Filmshake could never find time for love. It's too heavy. It's an anchor that drowns a man. Besides, we've got the sky, the smell of jet exhaust, and our bike...which we own. We've also got our good friend, Doug McCambridge, from the stellar Good Times Great Movies, to talk with us about the classic 1991 spoof, Hot Shots! That exclamation point might be in the title, but we're so excited, we would have used it anyway!

Yes, we've fallen for Hot Shots! like a blind roofer.  Our heart is falling down around our ankles like a wet pair of pants. We also talk about Grizzly 2: Revenge for a few minutes at the start, and try to figure out if it is real, or just a fever dream we had.  Even if your ear canals are very sensitive because they're stainless steel after you took a bullet at Corregidor in 1945, you're not gonna want to miss this one.

This episode, Jordan and Nic drench themselves in 1998's Christian Slater and Morgan Freeman-starring  Hard Rain. Is it a soggy mess, or is the water fine? Is this flick a deluge of delight, or a fearsome flood of mediocrity? And why wouldn't the producers let Minnie Driver wash our ears with her delightful British accent, instead of drowning us in...okay, enough with the puns.

Also, there's an episode-ending trivia battle focusing on disaster movies, plus we kickoff the show with Nic recapping 2005's Alone in the Dark, Jordan's punishment movie from last time. Yes, JORDAN'S punishment movie.

Our podcast don't want none, unless it's 1997's Anaconda. What other movie features 40-feet long cross-eyed snakes, J Lo working studiously on a laptop, Eric Stoltz sleeping, Ice Cube doing nothing until the last ten minutes, and Jon Voight making up an entirely new version of the English language like this one? Probably none!
Also, Hisstory is made, when Jordan unearths Ice Cube's lost Anaconda end credits rap track, "Deepest Longest." First, though, he's got to recap 2006's Snakes on a Plane, because he lost last episode's trivia battle. Will he slither out a victory at the end of this episode, or will his riverboat crash into the waterfall of tragic defeat?  There's only one way to find out: you gotta lissten to this episode of Filmshake!

In this episode, we cover 1995's Mortal Kombat, 1997's Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, and 2021's Mortal Kombat, which totally ripped off the title of the first film. Yes, "FILM" because these movies are cinema of the highest or lowest order.
SHRIEK IN DELIGHT as Jordan recalls every plot point of '95's Mortal Kombat down to the most minute detail. How has he not named any of his children "Raiden?" Or at the least, "Lambert?"
GASP as Nic fails to recall even the most basic plots from any of these films, even though he watched them each twice, immediately before we recorded this episode. Should he go to the doctor?
CRY when the episode ends...then WIPE YOUR TEARS AWAY with the magical Kleenex of listening to the episode again...OR SUFFER A FATALITY!

Also, Jordan and Nic have an EPIC FIGHT to close the episode. Can Jordan tell the difference between real Mortal Kombat characters and fake ones Nic made up while on a Chocodile bender? Can Nic recall the names of just five actors in the first Mortal Kombat film? Yes and no...or no and yes?! You'll have to listen to find out!

How about a little wager? Winner gets the Filmshake Dodge Neon. Can Nic watch all three Cruel Intentions movies and keep his grasp on sanity? Can Jordan watch even one Cruel Intentions movie and keep his? We think "no," and that is because we are Nic and Jordan, and we did just do that, and we did not. We can't even pronounce "Phillippe." I guess we'll keep the Neon.
Also, there’s the episode-ending trivia battle. Do either of our hosts have the will or energy left to win? I guess we better ask SMG for one of those necklaces.

It's been said the set of 1994's The Crow  was cursed, and after the last month of working on our troubled episode centered around it, count us as believers. Still, despite the hardships, and the fact that Jordan's audio makes him sound like the vocalist for a Riot Grrrl band, Filmshake is proud to present its Crow episode, focusing on Alex Proyas' first film in the series, then dovetailing...erm, crowing off into an exploration of the other three films in the series because for some reason Nic watched all of them.

Also, there's an announcement about and details for our brand new Patreon, as well as our episode-ending trivia battle. As usual, there's a winner...and a loser...Is that gasoline I smell?

Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, it's an episode Nic's Irish ancestors would be proud of, as he and Jordan discuss the incredibly culturally accurate Leprechaun 4: In Space (1997) and main feature, Patriot Games (1992). Apparently, Nic's kinsmen really want to either marry a magical space princess so that they can take over the galaxy, or murder Harrison Ford.

Also, there's a trivia battle...but will the luck of the Irish be on Nic's side, or will Jordan make Nic wish he'd kissed the Blarney Stone? All this, and a pot of gold, a magical rainbow, and a bucket of shamrocks on this very snake-free Filmshake.

It's ANARCHY!, as Filmshake's two resident punks not only break down 1998's indie classic, SLC Punk!, but reminisce about their own history as punk rockers.  This episode gets personal, and if you don't like what we have to say here, just keep in mind that our next episode is going to, in some capacity, involve a leprechaun.

Also, Nic reports back on SLC Punk!'s 2016 sequel that's so bad, it's literally called Punk's Dead. Woof. Looks like the fascists won :(

The most 90's movies-dedicated merry men are back with a look at 1991's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.  Jordan's still got a lot of angry arrows in his quiver for Kevin Costner, but at least he's got the incredible Alan Rickman, Christian Slater, Morgan Freeman, and literally every other cast member to tide him over.
Meanwhile, when Nic isn't defending Costner's honor, he's listening with great sorrow at the pain he caused Jordan by assigning him 2018's Robin Hood as punishment for last episode's trivia loss.
But what hath Nic wrought?!
In an attempt to ensure he doesn't lose at trivia again, Jordan unleashes an unfathomable force to fight in his stead: The Sheriff...of Filmshakeingham! Isn't this a bit brutal for a PG-13 podcast?
