October 04, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 75.5 MBRecorded August 22, 2021 | Edited by Dylan We wrap up spotlight September a bit late with one of our favorite movies of all time: Kangaroo Jack. This movie played constant times in our dorm and now, hopefully, it can bring you the joy it has brought us. Kangaroo Jack is one of the most puzzling pieces of cinema ever and you’ll find there’s just as much good to it as there is bad. We talk our favorite line deliveries, jokes, and some behind-the-scenes shenanigans. How did this rated R mo...

But first, The Fellas put The Ladies in the hottest seat of them all with a gam...

Brief #9 - Space Jam: A New Legacy
July 28, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 97.5 MBRecorded July 23, 2021 In an embarrassingly misguided effort to get internet clicks, the fellas put their lives on the line and discover the end of cinema itself: Space Jam: A New Legacy! Do you love brands? Death, disease, famine? If so, this is the movie for you! Dylan, Evan, and Aaron get digitized into The Serververse and have a really fucking bad time!

Brief #8 - Internet Critics
July 14, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 113 MBRecorded June 3, 2021 On our longest (but still incredibly worthwhile!) episode yet, we take a dive into the world of internet critics. The Fellas, look through a historical lens, at the origins of film criticism and how it lead us to the wild west of video critics (i.e. The Nostalgia Critic) and blog critics (i.e. Letterboxd, Rotten Tomatoes). The internet has changed the way we look at movies and The Fellas are here to whine about it! But also, it’s a scary and dangerous time in Hollywo...

June 30, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 82.8 MBRecorded April 28, 2021 You’ve heard of smoke bombs, pipe bombs, nuclear bombs… but box-office bombs? The only thing that these kinds of bombs are blowing up is producer money. And we’re to explain the how and why! We break down the anatomy of a flop through the lens of 2000 sci-fi epic from Scientology’s greatest minds and some scam artists (allegedly!) Battlefield Earth. Along the way, we construct our own bomb and create a pitch for ViacomCBS’s cash grab nightmare The Paramount+ Movie....

Brief #6 - Godzilla vs Kong
June 16, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 97.5 MBRecorded April 7, 2021 Once again we break from our format and discuss a new movie months after its release. We talk Godzilla vs Kong, the newest edition of the (hopefully) expanding Warner Bros Monsterverse. Along the way, we discuss all the movies leading up to this clash of Titans, including Godzilla (2014), Kong: Skull Island, and Godzilla: King of the Monsters. Being the big fans of the G-Man that we are, there is much to discuss. Have we been topped as the preeminent pod of big mo...

June 09, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 78.3 MBRecorded April 6, 2021 On this very special edition of Bargain Binge, we go off the deep end. Evan reached so far into the bin that we entered a different dimension of depravity. On this episode we review 1/4 of the "Los Dos Reyes 4 Super Películas" DVD pack: La Fuga del Chapo, an obscure 2001 film from Mexico detailing the escape of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán from a maximum security prison. The movie has no information online and no subtitles on the disc, so it is up to Dylan, Evan, and A...

June 02, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 78.5 MBRecorded March 31, 2021 On this reimagined Brief edition of Bargain Binge, The Fellas take a dive into the ever-expanding world of reboots, remakes, seboots, soft reboots, sequels, prequels… whatever!

May 26, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 106 MBRecorded March 31, 2021 On this demonic episode of Bargain Binge, Dylan picks a DVD copy of Hellboy (no not the good one) on DVD for the Fellas to review. But the madman doesn’t stop there and buys the 4K UHD to report on its quality to loyal Binge fanatics. Isn’t that nice? This ain’t your daddy’s Hellboy! This is much grittier and angrier and edgier and cooler and awesomer and bester. Well, at least according to the “feature-length documentary" included on the Blu-ray and 4K discs, it...
Brief #4 - Animation
May 19, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 72.7 MBRecorded March 23, 2021 On our first episode officially titled a "Brief," The Fellas dive into the diverse and magical world of animation. We discuss Disney's stubborn adherence to their ludicrous pricing scheme, as well as how they destroyed 2D animation on a large scale forever! Isn't that nice?

Binge #4 - The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature
May 12, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 96.1 MBRecorded March 23, 2021 The Bargain Fellas get a little nutty with it as they review 2017's 3D spectacular The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature on DVD from the $5 bin. Surly Squirrel and his band of putrid, unloveable misfits are back to, well, get more nuts. That's really all they do. It's a movie about nuts, folks. Salted, glazed, anatomical nuts, nuts, nuts. Maybe run a counter to see how many times the word "nut" is said in this episode. Will Surly and the gang triumph over the evil mayor...
Bonus #3 - Zack Snyder's Justice League
May 05, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 105 MBRecorded March 21, 2021 In this bonus episode, we show our asses by revealing how backloaded our recordings are and discuss 2021's biggest auteur streaming content dump, Zack Snyder's Justice League (aka The Snyder Cut). That's right! The monstrous internet trolls won! Manipulating buzzwords to trend online... Who does that? Certainly not virtuous Bargain Fellas such as we! How does Snyder's vision stand up to the genius work of saintly Joss Whedon? Are only four hours of movie enough to...
Binge #3 - Anna (2019)
April 28, 2021 10:00 - 1 hour - 89.8 MBRecorded March 21, 2021 On this polyamorous episode of Bargain Binge, The Fellas dive into Luc Besson's 2019 international spy thriller Anna, much to Dylan's chagrin. Titular Bisexual Girlboss Assassin Anna is playing everyone for what she can get, but especially sex. The war is cold but the sex is hot, hot, hot! The Walmart DVD bin may have only rang Evan up $5, but... Is Anna on DVD for $5 a Bargain? Which sexy Hollywood boytoy does Anna love more? What makes Helen Mirren so... delic...

What makes horror so fun to watch and...
