1982 - Poltergeist

July 28, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 90.2 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Poltergeist Can Poltergeist scare its way into being 1982's Movie of the Year? Nothing encapsulates the 1980s mindset quite like the horror of buying a huge house only to have it turn out that there is something completely wrong with it. Or maybe it’s about the fundamental horror of realizing that every acre of land in this entire land must be haunted many times over, what with the manifold sins of this country.  But also it's a rip-roaring good time and a special...

1982 - Night Shift

July 21, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 67 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Night Shift Should Night Shift have been included in our 1982 bracket? Night Shift imagines a New York where morgues are always empty, and thus their employees are free to run other "small businesses" out of them. We've got Henry Winkler; we've got Shelley Long; we've got Michael Keaton, and we've got them in various combinations across various scenes. The boys couldn't quite come to an agreement on this movie as a whole, but one thing we were absolutely sure of is...

1982 - Fitzcarraldo

July 14, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 86.9 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Fitzcarraldo Does Fitzcarraldo have what it takes to get over the hump and into the heights of 1982's Movie of the Year? With apologies to Kate Bush, running up that hill is nothing compared to what this movie brings to audiences. Running up a hill? Sure, that sounds very tiring and like a total waste of time, but dragging a big-h boat up a hill? That's even more tiring, and it is many times more a waste of time; however, it is also very dangerous. But on top of th...

1982 - Fast Times at Ridgemont High

July 07, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 92.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Fast Times at Ridgemont High Can Fast Times at Ridgemont High show us it has enough to be 1982's Movie of the Year? Fast Times at Ridgemont High is a movie about the most important thing: scoring. There is simply nothing more important than hooking up with the hot person of your choosing and celebrating the joy and love of your bodies together, especially when you are an appropriate age. That brings me to my next two points: 1.) here's a big hot cup of coffee that ...

1982 - GenreBlast

June 30, 2022 12:00 - 43 minutes - 40.1 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 GenreBlast What 1982 genre films almost had enough to be considered for Movie of the Year? Genres, they make up the bulk at the movies lefty Hollywood pumps out to us year after year, but we here at Pop Filter have no time for anything that is not a serious, pinky-in-the-air drama. However, we know how upsetting it is to simply dispense with action, romance, family, or comedies, just to name a few, and so we've brought this very special show to you to make sure tha...

1982 - E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial

June 23, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 76.3 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial Can E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial "phone home" enough to be 1982's Movie of the Year? Since this movie first came out, people have wondered what E.T. is short for? It may be a little "inside baseball," but E.T. is short because of his stubby little legs. Were they longer, then so too would E.T. be longer. True, his neck does get pretty long. I'm not totally sure what the deal with that is. But dude's legs are so short that he can hardly move...

1982 - Das Boot

June 16, 2022 12:00 - 56 minutes - 51.9 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Das Boot Das Das Boot have what it takes to be 1982's Movie of the Year? This Week's movie, Das Boot, is the kinda movie you may Nazi coming. A lot is going on beneath the surface in this one, but you can't escape the fact that everyone in this movie is a Nazi. But if you prick a Nazi, will they not bleed? Yes, they will. Interesting. If you punch them, will they not bleed? Hmmmm. What if you kick them in the face? I mean, they'd for sure bleed, right? OK, what if...

1982 - Blade Runner

June 09, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 83.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Blade Runner Does Blade Runner have what it takes to be 1982's Movie of the Year? Is Blade Runner the best movie ever made? Perhaps. It is certainly one that we are very excited to talk about. Is it the most important movie ever made? Again, maybe. These are really the kinds of questions we address in the show itself, so if you are asking them, you should just be listening. But maybe it's still downloading and you need something to read, so here goes. Yes, we will ...

1982 - 48HRS.

June 02, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 77.5 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 48Hrs. Does 48Hrs. have what it takes to be 1982's Movie of the Year? The first film we talk about in the 1982 season is 48Hrs, and in many ways it is the perfect movie to get us going on the new season. In the late 70's, a couple of dudes had a dream: what if a white dude and a Black dude teamed up together to solve a crime. The plan was set, and Clint Eastwood and Richard Pryor were approached to star. Eventually Eastwood bowed out and Pryor became too big of a s...

