Super Mario Bros.

You know how there’s a movie so bad that you completely block it from your memory until you and your roommate have covid and it seems like the perfect time to watch it? Well, let me reintroduce you to this one! The fact that we couldn’t find it anywhere and had to resort to a…More

Kazaam

You know I had to do it. Welcome to my morning of watching a very confusing, safe, definitely lacking movie. Shaq was the only good thing about it. For the record, I did not think Francis Capra deserved the Stinker for Worst Supporting Actor. That honor belonged to any of the people playing a parental…More

Space Jam

Ah, yes. Much better. This is such a fun movie. It’s simple, light-hearted, and it doesn’t try to be anything but entertaining. I have introduced many people to this movie over the years. It’s my civic duty. This came out in 1996 from Warner Brothers and stars Michael Jackson and Bill Murray as themselves, the…More

Space Jam: A New Legacy

There was so much background noise in this episode! It was ridiculous. So welcome back! I’m sorry I bailed for a few months. Apparently work is always and forever going to be very busy and great but exhausting, and I’m always going to struggle for work life balance, so rather than beat myself up for…More

Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation

Yes, I know this is two weeks late. It’s also definitely not what I wanted for St. Patrick’s Day. I suppose there could be some hidden meaning about a saintly hero sacrificing himself so that others could live if you want to go that route. I actually wound up liking this movie more than I…More

Get Out

I went for the really good movie this week, but this is probably my favorite solo commentary. This one was recommended by Amir, and it is amazing and terrifying, and I wish I hadn’t decided to watch it alone at 1:30 in the morning, but I did, so there. It deserved way more awards than…More

Hard Rain

This was recommended by my friend Izze when we were in the middle of an insane amount of rain last year, I think. Maybe the year before. It’s just a great, mindless, predictable heist/natural disaster movie with quippy banter and great pyrotechnics. The recording is not the best in the world because I was in…More

Cupid

This really isn’t the best movie I’ve ever seen, and I was also really disappointed that I couldn’t find my first choice, Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers. I feel like that would have been a much better Valentine’s Day movie. Who doesn’t love a feel good slasher flick about a chainsaw worshipping cult of prostitutes? I don’t…More

Ape vs Monster

It was a January. I feel like it lasted 31 years, but somehow I never seem to be able to find time to do anything. I blame the cats. And covid. And the weather. And things breaking down and falling apart. But now it’s February! In honor of Black history month, each movie I choose…More

Masters of the Universe

Well, thanks to covid wreaking havoc in various parts of life and a broken heater, I am completely off schedule. So this episode will cover last week and this week, and hopefully I’ll get some good recording and episodes lined up to get back on track. Meanwhile, I give you the ultimate so-bad-it’s-good movie! This…More
