Grading On A Curve - Movies Of 2023

It"s Not That Bad ·

2023/12/27

2023 has had its ups and downs. Writers and actors went on strike, superheroes crashed and burned and Barbie went full nuclear at the box office. On this show, though, we wrap up the year a little differently. We like to take a bunch of people, subject them to the worst the year had to offer and see if they survive. We’re a little sadistic, but don’t worry…we all lived to talk about it right here on the latest edition of Grading On A Curve. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook -

It’s Christmas time and people are gathered around their fireplaces watching Hallmark holiday movies with their loved ones, some egg nog and filled with holiday cheer.

In 1997, the Spawn animated series debuted on HBO. It proved that the world was ready for a dark, violent gritty take on the character that graced the pages of the Image Comics series.

2023/11/08

In the 80’s, Tom Cruise was able to make anything and everything look cool…F15 fighter jets? Cool. Bartending around the world as a career choice? Cool.
