What we’re Enjoying

Jay has been rewatching some great episodes of the classic series Mythbusters and revisiting all the fun that Adam and Jamie created from blowing things up. Shua enjoyed the over the top action of the latest holiday movie Red One, starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, saving JK Simmons Santa Claus, and of course Christmas.  

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay watched some Jedi travel through time. Ok, they weren’t Jedi in this one, but still. Jumper features Hayden Christensen as a young time jumper and Samuel L. Jackson and the one chasing him. It was a fun idea, that didn’t quite develop the characters enough. But there was plenty to enjoy throughout. Read his article on RetroZap.com.  And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. There are some new locations from Agents Carter and Deadpool and Wolverine. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.

Enjoy Movies! 

Movies are an important part of our lives. And every decade brought more films that helped to develop who we were. This week we look back on specific movies that we are thankful for because of the impact they had. Join us as we take a retrospective look at each decade and share why we love these stories.

Shua found another old book. The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury was a fascinating prediction of where the human race was headed. While not all of Bradbury’s predictions may have come true, the human nature that he spotlighted is still as ugly as ever. Jay revisited the classic Bill Murray, Harold Ramis movie Stripes. Not only did he have a great time on his rewatch, he learned some interesting things about the original vision for it too. 

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay found some footage of the time when a gigantic creature attacked New York. Cloverfield was JJ Abrahms vision of a kaiju, filmed in a unique way. Scary and different are good ways to describe this 2008 flick. Read his article on RetroZap.com.  And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com.

Enjoy TV! 

It’s that time of year, when the world falls in love….with the Star Wars Holiday Special! That classic forgotten show that has now been found and is readily available. But there are so many other shows that have graced the boob tube and have been lost to television oblivion. So this week we celebrate forgotten TV.  Should these show have lasted? Or was it better that they were here and gone quickly?

What we’re Enjoying

Jay enjoyed a lot of fun and laughs as he finished up the latest season of Only Murders in the Building. Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez nailed it again along with a plethora of other stars populating season 4. And now that we know there’s going to be a season 5, you can bet there will be a cliffhanger ending. Shua checked out the new Robert Zemeckis movie “Here” with Tom Hanks and Robin Wright. A movie that takes place in one place where the camera doesn’t move. The story moves back and forth through time, stringing together a story of the house and the families that lived there. Not the strongest story, but definitely worth experiencing. 

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay revisits the 2007 Will Smith apocalypse/zombie movie “I am Legend”. The third movie to adapt the 1954 novel by Richard Matheson. It has some great stuff throughout, despite changing the ending significantly.  Read his article on RetroZap.com.  And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com.

Shua is trying to get through all the great things he’s been enjoying the last couple months. And in the meantime he’s been listening to some Christmas music. And NO! He’s not ashamed of it at all. Jay has been watching a series on Peacock called The Resort. It’s an interesting mystery that stars Cristin Milioti and William Jackson Harper about a couple that make some interesting finds on a resort island. 

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week Sci-Fi Saturdays returns. Jay examines the 2007 space movie Sunshine. The movie is about a group of astronauts that are reigniting the sun, but what’s more interesting is the impressive cast. Cillian Murphy, Michelle Yeoh, Rose Byrne, Benedict Wong, and Chris Evans are among the big names that are found in this movie that has drifted into obscurity.  Read his article on RetroZap.com.  And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. There are some new locations from Agents of SHIELD season 3. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.

Enjoy TV! 

When Gene Roddenberry was trying to get Star Trek off the ground, it took a lot of convincing of executives, the help of influential stars, and a lot of reworking of ideas, stories, and characters. They created the pilot and it wasn’t quite up to the standards that would manage to get it on the air. But eventually, the classic episodes we know and love did find their way to our TVs. Much has been written about and discussed about it’s legacy and influence, and we share some of the episodes that made it special to us. Brace for impact and get ready to explore Star Trek the original series.

