Watch This!

Since we are gluttons for punishment and want to fight with Stephanie again, we dipped back into the Celine Song well to cover Materialists in this episode of Watch This! Will Stephanie like Ms. Song's second film better than her first (Past Lives, covered in our last episode)? Find out for yourselves! Okay, I'll give you a hint...no. At least Alex and Paul are here to possibly defend the film. Did they like it as much as Past Lives? I'll give you a hint...no. But they did like it! Why? Stop reading and just listen to the episode, will ya?

And yet another contentious episode of Watch This! comes your way. This week the crew takes on Celine Song's wonderful debut, Past Lives. Well, Alex and Paul found it wonderful, Stephanie and special guest, Jessica, not so much. What is the ladies' major malfunction? Maybe Celine Song wronged them in a past life or something. Shame this episode didn't come out on the Fourth of July 'cause there be some major fireworks here! 

This week, Paul, Stephanie and Alex pull back the curtain on David Lynch's 1986 film, Blue Velvet. Joined by two special guests, German and Shinji, the crew uncover the many mysteries of the weird and nightmarish town of Lumberton. Things get Lynchian real quick, so make sure to keep an ear to the ground and hear all about it. Pun intended. 

Prepare yourselves! This is a contentious episode! I mean, it would be. We're talking Eddington after all, and nothing is as divisive as the Ari Aster directed black comedy/western/ take down of the pandemic era. Well, maybe Coke vs. Pepsi. That or whether or not you should put hard boiled eggs in your cereal. Just kidding. Nobody does that. Except I know someone who does and it's gross. Where was I? Right. Eddington. Join the Watch This! crew as they dissect the film and try to prove to one another that the movie is a masterpiece/suckfest. Who will win? Who knows. But seriously don't put hard boiled eggs in your cereal. 

The Watch This! crew gathers to watch The NeverEnding Story this time around. This was Paul's pick, who hasn't seen it since he was a wee lad and yet still, somehow, has a ton of baggage when it comes the Wolfgang Petersen adaptation of of the epic fantasy novel by Michael Ende. Will Alex and Stephanie give the movie a pass or will they wish it would friggin' end already? Tune in and find out...oh, and keep an ear out for Paul's long lost German cousin who might make an appearance or two.  

In this episode of Watch This! Paul, Stephanie, and Alex tackle Paul Thomas Anderson’s 1999 epic Magnolia. Things get mag(nolia)nificent as the crew unpacks this three-hour bouquet of melodrama and coke-fueled filmmaking! Tune in to hear all about it...

In this special addendum episode, the Watch This! crew takes a hard walk into the world of the legendary Dewey Cox. Join Paul, Stephanie, and Alex, as they discuss Jake Kasdan's 2007 film, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.
P.S. - This episode is best served alongside with Episode 11, where we discussed Better Man. 

Quoth Timbaland: It's been a long time. We shouldn't have left you without a dope beat to step to. 

It HAS been a long time. Sorry about that. But we're back! Back with a dope beat to step to! This time we, the intrepid Watch This! trio, step to the Robbie Williams biopic/musical Better Man. We're so glad to be back. Too bad we couldn't come back with a better movie! HA! Actually one of us liked it. Take a listen to find out who... 

Another week of Watch This! Another week closer to halloweeen! Another week of spooky flicks! This week, Join Paul, Steph, and Alex as they step down into the basement of Zach Cregger's 2022 debut horror, "Barbarian". Listen if you dare... we promise not to be too BARBARIC!

The second week of spooky season is sure to be terrifying! In our second edition of our Halloween spectacular series, the Watch This! crew slashes their way through Damien Leone's 2018 slasher film, "Terrifier". Join us and discover if we loved it... or if we were SPLIT down the middle!
