by Box Sets Podcast
Did you ever wonder, “How come there isn’t a box set of films where fish tanks are broken in martial arts fights? Or where the characters fall through manholes?” No? Well, Brian and Tim did and Boxsets is the podcast borne of such curiosity. Each episode Brian & Tim recap a set of films “gifted” to each other with the challenge of finding as many connections between those films as possible. The results are hilarity, debate, some blood spilled, and a competition with points put towards a season championship!

Box Sets Date Night Pt. 2
A week late, but not a weak date. Brian sums up Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World (Careful, it's got roller skating!) and The Princess Bride. Chemistry, it seems, is a must for Brian when it comes to romance and at least Westley and Buttercup have inconceivable amounts of it. Scott Pilgrim... not so...

It's A Box Sets Holiday Special! (Part One)
First, we apologize for the late drop. The films in this set are about Santa and we know he would never deliver late (Or could he??) and we regret that we couldn't be more like Santa. In this episode, a lot was left to the cutting room floor. But what remains is Brian's tactful coverage of Get...
