Episode 55 - Highlander

There can be only one….podcast! And that podcast is Not A Bomb! On this immortal episode, Troy and Brad are once again joined by Josh from The VHS Files to discuss the 1986 action/sci-fi film - Highlander. This cult film from the 80’s had a modest budget but failed to make an impact at the box office. However, VHS sales led to numerous sequels, TV shows, comics, books, and an anime film.

You’re in for a special treat as Brad and Troy do some pretty wonky Sean Connery and Christopher Lambert impressions as well as talk about rasslin’, 80’s music videos, New York vigilantes, Clancy “Mr. Krabs” Brown, The Gathering, and not so epic sword fights. We can’t warn you enough - these impressions are bad….Brad and Troy need help!

Highlander is directed by Russell Mulcahy and stars Christopher Lambert, Roxanne Hart, Clancy Brown and Sean Connery.

Episode 54 - Hamlet 2

To podcast or not to podcast, that is the question. Welcome back to this very Shakespearian episode of Not A Bomb. On this week’s show, Brad and Troy are joined by Cameron Sauer to discuss the sequel to the greatest tragedy of all time - Hamlet 2. That’s right, 400 years later Hamlet gets its proper sequel starring Steve Coogan and Elisabeth Shue.

A darling at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, Hamlet 2 was purchased by Focus Features for a staggering 10 million dollars. Sadly, released as a summer film, Hamlet 2 was quickly forgotten and failed to recoup its production budget.

The Shakespeare bug completely grabs the podcast this week as the gang also tackles Kenneth Branagh’s 4-hour epic Hamlet, which also happens to be a theatrical bomb. This is basically just an excuse to rave about Kate Winslet’s performance as Ophelia.

Hamlet 2 is directed by Andrew Fleming and stars Steve Coogan, Catherine Keener, Amy Poehler, David Arquette and Elisabeth Shue.

Episode 53 - The 13th Warrior

Hey Bomb Crew, welcome back and welcome to season 2 of the Not a Bomb podcast. On this week’s show, Brad and Troy “Friday Night” Sauer, tackle the forgotten 1999 adventure film - The 13th Warrior. Billed as the film by the writer of Jurassic Park and the director of Die Hard (some might even say The Predator), The 13th Warrior is known as one of the biggest box office bombs of all time and was universally panned by the critics.

The 13th Warrior is a pseudo retelling of the epic poem Beowulf and has Spanish actor Antonio Banderas portraying an Arab Muslim traveler who finds himself thrust into an adventure with Norse Vikings. This is one of the most thinly plotted movies discussed on the podcast and really only acts as an excuse to get into the next action set-piece.

Listen as Troy (who clearly had one too many cocktails at dinner) and Brad talk about some of their favorite adventure films, one of the worst trailers of all time, and the concept of the conduit character.

The 13th Warrior is directed by John McTiernan and stars Antonio Banderas, Diane Venora, and Omar Sharif.
