But as is usually the case, a terrible movie makes for a fantastic conversation!

Homicides Hooters and Hockey Masks: Jason X

Masterpiece or Train Wreck?
A love letter to the franchise or a middle finger to the legacy?
Is this an intentional comedy or an accidental tragedy?
Do the Binge Buddies actually get to the answers on any of these questions? Not really, but they have a ton of fun trying!!

Jason Goes to Hell is no one’s favorite Jaons movie (for the most part) but the Binge Buddies have a blast breaking it down!

SNL: Coneheads (1993)
Greetings Earthlings. We come to you from the planet Remulak to provide mass quantities of discourse around the film known as Coneheads, starring Dan Aykroyd, Jane Curtin, and a myriad of fun SNL cameos. It’s a movie that’s held up remarkably well, and has in fact gotten better as the years have progressed. There’s an earnestness to the absurdity that becomes endearing and it’s hard not to fall in love with this picture as you watch it. Can you believe that people didn’t care for this movie when it came out? We’re a bit surprised, too.
For our Where Have They Been Doing segment we go back and watch a few of the original Conehead sketches to get a sense of the movie’s origins, and we gotta say that the movie did a great job adapting to the big screen.

John Singleton: Poetic Justice (1993)
This week in our John Singleton retrospective we’re discussing his sophomore film Poetic Justice, starring Janet Jackson and Tupac Shakur. There’s a lot here to like. In fact, there’s a lot here in general. The film doesn’t feel nearly as focused as his previous but despite that feels very unique and very personal. The leads do marvelous work here, especially Tupac, and for those of us who are only familiar with him by name it’s enough to make us want to look into the rest of his career.
We also briefly discuss Abduction, starring Taylor Lautner. It’s not good, but John Singleton does what he can and his direction makes you wish that he had been given a Bond or Bourne film instead of this well-directed clunker.
