Day-Oooooo! Me say Day-Ohhhh! Daylight come and here’s your SPOILER WARNING-O. Okay, you’ve been warned.

We’re chatting BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE on the show this week, with special guest and friend-of-the-show, Dasein!

Is Tim Burton back?! We discuss the man’s triumphant return to the cineplex in all his gothy, practical FX glory. There are sandworms, stopmotion, and a very polarizing demon baby that we have a lot to say about. Plus, we chat Michael Keaton wanting to change his name, rate the Haunted Apple Frozen Fanta Beetlejuice slushie, give our movie Rec’s for the week, and announce the official start of our spooky season on the pod.

Once again, it’s SHOWTIME…

While you’re out there saying his name three times, Mark is experiencing it all… FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.

Believe it: Mark has never seen Beetlejuice, so we decided to give it a watch before the hotly anticipated sequel comes out in a few days. Did Mark like it? Did he find it “strange and unusual?” You’ll have to tune in to find out!

Along the way, we also rank our favorite Tim Burton movies, explore the news story that Tom Cruise backed out of Edward Scissorhands for bathroom reasons, and speculate why The Maitlands won’t be appearing in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (hint: it’s not what you think!). Join us for that, Rec’s, and so much more.

IT’S SHOWTIME…

As you may (or may not) have heard, our Patreon is dead and dusted. So, as a fun bonus for ALL OF OUR LISTENERS, I’m releasing some of those subscriber exclusives as bonuses here on the main feed. Enjoy! 

Sit back and listen to us gab about one of our favorite 80s fantasy movies ever made, 1988’s Willow, directed by one of our fav’s, RON HOWARD. Listen to two grown men cackle with glee over practical stunts and glorious physical effects from the heyday of ILM. There are stop-mo sequences (shout-out to our favorite grumpy guy, Phil Tippett), opticals, and Matt’s favorite… people in rubber suits! Plus, Warwick Davis. It’s a good time.

Beauty part is you can listen to this as a standalone podcast, or pop on the movie and listen to us while you watch — or at least until Disney takes it down like they did the crappy Willow series. The choice is yours.

Oddity is a movie where the less you know going in, the better. I’ll tell you this… it’s scary enough that it made Mark and I punk out halfway through for a 5-minute break so we could text each other about how scared we were. Then, we manned up and finished it and now we sleep with the lights on. LIKE MEN.

To skip directly to our main ODDITY review, scrub ahead to 13:03, but if you do, you’ll miss us revealing our new Halloween logo for the spooky ep’s this year, discussing the death of our Patreon, and reminiscing about Chinese Food in NYC. As they say in the biz, “HARD OUT.”

SPOILER WARNING. Okay, you’ve been warned.

Grab your Tums and Xenomorph popcorn buckets because we’re chatting ALIEN: ROMULUS on the show this week, with special guest Tommy Nuggetz!

We dive in to Fede Alvarez’s entry into the Alien franchise, discussing the good, the bad, and the ugly (YOU KNOW WHO WE MEAN). Disney hits us again with another deepfaked actor and we’ve got opinions about it. We also rank our favorites in the Alien saga, find time to mock David Gordon Green, and revisit a simpler time when parents traumatized their kids by taking them to see the original Alien in theaters, way back in 1979.

It’s like a hug to the face… a FACEHUGGER, if you will.

Matt and Mark, Matt and Mark, whatchu gonna do? Whatchu gonna do when they pod for you?

This week, we play a little Summer Movie Catch-Up with Bad Boys: Ride or Die, the surprise hit 4th movie in the Bad Boys franchise. We missed it in theaters during its initial run, but wanted to circle back with our Bad Boys since we did a big franchise rewatch earlier this year.

We review the film, discuss the movie’s directors coming back from that unfortunate Batgirl situation, and wonder why this 4th movie didn’t save the “Bad Boys For Life” title and do the whole “Bad Boys 4 LIFE” thing? You know, with the number 4 in place of “for” because it’s the 4th movie and all. Makes sense to us. Anywho.

To skip directly to our main review, scrub ahead to 24:00, but if you do, you’ll miss us discussing coal rolling, Darren Aronofsky’s Las Vegas Sphere movie, and The Whale. Yep, you’ll be shocked to learn the Bad Boys are connected to The Whale. True story.

SPOILER WARNING. (Okay, you’ve been warned.)

It’s the biggest movie of the summer and catnip for millenials, so of course, we’re talking DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE this week! Yes, we lifted our “no MCU rule” temporarily to bring you this spoiler-stuffed discussion of what is now the biggest R-rated opening weekend of all time. You’re welcome.

What did we love? What did we hate? Hear us talk about the cameos, the highs and lows, and of course, get distracted with discussions about Marvel’s Hall H Announcements from Comic Con, the glory of Cheez Its, and the olden days of superhero movies before the internet.

Real nerd stuff. The “no MCU rule” is back in effect after this. But first, SNIKT!

WHERE WERE THE COWS???!

That’s the question on our minds as we review TWISTERS, the sequel (?) follow-up (?) to one of our favorite summer blockbusters of old. How does it compare to the original? Don’t we worry, we answer that… and also try to understand this new movie’s storm science, get our first look at our new Superman from Superman: Legacy, and speculate why none of the OG cast returned.

Along the way, Mark reveals a lucky find from his travels abroad, and Matt draws jeers for spoiling Patrick Swayze’s Ghost for everyone. Whoops!

“We’ve got cows.” I mean, we do. This movie doesn’t. Join us!
