For our final Bombs Away, we're checking out Ryan Renold's movie Green Lantern. Don't worry we love comic books and will respect the source material as best as we can. This movie came out right before DC decided they wanted an extended universe of their own so it sits in kind of a weird timeline among WB's slate of superhero films. Ryan Renolds is Hal Jordan, a talented but reckless test pilot who is chosen by a dying alien named Abin Sur to inherit his ring and become a Green Lantern. None of the other Green Lanterns like him. The cast also includes Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Mark Strong, Angela Bassett, and Tim Robbins.

For our third Bombs Away, we're diving into the somewhat successful The Mummy (2017). This movie performed so poorly for Universal that they ended the Dark Universe franchise. It was the beginning of the universe and the end. The Dark Universe franchise was the MCU but for monsters. But if this movie indicates what a franchise full of classic Universal monsters could have been, it would have been blander than a bowl of oatmeal.

The story follows Nick Morton (Tom Cruise), a U.S. Army sergeant and mercenary, who accidentally discovers the tomb of an ancient Egyptian princess, Ahmanet (Sofia Boutella), during a mission in Iraq. Ahmanet, who made a pact with the dark god Set and was mummified alive for her crimes, is awakened and brings with her a malevolent curse. Oh, also, Russell Crowe is there.

This movie is somehow based on the 1999 movie The Mummy. You should watch that instead.

For our second Bombs Away, we're diving into The Adventures of Pluto Nash! It's an attempt to make Eddie Murphy a dang action hero! It wasn't successful. This 2002 American science fiction action comedy film is set in 2087 and follows former smuggler Pluto Nash, who now runs a nightclub on the Moon after buying it from Paulie from the Rocky movies. Despite a star-studded cast including Randy Quaid, Rosario Dawson, and Joe Pantoliano, this movie is considered one of the biggest box office bombs in cinematic history. Is it worthy of all the hate?

Welcome to our new series for June, Bombs Away! We discuss movies with a massive budget that bombed BIG at the box office. We're starting off with a cult classic: Waterworld. For those who don't know anything about the award-winning stunt show at Universal Studios, Waterworld is a post-apocalyptic action film released in 1995 starring Kevin Costner. The movie is set in a future where the polar ice caps have melted, covering the Earth in water and leaving humanity to struggle for survival in makeshift floating communities. Dryland is what they're searching for and Denis Hopper's villainous character, Deacon, is obsessed with finding it. Does this movie sink or swim all these years later?
