X-MEN 3: THE LAST STAND Commentary Track

Audiences and third films. They have long struggled to co-exist, with studios stretching directors to the point of burnout, and others choosing new blood to handle the ballooning budgets and ravenous expectations. Neither strategy has prevailed, and X-Men: The Last Stand exists as a monument to this riddle so few can solve. Join BOP n' A Movie as we move into Tragedy territory on the third leg of our X-Men commentary series, dissecting one of the most infamous disappointments of the 2000's, a film so poorly-received it was held partially responsible for "killing" the superhero movie before the MCU began printing money. 20th Century Fox (RIP) was a very different company in 2006, and the road that led to us becoming Juggernaut's bitch is strewn with false starts, corporate betrayals, message board tea-spilling, greed, addiction, and even more troubles in the Job-like existence of James Marsden. But underneath the jump-cuts and the botched story-lines, is there a solid X-Men story hiding out at Magneto's Summer Camp? Throw on that uniform that's a size too small and avoid getting your fur caught in the zipper, because you're about to find out!

X-MEN Commentary Track

Comic book movies: The key to multi-media empires. It has enabled us to view men in rubber suits punching penguin-men, spandex-clad alien visitors turning back time, and Shaq attempting to act. But every few decades, comic book movies leap forward. With the impending release of NEW MUTANTS, the final in-continuity film in the franchise that changed the course of action cinema and cemented a genre into the pop culture zeitgeist, the BOP Crew is celebrating where it all began with a trip down Mutant Lane, going deep and introspective on the X-MEN franchise! It's a BOP 'n A Movie X-TRAVAGANZA! In the first feature audio commentary of the series, we travel back to humble beginnings in the year 2000, where the superhero had died in a blaze of Bat nipples and ice puns, ready to be re-birthed with a new purview of what the genre could be. The world was ready for the mutant metaphor and something new and strange. It's the film that changed comics, movies, and made Toad a household name, this is X-MEN!

When Good Ghouls Go Bad Commentary Track (A Big-Ass Pumpkin Day Celebration!)


Spit out your candy corn and put down your carving knives, because it's that time of year again! No, not that time of year! The other time of year, where the mighty Pumpkin lords over all that encounter it! It's another festive installment of (Big Ass) Big Ass Pumpkin Day, and the BOP crew once again has you covered for all things spooky and ooky. Perhaps even kooky? Madness, you may say, but the film we're watching this year represents everything that BAPD symbolizes: fake mummies, the titular giant pumpkins, and of course, a zombified Christopher Lloyd! It's The Big Ass Pumpkin Day presentation of the FOX Family original movie, WHEN GOOD GHOULS GO BAD. Featuring a live pumpkin carving by Cody! We're not joking. He... he really did that.

Join our pumpkin gut covered tradition by downloading the commentary here!
