Within the Lines

Today we review the 2009 Academy Award for Best Picture winner, Slumdog Millionaire, in honor of the late great Regis Philbin. We also are joined by a very special guest, Jason's cousin Brandon (36:00-1:12:00), who takes part in Who Wants to be a Millionaire common sense quiz. 

In this month's bad movie review, we watch one of Jason's girlfriend's favorite movies, Drop Dead Fred. As advertised, we did not take kindly to this movie whatsoever, but is it worse than Artemis Fowl? We put the patent-pending movie review scale to the test to find out. 

Today, in honor of baseball being back, we put out patent-pending movie rating scale to the test with one of the most iconic baseball movies of all time, "Major League" starring Charlie Sheen, Wesley Snipes and Dennis Haysbert. 

Today we review the latest Hulu-released move titled 'Palm Springs,' starring Andy Samberg, Cristin Milioti and J.K. Simmons. In a year that has been so desolate in movies, is 'Palm Springs' a lock for the best Rom-Com of the year? We put our patent-pending movie scale to the test to find out. 

Today we take a recommendation and review the 2013 movie starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Hugh Jackman, 'Prisoners'. 'Prisoners' is a suspense/thriller kidnapping tale that has been deemed by some as a "better version of Law Abiding Citizen". Is that true? We put our patent-pending movie scale to the test to find out. 

On today's special episode of Within the Lines, we are reviewing the latest drop on Disney+, Hamilton; an award-winning musical created by Lin Manuel Miranda. Our review includes the never-before-used patent-pending Musical review scale from the viewpoint of someone who has not seen the play before (Tyler) and someone who has (Jason). 

Today, we announce some big podcast news as we are going to be changing up the way we do things with the Podcast (as well as other outside projects). After the announcement, we break out the patent-pending movie scale for Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams' latest film, "Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga". 

We review Disney's latest straight to streaming theatrical release, Artemis Fowl, and it is not a favorable review. We leave ourselves asking the question: is this the worst movie of all-time? 

Today we finally bring back the patent-pending movie rating scale to review Judd Apatow's latest movie, The King of Staten Island, starring Pete Davidson, Bill Burr and Marisa Tomei. We also review the latest ESPN 30 for 30 documentary, Long Gone Summer, which outlined the 1998 home run race between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. Finally, we wrap up the show with a five-round fantasy draft of the best fictional dads that we would want to be our actual dads in honor of Father's Day. 

In honor of the 2020 MLB Draft, we are redrafting the 2009 MLB Draft, which provided plenty of great players in the MLB, including one of the greatest players that has ever played the game.
