Didn't we just do this episode? Like, yesterday? Oh, silly us! We're just watching and talking about Groundhog Day, one of the most iconic Bill Murray movies about one day repeating forever. We all saw this when we were younger, but haven't revisited it in a good while. Want to see what we thought? We got you, babe!

Somehow, Shawn didn't see Oppenheimer. Did he think it was good or a TOTAL BOMB? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Once you stop laughing, watch our discussion of this movie. And then, just as the detonator is hit... SURPRISE 'ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD' EPISODE
Get a rope! We've seen all the big Hitchcock classics... but how did this one get past us? Especially when it has all kinds of revolutionary filmmaking tricks in it... AND Jimmy Stewart! You can't go wrong with Jimmy Stewart. Can you? Find out as Rocco and Shawn watch this 1948 flick full of genuine surprises!…
The unthinkable has happened! Shawn somehow convinced Rocco to watch the new WONKA. After swearing off all forms of future Wonkas after the dreadful Tim Burton remake poisoned Rocco's soul, he cautiously agreed to see the film... and the discussion is simply delicious!
He's too old for this sh** - but are we?? Rocco saw the new Indiana Jones in theaters over the summer, but Shawn never saw it. Can these two former Indy-heads meet in the middle to determine if this is a good final chapter or not?
We didn't kill our wife, but we DID watch a fun 90's movie! It's the beginning of Harrison Ford Month at Mega64 HQ as we run full speed down the pipeline towards the 90's blockbuster thriller The Fugitive. Were we innocent or guilty of enjoying it?
Look, we know Christmas is over, but we're still on holiday break so don't ruin this for us. Anyway, for the first time ever on Mega64 Movie Club, we watch REAL cinema: a straight to DVD Bam Margera feature that you can find freely on YouTube!
It's the holiday season! Let's learn from our past, present, and future as Rocco and Shawn watch SCROOGED for the first time and see what they thought of it!
Years ago, the whole Mega64 crew got together to watch the 4th Matrix movie, but broke for the holidays before they could ever review it together on a podcast. Two years later, we make good on our silent treatment and FINALLY deliver our reviews to our loyal patrons. I wonder what Rocco and Shawn thought of it???? Any guesses????…
On tour, we watched a TON of movies- and just by chance, out of a bargain bin we picked one of Garrett's all time favorite movies! Join him as he sits down with Rocco and Shawn (who had never seen the movie before at all) to gather all their thoughts about this movie we totally didn't know had vampires in it.…
Having just visited Alcatraz ourselves, we HAD to see how one would escape it. The easiest way was to watch ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ with Clint Eastwood, based on the true story of a real escape! Was it a trip seeing this 1979 prison flick shot at the very historical location we just explored? Or should this movie go back to the slammer?…
Here's Rocco, Shawn, and Garrett digging into Killers of The Flower Moon, which they all saw together on tour. Did we erupt with moans of pleasure OR pain during this lengthy journey to a taboo point in history?
Through a sequence of events, some random dude just becomes president. Does this movie premise produce White House level gold or Waffle House level crap? Rocco and Shawn finally return from tour with a long overdue Movie Club episode where they both watch it- both from the perspective of a newcomer AND someone affected by it at an early age. What will they think now?…
We go back to the source of many cinematic scares- the old Universal monster movies! And we check out the Bride of Frankenstein... right? She's in this movie, isn't she? Eventually?
Isn't it fun to be a vampire? We find out today in our Lost Boys episode of Movie Club- once again joined by two people who've never seen it (Rocco and Shawn) and a trained master on the subject (Garrett). Is this a tour of gore and horror, or just a funny 80s movie?
We were finally compelled by the power of cinema to sit down and see THE EXORCIST from 1973. For two of us, it's our first time seeing it- luckily we've got long time exorcism film expert Garrett to join us for this episode! Grab some pea soup and sit a spell for this special lengthy discussion on the Exorcist legacy.…
