S13 Ep642: The Royal Tenenbaums

“Adrian Brody is too good of an actor to be in a B-movie like this.” - Andrew On this week’s episode, we’re chatting about the outrageously late sequel, Predators! This is the one where a bunch of strangers get dropped into a Predators’ hunting arena planet and have to survive being hunted by our beloved, be-dreadlocked alien warriors! But, why can’t we get subtitles on these guys so we can see some Predator conversations? Why does the movie lose interest in its pretty cool original premise? Why is there an 11th hour serial killer reveal? And how do you put the great Laurence Fishburne in a two-second role like this? PLUS: Coming this fall to NBC, Predator: Cheers! Predators stars Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, Walton Goggins, Oleg Taktarov, Danny Trejo, Louis Ozawa, Mahershala Ali, and Laurence Fishburne as Ronald Noland; directed by Nimród Antal.

“It weighs 250 pounds!” - Chris on Seagal’s huge jacket in this movie On the season 16 premiere of We Hate Movies, we’re chatting about the outrageous Steven Seagal directorial debut, On Deadly Ground! Having first talked about this way back at our first ever live show taping, we’re getting our eyes on this one again in-studio over ten years later to ask the important questions like: How long did it take the costume department to craft Seagal’s huge fur snowsuit? Has Michael Caine ever looked more disgusting in a film? How satisfying is that Sven-Ole Thorsen torture job? And why in the world did they make us wait 70 minutes before giving us some sweet, sweet Billy Bob Thornton? PLUS: The VHS Trailer Game Cameo appearance to beat them all! On Deadly Ground stars Steven Seagal, Joan Chen, John C. McGinley, R. Lee Ermey, Shari Shattuck, Billy Bob Thornton, Richard Hamilton, Mike Starr, Sven-Ole Thorsen, and Michael Caine as Michael Jennings; directed, sort of, by Steven Seagal.
