We make a trip up to Oregon once again as Sage picks 2021's Pig starring Nicolas Cage. Before we get into the movie, Jacob is once again shocked by Tate and Sage's inability to remember anything he ever tells them. Once we get into the review it's a lot of discussion about whether the subtleness of the movie worked or not as well as, of course, lots of Oregon talk (even some geography), that, and much more!

This movie was directed by Michael Sarnoski.

DISCLAIMER: The Good Day for a Movie Podcast does not endorse The Goonies as a Halloween movie and denounces any site or person who does.

Halloween Special time!! Well, that's what it was supposed to be until Sage derailed it with his hatred of scary movies. Three movies were submitted and the only non-Halloween film won but the wheel is just so Tate, Sage, and Jacob watch The Goonies, one for the first time. We talk about Chris(topher) Columbus and Steven Spielberg's story, more praise is heaped upon Ke Huy Quan, Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, and Corey Feldman are discussed, and we envision what a courtroom scene may look like with Chunk as the lawyer. 

This movie was directed by Richard Donner.

As Sage boycotts, Tate, and Jacob turned to recurring guests, the Deucecast Movie Show's Michael Nipp and a friend of the program, Aussie Nate to review 2008's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Were aliens a step too far for the franchise? Who hurt George Lucas? Harrison Ford is still great. Shia Labeouf did what he could but with a name like Mutt? He was definitely a bit set up for failure. Holy crap! That was Cate Blanchett?? This and so much more on the final episode of Franchise Frenzy....at least for 2021....wait, it's 2022! This episode was recorded live on YouTube.

This movie was directed by Steven Spielberg.

Tate picks a movie he has seen and watched with Sage but doesn't remember seeing. That movie? Romancing the Stone from 1984 starring Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito. Tate and Jacob think they should have leaned harder into one single category, romance, comedy, or adventure, Sage talks about how he enjoyed it more a second time and thinks that's because he went in with a different mindset, and we also discuss Michael Douglas' former escapades. 

This movie was directed by Robert Zemeckis.
