Ep. 163 - Alone In The Dark

It"s Not That Bad ·

2025/01/15

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,

Every Christmas season, people make fun of the absurd level of schmaltz dumped onto television by the good people at Hallmark.

Ep. 160 - Time Cut

It"s Not That Bad ·

2024/12/18

There are three words, when put together, combine to form the scariest phrase in the world of modern day movies. No, it’s not “time travel film”. And no, it isn’t “retro slasher flick”. In fact, the scariest thing anyone could ever whisper into the ear of a cinephile is “straight to streaming”. That said, we’re here to whisper to you that Time Cut is not that bad.www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X, Instagram, Threads,

He’ll always be there for you, never let you down, and never lose faith in you, even when the critics have lost faith in him. That’s because Orgazmo is not that bad.www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky,

Keep Watch Pass - Remakes

It"s Not That Bad ·

2024/11/11

It's almost a Hollywood inevitability...if something is made and it does well enough, someone will eventually run out of ideas and just remake what worked before. Whether that was a good thing or not is entirely up for debate, and debate we will as we drop our Keep, Watch and pass picks from the pantheon of remakes. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Social Media - @notthatbadcast (X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Spoutible) Learn more about your ad choices
