In this episode of Movie Torture, the gang wonders again where MTD is and then takes a scenic detour from cinematic disasters to share vacation stories, accidental lawsuits, and why assigned seating in movie theaters turns mild-mannered adults into territorial gremlins. Things spiral quickly (as usual), from popcorn politics to an oddly heated debate over Jack Black—who, depending on who you ask, is either a comedic genius or Hollywood’s favorite chaotic neutral. Legal drama bubbles up over a podcast name dispute, leading to a discussion about branding, intellectual property, and whether “Movie Torture” is technically false advertising (because the laughs are too good). The conversation weaves through Minecraft’s plotless world, Hollywood’s obsession with reboots, and how casting comedians can either save a movie—or turn it into a fever dream. As always, the hosts blend their hot takes with hot messes, creating a perfect storm of humor, pop culture analysis, and just enough absurdity to make you wonder how we ended up debating Jack Black's salary in a children’s film adaptation of a game with no story. Spoiler: it’s exactly the kind of chaos you come here for.
