Two episodes in a week?  Welcome back again to 2023. Can only the crazy survive? Are the 70s the best decade for movies? Could we review this movie independent of reading a book? We review Catch 22. next movie is 1917 (2019).

We are back with an episode from 2023.  Where is Dublin, Texas? How gay can a movie be before the straights notice? are you here for a bad time? We review Tigerland (2000). The next movie is Catch 22 (1970).

Can you shoot flintlocks akimbo? Can love bloom on the colonial battlefield? Just how much product can you possibly find on the frontier? We aren't going to even ask if Wes Studi owns because the answer is obvious. All this and more as we discuss Michael Mann's The Last of the Mohicans.

Do you get dual pistols as you enter Hong Kong? How does evil happen? What even are numbers? When are screaming eagles appropriate? For our 100th episode we review Call Of Duty Black Ops.

Our first time just reciting the plot.  Stay for all the real Texas History!  What happens when you just invent a guy?  How do you prove you are military genius?  Do you know who the greatest American is?    It's not Sam Houston, the focus of this biopic.   If you want to watch this one, look it up on bing!   The next movie is Three Kings (1999).

Between episodes enjoy this conversation about platformers and stuff Square Enix owned.  6 minutes is the exact right length to talk about video games.

After our brief dalliance with a failed videogame console, Warmovis returns to WWII, and the heroic exploits of the first African American combat flight squadron in: Redtails. As produced by George Lucas. We learn all about: The Sexiest Plane, How love can cross the boundaries of language via folded paper, The Dangers of Hard Spirits and MAURICE!

We don't do video game podcasts anymore. To prove we don't we played and ranked every game for the 32X. Do you love Hornk? What's the back of your box say? Is the grass actually greener on the other console? Our next warmovis is still Redtails (2012). special thanks for Ramona ( @lonelyfrontier ) and Closed for sitting through most of these games with us.

In our least jokes by volume episode yet we discuss what it's like to be in a Charnel House, ratioms, islambs, and how the Japanese have Haiku. This warmovis is a downer. It won't all be fun ones when you have a warmovie podcast. The next movie is Redtails (2012).

Happy Holidays! We grouped watched a movie and enjoyed it so much we recorded it right then and there. With conspicuous gallantry, dumpers, and kissing pictures will we ever find the navy? find out as we review Wing and a Prayer (1944).

The Bridge At Remagen scheduled at date with the Allies and the Nazis on the same night.
