Kicking off our countdown to Christmas with a Tim Allen holiday romp, The Santa Clause! Actually, make that 3, because we will be reviewing the trilogy of The Santa Clause on BMP this year to give everyone some much needed holiday cheer. This week we begin with the first, most palatable, of the Allen franchise films. Where the only thing we can really dissect is why the E.L.F.S’s bug me oh so much...enjoy!

It’s no secret, 122 episodes into our show, that my guest and I absolutely adore Kevin Smith. So what happens when we run up against a movie that Smith himself is critical of? Is Zack and Miri an underrated romantic comedy? Or is it lost chasing a bygone era of Apatowian mischief? Honestly, I’m not really sure. All I know is we giggled about the juvenile humor more than was maybe appropriate. So, enjoy?

Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones turned the buddy cop genre upside down with the original Men In Black…and Hollywood has been chasing that magic ever since. Sadly, Men In Black International was their most recent and likely most unfortunate attempt thus far. A stellar cast (of absolute snacks) couldn’t quite save this film, but it made for some interesting conversations as we break it down beat by sexy beat. Enjoy

Nothing gets people (and by people, I mean me) more riled up than Star Wars! For whatever reason, the legacy of great art clashing with fandom means inevitable provocation. And such was the case for me with Episode 9. As I’m sure you heard, I had the luxury of utilizing this podcast to attempt to better understand the grievances that people had with Episode 8. And on that episode, I made sure to note just how excited I was for the final installment (at this point in time) of the Skywalker Saga. Wow. What a devastating blow to my universal optimism. As always, I’m terribly sorry if you are someone who enjoyed the film. This may not be the episode you wish to hear. But it needed to be said...all of it. All 2 hours plus of it...okay fine maybe it didn’t need to be that long. But we’re still upset!

Another day, another Netflix original rom-com shamelessly profiting off of the holiday season. Here we have a movie with two people that are far too pretty to be so upset with the world. What makes Holidate different from everything you’ve seen on the Hallmark channel? Well, they drop ‘f-bombs’ more than necessary for one. And for two...no I guess that’s about it. Enjoy this review of Holidate...

We reached Double Digits. So to commemorate this joyous occasion, we decided to watch Halloween 3! The one where they got rid of Michael Myers, the iconic serial killer, in favor of some laser masks controlled by Stonehenge. I wish I was making this up. It’s the kind of film that makes you feel a little better that we don’t currently live in the 80’s because there’s not as many caterpillar mustaches now, villain motivations actually make sense, and children don’t get brutally murdered on screen as often. Yeah, you read that right. A kid gets murdered in this movie. And there’s bugs and snakes involved for some reason. Why? Because it’s the 80’s. Don’t worry just look at Tom Atkins and his caterpillar mustache some more. As insane as it is, my guest actually has a relatively compelling case for it so I highly recommend giving this one a listen. Thanks for letting us get to ten episodes! Featuring Special Guest Star Justin Knoepfel!

It’s time to vote! And what better movie to discuss while we gear up for an election than Swing Vote! This criminally overlooked Capra-esque picture features one of the most underrated Kevin Costner performances and some of my personal favorite patriotic melodrama in modern cinema. I really hope you check it out, but more importantly I really hope you vote on the 3rd. Unless you live in another country in which case I hope you simply root for America to be better lol.

Happy Halloween everyone! We kicked off the spooks this month with Human Centipede 2 so it was only natural to end the month with...Casper? Yea, that’s right. The most adorable, harmless ghost movie ever. AND (turns out) a revolutionary film for the digital effects era! Time to re-evaluate if the critics were right or if this spooker deserves a second look.

Happy Hubie Halloween everyone! Hope you’re in the mood for some Adam Sandler insanity! There’s not really much more to say… I mean… the Uncut Gems guy followed it up… with this… so like...here we are...is it good or bad? I don’t know man… enjoy?

Saw is a modern horror classic, an indie staple, and a quintessential Halloween film. It’s also my first introduction to the filmic masters, James Wan and Leigh Whannell, so it has a fair bit of nostalgia factored in as well. The question is: does it hold up? Tune in to listen to us criticize this movie’s runtime while (hypocritically) talking about the movie for even longer.
