We dive into the "best" of the Friedberg/Seltzer parody films, six of which are on the bottom half of the "bad list" and the "worst" of which sits at Number 1. Did we hate this one? Well at least one of us did, but we're just getting started.

I'm not crying, you're crying! We go over one of the saddest things which we were all dreading watching, but don't worry, there's plenty to talk about aside from crushing brutal sadness, such as the interesting polymath who wrote the story and the extremely methodical guy who directed the film, and of course some Miyazaki too. And if you're wondering, you don't have to watch the film to listen if you can't handle it right now (and if you want, you can read the short story which we talk about too)

The news just broke that Netflix made less original content in Q1 2026 than any time in the past 8 years and this film came out 8 years ago, so the pattern is there. There aren't many spoilers about the film because nothing happens so it's definitely safe to listen to this podcast without watching it, which is good because it isn't even on Netflix anymore. Probably also isn't a spoiler to say that we tried to talk about almost anything else for almost an hour.

Mark is back to wrap up talking about all the movies he wasn't here for in this finale to the trilogy that nobody asked for. Not exactly an April Fools' episode but it's the closest thing we had lying around.

Happy birthday to Matt! Belated birthday, ok very very belated (scheduling is hard) we are talking about a movie that features and was partially conceived by Bob Dylan in 2003(!) with a murderer's row of stars and directed by the guy who would later make Borat. Is it weird? How could it not be? It's Matt's birthday pick! Next week we're back to the list for the second half(ish) of it.

We're at the end of the fast and furious road for now, as we talk about the film that was supposed to be part one of the finale whose cliffhanger may get resolved in one movie, two movies, or something completely different, I guess we'll tentatively see you for Fast Forever in 2028, but before that we're getting back to the top 100 and bottom 100 rated films on IMDB

Matt is out sick this week because this movie was too much for his immune system. Mark and Luke talk about Torettos punching holes in buildings, favorite characters returning from the dead, cars going to space, magnets making stuff fly around, this film has it all.
