June 24, 2012 22:39 - 47 minutes - 65.8 MBThis week, we celebrate summer with a visit to Amity Island circa 1978 with a review of Jaws 2. Sheriff Brody is looked Tanned, but not at all Rested and he is certainly not Ready to deal with another Great White. It is almost impossible not to compare this one to the original, but we try our best. We also chat briefly about the film noir Dead Reckoning and sort out how we're going to schedule some podcasting into our summer. Please share your thoughts by phone at 206-338-0793 or via email ...

June 06, 2012 00:36 - 38 minutes - 61.5 MBWe celebrate our 75th show with a visit from an old friend; Mr. Cary Grant. The Talk of the Town is an interesting mix of drama and comedy, featuring three of the biggest stars of the era. How does it hold up today? Should it be remembered with the great films of the 40s or just lumped in with second tier TCM fodder? We also chat about Sherlock: The Final Problem, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrells, The Guard and Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy. That's a whole lot of commas. Sadly, it was a ...

May 09, 2012 01:56 - 45 minutes - 63.1 MBThere's a whole lotta shakin' going on this week with a look at 1974's Earthquake. Neither of us had seen it before, but we knew that we were in for a wild ride. The really don't make 'em like this anymore. We didn't watch any other movies this week, as our social lives have gotten in the way of our anti-social lives. We'd love to hear your thoughts, so drop us at line at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]

May 01, 2012 01:32 - 34 minutes - 54.5 MBArMAYgeddon takes off this week and with a look at The Concorde... Airport '79 from, you guessed it, 1979. It features an all-star cast of C-listers and some wonky special effects. Does it soar at Mach 2 or crash like a lead balloon? We also talk about what elements make for a disaster movie and Scott gives a quick review of Play It Again, Sam. Please drop us a line with questions, comments and criticism at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]

Yup, like all good disaster movies, this one has a bonkers cast. We just got back from a week at Walt Disney World, so we go through our Top 10 Disney rides. You do not want to miss that!

April 13, 2012 13:00 - 50 minutes - 69 MBThis week, we decide to spent some quality time with the Lisbon sisters with a review of Sofia Coppola's 1999 debut The Virgin Suicides. We did not see eye to eye on this one so tune in to hear us trying to politely insult each other's intelligence. Truth be told, Kat likely won. We have not see any movies lately so we get down to some TV talk - covering Community, The Office and even Smash. We'd love to hear from you so please drop us a line at [email protected] or 206-338-0793
Married With Clickers: Episode 67 - Panic In The Streets
April 09, 2012 01:53 - 47 minutes - 65.3 MBThis week we take to the streets of New Orleans with the 1950 film noir (?) thriller Panic In The Streets starring Richard Widmark and Jack Palance. After 62 years, does the movie smell as fresh as a stroll through the Garden District or like Bourbon Street at 6:00 AM? We also chat briefly about Scott's trip to The Final Four, The Other Woman, The Thing From Another World and The Descendants, and consider doing a month of disaster movies. We'd love to hear from you at 206-338-0793 or marri...
Married With Clickers: Episode 66 - Betrayed
March 28, 2012 01:53 - 44 minutes - 61.5 MBThis week, we travel back to the 1980s to learn a very important lesson: racism is bad. 1988's Betrayed is a treasure trove of corn fields, cold beer and mom jeans. Is it worth tracking down or should it remain forgotten? Tune in to find out. We also chat about John Carter and Kill the Irishman. Sned us an email to [email protected] or call us at 206-338-0793

Feedback is always welcome at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 64 - Logan's Run
March 12, 2012 15:07 - 51 minutes - 70.6 MBKat's choice this week is an old childhood favourite. High concept, socially minded, science fiction was all the rage in the 1970s, and Logan's Run played a large role in the trend. How does it hold up today? Tune in to find out. We explore the role that nostalgia plays in film appreciation. We also discuss techniques to defeat the evil robot known simply as Box. We'd love to hear from you, so please give us a call at 206-338-0793. If you can't stand the sound of your own voice (I know the ...
