Pod #69 – The Worst Films of 2017
Between us we’ve seen about 150 new releases this year, but we’re not claiming to have seen everything that hit screens. So it goes without saying that many of those titles with the atrocious Rotten Tomatoes ratings are not up for discussion here.
What’s also worth noting is the presence of films that were much-anticipated and then were bitterly disappointing. Is there anything worse than going into a new release with high hopes, and then having them dashed?
Anyway listen to the full podcast below for the full breakdown of what let us down in 2017.
