Episode 239 - Reign of Fire
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
January has become an impromptu Matthew McConaughey month or “McConaughthon.” Last week, the guys tackled Tiptoes. This week, they had to do a hard turn into science-fiction with 2002’s post-apocalyptic film - Reign of Fire. Both a financial and critical disappointment, Reign of Fire finds a stellar early 2000’s cast fighting fire-breathing dragons. The film has become somewhat of a cult classic, but do Troy and Brad agree? Download to find out!
Reign of Fire is directed by Rob Bowman and stars Matthew McConaughey, Christian Bale, Izabella Scorupco, and Gerald Butler.

Episode 238 - Tiptoes
Welcome back to Not A Bomb podcast, the show where we tackle cinema’s biggest box office failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Happy New Year, and thank you for supporting the podcast in 2025. After this week’s choice, you might never want to listen to the podcast again. Troy and Brad had the best intentions. There was once a movie in which Gary Oldman, in the role of a lifetime, played a little person who happened to be the twin brother of Matthew McConaughey. Sounds fun, right? Well, not really.
In this week’s episode, the gang discusses the unbelievable film - Tiptoes. Trust us, this is a real film, but there isn’t much else to say about it. If you tuned in to watch this one for the podcast, we apologize. Please, do not send us your therapy bill.
Tiptoes is directed by Matthew Bright and stars Gary Oldman, Kate Beckinsale, Matthew McConaughey, and Peter Dinklage.

Episode 222 - Killer Joe
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Listener Request Month rolls on as Troy and Brad welcome back Sammy of the GGTMC to take on one of the most intense films the podcast has ever covered. This week, we're headed to the trailer park with a big bucket of the Colonel’s famous chicken in hand to dive into the 2011/2012 Southern Neo-Noir, Killer Joe. Brace yourself—this film is not for the faint of heart. It's brutal, violent, and pushes boundaries, fully earning its NC-17 rating. The gang covers everything from the best fried chicken to Matthew McConaughey’s chilling performance, and even debates if this might be the movie that broke the Movie Guide scale. Killer Joe is unforgettable, but definitely not for everyone—proceed with caution.
Killer Joe is directed by William Friedkin and stars Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Gina Gershon, and Thomas Haden Chruch.
