The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are working their way to the last couple years of their dive into the movies of the 2000s, checking out 2009's trio of kids/family films such as "Shorts," by mistake apparently, "The Spiderwick Chronicles," and the big-budget anime adaptation from the Wachowskis, their chaotic and colorful flop, "Speed Racer." Available on Apple and Spotify Episode 380 includes: -R.I.P. Tina Turner, as well as original content that streamers are deleting forever. -There is a lot to discuss with the revelations of the toxic work environment of the "Lost" writer's room and the reactions from those in power. -"Hypnotic" is a twist-dependent thriller with a wasted twist. -"Fast X" is saved through the sheer goofy charisma of Jason Momoa. -Ben says the new live-action "Little Mermaid" is -By the Decade -- 2008 -- "Speed Racer" / "Spiderwick Chronicles" / "Shorts" -The guys discuss the Robert Rodriguez's goofy and goopy non-linear kids movie, the charming YA fantasy siege movie, and the bombastic assault on their senses that is "Speed Racer," a movie that is not deserving of its critical reassessment. It's "kids movies" all around! |
