🎬 Welcome back to We’re Too Literary! 🎬
Who would have thought we'd find humor in a character's complete disregard for tornado warnings only to be hilariously proven wrong amid chaos? The scene where skepticism turns into panic had us rolling, especially when the skeptic finally recognizes the impending doom of a tornado.
This episode dives deep into the tornado-filled sequel, "Twisters" (2024), as we dissect every tornado twist and character turn. There is much to reimagine, from Kenny's vision of a more menacing antagonist whose greed leads to their demise to Jonathan's proposals for stronger ties between the two films. We also couldn't help but chuckle at the film's occasional realism, like characters donning goggles that were never seen again, contrasted with their inexplicable safety abandonments.
Of course, we'd push the boundaries to add more intensity and plot connections. Enhancing the thriller elements, boosting secondary character arcs, and refining Javi's storyline are just a few ways we'd amp up the narrative impact.

“Imagine a toy so advanced, you’d think it was built by the masterminds behind Terminator. Jonathan couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of a LEGO piece causing the apocalypse as we dive deep into the chaotic world of ‘M3GAN.’
This episode is an explorative dissection of 2022’s M3GAN, where we discuss everything from malfunctioning AI to the eerie charm of Purrpetual Petz. Tune in as we debate the movie’s slasher elements, relive our childhood trauma from horror classics like ‘Leprechaun’ and ‘Blade,’ and suggest improvements to M3GAN’s malfunction scene. What if M3GAN was more responsible and driven by a sense of purpose? And how about those safety protocols? We cover it all, including setting preferences and potential crossovers with the Terminator and Chucky franchises.
Of course, we couldn’t stop brainstorming a sequel where Megan’s consciousness wreaks havoc in a theme park, potentially elevating the slasher narrative to new heights. Whether it’s critiquing character motivations, giggling over the impracticality of dangerous wet toys, or imagining a more gruesome series of events, we leave no stone unturned.

Join us for a rollicking discussion about the "Borderlands" movie adaptation, where Jonathan and Kenny dive into how the film missed the mark compared to its video game origins.

Jonathan and Kenny dissect everything—how the storyline clashed with fans' expectations, why Claptrap's antics left us cringing, and ways we think the movie could have truly captured the essence of "Borderlands."

It's not every day you hear someone suggest, "Let's cut out part of the Deadpool Corps fight for more Wolverine and Sabertooth action," but that's exactly how Kenny kicks off our dissection of the 2024 cinematic smash-up "Deadpool & Wolverine." The movie delivered a solid mix of action, comedy, and surprisingly sincere moments, but we couldn't help but feel it needed a heftier dose of gravitas.
In this episode, we dive deep into the absurdity of the characters' survival antics, their outlandish costumes, and the slightly underwhelming finale that left Jonathan calling it a "bit of a cop-out." While we were enthralled by the appearance of various Deadpool versions—Lady Poole, Nicepool, Dogpool, and Kidpool—the highlight was undoubtedly Channing Tatum's Gambit, whose Cajun accent had us in stitches. However, we ponder how the film might benefit from increased stakes and more serious storytelling elements, especially if future sequels want to avoid burnout.
We also dissect the convoluted timelines and confusing universe(s) brought on by the involvement of characters like Cassandra Nova and the Time Ripper, plus a few memorable cameos including an unexpected return of Wesley Snipes as Blade. Join us for an entertaining critique, where we'll also touch on how to bolster the narrative’s serious undertones without compromising its chaotically fun vibe.

"But where else can you see Sean Connery as King Agamemnon fighting a Minotaur?" Kenny quips, and that's just the start of our deep dive into the wacky world of "Time Bandits" (1981). This episode unravels the whimsical, disjointed, and absolutely unpredictable plot of this Terry Gilliam classic.
We share our initial skepticism about a kid like Kevin diving into history with time-traveling dwarves, only to find ourselves chuckling at the absurdity and questioning the lack of consequences for their timeline-altering antics. From parents more interested in kitchen gadgets than their own son to the delightfully odd appearance of historical figures like Robin Hood, we dissect it all. We also bring our own ideas to the table—how about integrating historical figures into Kevin's everyday life? Or perhaps a more conclusive ending with Fireman Agamemnon stepping in as Kevin's guardian?
And don’t miss our lively debate over the movie's length and our take on modernizing this tale while maintaining its crafty, dream-like essence. Grab your history book and prep your time machine for a ride through this bizarre and whimsical narrative!

"How did we get to a fireworks accident causing total character redundancy?" That moment had us laughing in disbelief as we tried to make sense of the critical plot flaws in the latest Spider-Man universe movie.
This episode dives into the tangled web of poor storytelling choices in "Madame Web (2023)." From the befuddling female spider names and inexplicable timeline issues to the severely underutilized characters like Spider-Woman, we unpack every misstep that leaves the audience scratching their heads. We even floated our ideas on how the story could've better spotlighted sidelined characters and delved into more dynamic and meaningful narratives. Think Spider-Woman is at the forefront, with Madame Web as a pivotal supporting character.
Naturally, no review would be complete without touching on the film's questionable character development, or lack thereof, and critiquing the decisions behind focusing on a character with underwhelming powers. And, of course, we question why a character with precognition didn't foresee her own catastrophic injury.
Join us as we navigate through Sony's uneven attempts at expanding their Spider-Man universe, discussing the flaws, frustrations, and potential improvements for future iterations. Plus, hear our take on how Marvel crossovers and a more engaging cast could save this tangled web of a film.

Why would a General in future Earth's military enlist the help of an untrained analyst to stop the biggest A.I. threat humanity has ever encountered??
It's moments like these that had us questioning everything about Netflix's new original Sci-Fi movie, Atlas.
In this episode, we dive deep into the layers of this sci-fi spectacle, critiquing everything from plot holes to bizarre character choices. Jonathan and Kenny dissect the movie's lack of coherence, its campy moments reminiscent of a 90s B-movie, and the wildly inconsistent use of AI technology. We weigh in on Jennifer Lopez's performance and the Arc suits that seem inspired by Titanfall Titans and Pacific Rim Jaegers. Hell, one type of Titan in Titanfall is called an Atlas-class Titan! They couldn't have been more on the nose.
Trust us; our suggestions for a Titanfall-inspired prequel might just be the redemption arc Atlas needs.
From analyzing the A.I. motivations to discussing why any analyst would lead a defense team, we leave no stone unturned. Tune in for a hilarious and critical breakdown, where we imagine better character development and more sensible plotlines. If you've ever shaken your head at a movie and thought, "I could write that better," this episode is for you.

Hey there, adventure seekers! This week, your hosts Kenny and Jonathan dive deep into the exhilarating (and somewhat convoluted) world of Indiana Jones in his latest escapade, "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." 🕵️♂️ Prepare for laughs, heated debates, and a few head-scratching moments as we unravel the mysteries of this new adventure.
