From Justin to Kane

BOO! It's the first week of October AKA Spooky Month, and thus begins our annual tradition of talking with a guest about an iconic scary movie! This week we are chatting with local shopkeep Sylvia Douglas, one of the owners of the Edmonton comics and pop culture store "Rolling Tales", which opened less than a month ago here in town. She is also a filmmaker and a dungeon master, so there is a lot to talk about. Her favorite movie is Ridley Scott's Alien! It's a great conversation about all things spooky and nerdy! You can check out Rolling Tales at http://www.rtpop.com

It's Mike's special day and we are celebrating by riffing about bullshit for a half hour (it's still mostly about movies though). 

We talk about celebrity birthdays, the movie "Hearts in Atlantis" - which turns 20 today! - the PT Anderson movie trailer for "Licorice Pizza", and the "A Star is Born" quadrilogy (AKA "A Star is Fourn"). We also talk about sad birthday parties, touching pigs, being cool in junior high, Weird Al Yankovic, and of course, "The Human Centipede". Happy Birthday Mike!

Zup Kanines! In this episode we chat about two insane films: the action packed John Woo face-swap blowout Face/Off, and the film that inspired the term Manic Pixie Dream Girl, the insufferable Elizabethtown.  

TRAVOLTA. CAGE. DUNST. BLOOM. MIKE. BOB. GET INTO IT KANINES!

We're taking a break from our usual format to focus on just one movie. GUMP.

That's right, we're talking Forrest Gump. We delve into the movie's politics, the soundtrack, the nostalgia, the cynicism, the darkness, the 90s, the awards... everything GUMP.

Get into it, Kanines! It's time to get gump'd!

Kanines, we are finally covering the wonderful rock and roll ninja masterpiece Miami Connection, and comparing it to the beautiful technicolor ballet masterpiece The Red Shoes. This is a really fun episode, very very silly, you are really going to enjoy it. Mike used to do karate (up to orange belt) and Bob used to do ballet, so we are kinda experts.

We also talk about cult films, beaver cosplay, and why dogs sniff each other's butts.  Enjoy!

Merry Breensmas! We cover our first Breen film on the pod! And what a film it is. Fateful Findings is a twisted cult classic of the so-bad-it's-good variety, and we are glad to have seen our first Breen. And it is perhaps fateful that we find that it is the same as the whimsical pedo fantasia, Big, directed by the late Penny Marshall.

We also talk about why the Sixth Sense is a dumb title, the nature of time in film, and what makes a film "Lynchian". What can we say? We're back on our bullshit!

We break from format this episode to have a little fun and brainstorm some "corners" for our podcast. If you don't know, a "corner" is a segment in our podcast. Some of the corners we explore in this episode include Gamer Corner, Faygo Corner, Review Corner, and Skate Corner... and many more! It's a real fun, real goofy, real chaotic episode. 

Come back next week for our regular programming!

Zup gamers! Pass the Mountain Dew Code Red, because we are covering the video game to movie adaptation that started it all, the ill-fated Super Mario Bros! And we are comparing it to the quintessential arthouse indie, The Last Black Man in San Francisco, which was a real treat to watch for the pod.

We also talk about the history of Super Mario, the Canadian geese of Alcatraz, and of course, Bob gets perverted about Sonic the Hedgehog.

After a weeklong hiatus, we tackle the cult comic book adaptation, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and compare it to the blatant E.T. ripoff, Mac and Me, two movies that Mike has nostalgic feelings for. Also worth noting that Bob is really hungover for this episode, which adds a certain flair to the proceedings. 

We also talk about MST3K, Quentin Tarantino and the city of Toronto. It's a fun episode, and we're excited to be back!

Nyeaaaaahhhhh.... What's up, Kanines? After only a week of release, we tackle the new cynical cash-grab.... er.... "movie", in the Space Jam franchise, and compare it to the film that inspired Marty Scorcese's The Departed, an iconic Hong Kong action film called Infernal Affairs. They are the same movie! That's it, that's the podcast. 

We also talk about what we know of the sport of basketball, Hong Kong cinema, memes, and we try and list every piece of Warner Bros. owned IP featured in the Space Jam movie.
