This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Elektra (2005), the Jennifer Garner spin-off that earned 11% on Rotten Tomatoes and pulled $57 million against a $43 million budget — the lowest gross for any Marvel adaptation since Howard the Duck. The guys debate whether you can twist your own neck off, whether this counts as a Christmas movie, and the awesomeness of Bob Sapp's hit(?) single, Sapp Time.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Robin Hood (2018), directed by Otto Bathurst and starring Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx as Little John, and Ben Mendelsohn as the Sheriff of Nottingham. Egerton fires arrows fast enough to punch through helmets, Foxx works through an accent that won't stay in one country, and Mendelsohn dusts off the same shouty authoritarian he played in Rogue One. The guys debate the casting, the preachy script, confusing setting, and whether anyone is actually a Robin Hood fan.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Masters of the Universe (1987), the 21% Rotten Tomatoes He-Man adaptation that turned a $22 million budget into $17 million at the box office and helped bankrupt Cannon Films within months. Directed by Gary Goddard — his only feature credit before he left to design theme parks — the movie was hyped as the Star Wars of the 80s, then ran out of money mid-shoot and relocated its intergalactic war to a suburban American strip mall. Dolph Lundgren stars as a glistening, barely-dressed He-Man whose dialogue had to be re-recorded in post. Frank Langella, performing through a rubber Skeletor mask that visibly inflates when he breathes, later called this his favorite role.
