This week the CTC crew dives into the Japanese sensation Battle Royale. 

In addition to Battle Royale we also discuss the Oscar nominations, recent Hollywood passings, and new releases in theaters and on home video.

After a week off due to sickness and schedule changes, the CTC crew is back with our discussion of Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals.  This film had huge Oscar buzz last year, but saw only one nomination when the awards were announced.  We also offer our predictions for this year's Best Picture nominees.

Step into the isolation tank this week as we take a look back at Ken Russell's adaptation of Paddy Chayefsky's novel.  In addition we talk about the new releases on home video and in theaters as well as what we watched last week.

This week we ring out the old and ring in the new with something unique.  Frank is the story of a group of musicians trying to record their first album.  They are led by enigmatic frontman Frank who wears a huge fiberglass head all the time, on stage and off.

Merry Christmas from the CTC crew as we take a look at some of our favorite holiday movies and specials.

This week CTC looks at the 1951 version of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.  This version starring Alastair Sim as Scrooge is probably the most popular and well regarded version of this holiday classic.  Also new release news and once again we forget to cover what we watched last week.

This week we check in to the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and share our thoughts on this ensemble film that is a romance, a comedy, and a drama all rolled together with a cast that knows a thing or two about acting and have the awards and nominations to back them up.  Heck two of them are officially Dames.

Car problems lead to a last minute substitution this week as the CTC crew looks at One Million Years B.C., a movie with Ray Harryhausen dinosaurs and Raquel Welch in a fur bikini. Plus new release news and talk about Christmas movies, Coco, and Lavalantula.

This week the CTC crew discuss Walter Hill's rock and roll fable, Streets of Fire from 1984. A cult film with a killer soundtrack. Also new release news and the first round of awards season news kicking off the road to Oscars 2018.

We finally hit our 100th episode and to celebrate we take a look back at our memories of these first couple of years. After that we dive into our movie for the week Charlie Chaplin's 1931 classic City Lights. All of this plus new release news, a brief discussion of Girls Trip and some other movies we watched, and a farewell to Della Reese and David Cassidy.
