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 237 - Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1
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.
Here's a possible revision in a more engaging and travel-log-style tone:
Troy and Brad bid farewell to the cinematic "bombs" of 2024 with an ambitious journey into the American frontier. Their latest viewing: Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1, a three-hour epic Western directed by none other than Kevin Costner. Banking on his vision, Costner poured $38 million of his own money into the project, envisioning it as the first chapter in a four-part saga that weaves together the lives of diverse characters navigating the rugged American Midwest. However, whispers of production drama have cast shadows over Horizon’s future, raising the question: will it ascend as a masterpiece or be remembered alongside Costner’s infamous Waterworld and The Postman?
To assist with discussing this epic, the gang welcomes Jose from Watch Skip Plus. As usual, Jose brings his unique take on this box office bomb and also gives an update on the Watch Skip Plus podcast.
Horizon: An American Sage - Chapter 1 is directed by Kevin Costner and stars Kevin Costner, Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington, Will Patton, Jamie Campbell Bower, and Giovanni Ribisi.
