In this episode we explore two films that were released 125 years apart! Fred Ott's Sneeze, the six-second-long Thomas Edison produced film that features his colleague sneezing is put up against Logan Paul's execrable feature film vehicle (ho ho), Airplane Mode. Can we find that a six second film and a full length movie are the same? You'd be fools to doubt us, is all I will say. This one is a good one if you are at all interested in film history, lots of fun facts as we chart the path from the first entry in the sneezesploitation genre to the result of YouTubers trying to cross over into "legitimate cinema". Strap in, Kanines!

Here's another big greasy slab of meat for the Kanines. It's an epic epi! This one is all over the place... in a good way. We discuss Wong Kar Wai's majestic In The Mood For Love and how it is similar to the fun but terrible Leprechaun 2, also known as "Deucey-Lep".  Drinking Game: Take a drink everytime we say "Deucey-Lep". In this episode we also celebrate the career of Warwick Davis, pitch a skateboarding drama featuring Freddy Kreuger, and figure out the exact nature of Darth Vader and C3PO's current relationship. Chow down, Kanines!

Our most difficult - and obscure - pair up yet! We watch Lulu Wang's 2019 tribute to her dying grandmother, The Farewell, and (respectfully) find that it is (mostly) the same movie as Andy Sidaris's bonkers action boobsterpiece, Hard Ticket to Hawaii - considered by many to be the #1 B-movie of all time. We also talk about what it takes to make a dinosaur theme park movie, as well as building a treehouse out of human bones (don't worry it makes sense in context).

We take a break from our typical format, and record a special episode in Mike's backyard - complete with neighbourhood ambiance. Most importantly though, we get down to brass tacks about Bob's excessive romantic comedy viewing habits. We talk about what rom-coms Bob has watched during the pandemic (spoiler: a friggen lot), we introduce a new segment "Is it a Rom-Com?", plus Mike quizzes Bob on his rom-com knowledge! What a fun episode!

In this epi, we watch The Godfather, one of the greatest achievements in American film history, and we compare it to The Love Guru, Mike Myer's cinematic fall from grace. What do these films have in common? Lots! Mostly themed around cultural stereotyping (natch). Plus, Mike regales Bob with movie theatre horror stories, we talk about 1999 (one of the best movie years), and we introduce a new segment: Movie Corner, where we talk about - you guessed it - movies! This is a super fun episode, and our longest yet, so strap in!

This is an episode of firsts! It's our first two-parter episode, and it's our first guest! Please give a big generous Kanine welcome to David Berry, the author of "On Nostalgia", a wonderful little book that humorously tackles the subject of nostalgia - what it is, what it was, why we feel it, and is that feeling a good thing or a bad thing... or both? The entire episode is an interview with David, and it's a great one! And hey, buy his book why don't ya!

The first FJ2K episode recorded during the pandemic, and to celebrate this nightmarish new world we live in, we compare two very recent movies: the elegantly horny French masterpiece Portrait of a Lady on Fire - that just came out on digital platforms right as the pandemic hit North America - and the also horny (but for pop culture) Ready Player One, directed by none other than Steven Spielberg, one of the living legends of American cinema! This is a real doozy of an epi! The male gaze vs. the female gaze! Finally they battle it out! 

Also, stay tuned for next week's episode where we have a special guest on to talk about both of these films and their shared themes!

In probably one of the more bizarre pair-ups, Mike and Bob watch Pixar's most recent sentient plaything sequel, Toy Story 4, and compare it to the trainwreck that is 2019's "comedy" Loqueesha, a film that we decide is, quite frankly, very racist. As always, there are actually quite a few parallels between the two films, and it makes for an interesting discussion that covers a range of topics including comedic intent, colonialism, the patriarchy, and the democratization of film in the modern age. What a duo of films! 2019 was quite the year!

It's our tenth episode! To celebrate ten episodes, we are releasing our most controversial episode yet! Recorded in early January of this year (pre-lockdown), Mike and Bob make the bold assertion that 2019's Cats is a good movie. And we are comparing it to the second Star Wars movie ever released, which we are saying is the bad movie... And no we're not talking about Empire Strikes Back. It's the Star Wars Holiday Special! And yes, we realize this is the second episode in a row where we talk about a Christmas movie... but hey, it's Christmas in July!

Kanines! Riddle me this: what do an opera house in the middle of the Amazon and West Edmonton Mall have in common? Spoiler alert: LOTS. In this episode we watch Werner Herzog's boat-centric adventure film Fitzcarraldo, and compare it to the semi-obscure, semi-straight-to-video holiday stinker Christmas in Wonderland - a movie interesting only because it was filmed right here in our home city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. In fact, Mike worked on the movie, as a production assistant, and regales Bob with a bevy of stories from the set of this bargain bin Home Alone set in what is no longer the world's biggest mall. It's a wild episode!
