by Mike Robertson and Bob L'Heureux
From Justin To Kane is the only podcast where two cinephiles watch one great classic film and one terrible film and talk about how they are the same
Episodes
-
Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) and Pixels (2015)
In this episode we finally cover two movies we have been wanting to do for a long time. The good movie this week is the exciting action sequel Mad Max Fury Road. And the bad movie is the video game-themed Adam Sandler flick, Pixels. Lots of stuff to talk about... and yet all Bob wants to do is...
-
Putney Swope (1969) and Marry Me (2022)
It's Hollywood's biggest night! This week we recorded our episode right before the Oscars, and so this episode includes our (mostly wrong) Oscar predictions. But of course, the episode must include the usual business.... and this time we are watching Robert Downey Sr.'s wild satire Putney Swope,...
-
The Worst Person in the World (2021) and Song to Song (2017)
We're back after a brief fortnight break! And this time we have another episode for the cinephiles! We talk about Joachim Trier's great anti-rom-com The Worst Person in the World and compare it to the very bad Terrence Malick improv-fest Song to Song, a movie with unbelievable star power…

From Pie Tin to Cake: Special Food Episode
In a fun twist on our classic formula, we swap out movies for food. In this episode, we compare Dairy Queen's classic ice cream cake with a strawberry rhubarb pie that Bob found at a local grocery store. We explore the history of desserts in general and find the similarities between these two…

Speed (1994) and Meet the Spartans (2008)
Kanines! We did it, we watched probably the worst movie we have seen yet. We also watch the 1994 bus-based action movie Speed, which rocks! We manage to find a bunch of "samesies," as always. We also talk about a conspiracy theory involving Steven Soderberg which is actually pretty interesting…
more -
Stop Making Sense (1984) and Boys and Girls (2000)
And you may tell yourself, "this is not my beautiful podcast!" In this hot new epi, we compare the awesome Talking Heads concert film, Stop Making Sense, with the relatively forgotten When Harry Met Sally update for the new millenium, "Boys and Girls", featuring heartthrob Freddy Prinze Jr. We…
more -
The Matrix (1999) and Cool as Ice (1991)
Stop, collaborate, and listen... to this episode of From Justin to Kane! That's right, the Iceman cometh - the Vanilla Iceman that is! We compare the erstwhile rap legend's failed cinematic outing to one of the greatest sci-fi action films ever made: the original Matrix movie! We also talk about...
-
When Harry Met Sally (1989) and Gemini Man (2019)
I'll have what she's having, etc. etc. In this episode we tackle what Bob and Mike think is the greatest rom com ever made - When Harry Met Sally (natch) - and compare it to a pretty bad special effects showcase starring two (!) Will Smiths: Gemini Man! As you all know, Bob loves romcoms so this…
more -
From Justin to Game: Super Mario 64 (1996) and Night Trap (1992)
We're back and this week we are changing things up and talking about video games! Two paradigm shifters from the 90s are being discussed: Super Mario 64, the game that defined 3D gaming, and Night Trap, the controversial Sega CD classic that popularized (for better or worse) full motion video...
-
Chungking Express (1994) and Requiem for a Vampire (1971)
This episode is for the true cinephiles! We watch Wong Kar-Wai's classic dyad of romance, Chungking Express, and we find that it is the same movie as Jean Rollo's eurotrash vampire orgy film, Requiem for a Vampire. Both of these movies are not for everyone, but we had fun with them! Cloons…

New Year, Who Dis?: Best of 2021
2021: This feels over! While it was a generally unpleasant and stressful year, it wasn't so bad for our podcast! In this episode, we recap our favorite films that we saw in 2021. We also talk about episodic storytelling, watching Zack Snyder's Justice League WITH COMMERCIALS, the rumble pak, and...
-
Office Holiday Party AKA From Justin to Candy Kane
It's the annual holiday party! We're all gathering at the big office we have rented out and we are hanging out and chatting about movies, real loosey-goosey like. There are snacks (Timbiebs), drinks (liquified Timbiebs) and music in the background (not Biebs, thankfully). We chat about everything...
