoy it as much as we all did.

We had to do it. We had to return to that ol' Rebel Moon to see what happened to all our favorite space pals, like... uh... there was the one guy who trained like, a bird dragon? And, um... Lady Sword-haver? And Charlie Hu-- no, wait, he was killed in the first one because he was a traitor. There's definitely a Scargiver in this one, though. That one we're 100% on. Oh Zack Snyder. We wish we could quit you. But like, for serious. We're very tired.Have you subscribed to our new NEWSLETTER, "Flop Secrets?"
