March 01, 2022 23:19 - 31 minutes - 29.3 MB

The boys are back from a well-needed week off, only to face perhaps their greatest challenge yet.

After a mixed reception to Star Trek: The Motion Picture, the boys are ready to give sci-fi's second greatest franchise another chance as they discuss what has become a favorite amongst fans of the genre. As it turns out, all you have to do to make a good Star Trek film is hire a director who doesn't care about the show, cut the budget in half, and make William Shatner feel insecure about his age.

February 15, 2022 17:43 - 33 minutes - 30.9 MB

Son of the Mask (Lawrence Guterman, 2005)

February 09, 2022 00:22 - 40 minutes - 37.8 MB

For our first "most hated" film of LoMo's Most Wanted, Aaron has selected the first film he remembers having the self-awareness to hate in theaters. He was 10. But is the movie as bad as he remembers, or is Jamie Kennedy misunderstood? Spoiler alert: the movie is still quite bad.

Making movies is hard. Making independent films is even harder. That's why Lo & Mo are choosing to say that this week's film is...challenging. It's the age-old story of the stoner genius and the promiscuous gen ed student drunkenly hooking up and missing the evacuation of Earth. It's also a Terminator parody, kind of.
