MPM: Ep. 188 - Congratulations! You Did Fine!

The Sandlot | Major League - Hello everyone! Welcome to our last summer edition of Motion Picture Meltdown! We finish out the summer months by going through a couple movies about America's favorite summer past-time, baseball! This episode, Dehart, Phil, Cheats and myself take on a couple of classic baseball flicks by roasting through Major League as well as The Sandlot. In this episode, we figure out that Dehart's favorite thing to do outside as a kid was be The Predator, we turn The Sandlot into a David Fincher movie, and we can't figure out why everyone is so happy at the end of Major League. Enjoy!

We go through the comedy "classic" Reitman/Murray film Meatballs as well as a newer take on comedy with a roast through Wet Hot American Summer. In this episode you will hear us all talk about about what fantasy camp counselor we would pick, we describe the mullet scale for Dehart, and we all get a little uncomfortable by Bill Murray. Enjoy!

Lawnmower Man | Lawnmower Man 2 - Hey everyone! Welcome to another episode of Motion Picture Meltdown! This week we continue trucking through our summer theme with a couple of..virtual reality movies?

In this episode, you'll hear Cheats, Phil, Dehart and myself talk about our first encounters with virtual reality, we talk about how the Lawnmower Man is just welfare Pinhead, and Philip goes on another tirade about...well, you guessed it...Point Break. Enjoy!
