Ike Barinholtz (The Oath) and Erin Gibson (Throwing Shade) join Paul and Jason to discuss the 2004 thriller Cellular starring Kim Basinger, Chris Evans, and Jason Statham. They talk about William H. Macy’s amazing performance, Kim Basinger’s character naming her son Ricky Martin, and the makers of the movie not knowing how cellphones work. Plus, everyone has some fun with their new favorite character “Jason Statham Angeleno.”

It convinced me to watch it. Actually liked it better than expected. They summed it up nicely as a puzzle put together from six other movies.

1. Something that was aiming absurdly high and failed so miserably (Gods of Egypt, The Jazz Singer remake, Battlefield Earth)

2. Something that was aiming low and still failed miserably (Howling 2, Sleepaway Camp, Star Wars Christmas Special)

3. Trying to rip off something else and failing so miserably (Mac & Me, Beautiful Creatures, Congo)

4. Weak celebrity vehicles, especially those with someone already famous for something else "looking to get into acting" (Crossroads, Spiceworld, Kazaam)

5. Attempts to take an existing franchise (not always already a film one) "In a different direction" (Superman IV, Halloween III, Super Mario Brothers)

6. Notorious bombs/duds (Gigli, Stop or my Mom will Shoot, Batman & Robin)

7. Notoriously so-bad-they're-good movies (Birdemic, Zardoz, Gymkata, The Room)

8. Straight-up next-level bonkers stuff, regardless of its infamy (Face/Off, The Room, Hard Ticket to Hawaii, Surf Ninjas)

9. Absolutely anything related to the Fast and the Furious movies.
