The Overdue Homework Podcast

2025's Summer of Sequels continues with The Lost World. Jurassic Park 2 or JP2 as I like to call it is up.

The Lost World is basically Jeff Goldblum cashing a paycheck while dinosaurs remind everyone why humans should stop messing with cloning. The plot? Corporate greed drags everyone back to Dino Island™ because apparently getting eaten alive the first time wasn’t clear enough. Then, in a bold move, the movie turns into Godzilla J...

2025's Summer of Sequels continues with D2 the Mighty Ducks

In D2: The Mighty Ducks, Coach Bombay trades in his integrity for a slick haircut and a Team USA jacket, leading his scrappy misfits to an international hockey tournament that somehow includes Iceland as the villain. The kids, now suddenly elite athletes, juggle fame, fashion, and blatant product placement like it's their actual sport. Along the way, they bond with new tea...

2025's Summer of Sequels continues:

TMNT II: The Secret of the Ooze doubles down on mutant mayhem and halves the edge of the original, trading nunchucks for dad jokes. The turtles discover their gooey origins while battling Shredder, who somehow survives being crushed and upgrades into a sparkly rage monster. Instead of fan-favorites Bebop and Rocksteady, we get Tokka and Rahzar—basically a wolf and snapping turtle on bath salts. O...

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation is like watching your favorite video game get adapted by a group of stunt doubles on their lunch break. The plot crashes through scenes like a drunk Raiden—loud, confusing, and dressed in questionable white linen. Characters pop in, say their names, do a flip, and immediately die like they're in a fatality-themed improv class. It's less of a sequel and more of a 90-minute cutscene from hell where nobody ...

Jim Carrey flails, contorts, and screams his way through Miami as Ace Ventura, a pet detective with the fashion sense of a tropical bird and the social grace of an unleashed ferret. When the Miami Dolphins’ mascot, Snowflake, goes missing, along with quarterback Dan Marino, Ace embarks on a ridiculous, logic-defying investigation full of wild animal hijinks, and the kind of slapstick that only Carrey can deliver. Along the way, he ...

The Terminator is the story of a woman who wakes up to find out that not only is the future doomed, but *she* is the reason it might survive — if she can live long enough. A soulless machine in human skin hunts her through a city that couldn’t care less, and her only ally is a soldier from a broken future who’s barely holding himself together. As bodies pile up and reality collapses around her, Sarah Connor learns that destiny isn’...

A ragtag team of American martial artists—led by a ponytailed Eric Roberts and a stoic James Earl Jones—must set aside their egos, injuries, and personal demons to take on the seemingly invincible South Korean taekwondo team. Packed with slow-motion kicks, emotional brooding, and an unexpected dose of heart, Best of the Best punches above its weight as a sports drama. It’s not just about winning—it's about honor, redemption, and sq...

In Mouse Hunt (1997), two hapless brothers inherit a decrepit mansion, only to discover its real tenant—a cunning little mouse who refuses to be evicted. What begins as a simple pest problem spirals into a slapstick war of escalating traps, chaos, and destruction. The brothers’ dreams of auctioning the house for millions clash hilariously with the mouse's unyielding determination to stay put. Packed with clever gags and absurdly in...

When New York cop John McClane heads to L.A. to patch things up with his estranged wife during her office Christmas party, he expects awkward small talk, not a terrorist takeover. Armed with nothing but a sense of justice and a festive lack of footwear, he turns Nakatomi Plaza into the world’s most violent holiday gathering. As Hans Gruber tries to play Santa with a bag full of hostages, McClane delivers presents of exploding C4 an...

Harry Tasker balances a double life as a globe-trotting secret agent and a suburban dad, with only his wisecracking partner Gib knowing the truth. When Helen, Harry's adventure-starved wife, falls for Simon, a sleazy used car salesman posing as a spy, Harry’s covert world unravels in spectacular fashion. Dragging Helen—and a hapless Simon—into a high-stakes mission, Harry battles terrorists, tango lessons, and marriage counseling, ...

In Basic Instinct, a San Francisco detective, Nick Curran, dives into a steamy murder investigation, only to find himself entangled with the alluring but dangerous author Catherine Tramell, who may or may not have literally written the book on killing people with ice picks. As Nick navigates the seductive mystery, he finds himself in scenes so intense that crossing his legs might be a hazard. The investigation spirals as he becomes...

In Friday the 13th (1980), a group of unsuspecting camp counselors at the infamous Camp Crystal Lake are stalked and picked off one by one by a vengeful killer. As the counselors blissfully ignore the camp's dark history, the bodies pile up faster than you can say "summer fun." With every eerie creak and ominous rustle in the woods, it becomes clear that some legends never die—they just get more creative with their weaponry. By the...

In "The Mighty Ducks" (1992), a cocky lawyer, Gordon Bombay, finds himself sentenced to community service coaching a ragtag youth hockey team. With zero skills and even less confidence, the kids – and their reluctant coach – are the underdogs of the ice rink. But with a little teamwork, some clever quacking, and a whole lot of heart, they just might skate their way to victory. It's a classic tale of redemption, slapshots, and learn...

Rev your engines and buckle up as we dive into the high-octane world of Days of Thunder. Tom Cruise stars as a hotshot NASCAR driver who’s fast on the track but slow on life’s turns. From the fiery rivalries to the iconic racing scenes, this movie is like *Top Gun* on wheels—complete with the same amount of leather jackets and ego.  Whether you're a speed freak or just along for the ride, this episode is your pit stop for all thing...
