2x24 - Green Lantern Pitch Meeting
May 16, 2018
Long before Ryan Reynolds squeezed into the red spandex to play Wade Wilson in Deadpool and Deadpool 2 he starred in 2011’s Green Lantern… which bombed pretty hard. The movie was supposed to be the start of a DC film universe in order to compete with Marvel, but it fell on its face and Warner Bros tried again a few years later with Man of Steel. So what went wrong with Green Lantern? Why did the movie with the talent of Ryan Reynolds, Taika Waititi, Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Tim Robbins and more get so panned by critics and fans? Why was Parallax a CLOUD?! Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all!
2x25 - X-Men Origins: Wolverine Pitch Meeting
May 19, 2018
Did you ever wonder what in the world the studio was thinking when they created Deadpool for X-Men Origins: Wolverine? So were we! So we stepped into the pitch meeting that started it all, and broke down the entire thought process behind the movie to answer all the questions we know you've been asking yourselves for years. How does Deadpool bend his arms with two giant swords embedded in them? What is Wolverine's relationship with Striker and why did he allow him to experiment on him with adamantium? And perhaps most importantly, where did Wolverine get that TIGHT leather jacket?!
2x26 - Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace Pitch Meeting
May 23, 2018
Star Wars has come a long way since the original trilogy, and most people really like the new films following Rey, as well as the standalone prequel films that Lucasfilm has been putting out. But in order to get here, we had to go through a painful prequel trilogy in the late 90s and early 2000s. George Lucas took us on a CGI-filled ride and not everyone liked it. How did the prequel trilogy go so wrong? Why is it so focused on politics? Why does Jar Jar Binks exist? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all!
2x27 - Deadpool 2 Pitch Meeting
May 26, 2018
Deadpool 2 is out and people seem to really enjoy the return of Wade Wilson, The Merc With A Mouth. But can one joke about lazy writing make all the silly stuff about the movie’s plot okay? The answer of course is yes. Step inside the pitch meeting that lead to some of the weirdest moments of Deadpool 2 and some Juggernaut-sized plot holes.
2x28 - Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Pitch Meeting
May 30, 2018
Disney seems to be in full-on Star Wars mode, releasing a new movie every year since The Force Awakens in 2015. 2016 brought us Rogue One: A Star Wars Story that followed Jyn Erso and her crew of Rebels as they tried to steal the plans to the Death Star. But how exactly did that movie come to be? How did they settle on making a movie about a little line in the text crawl for A New Hope? What about bringing Peter Cushing back from the dead via CGI? Why does every character die in an explosion? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all.
2x29 - Solo: A Star Wars Story Pitch Meeting
June 2, 2018
Solo: A Star Wars Story is in theaters, proving that Disney is committed to popping out Star Wars movie after Star Wars movie. The movie follows Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, Qi’Ra and more characters as they go on a bunch of heists and fly around in the Millenium Falcon. But how exactly did this movie come to be? Why did they have to give an origin to everything Han Solo has ever done? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all.
2x30 - Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson Pitch Meeting
June 6, 2018
Smelling what The Rock is cooking is TIGHT! Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is one of the biggest movie stars working today (quite literally.) But what if somebody had never heard of him? How would you pitch him and describe his career? Would you mentioned that he’s done kind of a lot of JUNGLE movies (Jumanji, The Rundown, Journey 2) or movies where buildings fall (Skyscraper, San Andreas) -- or maybe movies where jungle animals make buildings fall (Rampage)? What about his similar kids movies, or his movies with Kevin Hart? Step inside a pitch meeting where an agent tries to pitch Dwayne Johnson to a studio exec from Disney!
2x31 - Jurassic Park Pitch Meeting
June 9, 2018
Ever wonder how Jurassic Park came to be? What was up with John Hammond being the worst person in the world. Or with the sudden 50 foot drop in the T-Rex enclosure-- or the super easy barely an inconvenience arrival of the ninja T-Rex to save the day from a group of raptors? Step inside the pitch meeting that led to multiple sequels and a new reboot ‘Jurassic World’ starring Chris Pratt!
