'Ella McCay' and the Worst Movies of 2025

It's a cruel twist of fate that a movie so bland and upsettingly poor should be heaped in with the worst movies of 2025. Yet, here we are nonetheless.On the chopping block this week is James L. Brooks' well-meaning but misguided attempt at making local politics seem fun and sweet mixed with a romcom in 'Ella McCay', and no, we're not doing that stupid social media challenge either. Grow up.The real portion of the show, however, falls to the worst movies of 2025. And folks, let's be clear on one thing - DO NOT WATCH ANY OF THESE MOVIES. THEY ARE ALL TERRIBLE. I SUFFERED THROUGH THEM SO YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO. Did you know 'All's Fair' is getting a second season? Yeah, it's because you freaks decide to watch it and see how bad it was. And because of that, now we've got another season of that crap. Don't make the same mistake here.By all means, listen to this episode and enjoy it if you can, but for the love of all that is good and just in this world, do not go and watch these movies out of morbid curiosity or some kind of weird masochistic thing you've got going on. Don't do it. Do literally anything else with the same time you'd waste on these. Read a book. Listen to another podcast. Take a walk. Enjoy a warm cup of coffee. Do anything other than watch these movies.OK, next week's a much better episode. Tough it out. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
