Lucky episode number 13 gets incredibly weird when Huey, John and Bob have to fend for their lives without Rex, and they don't do well. They review the absolutely baffling fun of THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS and dig into to reviewing newly release hollywood trailers and if reviewing trailers is even worthwhile at all. Huey is EXCITE, Bob shuts down because of the DCEU and John starts having a stroke because STAR WARS is apparently just SUBWAY. Stay after the end bumper for a half hour conversation about Time Travel...You're welcome? Eat fresh.
Trailers reviewed: Kingsman2: The Golden Circle, The Hitman's Bodyguard, Transformers: The Last Knight, The Mummy, Baby Driver, Justice League, Thor: Ragnarok, Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Lao Tzu said "DON'T WATCH AIR BUD MOVIES." Well Bob and Matt are halfway there, up is down, left is down, right is down...it's all down. Who Cares. Listen to returning guest, comedian Bryan Preston, ride the sled as Bob and Matt pull him through SNOW BUDDES! That's right, AIR BUD 7, THE MOVIE THAT KILLED 5 PUPPIES. Was it worth it? Does the plot involve carpet bombing Alaska with ice cream? Does an entire town watch a bunch of dogs slowly drown for entertainment? The answers are NO, YES, YES...but please still listen for all the rest of the frosty excitement featuring the voice talents of Jim Belushi, Whoopi Goldberg, Kris Kristofferson, Molly Shannon and the return of Tom Everett Scott as Air God himself. Sorry, Bud.

SHORT REVIEW: 4 Roger Ebert Thumbs sort of pointing down?
The MOUND boys come together to review a movie they barely have any passion for based off source material they...barely have any passion for, POWER RANGERS! Rex, Huey, John and Bob ask the question for the ages, if no one had any pre-existing knowledge of Power Rangers, would this serious, sullen, Nolen-esque take on the show make any sense? The answer is...no. Bryan Cranston sleepwalks, Bill Hader gets a paycheck for 2 hours in a recording booth, and everyone needs to hide all their gold because Rita Repulsa is coming to do something vaguely non-specific with it! This episode sponsored by Krispy Kreme.

Lao Tzu said "Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment." Matt, Bob and this week's returning guest, comedian Kathy Carson, do their best to respond to AIR BUD 6 aka AIR BUDDIES! Join these three as they watch the last film role of the legendary Don Knotts and the first of many adventures with B-Dawg, Rosebud, Budderball, Buddah and Mudbud. Hear the muted joy of experiencing TALKING animals for the first time in the AIR BUD CINEMATIC UNIVERSE! Learn about a voice cast assembled, most likely through blackmail, consisting of Molly Shannon, Abigail Breslin, Tom Everett Scott, Wallace Shawn and Michael Clarke Duncan! Can an evil rare-animal collector/whine vineyard proprietor from Latka's home country dognap Air Bud's children? Will Bud verbally explain why he hasn't spoken english for 5 entire movies up until now? Will Fernfield's systemic racism explain why the Framm's black neighbors have no say in the puppy adoption process despite being the legal owners of Molly, their mother? All the answers, and absolutely no pudding or napkins, are just a click away!
