We Hate Movies

S13 Ep671: The Edge (with author Brant MacDuff)

On this week’s episode, the gang welcomes friend of the show and author, Brant MacDuff to chat about the pursued-by-bear survivalist thriller, The Edge!
How much of a genius is Anthony Hopkins supposed to here? Should you really be throwing an old man a surprise birthday party? And couldn’t someone have taken two minutes to at least eulogize that poor dead pilot? PLUS: A lengthy argument about what constitutes a “sexy sandwich.”

Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.
