Death, catchy songs, missing children, hilarious jokes, starvation, pretty colors, bombing, and more in our animated movies episode!  Listen as we discuss the animated films that scarred us for life, the ones that moved us, and the ones that are funny beyond belief!

Dystopian Starters Bonus

November 27, 2021 15:00 - 10 minutes - 9.03 MB

The producers challenge our hosts overall rating of this group of films. Katrina shares her slight obsession with watching Divergent...and Four. Rich isn't sure whether or not we are bonusing. We talk about what factions we may be in, and share random tidbits of information with you. 

Dystopian Starters

November 26, 2021 15:00 - 20 minutes - 14.5 MB

We go deep into the dystopian world with these four films: Hunger Games, Divergent, The 5th Wave, and Maze Runner. Some of them went farther than others, but we look just at the first film and say what's weak and what's fleek. What makes them work? Why does this genre keep having so much success? Are adults the problem? These are just some of the questions we examine.

Failed Sci Fi Franchise Starters

November 05, 2021 20:48 - 34 minutes - 23.5 MB

Let's see why these franchise starters didn't quite start what they intended to start. We break down the weak and (slightly) fleek of these films (depending on which host you ask)!

Growing Up Comedies Bonus

October 30, 2021 14:00 - 8 minutes - 6.86 MB

We go a little deeper into these films and discuss actors acting like other actors...

Growing Up Comedies

October 29, 2021 14:00 - 20 minutes - 18.8 MB

"Why are we even a podcast?" Do we agree or agree to disagree? Thriller, Walking Piano, Razzles, and magic fortune cookies bring us together for this episode all about movies dedicated to growing up...or magically being a different age for awhile.

Matrix Trilogy

October 15, 2021 15:20 - 28 minutes - 24.9 MB

"Unfortunately, no one can be told what The Matrix is. You'll have to see it for yourself." However, we can tell you what we think is weak and what we think is fleek. Join us as we agree...and disagree. Who knows? We may even have a guest try to join us. 

Season 4 Promo

October 08, 2021 01:24 - 16 seconds - 313 KB

We're back with another season of verbal sparring! Red pill or blue pill, wax on or wax off, candor or dauntless, coco or vivo, Liam or Neeson...these are just a few of the debates we tackle this season.

Mission Impossible Bonus

June 18, 2021 22:06 - 15 minutes - 11.8 MB

Season 3 Finale - Mission Impossible!

June 18, 2021 14:25 - 29 minutes - 28.3 MB

Yikes. Is that Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill duking it out? Nope. It’s Katrina and Richard. And ironically (but not surprisingly) we’re battling over Henry Cavill (and Rebecca Ferguson, Dougray Scott and Jeremy Renner) That’s right. It’s our Mission Impossible to get through this podcast episode without a major fight. We can barely get through the first five minutes for Katrina laughing. Our Season 3 closer is definitely On Fleek.

Romantic Films Bonus

June 12, 2021 19:39 - 5 minutes - 2.8 MB

Just like you can't put down a good romance novel, we can't put down these romantic films. BONUS!

Romantic Films

June 12, 2021 19:29 - 23 minutes - 14.5 MB

Which of the American Film Institute’s most romantic movies of all time made our episode? Not a one. This minor snub does not impede our podcast from finding four romantic gems to debate the weak and fleek. Richard can’t stop knocking one of the films and Katrina can’t stop busting out terrible accents. Is it romantic? Perhaps not. Is it fun? You bet!

Gene Wilder Bonus

June 04, 2021 19:53 - 6 minutes - 5.23 MB

Bunny-hop your way into this episode as we reflect on a movie we rejected and discuss where we would script ourselves in time if we had the choice.

Gene Wilder

June 04, 2021 19:50 - 29 minutes - 20.3 MB

Saw, Poltergeist, Silence of the Lambs, none of these are films we are reviewing and yet we talk about them!  If you want to hear about Gene Wilder, simply listen in and do it.  Mystery, horror, tormenting small children to teach them a lesson, what more could you want?

