2024-10-2602:13:07

Did you ever hear the story about when Skyler Queen and Will Ackerman reviewed the 1998 slasher film Urban Legend? How about how they discussed Canadian filming locations?

Ian Wilson returns with a brand new Flickchart Forum, assessing the directorial career of Sam Raimi. Assisted by Desmond Reddick and Dave Probert, the panel ricochet from Raimi's early dealings in low budget horror to more mainstream 90s fare, the first Spider-Man films to grace the silver screen, and his more sporadic output since then. What will top the master list, and which films prove to be the most contentious? Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Will and Skyler celebrate Christmas with the rarely seen 1995 Muppet's Christmas specials Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree.

Episode 1144 - Scream VI

Episode 1144 - Scream VI

2023-11-2303:13:52

It's been a year, so Skyler and Will are here to discuss Scream VI. Is this the most terrifying call from Ghostface yet or just another film in a franchise? As they try to answer this, they also take time to discuss this year's TIFF, talk Twist Openings, and answer some geeky horror questions. CORE FOUR! Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Skyler and Will celebrate Halloween by talking about three episodes of Archie's Weird Mysteries: "Scarlet Night," "I Was a Teenage Vampire," and "Halloween of Horrors." Along the way, they also talk about the ABC Saturday Morning Schedule in the 90s, the ins and outs of DiC's animation, and what you can and can't get away with on a kid's show. And hey, this is the 18th f**king anniversary of The Show! Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Episode 1142 - AEW in 2023

Episode 1142 - AEW in 2023

2023-09-1803:22:52

It's been a year since Ian and Mike spoke about AEW, and holy hell so much has happened in those 12 months. Brawls, biting, singles fights, chokes, and thrown monitors! And that's just the backstage drama. In front of the cameras we've had, amongst other pay-per-views, All In (2023) at Wembley Stadium. Listen to Ian's live recap of that massive show, and stay for who the guys think will be next in line for all the gold. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
The Flickchart Forum returns to chart how the Star Wars franchise has gone from having an obvious worst movie 40 years ago to a less obvious worst movie after the release of eight more movies since the original trilogy. Ian Wilson is joined by Michael David Sims and Dan Toland to go over the three trilogies of The Skywalker Saga and the two Star Wars Stories from the late 2010s. Is the obvious film the best? Is the prequel trilogy responsible for the worst film? And if the answer to both questions is yes, what is the order of all the films in between? Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Hannah and Jim opine about the new DC TV and movie announcements from James Gunn, and talk about Golden Record by Rosemary Valero-O'Connell. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
In the first episode of 2023, Dan and Mike look at the short-lived Birds of Prey TV show from 2002, then they gush over Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn). Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Dan and Mike provide a commentary track for one of the wildest episodes of GI Joe: A Real American Hero: "Cold Slither," the Reagan-era anti-metal episode that is somehow actually metal AF. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
The three-part project of the 2022 Greatest Britons culminates with Ian and Tom revealing the ultimate list of their 100 Greatest Britons, the ones who just missed out, and the entrants from 2002 who didn't have a hope in Hell of remaining on the ballot 20 years later. We learn which entries inspired the hosts to do more research, and exactly to what end the 2022 picks are more enlightened in terms of gender, ethnicity, and nationality than those of 2002.

Thanks to Donovan Morgan Grant we have three roundtable interviews with the cast and creators of Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm: 1. Dana Snyder and Carey Means, 2. Dave Willis, and 3. Matt Maiellaro. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Hannah and Jim join The Show today to discuss Black Stars Rise, the Lady Astronauts book series, lots of conventions, and more! Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Picking back up from their previous episode on the 100 Greatest Britons, Ian Wilson and Tom Hemmings reveal the second half of their lists as to who they truly consider to be the Top 50 greatest people from their part of their world. These include both notable omissions and picks that draw ridicule, but just because you will know the individual lists of the hosts by the end of the episode, that doesn't mean you know the weighted list, and therefore the definitive Top 100 list. Yet. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Will and Skyler begin their Yuletide Festivities as they watch Days of Our Lives: A Very Salem Christmas. What starts as a discussion of a Christmas tie-in film of a soap opera quickly becomes a discussion of one couple's stamina, confusing relationship rhombuses, and Jackee Harry. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
Will and Skyler get into some Santa Shenanigans as they review Santa Claus: The Movie. In between talking about some padded sequences and hammy acting, they also find time to talk about Flintstones Christmas Logistics, Illegal Candy, and one of the darkest openings to a family film ever. Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/earth_2.
In 2002, the BBC polled the British public as to who they considered to be the 100 Greatest Britons of all time. Because this poll did not include a 17-year-old Ian Wilson nor a 19-year-old Tom Hemmings, the two men in question, now in their late 30s, set about to right this wrong by beginning their own countdown of who they consider the 100 Greatest Britons. This episode sees the hosts countdown from 100 to 51, whilst displaying their non-mutual contempt for explorers, sportspeople, and Margaret Thatcher.

Not a sequel, not a remake, it's the review of Scream (2022) with Skyler and Will. As they cover a new installment in one of their favorite horror franchises, they discuss legacy, eulogize Wes Craven, and grapple with the terrors of Internet culture. We hope you enjoy that torch!
