February 04, 2024 401. Batman and Robin (1997): Bat Nipples?
Send us Fan Mail
Good? No. Bad? Sure, but who cares? The boys open season 4 with one of their most-feared attempts, the fourth installment of Batman. Clooney, Uma, and Arnold serve more cheese than any movie goer should ever have to endure. Most critics think they're super clever ragging on this one. Congratulations you're a genius. We choose to embrace and behold. We come not to bury, but to jump in the bat hole too.

January 24, 2024 326. Our Season 3 Finale: The Grumpy Awards
Send us Fan Mail
The boys squeeze into their high school prom tuxedos to hand out awards for the most notorious achievements from last season 's movie picks. There's pomp, circumstance, and more wigs than anyone should ever ask for. Do not dismiss this as a pretentious, self-serving clip show. We implore you. This season 3 retrospective honors all our new friends that contributed this year as well as coming attractions for Season 4, set to debut Feb 4!

January 14, 2024 325. Trading Places (1983): Gratuitous Nudity and Orange Juice Futures. All We Need
Send us Fan Mail
This time were going back 40 years to look at income inequality, racial prejudice, and corporate greed. Thankfully none of these things exist anymore. Aykrord and Murphy rise above a script that shows its age a bit. Plus there's men in gorilla suits and Jamie Lee Curtis! So put your Kool's out on the rug immediately and check this one out.

January 03, 2024 324. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971): Childhood Horror Wrapped in Chocolate
Send us Fan Mail
Ring in the New Year with joy, whimsy, and diabetes. Gene Wilder's legendary performance almost makes you forget most of the deeply disturbing content. Let's put 5 kids in a chocolate factory and make sure they all come out traumatized. Great kid movie! Plus, we also talk about the most unnecessary movie remakes and sequels. No Golden Ticket required.

Send us Fan Mail
How do you get more nerdy than two podcasters talking about Hobbits for an hour? Easy. You get three. @mollsmusings joins us this time as we gush about this phenomenal, game-changing fantasy epic. Listen to our feeble attempts to find any criticisms and we also cover our other favorite rewatchable movies. Fly, you fools!

December 03, 2023 321. Die Hard (1988): Corporate Terrorists, Heroic Sarcasm, Endless Smoking
Send us Fan Mail
Come to the coast, have a few laughs. This week the boys go back to Nakatomi plaza to revisit this classic 80s action original that has somehow morphed into a Christmas movie(?) We don't know about that, but what we do know we like seeing vaguely European terrorists get what's coming to them by big bad Bruce. Plus we talk about our other favorite non-xmas holiday movies.

November 22, 2023 320. Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979): A Script Thicker Than Shatner's Girdle
Send us Fan Mail
Our Thanksgiving turkey for you. The boys go into the wayback to review this 70s cerebral scifi response to Star Wars. You've got Shatner's girdle, the follically-challenged Persis Khambatta (yeah, baby!), and the rest of the original cast for this slow burn but weirdly complete movie. Can a Star Wars fan and a Star Trek fan survive the same podcast? Who cares? We only wanted you to have something to listen to other than your boring family this Thanksgiving. Live long and prosper!

November 12, 2023 319. Waterworld (1995): Brooding, Wet, And Overbudget
Send us Fan Mail
We take a new, soggy look at this maligned, yet recently redeemed 90s blockbuster. Is it a great movie? No. Is it better than we remember? Also no. Well, maybe. Yes. We cant really decide but we enjoyed revisiting this anyway just to see Costner's earrings and his iconic opening scene.

October 31, 2023 318. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984): Freddy Is Creative, Evil, And Surprisingly Quippy
Send us Fan Mail
We wrap up our Halloween series with this extra dreamy special horror film. The crispy Freddy Krueger breaks out the cutlery and makes short work of a bunch of 80s kids, among them cute little Johnny Depp. The nostalgia hits hard as discuss this quintessential 80 horror classic as well as our favorite Halloween candy. Things get extra spooky as we are joined by our special new guests @jadezap and @letsbecomethieves !
