Two Thoughts for a Penny

We have come back around to another top 5 favorites of Miranda and Will's. So who better to talk about than the great and all powerful Tom Hanks. A man who is iconic for so many roles, it was almost impossible to narrow it down to just five each. He truly is a force to be reckoned with, and I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we cower in fear from his acting powers and strength that rivals even the gods themselves. Do not despair he comes to all of us in peace to bring drama, comedy, and love to the masses. We all bow down and love you...oh great Tom Hanks.

It is time for Will and Miranda to take a look at something a little more classic, a little more mature, a little more Shakespearian. That's right your two favorite idiots are watching the Taming of the Things I Hate About You. Wait I mean 10 Things I Hate About the Shrew. I MEAN 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU! A 90s classic based on Shakespeare's play The Taming of the Shrew, and filled to the brim with the 1990's finest selection of actors including the beloved Heath Ledger. We hope you don't protest too much to us making bad jokes in this ridiculous episode. 

Join your hosts on an island adventure as they travel to Hawaii in the new Netflix original film Finding Ohana. Will thinks that it is like Lilo and Stitch meets The Goonies, and he hit the Goonies right on the head. A Nickelodeon-like retelling of the 80's classic that we all know and love, even though it doesn't give us a truffle shuffle we do relearn that "Ohana means family".  

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!...By your two favorite idiots who are breaking down Ridley Scott's Gladiator? Miranda and Will take a deep dive into this very historically accurate movie that won six academy awards; okay maybe not so accurate. Even with all of the inaccuracies and buckets of snot running out of Russel Crow's face we still think of this movie as one of the greats.

In this weeks episode Miranda and Will are floating away on an adventure with the beautiful and award winning Pixar film UP. Will only cried three times and Miranda came dangerously close to crying once. Join your hosts as they talk about this Pixar masterpiece, and try to...SQUIRREL!!   

There comes a time in every movie review podcast when one must review a Kung Fu movie. That time has come for our two hosts as they flying knee their way into Ip Man. A Chinese movie that recounts the life of Ip Man (Bruce Lee's Master) during WW2. Will has seen this movie countless times, but Miranda is having her first viewing of this highly rated and beloved film. Join us while we wince and cheer as Ip Man single handedly defeats the Japanese Army.

Finally we are doing something on TV series! Will says it at the top of every show and yet here we are eleven episodes in and not a single pod casted about TV. Well here it is, our top five Netflix original series. We are going to try and make a top five at least once a month from here until the end of the year. 2021 is already wild and we are just trying to make a little consistency in our chaotic lives. Enjoy our first two thoughts on our favorite shows you can still stream today.

This week Will and Miranda talk about the classic Disney American adventure National Treasure! A guilty pleasure for both of them and surely everybody, this seemed like the perfect movie to watch and talk about this month. It is not short on fun, wit, or historical and modern inaccuracies; which our hosts point out from the start to the finish. Through all of that, this movie is still a fun and wild ride that everybody would gladly stop and watch whenever it showed up on cable or your weird extended family put it on for the kids to watch. Even though it is a little less impressive now that Ben Gates was able to steal the Declaration of Independence.

In this week's action packed adventure, Will and Miranda are taking another trip back into the 1980s with Wonder Woman 84. The two hosts have mixed feelings about this much anticipated film that rounded out 2020. Though they love Diana Prince and Gal Gadot's performance, some scenes fell short of their expectations. That being said, they were both shocked by the villainous performances of Kristen Wigg and Pedro Pascal. Even though there wasn't a single Rick-roll in this film, Will and Miranda promise never to let you down when it comes to giving their two thoughts.
