So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 22 - Savannah Smiles

September 30, 2010 07:29 - 29 minutes - 27.5 MB

How obscure can we really go? How about a 1982 kids film about a precocious little rich girl who's inadvertently kidnapped by a pair of bumbling convicts? Savannah Smiles, anyone? No? The movie's up on You Tube for your viewing...pleasure? For this episode, we even have a very special guest who just so happens to be a blood relative...Justin's mom. So his movie obsession can be partly attributed to her. We all three discuss the reason why this peculiar film was chosen, our varying love for Al...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 21 - Devil/The Last Exorcism

September 23, 2010 05:35 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MB

It's a HELL of a good time this week as J&K schlep an hour-and a-half away to the Vineland Drive-In south of L.A. for a scary movie double feature: DEVIL and THE LAST EXORCISM! (And we use the term "scary" loosely.) You wanna know what's really scary? JELLY-COVERED TOAST FALLING JELLY SIDE DOWN. El Diablo is near!! And then there's the whole Exorcism movie... Time to git us some religion! Not to be confused with the original kid exorcism flick starring Linda Blair, or the later one with...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 20 - Poltergeist

September 15, 2010 17:37 - 37 minutes - 34.3 MB

For episode 20, we go totally freaky deaky and Krissy watches POLTERGEIST (1982) for the very first time. How did she manage to miss this horror classic for 27 years? Especially since she lived 10 minutes away from the actual haunted house in the movie! Oh well. That's why this podcast exists. We discuss the infamous Poltergeist Curse and the mysterious deaths associated with it, pot-smoking parents, burial ground real estate, scary clowns, kid-eating trees, swimming pool skeletons, the origi...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 19 - Point Break

September 07, 2010 18:14 - 35 minutes - 50.4 MB

After a sea of comedies (romantic and otherwise), the podcast sets its sights on a HEART-POUNDING, ADRENALINE-PUMPING ACTION flick! No, not Die Hard. Or even Lethal Weapon -- neither of which Krissy has seen, naturally. No, we aimed higher... All the way up to the Keanu Reeves echelon of Greatness. And then we found it; the holy grail -- not Speed or The Matrix, but 1991's high-blood-pressure-inducing POINT BREAK!! (RIP Patrick Swayze.) The HEART-THROTTLING, spoiler-filled discussion includ...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 18 - Risky Business/Cocktail

August 31, 2010 17:31 - 46 minutes - 64 MB

It's an old school Tom Cruise double feature! This week, Kris for the very 1st time finally experiences 'Risky Business' (1983) and 'Cocktail' (1988), two early Cruise films that feature the youthful pursuit of The American Dream through hard work, entrepreneurship, prostitution and bartending with choreography. The meandering discussion includes Risky's important lessons about hookers, Balki and Booger, the hotness of Rebecca De Mornay and her work attire, running a brothel in your house,  J...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 17 - Earth Girls Are Easy

August 25, 2010 17:46 - 30 minutes - 42.4 MB

This week, we hit shuffle on Netflix Watch Instantly and land on the 1989 super-cheesefest 'Earth Girls Are Easy.' Yes, the extremely odd movie about sex-starved aliens inadvertently crash-landing their Oscar Wienermobile spaceship in an L.A. valley girl's pool. As one of us succinctly describes it, "What the crap is this??" Also...Which of us actually liked this movie (and why)? Are earth girls really that easy? What were Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Damon Wayans Jim Carrey and their agents t...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 16 - Ghost/Sleepless in Seattle

August 17, 2010 17:06 - 47 minutes - 65.2 MB

So what do the 90s movies 'Ghost' and 'Sleepless in Seattle' have in common...? Dead spouses! Oscar winners! A protagonist named Sam! Krissy's newfound love!! Seriously, how K went so long without ever seeing either of these movies -- but especially SIS, a movie that has 'KRISSY' written all over it -- is beyond us. Join us as we drink wine and Justin accuses Meg Ryan of being a stalker of 'Fatal Attraction' caliber, Krissy inexplicably defends her love for Bill Pullman (while still pur...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 15 - Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

August 10, 2010 21:04 - 51 minutes - 71.4 MB

Everyone's seen 'Temple of Doom,' right? Well, Krissy hadn't. So we watched it annnnd talked about it a whole bunch. Discussion includes Justin saying "like" a whole lot (he blames stupidity/cold medicine), what really happened with Krissy & her hatred of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark,' which 2 characters will forever be known as Blanket Jackson & Tater Tots, what to do (or not do) when served monkey brains for dessert, the dangers of getting a beer with Mola Ram, the stupidity of a bulimic army &...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 14 - Inception

