BradPANELIST
So let me get to the point.
BradPANELIST
It's the toxic Avenger, the 2023 version, Peter Dinklage.
BradPANELIST
I started following this movie just because something popped up on Instagram a while back and I was like, Oh, they're remaking it.
BradPANELIST
So I followed it.
BradPANELIST
And then every now and then they post an update and it was like, They had to do a whole media campaign and make sure there were fans behind it.
BradPANELIST
Anybody that watched the Toxic Avenger, the Toxic Crusader cartoon, or any of the trauma films from back in the day, you're going to love this movie.
BradPANELIST
If you don't watch those movies, you're going to hate it.
BradPANELIST
I feel like it's a hard sell, even if you love the original.
Jacob WhiteHOST
And I think she also like robbed them.
Robert ZortmanHOST
That reminds me of Toxic Avenger.
Robert ZortmanHOST
Because his son is like, you only killed one guy and it was self-defense.
Robert ZortmanHOST
And he goes, did you kill anybody else? And he goes,
Jon DraperHOST
We were kind of making fun of it a little bit, and then it went to post-production hell, and we thought it would never see the light of day due to various reasons around sort of the star and some comments he had made in Hollywood.
Jon DraperHOST
And I'm talking about the Toxic Avenger.
Jon DraperHOST
I am a super fan of the original, and I am a big trauma guy.
Jon DraperHOST
I've seen maybe about 85% of trauma movies.
ShaheenHOST
You know what I mean? I didn't expect it to look the same.
ShaheenHOST
Obviously, I expected them to enhance the graphics a little bit, which they did, but it still kind of kept the same aura.
ShaheenHOST
as old trauma uh film so if you haven't seen toxic avenger man it was i think it was in my top 10 last year it was for me
Jon DraperHOST
too it was for me too uh last year the year before yeah great uh uh b show i remember we were taking a shit on this like you know before we saw a trailer Just through the casting and the controversies with Peter Dinklage and so forth.

Casey O'BrienHOST
Yeah
Millie De ChiricoHOST
...
ChuckHOST
i didn't even schedule a lot of 11 a.m movies because i don't want to because that by the time i get to the eight o'clock and i'll fall asleep in the fucking movies
Cody LeachHOST
oh yeah no i've only done it once me and sean did it two two or three years ago whatever the uh the toxic avenger because the toxic avenger that was the first year that ticketing just went haywire that was the second fantastic fest i went to and i was literally getting my stuff ready to go to the airport and it was um for for me it's 11 a.m when the tickets go live it was like 1101 And I went and opened up my phone because the year previous, I mean, you could wait till 1115 and still get tickets.
Cody LeachHOST
It was not selling like it was not crazy the way that it is now.
Cody LeachHOST
Yeah.
Cody LeachHOST
What the hell? That sucks.
Cody LeachHOST
And so we went to go see the creator, that movie with John David Washington, like the press screening for that and skip the first day.
Cody LeachHOST
And then we went to the PNI screening for Toxic Avenger the next day at 8 a.m. And boy, was that rough because you got to get there like 730.
Cody LeachHOST
It's first come, first serve.
Dane CodyHOST
This is the film, right? So this is
JacobHOST
the film, which you got Peter Dinklage is the Toxic Avenger, where he falls in the vat of toxic waste and gains special powers.
JacobHOST
And so does his mop that he used as he was a janitor.
JacobHOST
But, yeah, so...
Dane CodyHOST
Yeah, it was funny enough.
Dane CodyHOST
Yeah, average rating is 6.8 out of 10, so...
Dane CodyHOST
Like the original, the Toxic Avengers isn't for everyone, but viewers seeking an extremely gory, extremely silly time won't be disappointed.

JillHOST
the
Justin HensonHOST
And maybe that was my attraction of entertainment here, is the fact I'm trying to unravel the mystery of what this movie is really trying to do.
Justin HensonHOST
But it got to the point where we have a scene where Sheridan and our two transporters are running out of a hotel room, running from a group of 56-year-old men that all seem to wear the same underwear and white tank tops, that I realized our writer-director, Macon Blair, who wrote the recent remake of The Toxic Avenger, only knows how to do random gimmicks and situational shockers and actually having it make sense.
Justin HensonHOST
Nothing makes sense here, especially with our Sheridan character that feels more like an Omen type of movie or a Damien road trip movie is what Mason Thane's portrayal feels like.
Justin HensonHOST
And this may be because he elevates his performance above our two main leads to steal the screen in unease instead of comedy.
KlonPANELIST
I've, I've never seen a Macon Blair movie before, but he made this movie.
KlonPANELIST