1982 - The Elite Eight Are Chosen

May 25, 2022 12:00 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 The Elite Eight Are Chosen It's the second part of the intro to 1982 season of Movie of the Year! It's second part of the intro to 1982 season, and by the time this episode is done filling your ears, you'll know the eight movies that will make up our 1982 season! Who will make it to the Elite Eight? Does E.T. have a chance, or should he phone home to get picked up? Maybe Poltergeist will haunt our Elite Eight. Perhaps we'll put Tron in the final eight, but I bet no...

1982 - Let's Get This Party Started

May 19, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 64.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Let's Get This Party Started It's the intro to 1982 season of Movie of the Year! It's time to start a new season of Movie of the Year, and what better year to turn our attention to than 1982? According to my calendar, that was 40 years ago, but -- hang on -- if that's true then that would mean I'm...uh-oh....My god: I've become this super-old guy with a sour disposition and a sore knee. But it could be argued that more than just the health of my joints has deterior...

1982 - Horror Movie Preview

May 12, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 57.3 MB

Movie of the Year: 1982 Horror Sneak Preview Before the 1982 season kicks off, the Taste Buds sit down and discuss all of the horror movies that came out that year! It can be difficult for horror movies to make the Elite 8 in each season of Movie of the Year, and get their own episode that focuses on them. So, for the first time ever, Mike and Ryan are doing a preview show to discuss all of 1982's horror movies before they dive into the bracket. But because they are clearly unqualified to...

1991 - The Finale, Part II

May 05, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 70 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 We Have a Winner By the end of this episode we will all know the 1991 Movie of the Year! Our 1991 season is finally coming to an end. We have watched all the movies, casted all the pods, tallied all the votes -- now it is time to let the people know the results. The world will never be the same after this announcement. We know that better than anyone, but we have to end this season of the podcast. Just because it is called Movie of the Year, doesn't mean that the s...

1991 - The Finale, Part 1

April 28, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 79.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 The Beginning of the End It's the beginning of the End for the 1991 season! Ah, the end of things--it's always a little melancholy. But really this is just the beginning of the end of our 1991 season. Luckily, we still have the whole end in front of us. Sure, we used up all the middle, and the beginning is a distant, hazy memory. Yes, the whole end to go. By the end of this beginning, we'll have gone from our top eight movies to a final four of phenomenal films. Wi...

1991 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze (Bonus Episode)

April 21, 2022 12:00 - 56 minutes - 51.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Bonus Episode - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze Just because Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze can't win Movie of the Year doesn't mean it can't win your love Ooze. The 1990s were full of it, and no year more chocker-block than 1991. You'd open your locker: ooze. You'd check what mom packed for lunch: ooze. You'd do a flawless dance for your peers: ooze and ahhs. But everyone had the same question when it came to ooze — w...

1991 - My Girl (Bonus Episode)

April 14, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 55.6 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Bonus Episode - My Girl Just because My Girl can't win Movie of the Year doesn't mean it can't change your life We tackle yet another of 1991's iconic movies and we do it with a little help from our friends Emily, from I Drink Your Podcast, and Nate, from A Vague Idea (and also Delaware). They both watched the movie and they both filled out the requisite paperwork, so now they're on the show. It could be you, but will it be? Howard Zieff’s My Girl is the story of ...

1991 - Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (Bonus Episode)

April 07, 2022 12:00 - 53 minutes - 48.6 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Bonus Episode - Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Just because Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves can't win Movie of the Year doesn't mean it can't change your life Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is about stealing. At its heart, it explores the deep impulses inside each of us to throw off the trappings of the civilized world and give in to the desire to take what isn't ours, but that which should also not belong to the elites who don't need it, can't find any use for it, but...

1991 - The Last Boy Scout (Bonus Episode)

March 31, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 58.2 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Bonus Episode - The Last Boy Scout Just because The Last Boy Scout can't win Movie of the Year doesn't mean it can't change you life? In 1991 this country still knew how to make movies. What does every movie need? That's right: Bruce Willis. We got B-Willz in this one, so that's a check. Also, the perfect movie is gonna need a guy falling through the spinning blades of a helicopter. Skadoosh, that's a check. Spoiler alert on that last point, obviously, but it is st...

