Don’t Be Crazy

We blow the top off of this episode as Amanda and Zach discuss the 1997 geological action film Dante's Peak. In a quaint mountain town, a beautiful threat looms over the people as mother nature unleashes her natural circles of life. Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton star in this 90's mid-budget thriller. But....were they the correct choices for the leads? Or could this movie have benefited from someone better?

Strap on that life jacket because Amanda and Zach are discussing The River Wild from 1994. A tour-de-force of performances from actors and mother nature, this movie just plain and simply rocks. There is something to be said about a low stakes watch of a movie, and while this one does it, there is a lot that you can discuss.

What would you do if you had a home invasion? Run into your million dollar escape room, thats what! This week we discuss the 2002 David Fincher film Panic Room. Jodie Foster plays a stoic and cunning mother trying to protect her daughter from some real bad dudes trying to break into her lavish brownstone in NYC. A simple plot, can much actually be drawn from this film?

We conclude our Pride Month series with a wonderful discussion between Amanda, Zach, and special guest Matt Braunsdorf as they dissect the 1996 queer film Bound. A sexy thriller and early work from the Wachowski sisters, Bound delivers all sorts of turns and surprises. Not enough adjectives can describe what happens in this movie, so check it out and see if we nailed the discussion!

Pride Month continues as Amanda, Zach, and special guest Joe Lipsett from the Horror Queers talk about the blood, daggers, costumes, smashing the patriarchy, and brides in their discussion of The Blood Spattered Bride (1972). This beautiful yet macabre queer horror film fits a niche genre that should most likely be expanded upon. But does the film work or does it miss its mark? And how much "bright red" blood is enough?

Pride Month continues as Amanda and Zach talk about the 1985 Stephen Frears small budget film My Beautiful Launderette. This movie is marked by wonderful performances and a positive LGBTQ story. So why can't Amanda and Zach agree on this film?

It's Pride month, so Amanda and Zach enlisted the help of Paul from the That Aged Well podcast to share his thoughts as we deep dive into the heartwarming and culturally rich 1993 film, The Wedding Banquet. Directed by Ang Lee, this groundbreaking comedy-drama explores the complexities of identity, family expectations, and the immigrant experience through the story of a gay Taiwanese man and his sham marriage. Join us as we unpack the film's nuanced portrayal of cultural clashes, hidden truths, and the universal quest for acceptance.

Jim, Jack, Johnny Red, Johnny Black, and Jose; all my favorite men. You can have it any way you like it, as long as it's in a shot glass. It's time to tighten up those boots and let your hair down because Amanda and Zach are going back to the year 2000 and discussing the surprisingly heartwarming film Coyote Ugly. A product of it's time, this movie doesn't necessarily have a specific audience in mind. But does that mean it still hold up to this day?

Hey. Your'e Rick fucking Dalton. Don't you forget it. On this very special episode, we celebrate Zach's birthday by discussing Qunetin Tarantino's 9th film Once Upon A Time...In Hollywood. We have done some great movies in the past, but sometimes we get something special like this that sparks very interesting discussion between Amanda and Zach. This one does not disappoint!

It's time to get those classified ad's out and start stalking in a non-scary 1980's way because Zach and Amanda are discussing Desperately Seeking Susan. Rosanna Arquette and Madonna star in this genre confused/blended Rom-Com set in 1980's NYC. We had a bit too much fun discussing this one!
