Without John Goodman, they never could have made a Flintstones movie, so does that mean we blame him for this or praise him for this? There's plenty of people on both sides of the fence on whether or not this a Yabba-Dabba-Doo time or just a Doo-Doo time. Even our own hosts can't agree if this is an all time classic or an epic misfire. Time to head…

Time to ride some warp whistles right back to the late 80s to California for Video Game Armageddon!
