BC MARCH MADNESS 2025 - Day 19
🕑 Added 2025-03-19 18:00:11 +0000 UTCI scream, you scream, we all scream for SCREAM. Final Destination has finally met its demise.
Up today - Alice & Dorothy.
It's Resident Evil vs World of Oz.
With Resident Evil, we'd cover the six Milla Jovovich / Paul WS Anderson films:
Resident Evil (2002)
Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)
Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2017)
With WORLD OF OZ, we'd cover five films:
The Wizard of Oz (1939)
The Wiz (1978)
Return to Oz (1985)
Wicked (2024)
Wicked: For Good (2025)
We would NOT cover Oz the Great and Powerful because we already did and it was boring.
There's no place like Raccoon City? Or there's no place like home?

... *shifty eyes* ... what? je ne comprends pas.
Brandon Long
Maybe the real Resident Evil were the Oz voters we met along the way
Div Whateley
Wow, sometimes you manage to find the most perfect photo for these posts that you possibly could. Absolutely nailed it. Well done.
Olivia Haidar
What an utter travesty
Darby Dixon III
i might say they are actually ... good
Andrew Wertz
Oz needs to win so we hear David’s multiple takes on New York New York for Oz
Kuba Havelka
inject the return to oz commentary into my veins
Wyatt Gray
I've never gotten around to watching The Wiz and I've heard good things. Voting OZ
Travis Dunsmuir
RETURN TO OZ
Despairing Radical
PWSA > PTA.

These are my top 2 in this bracket. Oz will probs lose but they should do it.
overthebw
you subscribe to the patreon but don't listen to the show?
JC9000
the eternal tabernacle won't allow it.
JC9000
too many people voting in these based on a single movie without looking at the other piles of shit we'd get as well. The Wiz? Wicked? (TWICE!?) I want Return to Oz as much as the next dude but not at that cost... sweet jeebus.
Michael Hollenbeck
But the podcasts would be incredible
FrivolousFlea
That's where the series becomes truly great
Chris Dobson
Really have to wonder about the mental health of anyone choosing to make anyone watch Resi 4-6. Those movies need to be kept under quarantine.
Anthony Strand
No one should have to suffer through that
Heather Robinson
I want to watch Return to Oz with Ben on the porch
andy
Zardoz should be part of the “World of Oz”
Jim Mccaffery
Blank Check is not a bad movie podcast and should not be a bad movie podcast but I can't help pulling for Resident Evil. I guess they're really more "incredibly weird movies" than "bad movies" tho
Good
A lose lose but l guess Oz
Jake Vogt
Oh, what a shame
Elizabeth Edwards
Hearing David talk Resident Evil is obviously tempting, but c'mon, everyone: GRIFFIN 'THE WIZ' COMMENTARY! THE CHOICE IS CLEAR!!
Zexyshamen
I get it we are voting for oz to get a whole Paul WS series
Manish Agarwal
Jack Pumpkinhead hive assemble! 🎃
Douglas Wykstra
Carsten Norgaard seems like a good friend.
Lauren Damon
Whole episode on Wheelers and Mombie, please
Lauren Damon
Wonderful
Andrew McGlennon
Resident Evil is more Oz than Oz.
Holden Martinson
Shaking my head at these anti-RE votes.
Carl Brown
I’m so used to the photoshop posters on the main feed at first glance I thought that was Marie as the witch and immediately went to look at griffins face on Dorothy only to realise it’s a perfectly normal photo
Andrew Wyslotsky
Can’t wait to ease on down the road
Ariel Jacobson
All I hear is blah blah blah RETURN TO OZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rad Rodge
Yeah this one is particularly excellent, it had to feel awesome to find out this existed hahaha
Aidan
just remember you are all voting for 5 HOURS of wicked commentary
Anthony Oleszkiewicz
As I said on the previous poll with Oz, you need to do Oz the Great and powerful again. There's still more meat on that bone
Alex Thompson
Blank Check in 2021: We’ll do the Resident Evils when we’re back in studio together. Me in 2025: I’m begging you, please just do the Resident Evils
Ian Smart
The only thing holding back the RE series is that they don’t include the 2021 WELCOME TO RACOON CITY movie which absolutely rules!!!
TK
Leon Kennedy is disappointed in all of you and so is the Redfield family. For shame blankies, for shame.
Matt Remmers
Follow the yellow brick road.

