What ingredients are in a movie's failure? Let's do a postmortem on a trio of critical and commercial losers (Conan the Destroyer, The 13th Warrior, and Speed Racer). Perhaps thy're misunderstood victims of circumstance. Or maybe we're the ones committing crimes against cinema by defending them. Guests: Andrew & Jon.

Suffer through one final guest-less rant before the new season hits! The film is Executive Decision (1996), and the topic is suspense in action movies. Once again, the Host complains about new movies not being as well made as their (much) older counterparts. Big surprise.

In this solo article, I recommend two contrasting T.V. shows starring the versatile actor Lee Pace: Pushing Daisies (2007-2009) and Halt and Catch Fire (2014-2017). One is very sweet and the other is very bleak, so why not pair them together for an even better viewing experience?!

Another refined solo in-betweener episode, the Host shares a recommendation that came out of nowhere. Even if it sounds outside of your tastes at first (like it did his), give him a chance to convince you to watch The Purple Rose of Cairo.
