On The Subject: Of Big Daddy

A debt is settled in this episode. Back in 2019 a bet was swaggered and Logan won so he picked a film, this episode is that film. The OTS crew sits down to watch a childhood favorite of Logan, Big Daddy. Does it hold up? Who knows but we look at this film and how it ages as well as reflect on its storytelling merits.

We also setup a new bet for 2020, follow along and see who wins the next time.

BIG DADDY

A lazy law school grad adopts a kid to impress his girlfriend, but everything doesn't go as planned and he becomes the unlikely foster father.