Zack Snyder Trilogy Bonus

May 28, 2021 17:36 - 16 minutes - 12.8 MB

Join us as Katrina's relationship with Henry Cavill enters a new phase.  Is there such a thing as too many Batmen?  Richard shares his two most hated movies of all time.  We ponder the future of the Snyderverse like we have some control over it (perhaps we do).  Squish your Mother Boxes together and let your imagination run wild in this bonus episode.

Zack Snyder Trilogy

May 28, 2021 17:32 - 35 minutes - 31.5 MB

Picture us running in slow-mo with Jeremy Irons narrating.  Justice is here for the Zach Snyder trilogy.  Listen as Katrina lies to Richard only 2 minutes into the episode.  We give some of the stuff a nice long look from all the angles with all the backstory.  Others we drag behind the batmobile of our criticism.  Is Jonathan Kent Satan?  Is there a more annoying Lex Luthor in existence?  (No.)  Listen in for all this and more!

Solo Actor Films

May 21, 2021 04:18 - 28 minutes - 24.8 MB

From the cold abyss of space to the deep depths of the ocean, we examine a handful of movies starring a single actor. One of our hosts nearly made this a single host episode. Have a listen to see which one! 

Birth Year Films Bonus

May 15, 2021 18:20 - 7 minutes - 5.98 MB

Birth Year Films

May 14, 2021 14:00 - 25 minutes - 23.3 MB

The hosts and producers journey back in time (some farther than others) to the years of their births. Then they each selected a film from their birth year that is...well they picked a film. We delve into the highs and lows of our birth years to find the finest entry.

An American in Peril Bonus

May 08, 2021 14:00 - 8 minutes - 6.77 MB

What’s the line between PG-13 and R?  We get into it.  Also buns.  And more of Richard’s crush.  Lead swapping.  What are Buffalo hearts made of?!

An American in Peril

May 07, 2021 14:00 - 26 minutes - 23.6 MB

Can Katrina and Rich be serious for an entire episode?  No but they do have a pretty serious episode as they discuss Americans in Peril.  Cultures clash and Americans are...trash?  (We wanted to rhyme.)  Rich also shares his man crush repeatedly.  Katrina patiently endures.

Spielberg Creatures - Bonus

May 01, 2021 14:00 - 13 minutes - 9.65 MB

Sequels are the true monsters.  In our bonus we discuss the offspring of these films.  Michael Caine, roaring sharks, raining sharks, and should Jurassic Park be extinct?

Spielberg Creatures

April 30, 2021 14:00 - 21 minutes - 19.4 MB

“Ouch.”  “We’re gonna need a bigger boat.”  “We must go faster.”  This episode we tackle the creature features of Steven Spielberg.  Sibling insults, inferior rip-offs, and moments of pure fear all exists in these films but we declare one of them to be (dare we say) perfect.

Culinary Cinema

Plus, Rich drools all over Patrick Stewart and Katrina just laughs. So...normal day for your favorite hosts.

Rocky/Creed

April 09, 2021 05:53 - 25 minutes - 22.7 MB

“Yo Adrian, it’s season 3!” Ding, Ding, Ding. Round One. Coming in swinging with the Rocky movies.  We punch our way through an 8 film epic series with plenty of fun discussion of this iconic saga. This episode has the heart of Rocky I and the awkwardness of Rocky V. 

Season 3 Promo

April 07, 2021 03:17 - 54 seconds - 1.16 MB

November 01, 2020 17:00 - 14 minutes - 10.3 MB

September 05, 2020 01:00 - 16 minutes - 11 MB

David Warner acting master class in Titanic is one part of the bonus episode. The Death Star and Titanic are unified, Scarlett O'Hara and the Na'vi are basically family. We desperately try to link all these different movies. Enjoy!
