I Can Fix Your Movie

Wicked: For Good

Episode 26: Wicked: For Good Our 50th Episode Spectacular!!!! What happens when one witch gets canceled, the other gets promoted, and absolutely everyone starts singing their trauma? This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we celebrate our 50th episode by hopping aboard the broomstick for Wicked: For Good and asking the important questions: Can a sequel survive on pure emotional damage and high notes? Does Oz have a functioning legal system? And how many slow-motion cape turns are too many slow-motion cape turns? We dive deep into the emerald-colored chaos, untangle the friendship drama, patch up the plot holes with industrial-strength “magic” glue, and attempt the impossible: fixing a movie that already thinks it’s perfect. Expect big laughs, bigger rewrites, and at least one completely necessary angry producer tangent. For our 50th episode, we’re going bigger, louder, and dramatically staring into the middle distance while orchestral music swells behind us. If you’ve ever wanted Wicked to be sharper, stranger, funnier, or just slightly less dependent on gravity-defying eye contact, congratulations — you’re our kind of nerd.

R.I.P.D. : Rest In Peace Department

Episode 25 – R.I.P.D. Welcome to the afterlife… where the paperwork is endless, the CGI is questionable, and even Jeff Bridges cowboy hilarity can’t save this MIB wanna-be. This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we dig up R.I.P.D. — the supernatural buddy-cop movie that somehow took Ryan Reynolds, undead monsters, a killer premise, and a mountain of studio money… and still ended up legally classified as cinematic paranormal activity. We break down where the movie flatlined, why the world building is all over the ghost dimension, and how this Men in Black-meets-Ghostbusters concept could’ve actually become a franchise worth resurrecting. Grab your ghost slaying bullets, report to the Rest In Peace Department, and prepare for an investigation into one of Hollywood’s weirdest missed opportunities.

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.
