Monica has picked a fantastic Ambush Episode with 16 Candles. David has never seen it before and it's John Hughes first movie. It's a classic: full of problematic moments, 80's fashion and some great one liners.

"You know what I am...?"

"Ugly all day."

Con Air may be David's all time guilty pleasure movie. Not a lot of logic, not the best acting, and some of the actors hated making the movie. This Ambush Episode David makes Monica watch CON AIR. "Sorry boss, but there's only two men I trust. One of them's me. The other's not you." It has one of his favorite actors: M. C. Gainey. He plays the character "Swamp Thing."

This was a FANTASTIC podcast as Monica introduces David to the 1959 classic "Some Like It Hot." Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe. David has never seen it before. And … how did it go?

This movie … has been super influential for more reasons than you realize. Here are two key points: 1) it's the first Marvel Movie, and 2) it created Pixar. Listen to the podcast to hear more!

With our new Disney+ account we can watch Disney classics … CLASSICS. Disney movies that have truly dark edges to them. A great example of is when David makes Monica watch The Black Hole!!

AMBUSH EPISODE!

After the Star Wars watching, and let's say there is another R2D2 fan in the universe.

Now, we talk with someone who has never seen Star Wars before (Kate) and what she thinks it will be about. We ask her about her expectations, what order all the Star Wars Movies should be in, and run some names by her … even though she has never seen them.

Part 2 will be *after* she has watched Star Wars: A New Hope

We've NOW seen High School Musical for the first time …and listen to David Nerd Rage! Not really. It hits the mark, and the person who champions the movie (Kate) is the England even though the movie takes place in the United States. And Ms. Darbus is a just a weaker version of Professor Umbridge. (someone had to say it)

Our friend, Kate Swift (Mischief Managed Improv) joins us for a MOVIE MATCH OFF. We pit two movies against each other. One Kate has never seen, and one Monica and I have never seen.

We watched: HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL

Monica and I have never seen this one. This first part is what Monica and I *think* High School Musical will be about.

The second part of this series. We get onto Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Stay safe. Love you all. Connect to others.