July 17, 2010 09:47 - 1 hour - 98.6 MB

It's not a dream. Or IS IT? We really do try to explain our intense Sade-like love for Christopher Nolan's 'Inception' in our longest episode yet! Discussion includes why Justin has already seen the movie twice, Krissy's bordering on stalker obsession with Leonardo DiCaprio, how 'Inception' ranks as a Leo film, the awesomeness of the zero gravity sequence, what kind of dreams we would build if we were the architects, the movie's almost too-intense score, that controversial last scene and more...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 13 - The Blue Lagoon

July 13, 2010 17:25 - 48 minutes - 66.7 MB

We go tropical for episode 13 by submitting ourselves to 'The Blue Lagoon,' the 1980 coming-of-age shipwreck drama that starred a 14 year-old Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins & Mr. Feeney from 'Boy Meets World.' Discussion includes what Brooke Shields' mom must have been thinking by putting her daughter in this movie, going through puberty on a deserted island, the suspension of disbelief, attending school dances with your cousin, the dangers of swimming nude near coral, Paddy Button The So...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 12 - The Shawshank Redemption

July 06, 2010 18:32 - 45 minutes - 63.1 MB

On this edition of SIMAMG, Krissy finally watches The Shawshank Redemption (1994) for the very first time. How she somehow missed it airing 20 times a day for the past 15 years on TNT we don't know. Discussion includes contemplating how we'd personally do if each of us were in prison, the movie's number one ranking on IMDB, the theme of hope in the film, how Morgan Freeman has become the king of narration and mix CD's, going to see The Mist on Easter, false Christian wardens, Prison Break the...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 11 - Teen Wolf

June 29, 2010 18:57 - 54 minutes - 75.4 MB

It's a special spoiler-filled birthday edition of SIMAMG as we watch Teen Wolf, the 1985 coming-of-age, dunking-werewolf...comedy?  Its weirdness left us with more questions than answers. Such as: what's the thematic value of Teen Wolf? Could a teen werewolf feasibly work in a kids gym? Why would anyone name their kid BOOF? How do you surf on a car in L.A. without killing yourself? What does the teen wolf guy have in common with Miley Cyrus AND Kobe Bryant, according to Krissy? What's up with...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 10 - The Hugga Bunch

June 22, 2010 16:12 - 36 minutes - 50.2 MB

In honor of Toy Story 3 blowing our minds over the weekend, we subjected ourselves to one of the CREEPIEST KIDS MOVIES OF ALL TIME, the Kroftian 1985 "kids movie," The Hugga Bunch. Don't believe us? It's on You Tube as evidence. During this PG-13 spoiler-filled episode,  Justin explains his personal connection to the movie, plus J&K discuss putting grandma out to pasture, Southern accents, not-so-cool hugs, homemade McGriddles, Clarissa Explains It All, squishy mirrors, singing midget people,...

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 9 - Splice

June 15, 2010 07:25 - 42 minutes - 57.8 MB

The podcast is back for season 2 with a SPOILER HEAVY & very PG-13 look at SPLICE! At great length through bouts of laughter (sorry), we do many impressions of DREN & discuss whether the actors were "in on the joke," awkward Elaine dancing, chicken hand legs, the worst mystery-solving threesome of all time, "freaky barn sex" and Disneyworld.

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 8 - Fight Club

June 14, 2010 07:02 - 26 minutes - 36.6 MB

We're up to eight episodes, and it's about time that Krissy lost ALL HER CREDIBILITY. It's MAY-HAM! Meanwhile, Justin loses his ability to speak coherent English. Well, maybe that's due to seeing life through crap-colored glasses. Also, he is NOT Ben Affleck. And Krissy's still waiting for Guffman. I am Jack's Complete Lack of Surprise.

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 7 - Mannequin

June 13, 2010 18:28 - 25 minutes - 35.8 MB

J & K discuss the 1987 "FLICK" Mannequin, along with extra-special podcast guest Kim Udelf. ...Who had nothing to do with the movie. She's just awesome. Also awesome? Handlebar mustaches (not rape-y ones), Asti & turkey impressions, the history of May Co., "I'm Samantha!" and areola'ge. Have a nipply good time!