-
The Shawshank Redemption (1994) and Tammy and the T-Rex (1994)
It's From Justin Defresne! Welcome back, Kanines. After a few week hiatus we return with a double header from 1994, where we tackle Frank Darabont's sentimental prison drama The Shawshank Redemption and the chaotic "gore-cut" of the wonderfully stupid Tammy and the T-Rex (which features a young...
-
The Father (2020) and A Gnome Named Gnorm (1990)
Hey Kanines, get a load of these bobos... I mean, get a load of this new episode! In this soon-to-be classic epi, we compare the 2020 Oscar-winning film The Father with the terrible Stan Winston-directed "movie for kids" about a perverted gnome who is, according to our sources, named Gnorm. We…
more -
Minari (2020) and The Milky Life AKA La Vida Lactea (1993)
Hey Kanines, we got a reallllll weird episode for you today! On this epi, we compare the wonderful wonderful Minari, with a very obscure movie called The Milky Life, starring Mickey Rooney as a billionaire that decides he wants to be a baby so he puts on a diaper and breast feeds and does all…
more -
Edward Scissorhands (1990) and Street Trash (1987)
In this episode, we find the similarities between Edward Scissorhands, one of Tim Burton's best movies, and Street Trash, a gross-out slime-a-rama that aims to "offend everyone on planet earth". Are they both about social outcasts, on the sidelines of Reagan-era America's gentrification? You…
more -
Midsommar (2019) and Into the Night (1985)
We're back to our old format now that Halloween is over! We still got a scary movie but at least we are doing what the old tagline in the pod description promises. Into the Night is a pretty bad and kinda boring movie, but we have some interesting and timely conversation about how director John...
-
Spooky Month: Child's Play 2 (1990) with Omar Mouallem
Sorry Jack, From Justin to Kane is back! On this episode, our final episode of the month wherein we talk with a guest about a horror film of choice, we are joined by filmmaker and author Omar Mouallem. Omar recently released a hit book, "Praying to the West: How Muslims Shaped the Americas," and…
more -
Spooky Month: Evil Dead 2 (1987) with Lindsay Robinson
Klaatu verata nikto! This week we are joined by special guest, filmmaker and friend Lindsay Robinson! Lindsay is an Edmontonian filmmaker, currently stationed in Berlin, who has directed a horror short called Central Dental - which you can watch online right now! He joins Mike and Bob to talk…
more -
Spooky Month: The Thing (1982) with Lee Boyes
It's our 69th episode! NICE. And to celebrate, we are continuing our October format of having a guest on the pod to talk about their favorite scary movie! This week, we are talking about John Carpenter's The Thing with local hot sauce maker, Lee Boyes, who also is a big part of the team for the...
-
Spooky Month: Alien (1979) with Sylvia Douglas
BOO! It's the first week of October AKA Spooky Month, and thus begins our annual tradition of talking with a guest about an iconic scary movie! This week we are chatting with local shopkeep Sylvia Douglas, one of the owners of the Edmonton comics and pop culture store "Rolling Tales", which…

Minisode: Happy Birthday Mike (and Hearts in Atlantis)
It's Mike's special day and we are celebrating by riffing about bullshit for a half hour (it's still mostly about movies though). We talk about celebrity birthdays, the movie "Hearts in Atlantis" - which turns 20 today! - the PT Anderson movie trailer for "Licorice Pizza", and the "A Star is…
more -
Face/Off (1997) and Elizabethtown (2005)
Zup Kanines! In this episode we chat about two insane films: the action packed John Woo face-swap blowout Face/Off, and the film that inspired the term Manic Pixie Dream Girl, the insufferable Elizabethtown. TRAVOLTA. CAGE. DUNST. BLOOM. MIKE. BOB. GET INTO IT KANINES! Find us on Twitter…
more -
Gumpcast: From Gump to Gump
We're taking a break from our usual format to focus on just one movie. GUMP. That's right, we're talking Forrest Gump. We delve into the movie's politics, the soundtrack, the nostalgia, the cynicism, the darkness, the 90s, the awards... everything GUMP. Get into it, Kanines! It's time to get...
