    We're going full icky this week by covering a film by the recently deceased Hollywood icon Chuck Norris. Yes, we tried to avoid memes and jokes and, yes, we failed. Over 120 gratuitous kills and zero sleeves. Not a bad ratio for a movie in the 80s. Oh, and an armadillo out-acts most of the cast.

    With The Mummy Returns returning to theaters for a special 25th-anniversary this weekend, we thought it prudent to dust off our own take on the franchise from several years ago. Though not a well preserved as a mummy, this episode still has some life in it and quite frankly we're too busy getting next Monday's release ready to do our job as podcasters properly. Until then, please enjoy Brendan Fraser's energy and Rachel Weisz's face. Emphasis on the latter

    This week we go back to a big one, but as we learn, size doesn't matter. In fact a few minutes we wont even be matter. Come back to glorious 1997 where movies were bigger, better, and could star Will Smith without the audience wanting to punch him in the face. Speaking of jerks, stick around to the end when the boys explore other celebs that we used to admire, but now not so much. Wonderfully petty and indefensible.
