Monsters Vs Men

I found this show while searching for horror podcasts. It seemed fun. First episode I listened to was Renfield. I was hooked from there. I love all the details that these guys put into this show when rating a movie. Outstanding show! Highly Recommended for any horror fan!

I'm most of the way through their Showa era Godzilla retrospective and really do enjoy their banter despite them having issues with saying something like "larvae." However, the biggest flaw, so far, is this Theometer where Eric asks his son, Theo, about what's happening within a particular segment of the Godzilla movie in question. This segment is dull and uninteresting. It adds nothing and slows the flow of the podcast. Hopefully this is dropped after a while. *EDIT* Okay, I listened up to their "Gamera Guardian of the Universe" podcast where they had the Tokyo Lives hosts and they discussed how the Godzilla/kaiju community should be, and there have been a few other podcasts, that came out WAY before this podcast, that discussed the problems of the fandom. To make it seem as if one podcast is talking about this is just not true. A few other podcasts discuss this and it is the most important subject in the fandom right now. **EDIT: January 25, 2024** Okay, I am upping their score to three stars after listening to more of their shows. They have begun to really find their rhythm and to become a more enjoyable listening experience. The immense decrease of the Gwendar and Theometer have helped (sorry, but I don't think those segments added anything). I still have issues with their never-ending obsession with thinking most movies have a tone issue; and, to be fair, this falls more on Eric than Alex. I don't believe Eric understands the difference between a tone and various sequences that bring about action, terror, etc. and I don't mean that as an insult. I truly don't believe he understands it. Regardless, I am giving them a couple more stars and hope they get better. Okay, on the same day, I listened to their AVP review and heard Eric's complaint that that particular movie had nothing to say after I heard them talk about numerous other movies prior and him not bringing this point up nearly as often. Seriously, you're looking for something in AVP? Your three star got demoted back to a one star within a few hours. Let me just say I can't find Eric's critique of movies is helpful to this podcast. May I suggest Alex throw him overboard for someone more appropriate to what he's reviewing? LOL!!! Only one can dream. Sorry, but this just doesn't cut it anymore. Eric is the anchor holding down this podcast with his ego and thinking he knows better. He doesn't. Get rid of him.

Love the interactions between the hosts. Fun laid back show. Interesting topics/movies. Enjoyable listen.

Y’all have made such an amazing and entertaining podcast together. I find myself listening at least once a day and learning a little more about my favorite films. Your guest stars, jokes, and overall friendly atmosphere lead to a truly unique podcasting experience. Thanks again y’all, you’re both awesome.
