What Happened. And What Now?
Donald Trump is president-elect again, and we wish we were surprised. It may seem incredulous that Trump not only won the election, but that he also secured the popular vote — a feat that has escaped Republican presidential candidates for decades. How and Why did the United States fall under the...

Nigh Unwatchable: Election Talk

Join us...

The Whale (with Brendan Fraser)
We're back with a fresh episode, baby! Written by Samuel D. Hunter and directed by Darren Aronofsky, THE WHALE is a 2022 film based on Hunter's stage play of the same title. Despite an incredible performance by Brendan Fraser, which won him an Oscar, the movie falls short of having an impactful...
-
Napoleon (2023)
Napoleon is the historical biopic about Joaquin Phoenix being sleepy and quiet. Boy do we have thoughts on Ridley Scott's less-than-amazing movie!

-
Foe (2023)
We're back in the saddle with a science-fiction flick for you this week! We watched FOE, a movie starring Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal, and Aaron Pierre. Despite the top-notch acting, the story falls short in every way that'll make a true sci-fi fan cry. Our Music is by jacketpocket Follow us…

xXx: State of the Union (2005)
Step aside, Vin Diesel, it's Ice Cube's turn! While in many ways a worse movie than the first xXx, the sequel is a helluva lot of fun. A young Ice Cube, an evil Willem Defoe — it's another movie of its time, and we love that about the xXx movies! This is a fun episode, so join us for the ride ;)...
-
xXx (2002)
Get ready to enter the XANDER ZONE cuz we're talking about xXx, the early 2000s classic starring Vin Diesel and Samuel L. Jackson. This movie is of its time in a number of ways that would be cooler if the flick was better made. Join us as we go through the "very 2002" twists & turns that xXx has…

Jaws: The Revenge (1987)
For this Halloween season, we're taking a dive into the shallow waters of the Bahamas by way of the 4th Jaws movie, Jaws: The Revenge! This movie is both everything and nothing that you'd expect it to be. From the Michael Caine to the human-hunting shark, you're in for a shockingly boring ride!...

The First Republican Debate on Fox News (2023)
We did it for you. We watched the first Republican Debate for the 2024 election cycle. This debate comes before the GOP Primaries have even begun, and already the candidates have congealed into a toxic sludge of many angry voices. Not including the angriest voice, of course, because Trump was not...

Replicas (2018)
This week we discuss REPLICAS, an abysmal movie starring Keanu Reeves and Thomas Middleditch about... something, maybe. Is it about robots? Is it about cloning? Is it about an insane man doing the sci-fi version of necromancy? The answer is: All of the above AND not at all, you silly goose! Join...
