The Dumb Cool Weird Podcast

Wes and Nick finish up the final Hercules Tv Film. Is "Hercules in the Maze of the Minotaur" the most lazy Hercules film ever made? Join us as we unravel this perplexing movie that spends 70% of its time on long flashbacks before finally delivering a showdown with the Minotaur in the last 30 minutes. We break down the redundant clip-show format that dominates the narrative and examine why the film feels more like a nostalgic family gathering than an epic adventure.
From inexplicable bar fights to villagers trapped in goo and clay pods, this movie leaves us with more questions than answers. Why does Zeus have such a strange relationship with the Minotaur? What was the grand plan behind the Minotaur's actions? And what in the world happened to Eolus's wife? Tune in as we try to piece together the chaotic puzzle that is "Hercules in the Maze of the Minotaur" and share our thoughts on its numerous shortcomings.
