Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (EP 27)

This week on The Last Row Podcast, Drew and Badway go straight from the theater and into the studio to bring you their hater-free thoughts on the critically maligned and box office approved epic, Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice. In this two-part episode, the guys open by talking about the hype leading up to the release, react to the critical beating the movie took, question Zack Snyder’s reputation, and renounce their unofficial partnership with the Rotten Tomatoes scoring system. The second half (spoilers included) breaks down the host’s likes/dislikes of the film, thoughts on the Justice League tie-ins, and ponder the future of the franchise.

*If you haven’t seen the film yet, potential spoilers start at the 29:25 mark*

D2: The Mighty Ducks (EP 26)

This week on The Last Row Podcast, Drew and Badway analyze the sequel that launched thousands of Knuckle-Pucks across America, D2: The MIghty Ducks. However, the story isn’t as clear as you may have remembered it from twenty plus years ago. Was Gordon Bombay really a great coach, or even a good one? Were any of the Ducks worthy of a spot on team USA? Was Wolf “The Dentist” Stansson more villainous than Hawk’s Coach Riley, or was the Icelandic Crusher merely misunderstood? All of theses questions, and more, are answered in full detail. Other topics include: the possible success of the “Air Bombay,” phony apologies to children, rollerblading, Team USA goonage, Bombay’s improbable stint in the minors, and a quick look at what the cast was up to post-Ducks.

Sudden Death (EP 17)

Just in time for the Stanley Cup Finals, The Last Row Podcast honors the underappreciated Jean-Claude Van Damme classic, Sudden Death. Drew and Badway have an extensive discussion about the iconic Jean-Claude goalie scene, while pondering his Canadian semi-pro career, his effectiveness (and perhaps overqualification) as a firefighter, and put Darren McCord’s skills up against another fictional hockey legend, Gordon Bombay. The guys also choose the possible fits for other actors in similar logic-defying championship sports roles, recast Sudden Death for the reboot that will never happen, and break down the four different levels of sports mascots and rank them based on fighting prowess.
