Every Wrestlemania Ranked from Best to Worst
We typically like to stay out of sports but professional wrestling walks that fine line of athleticism and entertainment more readily than any other industry. Plus it's hard not to pay homage to our video store heritage without acknowledging the pivotal role that renting Wrestlemania VHS tapes every weekend played into the bygone movie rental era. Enough rationalizing, here's our extensive breakdown of the Best and Worst Wrestlemanias of All Time. #42. Wrestlemania IX Highlig

Every I Think You Should Leave Sketch Ranked from Best to Worst (updated with Season 3)
#79. Choking Season 1, Episode 5 There are a lot of I Think You Should Leave bits that can be boiled down to just Tim being a liar and then going to the most ridiculous lengths imaginable to uphold said lie, through seemingly insurmountable levels of escalating tension. But as Tim's character tries to conceal the fact that he's choking to avoid looking foolish in front of his favorite actor-musician-designer, Caleb Went, the tension kind of crumbles under Tim's bad acting in

Every Stunt from the Jackass Movie Series Ranked from Best to Worst
After a decade of silence, the inevitable return of the Jackass saga is finally upon us. And as you would celebrate any comedic achievement in excellence, we've taken it upon ourselves to revisit the entire film series (FOH Bad Grandpa...) and rank every stunt in the Jackass Cinematic Universe from Best to Worst. Now updated with stunts from Jackass Forever, here's where every bit in the 20 year legacy ranks: #155. The Fortune Teller (Jackass: The Movie) By the time Jackass m

Year in Tiers 2023 - Corn Flakes
As an adult, the instances where I find myself eating cereal are so few and far between that I can really only go for my absolute favorites when the opportunity presents itself. Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Apple Jacks. Golden Grahams. Fruity Pebbles. Frosted Flakes. I'd NEVER take regular ass Corn Flakes as my #1 pick in the Breakfast Cereal Draft. They're perfectly fine. You won't starve. But nobody's picking Corn Flakes over anything else. These are the perfectly fine, but not a

Year in Tiers 2023 - The 1990's Atlanta Braves
There was a TON of awesome music released this year. So much so that our "good, but not great" tier was almost our largest collection of records. But that middle tier always swallows up the majority. Just barely this year though. And to signify sustained excellence without quite reaching dynastic status, we've chosen the 1990's Atlanta Braves to represent the incredible records that came up just a little short of championship pedigree. But make no mistake, like those perpetu

Year in Tiers 2022 - Jim Gaffigan
Our most densely populated tier in 2022 is a collection of perfectly average, moderately enjoyable, entirely serviceable content. Like take for instance, Jim Gaffigan. He's fine. He's nobody's favorite comedian but when it comes to stand-up, you can certainly do a lot worse. So enjoy this plentiful bounty of Jim Gaffigan level entertainment. #67. Devotion It's really hard being the OTHER film about fighter pilots in the year of Top Gun: Maverick. And weirdly enough, "Hangman"

Year in Tiers 2022 - Kane
Even though he had a pretty solid professional wrestling career, a couple of title runs and was technically inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame ( who isn't though? ); Kane was never really a headlining act. He had a pretty awesome look and had plenty of kick ass moments but thanks to the fact that he was introduced as The Undertaker's little brother - he never really escaped the shadow that cast upon him. And so these are the equally impressive - but not quite "BEST EVER" qual

Year in Tiers 2021 - Hershey Bar
The Middle Tier finds the inoffensive, middle of the road films that can best be described as average or slightly above. Fine. Like a Hershey Bar. There have been so many improvements on the candy bar at this point that a simple chocolate bar pales in comparison. It's still chocolate, it's just not anything to get all that excited about. It'll float around in the candy jar until all the better options are taken. #59. The Tragedy of Macbeth Maybe it's just the apple+ logo that

Year in Tiers 2021 - Ramen Noodles
We've classified the middle tier of this year's recap as the Ramen Noodles. Not bad, filling, and easy to consume - these are the albums that wont inspire much fanaticism, but they'll keep you from starving if you can't afford something with a little more flavor. #76. Crawler by Idles Idles returns with a quick recovery effort in the intentionally understated "Crawler", which contains much less pomp and circumstance than last year's " Ultra Mono " but is also undeniably drab

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Middle
The middle tier of our yearly recap finds the middle of the road, serviceable yet flavorless efforts that are good enough but not all that remarkable. Like a tall glass of tap water. It'll clench your thirst but it's hardly anyone's first drink of choice. #46. Color Out of Space Yet another glowing love letter to the b-horror 1980's, Color Out of Space does very little to differentiate itself from the ever growing sub-genre of nostalgia horror. But aside from the synth heavy

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Best
The final tier of our 2020 recap is the tip of the mountain top, best of the best, undisputed heavyweight champions of the world. The standard all future generations will be measured against, I give you - The Seinfelds. #10. Inlet by Hum The most improbable comeback story of the year, Hum returns after a 22 year gap between albums and it's as seamless as you could possibly imagine. Fuzzy sick riffs on top of fuzzy sick riffs, "Inlet" is music to get high and head bang yoursel

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Good
The 4th tier finds our good, not great entries - The Runners Up. Nothing to be ashamed of, these records are just missing that extra punch to put them over the top. Like Arby's. Love Arby's. But it's not like anyone on death row is asking for their last meal to consist of a Beef N Cheddar. Curly fries maybe... #40. Columbus by Terminal Crush Grey Gordon (of Kill Surf City, Wickerwolves, Parasitic Twins, Karloff, and well...Grey Gordon) debuts his latest musical endeavor with

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Middle
In the third tier we find the average, or slightly above records that couldn't quite separate themselves from the middle of the pack. Much like 90's WWF Superstar The British Bulldog, these albums never really achieve greatness but are serviceable middle card entertainment nonetheless. #72. Welcome to Bobby's Motel by Pottery There's an undeniable dance-ability to the kinetic acid funk rhythms on display here, just a disappointing lack of substance underneath it all. Especial

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Bad
The next tier in our 2020 recap is composed of bad, yet not terrible efforts. If you're desperate enough for some entertainment you'll likely find redeemable qualities scattered throughout but deep down in your gut you know what you're consuming isn't fully on the level. Much like the early quarantine bingeworthy docu-series, these are The Tiger Kings. #100. May You Be Held by SUMAC The further SUMAC strays away from it's raw industrial debut and continues to sink into improv

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Worst
With the unrelenting shitshow that 2020 bestowed upon us, it's hard to really pinpoint the lowest of lows. But for me, I think I'll always remember the night when our country took a break from mismanaging a global pandemic and began burning from coast to coast in a cultural civil war while the commander and chief instigator turned off the lights and hid under his bed like a little kid waiting for mom and dad to come home and save him from the closet monster. Now I always like

The Best (and Worst) Films of 2019: The Middle
This third tier is the "Just Fine" group of average or slightly above flicks that are passable but it wouldn't be the end of the world if you never got around to seeing them. Basic but filling. Like a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich. #57. Just Mercy As heartbreaking as the true story is, this courtroom drama drags on well past it's welcome. Michael B. Jordan and Brie Larson feel utterly wasted and the predictable plot lacks any energy or passion whatsoever. It's such a painf

The Best (and Worst) Albums of 2019: The Middle
This third tier introduces us to a solid crop of releases that are average or slightly above. These are mostly good records that just aren't necessarily standouts. Like a restaurant soft serve vanilla ice cream cone. I mean who doesn't love ice cream? It's just not really anybody's first choice... #64. No Holiday by The Muffs The Muffs have always held a special place in my heart. I don't know what it is about their simplistic formula that always puts a smile on my face but K
