Episode 428: Best of the Worst 2000s

In these uncertain times, it's important to embrace what you truly love -- bad movies. And leave it to Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl to bring you the best. The Best of the Worst.
After doing the Best of the Worst films of the 2010s with Lil G Ryfun (Ep 377) and 1990s (Ep 389), it was time to do Best of the Worst films, as dictated by a Rotten Tomatoes score of 50% or less... and to get the perspective of the fairer kind, the Jennifers make a return... Jennifer Kaufman and Jennifer Novotny both join the show!

First up, to celebrate the release weekend anniversary of Avengers Infinity War and Endgame, an MCU themed version of IMDb, naming the movie roles of those in the MCU...

Then the trash that we love, movies that rank low on RT but high in our hearts, from Orlando Jones getting shoved up an alien's bum to Britney Spears hitting a cross road to a Star Wars mission road trip to #TwitterlessDrEarl surprising everyone with his Scooby Doo love.

Plus, what happened to Julia Robert's best role in the Julie Bracket... Doctor Aphra... love for Favreau... Va-poo-rizers... M Night's folly... Dim Sum... Richard Pryor's bad Toys... Robin Williams bad Toys... the J-Lo Triumverate..

Another week, another episode from Quarantine Central, and Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl.
First up, a random game of See This Not That with 80s movie stars... and to bring in more movies and more opinions, it's the pride of St. Simon's Island, Georgia, that being Scottie Ryfun... and what's better than one Ryfun?  Ice cream. But in lieu of having ice cream, how about another Ryfun?  Lil G Ryfun returns again (and even has his pic on the website!)

Episode 426: Clay Comforts

In these times, it's important to take time to be safe and healthy, but sometimes you need just a little more security in your earholes. Which is why The Deucecast Movie Show guys -- Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl -- are bringing the world a list of "Comfort Movies"... movies that just make you feel good, or that you've seen so many times, it's a total escape to watch.

But to truly provide the comfort you may need, the DCMS brings on the dulcet tones of Friend of the Show Clay Shaver!  Back again to show up the crew with his awesome style, the show catches up with the old friend, bragging a little on the Spawn of Clay and her record making track style, as well as getting the latest COVID news from up north.

Then, in a game played for the first time since Episode 350 (Oct 2018), a rousing round of Reel or Unreel, as Dave calls out the movie description and Mikey, Clay, & #TwitterlessDrEarl have to decipher what is... well, real... or unreal...

And finally, the topic at hand, Comforting Films. Those movies that just make you feel good, that you can enjoy at any point in these troubled times. From a Jesus musical to a Nic Cage drama to retrieving a baseball to the movie that stole the Oscar from "Enchanted".