Married With Clickers: Episode 63 - Chinatown
March 05, 2012 02:58 - 58 minutes - 80.4 MBThis week, we try to forget Chinatown, but it proves to be quite difficult. Sure, countless books. essays and articles have been written about this movie but you really want to hear us talk about it, right? We also do a quick debrief on the Oscars and chat about Moneyball and The African Queen. We love your feedback - so call us at 206-338-0793 or write to [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 62 - Never Let Me Go
February 27, 2012 00:27 - 54 minutes - 74.6 MBWe had both read the book recently, so Kat thought Never Let Me Go would be a good choice for this week. The book was well loved, but the film certainly underperformed at the box office. Do some stories simply not translate well to the big screen? Tune in to find out. We also cover recent watches including The Narrow Margin, The Big Year, French Immersion, Footloose (2011), The Racket and Monte Walsh. we'd love to hear from you, so get in touch by email to [email protected] or ...
Married With Clickers: Episode 61 - The Battle of Algiers
February 16, 2012 03:14 - 41 minutes - 56.7 MBThis week, we try our best to heap sufficient praise on 1966's The Battle of Algiers. It is an impressive cinematic achievement and if you haven't seen it, tune in to hear us tell you all about why you need to check it out. We also share our thoughts on Drive, The Phantom Menace in 3-D and the George Cukor classic Holiday. This was, sadly, a feedback-free week (although one of you missed us by 30 minutes) - so please drop us a line at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 60 - Miller's Crossing
February 10, 2012 13:52 - 46 minutes - 64.2 MBA lot of period piece gangster films were released between 1987 and 1993, and one of them was Miller's Crossing, the 3rd outing by the Brothers Coen. Was it one of the best? Quick answer: Yes. It did not make much of an impact at the time, but still packs a punch today. Tune in to find out why. We also chat briefly about Layer Cake, X-Men: First Class and why Moms should not let their 4-year old daughters watch Planet of the Apes. Tune in to hear Kat try to blame Scott, even though he was 4 ...
Married With Clickers: Episode 59 - Bring It On
February 01, 2012 14:18 - 40 minutes - 56 MBThis week, we bring out the spirit fingers to discuss 2000's Bring It On. As far as guilty pleasures go, how does it measure up? We also take quick looks at the return of American Idol, Aguirre, the Wrath of God, Midnight in Paris and the 'you have to see it to believe it' early 80s Czech sci-fi/horror film Ferat Vampire. Yup, it's been that kind of week here at Casa Clickers. Give us a call at 206-338-09783 or via email to [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 58 - Jane Eyre (2011)
January 23, 2012 13:50 - 1 hour - 91.2 MBFor the second time in as many months, Kat picks a Fassbender driven film with this recent adaptation of Jane Eyre. Should Scott be worried about Kat's new Hollywood boyfriend? Probably. Can Cary Fukunaga's team bring something new to this tale of woe that has already been adapted for the small and big screens countless times? Tune in to find out. We also share our quick thoughts on 30 Minutes or Less, Our Idiot Brother, Violent Naples, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and The Trip. All this a...
Married With Clickers: Episode 57 - Dirty Harrython Pt. 2
January 16, 2012 13:28 - 1 hour - 101 MBThis week, we finish our stint partnering up with Harry Callahan with a trio of sequels: The Enforcer, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool. Does the law of diminishing returns hold true for this series, or does Clint Eastwood have a surprise or two up his sleeve? The TV season has returned with a vengeance, so we also take quick looks at The Firm (we've got a personal connection to the show) and The Bachelor Season 47. We've also dipped our toes into the cool, creepy waters of Twin Peaks, which ...
Married With Clickers: Episode 56 - Dirty Harrython Pt. 1
January 08, 2012 21:46 - 1 hour - 82.7 MBSo, we were going to cover Magnum Force this week but, one thing led to another, and we decided that a two-parter covering all 5 Dirty Harry films was in order. For this episode, we take a look at Dirty Harry and its follow-up Magnum Force. Do these two classics still bring the thrills? Tune in to find out. We aim for a balanced cinematic diet, so we also discuss One Day, Win Win, Beginners and Extract. The holdiays are a great time for giving the old DVD player a real workout. We're start...
Married With Clickers: Episode 55 - Our Top 10 Discoveries of the Year
January 03, 2012 15:25 - 54 minutes - 74.6 MBAs we may have mentioned from time to time (or all the time), we have two young children and that limits the number of times we can see new releases on the big screen. Stealing an idea from our good friend Rupert of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks blog, we decided to create lists of the top 10 films we saw for the first time in 2011. We hit nearly ever genres and our lists include films from as far back as 1935 and as recent as 2008. We do end up discussing some of our favourites from 2011 and resp...
