Movie Improvie: The Film Repair Podcast

Well Haters, we've come full circle. We're right back where we started: The Star War. The Jedi has Returned, and so have we, and if we've learned anything from Mario Kart, it's that the best place to end things is the start. Yes, humble Movie Nuffs, dry your eyes, because this is indeed the FINAL EPISODE of The Haters Cast. We've laughed, we've learned, we've said many inflammatory things about movuls most of you folks probably enjoy. But your Haters Three feel it's time to move on from our shouty, hatey ways. But fear not! Like a phoenix from the ashes, we got a little somethin' special and new coming for ya in just 2 weeks. So stick around.

Well it's The Holiday Month, Movie Nuffs, and you know the pop culture figure most associated with that: Batman, obviously. After our The Dark Knight episode went in the toilet eons ago (in internet time,) we've decided to revisit Mae's hatred of The Caped Crusader with the Christmasiest of Batman films, 1992's Batman Returns, directed by Tim Burton and starring Michael Keaton, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Danny DeVito. Will Mae and Bats settle their millennia-old rivalry? Will the Haters be able to withstand The Penguin's overall utter grossness? Take a listen to find out!

Well everybody, strap in, cuz when your beloved Haters sat down to talk about Love, Actually -- the movie from 2002 directed by Richard Curtis and starring Emma Thompson, Bill Nighy, Colin Firth and about 100 other famous folks -- they talked for three whole hours that has mercifully been pared down for your listening ears. It's the Month of Krampus, so we started it out with a British Christmas love film. Also, Phil and James talk about the dating sims they play in their free time, we talk about our dear sister Emily's bad bad driving, and we spend a whole lotta time talking about Henry Cavill's moustachce. Please to enjoy!

Hey you guys, you remember that movie Cloverfield? Directed by Matt Reeves and starring Jessica Lucas, Michael Stahl-David, TJ Miller and Lizzy Caplan? No? Us neither! But Mae wasn't here this week to stop Phil and James from talking about it. Also, we take a deep, deep dive into Hallmark's thirty-three -- yes, THIRTY-THREE -- Christmas movies releasing this season. So strap on your mistletoe and head on over to wherever The Bramble House is, cuz you're in for a ride.

Well gang, we gave it a whooooole week, and we're BACK IN THE SPOOP ZONE. Our love of horror movuls is insatiable, so we hopped right back in and took a look at Sam Raimi's 2009 return to horror, Drag Me to Hell, starring Alison Lohman and Justin Long. Hey, did you guys forget how racist this movie was? We did! Phil and Mae also give James a big ol' spoiler for Thor: Ragnarok, and hoo boy, we spend a good deal of time talking about the genitalia of Crazy Frog and the Minions. Sorry about that.

With the Month of Spoops behind us, we're back to looking at regular ol' movuls, and this week it's the regular ol' School of Rock, directed by Richard Linklater and starring Jack Black, Joan Cusack, and Miranda Cosgrove. Except we spend roooooughly 80% of this podcast talking about other movies -- like The Emoji Movie, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever -- because Phil hates this movie soooo much and it bummed out Mae and James for most of it. Also, we talk about the dangers of a large group of Ewoks, and what we would do with our own army of kidnapped slave children. It's light and fun!

Boo hoo hoo this week, movie nuffs,  as our time in the SPOOP ZONE comes to an end. But we got just a heckin' good finale for ya, featuring not 3, not 4, but FIVE members of the Haters family, all united together to talk about every single living person's favorite Halloween movie, Hocus Pocus, starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, and Thora Birch. Emily? She loves it. Phil and Mae? Who knows. Patti? HATES it. James? He's there too. Find out how Patti has grown a cold enough heart to hate this beloved and cherished masterpiece, and keep listening as she lays out her designs for a rocket powered vibrator. It's kooky!

Welcome back to the Haters Cast! We know you missed your usual spoop zone time last week, so we're back in it this week to talk about all the spooky witch ghosts in The Conjuring, directed by James Wan and starring Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, and Ron Livingston. We go off the rails on this one guys, as we dig in to the Avril Lavigne conspiracy, talk about Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! for a solid 20 minutes, and we shit all over ghosts and ghost hunters.

Howdy loyal movie nuffs! This week we are eschewing our regular movie hating in order to bring you the pilot episode of your new podcast, SEEINGDOUBLYOU! It's about all things CW, all the time: Arrow. Flash. Riverdale. Vampire Diaries. Supergirl. Gossip Girl. Supernatural. And so on and so forth! If you enjoy it, you can follow it from here on out on it's own feed. Next week, your regular Haters Cast will return!

Welcome back to the SPOOP ZONE, Movie Nuffs! Today, in the first week of the month of spoop, the Haters take a peek at the 1996 slasher parody (?) Scream, directed by Wes Craven and starring Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, and Matthew Lillard. Herein, we mistakenly celebrate our 30th episode (oops), cope with Phil's beardless face, and invent a whole new form of measuring weight! And, get ready next week for a special sneaky surprise from us...
