Fantastic Four (2015)

Episode #28 – Fantastic Four (2015) What happens when four people gain incredible powers...and then forget to bring a finished screenplay with and ending? This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we suit up and tackle the 2015 reboot of Fantastic Four—a film that somehow made stretching look painful and turned one of comics’ most beloved teams into the cinematic equivalent of an awkward family reunion. We dig into what went wrong, from the rushed pacing and undercooked characters to a villain who arrives so late he practically misses his own movie. Then we roll up our sleeves and rebuild the story from the cosmic rays up, crafting a version with stronger stakes, sharper humor, bigger adventure, and a team that actually feels fantastic. Whether you loved it, hated it, or just forgot it existed, join us as we prove that even one of Hollywood’s most notorious superhero misfires can be saved—with enough imagination, a little script surgery, and absolutely no trips to Planet Zero. Because every movie deserves a second chance… even this one.

Most Dangerous Game

Episode 27: Most Dangerous Game (2020) What happens when a deadly manhunt, a stacked cast, and a killer premise somehow still miss the target? In Episode 27 of I Can Fix Your Movie, we step into the urban jungle of Most Dangerous Game and ask the important question: why does every hunter in this movie act like they’ve never played hide-and-seek before? From wasted tension and rushed motivation to villains who needed way more bite, we break down exactly where the hunt went off the rails — and how we’d turn this great premise into a lean, mean survival classic. Expect deadly traps, smarter twists, stronger character arcs, and at least one pitch that would make the hunters need therapy afterward.

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.
