Episode 80: Movie Night -Think Like a Man, the Movie Discussion

<p>As continued proof that Steve Harvey leaves rent-free in our minds, we return once more to his work with <em>Think Like a Man</em>, possibly the only movie ever based on a romantic advice bestseller (unless <em>John Carter of Mars</em> was loosely based on <em>Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus).  </em>Unlike other media we&apos;ve reviewed, this one is at least watchable, but Joel takes the opportunity to rant to Naomi about the weirdness of this film, from the strange writing and editorial selections, to Steve Harvey&apos;s incessant inclusion, to how the major plotlines fail to even remotely support the viability of Steve Harvey&apos;s dating advice.  Look, you probably weren&apos;t expecting Terrence Malick level of storytelling here, but it&apos;s worth digging into where this movie goes wrong and where future iterations of the <em>Think Like a Man </em>series can improve.  <br/><br/>All credit to <em>The Big Short</em> for use of a clip. <br/><br/>All credit to <em>Think Like a Man </em>for use of clips from the film and trailer, as well as use of the poster. <br/><br/>All credit to James Brown for use of <em>It&apos;s A Man&apos;s Man&apos;s Man&apos;s World </em>in the outro. </p><p>&quot;<em>Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more</em>&quot; - Henry V.<br/><br/><br/></p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/datetheseguys">Support the show</a>
