Pete gets angry. Moreno gets pissy. Law gets enraged. This is all a result of the most ridiculous tournament yet. Upsets, surprise votes, and possible alcohol induced black-outs cause much friction and yelly yell yells. Join us and you can yell too.

"The owls are not what they seem."

"My log has something to tell you."

"You stole the corn!"

Those are but three of the iconic, creepy and strange quotes from Twin Peaks, the David Lynch/Mark Frost saga which started on TV back in 1990.  Why are we covering Twin Peaks now?  Well, as it turns out, Kupka, Chad C and TM all decided to watch this during quarantine, so we decided to do our own retro/review/breakdown of the entire series.  This is a full spoiler podcast covering all three seasons of Twin Peaks, the film Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, so if you haven't seen any of this and are planning on it, be sure to check this show out after you finish the Twin Peaks experience.  

We break down theories, suggestions, a very long Youtube explanation video as well as our thoughts on some of the symbolism, imagery and ideas at play.  We also talk about how good Lynch is at casting smokeshows in lead roles.  All this and more.

Welcome to Movie Homework!

This week we're continuing our series of "Does It Hold Up?"  What does that mean?  Well we're watching movies that the three of us (Jack, Alyx and StepChad haven't seen in a long time) and asking the question of whether or not they still hold up today.  Last week, we covered Gladiator.

This week's feature is the iconic 1969 western The Wild Bunch, directed by Sam Peckinpah.  Referenced incessantly whenever one does some reading on old Hollywood, film geekdom or influences on people like Edgar Wright, Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino, we thought it would be great to revisit this legendary film and ask ourselves whether or not we think it holds up.

Next week on Movie Homework we will be covering 1998's Rounders!

The NBA and MLB are moving towards playing meaningful games.  Both leagues are in different situations, and the boys discuss each situation.  A little NFL talk sprinkled in because, hey, we love Football.

TM and Pete join Law to take a break from the tournaments and empty out their 'Have Seen' lists from the past couple months. Lots of TV, new movies and old, a few voicemails, and it's like we never left.

The boys tackle a smaller field filled with top notch films for the BCCS 70s Tournament. Pete fakes seeing movies, Law misspells more words, and Moreno gets his maddest yet. It so groovy, man. Gross.

In the mid 90s, horror was in trouble. All the 80s slashers had run their course, and all attempts to revitalize those franchises tended to land with resounding thuds. Jason, Freddy, Michael Myers. They had all died and come back so many times, with origin stories that fans didn't buy (The Thorn anyone?) studios could no longer make people show up for their once favorite boogeymen. Leprechaun wasn't the answer, Leatherface was going to video, and all others were sure to follow. Then 1996 rolled around, and a then unknown writer by the name of Kevin Williamson wrote a script that would eventually be directed by Freddy creator Wes Craven. This script would be turned into Scream, and horror was once again the talk of the town. But with sequels and even a TV series left in its wake, not to mention countless imitators, is the series finding itself in the doldrums that all it parodied were when its concept as originally realized? Join myself, Matthew Goudreau, and Jim Law as we answer that question and go through each movie of the franchise one by one.

After Scream 3 came and went in 2000, everyone associated with the franchise said that it was only going to be a trilogy. But years after the careers -and personal lives- of everyone involved took unexpected directions, Miramax worked at getting the band back together again for the definitive Scream 4, which was supposed to be a film that would begin a whole new trilogy.

Listen to what myself, Jim Law, and Matthew Goudreau have to say about the 2011 film. We also talk about the MTV series, and where they can possibly take the franchise with the just announced Scream 5. Finally, we preview the next two retrospectives, which are both sure to be, shall we say, combative.
