Blaine Andrews
Co-Host of Criticless Cast Unhinged
Blaine Andrews is the “mastermind” behind Critically Aroused. Unlike Henry Cavill, his mustache doesn’t need to be photoshopped out. Need an opinion on a conspiracy theory? Don’t worry, he heard about it three years ago and can tell you all about it. Little known fact: his head will spontaneously combust if you talk during a movie. His fave movies are Inception, Brick, Scott Pilgrim, The Salton Sea, and Lucky Number Sleven. Wow, what a line up.
Blaine Andrews has hosted 124 Episodes.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (& a man hugging a rat in the dark)
November 21st, 2022 | Season 3 | 1 hr 42 mins
action, adventure, angela bassett, black panther, danai gurira, dominique thorne, drama, letitia wright, lupita nyong'o, martin freeman, marvel, mcu, ryan coogler, tenoch huerta, winston duke
If you have been a long-time listener, then you will know Blaine's extreme dislike for the first Black Panther movie so at the very least this will be a pretty interesting one! It's now been 4 years sense the first film, the public is losing faith in the MCU, and on top of it all we have a new-ish actor in the role of Black Panther. Can director Ryan Coogler bring the MCU back to life or is he going to drive the wedge deeper with the die hard fans in favor of critics and the Twitter Twats?

Black Adam (& anyone else please!)
November 8th, 2022 | Season 3 | 1 hr 27 mins
action, adventure, aldis hodge, dc, dwayne johnson, fantasy, jaume collet-serra, noah centineo, pierce brosnan, quintessa swindell, sarah shahi
So DC has a new movie out about one of their long running villains... but it's staring The Rock who is notorious for refusing to be the bad guy. So, there are two big questions to ask. First, can Dwayne break bad?... and second, but most important, it's a DC movie... so does it suck?

Barbarian (& knee knockers)
September 20th, 2022 | Season 3 | 1 hr 36 mins
bill skarsgård, georgina campbell, horror, jaymes butler, justin long, matthew patrick davis, richard brake, thriller, zach cregger
So a new horror film called Barbarian in theaters now... We don't have any idea why that's the name but what we do know is that you should not research this movie at all and definitely don't watch the trailer!

Bullet Train (& America's @$$hole)
August 22nd, 2022 | Season 3 | 1 hr 59 mins
aaron taylor-johnson, action, andrew koji, bad bunny, brad pitt, brian tyree henry, comedy, david leitch, hiroyuki sanada, joey king, karen fukuhara, logan lerman, masi oka, michael shannon, sandra bullock, thriller, zak olkewicz, zazie beetz
The name of the game for Critically Aroused lately is to record an episode and then wait an insanely long time to go live with it, so at long last here is your Bullet Train review! Also...The critics strike again! Don't consult Rotten Tomatoes before seeing this one!

Nope (& don't talk about chimps!)
August 3rd, 2022 | Season 3 | 1 hr 58 mins
brandon perea, daniel kaluuya, horror, jordan peele, keke palmer, michael wincott, mystery, sci-fi, steven yeun
Jordan Peel is critically loved as a director but common to what they would like for you to think he's an extremely divisive director at the very least. Being that Get Out is one of Blaine's most hated movies of all time, paired with his extreme dislike for Jordan and his political effect on the industry, you should definitely give this week's review a listen!

Spiderhead (& Sandy Little Snow Bastard)

The Jurassic Park films have been capturing the minds of adults and children alike for almost 30 years between the two franchises and its supposedly time to put a wrap on things and close out the story... well, until they reboot it or give us another sequel series! (which we talk about at length). Join us once again for a deep dive chat about all things Jurassic, and the legendary Donk-a-Sarus-Rex!
