  • #6: 1941 (39%)
    Feb 14 2025

    Jason and The Vern return to discuss a Steven Spielberg film that's considered rotten and ponder how such a thing could happen! Maybe because it's a comedy, maybe because there's too many people, or maybe because there's SO MUCH HAPPENING it's hard to keep track. There's a lot of possibilities on why "1941" is at 39% on Rotten Tomatoes!
