This week on Formulaic Bish-Bosh, the MCU and the GBU (Great Bad Universe) crossover episode is finally here. Greg and Joe have the conversation that needed to happen about our greatest actors, producers, and second unit directors, who team up to make a popcorn movie that’s better than anyone anticipated. It’s real to both of them, and they’re not afraid to say it at the dinner table with their fake Russian parents.

Take a drink every time Greg makes a sound effect and every time Joe complains about CGI action.

Three words: Great Great Movie.

Our second Tony Scott/Denzel Washington movie in a series of five. We swap out Man on Fire's cartel and BHBs with Chris Pine and a runaway train. And you know what? It's amazing. Because it turns out a train with no brakes is a TRAIN WITH NO BRAKES. It's a movie so timeless that we're embarrassed for all the other movies, forever.

Is this movie just a metaphor about our stunning mortality in the face of impending death? Probably not. Is this a movie with a ton of literal helicopters all over the place? YES. It's time for us all to be the Ned in somebody's life, and hop in our truck, needlessly peel out, and tell someone you love about 2010's Unstoppable.

In a very special Marky Mark episode, Joe and Greg discuss how Wahlberg starts the movie with short hair, but then has a ponytail, and then short hair again... So to answer your question: Yes, there’s a LOT to unpack here. Joe dares to ask if we should take Marky Mark seriously, and Greg just kind of Gregs a lot.

See if you can follow any coherent plot (if you find one please let us know.) Play along with our drinking games and listen for new tropes. This movie has it all.
