Episode 295 - Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
20 november 2024 · 1 uur 37 min
This week, Tim Lowe of The Horsegirls podcast is here to talk about his first time watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. He had maybe seen parts of it, but never watched it the whole way through. But how does it hold up seeing it for the first time as an adult? Did the tunnel scar him like it did Travis? Also, does it being a musical have anything to do with him not watching it before? And how good is Gene Wilder in this movie? Let's find out... Lees meer

Episode 294 - Friday the 13th (1980)
13 november 2024 · 1 uur 31 min
This week, Norm from 2 Nerds 1 Quest is back. He's never seen any of the Friday the 13th movies before. In fact, he hasn't even seen clips of them. He only knows of it from references in other movies (like Scream), so, we're fixing that. We are discussing the original 1980 film, Friday the 13th. Directed by Sean S. Cunningham, and staring Betsy Palmer and featuring a young Kevin Bacon. Does the movie that started the franchise hold up after over 40 years? Or is it a boring slog of a movie with dated stereotypes and tropes? Let's find out... Lees meer

Episode 293 - The Thing from Another World (1951)
6 november 2024 · 1 uur 32 min
This week, Travis is joined by Steve (HewhoisSteve) of the Botched Podcast to talk about the 1951 film, The Thing from Another World. A huge inspiration to John Carpenter, who later went on to remake it as The Thing in 1982. But is that really a remake? It's more like a retelling of the novella Who Goes There? from 1938. Steve and Travis talk about adaptation in media, and how different eras can produce a very different film, but with similar stories. So, is it fair to call this movie an "unfaithful" adaptation? Let's find out... Lees meer

Episode 263 - Last Action Hero (1993)
10 april 2024 · 1 uur 53 min
Josh is back again this week. We had so much fun talking about the Coen brothers, we decided to go in a completely different end of the movie spectrum with 1993's Last Action Hero. Arnold Schwarzenegger was the biggest start on the planet at the time, and he stars in this movie about a boy who gets a magical movie ticket, and ends up INSIDE the movie! So, does this movie deserve the box office bomb label it has? Or is it the cult classic that some have said it is in recent years? Let's find out... Lees meer

Or is it a stumble out of the box for the first time filmmakers? Let's find out... Lees meer

28 maart 2024 · 1 uur 30 min
Jason Peters of Esoterica Cinema is back to talk about the 2018 Cyberpunk film, Upgrade. Starring Logan Marshall Green as Grey, a man who is left crippled after his wife is killed. He's then offered an experimental implant that allows him to walk again. When the chip inside him starts to talk to him, he sets out to find the men who killed his wife.

This week, Gary Fisher (The Senior Geek) is joining the show to talk about seeing The Exorcist for the very first time. Often cited as "The Scariest Movie ever Made", it's about a young girl named Reagan who is possesed by a demon. Or is she? The doctors don't seem to think so, but her mother knows something is happening, and she looks to Father Karras for help. Starring Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Jason Miller, and Max Von Sydow. Is this movie as scary as it's reputation makes it out to be? Or is it just a long and somewhat boring movie from the 1970s? Let's fine out... Lees meer

Episode 259 - The Goonies (1985)
13 maart 2024 · 1 uur 54 min
This week, we are staying firmly in the 1980s with one of the seminal kids adventure movies, The Goonies. Dennis Robinson of the Botched Podcast is back because he's never seen this movie. How is that possible? Didn't everyone between the age of 35 and 45 see this movie growing up? Well, not everyone apparently. So, how does it hold up? Is it still enjoyable, or should it stay in the 80s? We also talk about music and scores in movies, and how we look at entertainment over the different times in our lives. Lees meer

Episode 258 - Road House (1989)
6 maart 2024 · 1 uur 33 min
This week, Jay Funktastic is back to talk about the cult classic Road House. Released in 1989 starring Patrick Swayze, Kelly Lynch, and Sam Elliott, it's about the best Cooler in the business. An Western masquerading as an 80s action film, but with a lead who's as much philospher as he is fighter. So, is it a movie that lives up to the status of cult classic? Or did it deserve the 5 Razzie award nominations? We'll also get some Drive-In totals for this one! And check out Jay's movie Monsters Anonymous on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@monstersanonymous Lees meer

It's the story of a week in wine country for friends Miles (Paul Giamatti) and Jack (Thomas Haden Church) and their misadventures as they deal with mid life, finding themselves, and drinking wine.

It tells the story of Arthur Curry as he becomes the hero known as Aquaman. DC films don't have the best track record.

This week, Phil Rood is back to talk about a movie he's never seen. It's 1993's Only the Strong, starring Mark Dacascos. The story of a Green Beret coming back to his old high school to find it run down, and the neighborhood overrun by drug dealers. He sets out to help some of the kids at the school by teaching them a Afro-Brazilian martial art called Capoeira. Why didn't it launch the career of Mark Dacascos? Is this actually any good?

Episode 254 - Cobra (1986)
7 februari 2024 · 1 uur 21 min
This week, Steve and Izzy from Everything I Learned from Movies are on the show to talk about the 1986 cult classic Cobra. Travis had never seen it before. Sylvester Stallone is Marion "Cobra" Cobretti, a LA cop who plays by his own rules. He's trying to stop the Night Slasher, and save a model in the process. Car chases, shootouts, one liners, and the most unhinged way of cutting a pizza you'll ever see are all in this one. But does it deserve the cult classic status? Is it 80s cheese in a good way? Let's find out... Lees meer

It's time to explore the multiverse with Searanex. He has never seen 2022's Everything Everywhere All at Once, so we are fixing that. It won several Academy Awards, including acting for Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, and Jamie Lee Curtis. Universe hopping, elaborate fight sequences, a lot of "Wait, What?" moments, and the strangest version of "Chekov's Gun" you may ever see. So, is it worth all the hype? Let's find out... Lees meer

24 januari 2024 · 1 uur 35 min
This week, Kitlondon is back to talk about more AI. This time though, we're going back to the early 80s, and it's less about AI, and more about hacking. We watched Wargames, starring Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. When a High School student hacks in to a government computer thinking he's just playing a game, he accidently puts in to motion events that could start World War III. So, is it just a product of it's time, dated and out of touch? Or is there more here that makes it the classic that some believe it to be? Let's find out... Lees meer

It's episode 250! Travis is joined by Tim "JayDimes" Wilson to talk about the 1997 drama/thriller from writer and director James Mangold, Cop Land.

NYPD Cops have created a quiet little community just over the bridge in New Jersey, but when a young officer is involved in a deadly shooting, what lengths will they go to to cover it up? And will the Sheriff in their small town sit by and let it all happen? Or is he going to stand up, and put an end to things? Let's find out... Lees meer

This week, Amy Frost is back to talk about a movie that Travis had not heard about before. It's a Disney from 1981 called Condorman. Woody is a comic book writer and artist, living in Paris with his best friend and CIA fileclerk Harry when he is recruited to do a simple document drop off. But Woody pretends to be an actual spy, and ends up over his head with Russian spies trying to defect, car chases, boat chases, and even a glider escape. But is the movie just some cheesy movie for kids? Or is there more heart to it than that? And did Oliver Reed really have to go so hard in his role as Krokov? Let's find out... Lees meer
