Countdown #492
... NINE ...
Do you have a few films that you love and yet which, to your befuddlement, failed to make any kind of splash at the box-office? In fact, they went so poorly, they belly flopped into that box-office pool and lost approximately all the money?
Paul and Wayne most certainly do. And this week they're counting their ten favourite films which completely tanked at the box office, in some cases destroying or at least adversely affecting the careers of those responsible for the film.
How many crossovers will the lads have? How many times will Paul get to augment his trademark "LOW!" with the Soundboard? And will Wayne finally snap at said use of that same Soundboard?
Learn the answers to all those questions and more, as The Countdown continues ...
Note: Paul misspoke re Big Trouble in LC. Of course it had a domestic box-office release; it just did not have an international one according to Box Office Mojo.

It should be a week of glowing positively on the show. Wayne is reviewing a Batman-adjacent film and Paul is reviewing a long-awaited horror film from one of his favourite Stephen King novels of all time. But, regardless of expectations, are either of the lads happy?

Countdown #491
TEN.
It's barely the spooky season and Wayne is suffering in his jocks (again!) for your amusement, this time by doing the horror-adjacent topic of the Top 10 Stephen King Adaptations.
Of course, another fantastic podcast was required to make up for Wayne's many, many shortcomings, and this time that role is filled by John and Lloyd from the fantastic The Pint: A Pop Culture podcast.
Lloyd is an old-school King fan (he has the tattoo to prove it), so how will he fare dealing with Wayne's lack of "Kingliness"? Or is there a bigger shock in store for he and John? Could it be Paul who will make the left-field calls?
There's only one way to find out, and it isn't by boofing spiders ... as The Countdown continues ...
Please thanks Lloyd and John by checking out their awesome show ASAP!

The only way Wayne could have been any more ready for this George Clooney and Brad Pitt starring action crime comedy on Apple TV would have been if Henry Cavill and Tom Cruise were also both involved!
So how did Wayne take this Jon Watts written and directed film? Was he completely in love with its cool factor? Or did this one promise too much and deliver too little? And could it be that Paul is actually more down with Wolfs, despite his man-crush for anyone involved being considerably less intense than Wayne's?
Learn the answers to all these questions and more as The Countdown continues...
Time Stamps:
Wolfs NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 8:09
Wolfs SPOILER-FILLED Discussion: 8:09 - 16:02
Final Thoughts Including Potential Spoilers: 16:02 - 18:25

Countdown #490
The Countdown marks the beginning of the "spooky season" by convincing Wayne he could do such an episode if it was about the WORST horror films. Namely, the Worst 10 Horror Films of All Time!
But for such a massive topic, the boys needed some help. And it came in the form of the magnificent So Wizard Podcast! Joey returns and this time, instead of Markellus, he brought with him another horror hating podcaster, Aubrey!
What films will Wayne and Aubrey go to town on and will the horror fans (aka Paul and Joey) be able to take it? Just how many rants will Paul go on? And can Wayne actually talk about horror films without crapping on the whole genre?
Find out as The Countdown continues ...
And please thanks our guests by checking out So Wizard wherever you can find great podcasts!

Countdown #489
With the end rapidly approaching, the boys shake it up with just one week this week - Wayne's list of the top 10 times Paul scored a film incorrectly, according to his Letterboxd ratings.
As a result, Paul puts himself out there for all the ridicule, abuse and judgment one can imagine - all for yours (and Wayne's) amusement!
Join the pile on amid much laughter, as The Countdown continues ...
