X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE Commentary Track

He's the best at what he does, unfortunately, what he does in no way involves the power to tell Tom Rothman "no." The BOP Crew reaches the zenith of X-Men Generation One in our X-Retrospective series, along with the zenith of late 2000s 20th Century Fox Tom-foolery (see what we did there?). This is our audio commentary for X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE, a film meant to kickstart a spin-off series of Origin titles, be Gavin Hood's big break, the start of a (very) different Deadpool, plus many other incredibly broken promises. Instead, a writer's strike, producer and executive arguments, conflicting ideals, last minute changes, the entire film being leaked onto the internet, and a myriad of other problems forever altered an R-rated revenge tale about Logan's war-torn PTSD into... well, you've seen it. Certainly a Tragedy!

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!

DEADPOOL

Oh, hello there. Perhaps you're familiar with my work; taco truck drag racer, international assassin, the asshole who went all Ken from Street Fighter on Kitty Pryde that one time. La piscina de la Muerte! The Pool of The Death! Or as the cover to my 1998 solo rap album reads, "$cams." But I, Deadpool, am not here to sell you on the several thousand unsold copies of "The Sun Soaked Streets of LA Through the Prism of A Genetically Altered Canadian: An Epic Acapella Rap," only 9.99. No! I'm here to tell you folks about my favorite podcast(right behind Nordic Food Lab), and the episode they've done all about yours truly! The BOP Crew is giving their Maximum Effort(copyright me) to talk about DEADPOOL: The Motion Picture. You know, the newest movie by the company who tried to kill me to the best of their ability. But like tuna, you can't rub me out despite my pasty taste. Anyways. They discuss everything, from their favorite jokes, how sexy and talented Director Tim Miller is(personal friend and cuddle buddy), to the long and arduous 10 year journey it took for my profanity laden adventures to hit the silver screen. Also, that one time Ryan Reynolds and I tried to transport Coors into Georgia. Enjoy!

X-Men: Days Of Future Past

JOIN US, MY MUTANT BROTHERS AND SISTERS! Join Box Office Pulp as we travel into the past to prevent the recording of an episode that destroys your future! After we kill our past selves(we saw no alternative) we decided to record a new episode in it's place(and enjoy all the accommodations of the 2010's). In THIS time displaced episode, we fittingly discuss the retcons, the drama, the utter childhood delight, and the amazingness of: X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.

BOP Reviews... The Wolverine

It's appropriate that the first time we see Hugh Jackman's Wolverine way back in the first X-Men film, is during a vicious cage fight where the announcer introduces him as "The Wolverine". And now, over ten years later, a film titled THE WOLVERINE has given us a definitive portrayal of the character, both from Hugh Jackman (who continues to carve himself into the role more than even any James Bond actor has been able to manage), and from a story that attacks the core of who Logan is. Comic fans, and the movie going public hasn't grown tired of seeing Wolverine quip and slice his way through the bad guys for the greater good. After all, he's the best at what he does, and what he does isn't very nice. But after those he's loved have died, after suffering through wars, and fighting the good fight like any soldier would... what if Logan has grown tired of being Wolverine? 

The Wolverine

We're the best at what we do, and what we do is talk about movies. Join one half of the Box Office Pulp Crew, Mike and Alex, as they journey to Japan, go up against the Yakuza, fight ninjas led by an evil snake lady, and discover whether or not they are truly man... or animal. Which is just a clever way of saying: On this edition of Box Office Pulp, we discuss the adaption of the classic comic book arc, and cinematic return(and revival) of everyone's favorite Canuck played by an Australian -- THE WOLVERINE.
