We're hitting Mission Impossible this week and boy howdy is it claustrophobic. Join us for a Brian De Palma love fest where we discuss arguably the smallest, most cramped, big-budget action film of all time. Where do we stand on Tom Cruise as an alien cult leader and people who think this movie doesn't have a plot? Find out on this week's episode of Dad Movies.

It's John Wick 1 week on the podcast and we have one of our most deliriously insane conversations yet. Is John Wick the story of a blood-thirsty vengeful rampage or a man honoring his wife? We talk shootouts, color theory, and violently disagreeing on the message of the movie. Most importantly, Dad dives into a dead religion to find easter eggs. 

We're back from our Christmas/sick people break with the first Dad Movies of 2022! This week we tackle Highlander, a graphically violent, occasionally very sexual, fairy tale about immortals who cut off each other's heads for magic power. Somehow Dad managed to avoid seeing this movie for 35 years, but finally, his life is complete.

This week we're tackling the most hack opinion in movie fandom, that Die Hard is a Christmas movie. We get smart, we get stupid, we'll help you blow the minds of anyone who dares still ask this question.

We continue to dive into the Christmas season with 1988's Christmas horror classic Scrooged. Yes, you heard us right, it's a horror movie. Just one that happens to be hysterical. We talk ghosts, the horror of Christmas, and revel in a shared favorite film. Enjoy and share.

We're back to kick off the Christmas season with arguably the best Christmas movie of all time, Home Alone. We talk about its troubled production, the brilliance of its cast, if the Mccallister family was mob-connected, and whether the Wet Bandits should be the dead bandits. Happy holidays!

It's the Dad Movie's Thanksgiving special with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. We gush over a beloved classic before taking a right turn into philosophical comedy talk. What makes something a comedy, and is Planes, Trains, and Automobiles the funniest drama of all time? Or is it a comedy with brilliant dramatic moments? Find out on this week's very special episode of Dad Movies.

We're back from a sinus infection break, still sniffling, but still ain't afraid of no ghosts. This week we're diving into the magic of Ghostbusters, the surprisingly horny movie about scientists fighting the undead. A little bit of a content warning, we talk a lot about Dan Aykroyd's sexual ghost fantasies far more than we were anticipating. This one might be PG-13.

We wrap up this year's Halloween Dad Movie extravaganza with The Fly. Long live the grossest love story you'll ever see about a man who becomes a fly and suddenly becomes pro-life.

Halloween continues with Ernest Scared Stupid, easily one of the top 10 scariest movies for kids ever made. We talk childhood fear, evil trolls, family-friendly gore, and a little Ernest history. Most importantly, Dad admits JMB was right for wanting to watch this movie again.
