While the dominant conversation around the Magical Wizarding World nowadays is rightfully aimed towards hating J.K Rowling, the Harry Potter book and film series undeniably served as an importance piece of childhood for millions of people. With the rumors of a supposed 'reboot' in store from Warner Brothers (bleh) and the failure of the Fantastic Beasts series - we thought it'd be fun to dip into nostalgia and rank all 8 movies of this franchise from worst to best. 

The Harry Potter films starred: Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grant, Alan Rickman, Ralph Fiennes, Michael Gambon, Helena Bonham Carter, Gary Oldman, Robbie Coltrane, Maggie Smith, Tom Felton, Harry Melling, David Thewlis, and many more.

...and in this corner, hailing from the Buckeye state of Ohio, at a combined weight of (???) pounds, it's the podcast Two Dudes, Brews & Reviews discussing Darren Aronofsky's 2008 psychological drama 'The Wrestler' starring Micky Rourke, Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood. This film showcases a former 80's professional wrestling star coming to terms with his age, health, and broken relationships. We get into how it portrays the backstage inner-workings of sports entertainment, our own relationships with WWE/WWF (+ mentions of ROH, CZW, AEW, etc.), deathmatch wrestling veering too deep into misery porn/Oscar-bait, Black Swan and Requiem for a Dream,  distasteful nudity (and seeing Aunt May naked), and several other topics. We're drinking a Rhinegeist limited edition blonde fruited sour for this episode.

Look forward to what's coming next - Harry Potter films ranked worst to best + Tron Legacy are on the future agenda.

Dust off your boots and spurs, cause this town ain't big enough for two white men this drunk and insufferable. The two dudes who drink brews and review are here to talk about the 1966 classic western directed by Sergio Leone 'The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly'. Everything you've ever known about westerns is probably owed to this movie, but don't worry, because within its own context it comes off as incredibly fresh for 2023. The Dollars Trilogy was the star-making moment for Clint Eastwood, but co-stars Lee Van Cleef and Eli Walloch command the screen as well. Let's not forget how accomplished and iconic the score by Ennio Morricon is. This three hour epic across the American frontier and its civil war is worth every minute of your attention. We get into how Quentin Tarantino has echoed Leone's style in his own films - is it inspiration or imitation? Also, we're drinking the NECTAR OF THE GODS aka La Finn Du Monde by Unibroue Brewing. Thanks to anyone who listens.

We're back after a short hiatus to once again deliver drunken film discussion to your beautiful ears - sorry about the delay, but life has been gettin' in the way of us bros drinking in Alex's basement and keeping his wife up all night by playing guitar. If we didn't need money to survive, we'd probably do this every night. Anyways, it feels good to pick things back up with a discussion on the filmography of Christopher Nolan, the sci-fi/drama director who specializes in time abstraction and high-end concepts, and we rank his films to see how they stack up against each other. His debut film 'Following' was left out of this list as it barely reaches an hour in length and is largely considered a student film. We're drinking a limited edition Rhinegeist fruited sour (and it's very good)

HAPPY FREAKING NEW YEAR EVERYONE - both Alex and Austin hope that you had a great holiday season and that you've shaken off your hangovers to put your focus into your resolutions and goals going forward into 2023. With this episode we're finally talking about the classic John McTiernan action film with controversial "Christmas" status - DIE HARD. This film starring Bruce Willis as John McClane and Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber takes a simple terrorist/hostage situation in a closed location and believably delivers tons of 80's action fun with a TIGHT script.

We hadn't hung out in awhile so the first 8 minutes or so is us catching up on a variety of topics - reflections on New Years, the things we got for Christmas, starting a band, Garth Brooks being "the man", and the star signs who are gonna have the luckiest 2023. Also, Austin opens up a gift from Alex ON THE AIR (spoiler, it's a vinyl of Floating Points, London Symphony Orchestra, and Pharaoh Sanders.

We'd like to thank ya'll for listening to Two Dudes, Brews and Reviews. If you'd like to reach out to us - our Instagram and Twitter handle is @thewhitestguys and we're on TikTok as @twodudesbrewsreviews. Feel free to shoot us a message!

Get ready for a heavy dose of fanboyism, because we're talking about Austin's favorite musical group today (Alex thinks they're pretty neat too) - we're ranking every album in Brockhamptom's discography from worst to best. This hip-hop collective/boyband features the artistic contributions from Kevin Abstract, Dom McLennon, Ameer Vaan, Merlyn Wood, Matt Champion, Bearface and Joba. This is a bonus episode, so as usual we're a little more liquored up than usual. We hope ya'll enjoy and enjoy the holidays!

After listening to this episode you might want to be neuralyzed because we're taking all of the fun out of Barry Sonnenfeld's 1997's sci-fi/action/comedy 'Men in Black'. Why over analyze a beloved blockbuster film that everyone and their mother loves unashamedly? Because! We talk about the overall fun and charm, the AWESOME special effects and makeup (which it won an Oscar for), and maybe some of the shortcomings that appear in its 3rd act. Some other random topics that come up during our discussion are: us drinking Old Fashioned's, Vodka vs. Whisky vs. Gin vs. Tequila, and forgiving Will Smith for slapping Chris Rock (ugh).

This film stars Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith, Linda Fiorentino, Rip Torn, Vincent D'Onofrio, Tony Shalhoub, and David Cross.

Worst podcast you've ever heard? Well, our next one will be better! We're talking about Tim Burton's under-appreciated 1994 biographical comedy/drama 'Ed Wood'. This film follows the real life so-called "worst director of all time" Edward D. Wood Jr. on his journey to creating one of the most infamously terrible films in history 'Plan 9 from Outer Space' - as well as his assembly of a group of misfits, and his friendship with Bela Lugosi. The film stars Johnny Depp, Martin Landau, Sarah Jessica Parker, Bill Murray, Lisa Marie, George 'The Animal' Steel, Jeffrey Jones, and Patricia Arquette. We also get into the quality of comedy scripts, Burton vs. Nolan Batman, and the quality of carnival food.

The time has finally come for us to talk about one of our most beloved television series ever made - we're talking about the Breaking Bad prequel Better Call Saul. This Peter Gould/Vince Gilligan led project arrived on the scene with the possible stench of spin-off cynicism, but went on to deliver six seasons of methodical character-based storytelling that not only expanded on the lore of its original series, but ended up improving upon it. Better Call Saul stars Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seahorn, Michael Mando, Michael McKean, and Patrick Fabian.

Make sure you're wearing hearing protection for this latest episode of TDBR, because we're talking about 2019's Sound of Metal, the 2019 slice of life drama directed by Darius Marder which follows a metal drummer coping with hearing loss. This film was a huge hit at the Academy Awards, managing to nab both Best Sound Design and Best Editing, plus a few nominations for acting. It stars Riz Ahmed, Paul Raci, and Olivia Cooke. Believe us when we say that this film comes across as a horror movie to musicians like ourselves - wear earplugs at concerts people! We briefly discuss how much emotional resonance can carry a film, the fear of losing something you take for granted, and why a Miller Lite brewery is required to fulfill the needs of Ohio alone.

Thanks for listening guys! Our next couple of episodes will be on Tim Burton's 'Ed Wood', and the television series 'Better Call Saul'.