Married With Clickers: Episode 54 - Romeo and Juliet
December 28, 2011 02:10 - 49 minutes - 67.7 MBWe get all romantic this week, with Kat's pick of Franco Zeffirelli's adaptation of Romeo and Juliet from 1968. Does a rose by any other name truly smell as sweet? In other words, is the movie any good? We also chat about Horrible Bosses and Captain America: The First Avenger. Yup, we try try to keep it versatile here at MWC. We would love to hear from you at [email protected] or 206-338-0793.
Married With Clickers: Episode 53 - The Professionals
December 21, 2011 01:48 - 51 minutes - 70.2 MBIt's Scott's choice this week, so he took the show back out west with 1966's The Professionals. If you have not heard of this film, you are in for a treat as it features a great script and an amazing cast which includes Lee Marvin, Jack Palance and Woody Strode. We also chat about The Crow, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, the Coen Brothers' True Grit and the Grace Kelly Exhibit at the Bell Light Box here at TIFF HQ. We'd love to hear from you, so get in touch with us at 206-338-079...
Married With Clickers: Episode 52 - Hunger
December 13, 2011 01:33 - 38 minutes - 62.2 MBThe holidays are just around the corner, so why not join us for a chat about an unbelievably depressing film set in fetid prison cells in Northern Ireland? All kidding aside, with all of the buzz surrounding Michael Fassbender these days, it seemed like the perfect time to check out Hunger from 2008. We share our thoughts on The Polar Express and Bad Santa (no, we didn't watch them as a double bill). We'd love to hear from you, so drop us a line at [email protected] or 206-338-0...
Married With Clickers: Episode 51 - The Big Clock
December 03, 2011 13:50 - 46 minutes - 74.9 MBThis week, we return to the world of film noir (or is it noir light? Film Gris?) with a review of 1948's The Big Clock starring Charles Laughton and Ray Milland. Have the passing been harsh on this film, or can it still entertain? Who really needs a $600,000 clock? Did Ray Milland really want to go on vacation with his family? Is that the most disgusting moustache in cinema history? We also tackle two recent watches: Source Code (2011) and Class (1983) and discuss a very special screening f...
Married With Clickers: Episode 50 - Battle Royale
November 24, 2011 16:14 - 53 minutes - 73.2 MBWe celebrate our 50th show with one helluva fun movie, 2000's Battle Royale. We know, we know - you've all seen it, but it was new to us. Did it live up to the hype? Is the Hunger Games a rip off? Should Scott be concerned about Kat's newfound love for ultra-violent films? We answer these questions and more. We also share our thoughts on Bridesmaids, The X Factor, Pan Am and deal with some much appreciated feedback. You can contact us ats 206-338-0793 or [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 49 - Southern Comfort
November 17, 2011 18:39 - 45 minutes - 61.8 MBThis week, our plans for a relaxing afternoon on the bayou went south with Walter Hill's 1981 film Southern Comfort. We love misnomer film titles here in the Clickers household. We also love good music, crawfish and films with nonstop tension, so we were well served by Uncle Walt. We also take quick looks at The Trouble With Harry, Crazy Stupid Love and Son of Frankenstein. Next week is our 50th episode and we love to hear from you at 206-338-0793 or send emails to marriedwithclickers@gmai...
Married With Clickers: Episode 48 - Water for Elephants
November 09, 2011 21:19 - 35 minutes - 48.5 MBAfter a month of horror, we did a complete 180 and watched Water for Elephants. It is our first ever review of a 'new' movie. Kat had read and enjoyed the book, so was anxious to see how it had been adapted for the screen. Scott is co-captain of the Toronto chapter of Team Edward. Did we like the movie? Tune in to find out. We also ramble through some recent watches: The Killers (1946), No Strings Attached and Airplane II: the Sequel. Feed back to [email protected] or 206-338-0793
Married With Clickers: Episode 47 - Blood on Satan's Claw
October 31, 2011 12:15 - 25 minutes - 34.8 MBThe final installment of our inaugural (and final?) Four Week of Shrieks comes to us courtesy of good friend of the show, Vishnu. Blood on Satan's Claw is unlike anything else we've watched this month, but is that a good thing or a bad thing? This tale involves a group of sinister teenagers, helping Satan rebuild himself by collecting body parts from locals. Wasn't that also the plot from The Twelfth Night? Now that we're at the end of October, we'd love to hear what you thought of our att...
