Thorstein Veblen: Norwegian-American sociologist/economist who lived on a farmstead in Minnesota. It's now a national historical landmark. Ever hear the term "copious consumption?" Veblen coined that one!  SKYRIM BELONGS TO THE NORDS!  .  .  .  Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Spin-off Doctors

Join your old friends Jim Sterling and Conrad Zimmerman as they get elbow-deep in licensed videogame material. Movies, TV shows, comics (but mostly movies), the doctors are here to examine. 

This week, we start with 2002's Resident Evil, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and starring Milla Jovovich. 

She kicked a zombie unconscious. 

The Spin-off Doctors: Resident Evil

"You created it all so you could live forever. Why?"

Your doctors are in the house to dissect House of the Dead, Uwe Boll's classic cinematic dog turd. 

Spaniards from Spain, gun continuity, Sega's island raves, and tits within minutes are all on the menu. Alongside some of the crappest zombies ever. 

The Spin-off Doctors: House of the Dead

Your doctors cut open the carcass of DOOM, discussing the total lack of demons, The Rock's sudden heel turn, and anachronistic videogame products. 

Oh, and don't worry... we spend quite some time talking about THAT little first-person segment. You know the one. 

The Spin-off Doctors: DOOM

Raul Julia's amazing performance, Vega's fabulous features, the war crimes of Van Damme, and also Kylie Minogue for some reason. 

These things and more combine, with some help from DNA MUTAGEN, to make an incredible comedy movie that's just like Rush Hour. 

Street Fighter: The Movie is a prequel narrative based entirely around clothes. It's brilliant. 

The Spin-off Doctors: Street Fighter - The Movie

In what may be their finest outing yet, your Spin-off Doctors skewer Mr. Olyphant's performance as Agent 47 in the ridiculous 2007 Hitman movie. 

Why doesn't the world's best killer have an alias? How has an Interpol agent pieced together the work of a ghost? Exactly what happened to any of the forgotten characters? 

Hitman 2007 isn't just a bad movie, it's infuriating. 

The Spin-off Doctors: Hitman (2007)

What does Pokemon: The First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back have to say about Adolf Hitler? This is a question your resident Movie Boys have the answer to! 

Pokemon tears can heal the dead, Minnesota is the link between realities, and Team Rocket just can't deliver the goods. 

This movie is out of its damn mind. 

The Spin-off Doctors: Pokemon: The First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back

A movie in which Billy Zane outclasses Ben Kingsley and Meatloaf steals the show. Uwe Boll's tits n' guts travesty is... quite surreal. 

Let us enjoy this totally unhinged mess of vampiric nonsense, shall we? It's time for BloodRayne to ruin our day. 

The Spin-off Doctors: BloodRayne

Alice is definitely better than Jill Valentine. Resident Evil Apocalypse NEEDS you to know that.

Let's see what else this wonderful mess has for us.

The Spin-off Doctors: Resident Evil Apocalypse

It's time to enjoy the adventures of the Definitely Persian Prince of Persia. 

Oh, and Ben Kingsley's back, putting in another full-effort performance. 

The Spin-off Doctors: Prince of Persia

Dead Rising Watchtower is a strangely faithful film that attempts quite valiantly to be canon. Sort of. 

Rob Riggle steals the show and we learn all about the Internet Movie Firearm Database. 

What a time! 

The Spin-Off Doctors: Dead Rising Watchtower

Dr. Isaacs and his mother lived alone in a small house on a hill...

Your favorite Movie Boys are back to look at the third film in the Resident Evil movie franchise... and it's not great. 

Idiot crows, a girl called K-Mart, and the Worst Wesker are all to be found in this wannabe Mad Max.

The Spin-off Doctors: Resident Evil Extinction

Look, you can't not talk about The Angry Birds Movie and avoid a political discussion. 

I mean... you can... but we couldn't. And it's not so much discussion as it is gleefully reveling in our SJWishness and if you don't like it, you'll have to listen to another show. I mean it's gleeful. 

Also, this movie is crap.
