MPM: Ep. 193 - Seven Degrees From Tim Thomerson

Constantine | Blade - Hey everyone! Welcome to another episode of Motion Picture Meltdown! This week we rap up Not-So Superhero September by continuing to transition along the darker path from superheroes to our October horror theme. This week we roast through a couple of movies that we all seemed to enjoy when we were younger...one proving we were all dumb, and one giving us a pleasant surprise. In this episode, we go through Marvel's Blade as well as DC Comics' Constantine. You will hear Dehart, Phil, Cheats and myself talk about one of our favorite satans in film, we pick apart Keanu Reeves' career and discuss exactly how good or bad of an actor he actually is, and we just won't let up on that Catholic Church. Enjoy!

MPM: Ep. 189 - The Elektra Boogaloo

Elektra | Catwoman - Hey everyone! That time has come again where we as a podcast jump into the world of terrible superhero movies that are thrust upon us like a bucket of hot garbage water. We kick off this month with Motion Picture Meltdown's Not-So Superhero September! To start things off, we decide to bring in some diversity among the superhero sexes, as we roast through two of the most poorly received superhero movies of all time. Cheats, Dehart Phil and myself decide to take one for the team and roast through the 2005 follow-up to Daredevil in Jennifer Garner's Elektra as well as possibly the biggest shit that Hollywood has ever spent one-hundred million dollars on, Catwoman. In this episode, we discuss what terrible useless superpower we would all have, Dehart thinks that Catwoman is some kind of embezzlement scam, and the more we talk about Elektra, the more pissed Phil gets. Enjoy!
