Alien Covenant - Theater Nonsense
Friday May 26, 2017
Friday May 26, 2017
*******SPOLIERS*******In this off the cuff but feature length episode, Aaron and Rob recount their awful experience at the theater this past weekend seeing Alien: Covenant. They remember what makes the Alien franchise special (that is not in this movie) and so they break down the nonsense plot and the banality of the story. Michael Fassbender puts in another fine performance in a dual role, but his scenes oddly enough are the most drab and boring sequences.
The mythos and evolution of the Xenomorph is an affront to Dan O'Bannon and everything he created.
Utter trash.
Have you seen Covenant? What are your thoughts? Agree? Disagree? Let us know!
WE TELL THE WHOLE PLOT IN THIS EPISODE SO ***SPOILERS***

Upchuck Theater Off the Cuff - IMDb 30 Day Challenge

Greetings Upchuckers!
This was posted a little bit late, but in this unofficial episode, Dustin, Aaron & Rob all take a stab at an IMDb Challenge that asked the following questions. Here is the link that will show those questions. Unsurprisingly Aaron is disgusted with a majority of Dustin's choices and corrects his favorite movie's release year for him. Although favorite films seem to dominate this list, in typical Upchuck Fashion there are some films that are brought up that even all of the Upchuck crew refuse to watch again (or may watch again in a future episode for your entertainment). This one runs a bit long, but will provide a fun glimpse into what we would choose (or not choose if the case may be) to spend our time watching.
Feel free to send us how you'd rate our choices, or better yet send us your choices!
As always thank you for listening. PLEASE subscribe, like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, rate, and review. iTunes definitely gives the most juice so please be kind... and say something nice!

St. Patty's Day Nonsense x2!

So this is our Saint Patrick's Day episode...released on Mother's Day. In May. Almost 2 months to the day later.
First and foremost, thank you to all the loving mother's out there. You have more than just a tough job. Without you, there is no life. Or terrible movies.
Secondly, your support is and has always been great. But if you haven't yet, would you consider giving us a review and a follow if you've liked anything about what goes on here? You can do that in the following places:
Facebook // Twitter // iTunes // Podbean // Stitcher // tunein // and more. Just Google The Upchuck Theater and you'll find us! This is the greatest compliment you can give us, and the thing that will help us out the most!
In this episode, Dustin's all tuna pouch diet goes off the rails, Rob gets lost in between every McDonalds in a 10 mile radius, Aaron is absent for the whole thing and an Irish guy takes his place who has no idea about what they call things over in Ireland (truck? lorry?).
We review The SiFi original film Red Clover with Billy Zane and William Devane, and Unclucky Charms, starring giant breasts.
Check out the shining gem of both films Masuimi Max here.

Rollerball - Episode 15

In this episode, we watch one of our most divisive episodes yet - the 2002 horro show that is Rollerball. A remake of a 1975 gritty James Caan classic, the new Rollerball is stupid, poorly done, and a Rob favorite. Appealing to Rob's love of bad schlock, we also see Dustin (in possibly his most annoying turn yet) always willing to be leinent, and Aaron in his usual utter disgust.
Rollerball was a flop, and sent its direct John McTiernan to jail. This is the same guy that directed Predator and Die Hard. Then he did this garbage with Chris Klein. Yecccccck.
For a better movie with Rebecca Romin, try Femme Fatale.
For a movie that Chris Klein doesn't abort, try Election with Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon.
Yeck. Yeck. Yeck.
