2025/02/12

It’s February and that can only mean one thing…theatres filled with couples watching movies they’re totally not paying attention to, all the while seeing if they’ll touch hands while going for the popcorn. However, this is probably not the movie any couple is looking for. But, maybe it’s the movie they need…because Date Movie is not that bad.www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Spoutible) Learn

Ep. 165 - Epic Movie

It"s Not That Bad ·

2025/01/29

They say you can’t tell a book from its cover. To paraphrase, you also can’t always tell a movie by its title. Take Epic Movie, for example. They didn’t lie about one of those words…it is a movie. Whether it’s epic or not remains to be seen. The even bigger question though is if Epic Movie is not that bad.www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Spoutible) Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 163 - Alone In The Dark

The nice thing about adapting a video game to the big screen is that the story is already there, there’s a template for the characters and you have a ready-to-watch audience. So with all of that, how is it that some of these flicks make us want to rage quit? Strap in, grab a controller and pray for a “skip cutscene” button as we try to prove to you that Alone In The Dark is not that bad.www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X,
