Hey there everybody! It's that time again where Leland and Spooky travel back in time to the world of the 1980s: a place where neon ruled, computers were the size of small cars, and everybody knew how to walk like an Egyptian.

This week, we watched the Whoopi Goldberg comedy "classic" Jumpin' Jack Flash, the story of one woman's struggle to help a spy get out of eastern Europe by any means necessary.

You read that correctly. So join us as we walk down the 1980s lane and remember the hardcore Whoopi...you know, before she became a nun.

DO THE MARIO! Swing your arm from side to side. Come on, it's time to go do the Mario.

DO THE MARIO!

Oh yes friends, you're reading it correctly. This week we fell down a couple of pipes and ended up watching 1993's Super Mario Brothers. Tune in to see if we can discover if this is an endearing movie from our youth that should be cherished or just a huge Bob-Omb that should never be watched again. So join us! Grab a meatball sub and your best cheap red wine and get ready to DO THE MARIO!

Well St. Patty's day is upon us! For some that means corn beef and cabbage, for others it means green beer....and lots of it.

Leland and Spooky decided to sit back, grab some Guinness and watch the traditional Irish movie Leprechaun. Come join us as we discuss the who's-who of famous Irish individuals and celebrate by drinking some delicious Irish stout.

Happy St. Patty's!

Holy double shows! Yes, your eyes are correct: two shows in one day!

This past week Leland and Spooky attended a press screening of 21 Jump Street. Yes, we know what you're thinking, and yes we really went to see it. You know what? It was damn funny. So funny and good, in fact, we decided to do a special podcast just about how awesome it was.

So listen and enjoy. Hope it sparks you to get out of your house and go see it!

So set phasers to awesome!

This week the guys go where no man has gone before with Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, wildly considered one of the worst the Star Trek movies the franchise has to offer. Or it just a misunderstood film with a lost direction?  You be the judge.  So set a course in ridiculous and join us, will you?

Original broadcast date March 2, 2012. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2012/03/movie-issues-cutthroat-island/

So this week the guys decided to take a trip on the high seas and look for buried treasure on Cutthroat Island.

Yeah, what a seasick voyage it was, too.

Join us as we sail towards what is considered one of the biggest flops in Hollywood history. We look to answer the questions: why does Geena Davis look like a dude? Is Matthew Modine the poor man's Cary Elwes? And does this movie have one of the worst lines in cinema history?

Come, sit with us and listen as we find out!

Original broadcast date February 24, 2012. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2012/02/movie-issues-transformers-dark-of-the-moon/

This week Leland is on vacation, and he took the podcasting world with him.

Sit in with Leland and special guest hosts Ben and Mel as they journey though Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance before attempting the daunting task of re-watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Then they try to understand: where do the Transformers movies go so wrong, and why is Michael Bay still allowed to make movies?

Original broadcast date February 17, 2012. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2012/02/movie-issues-whats-your-number/

Well Valentine's Day is over and gone for another year, but Leland and Spooky are still sending out the love vibes.

This week we wrap up our journey though romantic-comedy-land with 2011 Rom-Com What's Your Number?, a simple story of two people trying to decide if having too many sex partners is a problem too great for any relationship to handle. I guess we'll find out!

Come join us as we watch Captain American fall in love with the House Bunny (which I think might have been a better title in hindsight).

Hope everyone had a nice VD-Day!!

Original broadcast date February 10, 2012. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2012/02/movie-issues-rhinestone/

Well as Valentine’s Day approaches Leland and Spooky wanted to show their support for “Single Awareness Day” by doing a romantic comedy. But we do it up Movie Issues style, by taking you way back to 1984 to watch Dolly Parton teach Sylvester Stallone how to become a country western singer in the movie Rhinestone.

Yup. You read that all correct. A country western singer. Rambo sings, people!

So join us as we head down south on a rhinestone covered wagon and horse. Yee-haw!

Original broadcast date February 3, 2012. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2012/02/movie-issues-howard-the-duck/

Well it was bound to happen sooner than later. This week the boys decided to go down memory lane and revisit Howard the Duck, the infamous 1986 film that is widely considered one of the worst movies in Hollywood history. Join us, as we discuss why it’s not that bad: lots of Lea Thompson love and nude ducks that make us feel very uncomfortable. Yup, it’s just another day here at the Movie Issues studios.
