Cheers To The End

This episode we break down 2002's Reign of Fire. A movie that asks, “What if dragons woke up and immediately chose violence?” Yes, dragons. It stars an intense Christian Bale, and a completely unhinged Matthew McConaughey in all of his unblinking absurdity. Who's master plan mostly involves jumping at airborne fire-breathing lizards with axes. It’s Mad Max, meets medieval LARP. And we cannot stress enough how seriously this movie takes itself while being an absolutely ridiculous premise. Come have a beer with us and join in the absurdity. Cheers!

In this episode, the guys put the hammer down on 2008's Cloverfield, directed by Matt Reeves (NOT J.J. Abrams.) A movie that asks, “What if your going away party was crashed by a skyscraper sized bad day?” Follow a group of every twenty-something movie trope, as they run through New York armed with nothing but a camcorder, extremely questionable decisions, and zero survival instincts. Come drink and break down the chaos, the mystery, and why a one night stand is no reason to run headlong into a 300 foot tall baby alien. Cheers!

On this episode, we dive into 2009's Knowing. The movie where Nicolas Cage discovers the apocalypse is basically a math problem and reacts the only logical way: by yelling at paper, franticly putting himself in harms way, and trusting his hair plugs. We unpack flying disasters, whispering aliens (maybe?), and a universe that apparently runs on bad vibes and worse acting. Is it determinism or does shit just happen? Come share a beer with us and find out!

In a future of precognition, and Tom Cruise running, should people be put away for the intent to murder? Are any of us safe if they can read our thoughts, or track us through our eyes?
