Description
On this very special episode of Not A Bomb, the gang celebrates their three-year anniversary with a show dedicated to all thing’s grindhouse cinema. To cap it off, the guys dive deep into 2007’s epic theatrical bomb - Grindhouse. We couldn’t celebrate this anniversary without some help. So, we asked Sammy, “The Godfather of Grindhouse,” to join us and puts his knowledge on display. Released as an over three-hour experience, Grindhouse featured two full length films - Planet Terror and Death Proof from Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. Also, various other directors contributed fake move trailers to capture the traditional grindhouse theatrical experience. Sadly, this unique film experience flopped at the box office and prevented audiences from getting another experiment like Grindhouse for a long time. Before the timestamps, we have one last note. We at Not A Bomb thank you for your support over the past three years! This community is fantastic and we look forward to exploring more epic movie bombs with all of you.Timestamps: Intro - (2:15), Grindhouse Cinema talk - (5:32), Grindhouse Film origin story - (20:20), Box Office Results and Critical Response - (24:57), Why Did it Bomb? - (28:49), Planet Terror Key People - (39:53), Planet Terror Discussion - (42:16), Commercial Break - (69:04), Grindhouse Trailer Talk - (71:44), Death Proof Key People - (75:10), Death Proof Discussion - (79:04), Is it a Bomb? - (110;37), RoboReviewer1000 - (118:00), Shoutouts! - (122:25), and Outro - (132:09)Planet Terror is directed by Robert Rodriguez and stars Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodruguez, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, Jeff Fahey, Micheal Biehn, Bruce Willis, Naveen Andrews, Fergie, Tom Savini, Julio Oscar Mechoso, Nicky Katt, Michael Parks, and Quentin TarantinoDeath Proof is directed by Quentin Tarantino and stars Kurt Russell, Zoe Bell, Rosario Dawson, Vanessa Ferlito, Sydney Tamilia Poitier, Tracie Thoms, Rose McGowan, Jordan Lann, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Michael Parks, Quentin Tarantino, James Parks, and Jonathan LoughranIf you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.