2x32 - Sausage Party Pitch Meeting
June 13, 2018
Ever wonder how Seth Rogen’s insane animated comedy Sausage Party came to be? How was an R-Rated movie about talking sausages and food items approved by Hollywood. What are the two kinds of jokes that Rogen decided to go with? What’s up with the Great Beyond-- what is it a metaphor for? Why did they allow food to be ruined for us for eternity? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all!
2x33 - The Lego Movie Pitch Meeting
June 16, 2018
How did The Lego Movie come to be, let alone become a critically acclaimed hit? Is the entire movie just one big commercial and product placement? You bet it is! Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all, and launched the entire LEGO movie universe-- securing some voice acting work for Chris Pratt, Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman for years to come!
2x34 - The Walking Dead Pitch Meeting
June 20, 2018
The Walking Dead is one of the most popular shows in television history, but despite cool characters like Rick, Carl, Daryl and Michonne, as well as a bunch of awesome zombies (sorry, walkers!) the show has started to struggle. Some fans are getting tired of the repetitive storylines, the constant mid-season and end-of-season cliffhangers--- and this whole mess with Negan just isn’t as satisfying as some earlier seasons. But what if all of that was by design? Step inside the offices of AMC for the pitch meeting that started it all!
2x35 - Harry Potter Movie Franchise Pitch Meeting
June 23, 2018
Harry Potter is one of the most beloved franchises of all time, based on one of the most beloved book series of all time. The world of wizardry is pretty insane when you take a step back and try to explain it, and that’s exactly what (probably) happened during the pitch meeting to Warner Bros. What’s up with Quidditch? The Time Turner? Why do students get sent into the FORBIDDEN Forest? Why is everything so dangerous, and why does Voldemort suck at planning? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all.
2x36 - Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Pitch Meeting
June 27, 2018
Jurassic World was a massive box office hit in 2016, so naturally we now have a sequel. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sees Chris Pratt and his character Animal-Loving-Navy-Guy reunite with Bryce Dallas Howard’s Money-Lady (who is now Dinosaur Loving Lady, because reasons) They head back to Isla Nubar to save the dinos from a giant volcano that’s about to erupt. Kind of a big oversight for John Hammond to have built Jurassic Park on a volcano, but whatever! There are a lot of plot holes and questionable decisions into Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom - and we’d like to think they all originated from the pitch meeting itself! So step inside the pitch meeting that led to the latest installment in the Jurassic Park franchise.
2x37 - The Incredibles 2 Pitch Meeting
June 30, 2018
After 14 years, an Incredibles sequel is finally here. It was great to catch up with Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl, Dash, Violet, Frozone and especially Jack Jack. Incredibles 2 had some amazing action, incredible VFX and some pretty hilarious moments. But since this is Hollywood and nothing is perfect, there were also a couple of things about it that didn’t make too much sense. Like what was up with Winston and Elevyn Deavor? How come the movie had pretty much the same premise as the first one? Why did they just re-do Violet’s arc from the first movie, and what’s up with Dash and buttons? Let’s step inside the pitch meeting that started it all!
2x38 - Chris Pratt Pitch Meeting
July 4, 2018
What if you had to explain the success of Chris Pratt to someone who had never heard of him? The superstar has had a pretty great career, but before stepping into the MCU as Star Lord in the Guardians of the Galaxy films and the Avengers, he actually spent a whole lot of time playing lovable dummies on TV -- not to mention living in a van in Hawaii. Check out his agent describing everything the actor has done and his massive weight gains and losses throughout the years. Will the movie executive cast him in something new? It WOULD be super easy, barely an inconvenience if he did!
2x39 - Ant-Man and the Wasp Pitch Meeting
July 7, 2018
Ant-Man and the Wasp is Marvel’s first film to come out after the insanity that was Avengers: Infinity War just a few months ago. Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Pena and Michael Douglas provide us with some pretty hilarious moments and action scenes in this sequel to 2015’s Ant-Man… just don’t think about it too much. The quantum realm is the latest plot tool that Marvel is throwing our way after the magical Vibranium in Black Panther and the millions of timelines in Infinity War. How did this movie come to be exactly? Step inside the pitch meeting that started it all.
