OMG You've Got to Watch This

Sorry this one is going up a bit late. I'm going to blame it on the quarantine. 

We dig deep into Hulk Hogan's first starring role as Rip in the wrestling masterpiece No Holds Barred!

From the IMDB: "Rip is the World Wrestling Federation champion who is faithful to his fans and the network he wrestles for. Brell, the new head of the World Television Network, wants Rip to wrestle for his network. Rip refuses and goes back to his normal life. Still looking for a way to raise ratings, Brell initiates a show called "The Battle of the Tough Guys", a violent brawling competition. A mysterious man, Zeus, wins the competition. This gets Brell to use him as an angle to get at Rip."

In the second half of this podcast, we wrap up talking about the modern masterpiece "Miami Connection"! Just like Mark and the boys, it'll take every ounce of our blood and courage, but we can't stop until we've completed the entire MIAMI CONNECTION!!!

Miami Connection was rescued from obscurity by a lucky eBay purchase and now it's available to stream on Amazon! Described by the South Florida Sun Sentinel as, "...a cocaine-war-rock-ninja-motorcycle-gang film, with aspirations of being an action-adventure musical", Miami Connection has it all: gang fights, romance, ninjas, bikers, rock stars and most importantly, taekwondo!

You really have to give the IMDB credit, they nail the description for The Legend of the Titanic: "A grandfather mouse tells his grandchildren the "real" story of the Titanic disaster, including himself, evil sharks, a giant octopus, and an evil whaling scheme."

Although the rest of us might be shocked to find out that there were essentially no fatalities on the ill fated Titanic, there are in fact a bunch of mice that know the truth. And the truth is that a prison shark tricked a massive octopus into throwing an iceberg at the Titanic as part of a whaling industry scheme. It may not be what you learned in school or from that James Cameron movie, but the mouse has the shark whistle to prove it.

You might think watching two animated Titanic movies in a row was a mistake, and you would be correct if you are worried about our fragile mental states. The good news (or bad news, depending on how you look at it)? The Legend of the Titanic has a sequel...

You wouldn't think that the Titanic sinking - a disaster that killed over 1,500 people - would make for a great kids movie, but apparently you'd be wrong, because there are at least two of them! In this episode, we talk about Titanic: The Legend Goes On... (yes, the ellipses are part of the title), a movie the feels that stealing is the greatest form of flattery. 

It's very possible that Colby tricked us into making this podcast just to get us to watch this movie. And it was probably worth it.

Fateful Findings is a movie about "A computer scientist/novelist reunites with his childhood friend and hacks into government databases, while facing the dire and fateful consequences of his mystical actions obtained as a child." I'll be honest, that doesn't even touch on how absolutely insane this movie is. There is magic, tragic accidents, filthy pools, crazy coincidences, desert ghosts, murder, a rash of suicides and what Brooke refers to as "a magic jellyfish". 

Does it make sense? Nope. Does the plot resolved at the end? Not even sort of! It is amazing? Absolutely. 

Welcome to the first episode of OMG You've Got to Watch this, the podcast were we find and discuss movies so bad they are actually good!

For our first episode, we are talking about Andy the Talking Hedgehog, a 2018 film "starring" Dean Cain of Lois & Clark fame and Sharknado actress Tara Reid. 

Andy the Talking Hedgehog is the story of  a girl named Lily that wishes for all animals (and plants) to be able to talk, a wish that is granted by her Fairy BFF. Hijinks ensue when two local robbers/handymen try and kidnap Lily's now-able-to-talk hedgehog Andy. And it only gets stranger from there, we promise.

Our rating? 5/10 OMGs
