Exceptionally Bad Podcast Hundreds of movies are released every year. Some are good, some are great. And many of them are really really bad.

We seek out those rare gems that are so exceptionally bad, they’re actually good - at least when you watch them with friends.

When misunderstood artists, cat spirits, and deadly cosmetics collide the resulting chemical compound is Catwoman. Since the movie posters don’t come with a hazardous material warning, allow us to provide that warning.

Cowboys and aliens was a real head scratcher of a movie. It has ALL the ingredients for greatness: good actors, a good director, a good cinematographer, fun premise, etc. unfortunately the kitchen staff must have went home early because all we got was a big slice of forgettable pie.

Ever wonder what happens when a reserved Englishman encounters nearly every stereotype of the American south while trying to appraise a Renoir? Wonder no more! Stars and Bars will answer that question and leave you with so many more!

As we reach the 4th season of Season IV:The season of four seasons, we turn our attention to those bad movies made by actors who are generally accepted as good actors.

The Mummy should have been great. It’s 1999 predecessor is widely beloved. It has the star power of Tom Cruise and Russel Crowe (and…Jake Johnson). It also has six credited writers. It has a novice director (not always a bad thing). It suffers from “setting up sequels syndrome”. Tune in to see if this caption missed anything.

If you’ve been to the doctor recently and the doctor is worried that your media diet is lacking puns and explosions, look no further than our most recent guilty pleasure. Last Action Hero has everything you need for a well balanced movie diet, puns, questionable acting, characters breaking the 4th wall, glass eyes, and cinema’s best ever portrayal of Hamlet! Nate may or may not own the soundtrack

It’s one of modern society’s most heated and divisive debates. Kirk vs. Picard. How many marriages, friendships, business ventures, and international treaties have broken down over this? Too many to count. What if we told you you can enjoy both? Or that you could see these two captains of the Enterprise team up to take on Sting’s body double (Malcolm McDowell) in a poorly choreographed fight on the desert planet from central casting? You can have this and more in Star Trek: Generations. See Data get an emotion chip that almost immediately causes a malfunction. See most of the crew have almost nothing to do. See some klingons that are comic relief for reasons unknown.

Professor X and the gang are back at it again! When a mutant whose mutation is the power to cancel out other mutations(try saying that three times fast), big pharma is quick to synthesize his genome to create a mutant conversion therapy drug! Turns out the President is still a bit salty from that one time Nightcrawler tried to assassinate him, so the government makes special weapons to deploy syringes of the “cure” to fight rogue mutants (not Rogue specifically, but you get it). This doesn’t sit well with Dr. Frasier Crane, I mean Beast, who soft resigns from his cabinet position to join the x-men. A little more concerning is that Magneto and his merry band of ne’er-do-wells also dislikes this. Hijinks ensue. Oh and Jean Gray comes back from the healing waters of Alkali Lake, but she’s kind of lost her marbles. Oh and she kills Cyclops and the only person who seems to care is Wolverine who hates Cyclops. Yeah, this one is a hot mess.

Do you love conflict diamonds? Do you prefer North Korea to South Korea? What about ice palaces, invisible cars, or cameos by Madonna? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you’ll love Die Another Day! You may also need therapy.

Join 007 as he surfs his way to North Korea, makes the ill-advised decision to include figs in his alone time with Halle Berry, and prevents nefarious usage of the world’s biggest space based solar panel!

We’re taking a slightly different approach to part two of season 4. We’re examining the worst films of major franchises. Are these films as “bad” as is commonly held? Are these films exceptionally bad?

Our first entry in this series is the much maligned fourth Indiana Jones movie. Russians and aliens and Mutt, oh my! With N***s and religious artifacts a thing of the past, Indy puts his archaeological skillz to the test to help uncover ancient alien future tech in the New World and picks up a family along the way!

Can’t decide which rom com to watch this Valentine’s Day season because you can’t decide which rom com actor you love the most? Are you bored by that tired old story telling trope of one A plot and maybe a small B and C plot?

If your answer is yes to those questions, Garry Marshall has got you fam! In true “box of chocolates” style, Valentine’s Day contains a wide assortment of characters and plots. Also like a box of chocolates, you’re not going to love all the pieces and you will feel instant regret from consuming the whole thing.

When a country star and an inept cab driver are forced to work together to win a bet against the world’s sleaziest club owner, you expect them to pair as well as oil and water, or cheese and chalk. To your surprise, they make an unexpectedly pleasant pairing, like ice cream and French fries! Tune in to see if even the great Dolly Parton can make Sylvester Stallone a great country singer (spoiler: she can’t).

Hey listeners, we’ve been on hiatus because bro-ducer Danny has been touring with his band! They did one number at one gig anyway. Does that constitute a tour?

We’ll be back in the new year with some fun ideas for season 4!

Have you been feeling resentful, sad, or angry in the presence of pink hand soap or shampoo? Does said cleaning product respond to negative emotions, or conversely does the cleaning product dance obsessively to “Higher and Higher”? If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, don’t bother calling customer service. Your problem is now supernatural. Give the Ghostbusters a call and they will take control.

In the annals of pugilism, there have been several notable bouts: Ali vs Frazier, Mayweather vs Pacqiao, Tyson vs Holyfield.
But did you know that Todd Howard single-handedly led Hamilton University to a state championship in every weight class?! Since there were no rules prohibiting lycanthropes from competing (see, the 80s WERE progressive!), he was able to compete unimpeded. He may be a werewolf, but he never bit off anyone’s ear. Is Teen Wolf Too bad or is it exceptionally bad?

In a “clever” homage to the original Jurassic Park, Colin Trevorrow follows the InGen philosophy of splicing DNA from other sources to fill in gaps in the dino DNA sequence. Will this splicing of tropes, script ideas, and plot lines be enough to make this movie exceptionally bad? Listen to this week’s pod to find out.
