  • Unnecessary Sequels

    In the world that we live in, by now it is nearly impossible or close to it to create a film that is 100% original. There are some films that triumph in this with years of research and direction but when that's too hard you can always make a sequel. Sequels can either bring new life into a series or make you wish they never came out, and today we are talking about those films. As always we wanna know some of those remakes you can't stand as we CGI, cut out, or completely change what happened in unnecessary sequels.

  • Black Swan

    Perfection is a concept that is truly unobtainable and when you mix a bad mental state with it, it gets way worse. Today we follow the story of Nina as she finally is picked as the lead in a ballet production, only for her to slowly go insane blending reality and insanity together. A film that does such a great job of altering the world around you that even you are curious about what is going on, uses camera movements with the music to create a very unique experience. This is definitely one of those movies that come around once in a while, just make sure not to stab yourself watching it

  • Movies You Can Only Watch Once

    One of the many reasons we watch movies is for the simple fact of rewatchability for the ones we love. However, there are those films out there that while some may be good, bad, or downright disturbing, have this "X factor" that makes you feel like you never wanna watch them again. Today we talk about those films and at the same time wanna know some that you feel the same way about as we open this door and then never think or talk about them again in films we can only watch once.

  • Dog Day Afternoon

    Noone said robbing banks was an easy task, no one ever expects to become an entertainment spectacle in a matter of hours either. Sonny and Sal are partners robbing a bank when things go south and it becomes a hostage situation, what follows is a rollercoaster as everyone involved become more than just leverage. A film that tackles racial profiling, freedom of speech, LGBTQ rights, and the class system would usually never be thought to be in a film like this yet we get something special that has so many layers to it. If you haven't seen this one before, you are in for a treat, just make sure you check the getaway car first.

  • Impactful Deaths

    Death and taxes are the only two things in this world that are guaranteed, taxes aren't always as memorable when it comes to movies though. Today we talk about those scenes in film that left your jaw dropped or even emotionally scarred after watching. As always we wanna know some of your favorites as we fall out of a building, get hacked to pieces, or sacrifice ourselves to save the planet from an asteroid in some of our favorite impactful deaths in film.

  • Brothers

    There are a few things in this world that are worth fighting for, some would say country, others family but it gets a little tricky when it's a choice between the two. In this film, we follow Sam who is presumed dead while touring in Afghanistan, meanwhile Tommy a screwup takes care of his family back home. This is one of those films that has a powerful message that kind of just loses itself within it, never really capitalizing on big moments. That being said the moments that you do have feel powerful and if nothing else Tobey Maguire is a star in this making you believe the line "he doesn't deserve you"

  • Favorite Cameo’s

    The small guest appearance of a character or actor can be something that sparks controversy, creates future roles or is just a fun comedy act. Today we take a look at some of these small 5 minute scenes that can create a memorable moment even in the most mundane films. As always we wanna know some of your favorites as we guest spot and take up a small role while talking about some of our favorite cameo spots in films

  • Dragged Across Concrete

    In the timeframe of 2019 when some big films such as The Lighthouse, Jojo Rabbit, and Doctor Sleep arrived it was easy to forget about a realistic cop film in the works. Today we talk about that as we follow Brett and Tony as detectives who are suspended for 6 weeks and in order to make money must rob the robbers. A film that can be described as "painfully long" is not without a rhyme and reason as it is a very true depiction of cop work that throws a twist in the only way S. Craig Zahler knows how. Once you see what happens by the end, you'll also be yelling "anchovies"

  • Favorite Animated Characters

    Escaping reality has always been one of the fun things about films, but taking it one step further into the animated world can be even more exciting. In the world of wacky and outrageous, there are those few characters that either the voice actor or the animation itself brought the character to life right in front of us. As always we wanna know some of your favorites as we sketch them out for our favorite animated characters.

  • Ratatouille

    A great skill to have in life is being able to cook, some take that skill and are able to turn it into a profession, and even fewer take that profession and become great at it but that means nothing when a rat can do it. In this Pixar film, we follow Remy the rat as he helps a down on his luck chef rise through the ranks in France. This film has a lot of themes that are made for adults more so but since we are those, we love them as well as the color pallet and light-heartedness this film has. If we don't love it, we don't eat it, and we love this one.
