In our first episode, Ade and Aaron take on War of the Worlds (2025) — the Ice Cube–starring, Amazon-Prime–streaming, alien-data-sucking spectacle no one asked for but everyone is hate-watching.

Ice Cube stars as an NSA analyst who spends more time spying on his kids’ fridges than saving the world, while Eva Longoria watches the weather. The aliens? They don’t want our planet, they want… our data. Cue Facebook memories disappearing, planes falling from the sky for no reason, and tanks that instantly rust when Wi-Fi goes down.

Add in the most shameless Amazon product placement ever, stock footage galore, and the worst green screen we’ve ever seen, and you’ve got a masterpiece of unintentional comedy.

Was it so bad it’s good? Nope. It was just boring. But like The Room or Plan 9 from Outer Space, this movie might earn its place in the “so bad you need to witness it once” hall of fame.
