EP31 - Speed 2: Cruise Control

June 18, 2017

  That's right! Speed 2. As in the sequel to the 1994 mega-hit Speed. This sequel has all the key ingredients of the original except instead of focusing on a bus that's forced to move fast or else it'll explode, this movie takes place on a cruise ship that's NOT rigged to blow and that moves very, very, very slow...and even comes to a complete stop! Oh, and Keanu Reeves isn't in it. But other than that, it's exactly like the original that you know and love. Join us as we try to unravel the logistics of contracting copper poisoning from computer waves, the reason why this movie is so damn focused on Sandra Bullock's character trying to pass her driver's exam, the exact meaning of "ship-shopping" and the untold story of the villain's day-to-day corporate grind as a cruise ship software developer. Special thanks to Owen Geoghegan for picking this week's bad movie!!
