Bugonia (2025): AI Slop, Skating Rinks, and the Movie We Definitely Didn’t Watch

Sorry for missing last week’s Bugonia episode—turns out it was 100% Gibbs’ fault. Recording mishap, lost files, the usual. So naturally, we’ve decided to title this episode Bugonia (2025) instead, even though the actual movie we’re reviewing is… Aloha (2015). Yes, that Aloha. And yes, it’s every bit the joke you remember.Before diving into cinematic regret, the crew gets into AI art in video games and Larian’s latest self-inflicted dumpster fire, followed by Gibbs recounting a near–Final Destination experience dodging children at a skating rink. Zea also drops in for a surprise visit, adding to the chaos.We do a quick, mercy-driven check-in on Bugonia (since we owe you one), then fully commit to diving into Aloha (2015)—a movie so bafflingly miscast and tone-deaf that it almost feels like performance art.Support us on Patreon!
