Messed Up Movie Draft: All the Right Movies with John Barker

Pre-order All The Right Movies: The Stories and Secrets Behind the Making of 25 Iconic Films, out September 2026: https://geni.us/AllTheRightMovies

We drafted the most messed up movies featured in the upcoming book All The Right Movies: The Stories and Secrets Behind the Making of 25 Iconic Films — and we brought in the man behind it: John Barker of All The Right Movies Podcast.

Griffey, Heath and Sam welcome John on the pod for a battle over some of the greatest, strangest, nastiest, most unforgettable movies ever made. We're talking blockbusters, cult classics, stone-cold masterpieces. These are the most essential movies of our time, so the knives are out!

Who drafted the best team? Which iconic movie got stolen way too late? And did John Barker come into our house and absolutely embarrass us with superior movie knowledge? Probably.
