There Will Be Duds

A weekly conversation on twitch turned podcast. We review a wide variety of films drawn randomly from a cup -- the twist is that once a month we review a "bad" movie, or, a dud. The podcast is broadcasted on Twitch and YouTube every Wednesday at 7pm EST at twitch.tv/ThereWillBeDuds

2024/02/01

Odds and Ends: We talk Oscar nom predictions; Nick shines, while T.J. jacks in Feature Film: We cover the most hateful piece of poopoo we've probably ever seen, Vince Offer's Inappropriate Comedy. Or rather, hmh (I am smirking and laughing to myself), InAPPropriate Comedy! Because it's on a tablet, which has apps!

There Will Be Duds ·

2024/01/25

Odds and Ends: T.J. is an adult and a man who knows what he likes, and what he likes is a watching a quiet Japanese man play Minecraft; Nick likes reality questioning sci-fi movies specifically from 1999; Feature Film: We check out another oldie, and our first John Huston and Humphrey Bogart flick, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Bogart plays an against type (as far as we know) villainous heel type, and John Huston's dad plays just a really cool dude. It's kind of a western, kind of an

Odds and Ends: Nick watched two new fun sexy time movies, Saltburn and Poor Things, while T.J. watched a classic picture in a new manner.

2024/01/11

Odds and Ends: Steamboat Willie is public domain and that's cool; we revisit Love Actually and Beau is Afraid; T.J.'s Otaku Corner makes a return because he watched some anime, and that's literally the only qualifier for that segment Feature Film: We check back in on our buddy David Lynch with his movie Blue Velvet, just to see if he's doing okay. Turns out he's fine and thinks this movie is just as funny as we do. Next week's movie: The Celebration (1998) You can join

131 - Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

There Will Be Duds ·

2024/01/04

Odds and Ends: There's another new X-Files show and it sure is a show; we're still watching Christmas movies, this time we talk about the recent The Holdovers and the not-so-recent (20 years, woof) Love Actually Feature Film: We check out another flick by that Spielberg fella, the first of the Indiana Jones series, Raiders of the Lost Ark. T.J. goes in to some fan theories of let's say varying validty. Nick thinks that maybe the 80s was a pretty good time for movies, and we wonder if

130 - Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 (1987)

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/12/28

Odds and Ends: We pick some movie-centered resolutions for the new year, because this is a movie podcast after all, in case you didn't know; our closing remarks on the holiday season and what our favorite things to do in life are (the answer will SHOCK you!!!) Feature Film: We talk about a somewhat cult classic that is most known for an about 8-second clip about trash time, Silent Night Deadly Night Part 2! We also sorta do a look into the entire series, because we both* watched all the movies

2023/12/21

Odds and Ends: We welcome Christmas time with our coldest of opens; Nick dropped out of his Futurama binge for no particular reason; T.J. saw Napoleon and liked... well, y'know, the history is pretty cool; what traps would be in a Saw Christmas movie? Feature Film: We discuss one of the great Christmas classics with John McTiernan's Die Hard. Do people still argue about that? Because, well, they shouldn't. So there. Eat it, Harvey. Next week's movie: Silent Night, Deadly

128 - A Madea Christmas (2013) wsg Trevor

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/12/14

Odds and Ends: Nick's got the Jeopardy bug, T.J. saw three great movies in theaters, and Trevor saw some hot garbage, which to him is also great Feature Film: Our guest Trevor is a certified CAM boy (Crazy About Madea), so to honor the holiday season, he brought in A Madea Christmas, and we have to remind ourselves that this is not a "dud" episode. Featuring the hilarious and creative antics of one Larry who is a Cable Man (and his overabundance of foreskin), it certainly is a

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/12/07

Odds and Ends: Macy Gray Thanksgiving Parade; Nick had a Hanksgiving double feature; T.J. watched an okay movie Feature Film: We check out the first movie (kind of, maybe, with certain parameters) by legendary director Stanley Kubrick, The Killing.