1991 - Thelma and Louise

March 24, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 82.8 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Thelma and Louise Will Thelma and Louise shoot and drive its way to our 1991 Movie of the Year? Ridley Scott’s Thelma and Louise has a tough act to follow in last week’s A Brighter Summer Day. And, stylistically, the two movies couldn’t be more different, but in many ways Thelma and Louise tackles much of the same subject matter: male dominance of women, male violence against women, and an air of systemic disinterest—if not out right antagonism—to the plight of wom...

1991 - Terminator 2: Judgement Day

March 17, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 85.6 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Terminator 2: Judgement Day Will The Terminator 2: Judgement Day shoot and morph its way to the 1991 Movie of the Year? You’re ten years old and you are about to see your first R-rated movie. You have come out of the wet-garbage heat of the New York summer into the perfectly chilled, popcorn-infused air of the theater. You sit alone — you arrived too late to get seats with your mom — but you don’t care because the Queens crowd has already cohered into one mass of e...

Best of the Year: 2021 - Movie of the Year

March 10, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 75.9 MB

Best of the Year: 2021 Movie of the Year   What movie will win 2021 Movie of the Year? We have come to the end of the 2021 shows. We have picked the best of music, the best of television, and the best of literature. No, we didn't read enough books to talk about literature, but if we did you can guarantee we'd make a bracky out of those suckers and set them to fighting. But, in all seriousness, we still have the most important element of pop culture to discuss: the movies. Films, talking...

Best of the Year: 2021 - TV Drama of the Year

March 03, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 89.9 MB

Best of the Year: 2021  TV Drama of the Year What drama will win 2021 TV Drama of the Year? Drama: We're meant to save it for our mommas. But that isn't always possible because we're big kids who live in our own homes with our hot spouses. So instead, we have to face the dramas ourselves. However, the Taste Budz are not brave or competent, so we called the bravest and most competent people we know -- Katelynn and Books from Unnatural 20s. Katelynn is brave because she will approach squirr...

Best of 2021: TV Comedy of the Year

February 24, 2022 23:00 - 1 hour - 42.8 MB

Best of the Year: 2021 2021 TV Comedy of the Year What comedy will win 2021 TV Comedy of the Year? Let's face it: making your way in the world today takes everything you got. I just thought of that right now, unprompted, but it occurs to me how true it is. And that's why taking a break from all your worries sure would help a lot. I ask you this now and I want a serious answer: Wouldn't you like to getaway? TV comedy feels like a place where everyone knows your name. But what's more: they...

Best of 2021: Century of the Year

February 19, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 54.7 MB

Best of the Year: 2021 2021 Century of the Year Are you prepared for the madness of Century of the Year? People ask us all the time: What is Century of the Year? And that is a really good question. Century of the Year is where we take the 100 biggest pop-culture stories of the year and talk about each for one minute. Oh, we also take a shot of beer each minute. We cover the highs and lows of the most talked-about stories of 2021. Remember Bean Dad? That happened in 2021! What a fun thing ...

Best of 2021 Album of the Year

February 10, 2022 20:00 - 1 hour - 49.6 MB

Best of the Year: 2021 Album of the Year Which album of 2021 will be our Album of the Year? What can you say about the music of 2021? The songs were epic, shifting, exploratory, and raw with artists like Tyler, The Creator giving us something so new that it was almost a challenge. Newcomer Olivia Rodrigo plumbed the depths of heartbreak while Japanese Breakfast explored the heights of pure joy.  Artists like Arlo Parks and Little Simz dropped albums that were diaries, close, and achingly ...

Best of 2021: Mix Tape

February 03, 2022 14:00 - 1 hour - 51.9 MB

Best of the Year: 2021 Mix Tape Will our 2021 mix tape change how music is appreciated? Scientists will refer to 2021 as the Great Time of Music and Song. Experts agree bands like Sleigh Bells and Low have changed everything for rock, while rap and hip-hop took quantum leaps forward with amazing albums from Tyler, The Creator, Little Simz, and Arlo Parks. Can we capture this magical time in music through only the power of mix tape? Listen now and see for yourself! Mix tapes are the singl...

Best of 2021 - Oscar Draft

February 02, 2022 04:00 - 1 hour - 42.5 MB

Movie of the Year: Best of 2021 Oscar Draft Which films will get the most 2021 Oscar nominations? The Oscars. When it comes to little statues handed to movie stars, the absolute top of the table. 2021 had movies galore, and many of them were terrific. But will the academy know which movies to award? Their record on this is spotty at best and disastrous at worst, leading to a feeling that ultimately the Oscars don't even matter anymore. Let us be clear, this is a mostly correct position he...