-
The Red Shoes (1948) and Miami Connection (1988)
Kanines, we are finally covering the wonderful rock and roll ninja masterpiece Miami Connection, and comparing it to the beautiful technicolor ballet masterpiece The Red Shoes. This is a really fun episode, very very silly, you are really going to enjoy it. Mike used to do karate (up to orange...
-
Big (1988) and Fateful Findings (2013)
Merry Breensmas! We cover our first Breen film on the pod! And what a film it is. Fateful Findings is a twisted cult classic of the so-bad-it's-good variety, and we are glad to have seen our first Breen. And it is perhaps fateful that we find that it is the same as the whimsical pedo fantasia…
more -
Minisode: Podcast Corner
We break from format this episode to have a little fun and brainstorm some "corners" for our podcast. If you don't know, a "corner" is a segment in our podcast. Some of the corners we explore in this episode include Gamer Corner, Faygo Corner, Review Corner, and Skate Corner... and many more!…
more -
The Last Black Man in San Francisco (2019) and Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Zup gamers! Pass the Mountain Dew Code Red, because we are covering the video game to movie adaptation that started it all, the ill-fated Super Mario Bros! And we are comparing it to the quintessential arthouse indie, The Last Black Man in San Francisco, which was a real treat to watch for the…
more -
Scott Pilgrim vs the World (2010) and Mac and Me (1988)
After a weeklong hiatus, we tackle the cult comic book adaptation, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and compare it to the blatant E.T. ripoff, Mac and Me, two movies that Mike has nostalgic feelings for. Also worth noting that Bob is really hungover for this episode, which adds a certain flair to the...
-
Infernal Affairs (2002) and Space Jam: A New Legacy (2021)
Nyeaaaaahhhhh.... What's up, Kanines? After only a week of release, we tackle the new cynical cash-grab.... er.... "movie", in the Space Jam franchise, and compare it to the film that inspired Marty Scorcese's The Departed, an iconic Hong Kong action film called Infernal Affairs. They are the…
more -
Videodrome (1983) and Samurai Cop (1991)
Long live the new flesh! We watch the David Cronenberg body-horror cult classic where people put Betamax tapes in their tummies, and compare it to the brilliantly entertaining fail-son action film, Samurai Cop. Both of these movies are a lot of fun for different reasons, and both get the Bob...
-
Solaris (2002) and Reign of Fire (2002)
Sad people in outer space and bald guys fighting dragons! 2002 was a wild year for film. We cover the Steven Soderbergh remake of Solaris, not the Tarkovsky original in this episode. So if you are a Tarkovsky-head, this episode ain't for you! (Actually that's not true, we talk about the original...
-
Parasite (2019) and Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999) with Julia Grochowski
Hello there! We bring back special guest Julia Grochowski to talk about two films: Bong Joon-Ho's scathing dark comedy masterpiece about late stage capitalism, Parasite, and George Lucas's Jar Jar Binks vehicle, Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Julia is not only a dyed-in-the-wool...

Bob Watches the Entire Marvel Cinematic Universe: Live From the Backyard!
Over the last few months, Bob watched all the movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (AKA MCU), in narrative order. Mike has only seen a couple of them, and so he interviews Bob about the experience. It happens in the backyard, with beers. It's a lot of fun! We also talk about celebrity bands…
more -
Psycho (1960) and Psycho (1998)
In this epic epi, we take a break from finding similarities and instead break down the differences between two films. Two films with the same name, the same script, the same shot list, the same locations, the list goes on and on. It's the horror classic from Alfred Hitchcock (aka "The Cock"),...
-
La Jetee (1962) and Wild Mountain Thyme (2020)
We're back after a week's hiatus with this, our 53rd (!) episode. In this one, we are talking about a stone-cold film school classic, the often imitated but never replicated, 28-minute French New Wave sci-fi classic La Jetee! It's the film that inspired 12 Monkeys (as in, it inspired the Terry...
