Multimedia Failure 59 – Dead Space: Downfall

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero are severing limbs and getting weirdly religious in Dead Space: Downfall, the prequel movie to the first Dead Space game. Support us on Patreon!

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 51 – Pokémon: The Rise of Darkrai

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero are jumping into the fourth generation of Pokémon by watching Pokémon: The Rise of Darkrai. It introduces a fair amount of new Pokémon and dumps May and Max in favor of Dawn. Dawn is not only less annoying than May and Max, but she also has Piplup as […]

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 44 – BloodRayne

Ah yes, another Uwe Boll joint. Is there anyway there’s something salvageable buried in this movie? I mean, Ben Kingsley, Michelle Rodriguez, Billy Zane, and Michael Madsen are in it. Can they possibly elevate something this horny into something watchable? And alas, another Michelle Rodriguez gone. Support us on Patreon! Theme song composed by Megan […]

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 […]
