In this bonus, holiday episode, the Rommies discuss Spielberg’s all-time classic that Collin (after years of begging) finally got Matt and Tierney to watch! Listen in as they (and a special guest!) discuss all the things that not only made this movie a smashing success in 1975 but also continue to make it one of the best blockbusters ever all these years later.

The Rommies continue their Kubrick deep dive with a look at one of the greatest satires of all time. This week, they’re joined by Becca Sita, Tierney’s long time friend and fellow Peter Sellers stan. Listen in as they discuss the experience of watching this movie in the current climate, highlight some timeless comedic bits, and attempt to make peace with/develop affection for the exploding device.

The Rommies kick off their Kubrick Deep Dive with his seminal sci-fi classic. They begin by sharing their personal Kubrick connections before moving into discussing all of the things that still make this movie great even after all these years. Finally, they spend some time debating what the fuck the end of this movie means before adding a few new categories to the regular rotation.

It’s been several months since the Rommies have last recorded. They have been scattered across the multiverse. Against all odds, they are desperately trying to reunite to give Listener new episodes. Can they bridge the gaps of space and time to find each other once more? If so, what will that future hold? Tune in to find out! (Exclusively in Pobcass feeds, Summer 2022.)

Now that they’ve gotten all of The Batman talk out of the way, Matt, Collin, and Jim can move on to other pressing matters: discussing all of the other Batmens! Join them as they ponder Hollywood’s obsession with this specific superhero, rank the various cinematic iterations, and shower Mask of the Phantasm with all of the love that Warner Brothers never has.

If there’s one thing this world doesn’t need, it’s another Batman movie. If there’s another thing this world doesn’t need, it’s a podcast about another Batman movie. What do these two things have in common? Neither Warner Brothers nor the Rommies care: the world is getting more of both! Listen in as Matt, Collin, and a returning special guest break down everything (literally EVERYTHING) about the most recent iteration of Hollywood’s most movie’d superhero.

The Rommies cap off their Best of 2021 run by discussing one of the wildest movies any of them has ever seen. In keeping with tradition, not all of them are completely sold on the movie, so listen in as the others try to make the case before things mostly devolve into a stream of quotes and references that send them all into hysterics.

For their next look at the best of film in 2021, Collin selected this Best Picture frontrunner. Despite overwhelming critical acclaim and consensus, this film proved to be QUITE divisive amongst the Rommies, so listen in for a … lively discussion of what makes this movie work (or, as one Rommie might argue, not work even a little bit, not even at all).

Before closing the book on 2021, the Rommies decided to spend some time celebrating the best the past year had to offer. For the first episode of this miniseries, Matt selected David Lowery’s medieval epic. Listen in as Matt and Collin discuss one of their favorite films of 2021 and Tierney tries to work through her PTSD from her college Lit classes.

Join the Rommies as they get their cardio on all across the San Fernando Valley while discussing (Patron Saint of the Pob) Paul Thomas Anderson’s new feature. Listen as they recount the harrowing adventure the three of them took simply to SEE the movie, and then listen as they fawn all over (nearly) everything about this delightful little film. Finally, they put on their prediction hats to try and determine how this will fare at the upcoming Academy Awards. #AnOscarForPaul
