Read it and Weep

For our final episode of Holly Hunter Days, of 2021 and of season 4, we're kicking off our last annual Secret Santa movie exchange. We were each anonymously assigned a recipient and then chose a movie or show we thought they needed to see. And the results were pretty fun! Check it out. And thanks for joining us on another year of perfectly adequate podcasting.

It's our first annual (and probably last but who knows) Holly Hunterdays Hollyween episode so we dug back to the second ever Coen Brothers movie starring Holly and RiaW fave Nic Cage and John who is a very good man. It's a good time.

And join us next week for our last episode of 2021 and the last episode of season 4, our first annual Secret Santa episode.

Look, since the Dutch left, Manhattan has just been sitting there waiting to be taken. So it's really more on them and less on the Muppets.

Thanks to John from Sussex for becoming a Meat Buddy and for Jaye #1 for writing in with some Muppets knowledge.

There really aren't many good movies about Thanksgiving, and we already watched the Turkey-based horror movie Thankskilling. So the only thing left was to watch the 1995 family comedy/drama turned rom com in the last 15 minutes, Home For the Holidays. Hopefully we got this out in time for you to listen while you travel, at least back home from the holidays.

In preparation for the new live-action Netflix version, we dipped back into the anime pool and watched the movie Cowboy Bebop: A Very Long Cowboy Bebop Episode. It's cool looking and the music rules and there's a dog but for some reason we mostly talked about other stuff. This one was REAL tangent happy.

Yeah I know we promised a week off, but we decided to postpone because we finally all saw the new Dune! And most of us liked it most of the way. Put on your poop suits and get dusty with us.

Whew. The final horror section of Rocky Horror Podcast Month got a little too horrory. But Anthony and Hunter liked it so that's something I guess. But seriously, why do people do this to themselves???

Rocky Horror month giveth and Rocky Horror month taketh a long time, with this week's The Rock movie that feels even longer than it's 2.5 hour runtime. It's a big swing and a miss, but we like big swings on this show so we dive deep into the Richard Kelly film and then talk kindof a lot about aliens.

The pendulum of Rocky Horror month has swung to the horror side as we watch the film that invented the genre, the 1960 Hitchcock thriller Psycho. It's pretty spooky!

We can never decide between TheRocktober and Spooktober on the show, so this year we're combining them into a horror / The Rock combo we're calling The Rocky Horror Podcast Show. First we kick things off with the newest movie that The Rock is badly cast in, Disney's Jungle Cruise.
