S10: Episode 500 (Part II) - Superman IV Redux

S10: Episode 500 (Part II) - Superman IV Redux

Author: WHM Entertainment August 20, 2020 Duration: 2:05:18

On the conclusion of WHM's FIVE HUNDREDTH (!!!) episode, the gang is chatting about the spectacular failure that is Superman IV: The Quest for Peace! Did Hackman flat-out refuse to use anything other than his real hair this time? Why sub out Otis for, ugh, Lenny Luthor? And could the producers not agree on a real villain to use, ultimately damning us with Nuclear Man?

We thank you for hopping on during the first 500 and we look forward to having you around for the next 500!

For over a decade, the crew at We Hate Movies has been turning cinematic misfires into comedy gold. Each episode from WHM Entertainment finds a quartet of friends dissecting a famously bad film, from forgotten straight-to-video oddities to big-budget Hollywood disasters. The conversation is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on the funniest, most brutally honest film debate at a bar, where tangents about obscure actors and baffling plot holes are not just encouraged, they’re the main event. You’ll hear them mercilessly roast wooden dialogue, ill-conceived special effects, and questionable life choices made by characters and filmmakers alike, all while building a surprising affection for these flawed creations. This podcast thrives on the specific joy of tearing apart a terrible movie with your most sarcastic friends, celebrating failure as its own form of entertainment. It’s a consistently hilarious escape for anyone who finds more genuine laughs in a film’s awkward silence or a poorly rendered CGI monster than in a perfectly crafted Oscar winner. The chemistry between the hosts turns each episode into a freewheeling comedic breakdown, making even the most tedious movie an absolute delight to revisit through their critical and deeply silly lens. Tune in for a masterclass in comedic riffing, where the love for cinema is undeniable, even when-or especially when-the movies themselves are not.
