Episode 37 - Sunshine
Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb! This week, Troy and Brad are, once again, joined by their good friend, Bret, to discuss the 2007 Danny Boyle directed Sunshine. In this sci-fi/action/disaster/slasher film, the sun is dying and the only way to save the Earth from eternal cold is blowing it up. Yes, you read that correctly. Hollywood science in all it’s glory! Listen as the guys talk about science (yuck) and use their limited knowledge to discuss nuclear fusion, the sun’s life expectancy, and Chris Evans’ bad haircut. Oh, and Troy gets to say Michele Yeoh’s name throughout the entire episode over and over and over…
Released by Fox Searchlight, Sunshine never opened in more than 500 theaters and, coupled with the notorious third act tonal shift, the movie failed to recoup its production budget.
Spoiler alert, someone on this episode really does not like this movie and its not Brad. Big surprise!
Sunshine is directed by Danny Boyle, and stars Cillian Murphy, Rose Byrne, Cliff Curtis, Chris Evans, Troy Garity, Hiroyuki Sanada, Benedict Wong, and Michelle Yeoh.

Episode 36 - Love and Monsters (2020)
On this episode of Not A Bomb, romance is in the air as Troy and Brad light some candles, play some soft music, and discuss 2020’s Love and Monsters. Directed by Michael Matthews, Love and Monsters is a heartfelt, monster adventure film about….well, love and monsters. Listen to Troy and Brad fall head over heals for Dylan O’Brien and gush over the dog acting of Boy.
Released during the COVID-19 pandemic, Love and Monsters was criminally underseen and didn’t come anywhere close to making back its production budget. However, this is one of the most fun, imaginative films Not A Bomb has discussed during our run. This is one of the best movies of 2020! Seriously, do yourself a favor and SEE THIS MOVIE!
Love and Monsters is directed by Michael Matthews, and stars Dylan O’Brien, Jessica Henwick, Dan Ewing, Ariana Greenblatt, and Michael Rooker.

Episode 35 - Speed Racer
Go Speed Racer, Go Speed Racer, Go! That’s right folks! On this episode of Not A Bomb Podcast, the gang tackles the 2008 sports/action film - Speed Racer. Based on the anime/magna of the same name, Speed Racer is known as one of the biggest movie bombs of all time. To help Troy and Brad discuss such a colossal cinema failure, Sammy, from Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnight Cinema comes to the show.
Speed Racer is brought to the big screen by the visionary directors - The Wachowskis. Following the success of the Matrix trilogy, The Wachowskis took over the troubled production at the request of Warner Brothers Studios and producer Joel Silver. Sadly, the film failed to start and never had a chance at the box office. Critics did nothing to assure anyone other than 12 year old boys that they would enjoy the film and the movie lost close to $100 million. Oh wait, is that Shaft and the dude from Ninja Assassin?!?!?!?!
Speed Racer is directed by The Wachowskis and stars Emile Hirsch, Christina Ricci, John Goodman, Susan Sarandon, Matthew Fox, Benno Furmann, Hiroyuki Sanada, Rain, and Richard Roundtree.
