S2E14 - Hudson Hawk

OK, so you're a film executive in 1991 trying to make a blockbuster hit. You have your bankable action star (Bruce Willis in the title role), your beautiful global locations (Rome! New York! Budapest!), your dastardly villain duo (Richard E. Grant and Sandra Bernhard), wild sets and massive explosions. But then you keep adding...music that makes no sense, actors who just dont...act (or do the opposite and OVERact), slapstick "jokes", weird sound effects, a conspiracy theory plot with so many twists and turns and double crosses it stops making sense, the FBI, the CIA, the Vatican (please, why are you still adding things), a love affair with a nun, AN ART HEIST, LEONARDO DAVINCI, AND A PLAN TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD BY INSTILLING FINANCIAL CHAOS? Seriously, how much do you think that would cost? Spoiler: a lot. Do you think it would be a successful film? Spoiler: Nope. Join your favorite podcasters as we dive into the Bruce Willis (ego)driven film Hudson Hawk, the third installment of our IT'S A DISASTER! Theme. We also cast ourselves as pivotal MTV-IA subversive, candybar-themed secret agents and talk a lot about Girl Scout cookies. It's either this, or hey, you could be swingin' on a star...
