The Hell With This Podcast #22 - Last Action Hero

[Chad Peter]

"Last Action Hero" (1993)

Today we celebrate the absence of Chad from the podca-- er, we mean, no, we like Chad... but he's absent from this particular episode, as he's vacationing in jolly good England. In his stead, comes friend-of-the-podcast, one mister Steve Phelan, whom some of you might recognize from the early 2000's podcast, Digital Llama Radio. Or not.

In any case, "Chad" (Steve) and Mark dive back into an oldie-but-baddie, the universally panned, "Last Action Hero", mostly to see if it got better over time. Their verdict? Well, maybe you should just listen to the damn podcast.

I watched this a couple of years ago, it was better than the reception it got at the time. In my head, I always confuse the title with 'Jingle All The Way'

in not unrelated news, I watched 'The Formula' on the flight back from France yesterday. top film.

The Life and Death of Last Action Hero

I've said it before and I'll say it again: It's a miracle ANY movie is ever finished.

Also something of note we failed to mention in the podcast, right before Jack Slater enters the real world he says, "The hell with it." Which is close enough to the podcast's name to count in my book.
