Dirty Sons of Pitches

TV & Film


The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are watching movies about little kids with issues, the first more homicidal and the next more earnestly deranged. They discuss 1992's "Mikey," a forgotten but enjoyably silly killer kid movie, and 2006's "Everyone's Hero," a passion project for the last Christopher Reeves. Available on Spotify and Apple Episode 330 includes: -Actor Chris Noth gets Me Too-ed and Jeff Garlin and Jay Johnston get booted from their TV shows. -Trailer reactions: "Sonic 2," "Fantastic Beasts 3," and a new film by the Daniels ("Swiss Army Man"). -Nate shrugs at "C'mon, C'mon" and "the Tragedy of Macbeth" and "The Lost Daughter." -"Spider-Man: No Way Home" is all the Spider-Man. -Switch the Pitch -- "Mikey" / "Everyone's Hero" -The guys discuss the bizarre animated movie co-directed by Christopher Reeve as a passion project, a 2006 movie about Babe Ruth, a talking baseball and a talking baseball bat, and then the far more entertaining 1992 movie "Mikey" about a killer kid who also happens to be a sex pervert and little twerp. They'll combine elements from both into an original pitch.
