Our Summer of Chaos series continues with The Iron Giant!  This is a 90s cult classic, and one of us has never seen it, so the discussion gets lively.

To pair, the Random Wheel picked cheap reds, which I rebranded into affordable reds.  So, I chose the a Pinot Noir from New Zealand, Matua.  It’s fuller and a little more earthy than its American counterparts, and it’s under $15!

Next up, an all-star 80s flick, based on a board game.

Our Summer of Chaos gets back on schedule with The Negotiator!  This 90s chestnut features Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey headlining a propulsive action thriller.  The Wheel of Chaos selected an expensive red, so I went with the Rancher Red from Saddleback Vineyard.  It’s a bold, elegant, fruit-forward red in the $40-50 range, and we enjoyed it very much.

Better late than never!  Our Summer of Chaos continues with 21 Grams!  As with everything else in this series, we’re pairing random booze with this episode.  Literally, we load booze into a digital wheel and give it a spin.  This time, the wheel chose session beers.  These are easy-drinking, low alcohol beers.  You can make a session out of drinking them!

Hey everyone!  Due to the July 4th holiday, we’re pushing back our 21 Grams episode by a couple days.  Rest assured, it’ll be out this weekend, and we’ll be back on schedule.

In the meantime, enjoy this look back at a classic episode you may have missed:  Tremors, one of Trav’s all-time favorites.

It’s a special bonus episode of Cinemavino!  For this extra round, we talk DC’s The Flash, now in theaters.  SPOILERS ABOUND!  If you haven’t seen it, proceed with caution!

On Wednesday, we proceed with our usual schedule with 21 Grams.

Our Summer of Chaos continues with The Neverending Story!  We had planned on discussing 21 Grams this week, but as Taylor is off this week, we called an audible and subbed in this 80s classic.  This was a huge nostalgia flick for Travis and I, while Sean had never seen it!  We have strong opinions on this cult classic.

As always, we’re pairing random wines with the Summer of Chaos.  This week, bubbly is the random vino du jour.  I went with a Cinemavino classic, Raventos Blanc, a delicious Spanish sparkling wine.

Next week, we get back on track with 21 Grams!

Our Summer of Chaos continues with one of the worst movies ever made:  Holmes and Watson.  On the plus side, our discussion is lively, and we enjoy some delicious Syrah from Washington.  Enjoy!

Our Summer of Chaos continues with Rambo III!

The Summer of Chaos continues with our second episode, Days of Thunder!  This campy Tom Cruise classic is essentially Top Gun on wheels, and we have strong opinions.
