31:51

The First Part in our Mask of the Doctor Trilogy We couldn't let July end without a little Hallmark-like summer Christmas celebration by continuing our summer sexcapade! For this combination of highly specific events one most to go the master of the cinema. Kubrick. Cruise. Kidman. You know who isn't included in that list? Nolan! For that you must …

Sleeping with Other People (2015) 36:36

36:36

The Third Part in our Sex Pact Trilogy The only climax one could expect from our trilogy on a sex pact among friends would have to involve two former sitcom stars in Alison Brie and Jason Sudeikis who are... SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE. But mainly we want them to sleep with each other (if not us, of course) in this lovely romcom from Leslye Headland…

The First Part in our Sex Pact Trilogy For our latest trilogy we make a sex pact. Not with each other but with three films on films where friends take "the next step" together.

If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! Toni Collette should have won an Oscar for and Bruce Willis at his best in THE SIXTH SENSE! This is the episode where we do not trash a universally loved modern classic ("modern" so we don't feel so old on this film's twenty-fifth anniversary) HOWEVER... the show doe…

The Straight Story (1999) 35:42

35:42

The Third Part in our Driving with Death Trilogy Although David Lynch's THE STRAIGHT STORY didn't make the cut for our Book Club (shame on you Best Movie Year Ever!) but it's better than END OF DAYS (another strange omission from the book on 1999 in film) and so it gets to be included in a proper trilogy. On the definitive movie podcast on movie tr…

The Second Part in our Driving with Death Trilogy They don't make them like they used to. Because every movie coming out now Is. Simply. Not. SPEED.

30:52

The First Part in our Driving with Death Trilogy We open with an attack on Star Wars and then quickly move to expressing annoyance at the auteur Nicolas Winding Refn's interview style. Populist and independent cinema... no one is safe with us! Much like the characters in William Friedkin's SORCERER. Just a bunch of dudes driving through the jungle …

If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! The renaissance of Brendan Fraser as a beloved actor owes a lot to his crowd-pleasing adventures with Rachel Weisz in THE MUMMY; a movie better than it has any right to be and one that your hosts thought of themselves as too cool for upon initial release.

The Third Part in our Liam Neeson is a Short-Term Mentor When a podcast host programs a Batman movie for a his co-host who usually shows up to record in a Batman t-shirt he expects a little more respect shown to BATMAN BEGINS!

The First Part in our Dealing with the Devil in 1997 Trilogy So it's come to this. We (and perhaps you, dear listener) needed a reprieve from the year of cinema in 1999 and we find ourselves a mere two years prior... watching and discussing SPAWN?

The Third Part in our Taming of the 1999 Shrew Trilogy One host finds Julia Stiles AND Heath Ledger insufferable while the other is more bothered by the supposed nice guy act of Joseph-Gordon Levitt.

The First Part in our Taming of the 1999 Shrew Trilogy One host compares this early 1999 hit for the young adult crowd to the works of George Bernard Shaw and Spike Lee. Specifically Usher's appearance as the high school prom DJ as a callback to Samuel L. Jackson's work in DO THE RIGHT THING. It is at this point that I remind you that he has a very…
