I am pretty sure we have brought this movie up in a few episodes prior, because (some of us) were really excited to see this! Some of us have strong feelings. Some of us have some big issues. We talk about a lot here. Is this actually a movie? Do we care about this if the story isn't finished and does that matter? What's up with the man-spider? Do we like the lamentation cries? We are all ...

HALLOWEEN SERIES: Signs (2002)
October 25, 2021 07:11 - 1 hour - 104 MBFeatured Guest: JP Signs. You see them every day. But are they actually signs? Or just coincidences? Judging by everyone else's driving, most people definitely think signs are just coincidences. Remember when M. Night Shamalayan was a director that people cared about? If so, then you probably remember this movie. This one runs deep for all of us, and in very different ways. We talk a lot about growing up with this movie. We also talk a lot about whether its holds up now that we a...

August 30, 2021 23:04 - 1 hour - 106 MBFor our NEW RELEASE episode for the month of August, we are reviewing THE GREEN KNIGHT which came out in the last weekend of July! Don't ask, we didn't pick the date it came out, we only knew we had to do it. This episode is a first for us, as we all felt very strongly about how to read and interpret the events in this strange retelling of the classic Arthurian legend. We felt so strongly, we even end up shouting, pounding, and generally wrecking the studio. What can we say: great ar...

It blew our socks off when we saw it in theaters, and now 2 years later, it still has the power to awe us.

Is Rian Johnson one of the most truly gifted filmmakers working today? We answer all these...

LET FREEDOM RING! Kidding aside, we hope you enjoy this conversation! It was a blast to have and we did enjoy the movie, despite having some res...

Come hear if we think it's a Dad movie; do we think it works as a good detective movie? Is Marge Gunderson the best person...

The last two, On Stranger Tides and Dead Men Tell No Tales, are roundly drubbed here. Why two movies in one episode, ya might ask? Well, because these movies are terrible.

May 31, 2021 07:07 - 1 hour - 117 MBGUEST: Dom! It's a NEW RELEASE! And, it is Army of the Dead, now available on Netflix everywhere! It's a zombie-heist-action-thriller. Sort of. We disagree maybe with every single one of those descriptions of this movie. Also, is it good? Did we have any fun at all? Who is Zack Snyder really? Why does he make this kind of movie and are dad's his chief demographic? We talk about all of that and more including all of our top 3 ZOMBIE MOVIES! On a bittersweet note, Dom is leaving th...

May 03, 2021 07:01 - 1 hour - 97.1 MBThe Academy Awards came and went last week and even though it drew less viewers than in many years past, NYFM was excited for it! Jesse sits this one out, and instead Dom comes in (from the Baby Driver episode) to weigh in on the wins and losses of the evening. The Oscars are a big deal for us as a podcast, and as movie lovers in general. They serve as an important cultural standard but even still, we know even more than ever that the importance of the Oscars is in doubt. Where will the...

This is a classic episode from us. We got cast and crew, we got favorite scenes, we got some broader societal context ...
