Together they examine the people, properties, and potential of each ’failed franchise starter’ with wit and humor without ’punching down.’

"Hey, this is getting complicated!" It's our third consecutive theme month and this one is (in so many ways) even bigger! That's right, it's Big in Japan 2: Even Bigger! And as we discuss this early genre mismatch from Midnight Meat Train director Ryuhei Kitamura, we find the time to discuss the importance of film editing as an art form, They Cloned Tyrone, Tucker's thoughts on Kyle Mooney's latest directorial offering, and who should direct the American remake of this film.
