Hello family and welcome back for the end of our family friendly movie run. This week, we're packing our fruit and molding our plastics as we suit up with Mrs. Doubtfire. That's right, we go back to Robin Williams in one of his most beloved turns as a man dressing as an elderly nanny to look over the kids he lost custody of. Surely, unhinged. We're talking Robin Williams, drag, obscene fathers, and much, much more. Tune in now to hear our thoughts on the beloved 90s classic Mrs. Doubtfire.

Hello ghouls and goblins! We're diggin' through ditches and burnin' through witches this week as we speed through Rob Zombie's family film, The Munsters. The Horror-teur has a long history of family focused bloodshed, but this time he turns to a softer story as he takes on one of Hollywood's classic families. We talk Rob Zombie, TV adaptations, family, and much more in this episode. Tune in now to join the conversation.

Welcome back dear friends! We're back and keeping the family fun on the agenda this week. Our selection, pairing nicely with canned spinach, is none other than the infamous Robert Altman production: Popeye. This Robin Williams and Shelley Duvall-led musical is well noted for a variety of reasons. This week, we take a look to see if it is as bad as its reputation says or if it's worth saving from the riptide. We talk veggie propaganda, parentings, and more as we analyze Popeye. Tune in now!

Hello friends and familiars! We're back to some regularly scheduled movie watching. And we're kicking August off with a Patreon-sponsored pick from our friend Taylor (Thanks Taylor!): The Last Unicorn. This 1982 animated tale based on the story by Peter S. Beagle features an all-star voice cast. Coming out of the house of Rankin and Bass, we look to see how this holds up to the years, speak to a little bit of adaptation, talk heroics, fantasy and truth, the power of magic, and much, much more! Join us now to hear our thoughts on The Last Unicorn.

Friends and familiars, Dalton and Arthur are sliding down the new release chute once again with the a summer horror offering: Talk to Me. This Australian possession story opened in the wake of Barbenheimer, and we discuss whether it's worth your time! So tune in to hear our quick takes on Talk to Me. 

Fiends, family, and familiars, welcome back! We're wrapping up our Summer of Lists this week with an arena we don't typically go to: Television. That's right, we're running down our Top 10 TV Shows of All Time, however that's determined. We've got prestige picks, international affairs, and lovable fluff. It's a good time to be had, and will probably fill your commute for at least a couple of days! So tune in as we talk about something we don't cover often, Television! Then let us know your picks for your Top TV Shows!

Hello everyone, Arthur and Dalton are back this week with a Garbage Chute drop talking about the newest film from Christopher Nolan AND one half of the year's cinematic event: Barbenheimer. That's right, we're looking at Oppenheimer—the three hour, historical biopic turned blockbuster. But, how does it fare? Is it Nolan's best work yet? Are movies back? Tune in and find out our quick thoughts on Oppenheimer. 

Friends and foes, you're in for another treat. We deliberated long and hard in preparation for our top 10 actors of all time. Are they the best? Are they our favorites? Is it somehow a combined assessment of these performers? You'll have to tune in to find out! So, join us for this discussion of on-screen idols and then let us know your top picks for actors. 

Hello fiends and familiars! The GoodTrash gang is back to continue our summer of lists! This week, we're taking a look at our favorite decade, the 1990s (mostly because it was the most formative decade). But, in true GenreCast fashion, we're taking an academic approach as we attempt to identify the top ten movies we would use to teach the 1990s (whatever that might mean). And trust us, the rules are up for interpretation. Dustin tries to keep us internationally relevant, but Dalton and Arthur keep it domestic. So, tune in now, and then let us know what you would use to teach the 1990s in film. 

Hello everyone! The Summer of Lists returns! Last year, we ran down our Top 100 movies of all time. This summer, we're presenting a series of lists, and we kick things off with Our Top 10 Directors of All Time. In an agonizing extra-long episode, we try to verbalize which directors speak to us and how their filmographies have impacted us. Tune in now to hear us talk about our favorite directors!
