They can’t all be winners. But have you ever thought that a movie didn’t get the chance it deserved? Or maybe a movie missed it’s mark with audiences, but you really liked it? Well that’s the topic of discussion for Derrick and Tim this episode. The guys picked a handful of movies to talk about that they both loved, but did not appeal to wide audiences. It’s a suggestive, but interesting conversation that we think you’ll enjoy.
****Spoiler Warning***** Tim and Derrick are talking freely about these films and there’s probably spoilers so here’s a list of the films discussed- The Ladykillers (1955 & 2004). Wyatt Earp (1994) vs Tombstone (1993) Ed Wood (1994) The Return of the Living Dead (1985) Alien 3 (1993) The Cable Guy (1996).

All this talk these days about super hero’s, let’s change the subject for a minute. How about instead we talk about anti-hero’s? On the opener of season 2 of Transmissions from the Forbidden Planet, our pals Derrick and Tim have a blast discussing the intrigue and the magnetism of the anti-hero in films and TV. And how one man… The Man with No Name… was so dang influential and cool, he set the bar for the anti-hero archetype from there on out. So go ahead, make our day and enjoy the show.

Just because the boys are talking about kids shows, doesn't mean this episode is kid friendly as far as language goes. Tim and Derrick do still have potty mouths....listener discretion advised.
