EPISODE 181: In this episode, Jason is joined by Old Man Brad himself, to throw some well-aimed shade (and praise) at the Top 5 highest-grossing films of 2006. Were these hits box office juggernauts or bloated cash grabs? Spoiler: it’s a little of both.
Movies Covered:
- Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest – Johnny Depp and his mascara return for a bloated, kraken-filled adventure. Did we really need a 2-hour CGI tentacle fight? Apparently, yes—because $1 billion.
- The Da Vinci Code – Tom Hanks solves riddles while giving us a history lesson that no one asked for. Conspiracy theories and bad wigs galore—who knew history could be so... snooze-worthy?
- Ice Age: The Meltdown – That one with the acorn-obsessed squirrel. Climate change? Check. Endless slapstick? Check. A movie we definitely only went to because the kids begged? Check.
- Casino Royale – Daniel Craig tries to prove he’s not just another Bond. Casino games, explosions, and parkour—basically, it's the gritty reboot that reminded us James Bond doesn’t have to be a cartoon character.
- A Night at the Museum – Where Ben Stiller plays an underqualified security guard and we’re all supposed to believe that museum exhibits come to life at night. An enjoyable fever dream or a franchise that outstayed its welcome?
