  • 92 - Spring Movie Preview

    The frost is thawing, the flowers are blooming, and everyone is remembering that bugs exist for some reason. This week we're taking a look forward at the next few months to see what notable or interesting releases are coming up between March and the end of May. Studio executives have no idea what belongs in this space so it's a real hodgepodge. We'll look at all films, big and small, and help sort out what is worth watching and, most importantly, what will be better or worse than Transformers.

  • 88 - Cult Classics

    Since the dawn of film there have been movies that amass fervent fan-bases well beyond the release of the film. But what really makes a movie "cult" or a "classic"? Does it need to be bizarre or campy? Is it determined by the quotability of its script? Or is it entirely based on how many posters of it appear in college dorm rooms? We break down the indicators of cult classic movies and categorize all the ones people would be mad at us for forgetting.
