Episode 103 - Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

Welcome back you regularly scheduled podcast. After celebrating Troy’s birthday…yet again, the guys are back reexamining some of the biggest financial bombs in cinematic history. This week, the gangs goes all diselpunk, and discusses 2004’s science fiction action-adventure film - Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Fan-favorite and host of The Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnite Cinema, Sammy, is back to assist in talks about Call Signs, Goopy Paltrow and lead characters with zero chemistry. Also, Troy partied too hard and has no voice but uses his soundboard to enhance his arguments. Additionally, the gang drives into Top Gun: Maverick as a little bonus. Obviously, this is the biggest movie of the year so it doesn’t deserve to be on a podcast called Not A Bomb. *** Warning, there are slight spoilers in the discussion. *** Timestamps: Intro - (1:05) Box Office Results and Critical Response - (6:39) Movie Guide Review - (11:15) Behind the Camera - (16;23) In Front of the Camer - (17:43) Production and Development - (26:40) Sky Captain Film Discussion - (37:25) Is it a bomb? - (75:46) What’s you call sign? - (78:10) Top Gun: Maverick Talk - (83:56) Coming up Next - (117:25) Outro - (124:28) Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow is directed by Kerry Conran and stars Gwyneth (Goopy) Paltrow, Jude Law, Giovanni Ribisi, Michael Gambon, Bai Ling, Omid Djalili, and Angelina Jolie.