Jay has been powering through his 31 Days of Horror and found a gem with the Irish horror/comedy 2012 movie Grabbers. It’s a lot like Tremors, but with more Ireland and more drinking. It was scary, funny, and entertaining. Shua couldn’t wait to watch the documentary ¡Casa Bonita mi Amor! It’s the story of South Park creator Trey Parker buying his favorite childhood destination, the famous Mexican restaurant Casa Bonita. Turns out this was Shua’s place of employment for 23 years, so he was really interested.

Enjoy Being Scared! 

You can’t deny that people can’t seem to get enough of getting scared. Psychologists think that there might be a reason that we keep coming back to spooky situations. And it may just help us survive. After examining exactly what happens when something frightening happens, we start to examine our own fears.

Shua was not ready for prime time when he saw the new movie Saturday Night. It’s the tale of the first, hectic night of the long running NBC skit comedy show Saturday Night Live. While not being 100% accurate, it is very informative and extremely entertaining with good performances of the legendary comedians and others involved in the creation of this American icon. Jay is Enjoying the HBO dramatic series The Penguin, an origin story of the classic DC comics Batman villain. Colin Farrell’s amazing transformation into the title character is phenomenal.

Enjoy Witches! 

For hundreds of years witches have been the source of stories and fear. But the origins and creators of these fears are way scarier than what might have been actual practicing witches. A written record of a witch dates back almost 3000 years ago. In the mid 1400s some really ignorant and cowardly men wrote a book that created a hysteria of violence towards women who they accused of practicing witchcraft (whether they were or not)

Have we become wiser and more evolved today? Well, probably not. But we have a ton of witch characters in TV, books, and movies that can entertain us and even make us question the wisdom of how we treat others. Classic characters like Elphaba and Glenda from Wizard of Oz have lasted generations. Cartoon favorites like Maleficent, Broomhilda, and Sabrina gave us opportunities to laugh at the characters as kids. 

Then, at the end of the 20th century, the characters in Harry Potter truly showed that witches could be powerful heroes. It really changed people’s perspectives of witches in our culture. Now we see them pop up in all kinds of different ways, both good and bad. We have no doubt that witches’ legendary status will last forever. 

Which witch do you watch? Who's your favorite? First person that emails me with the subject line, “I’ll get you my little pretty” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]

Jay is enjoying the latest MCU outing on Disney+ with Agatha All Along. This witchy series has a familiar feeling while also being pretty unique. You can check out new episodes through October. Shua has been lazy reading a 2007 BBC radio drama based on the Douglas Adams series Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. It stars Harry Enfield, Billy Boyd, and academy award winner Olivia Coleman. Crazy fun British humor.

Enjoy John Candy! 

John Candy was a Canadian actor, comedian, and all around nice guy. His humor was spotlighted on the series SCTV and expanded into the movies. Sometimes he played secondary characters, but other times he played a lovable and bumbling hero that we loved to root for. His life ended way too early, but he left us with some great comedy to enjoy for years to come. 

Since we are closer and closer to Halloween, we pair some of the most popular candies with some of John Candy’s best movies. What a tasty way to laugh!

Enjoy Haunted Houses! 

Welcome foolish Earbuds! We will take you on a tour of Haunted Houses from movies, TV, and the real world. What is it about an old spooky house that is falling apart, and making mysterious noises…and people died there that scares us so much? Maybe there’s no rational explanation, but it sure is fun. There have been countless stories for generations that get our blood flowing and our heart racing fast. 

But movies and TV aren’t the only place you can get frightened of a casa. There are real life ones that you can visit to hear histories of horror such as the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado or the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California.

And of course the classic haunted houses in theme parks such as the Haunted Mansion in several Disney Parks and others across the globe.

After the premiere of Agatha All Along on Disney+, Jay jumped headfirst into another Witches’ Road. He watched The Wizard of Oz for the first time in years. Turns out it’s still a good movie and really quite creepy. It’s easy to find and a definite classic you should revisit (or check out for the first time) Shua and his wife ventured out to a movie night at the Alamo. Without many expectations, they were pleasantly surprised by the newest animated interpretation of a classic toy, Transformers One. With a good story, an all-star cast, and great animation, it really put everything together in an entertaining way. 

Enjoy Music! 

We love our space songs. Not soundtracks from sci-fi (although those are great too) but songs that artists have written specifically about space.
