The Rewatch Party 233 - Mars Attacks! (1996)

Fresh off the flesh, the steaks deliver themselves on the latest episode of The Rewatch Party. Elise left Nick, Anthony, and Manny to their own devices and they're taking on Tim Burton’s 1996 sci-fi masterpiece(?): Mars Attacks!, a film pitched on a series of random alien trading cards that somehow landed a spect-ack-ack-ack-ular cast. Debate the film's minimal box office profit margin, uncover the origin of the iconic martian “ack ack ack”, and a walk down memory lane to the days of Blockbuster, Hastings, and the noody aisle.  So ultimately is this a misunderstood masterpiece or a total misfire fit only for TRUE pokemon nerds like Geoff?  Only one way to settle it.  Tune in and ack ack ack like you mean it. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116996/
