After an extended Weekly Watch List (how did Mike’s water bottle end up in a toilet?), we look to the future and discuss some exciting new movies. (01:35)
Next we grab our bicycles and review “The French Dispatch,” Wes Anderson’s journalism anthology. Who in this massive cast stood out, and who was underused? Can any of us decipher the origin of the student protest? Most importantly, what is Henry Winkler doing in this movie? (27:26)
Then we head to Montana (a hundred years ago) to discuss Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog.” How does the invisible Bronco Henry loom over the entire story? What role does self-rejection play? Most importantly, how effective is the pinano music? (54:35)

Home Sweet Home Alone // Holiday Special
Weekly Watch List (00:44)
It’s that time of year for a warm fire, eggnog, and…Steven Tyler as an elf lieutenant? We give each other the gist of holiday movies, some favorites and some lumps of coal (07:48)
Then, we dive into the SIXTH entry in the Home Alone franchise, ‘Home Sweet Home Alone’ Were the performers given the material to achieve their comedic potential? Why was the morality of this film so off-putting? Most importantly, how can orange soda spark so much violence? (49:11)
House of Gucci // Ridley Scott
First, an extended Weekly Watch List, followed by polarized reactions to the Marry Me trailer (Bring back theatrical rom-coms!) (1:34)
Next we talk Ridley Scott, his highly developed worlds, and… ABBA ON MARS? (22:49)
We also share thoughts on Scott’s other movie of 2021, “The Last Duel”
(Trigger Warning: While discussing the plot of “The Last Duel” we very briefly mention r*pe and assault. If you are not comfortable with this, please skip to the next segment.)(1:06:10)
Then we head to Italy and update our wardrobes to discuss “House of Gucci” Is this a hilarious farce or an intense family drama? Which performances (and accents) stood out? Most importantly, what is the worst spousal insult we’ve ever heard in a theater? (1:11:38)
King Richard // Top 3 Will Smith Performances
From The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (and it’s underwater remake?) to the present day, we’re talking about the career of WILL SMITH!!!!!!!
First, for our weekly watchlist, we discuss Ghostbusters: Afterlife and its merits as a nostalgic reboot. We also play a new prediction game with the trailer for Dog. (00:45)
Then we’re welcomed to Earth as we list our Top 3 Will Smith movies (including a passionate defense of Shark Tale)! (24:05)
It all leads up to King Richard, a delightful movie with an entire cast of excellent performances. How does this meet the challenge of modern sports movies? How does it keep things interesting when we know the real-life outcome? Most importantly, does this movie use “Cruel Summer” by Bananarama more effectively than last year’s Hillbilly Elegy? (54:22)
The Harder They Fall/Finch
We've got a lot of news this week, but most notably...
In honor of Disney+ Day, we discuss the new project announcements, where the Cars franchise meets… MAD MAX??? Also, why did Darren Aronofsky get behind TWO extreme exploration series starring two of Hollywood’s most charismatic men? (12:11)
Then we have a DOUBLE review for you. First, we head to the American dusty plains for ‘The Harder They Fall,’ an exciting new western on Netflix. With its stellar cast, what does this film add to the western genre? Also, why are horses always caught up in the middle of human conflict? (35:21)
For our second review, we head to post-apocalyptic St. Louis for ‘Finch’ (aka Turner and Hooch 2049), the new sci-fi spectacular on Apple TV+. Does Tom Hanks turn in another emotional performance against non-human characters? What made Mike so upset? And most importantly, is Finch the long lost son of JOEY GLADSTONE??? (1:01:01)
Part Two
After our bafflement with some movie news, we have a talk with the Celestials about the newest Marvel movie, ‘Eternals’ (aka Marvel’s Forrest Gump). Was Matt brought over to Chloe Zhao’s side? Does the movie take advantage of the excellent casting? Which of the Stark brothers should Sersi choose?
Then, we dive into Marvel Phase 4. What have we already gotten? What is still to come (quite a lot)? Will we ever reach a point where the Marvel momentum slows?
Finally, we celebrate over a decade of Marvel by praising our Top 3 Marvel films!

After discussing the teaser for Lightyear (Is he a real astronaut? We don’t know what’s going on!), we head downtown to review ‘Last Night in Soho.’ Psychological thrillers are always in style, but does this one hold together? How is this movie reminiscent of ‘Sleeping With the Enemy?’ Most importantly, where can we get a newspaper dress?
Then, we discuss the new horror movie ‘Antlers.’ A concerned teacher intervenes in the life of a troubled student, but what creature could be lurking just behind her, and how can she stop it?

After our Weekly Watch List and discussing some trailers (Jake Gyllenhaal giving it his all in Ambulance), we head to Arrakis and ride some sand worms to discuss ‘Dune,’ based on the novel of the same name by Frank Herbert. How well is the original lore explained? Considering this is only Part 1, does this movie stand well on its own? Also, how did Paul fight with all that hair in his face?
On this podcast, we love movies, we love books, and we love books made into movies! We discuss our top book to movie adaptations (Is the book always better?)

In the dead of night, we head to Haddonfield where Michael Myers is (still) out for blood. ‘Halloween Kills’ is a departure from many traditional slasher films, but are the risks worthwhile? Also, why does Tommy Doyle insist on performing the worst opening mic act anyone has ever seen?
Then, we list our top 5 terrifying movies that get us in the Halloween spirit!
This episode is dedicated to the loyal Halloween/Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans.