My picks are taking an absolute battering this year. It's remarkable how wrong the children are.
Harding Royster
I wonder how much of the voting for Resident Evil is driven by people (like me) who were pleasantly surprised by the first one (punching above its weight at a time when those kinds of movies were absolute bottom of the barrel) and that lingered despite the follow-ups being absurdly dumb
Harrison Cordle
Just realized Muppets Wiz is getting passed on in this collection, but there’s still some great work on here
Benjamin Haworth
Your ability to find on topic photos for Patreon match-up is so phenomenal Marie!
Josh Darby
This
Scotty B
Return to Oz creeps me out more than Rez series. My vote is for creepy 🤨
John
Yeah good horror games but those movies seem exhausting
Dan Stadnik
Great find with that photo for this matchup. Content like this is why I subscribed to this Patreon on day one and have not looked back!
John Dog
A vote for Res is a vote for Sims losing his mind less than mid-way through. It. Will. Be. Super. Fucking. Funny.
Rob Bowman
While this is another matchup I don't care about, the accompanying picture for this has fried all of my circuits.
Darby Dixon III
i'm usually pretty much like "whoever wins we all win" but i am really rooting for a resident evil revival in the voting here
Susannah B.
LET'S GO FELLOW OZIANS
Spencer Pommier
Please just let me watch something stupid after all this Star Trek nonsense
Devin DiMattia
Oz. No contest. I've seen one Resident Evil movie and that was enough.
Chris Radicone
I don't see either of these going the distance and while the original and The Whiz are great I like tossing the underdog a bone so I am pushing for bones, blood, lasers and chains (there has to be chains somewhere in this series) for our boy Ben. Resident Evil Baby!!!
Joshua Siegal
Bring Resident Evil back when Zach Cregger does his
Brett
Everyone saying resident evil clearly hasn't seen Return to Oz. It's worth it for this one movie.
justn
FIRST!
Benjamin Ogden
C'mon fam! You can't vote for PTA on main feed but leave PWSA out to dry like this. Think about the great David content we'd get out of Resident Evil!
Robert Carroll
Neither is final 4 material, but Resident Evil is pretty close to a normal BC series where a narrative can be threaded, and maturation(or lack thereof) could be discussed. Although, considering the series; this is also a good reason to vote OZ. A plague on both your houses!
Olivia Haidar
The choice is clear: one series that has one good movie and a bunch of dreck, or Resident Evil
Tom
Do not make me do drugs for the Oz time.
Miles Lemaire
Shout out to whoever found this photo.
Anthony Regina
I’m a big ol’ grub and I know what I likes. I’d rather watch Resident Evil movies. Sue me.
Isaac Adams
I would love both series but Oz gets my vote for Return to Oz alone.
Kyle Harlan
Resident Evil as an entry in a miniseries of video game adaptations would be fantastic, but I don’t know how much they can really milk out of 6 fairly same-y movies. If I remember, the movies take some pretty odd swings, but not enough for 2 months of episodes.
Conor Bresnan
I am so sick of Oz and all its cronies. Outside of the original classic it's a deeply unfun playground.
heather
Sequels that don't add numbers but just Require You To Know Them are a pox on the world.
Bryn Findlay-Dykes
get dizzy miss wizzy
Zander
What are we doing here we don’t need to watch Wicked! PWSA time
sheabobay
I wanna watch the res evs w my BROS
Brett Tucker
I demand a Dark Side of the Rainbow episode
MK
Resident evil all the way baby
nick dane
The Resident Evil movies are scary, but did they traumatize an entire generation like Return to Oz?
Malcolm
Agreed, I feel like I’m going crazy hearing the universal acclaim
Rows
cowards really don't wanna hear david sims talk about video games for ten hours
Adam Flink
A pod about Return to Oz sounds amazing.
Nick Benson
RE movies are just laaaame and repetitive. The first one is the only watchable one
Dylan C
I mean yeah I agree but if you’re actually watching them, I feel like the RE movies would make for good background chatter that’ll springboard some good conversations and reactions
youngthugisthegreatestlivingrapper
Can someone PLEASE explain why Grande's performance in Wicked is so critically acclaimed? She was the best part of an otherwise meh movie, but her performance is literally just Cat from Victorious with a lil Mean Girl energy sprinkled in
Bradley Churton
I meant of The Wizard of OZ. Resident Evil obviously is built around a gold bug’s view of the world.
dorium
absolute travesty happening here. AB-SO-LUTE.
Richard S
Wizard of Oz, pretty good movie I think
Lucas Nascimento
WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE??
Alex Firer
Those movies are much more watchable!!!
Njord
I’m taking credit for today’s description, per my comment yesterday
Bradley Churton
Not a demand, more of a request for a bonus episode that explores the bimetallism economics that underpin the original story.
Haze
Take a shot at Village or one of the RE games. Bet that’d be funny.
Dylan C
HOW DOES OZ HAVE THE LEAD, ARE YOU SERIOUS PEOPLE?!
Jordan Coleman
Come on Resident Evil. Like these are going to insane conversations. You're going to get a lot of Ben reactions
lil rob
First
Caroline Kittredge Faustine
would love to see the silent oz films too!!!!
