The Movies of Happenstance

Jason and Craig drive an ambulance around the gritty nighttime streets of New York City in search of a good Nicholas Cage performance in the Martin Scorsese's "Bringing out the Dead" while John Travolta chases after them asking for a drink of water in the star-studded Erin Brokovitch-esque "A Civil Action". See you at the movies!

Love is in the air as Jason and Craig yack about Praise, the dismal, dour and depressingly honest Aussie love story with a fantastic soundtrack by Dirty Three, before they embark on the sugar rush that is the overly saccharine English romcom of Notting Hill. See you at the movies!

Craig returns from his sick box and bumps Sam Altman's Monster to the sidelines to join Jason to chat about probably the highlight of the year so far, bringing Gandalf and George of the Jungle together in the remarkable Gods and Monsters, before they start peering over neighbourhood fences to try to catch their neighbours doing something despicable in the twisty Arlington Road. See you at the movies!

With Craig away sick with an infected bioport (and the 'rona), Jason and ChatGPT chat about the body horror shock of the prophetic eXistenZ before diving under the waves to escape from genetically engineered sharks in the weird Jurassic Park / Abyss crossover Deep Blue Sea. See you at the movies!

While Craig attempts to set up a WiFi Mesh using root vegetables, Jason is beamed up to an intergalactic adventure in the wonderful Galaxy Quest, only to return to Earth with a thud, to the tune of "All Star" by Smash Mouth, as he finds himself in the ho-hum superhero parody of Mystery Men.

This week a sickly Craig attempts to steal Jason's limelight but is temporarily expelled from the podcast instead as the pair declare their love for Yes, Minister and enter the filmed stage play of David Mamet's "The Winslow Boy" before seeking psychological help in small-town USA with the understated but very funny "Mumford".

Craig and Jason fight over a mysterious remote control and are transported first back to the melodramatic 1990s, and then to the monochromatic 1950s, to disrupt fictitious lives in the eventually colourful Pleasantville, before time-jumping again to the 1960s where Winona is waiting with a strong female cast to transport us into the world of Girl, Interrupted. See you at the movies!

Jason and Craig enter Kubrik's dreamscape to travel under the rainbow to the tune of a single, repeated note on the piano in the curious fable of fidelity in Eyes Wide Shut before retreating to a heist turned romance in the strangely nude The Thomas Crown Affair. See you at the movies!
