Special thanks to our twin commissioners, Steven S. and Mozbeet for commissioning one of my very favorite films, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, directed by Peter Weir and based on the Patrick O’Brian series that is my very...

Hello, true believers! We have seen Spider-Man: Homecoming, and we pronounce it good.  Really, really good.  It’s kind of amazing how Marvel seems incapable of making anything less than a top level comic book film, and do...

Jim and I got to see Edgar Wright’s newest action/comedy/musical, Baby Driver.  And it’s glorious.  Jim calls it the most entertaining movie of the year.  High praise.  I was blown away by the nerdy charm and magnetism of...

For this week’s commissioned podcast, we got to watch one of the many great collaborations between Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio, the 2010 psychological thriller, Shutter Island.  While neither of us think this movie cracks the top...

Jim and A.Ron checked out the summer action/horror/Tom Cruise vehicle, The Mummy.  A.Ron thinks it’s dumb, but fun, and draws comparisons to Stargate, American Werewolf in London, Hellboy, and League of Extraordinary...

Special thanks to DrKen (previous commissioner of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance) for commissioning this great thriller from the 90’s, The Fugitive, starring Harrison Ford as brilliant doctor wrongfully accused of the murder of his wife...

Jim and A.Ron have seen Alien: Covenant, and declare it to be gorgeous, ambitious, and filled to the brim lofty ideas, but that it’s also really, really stupid.  Which is a shame, since that’s a flaw that mired it’s...

We’ve seen Marvel’s latest installment in the never ending onslaught of comic book  movies, Gaurdians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and we think it’s pretty great.  Some debate can be had about whether it’s as “good” as the...

Special thanks to all our community commissioners for this podcast; Steven Sprague, Spencer H., Libby Ross, dreduble, Cellmouse, Brooks Rittel, betmarik, cocoa2mc, nobrainsallsadness, Martin Karlsson, Eric Brown, rjjone2, and Keith A....

Jim and A.Ron have seen the future, and it is The Circle, and we’re not sure if it’s good.  This movie, or the future.  They’re both kind of a mess.  While extremely well cast and for the most part acted, the basic...

Special thanks to David Pavlicko and the ProjectorPeople.com for commissioning this very “special” movie, the Nicolas Cage remake of The Wicker Man.  This movie is perhaps the epitome of the genre of “crazy ass Nick Cage...
