Ep. 323 - Small Soldiers
On today’s new episode and the last of 2025, the guys discuss the 1998 classic Small Soldiers directed by Joe Dante and starring Tommy Lee Jones and Kirsten Dunst
But first, are Clive Owen and Gerard Butler basically the same guy? Do we love the cast of this movie? Is this our first edition of The Boys Talk Toys? Did we all see this in theaters? Does this movie have Gremlins vibes and easter eggs? How was the CGI for a 1998 film? If Toy Story had Apocalypse Now vibes would it be Small Soldiers? For a kids movie does this have intelligent critiques of the military industrial complex? Were they trying to make Jay Mohr a thing in the 90s? Was this move Phil Hartman’s last role? Did Andy Dick OD recently? Is Cody the Alan Abernathy of the pod? Does this movie get a 6 on the Foley? Would Avatar exist without Small Soldiers? Is this movie insanely quotable? Is Stephen Lang the real life Chip Hazard? Was Led Zeppelin cool in the 90s? Does this movie have a crazy soundtrack? Is this movie too violent for kids? Did the boys have encyclopedias growing up? Is this a “holiday” movie? Can these toys feel pain or reproduce? Will there ever be a Small Soldiers 2? Was this movie a box office flop? Do we each have a favorite Adam Sandler-produced movie that the others hate? Why do we need to ban Elon Musk from watching Small Soldiers? Were there any Small Soldiers video games? Are we The Heavy Duty Boys? Who is Reba playing in the MCU?
