The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are working their way through the first decade of the twenty-first century and year-by-year examining two movies for reappraisal, and with 2004 it's the old school monster mess "Van Helsing" and the motorcycle action "comedy" with a Goth Jaime Pressly and a douchy Adam Scott (and others), "Torque." Available on Spotify and Apple Episode 376 includes: -Marvel's going through some rough times with management and everything relating to the very serious charges against Jonathan Majors. -Trailer responses to "Barbie," "Across the Spider-Verse," and more. -Ben has seen "Avatar 2" and is not happy about it. -The guys split on the new "Dungeons & Dragons" movie. -By the Decade -- 2004 -- "Van Helsing" / "Torque" -The guys discuss two schlocky movies that have their appeal, first the big budget summer blockbuster that wasn't, "Van Helsing," and then the "Fast and Furious"-but-on-bikes knockoff, the trashy and ridiculous action thriller "Torque." |