Married With Clickers: Episode 46 - Friday the 13th (1980)
October 29, 2011 11:57 - 27 minutes - 43.8 MBWe are nearing the end of October, and that means that Four Weeks of Shrieks is also coming to an end. Kat decided that it was time to go old school slasher and have us visit Camp Crystal Lake with the original Friday the 13th. It had been a very long time since either of us had seen it. So long, in fact, that Kat had pretty much forgotten the identity of the killer. That was cool, as it was as if we were watching it with fresh eyes. Your feedback is always welcome, so please send of an ema...
Married With Clickers: Episode 45 - Bride of Frankenstein
October 25, 2011 13:21 - 23 minutes - 37.6 MBFor this installment of Four Weeks of Shrieks we go waaaaay back to 1935 to check out Bride of Frankenstein directed by James Whale. The sets are gorgeous, the make-up is glorious and don't get us started on that Dr. Pretorius! Does this universally (get it?) lauded film still have a strong impact nearly 80 years after its release? Tune in to find out. Feedback keeps us happy, so please drop us a line at [email protected] or 206-338-0793
Married With Clickers: Episode 44 - Children of the Corn
October 24, 2011 16:07 - 21 minutes - 29.2 MBKat and Scott are back together and ready to continue the Four Weeks of Shrieks with a review of Children of the Corn from 1984. It is based on a Stephen King short story and stars Sarah Connor and that guy from Thirtysomething. Kat picked it to see if Malachi and Isaac still have the ability to scare us all these years later? Are these kids really subsisting on corn? Who told Linda Hamilton that those shorts fit? We explore these and other issues, so tune in! Send in your feedback to marri...
Married With Clickers: Episode 43 - The Crazies (2010)
October 19, 2011 16:35 - 29 minutes - 41 MBFour Weeks of Shrieks continues with a sojourn into the modern era with a review of The Crazies. In an attempt to make amends for some earlier choices that were less than horrific, Scott picked this remake of George Romero's early 70s film about a small town dealing with a rather nasty virus and an even nastier government. Was it crazy enough to work? Is Timothy Olyphant actually in law enforcement? Due to some travel and overall 'out of towness', we'll be taking a break for a handful of day...
Married With Clickers: Episode 42 - The Changeling
October 17, 2011 18:08 - 22 minutes - 30.7 MBFor this episode, we sat down to watch this creepy little film about bouncing balls and broken windows. After all these years, does it still get under Scott's skin? It was Kat's first time seeing it - did she find it haunting or hokey? Tune in to find out. It's our shortest show ever, so if you ever wanted to take us for a test drive, this is the time! We'd love to hear from you at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 41 - Frenzy
October 14, 2011 19:26 - 23 minutes - 32.9 MBScott was under the impression that Frenzy was a true horror movie that it would fit nicely into the Four Weeks of Shrieks. Horror? Not so much, but still pretty thrilling and stylish. Fear not, Kat will get us back on track next time but for now tune in for a look at Hitchcock's penultimate film. Gentlemen are expected to wear jacket and tie. We'd love a feedback frenzy, so get in touch with us at 206-338-0793 or [email protected]
Married With Clickers: Episode 40 - The Haunting
October 13, 2011 12:39 - 30 minutes - 41.4 MBWe continue October's 4 Weeks of Shrieks with 1963's The Haunting, a notable entry in the Old Dark House genre directed by the versatile Robert Wise. Did we find it haunting or were we left wanting? There's only one way to find out - have a listen. We were also able to tackle some feedback in this episode. We'd love to hear from you, so drop us a line at [email protected] or 206-338-0793.
Married With Clickers: Episode 39 - Wolfen
October 11, 2011 01:25 - 21 minutes - 29.8 MBFour Weeks of Shrieks continues with 1981's often forgotten supernatural wolf-themed film, Wolfen. There's a lot going on here, Albert Finney has great hair and NYC looks wonderfully filthy. All of that being said, does it all add up? We'd love to hear from you, so send us an email to [email protected] or call us at 206-338-0793.
