Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box office failures and decide whether they deserve a second chance. We are celebrating five years of discussing cinematic flops!
Buckle up—another wild ride with Not A Bomb is hitting the airwaves! This week, Troy and Brad are cruising through the gritty, chaotic streets of 1983’s D.C. Cab, answering a special request from one of our most loyal fans.

Episode 253 - Soldier
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
In this episode, Troy and Brad discuss one of the most underrated science fiction films of the last 30 years—a film that raises the intriguing question: “What if Kurt Russell didn’t have a mullet?” This week, they delve into the 1998 film Soldier, which some consider a potential sidequel to Blade Runner. This film stretches the limits of "face acting"—and maybe even Paul Anderson’s directing chops. Is it worth a second watch? Does Russell manage to leave a mark with just 104 words of dialogue? And will Brad at long last reconcile his oddly specific obsession with child death in cinema? Tune in to find out!
Soldier is directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and stars Kurt Russell, Jason Scott Lee, Connie Nielsen, Michael Chiklis, and Gary Busey

Episode 246 - Drop Zone Vs. Terminal Velocity (Movie Matchup March)
Welcome back to Not A Bomb podcast, the show where we tackle cinema’s biggest box office failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
March’s special theme cranks the adrenaline to the max as Troy and Brad throw it back to their original podcast showdown—where only one film can reign supreme. This time, they’re diving headfirst into the high-flying world of Parachute Action Films, pitting Drop Zone against Terminal Velocity (nope, not Point Break, but close). And to help break down the mid-air mayhem, they’ve got John from And Now For Something a Little Bit Different joining the jump. Which flick sticks the landing? Who brings the better skydiving swagger—Charlie Sheen or Wesley Snipes? Buckle up, freefall fanatics, because this debate is going terminal!
Drop Zone is directed by John Badham and stars Wesley Snipes, Gary Busey, Yancy Butler, and Michael Jeter
