Man with Two Brains
Into the mud, scum-queen! This week we discuss the absurdist and surreal Steve Martin anti-comedy vehicle. Spoiler alert: we loved it! (At least in the context of this mini series.)

Mars Attacks
Ack! Ack! Ack! Not to be confused with this week's special guest: Ace! Ace! Ace! This trio takes on yet another Tim Burton film (maybe the most brought director on HMO thus far?) where it weirdly feels like his most grounded flick? But also arguably maybe his most boring. Just our opinion! These...

Freddie Highmore is twin acting his little heart out in this movie adapted from the book series of the same name and it's no parent trap but it's pretty close! Kind of. Well not really but there are a lot of weird little creatures so that is fun! Seth Rogan's least Seth Rogan character maybe of…

Little Nicky
Is this the worst movie we've ever reviewed on the pod? Did Kari and Audrey contemplate turning off this movie 10+ times upon rewatch and have it be the first movie we didn't finish? Was this 'le epic can i has cheeseburger' type humor ever funny even pre internet? Did Kari have to watch many…

Do The Right Thing
