WHAT WENT WRONG

Last Action Hero

Sony bids against itself for a script, a writer re-writes a parody of his own writing, and the 80s action movie goes out with a whimper. This week Chris &amp; Lizzie learn how Last Action Hero was doomed by an insane release date, brutal test screening, and historically bad press.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/whatwentwrongpodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Go Ad-Free - Join Our Patreon!</a><a href="https://www.whatwentwrongpod.com/merch" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Check Out Our Merch!</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/whatwentwrongpod/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow Us on Instagram!</a><a href="https://www.whatwentwrongpod.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">What Movie's Next?</a> Hosted on Acast.

What Went Wrong covers Hollywood’s most notoriously disastrous movie productions, digging into the behind-the-scenes insanity of everything from massive flops to record-breaking blockbusters. In each episode, hosts Lizzie Bassett and Chris Winterbauer dive into a new film to explore the mind-blowing (and sometimes numbing) reasons why making a movie is nearly impossible (especially a good one).