-
The Favourite (2018) and Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
In our latest epi, we're talkin' 'bout the latest feature films from ya boi Yorgy and and ya gurl Patty, the darkly hilarious The Favourite and the unbelievably bad Wonder Woman 1984, respectively. They are two period pieces about lonely people thirstin' for power wearing silly costumes. As we…
more -
Sherlock Jr. (1924) and Sex and the City 2 (2010)
In this episode we tackle the 45-minute Buster Keaton silent film masterpiece Sherlock Jr., and find that it contains a lot of the same elements as the terribly misguided sequel Sex and the City 2, a film that finds the fashionable foursome at their culturally insenstive worst in Abu Dhabi of all...
-
Sound of Metal (2020) and Lady Terminator (1989)
It's our 50th episode! Wow! What a milestone! And we're back with another 2020 best picture nominee, The Sound of Metal, a film Mike and Bob both thought was great and deserved best picture. What didn't deserve best picture though, was the fun but trashy, nudity-filled Indonesian cult classic…
more -
Nomadland (2020) and Mortal Kombat (2021)
We're back to our regular format after some fun anniversary episodes. This time we are tackling the recent best picture winner at the Oscars, Chloe Zhao's quasi-documentary movie about the van dwelling subculture of America, and the recent reboot of the Mortal Kombat film franchise. We share our...

First Anniversary Episode! Citizen Kane Turns 80!
This episode marks one full year of our podcast! We did it! And we couldn't have done it without all you Kanines! We look back on the year that was, and reflect on all we have accomplished on the pod. We also celebrate Citizen Kane's 80th birthday, which is the same day as our first upload! Plus,...
-
The First Annual Kanie Awards!
We celebrate our first year of existence as a podcast by hosting an award show wherein we give awards to the movies that made us laugh, cry, snore, sigh, make pee-pee and poo-poo, etc. etc. It's a celebration of cinema - From Justin to Kane style! We give out fake awards to the movies that we...
-
Mobysode (We Like to Score)
In this special spin-off from our Freddy Got Fingered/Spirited Away episode, we do things a little differently. We are still talking about movies, but as they relate to the electronic artist Moby, who has quite the history with having his music featured in movies and commercials. We get into his...
-
Spirited Away (2001) and Freddy Got Fingered (2001)
It's Freddy Got Fingered's 20th Anniversary! To celebrate, we spend over an hour talking about this post-modern surrealist masterpiece that is also considered one of the worst American movies ever. Mike loves FGF and Tom Green and has a lot to say about this movie, and Bob was not a fan, so it...
-
Point Break (1991) and Tom and Jerry: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2017)
In this episode we find that the surfing action thriller Point Break is somehow the same as Tom and Jerry: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the clumsily titled straight-to-video nostalgia mashup that no one wanted. We loved Point Break, it's a "ride". We fell asleep during the Tom and Jerry...
-
Seven Samurai (1954) and Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) - Part 2
Part two of our epic dissection of Seven Samurai and Zack Snyder's Justice League is here. In this episode we really break down the similarities between these two films that are 3.5+ hours in length with a square aspect ratio, about a team being assembled, and are (now) both in black and white.…
more -
Seven Samurai (1954) and Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) - Part 1
In our quickest turnaround yet, we recorded this episode two days after the movie came out! We are, er, celebrating the release of Zack Snyder's Justice League by doing an extra long episode! So long that we split it into two episodes! But of course, we gotta stick to format, so we are saying…
more -
From Clint to Clint: Unforgiven (1992) and The Mule (2018)
It's our Clint Eastwood Spectacular episode where we watch one of Clint Eastwood's great films (the Oscar-winning Unforgiven) and one of his bad films (The Mule) and we find that they are the same film in many ways. If you like Clint Eastwood, this is the episode for you. Get amped, Clint stans....
-
Taken (2008) and Runaway Bride (1999)
America's Sweetheart, Julia Roberts, reunites with silver fox Richard Gere for an inferior film, Runaway Bride. We find that it is pretty much the same movie as the 2008 "actioner" Taken, starring Ireland's Sweetheart Liam Neeson, a movie for "basic daddies". We also talk about how great T9…
more -
Saturday Night Fever (1977) and Attack Force (2006)
In this episode, we are proposing that the cinematic celebration of disco dancing, Saturday Night Fever, is the same movie as the Steven Seagal crapfest, the generically-titled Attack Force. And We say this every week, but this might be the WORST movie we have watched so far. We also delve into...