Best of 2021 Preview Show - Television

January 27, 2022 21:00 - 1 hour - 62.3 MB

Movie of the Year: Best of 2021 Preview Show - Television Greg and Mackenna lead the Taste Buds in a battle of the Sweet 16 Dramas and Comedies...there can only be 8! In part two of the preview show that kicks it all off, 8 great television dramas, and 8 hilarious comedies, will lose their chance to be named the PopFilter Best of the Year!

January 20, 2022 20:00 - 1 hour - 68 MB

Movie of the Year: Best of 2021 Preview Show Albums and Movies Which are the best 2021 albums and movies? You judge a year in a lot of ways: Who was famous? Who was hot? Who was on their way up? And what was going on with that unending pandemic? Yes! All these questions are the standard ones you ask about any year; however, these questions won't give us the true nature of that year--the warp and the weave of the every day, the "stuff" of life that gave the days their unique illumination. ...

1991 - State of the Franchise

January 14, 2022 01:00 - 29 minutes - 20.2 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 State of the Franchise How impactful were 1991 movie franchises? Hit movie franchises are literally all this country has left. Is that hyperbolic? Let me check. No. No, it isn't.  Everything else is gone. In this vast wasteland, there is only one thing of value left: blockbuster movie franchises. But was it always this way? Scientists have told us the answer, and it is a resounding "nah, not so much." In the early nineties, there were film franchises but they they...

1991 - Point Break (Bonus Episode)

January 07, 2022 00:00 - 46 minutes - 31.8 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Point Break (Bonus Episode)  Does Point Break have what it takes to shame the 1991 Movie of the Year? Movies of the early 90’s could be about either extreme sports OR bank robbery. Point Break invites us to imagine a magical world where those streams cross and combine to give us one PERFECT movie. That's right. We think this is one of the best movies of all time, and we aren't afraid to gush about it. Keanu Reeves is Johnny Utah, fresh-faced FBI agent and one-time...

1991 - Mix Tape

December 31, 2021 04:00 - 50 minutes - 34.9 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Mix Tape Will our 1991 mixtape change how music is appreciated? Scientists still refer to 1991 as the Great Time of Music and Song. Experts agree bands like Nirvana changed everything for rock, while rap and hip-hop took quantum leaps forward. Can we capture this magical time in music through only the power of mixtape? Listen now and see for yourself! Mixtapes are the single greatest invention in the history of humanity and, frankly, it is not very close. But each...

1991- The Silence of the Lambs

December 23, 2021 19:00 - 1 hour - 64.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 The Silence of the Lambs Will The Silence of the Lambs thrill and chill its way to the 1991 Movie of the Year? The Silence of the Lambs (1991) was the third film in Academy history to win the "Big Five" Academy Awards for producing, directing, acting, and screenwriting following It Happened One Night (1934) and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975). So we're dealing with Hollywood divinity here. Despite--or maybe because of??--its gory subject matter, it enjoyed s...

1991 - JFK (Bonus Episode)

December 16, 2021 23:00 - 51 minutes - 35.7 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 JFK Will JFK shame the 1991 Movie of the Year? In many ways 1991 gave us our most normal, run-of-the-mill, norm core movies. Well, I am here to say thank gosh for the bonus shows because here we are with JFK—half weird YouTube video essay, half historian's fever dream, and every bit of three freaking hours. Not normal, no, and certainly not running any mills. But still full of so many things to talk about and compelling mysteries to attempt to unravel.  JFK invite...

1991 - Beauty and the Beast

December 09, 2021 23:00 - 1 hour - 64.8 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Beauty and the Beast Will Beauty and the Beast be the 1991 Movie of the Year? Beauty and the Beast is the story of...uh...I mean is there ANY reason to give a recap of this movie? We all know what it is about, we all have seen it probably a million times, and we all know how good it is. But do you though? When was the last time you REALLY watched it? This movie is amazing in just about every way a movie can be. It also has many, apparent, problematic elements, whic...

