This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron ring in the new year with New Year’s Eve (2011) — the bloated, celebrity-packed rom-com that treats Times Square like a narrative dumping ground. Directed by Gary Marshall and stuffed with more recognizable faces than an Oscars montage, the film juggles dozens of half-baked story lines involving dying wishes, stalled elevators, maternity ward competitions, and a fragile New Year’s Eve ball.

So grab your champagne, set your expectations low, and join Ade and Aaron as they slog through paper-thin characters, relentless exposition, and a holiday movie that somehow makes optimism feel exhausting. Because if New Year’s Eve taught us anything, it’s that stuffing a movie with stars doesn’t guarantee fireworks — sometimes it just guarantees a very long countdown.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron sprint, tackle, and elbow their way through Jingle All the Way (1996) — the holiday madhouse where Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a mattress salesman with the physique of a Greek god, Sinbad turns it up to 11 as an unhinged postal worker, and Phil Hartman seduces a neighborhood of moms with fresh-baked cookies.

So grab your non-alcoholic eggnog, take a dose of 90’s nostalgia, and join the guys as they unpack bomb scares, mall-Santa cartels, and jet pack technology. Because if Jingle All the Way taught us anything, it’s the true meaning of Christmas — buying the right toy or your family will stop loving you.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron unwrap Deck the Halls (2006) — the holiday comedy that tries to bottle Christmas spirit and instead dumps out seasonal misery. Matthew Broderick plays a joyless optometrist who’s obsessed with Christmas, while Danny DeVito shows up as a restless salesman who decides that turning his house into a space-visible light beacon is the key to existential fulfillment.

So grab your hot cocoa, and join the guys as they break down mustachioed stunt doubles, ice-skating duels, and a sheriff’s provocative choice of underwear. Because if Deck the Halls taught us anything, it’s that even the brightest lights can’t save a holiday movie this dim.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron kick off Horrible Holidays with Jack and Jill (2011) — the Sandler-verse twin comedy that tries to coast on wigs, pratfalls, and CGI jump roping. With Adam Sandler playing both an ad executive and his chaotic sister, Al Pacino delivering a fully unhinged performance fueled by real-life financial desperation, and Katie Holmes standing politely off to the side like she wandered onto the wrong sound stage, it’s a film so sloppy it somehow swept all 10 Razzie categories.

Grab your Dunkachino, brace for twin-language gibberish, and join Ade and Aaron as they tackle cruise-ship detours, uncomfortable picnics, feral dinner guests, and a finale so self-aware even Pacino begs for the footage to be destroyed. Because if Jack and Jill taught us anything, it’s that building a movie around a vacation itinerary is great for Adam Sandler — and catastrophic for everyone else.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron dive into Obsessed (2009) — the glossy, PG-13 thriller that tried to channel Fatal Attraction but forgot to include the actual attraction. With Idris Elba playing the squeakiest-clean husband in movie history, Beyoncé maintaining moral perfection at every turn, and Ali Larter going full Lifetime-villain with zero explanation, it’s a film so neutered by studio notes it may as well have come with an abstinence pledge.

Grab your tequila, don’t forget to set the alarm, and join Ade and Aaron as they break down HR violations, temp agency chaos, and a finale that involves Beyoncé fighting in an attic for reasons no script rewrite could justify. Because if Obsessed taught us anything, it’s that removing every flaw from your lead characters leaves you with nothing but drywall — and one very ineffective cop.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron slide into the sun-bleached, Florida-fried madness of Striptease (1996) — the political-strip-club crime caper that paid Demi Moore a record-breaking salary to anchor a movie that can’t decide if it’s political satire or a sexy crime thriller. Featuring Burt Reynolds caked in Vaseline, and Ving Rhames wielding a cordless drill, it’s a film that turns Hiaasen’s dark comedy into pure, neon-tinted chaos.

Grab your lint trap, queue up some Annie Lennox, and join Ade and Aaron as they sift through off-screen plot twists, Florida Man side quests, and memorable one-liners. Because if Striptease taught us anything, it’s that in Florida, the line between comedy and corruption is as slippery as Burt Reynolds’ boots.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron dive into the glitzy, sleazy chaos of Showgirls (1995) — the infamous NC-17 trainwreck that tried to mix Vegas glamour with social satire. Directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring Elizabeth Berkley fresh off Saved by the Bell, it’s a film so ambitious, so uncomfortably earnest, it turned neon and nudity into high camp legend.

Grab your fries, throw them dramatically into the air, and join Ade and Aaron as they wade their way through bizarre relationships, unexpected dietary choices, and perplexing sex scenes. Because if Showgirls taught us anything, it’s that ambition can take you to the top—just watch your step on the way down.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron kick off “Naughty November” with Fifty Shades of Grey (2015) — the Twilight fanfic-turned-global-phenomenon that had everyone clutching their pearls.

Dakota Johnson stars as Anastasia Steele, a shy literature student who trips into the life of Christian Grey, a billionaire control freak with a hardware-store loyalty card and a passion for legal documents. The guys unpack the awkward dialogue, endless red flags, and the “playroom” that apparently doesn’t contain an Xbox.

Grab your gin and tonic (Hendricks if you have it, otherwise Bombay Sapphire), and join the hosts as they cringe, laugh, and try to find the safe word for boredom. Because if Fifty Shades of Grey taught us anything, it’s that romance is easy when you can afford a helicopter.
