Mailbag: Ohio vs Wisconsin & Dave Thomas Still Sucks

Bad Movies Rule!

Show Notes

Mailbag Mayhem returns with James, Clint, and Ryan digging through the inbox and voicemail line.

We’ve got an all-timer metal promo, the HR department dangling a pizza-party escape clause, three different Joshes in a row, a guy whose entire gun collection is movie guns, an unhinged Dave Thomas defense years in the making, bingo grannies as the ultimate Walker, Texas Ranger villains, and a full-blown Ohio vs. Wisconsin land-swap war.

Plus the usual temperature reports in freedom units, some light character assassination, and zero physical packages (we’ll make up for it next time).

Alice is back in another underground Umbrella lab, clones are running wild, and Jill Valentine is somehow worse than ever. We go scene-by-scene through the fifth Resident Evil movie — reverse openings, napkin awakenings, laser grids, Tokyo simulations, Call of Duty zombies, ax-wielding giants, and a White House finale that somehow feels like Mordor. Bob, Joe, and Stephanie join James as the chaos escalates, the running gags pile up, and we hand out the usual awards. Does this one rule, or is it just another bad movie? You’ll have to listen to find out.

The BMR Pregame Show is live from Raccoon City. James, Clint, and Ryan get you ready for this Friday’s full episode on Resident Evil Retribution (2012) — the fifth movie in the series and the one where things have almost certainly stopped pretending to make sense.

The mailbag is stacked this week. A Beaverton care package delivers Oregon saltwater taffy (pickle pieces quarantined) plus a full Macho Man Randy Savage rap CD that disses Hogan. The movie haul includes a bloody In a Violent Nature collector’s set, The Burning, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon, brutal WWII John Wick-style action, and the complete Leprechaun collection just in time for the new series.

Warwick Davis in the role that somehow launched an eight-movie franchise. Jennifer Aniston in her first big movie. And Dana joins the show for the very first time to help us figure out how a movie this dumb got made.

BMR Pregame: Leprechaun (1993). The Dead Starfish lace up against a little guy in a box, and nobody on the panel has a clean memory of how this actually goes.
