Split Happens

Send a text

🎶🎶🎶"Tis the season to be jolly and joyous.....fa la la! 🎶🎶🎶 If you heard those lyrics in the dulcet voice of Kermit the Frog, AKA Bob Cratchit, then you don't need 3 whack ass spirits to tell you that this week the Split Happens sisters kick off December with 1992's The Muppet Christmas Carol!!!

ANNA-is the pro this week, and she may just have some of the most heartwarming trivia this side of muppet town. No, that is not in Queens. This beloved childhood classic has more sweet facts than Ms. Piggy, AKA Mrs. Cratchit, has bottles of hootch stashed around the house. 

KATRINA-is the con this week, and there isn't a Christmas miracle big enough to save her from a button push.  Anna shows no mercy and comes armed with Katrina's love for traditional Christmas lights, facts, frogs, charcuterie, and pretty much any singing Marley.  Fa la la.

Are you dancing in heaven and never thought your feet would get you this far? Do you hear the words "Orbital be-bop" and have absolutely no confusion as to what that means? Well then you have definitely seen and love the movie the Split Happens sisters are singing out of tune to this week! The year is 1985, the clothes are amazing, the songs are bitchin, and the movie is Girls Just Want to Have Fun!.

KATRINA-is the pro, and she needs basically no trivia or facts of any kind to tell the world about the joy that is Sarah Jessica Parker, Helen Hunt and Lee Montgomery in spandex, dancing their hearts out of their butts! Wait, that last part doesn't happen, but of boy do they ever dance! And is enough to get a button push from Anna? 💃💃Dancing in Heaven!! 💃💃

ANNA-is the con, and as long as she can keep up the mantra "don't say anything good about Helen Hunt, don't say anything good about Helen Hunt", she thinks she will avoid the dreaded red button. Katrina has a few tricks up her sleeve, and they rhyme with mequila and vine!

Say it once, say it loud, it's Anna's birthday episode week!! We couldn't celebrate Anna's birthday and not do her favorite movie, so prepare yourself for a movie that is sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but alwaystime (TM) full of amazing music. This week we bring you 1991's The Commitments

ANNA-is obviously the pro this week, and she doesn't even need to write down trivia to bring you the facts behind the making of this movie she loves so much. Katrina should be in fear for her life and might as well get a button push just to avoid Anna's temporary Irish ire. 

KATRINA-is the con, and she went with a totally new approach this week. She's making shit up. That's right. With no access to closed captioning and a deep seeded fear of her beloved sister and her temporary Irish ire, Katrina is going to make up cons that don't even exist and then hide. Blessed be.

Are you tired of a world where there is just water, fire, earth, and air, and dream of a place where there is something, or maybe, someone more? And that someone more wears Jean Paul Gaultier and speaks in a made up language and makes out with Bruce Willis? We have so much in common. This week we make your dreams come true and bring you the whack-a-doodle sci-fi hit The Fifth Element

ANNA-is the pro this week and not only does she have interesting trivia, she has SCANDALOUS trivia! You know Katrina can't resist that! She also has a brilliant performance by Chris Tucker to trip Katrina up with,  a singing alien, the gorgeous Milla Jovovich, and an unprecedented 4 shots of tequila. Shots fired! 4 to be exact. 

KATRINA-is the con, and she is, drunk. That's a con.

Have you crossed oceans of time to find Keanu Reeves doing an authentic British accent? Ut oh. How about longing for someone to take you away from all this death.....ly weirdness emanating from Sir Anthony Hopkins? Shit. Wait, are you the monster that breathing men would kill to see Gary Oldman in butt hair? Yes! We have the movie for you!!! Enjoy 1992's Bram Stoker's Dracula

KATRINA-is the pro, and she has 5 caskets full of trivia, as well as a heartfelt apology on behalf of Mr. Reeves. She knows that Anna loves Gary Oldman's performance in this movie, and she is going to ply her with tequila and her vampire eyes to finally get a button push!