2x40 - Game of Thrones Pitch Meeting
July 11, 2018
Game of Thrones on HBO is one of the most popular shows in television history based on the massively successful book series A Song of Ice And Fire by George RR Martin. Fans can't wait to see what lies in store for Season 8-- will Jon and Danearys realize that they're related? Will someone finally take down Cersei? How much damage is the Night King going to inflict with that ice dragon. Despite the shows popularity though it's not without its flaws. Especially in recent seasons the show has gone off the rails a little bit-- and we'd like to think that could be traced back to the pitch meeting for that stated it all!
2x41 - The Big Bang Theory Pitch Meeting
July 14, 2018
After more than a decade on TV, The Big Bang Theory is still one of the most popular comedies in the world. Week after week, people tune in to see the nerdy and QUIRKY antics of Sheldon, Leonard, Raj and Howard, coupled up with the funny reactions of Penny, Bernadette and Amy. But is the show actually smart, or is it just pretending to be? What are we actually supposed to be laughing at? What’s up with that insane laugh track?
2x42 - Iron Man Pitch Meeting
July 18, 2018
Step into the Pitch Meeting that started Iron Man (and Marvel's Cinematic Universe!)
2x43 - The Dark Knight Pitch Meeting
July 21, 2018
It’s been 10 years since The Dark Knight hit theaters and Heath Ledger blew everyone away with his portrayal of The Joker. Christian Bale’s Batman growl has now become iconic, as have many other moments from Christopher Nolan’s hit film that changed the superhero genre forever. But what about the sillier moments of The Dark Knight? How were both Bruce Wayne and Rachel Dawes totally fine after being thrown from a high-rise building? What’s up with Harvey Dent AKA Two-Face not being able to recognize The Joker just because his mouth was covered?
2x44 - Guardians of the Galaxy Pitch Meeting
July 25, 2018
James Gunn and Guardians of the Galaxy might be in the headlines these days for very different reasons, but just a few years ago they were introduced to the world and helped turn Chris Pratt into a global phenomenon. People instantly fell in love with Peter Quill AKA Star-Lord as well as Gamora, Drax, Rocket and of course Groot. Although we all know and love these Marvel characters now, can you imagine how weird it must have been to actually pitch the first movie? A talking tree that just says his own name? A foul-mouthed gun-toting racoon?
2x45 - Man Of Steel Pitch Meeting
July 28, 2018
After Man Of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice led the DCEU down a super serious and gritty path, Warner Bros has been looking to mix things up a bit with a lighter Justice League, a charming Wonder Woman and the upcoming Aquaman and Shazam movies. But why did the DC Extended Universe head down such a dark path in the first place. Were they really trying to capture the essence of The Dark Knight but with a much more colorful character? What’s up with all the strange decisions that the Kryptonians, Pa Kent and Superman himself make?
2x46 - Iron Man 2 Pitch Meeting
August 1, 2018
Step into the Pitch Meeting that started Marvel's Iron Man 2!
2x47 - Mission: Impossible Franchise Pitch Meeting
August 4, 2018
Tom Cruise has been playing the role of super-spy Ethan Hunt in the Mission: Impossible since all the way back in 1996. With over two decades of crazy stunts and epic action scenes, there have also been some weird decisions made by the filmmakers. What was up with all the slow motion and doves in mission impossible 2? Why did they bring Jeremy Renner on board? What's up with Henry Cavill reloading his arms?
2x48 - Tom Cruise Pitch Meeting
August 8, 2018
Tom Cruise is one of the most popular actors in the world. From Top Gun, to Mission Impossible to Jack Reacher and A Few Good Men and other classics, he’s definitely made his mark on Hollywood. But how would you explain him to somebody who’s never heard of him? He plays hot shots kind of a lot? For some reason he insists on doing his own stunts. He has the laugh of a crazy person and is a leading member of Scientology?
