E11 Murder on the Orient Express (1974)
May 19, 2022 21:11 - 18.6 MBI know, I know, excuses, excuses. But we're back! Hopefully for good this time, but no promises. In this episode, Dave picks a movie at random from Derek's list and ends up with MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS from 1974. We talk for quite a long time about this movie; including talk on remakes, endings, mysteries, unfortunate racial comments, and even biblical puns. We're not sorry. Follow us on Twitter!

E10 The English Patient
December 30, 2021 21:21 - 29 minutes - 13.6 MBWe are back again for a treasured classic. Treasured unless you are Elaine Benes from Seinfeld (a show Derek has never watched). We talk all things romance and longing with THE ENGLISH PATIENT. Derek sides with anyone who isn't white and rails against the punishment of white women in caves. Dave basically just cries. Enjoy!

House
November 18, 2021 04:03 - 30 minutes - 14 MBWe have finally returned! (It is all Derek's fault.) But regardless, we are back to talk about a Criterion classic, HOUSE! (or HAUSU if you're nasty.). We take a close look at the horror comedy and try our best to tease apart comparisons to Nightmare on Elm Street, ass eating, Hiroshima, and Derek's fascination with barely legal Japanese women. All in a half hour. Enjoy! Follow us on Twitter! Look at the pretty pictures on Instagram! Artwork by Derek Stewart Music by Pixabay This pod...

E8 Bottle Rocket
September 18, 2021 04:31 - 43 minutes - 20 MBBottle Rocket We are back with a much easier film to figure out, BOTTLE ROCKET. Derek accuses Dave of being just like these characters, which frankly stinks of discrimination. But we move on pretty quickly to denigrating Wes Anderson and wishing that he never made any money. We also talk about the very different careers of the two Wilson brothers and determine just how annoying Dave would be if he had watched this movie as a teenager. Derek actually sat through this white nonsense and liked...

Giant
August 21, 2021 04:00 - 46 minutes - 21.3 MBThis episode is Derek's revenge! After Dave made him sit through the two hours and change of RAN, he strikes back with the aptly named GIANT! Derek loses his mind (again) about LIz Taylor, and they talk James Dean as the weak link, the scope, and if the United Colors of Benetton ending still works. Check it out!

Ran
August 07, 2021 21:47 - 42 minutes - 19.6 MBHello again! This episode was delayed because whoever the idiot is that edits these, forgot to post it! But anyway, in this episode, Dave makes Derek watch a true classic, Akira Kurosawa's RAN! Listen as Derek backpedals and apologizes for ever impugning Dave's taste in earlier episodes. Finally, the scales are even. (This means Derek liked Ran). We talk Kentucky's terrible education system, Shakespeare adaptations, and the importance of fools. Enjoy!

E4 The Stepford Wives (1975)
July 20, 2021 04:00 - 49 minutes - 22.8 MBWe return once again, this time to watch a movie Dave has never seen. Derek is in disbelief, but Dave has never seen THE STEPFORD WIVES. Weirdly, he has seen the remake but not the original. Dave struggles with the direction of the film, but overall digs it. He may go a little overboard on the political side of things, but he stands by the fact that if you think horror isn't political, you should try again. Derek foolishly allows Dave to keep talking, but joins in to discuss feminism and rev...

Akira
July 05, 2021 04:00 - 36 minutes - 16.8 MBDisappointed Derek Well, Derek was really excited to finally watch AKIRA! Unfortunately, this did not go well. Dave and Derek talk a lot about how difficult it is to watch movies meant for different times and ages. We also wander around a bit and touch on a bunch of topics; including body horror, Dragonball Z, annoying white nerds, and whether or not a movie even needs a plot if it's cool enough.

Sex, Lies, and Videotape
June 21, 2021 04:00 - 45 minutes - 20.8 MBMore Commas We continue with movies with too many commas and talk SEX, LIES, AND VIDEOTAPE. We discuss the relative sexiness of James Spader, including his hair to body mass comparison. And, of course, we disagree on which sister is better. On a smarter level, we also discuss therapy in movies, psychoanalyze Steven Soderbergh, and detail what we can expect out of relationships. Follow us on Twitter!

In THE COOK, THE THIEF, HIS WIFE, AND HER LOVER we take a look at the ridiculously hard to find film from Peter Greenaway. We talk the difference between respecting and liking a movie, sexual deviance, Helen Mirren, Dave's fashion sense, and, of course, cannibalism.
