Multimedia Failure 58 – Max Payne

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero are wishing they had the ability to use bullet time so they could blast through this confusing take on Max Payne. It’s not the furthest a movie has veered from its source material, but it certainly took a swing at it. Support us on Patreon! Follow us on […]

Multimedia Failure 55 – Hitman

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero are checking out a movie that is at least in the same ballpark as the source material. Hitman is more like a Bourne movie than a Hitman game, but at least the delightful Timothy Olyphant is in it (even if he is a bit miscast). Support us on […]

Multimedia Failure 54 – Resident Evil: Extinction

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero go back to some happier stuff and watch Resident Evil: Extinction. It’s bad when a movie about humanity and nearly all life on earth being wiped out with the environment collapsing is less of an emotional slog to get through than Postal, but that’s where our lives are. […]

Multimedia Failure 47 – Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea

We’re back in “the world of Pokémon” as we watch Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea. Does adding a Pokémon Ranger change how how much of the heavy lifting that Ash and the gang have to do?

Multimedia Failure 46 – Like A Dragon: Prologue (with Brian Shea)

This week, we’re joined by a special guest, Brian Shea of Game Informer! Brian joins us to talk about Like A Dragon: Prologue, a prequel movie of sorts to the first Yakuza game. How did a movie that’s based on a game that really hadn’t found its identity yet turn out? Tune in and find […]

Multimedia Failure 45 – Forbidden Siren

This week, we’re watching what might be the movie with the most unrealized potential, Forbidden Siren. There’s a good movie (or two, or three) in here somewhere, but what’s here serves as an adequate mess at its best. If you’re new here, we’re throwing in our bonus segment at the end that’s normally reserved for […]

Multimedia Failure 43 – DOOM (with Luke Maxwell)

Luke Maxwell joins Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero for his first appearance on Multimedia Failure! We’re watching something with The Rock again. Does DOOM hold a candle a Rampage? How has that first person sequence aged? And most importantly, how does The Rock (2005) compare to The Rock (2018) for Vanessa? Support us […]

Multimedia Failure 42 – House of the Dead 2

This week, Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero (blessedly) wrap up watching the House of the Dead series, How does it stack up against the absolute worst thing we’ve seen, the first House of the Dead? Well…. Support us on Patreon! Theme song composed by Megan Carnes. Logo designed by Vanessa Cahill. Subscribe and […]

Multimedia Failure 41 – Rampage (with Daniel Kaufman)

This week, Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero are joined by a very special guest, Daniel Kaufman! Daniel is the host of one of Jason’s favorite podcasts, so we let him pick what we were watching this week. We skipped ahead quite a few years to 2018’s Rampage. Have video game movies improved in […]

Multimedia Failure 2020 Summer Special – The Thing (1982)
