Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast and Keeping it Reel's David Fowlie take on the stepson of the mother of all shark movies, The Meg! Jon Turtletaub's late-summer action thriller is a throwback to over-the-top 90s blockbusters, and only one of the guys is okay with that. How does Jason Statham measure up as a different kind of leading man? What does the movie's success mean for Hollywood studios' international partnerships? And how can a film be at once too ridiculous and not ridiculous enough?
Also, the guys talk about those universally beloved new Oscar rules, and Ian belatedly celebrates nine years of Kicking the Seat!
Episode 339 is caught in a plastic garbage island!