125 - The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/11/23

Odds and Ends: There's a Zelda movie in the works, and we are cautiously pessimistic about it; T.J. watched the Terrifier movies, and Nick watched something equally as scary - a King of the Hill Halloween episode Feature Film: We discuss the movie that's only ever been known as a Thanksgiving harvest time classic and not associated with any other holiday, The Nightmare Before Christmas! A bite-sized feature that packs a lot of story and character and charm, with some pretty neat

124 - Yi Yi (2000)

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/11/16

Odds and Ends: They/Them Follow starring Ethan Bacon; Great British Baking Show is back and we're here for it; we watched Five Nights at Freddy's and it wasn't as bad as we expected Feature Film: Edward Yang's final film, Yi Yi, is a lengthy family drama with plenty of yearning sadbois. A very cozy feeling movie, something you could put on with chill lofi beats to study to. Or maybe drink some depth charges to. Next week's movie: The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) You

It's a sweaty pressure cooker of a movie with lots to love. Next week's movie: Yi Yi (2000) You can join the conversation every Wednesday at 7pm EST on Twitch and Youtube!

122 - M (1931)

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/11/01

Odds and Ends: We do some self-shilling, did you know we have a Youtube channel; T.J. finally gets to talk about The Creator and we make the bold proclamation that hey, maybe original movies are a good thing Feature Film: Stepping farther back into movie history than ever before, we almost hit silent film territory with Fritz Lang's classic, M, a talkie that still has some silent film trademarks leftover in it, that's how "almost" we got to them. Also, this is like our third or

121 - Dreamcatcher (2003) wsg Chris!

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/10/25

Odds and Ends: We don't get Swifties, and us being old white guys doesn't have anything to do with that; Nick rewatched a childhood favorite featuring Hunter Dunbar, as well as the classic Dawn of the Dead Feature Film: Another weird adaptation of a Stephen King novel, Dreamcatcher is a mashup of discarded ideas that the author didn't have room for in other books. On top of that, the movie makes it even weirder by having an English actor who can't do an English accent, Donnie

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/10/18

Odds and Ends: We tried to watch other horror movies for the Halloween season, but all we could muster was one episode of the new Castlevania show that is just okay; we talk about some horror shorts on YouTube, namely The Other Side of the Box and My House Walk-Through. Feature Film: Chris brings in another horror double feature with the recent indie horror hits The Outwaters and Skinamarink, and all of us had a great time, no complaints here. Just a couple very normal and definitely very scary

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/10/11

Odds and Ends: We try to be movie news guys and report on the results of WGA strike, but we don't want to subscribe to these websites to read the dang articles; Nick is watching the Saw series and talks about how easy the traps would be for him to escape because he's built different Feature Film: We talk about another horror classic, as well as it's direct sequel, and how different they both were from what we were expecting. There's spooks and sillies, some good Texas barbeque, and

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/10/04

Odds and Ends: Ain't no movies in theaters; good and bad (and stinkers) of the early 80s; why is Stop Making Sense the "best concert film ever"; Nick watches a cool and fun documentary Feature Film: Josh from Learning About Movies returns yet again, this time bringing in the first of our horror month picks for the year, the Italian giallo classic Suspiria. Featuring lots of pretty colors and pretty nasty kills, and a seeing eye dog scene that is just kind of a bummer. The dog is

117 - The Happening (2008)

There Will Be Duds ·

2023/09/27

Odds and Ends: Concert film terrorism; Onyx the Fortuitous has a movie coming out, and it may or may not be good (how's that for some movie news); T.J. watched some classic movies and had a good time; somehow we wind up discussing the Conjuring cinematic universe Feature Film: M. Night's infamous movie The Happening, where not much seems to be... occurring. One of many weird and bad movies from the auteur, but maybe not as bad as it's considered to be? I say maybe because I already

2023/09/20

Welcome back to the Vault! We’re back in time for the second part of our Gamecube specials, and in this one, we cover our own personal top 10 games for the console, and our top tens are… more similar than we expected, so it’s more like one top 15 list. At least our honorable mentions are different enough… except the ones that are in the other persons’ top 10… Hey, we normally review movies, so go easy on us for this one, yeah?
