Episode 164 - Underwater
Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb. This is the podcast where we go back and reexamine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. On this week’s episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss 2020’s science fiction film - Underwater.

Join us as we explore the infinite scope of the ocean and wonder if Underwater is truly a bomb.

Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of Hollywood’s biggest bombs. On this week’s episode, the guys welcome back Sammy from the GGTMC to discuss 2011’s superhero film - Green Lantern.
