In the first episode of EwL Presents, an ongoing bonus series from Everything We Learned, we're presenting a lost episode from a previous podcast hosted by Dan called Movie Night.  Episodes of EwL Presents will be released during weeks when Dan & Tyler are unable to release the regularly planned episode.

In Movie Night, the format was to sit down and discuss a movie before watching it, then return after watching it to discuss reactions.  This episode features Dan and his former co-host Calvin discussing Troll 2 with current EwL co-host Tyler.  Try and pick up on different ideas and segments that were continued into Everything We Learned, and what was abandoned in the transition between projects!

The next episode will be the planned episode on Raiders of the Lost Ark, so be on the lookout for that in two weeks!  Any thoughts or questions regarding this episode or the bonus series EwL Presents can be sent to us at our email [email protected] or to our Facebook page.

What if Peter Pan grew up? This was the question no one was asking when this movie was made. Thanks to Steven Spielberg and Robin Williams we found out why. Hook (1991) stars Robin Williams as an adult Peter Pan who must return to Neverland to save his two children from the eccentric Captain James Hook. In this episode, Dan and Tyler dive into whether they truly ever liked this movie, how it impacted their childhood, and why Smee is probably the best character! Hook pulls all the stops. A pirate baseball game that includes death? Check. A pirate town that is clearly built for a theme park? Check. A drop-down-from-the-ceiling bed on the Jolly Roger? Bangarang!
Stick around to hear what Dan and Tyler are watching/reading and to learn what Spielberg movie we will be covering next! Thanks for listening and be sure to follow us at facebook.com/everythingwelearned. Be sure to send us your thoughts and questions to [email protected].

Featuring multiple plots simultaneously, Snatch is a diamond heist movie where you’ll find underground boxing promoters, Russian assassins, incompetent robbers, gypsies and more come together for a ridiculous sequence of events. Have a listen as Dan and Tyler go over the lessons they learned while watching Snatch and how they would handle the situation at hand.

This week we venture into the past to discuss the Christmas Truce of 1914 in the movie Joyeux Noel. This movie covers Christmas Eve and Day of 1914 during World War 1 where French, German and British troops all along the Western Front agreed on an unofficial cease-fire. Beginning with carol singing from the trenches on Christmas Eve, we cover the “live and let live” mentality of the soldiers and what actually happened in no man’s land, including soccer matches, drinking, and gift exchanging. Was there a Nic Cage connection? You’re damn right there is. Stick around to hear what Dan and Tyler are watching/reading and to learn what Guy Ritchie movie we will be covering next time!
