171. Project Hail Mary

This week on episode #171 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Project Hail Mary, the biggest movie of 2026 so far. With huge expectations and a massive domestic release, it looks like the kind of space survival story audiences already understand, but that might not be what this movie actually is. We break down why Project Hail Mary works differently than expected, how it balances science fiction with emotion, and whether it lives up to the hype. We also talk about whether Punisher: One Last Kill is exactly what everyone expected, how The Walking Dead almost became a very different show, and whether Scream 7’s box office numbers are telling the full story. 📌 Chapters 00:00 - Punisher: One Last Kill is Exactly What We Expected 15:39 - The Walking Dead Was Almost Very Different and We Can't Get Over It 20:26 - Ghostbusters Fans Have A Lot To Be Excited About 23:36 - Are Scream 7's Box office Numbers a Lie? 28:35 - We Need A Break From Star Wars 39:32 - Project Hail Mary is The Biggest Domestic Film of 2026 41:46 - Project Hail Mary Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one! 💬 Did Project Hail Mary surprise you, or was it exactly the sci-fi movie you expected? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq [http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq] 🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/ [https://harshlanguage.tv/]

170. Pizza Movie

This week on episode #170 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Pizza Movie, a comedy that feels like it was ripped straight out of the 2000s studio comedy era. At a time when theatrical comedies are almost extinct, the movie clearly wants to bring back that chaotic, dumb-fun energy that used to dominate, but does it actually work? We break down whether the humor lands, why this style of comedy disappeared in the first place, and if audiences still even want movies like this anymore. We also talk about why Stephen King fans need to check out Widow’s Bay, and discuss why comic books still struggle to be taken seriously as a storytelling medium. 📌 Chapters 00:00 - Stephen King Fans Need To Watch Widow's Bay 06:50 - Is Robert Downey Jr Really Playing Dr Doom? 12:27 - People Still Don't Take Comic Books Seriously 19:12 - We Are Officially Out of The Writers Strike Era 23:45 - Pizza Movie Review 🔔Drop a follow so you don’t miss the next one! 💬 Does Pizza Movie bring back 2000s comedy films, or has that era passed for good? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq [http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq] 🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/ [https://harshlanguage.tv/]

169. They Live

This week on episode #169 of The Harsh Language Podcast, it's Marvin's first time watching They Live! It’s a movie most people think they already understand, but the deeper you go, the more unsettling it actually becomes. On the surface, it’s often reduced to a story about capitalism and consumerism, but we get into the much more uncomfortable idea at the core of the film. We break down why this movie still hits, what makes it so effective, and why it might be one of John Carpenter’s most misunderstood films. We also talk about whether Daredevil: Born Again is actually working, react to a wild X-Men rumor involving Jean Grey and Spider-Man, and discuss why something feels really suspicious about the reviews for the Michael Jackson biopic Michael. 📌 Chapters 00:00 - Is Daredevil: Born Again Good? 11:15 - This X-Men Rumor Might Confirm That Jean Grey Is in Spiderman 20:48 - Something Is Very Wrong With the Michael Reviews 33:01 - A Remake No One Asked For, and We Don't Need 38:37 - ANOTHER Remake No One Asked For, and We Don't Need 42:21 - They Live Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one! 💬 Do you think They Live is still relevant today, or do people overstate its message? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq [http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq] 🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/ [https://harshlanguage.tv/]
