September 04, 2024421. Broken Arrow (1996): It Aint Cool, John? No.Send us Fan MailWhat if Evel Kneivel and and Ed Wood had a baby? Broken Arrow, that's what. Travolta is a proper cured Virginia ham in this John Woo action adventure and we cant get enough of it. Long admired behind the scenes, the boys let there feelings out with extreme prejudice. Inspired by cute, little Samantha Mathis, we also talk about our favorite ingenues of the 80s and 90s.This is one's a Grumpy Nostalgia new favorite. Aint it cool?...more52minPlay
August 25, 2024420. Aliens (1986) Deja Viewed!: Looking Back at the Last Good SequelSend us Fan MailWhy go to a theater to see an 8th sequel of Alien, when you can simply revisit the franchise from the comfort of your own ear buds? Inspired by the new release of Alien: Romulus, the boys remastered their early take on the Alien series with new content, new audio, and new embarrassing discourse! Only about a dozen of you heard this the first time so we don't wanna hear any guff about repurposing old episodes. More work went into remastering this episode than the recording of the original and we're childishly bitter about it. So that's good.Game over, man!...more1hPlay
August 14, 2024419. The Godfather, Part III (1990): You've Been Wrong. It Doesn’t Sleep With the FishesSend us Fan MailJust when we thought we were out. The boys get a chip on their shoulder this week, defending this often maligned finale. By today's standards this movie could easily sweep the Oscars, but back then, a bunch of film school drop-outs had a serious case of sour grapes and the rest was history. We suppose they practiced trolling Sophia Coppola to later refine their skills for the likes of Jake Lloyd and Ahmed Best.Regardless, the Godfather quotes fly furiously, and we finally read some mail only to realize that our fanbase is moderately disturbed (in a good way)....more56minPlay
August 04, 2024418. Back to the Future (1985): What the Hell is a GigaWatt, Butthead?Send us Fan MailWe finally hit 88 miles an hour this week, with a look back at this 80s classic. It's as good as you remember, but, true to form, the boys manage to find just enough cringe to make you feel slightly embarrassed. (hey, it's what they do). Jammin music, awesome cast, and one of Hollywood's most perfect scripts, there's really no reason to not listen to this one, kids.Plus the boys talk about their other favorite time travel movies just for fun and wonder why they're craving Pepsi for some reason.Heavy!...more1hPlay
July 24, 2024417. Time Bandits (1981): There Are No Small Roles, Just Small ActorsSend us Fan MailGet a head start on the upcoming (and questionable) AppleTV reboot by porting back to this 1981 fever dream of a movie. There's too much weird to count here, but the boys slog through this confusing, but often hilarious Python-based scifi adventure.For your pleasure, the boys wrap up this episode with another look back at the pop culture exposures we saw as kids that scarred us for life....more1h 6minPlay
July 14, 2024416. Gone in 60 Seconds (2000): Grand Theft AutoEroticaSend us Fan MailDespite all our rage we are still going back to Nic Cage. This one seems a little more tolerable in that its more an extended music video rather than a movie. But hey! It's too hot to do anything else right now so why not?Fast cars, loose dialogue, a blond, dread-locked Angie and more stereotyped characters than you can count. What more do yo need? Plus, this time the boys talk about their favorite car movies and the results need some time in the shop. Let's ride!...more59minPlay
June 30, 2024415. Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind (1977): Richard Dreyfuss Leaves His FamilySend us Fan MailWe're taking a look at Spielberg's masterpiece this week. Not usually the first movie you associate with Steve, but arguably his best. Plus, the boys spend some time remembering how great the 70s were for being mischievous little boys. Stick around to the end to make fun of our list of favorite "little green men" movies....more1h 3minPlay
June 19, 2024414. Planet of the Apes (1968): Get Your Stinkin' Paws Off Us, You Damn, Dirty ListenersSend us Fan MailMadhouse, indeed. The boys go back to the future this week to review the glorious original Planet of the Apes. Fresh after a recent viewing of the latest Apes movie (in an actual theater) our hosts were inspired to go back to the Forbidden Zone to re-watch this iconic sci-fi classic and, more importantly, take a few more shots at the Tim Burton abomination while they were at it. Inspired by spite, the boys also look at other remake-proof movies and the futile attempts Hollywood has attempted over the years.As a human, you must listen!...more1h 6minPlay
June 09, 2024413. Tomb Raider (2001): From Polygons to Porta-PottySend us Fan MailAngie's eyebrow is the real star here. A mish-mosh video game movie set to Matrix music and a lot of titillation. (Pun definitely intended). Tomb Raider is a neat example of how Hollywood came kicking and screaming into the female action lead era. Is it good? No. Has it redeemed itself over time? Also no. To conclude the "Trail of Tears" mini-series, the boys take an internet poll to see if they've seen as many classic films as the average film-avoiding millennial. The results may shock and horrify you....more58minPlay
May 29, 2024412. The Matrix (1999): Leather Dusters Can Appear Pretentious.Send us Fan MailWho knew the bass player from Dogstar was also an actor? This time the boys go back to the Y2K era to relook at this innovative sci-fi epic. Bullets are flying and the techno is thumping, but that's not enough for one of our grumpy hosts, who seems to have some legitimate, yet petty issues with this one. What a jerk!Stick around for the conclusion of "Loser Talk" where the boys review the top half of the "50 Worst Movies of the 90s List" to see how many of them they've seen. Or maybe take the blue pill instead....more54minPlay