1991 - GenreBlast

December 03, 2021 09:00 - 43 minutes - 30.1 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 GenreBlast 1991 GenreBlast is here to save all the genre films we forgot about? Genre films get a really bad wrap. Why should a perfect comedy, sci fi film, or romantic flick get automatically consigned to the ash heap of any of your various Blocksbuster Video. Maybe you're a young, hip guy who knows a surprising amount about the action/sci fi masterpiece Highlander 2: The Quickening, but because that is a genre flick, all of your sweet knowledge is worth less than...

1991 - Boyz n the Hood

November 26, 2021 20:00 - 1 hour - 67.7 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Boyz n the Hood Will Boyz n the Hood be the 1991 Movie of the Year? This week the Taste Buds tackle John Singleton's Boyz n the Hood, film full of debuts, nuance, tragedy, and the natural rhythms of real life. In a way, it bears more in common with the films of 1975. It was a big movie in 1991--the year's most profitable, in fact--but does it have what it takes to be 1991's Movie of the Year? Boyz n the Hood is a story about the inner city violence of the 90s. Som...

1991 - Barton Fink

November 19, 2021 01:00 - 1 hour - 66.6 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Barton Fink Can Barton Fink write his way to the 1991 Movie of the Year? The Tastebuds have quite an odd movie on our hands with this one. Barton Fink is our first Coen Brothers' movie, but it is hardly the typical Co-Bro fair. Barton Fink is a young, successful playwright on Broadway before he is lured/kinda coerced to going to Hollywood. And the city of dreams quickly becomes the city of nightmares as Barton is plagued by writer’s block, manic Hollywood execs, a ...

1991 - The Addams Family

November 11, 2021 19:00 - 1 hour - 55.3 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 The Addams Family Can The Addams Family spook and kook their way to the 1991 Movie of the Year? They do what they want to do. Say what they want to say. Live how they want to live. Play how they want to play. Dance how they want to dance. And even kick and then slap a friend. Yes, I am speaking of the Addams family, that spooky bunch who taught us that love and raw sexual energy truly conquer all. But will this movie conquer our bracket? We loved it as kids, and es...

1991 - Intro, Part II

November 04, 2021 23:00 - 27 minutes - 19.1 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 Premiere Part 2 Which of these 1991 movies will be the Movie of the Year? We are back with even more bracket to help us pick the movies for the 1991 season of Movie of the Year! Silence of the Lambs, Boyz n the Hood, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Hook -- some of these may move on, some may be voted out, but all will be shouted about. Because this isn't like naming your kid: it's a big decision. (That's just an example.) You can't just think of your favorite comic ...

1991 - A New Season Begins

October 29, 2021 08:00 - 1 hour - 56.8 MB

Movie of the Year: 1991 A New Season Begins Movie of the Year begins the long journey of picking the 1991 Movie of the Year! 1991 is amazing because that is when everyone everywhere was 10-years-old and the world was still something to be excited about. Sure, it was a changing place, but it was changing for the better. We had won the cold war and our way of life emerged victorious and unchallenged. And oh were there movies! Movies about how if robots were going to try to kill us, they mig...

1975 - A Winner Declared

October 25, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 68.6 MB

Movie of the Year: 1975 A Winner Declared Movie of the Year declares 1975's Movie of the Year! It all comes down to this. We started with the top sixty-four movies of 1975, and we whittled them down to the final four in this episode, where we decide on the 1975 winner. Dog Day Afternoon, Mirror, Jaws, and One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest: Each of these legendary movies is almost bigger than film itself. Every one of them is in the pantheon of filmic gods. However, there can be only one Movi...

1975 - The Penultimate Episode

October 14, 2021 18:00 - 1 hour - 44.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1975 The Penultimate Episode Movie of the Year begins the process of picking 1975's Movie of the Year! Our finales are so big, so bombastic, so utterly and completely over-the-top that we don't do you the disservice of trying to cram it all into just one episode. This isn't amateur hour. We are not jerks. Instead, like the (unpaid) pros we are, we set our sights on narrowing the field in this episode--from the 8 movies we watched and discussed this season, down to the s...

1975 Bonus - Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom

October 13, 2021 20:00 - 1 hour - 42.4 MB

Movie of the Year: 1975 Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom The Taste Buds end the season with the most bonus of all bonus episodes, Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom! It is time. They have watched dozens of films for the 1975 season, but there was one that they couldn't avoid. First, Mike and Ryan are tasked with finding someone who will do the show with them, and the only person who would say yes was Mackenna from Unnatural 20's.
