What if you combined a successful Christian book series about the rapture with the 1980 comedy classic Airplane? The answer, it seems, is the 2014 Left Behind reboot starring Nicolas Cage. It abandons most of the original story and replaces it with a suspense film about landing an airplane in a world with no Christians, which turns out to be a nearly impossible task. There's also a charming B plot about a college student who keeps getting attacked by unmanned vehicles. Dan and Ryan are joined by TikTok's angriest retail guy, Scott Seiss, and together they try to answer the biggest questions raised by this movie, namely: Why is there a guy on a tram at the airport delivering U2 tickets to the wrong person? Why did it take him two weeks to get these tickets? Why didn't Nicolas Cage wait for him? WHAT WAS THE PLAN HERE?
Be sure to see Scott in Cocaine Bear coming to theaters on February 24th!
