Innerspace

Innerspace

Episode 24: Innerspace This week, I Can Fix Your Movie shrinks itself down to microscopic size to tackle the gloriously chaotic 1987 sci-fi comedy classic Innerspace. Join us as we dive headfirst into a movie that somehow combines miniaturized submarines, corporate espionage, Dennis Quaid’s maximum-80s energy, Martin Short having a full nervous breakdown, and science that appears to have been invented five minutes before filming started. We break down what makes Innerspace such a weirdly lovable cult classic, what still works, what absolutely doesn’t, and how we’d fix the movie without accidentally injecting ourselves into someone’s bloodstream along the way. It’s part sci-fi adventure, part comedy, part Martin Short fever dream, and 100% the kind of movie that could only exist in the 80s… and probably only in the 80s. So grab your tiny submarine, avoid the digestive tract, and join us for another episode of I Can Fix Your Movie.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

Episode 23: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen What happens when you combine Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, Dracula’s ex-girlfriend, an invisible creep, Dr. Jekyll, Dorian Gray, Tom Sawyer for absolutely no reason, and Sean Connery giving 110% Scottish disappointment? You get The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen — one of the most gloriously overstuffed action movies ever created. In Episode 23 of I Can Fix Your Movie, we dive headfirst into the Literary Avengers fever dream that somehow managed to turn one of the coolest concepts ever into a cinematic train wreck. We break down what worked, what absolutely didn’t, and how this movie could’ve become an all-time steampunk action classic instead of the film that reportedly made Sean Connery quit acting. From baffling character choices to missed world-building opportunities, we rebuild the League into the epic adventure it always should’ve been.

Lucy

Episode 22: Lucy What if unlocking 100% of your brain still couldn’t unlock a better storyline? This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we plug into Lucy—the film that asked “what if humans used more of their brain?” and then immediately used none of it to explain the plot. From disappearing stakes to a finale that turns into a cosmic USB drive, we break down how a high-concept sci-fi thriller somehow outran its own logic at superhuman speed. We keep the slick style, the wild ambition, but we add the heart and rebuild the story with actual tension, clearer rules, and a protagonist whose journey makes sense. If you’ve ever wondered how Lucy could go from “wait…what?” to “oh wow, that works,” this is the episode for you.

From the World of John Wick: Ballerina

Episode 21: From the World of John Wick: Ballerina In a world where assassins have better posture than most of us, Ballerina pirouettes into the John Wick universe with grace, grit, and a blood soaked body count. This week, we lace up our pointe shoes and step into the chaos to break down what works, what wobbles, and what completely faceplants. We dig into the film’s story, characters, and action (and there was a lot of it) to ask the big question: does this spin-off stick the landing, or does it miss the mark by a mile? Along the way, we pitch our fixes, sharpen the stakes, and maybe add a little more kick to the choreography (both literal and narrative). If you’ve ever wondered how to make a revenge thriller hit as hard as a Wick headshot, this episode is for you. Join us as we try to turn Ballerina into a performance worthy of a standing ovation… or at least fewer confused looks from the audience.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Episode 20: Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter What if the 16th President didn’t just free the slaves—but also staked the undead? In this blood-soaked and bizarre episode of I Can Fix Your Movie, we sink our teeth into Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, the genre-blending spectacle that dares to ask: “What if history had more axe wielding presidents and fewer facts?” Join us as we dissect the film’s ambitious premise, celebrate its over-the-top action, and tackle the narrative missteps that kept it from becoming a true cult classic. From sharpening Lincoln’s emotional arc to reworking the villainous vampire conspiracy, we pitch bold, cinematic fixes that could transform this presidential power fantasy into a legendary blockbuster. Whether you’re a fan of alternative history, vampire lore, or just love seeing movies reimagined, this episode is one you won’t want to miss. Grab your top hat and silver-tipped axe—it’s time to fix history.
