The Countdown

Paul and Wayne sure do enjoy watching people fall in love on the small screen. Well, okay, maybe just Wayne. Paul seems to prefer bromances (pussy.)

 

Join the boys for a ride down the tunnel of love as they count down their Top Ten TV (Romantic) Couples as directed by top tier Patron and good friend to the show, Nick Spinarski! Finally, a chance for Wayne to gush over his favourite TV crushes and for Paul to thumb his nose at all that romance crap. 

 

And lets just say the nose/thumb action continues with their review of The Happytime Murders! 

 

For a taste of both cupid AND stupid this week, keep it right here on The Countdown!

Rippling veiny muscles. Unsheathed swords. Tiny loin cloths. These are some of Wayne's regular google searches.

 

Which works fine for this episode, because this week, the boys are counting down their Top Ten Sword and Sorcery films! And they're getting some help from across the pond, as Sam and Matiu from the Movie Reviews in 20 Q's Podcast join them to talk all things medieval in another show vs show countdown! Hilarity ensues as the two (strikingly similar) podcasting duos go blade to blade - who will win? Only you can decide!

 

And find out whether The Meg is even remotely worth seeing when the fellers review the new grizzling, stubbly Jason Statham vehicle! It's all here this week as The Countdown continues!

"How did this freakin' movie get made?"

 

That's what Paul and Wayne are waxing lyrical about this week - they're counting down the top ten films that just straight-up shouldn't have worked, but somehow did!

 

Some choices are films with a ridiculous premise that no-expected to get the green light. In other cases, it's a production so troubled, the whole film was gonna be left on the cutting room floor. In at least one case, it's just Paul being a combative anus. Also, Wayne wrote this show copy.

Time Stamps:

Recount: 7:02 - 13:02

Top 10 Films That Shouldn't Have Worked But Somehow Did: 13:02 - 1:01:21

Pop 10: 1:01:21 -1:07:11

Sometimes, you’re in the mood for a racy, risqué, titillating film.

But sadly, that film often winds up being pure crap, which causes you to facepalm halfway through, leaving  a goopy layer of lanolin all over your face. Ew.

Join Paul and Wayne for a way-too-graphic countdown of the WORST erotic films of all time! (Cinematically released ones, of course.) Can the boys out-gross each other with their most laughably crap Hollywood soft-core movies? Which ones failed to deliver any wood? Which ones involved gallons of bodily fluid? And which ones are just straight-up stupid?

To find out, turn the lights down low, fire up the Marvin Gaye and hit this link for some huge laughs and non-existent boners as The Countdown continues!

(Oh and stick around for the blooper/out-take this week. It's a doozy.)

Time Stamps:

Recount: 2:11 - 12:34

Seagal Watch: 12:34 - 14:36

Worst 10 Erotic Thrillers: 14:36 - 1:12:14

Pop 10: 1:12:14 - 1:16:25
