Just Like The Movies: A Nostalgic Movie Podcast

A 1989 movie with Patrick Swayze ripping out throats while using more hair product than every woman on set, what more can you possible want? We talk about this true to its time late-80s action flick in the only way we know how, fondly, with laughter and tangents along the way. Pain don't hurt, and hopefully neither does listening to us talk about ROAD HOUSE.

Head back to 1999 with us as we discuss one of the best cult films of our time, FIGHT CLUB! There was an idea (not serious) to just post 90 minutes of literal silence, but we decided against it, you decide whether we made a good choice. This movie doesn't fit into one genre, and the psychology and anti-consumerism themes hit a bit harder than we might have realized, as we have one of our deeper discussions in our pod's history. We hope you dig it, and don't worry, the jokes and tangents still find their way in the mix.

Ben Affleck's THE TOWN, in which he starred, directed, and co-wrote. A loaded cast which included an Oscar nomination for Jeremy Renner, in a movie that isn't held down by one genre, as it delivers action, suspense, thrills, heists, and drama. We'll see you again, this side or the other.

From the creators of South Park, shortly before the arrival of South Park, they made a movie called Orgazmo. This might go down as our most "cult" movie podcast. If you love South Park and the brand of humor that comes from those Trey Parker and Matt Stone, you just might like this 1997 low-budget comedy, which is ripe with the early foundations of their style of humor.

Batman Returns is a solid sequel to 1989's Batman, reuniting Michael Keaton and Tim Burton, and introducing Danny Devito's Penguin and a scene stealing, horny-inducing knockout performance of Catwoman by the incomparable Michelle Pfeiffer. We agree that Batman Returns hasn't particularly aged well and we go over why, but it is without question the horniest Batman movie in existence, and Michelle Pfeiffer is why we keep coming back. Plus, it's a legitimate Christmas movie! Tis the season.

The Dark Knight is not just one of the greatest Batman movies, but one of the greatest sequels ever made, which includes the Oscar-winning performance by the late Heath Ledger as the Joker. We talk all about this beast of a Batman movie, our personal experiences and memories of it, and its impact and influence on future superhero movies, and of course our typical brand of humor and tangents along the way. Also, RIP to the animated voice of Batman, Kevin Conroy.

We're back and talking about one of the greatest sequels ever made, James Cameron's Terminator 2: Judgment Day aka T2. Not only do we discuss this Arnold Schwarzenegger classic, from its production to its story and action, but we also have some laughs with tangents throughout, and make sure we at least spent a few minutes lampooning the sequels that came after it. So travel back in time with us to 1991 and let's talk T2!

We're talking the original X-MEN movie from 2000, which introduced the world to Hugh Jackman and holds the distinction of being a very underrated comic book/superhero movie that set the tone for the comic book/superhero movie revolution (onslaught) that would follow over the next two decades and into today. This was our first podcast in the same room together, and it was a blast to record, we hope you enjoy it!

Indiana Jones! We discuss the 1981 classic Raiders of the Lost Ark which launched the Indiana Jones franchise, while also being widely considered one of the greatest movies ever made. We cover the typical beats but also head into unfamiliar territory, and even take down overly religious dentists.

This movie podcast will self-destruct in five seconds. Probably not, but who knows? Join us as we talk about Mission: Impossible, the movie that launched Tom Cruise's juggernaut death defying stunt-bonanza franchise, the American answer to James Bond. We had a lot of fun revisiting this somehow underrated movie that even Tom Cruise probably had no idea would evolve into one of the most successful film intellectual properties of all time.
