Coming Off The Reels

We are always a little late to the game when it comes to our “best of” list, but there are a lot of movies we have to wait for in order to properly form our opinions. We try every year to make the show a little more streamlined, keep our opinions a little more concise, try and keep the train on the tracks, and yet here we are, clocking in at just under 3 hours. Why do we even try?

We would love to know what movies topped your lists, and why we shouldn’t have included some of our choices, so please reach out and tell us!

Enjoy!

Pants…that kill people.

I don’t think I need to say much more about this one, but this movie is somehow much more than that premise, and definitely worth a watch.

Enjoy!

This is the last episode from our cabin weekend and we are finishing up the “Cabin Chronicles” with arguably the biggest hit of the weekend, Psycho Goreman. To say that those of us who hadn’t seen it were surprised would be an understatement. We strongly encourage anyone with any interest this film to watch it first, because I am not sure that our outbursts about random parts of this film will properly convey how much fun we had watching it.

Enjoy!

Another weird horror movie can only mean one thing, another episode from our cabin trip. This was actually the last movie we watched that weekend, which is why you may notice that we don’t all make it to the table. The excitement of the weekend made some of us fall asleep almost immediately after we started this gem from the 90’s. We also discover that most movies could be improved by simply adding a little more Billy Zane to the cast. It’s not that difficult.

Enjoy!

Killer robots, frisky 20somethings, …the mall. The 80’s really were a magical time to be alive. This absolute treasure was a blast to watch during our cabin weekend, and if this podcast can convince at least one person to watch it who may have never seen it, than all of this will have really been for something.

KILLER ROBOTS…IN THE MALL!

Enjoy!

Here is another episode from our cabin trip, Ryan’s selection, Cheap Thrills. Most of us had never even heard of this one, and that made the viewing experience all the better. This dark, dark, DARK comedy is not for the faint of heart, but we still had a lot of fun watching…most of it.

Enjoy!

Spider-Man: No Way Home is the biggest movie in years, and the first time that going to the theater felt like it did before the pandemic. It is being universally praised by critics and viewers alike, and hey, we loved it too. This week we are spending more than 90 minutes talking about the same movie that everyone else is talking about, but we don’t care, there’s just that much to unpack. So if you don’t mind a spoiler heavy episode, give us a listen.

Enjoy!

Since Christmas is almost here, we decided to record on two of the more enjoyable entires into the “Christmas movie” genre. The stories may be ones that you know already, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have anything to bring to the table, and Love Hard and 8-Bit Christmas could easily be ones that get added to the annual rotation.

Be safe this holiday season, and we look forward to recording more in 2022…as long as the world is still around.

Enjoy!

Before we post about some holiday films, please enjoy yet another episode from our weekend in the woods. Brainscan was one that may have been better only in memory, but we still had a lot of fun watching it. Plus, there are few things more relaxing than the dulcet tones of Edward Furlong screaming. The only thing better might be our impressions of Edward Furlong screaming.

Enjoy!

We are back with another episode we recorded as part of our “Cabin Chronicles”. This time are we went with the 1991 comedy, Oscar. It had been a long time since any of us had seen this one, and there may have been a little trepidation from some in the crowd. Roy seemed confident that this was still a movie that was still worth watching when he chose it, but we all know that he is the most optimist movie watcher out there. So sit back and listen as we break down our thoughts on this oft requested film.

Enjoy!
