Refried Reviews

In today's episode, John owes JP an apology. He led him astray, asking to revisit Superman Returns, thinking it could wash away the horrid taste of Man of Steel. JP contends that vomit cannot wash out the taste of crap. Does John agree? Listen to the thing!

The five-episode actually-a-good-movie streak continues! The guys watched the Coen Brothers' breakout hit Miller's Crossing and looked into their hearts for what made it as great as it was. The answer? Pretty much everything.

Our heroes gaze into the aching wonder that is 2001: A Space Odyssey, perhaps the best science fiction film of all time. Along the way, they delve deep into the profound moral failings of cinematic godhead Stanley Kubrick. Seriously, y'all, he wasn't a great guy. But when it results in movies like this,maybe you let the guy be a dick to a few people, huh?

Journey with the Refried Reviewers to the far-off future of Neo-Tokyo in 2019, a land of clown-themed biker gangs, street preacher messiahs, and inconsistent character name pronunciation. It's apoca-riffic!

In today's episode, our intrepid cinemanauts conquer a watershed moment in Martin Scorcese's career: Goodfellas, the mob movie upon whose edifice all other mob movies are constructed. Plus there's a LOT of talk about artificial intelligence, and a brief mention of an alternate universe in which the Beatles never broke up. None of this has anything to do with Goodfellas, but it's fun, so listen to it.

This week, we feel our feelings in the future! We rewatched Spike Jonze's "Her," and *spoiler alter* still loved it. For this one we tried something a little different: instead of convening after watching the movie on our own, we actually talked about our first impressions, took a quick break to go rewatch, then sat back down. We meant to post this one sooner, but life got in the way, like it does. Still, we're real proud of it, and you're gonna love it. Listen!

Because they're purists and elitists, the Refried Reviewers tracked down the original version of Star Wars to try and recapture the magic of their childhoods. Does it hold up, or will our boys find themselves jaded and sad? Come on man, you know the answer. It's f***in' Star Wars. Enjoy it!

The movie's longer than it was last time, but great news: this time it's good! Milos Forman's Amadeus is up this episode, as the boys discuss the brilliant editing, point out the actors' incredible commitment, and get to the bottom of just how rich "blowjob rich" is.

Okay, guys. Usually these podcasts are about sifting through a film for subtext and hidden layers of meaning, but this time - oh boy, this time. This one's more like going through the black box on a plane and trying to figure out what caused the crash. Join us as we talk about what went right (more than we remembered) and what went wrong (all the same stuff from the first time).

Our intrepid cinemanauts dive deep into the seedy underbelly of modern metal with the gritty, gripping expose This Is Spinal Tap. Tonight we're gonna rock ya tonight (assuming you're listening to this at night)!