ANNA-is the con, and she is mixing things up by having......actual cons about the movie. What is the deal?! Who has gotten to her? Looking at you, Sir Anthony, weirdo. Can she successfully avoid trigger happy Katrina by focusing on accents, make-up, accents, plot holes, and accents? Listen and find out!

Have you ever wished for a movie starring a professional wrestler fighting aliens, housing insecurity, his secret love for Ray Bans (TM), and mass commercialism, all whilst wearing dad jeans and playing a harmonica? Could a movie this incredible actually exist? You bet your booty that is probably covered in overpriced underwear marketed by an unrealistic expectation of beauty it does!! This week we dare you to OBEY, and enjoy John Carpenter's 1998 cult classic They Live.

KATRINA-is FINALLY the pro for spooky October, and she couldn't have lucked out with a better alien movie than Rowdy Roddy Piper himself as the hero we all need but don't deserve. He and Keith David are the gift that keeps on giving, even when your instincts tell you to say, "No thanks, I'm good". 

ANNA-is the con and she also thinks that Rowdy Roddy Piper is the gift that keeps on giving, but not quite in the way that Katrina does. Is an inability to express a range of emotions a con? Is the ability to deliver lines in a believable way important in a movie? Anna has some questions.

We see dead people. Not those dead people, other dead people. Dead people are dead people, sure, but these are dead people you can only see if you have gone through a terrible trauma. Or a mild trauma if you also have beautiful hair and a flawless complexion. Lookin at you, Trini Alvarado. This week we are obviously talking about Peter Jackson's 1996 comedy horror film, The Frighteners.

ANNA-is the pro this week, and she is ghoulishly gleeful to spook a button push out of Katrina. Mr. Back to the Future himself as a ghost hunting rascal in need of some serious therapy? Jake Busey as a hatchet wielding psycho trying to make his dad look like the less kooky Busey? John Astin as a mummy humping ghost? Yeah, this movie has it all.

KATRINA-is the con this week, and she wonders, "Can a movie really be a Peter Jackson movie without hobbits?". Boom. That's a con.

If you have ever been curious about what a werewolf threesome is like, do we ever have the movie for you. We also have Werewolves wearing sunglasses, original song on repeat, denim, silver bullets, Transylvania......this movies keeps on giving until you are literally begging for it to end. This week we bring you Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf (1985)

ANNA-is the pro this week, and she shocks Katrina right out of her smug "I think this movie might actually be terrible" corner with some kick ass trivia. And a new tequila, so they are both doomed. 

KATRINA-is the con this week, and you would you think bad make-up, dialogue, acting, and special effects would make her immune from the dreaded button push. We will see if the evil tequila monster strikes again.

This movie is a love story about a man and his dog. And a group of murdering morons who kill the man's dog, thus setting off a revenge-a-rama where no mercy shall be granted. This can only mean we are ending our month of Keanu movies with the classic love story, John Wick. 

KATRINA-is the pro, and she is ready to take on anyone who dares to question the plot, Keanu's facial hair, or Alfie Allen's accent. 

ANNA-is the con this week, and she might purposefully dumb down her takes more than usual to avoid the wrath that is Katrina defending a movie that is about revenging canine homicide.

Whoa, totally righteous! This week the sisters keep the ride going of Keanu-tober and hit the surf and hope to pound some sweet waves as they dissect the 1991 action film: Point Break! Those surf terms are correct, right? A movie that brought together Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze, Lori Petty, and the dynamic and unpredictable Gary Busey.

ANNA--is the PRO this time and she has some wicked trivia and is ready for any attacks.  Bring your best con, Katrina! In fact...GET ME TWO!

KATRINA--is the CON during her only non PRO episode of Keanu-tober. Will she be able to resist the double whammy of Keanu Reeves AND Patrick Swayze??? You're gonna have to listen to find out!
