Episode 284 - Red Sonja (2025)

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema’s most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We’re celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.

🔥 Not A Bomb! marches back into the battlefield of cinematic disasters with another contender for “biggest bomb of 2025.” This week, Troy and Brad summon a Greek God to their party—friend of the show Soph—who brings his artistic lens to the carnage.

⚔️ The subject? The 2025 remake/reboot of the 1985 sword-and-sandals cult relic Red Sonja. Armed with snark and steel, the crew takes a mighty swing at this low-budget “attempt” to reintroduce the flame-haired warrior to a new generation. But here’s the burning question: does this reboot honor the source material, or does it alienate the fans who kept Sonja’s legend alive? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Want to help support the show? Head over to the Not A Bomb Tee Public store and check our merchandise. Special thanks to Ted Blair for the amazing designs!
