Burnt Popcorn

It took us almost sixty episodes, but we did it! Mike and Laura finally covered a Bond film. And just in time for everyone to have already seen No Time to Die in theatres! How does the Pierce Brosnan era of Bond hold up to Daniel Craig? Is he a hold over of the camp of Bonds of yesteryear? Or did he walk so Daniel Craig could run? You'll have to tune in to this week's episode to find out.

It took 58 episodes, but we finally got some real body horror to discuss this week! Yes, the oft overlooked genre of horror that's not only gross, but fascinating! And no one does it better than Cronenberg. But will Mike and Laura be able to keep it together as Brundle becomes the titular fly? Or will they throw up on their donuts? Tune in to find out!

We're a bit late for spooky season, but who cares! This week Mike and Laura are revisiting the revisit of The House on Haunted Hill. Does it hold up to the 1959 original? Or does it fall short despite the pretty stellar cast? You'll have to listen in to find out!

We did it! We finally got through all three of the original Star Wars movies. Is Return of the Jedi the one that finally makes Laura lose it? Or is she a convert to the church of Jedi-ism now? You'll need to listen in to discover if the force has awakened, or if Laura turns her back on Star Wars for good.

The Night He Came Home! The one, the only, the OG of one named slashers, Michael Myers makes his first appearance on Burnt Popcorn. It's Spooktober and we are finally getting down to business with Halloween. Will we shriek? Will we jump? You'll have to listen to find out.

Let's take a break from Spooktober, shall we (as much as Laura will let us) with another Star Wars film! Widely regarded as the best film of the series, The Empire Strikes Back is our feature of the week. We all know Mike still loves it, but can Laura put aside her distaste for the franchise to give a glowing review? Or will she begrudgingly offer up a Plain this time around?

Spooky season is upon us and that means slashers, ghouls, and... friendly ghosts? That's right, Mike and Laura are kicking off Spooktober with the family friendly Casper! The real question is, can Laura make it through the episode without quoting, "Can I keep you?"

Well folks, it finally happened. Mike finally made Laura go watch a Star War. Did she like it? Did she hate it? Or was she completely indifferent to it? You'll just have to listen and find out for yourselves!

Objection, your honour! Overruled! Habeas Corpus! This week Mike and Laura dive into the tense legal world with hotshot legal student Elle Woods in Legally Blonde! What, like it's hard? Of course it is, it's Harvard Law! But this plucky young wannabe lawyer isn't going to let a little homework get her down, is she? Not when she has her man to fight for. But the most important question plaguing our podcast hosts - does Legally Blonde have the right stuff to hold up after 20 years?

50 episodes in and to celebrate Mike picks his second favorite movie of all time to watch (we already did his first). We return to Ripley right where we left her, in the cold darkness of space. But after sleeping in longer than she planned the world has changed around her., but the one thing that stayed the same? Killer aliens. Join Mike and Laura as they look at this more action focused entry in the franchise and see if becoming parents has changed the way they view this movie (spoilers it did).