Married With Clickers: Episode 38 - Suspiria
October 05, 2011 18:38 - 28 minutes - 39.5 MBOur 1st Annual Four Weeks of Shrieks kicks off with a look at Dario Agento's 1977 classic Suspiria. Kat let out a Hall of Fame shriek during our screening and provides an instant replay during our recording session. We will be cranking out the horror reviews at a pretty good clip this month, but don't let that stop you from sending us feedback to [email protected] or 2060338-0793
Married With Clickers: Episode 37 - The Lady From Shanghai
October 03, 2011 17:59 - 41 minutes - 57 MBThis week, we reenter the world of film noir with a review of Orson Welles' 1947 The Lady From Shanghai. It is a film filled with crazy characters and and an even crazier murder plot. Did it leave us befuddled or bedazzled? Tune in to find out. We also dip our toes into the new television season with our thoughts on Pan Am, Ringer, The Playboy Club and even X-Factor. The feedback we received this week made us giddy with joy, so please keep it up good people, by emailing us at marriedwithclic...
Married With Clickers: Episode 36 - TIFF Report
September 28, 2011 01:31 - 38 minutes - 61.8 MBWe step outside our regular format this week, to review the films we saw at this year's Toronto International Film Festival. We begin our chat with the French film Twiggy, a intimate portrait of a pregnant 19 year old. We follow that up with a bold and visually stunning adaptation of Wuthering Heights. We cap it all off with some Killer Joe, a black comedy from William Friedkin that pulls no punches. Actually, quite a few people get punched, and punched hard. We'd love to hear your thoughts,...
Married With Clickers: Episode 35 - Masters of the Universe
September 23, 2011 02:15 - 48 minutes - 76.9 MBThis week, we take another trip in the Clickers Time Machine (why is the dial always set to the 80s?) to take in Masters of the Universe. Neither of us had ever managed to see it before, so we werent enitrely sure what to expect. Did it meet our fairly low expectations? Tune in to find out. We also discuss Samuel Fuller's Naked Kiss and The Goods: Live Hard Sell Hard. We also get into some great feedback, but it left us waning more, so please drop us a line at [email protected] o...
Married With Clickers: Episode 34 - To Live and Die in L.A.
September 14, 2011 01:34 - 48 minutes - 78.5 MBThis week, Kat and I take a break from September craziness to discuss William Friedkin's 1985 neo-noir To Live and Die in L.A. It is a tale of tight pants and two dollar bills. It has a fantastic cast and an even better car chase, but is that enough for the two of us? We also take a quick look at Cedar Rapids, Scorpio (1973), The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977), Dark City (1950) and John Carpenter's The Thing. Share your thoughts with us by sending feedback to [email protected] or 2...
Married With Clickers: Episode 33 - Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
September 02, 2011 01:08 - 40 minutes - 56 MBKat had been wanting to see a Marilyn Monroe film, so this week we watched Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), courtesy of Netflix Canada. Does Howard Hawks' legendary musical comedy still deliver nearly 60 years later? Did we even know it was a musical? Before you tune in, you need to ask yourself one question. Am I Team Monroe or Team Russell? Scott also discusses his recent viewing of The Made Me a Criminal (1939) and we provide a much anticipated Bachelor Pad 2 update. Yes, we are shameless...
Married With Clickers: Episode 32 - Swimfan
August 25, 2011 19:37 - 44 minutes - 61.6 MBThe days are getting shorter, the nights are cooler and the temperature of the lake is downright heart-stopping. It has become apparent that summer is nearly over. This week, we're recorded a mid-vacation show from the shores of Ahmic Lake and feature a review of Scott's final Cruel Summer selection, 2002's Swimfan. Did it take our breath away or did we need to hold our noses before taking the plunge? We also discuss the first handful of episodes of Season 1 of The Tudors and provide a highl...
Married With Clickers: Episode 31- Death Wish
August 18, 2011 21:09 - 46 minutes - 42.4 MBThis week, we hopped into the Clickers family car (it's a souped up DeLorean) and headed back to 1974. We've returned with a review of Death Wish starring Charles Bronson. Kat had never seen it and it had been years, if not decades, for Scott. Does it live up to its reputation? Does Bronson still have the touch? Was that Corky St. Clair? To keep our street cred low, we also watched Bride Wars (2009), proving that Netflix giveth and Netflix taketh away. Feedback is always welcome, so please w...
Married With Clickers: Episode 30 - La Belle et la Bête
August 12, 2011 02:52 - 36 minutes - 49.5 MBWe class things up this week with a review of a highly regarded classic; Jean Cocteau’s La Belle et La Bête from 1946. Does its beauty hold up after 65 years, or is it downright beastly? On a less classy note, we also discuss the premiere of Bachelor Pad II, as we cannot deny the siren song of this guilty pleasure.
