Troy and Brad bid farewell to the cinematic “bombs” of 2024 with an ambitious journey into the American frontier. Their latest viewing: Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1, a three-hour epic Western directed by none other than Kevin Costner. Banking on his vision, Costner poured $38 million of his own money into the project, envisioning it as the first chapter in a four-part saga that weaves together the lives of diverse characters navigating the rugged American Midwest. However, whispers of production drama have cast shadows over Horizon’s future, raising the question: will it ascend as a masterpiece or be remembered alongside Costner’s infamous Waterworld and The Postman? Big thanks to from for noting this week’s show and jumping in on the conversation!

Troy and Brad roundhouse-kick their way into the dojo this week to honor the undisputed champions of 2024’s action-packed film scene. The dynamic duo starts by throwing down their top five action movies of the year, filled with all the judo chops, flying kicks, and bone-crunching brawls that 2024 had to offer.
Once the dust settles, they turn their fists of fury toward Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In—a Hong Kong martial arts masterpiece that delivers more punches than a Jackie Chan highlight reel.
If you crave flying kicks, hard-hitting punches, and non-stop adrenaline, this episode is a must-listen. The Not A Bomb podcast is ready to sweep the leg of any action movie fan! 👊

Our journey through the biggest bombs of 2024 continues with the 5th installment in a beloved franchise that is not focused on the series protagonist, “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.” A prequel to a 9 year old movie of a 40 year old franchise without its original title character and recasting the new title character? Was this thing destined to bomb? Did the critics get it right but audiences miss out? Download the episode and hear our thoughts! As a special treat, we have Kevin from to help out with the discussion!

Look out, Vault Hunters, ‘cause the “Bombs of 2024” have “clapped” their way over to Pandora for the hot mess express that is... Borderlands! Based on the billion-dollar game series we all know and love (or, like, kinda tolerate), this movie decides to take everything that makes Borderlands epic—yes, I’m talkin’ guns, humor, awesome visuals—and toss it all in a dumpster fire! Hope you came for laughs? NOPE! Hoping for gun-toting, loot-lovin’ action? AS IF! How about jaw-dropping visuals? PSYCH!
But don’t worry! Not a Bomb is here to help you trudge through this nightmare. We’ve got the awesome Mike McGranaghan from “The Aisle Seat” joining in on the chaos. Can this movie offer anything to the fans? Or is it just another facepalm on Pandora? You’ll have to tune in to find out!

Wanted to share some pics from this weekend. Had a chance to go to 12th anniversary Urban Action Showcase and Expo in New York. Of course the highlight was seeing “The Last Dragon” with the cast and crew in a packed theater! Tabs and I also got to meet Taimak, Chris Murney, Mike Starr, Ron Van Clief, Fred “The Hammer” Williamson, and the amazing Gloria Hendry! Oh, we also got to see “The Matrix” in the world’s largest 4DX theater as well as a screening of “Black Belt Jones”. Have to say…probably the best movie going experience ever. All of this took place on 42nd street near Times Square. Big thanks to John Nance and his wife, Mia, for going along!

The entire premise of our little podcast has been to highlight the underseen and under appreciated films. The next two months, we are taking a look at films in 2024 that flew under the radar or bombed at the box office. We are kicking things off with a film that is definitely one of the best movies we’ve seen in 2024, “Last Stop in Yuma County.” has crafted one of the best neo-noir films in the last few decades. In fact, if you never listen to the podcast but go out to buy or watch this film, we’d be totally ok with that outcome! GO SEE THIS FILM! If you have time after, download the episode and hear us gush over this amazing work of art!

As spooky season kicks into gear, Troy and Brad dive into “The Exorcist: Believer,” the supernatural horror flick of 2023. Directed by David Gordon Green, this sixth entry in the “Exorcist” series treats horror fans like they’ve never seen a well-crafted scare. It’s mind-boggling how a movie can both rehash tired horror clichés and attempt to explore themes of faith with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. Simply put, this film is a disaster. Troy and Brad pull no punches, tearing apart its glaring flaws and expressing their outright disdain for Green’s direction. Save yourself the frustration—skip this misfire and opt for a horror film that respects the genre, your intelligence, and your time. Do, however, download the episode and listen!

Spooky season has arrived, and what’s more haunting than films that flopped at the box office? We’re kicking off Spooktober with Troy’s favorite actor, Tom Cruise, and his 2017 fantasy action-adventure The Mummy. Joined by frequent guest Sammy of the GGTMC, the crew gets “wrapped up” in a lively discussion. Troy quizzes the gang on their favorite Cruise movies (no shame here!), and they dive deep into some lesser-known gems from the actor’s career. Eventually, they unravel the mystery of The Mummy itself—packed with all the classic Tom Cruise charm. With a mere 15% on Rotten Tomatoes and the title of Cruise’s lowest-rated film, could The Mummy actually be “Not A Bomb”? Tune in and find out!

Sadly, Listener Request Month has reached its final full moon, but don’t worry—Troy and Brad are still howling with excitement for the last suggestion. Dedicated pack member Philip sank his fangs into Wolfen, a horror crime thriller often mistaken for a werewolf flick. But surprise—Wolfen is more of a police procedural than a howling night of lycanthropic mayhem. The guys sniff out why Wolfen didn’t quite sink its claws into audiences, bask in the coolness of Gregory Hines, and even sink their teeth into 10 horror films they’re gearing up to devour in October.

Listener Request Month takes a little pause as the guys gather in the same room to record a special episode with Jose and Alex from . To celebrate this momentous occasion, there was only one film that could do it justice: The Substance. Equal parts Cronenberg and Showgirls, The Substance stands apart from anything previously covered on the podcast—and with its current box office flop, it’s officially podcast-worthy. The hosts also dive into their favorite finds from Baltimore Comic-Con and share thoughts on the movies they’ve been watching lately. So, grab a seat, relax, and tune in for conversations about fame, body image, chewing sounds, and the ever-debated pronunciation of Demi Moore’s name.

Just recorded a new episode with a special guest!

03/09/2024

Had a really fun time chatting with the guys on the "Not a Bomb" podcast last week! This one's audio only, and somewhere toward the end (if memory serves) I actually add a bit of a sneak peak at what I'm working on for the upcoming vinyl pre-order at some point toward the end!

It opens with a clip of a cool old Bowie interview that's very fitting considering what he talks about in the clip.

Get ready for an electrifying bonus episode of Not A Bomb! This time, the guys dive into an epic conversation with the multi-talented Rocket Stahr, who’s not just a writer, director, editor, animator, and composer but also the creative genius behind the mind-blowing 13-year passion project, Death of a Rockstar. Imagine the psychedelic wonder of Yellow Submarine colliding with the campy charm of Rocky Horror Picture Show, mixed with the rock opera spectacle of Tommy and the grandiosity of Jesus Christ Superstar. This vibrant, audacious film is a thrilling love letter to classic rock ‘n’ roll and 20th-century American pop culture, and it’s an experience you absolutely need to see to believe!
