Too Old for this Shite

We’re breaking down why this "workplace" comedy deserves more love, Josh Groban’s comedic timing, and why every freelance writer feels seen by this movie.🚨 WE HAVE A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨After nearly a year of stunting, jumping buses, and surviving the post-apocalypse, we are making a major change. This will be our final episode on traditional audio platforms.

This week the lads are heading to the post-apocalyptic wasteland of 1989 as they take on Cyborg ,the low budget Van Damme vehicle that somehow launched a franchise and cemented JCVD as an action icon. Is it a misunderstood cult classic or just gloriously, magnificently mad? The lads break it all down.

We finally saw the Bone Temple and are all excited to talk about it on this week's Shite Talk episode. We also bitch about Metallica and shitty Youtube Thumbnails. It's almost like we're old and cranky.

This week we revisit Hot Rod and try to figure out how a box office flop became one of the most quoted comedies of the 2000s.Was it misunderstood at release? Is it secretly genius? Or is it just very committed nonsense?We break down the chaos, the sincerity, and why we might love it more now than ever.

This week on Shite Talk, the lads go deep on two of 2025's most talked about films ,Final Destination: Bloodlines and The Carpenter's Son. One is a franchise sequel that somehow managed to be the best in the series, the other is a biblical horror with Nicolas Cage as a very stressed Joseph that had absolutely no business being as divisive as it is. The lads break down the kills, the lore, the religion, and whether either film deserves a place in the cult classic hall of fame. As always, they also run through the latest movie trailers and news from the world of upcoming films.

The late 80s gave us some of the most iconic Vietnam films ever made, but where does Hamburger Hill fit?We go back to 1987 and unpack a war film that stripped away myth and left only the grind. No central hero. No triumphant charge. Just young men stuck in a cycle they barely understand.Did we overlook this one growing up? And how does it feel watching it now?

On this week’s Shite Talk, we push back on the backlash and explain why people are getting Shelby Oaks completely wrong, and why we think it is actually a cracking indie horror.Along the way we spiral into reality TV trauma with America’s Next Top Model, talk early thoughts on Lee Cronin taking on The Mummy, get curious about Spider-Man Noir, debate the latest chaos from The Traitors Ireland and dip into expectations for Welcome to Derry.

This week on Too Old For This Shite, we revisit Highlander (1986) the cult classic that mashed together immortal sword fights, punk villains, lightning effects, and an all-timer Queen soundtrack.We argue over whether Highlander is a misunderstood fantasy epic or just pure 80s vibes doing most of the work. From Christopher Lambert’s accent roulette and Sean Connery’s baffling casting, to Clancy Brown’s unhinged Kurgan performance, we break down what still rules, what absolutely doesn’t, and why this movie somehow still works.

This week, we dive headfirst into Jackie Chan’s globetrotting, bone-breaking adventures with Armour of God (1986) and Armour of God II: Operation Condor (1991). From tree-top stunt accidents to Sahara wind tunnels, we discuss the stunts that made us gasp, the plots that make no sense, and the characters who chew the scenery like it’s lunch.Whether you’re here for nostalgia, action-comedy mastery, or just to see if anyone survives watching this stuff sober, we’ve got you covered.Warning: May cause acute respect for stunt coordinators and disbelief at plot logic.

Two 90s crime cult classics. Two very different vibes.In this episode of Too Old For This Shite, we compare The Boondock Saints with Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead, breaking down cult status, style, performances, and which film actually improves with age.If you love crime movies, cult cinema, or arguing about late-90s film reputations, this episode is for you.

Two Lovecraft adaptations. Two very different approaches.In this episode of Too Old For This Shite, we compare Dagon (2001) and The Resurrected (1991) to find out which film best translates H.P. Lovecraft’s world of forbidden knowledge, ancient gods, and creeping dread to the screen.If you love cosmic horror, cult films, or fishy nonsense, this episode is for you.

Two iconic road movies. One winner.In this episode of Too Old For This Shite, we pit Smokey and the Bandit against The Cannonball Run to find out which high speed classic still holds up and which one survives purely on charm, chaos, and moustaches.If you love car movies, 70s/80s cinema, or Burt Reynolds at peak confidence, this episode is for you.

This week we go head-to-head with two of horror’s most controversial reboots: Friday the 13th (2009) and A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). One tried to modernise Jason by mashing together multiple sequels into a slick survival slasher. The other attempted to reboot Freddy and somehow drained all the fun out of the dream.We break down what works, what absolutely doesn’t, and whether either remake understood the assignment. Is the Friday reboot secretly better than it gets credit for? And did Nightmare fail because it misunderstood Freddy, or because some things just shouldn’t be rebooted?Expect strong opinions, franchise loyalty clashes, and a final verdict that may upset at least one group of slasher fans.

This week we dive into a Christopher Lee vs. Peter Cushing double bill that proves the 70s were built different. It’s Creeping Flesh (1973) ,the story of a giant skeleton that may or may not bring doom, madness, and goo ,versus Horror Express (1972) ,the trans-Siberian creature feature where science, superstition, and a brain stealing alien duke it out aboard a very cursed train.We break down which film delivers the better monsters, the better mayhem, the better Cushing performance, and who rocks the superior “I am far too tired for this eldritch shite” energy. Expect: gothic melodrama, killer practical effects, Victorian guilt, alien possession, and Telly Savalas showing up in Horror Express like he wandered in from another movie and refused to leave.Which film truly rules the midnight-movie throne ,the slow-burn psychological horror of Creeping Flesh or the pulpy, creature-on-a-train madness of Horror Express?Grab your lantern, grab your microscope, and maybe don’t touch any suspicious bones.

This week we dive head first into the glitter soaked stupidity of Zoolander (2001) ,Ben Stiller’s cult comedy masterpiece that somehow combines male modeling, high-stakes brainwashing, and one of the greatest walk-offs in cinema history.We discuss how a movie about an air-headed supermodel trying to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia became a cornerstone of early-2000s comedy. We celebrate Will Ferrell’s unhinged Mugatu, Owen Wilson’s golden-haired peace guru Hansel, and a supporting cast that feels like every celebrity who accidentally wandered onto set.Is Zoolander still hysterical in 2025? Do the jokes land harder now that the fashion world is even dumber?

Along the way, we talk about the state of blockbuster cinema, why audiences keep turning up for big dumb fun, and whether franchises like The Meg are a symptom of Hollywood’s creative bankruptcy or proof that sometimes people just want to watch a massive shark eat billionaires.Grab your floaties , it’s going to be a messy swim.
