Episode 248 - The Meteor Man Vs. Blankman (Movie Matchup March)
Suit up, listeners, because this week we're flying high (or maybe just hovering awkwardly) with The Meteor Man and Blankman.
That's right. On this episode of Not A Bomb—Movie Matchup Edition, the guys tackle a pair of African-American-led superhero films. Troy and Brad are joined by their sidekick in film discussion, a man who knows all things comic books and superheroes, Mr Korean Kool himself, John.
Listen as we dive into these ‘90s superhero gems that weren’t afraid to get a little weird. What happens when a mild-mannered teacher gains superpowers from a mysterious green meteor—only to discover his abilities include talking to dogs and making plants grow? And what’s the deal with Blankman’s unorthodox crime-fighting tactics and his hilariously named sidekick, Other Guy? Plus, what exactly is going on with Blankman’s quirky robot companion, J-5?
We'll dive into the neon gang wars and the inexplicably star-studded casts (hello, James Earl Jones rocking that wig) and determine if these films are bombs. More importantly, the guys decide which film is the champion for the week. It's an episode full of laughs, nostalgia, and plenty of homemade superhero charm. Don't miss it!"
The Meteor Man is directed by Robert Townsend and stars Robert Townsend, Marla Gibb, Eddie Griffin, Robert Guillaume, James Earl Jones, Bill Cosby, Another Bad Creation, Luther Vandross, Sinbad, Naughty by Nature, Cypress Hill, Big Daddy Kane, and Faizon Jone.
Blankman is directed Mike Binder and stars Damon Wayans, David Alan Grier, Robin Givens, Jon Polito, and Jason Alexander.
