About That Action

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, Hulk Hogan Truthers, Tom Pays Attention, Slow Cook Pasta

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters came out in 2013 to more or less middling reviews but the fellas think they were DEAD wrong! Sit back and listen to what the boys thought of this box office smash hit yet somehow criminally overlooked action/adventure. 

Highlander. Josh's Awesome Costume Ideas. Tickle Me, MacLeod. Direct Deposit

The Boys cover an absolute action classic with Highlander. Unanimously loved by all 3 of the fellas, this movie does not have the expected Goldie Locks scenario of opinions like we have come to love and appreciate. This movie is a banger through and through and even on a time crunch, they deliver one hell of an episode. So sit back, assemble your sword, do some pushups, and crank up that volume for About That Action.

Solomon Kane. Technical Difficulties. Peter North To The Future. Chared Leto. Theo Von Chats With Max Von Sydow

On episode 2 of the fantasy block of films, the gang covers Solomon Kane from 2010. Although not considered a fantasy classic by any means, still an overall solid sword and sorcery tale of a former violent pirate turned holy man in search of a girl he swore to protect. So pop in those headphones, sharpen your cutlas, and prepare for some grim fantasy with About That Action.

13th Warrior. Real Bread Heads. Daddy V Daddy. UNICOIN is the SAFEST Crypto Currency

Kicking off the fantasy block of films was Marsh's suggestion for 13th Warrior. A film about an Arab man living amongst Vikings and helping them to vanquish a seemingly impossible evil. This movie was overall favored by the group and now YOU the listener can find out why. So sit back and turn up those headphones, crack your knuckles, sharpen your blade, and get ready to be About That Action.

Expendables 4. Magnus Cums Loud. PS2 Graphics. Action Hero Drink. Marsh Hates Rizzler

Unfortunately for the squad, we watched Expendables 4, but luckily for listeners it ended up being a much more fun conversation. The final installment of The Expendables unfortunately crashes the plane after riding the high of 3 but the fellas' collective frustration shines through with one of the most EXPLOSIVE and CONTROVERSIAL episodes to date. Join the pod as they discuss potential nicknames, rewrites, and tons of other nonsense on this weeks episode of About That Action.

Expendables 3. Piccolos Cloaca. SNL Effect. Gibson's Voicemails

The fellas are getting close to finishing out the Expendables block with a high point for The Expendables 3. Although made to be PG-13, it more than makes up for the lack of blood and guts with far more interesting dialogue and fleshed out characters. Action movies are often times defined by the villain and Expendables 3 delivers with (the otherwise level headed and kind) Mel Gibson as Conrad Stonebanks. Tune in to the episode to find out what makes Conrad a worthy adversary for Barney Ross and how the new class of Expendables adds up to the ones we all know and love. All that and more on About That Action!

Expendables 2. Bald Dan Argument. Josh's Failed Cult. Marsh's Dad Gives Karate Advice

In the follow up to the blockbuster hit The Expendables, they raise the bar in every way. The fellas absolutely loved this addition to the franchise and in a rare instance, is better than the original. With much more fleshed out character work, bigger action pieces, and a more recognizable and compelling villain, this is one of the best sequels to an action franchise to date. Pop in those earbuds, load up the barbell, and listen to this high octane coverage on About That Action.

The Expendables 1. Tom's Annoying Voice. Redpill Heel Turn. Stallone Appreciation Society.

About That Action is proud to shoot their wad early in the show by covering the most on the nose action series in existence with The Expendables. A four movie bullet riddled explosion fest that features the absolute pantheon of action stars from the 80s and 90s. Starring Sly Stallone and appearances by Arnold, Bruce Willis, Jet Li, and pod favorite Dolph Ludgren, this series really raises the bar and puts a nice bow on the action films of old. So sit back and turn up the volume and hang out with the fellas from About That Action as we cover the first in this non stop test fest.

The Marine. Bald Dan's Suggestions. Orange Juice Heads. Comedy Rule of Threes.

In 2006, WWE productions joined the war effort to put out a movie that would help the army smash through its recruitment goals for the year and that movie was The Marine (purely correlative). The fellas from About That Action join forces to discuss this absolutely bizarre "action" fest. Tom, Josh, and Marsh all go full blown Goldie Locks and the three bears about this film for your listening entertainment. As John Cena runs through the swamps and does stuff that ultimately doesn't matter at all, you can sit back and listen to the fellas argue about whether this is worth the watch or not. If you don't know much about the movie then turn up that volume and learn all... About That Action.

The Condemned (kinda). An interview With Indie Wrestler Craig Mitchell.

On this episode of About That Action, the fellas were lucky to have on a Chicago local legend in the indie wrestling scene Craig Mitchell come through the studio (Josh's apartment) to discuss what it's like in the ring, the dos and don'ts of wrestling, and just what makes wrestling worth watching. So if you're a fan of the Condemned this episode might be lacking for you, but if you like wrestling or just want to know why people like it, tune in and turn up for an extended episode with an interview with Craig Mitchell.
