On this episode of Collateral Cinema: Beau, Robert, Ash, and new co-host Chazzle Dazzle (host of the Trial by Error Variety Show and previously a recurring special guest of ours) dig into Neil Breen's 2005 feature film debut Double Down, which is somehow even less coherent than his other works we've seen and reviewed.

Writer: Darrel Campbell (screenplay)
Stars: Marshall R Teague, Jennifer O'Neill, Fred Williamson
Release date: September 14, 2012

COLLAB: Victims and Villains (@VctmsAndVillans)
SHOWNOTES: Happy Holidays, listeners! We are excited to celebrate the season, although not nearly as passionate about it as the cast, crew, and characters of Last Ounce of Courage. Collateral Cinema teams up with Victims and Villains to riff on the 2012 universally panned American Christian Christmas drama movie / “War on Christmas” propaganda film. We dissect the flick’s absolute nonsense of a direction and complete lack of competent writing, and if you get a kick out of that, be ready for our take on Neil Breen’s Double Down!

SHOWNOTES: A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... we partnered up with guests from the SpyHards Podcast to talk the Star Wars prequels! With the fairly recent completion of the sequel trilogy, it's a great time to look back at George Lucas' polarizing Episodes I-III, and ask ourselves if these much maligned films were truly as sinful as the fanbase would have had us believe. Or is there a certain appeal to these cinematic additions to the Star Wars canon, ironic or otherwise? Was this sub-series' best value its contribution to meme culture as we know it, or is there something else in them for the millennial generation that grew up with this iteration of the franchise? In Part 1, we take a look at 1999's The Phantom Menace and 2002's Attack of the Clones. Where did these films stand at their premieres nearly twenty years after the original trilogy? Do they hold up today, two decades later? Find out now, and stay tuned for Part 2, where we discuss the final episode of the trilogy—Revenge of the Sith, along with its contemporary media! Now THIS is podcasting!