2x49 - Teen Titans Go! To The Movies Pitch Meeting
August 11, 2018
With so many superhero movies out there now, it’s only fair that Teen Titans Go! Gets their own shot on the big screen (although some would argue that Teen Titans deserved it more.) The movie features a star-studded voice cast including Nicolas Cage, Will Arnett, Kristen Bell and more. But what’s up with the movie itself? Why is the plot so thin? How does it BARELY qualify as a feature film? Why are there SO MANY poop jokes?
2x50 - The Incredible Hulk Pitch Meeting
August 15, 2018
Step into the Pitch Meeting that started the MCU's Incredible Hulk movie!
2x51 - Hotel Transylvania Pitch Meeting
August 18, 2018
Hotel Transylvania 3 hit theaters recently… That means that Dracula, Mavis, Jonathan and the gang are at it again for some new monstrous adventures. But how did this Adam Sandler franchise come to be? How come the entire premise falls apart once you start asking a couple of basic questions, like why do the monsters have money, what’s up with Frankenstein’s fear of fear, or everyone’s fear of humans for that matter?
2x52 - Rick and Morty Pitch Meeting
August 22, 2018
Rick and Morty from Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland is one of the most popular shows on TV right now. Some members of the Rick and Morty fanbase are pretty much crazy, so we thought we’d step inside the pitch meeting that led to the hit Adult Swim animated show. What’s up with Rick Sanchez and his constant use of portal guns? Why is everything solved with portal guns or random inter-dimensional devices. Why is the show so very meta? Why did the Honest Trailers guys say “Super Easy Barely An Inconvenience” in their Deadpool 2 video?
2x53 - Thor Pitch Meeting
August 25, 2018
Before the MCU was the absolute beast that it is today, Marvel was popping out little origin movies for characters as a lead up to the first Avengers movie. With the first Thor movie, they took us on a very tilted adventure to Asgard and introduced the God of Thunder, played by Chris Hemsworth. Although it was a fun time, there were a lot of weird decisions that must have gone into making the movie. What was Loki’s plan exactly? Why did Odin make such weird decisions? What’s up with Jane and Thor immediately falling in love for no apparent reason?
2x54 - Wreck-It Ralph Pitch Meeting
August 29, 2018
Kind of like a Toy Story for a new generation (as long as you don’t think about it too much) Wreck-It Ralph was a smash hit when it came out in 2012. With the sequel ‘Ralph Breaks The Internet’ hitting theaters soon, we thought we’d take a look back at the weird decisions that probably led to the first film! Like why is the logic tying the video games together so flimsy? Why is King Candy basically a clone of Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. How come the movie does a 180 half-through through and starts making candy-based jokes instead of the video game jokes we were promised?
2x55 - Captain America: The First Avenger Pitch Meeting
September 1, 2018
Step into the pitch meeting that started Captain America: The First Avenger!
2x56 - Avatar Pitch Meeting
September 5, 2018
James Cameron’s Avatar took the world by storm in 2009, securing its spot as one of the highest grossing movies of all time. Isn’t it kind of weird then that it barely seems to have had any impact on pop culture? To find out why that is, let’s step inside the pitch meeting that led to the world of Pandora, the Na’vi, and a whooooole lot of thinly veiled racial stereotypes. What led to the decision to have giant blue kitty kats? Why don’t the multi-million dollar Avatars have ANY tracking capabilities? What’s up with the super generic villain?
2x57 - Iron Man 3 Pitch Meeting
September 8, 2018
Coming hot off the worldwide phenomenon that was the first Avengers movie, fans were super pumped to see Tony Stark in action once more in Iron Man 3. What they got was a movie where Tony deals with panic attacks and barely suits up and an iconic comic book villain turned into a plot twist. But at least expectations were subverted, right? Step into the pitch meeting that led to the third installment in the Iron Man franchise and led Marvel to be like “yeah maybe let’s just put Tony in other people’s movies from now on.” Also, where were the Avengers during this movie?
