The boys also delve into what the film could have been, exploring its few redeeming qualities and pondering how it fits... or fails to fit into the Texas Chainsaw Massacre legacy.</p> <p>Join Golden, Mr. Sir, and Antheny as they saw through The Next Generation, serving up a hefty dose of criticism, a sprinkling of admiration for McConaughey&#39;s commitment to the role, and plenty of laughs at the film&#39;s expense.
