This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Joe Dirt (2001), the David Spade vehicle that scored 9% on Rotten Tomatoes and turned an $18 million budget into $31 million at the box office. Spade plays an orphaned janitor with a wig fused to his skull, telling his life story across four days of talk radio while the entire country stops to listen. Aaron and Andrew call it middle-of-the-road bad. Ade gave it one star and didn't laugh once.

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.
