On each episode of the Action Movie Hall of Fame, co-hosts Matt Brand and Dereck Bordeleau do a deep-dive review of an action movie, and decide at the end if it deserves to be in the Action Movie Hall of Fame.
This week, Matt and Dereck review Spider-Man 2 on it's 20th anniversary. When this movie came out, it was hailed as the greatest Comic Book movie of all time. But a lot of comic book movies have come out in the past 20 years. Matt and Dereck will see how it holds up, and if it deserves to hang around in the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or will this movie leave the guys up in arms?

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace
in 1999, 16 years after The Return of the Jedi, George Lucas finally released the follow-up to his cinema-changing space fantasy, with the first of 3 Prequels, The Phantom Menace. With people waiting so long for the return of the Star Wars Universe (the SWU), the Phantom Menace made almost $1 Billion at the Box Office. But much has been made about, well, how bad it is. So, given all that history, Matt and Dereck return to the movie they saw at a Midnight screening 25 years ago, for a deep dive review. They'll have to decide if The Phantom Menace should have a seat in the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or if its poor performance is enough to call the movie to vote-of-no-confidence?

The Mummy 1999
This week, 25 years after its release, Matt and Dereck review 1999's The Mummy. A young Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weiss are an easy duo to cheer for: but what about the rest of the movie? Does The Mummy have some sort of secret power that will allow it to gain entry into the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or should this movie stay wrapped up and buried, before it hurts the general public?
