200: ‘The Purge: Election Year’ Starring Frank Grillo, Elizabeth Mitchell, Edwin Hodge
It’s episode 200. We were going to do this really cool retrospective with highlights from previous shows (but there weren’t any highlights) and celebrity guests (but we don’t know any) so, umm… here’s ‘The Purge: Election Year.’ It’s the third in a series that is getting exponentially dumber. There are some real head-scratchers in this […]
199: ‘The Purge: Election Year’ Box Office Report (7/8 – 7/10)
America loves talking animals. That’s the take-away from this week’s Box Office Report as everyone apparently caught a showing of ‘The Secret Life of Pets.’ We also discuss the under-performing ‘The BFG,’ and what it means for Spielberg. It’s Reel Spoilers 199: ‘The Purge: Election Year’ Box Office Report. You’ve been warned. Starring: Tom O’Keefe, […]

197: ‘The BFG’ Starring Mark Rylance, Ruby Barnhill, Jemaine Clement
It was a busy week at the theaters this week so we skip the Box Office Report and skip straight to the spoiling the first of two movies this week. We begin with ‘The BFG.’ We talk about what makes a Stephen King movie work, ‘Ghostbusters’ porn parodies – and we coin multiple phrases. Plus […]
196: ‘Independence Day: Resurgence’ Starring Liam Hemsworth, Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch
Everyone left alive at the end of Independence Day is back…with one glaring exception. Joe brings up the Judd Hirsch sitcom ‘Dear John,’ which triggers a treatise in Old Timey television from Tom. And while we all kind of pleasantly shrugged at ID4.2, it won’t stop us from picking it apart. It’s Reel Spoilers 196 […]

194: ‘Finding Dory’ Starring Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Ed O’Neill
It’s hard to believe, but Reel Spoilers is three years old. This episode was recorded on the anniversary of the release of our first episode. So we take a brief (for us) stroll down memory lane before discussing Finding Dory. We also discuss the merits of Squirt, Quisp and Quirst which, in turn, leads us […]
193: ‘Finding Dory’ Box Office Report (6/17 – 6/19)
There were movies that weren’t Finding Dory that opened this weekend, but you’d be hard pressed to tell by looking at the box office numbers. Central Intelligence does OK, meanwhile Now You See Me 2, Warcraft, Alice Through the Looking Glass and Conjuring 2 are in free fall. But don’t worry, we’ll still do some […]
192: ‘Now You See Me 2’ Starring Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson
Now You See Me 2 – Do you like movies about magic but hate how they get bogged down in magic? Then are you in for a treat! Was it dumb fun or just dumb? You’ll know for sure after we spend an hour deconstructing the film. And by “deconstructing” we mean “hating.” Also, Dan […]
191: ‘Now You See Me 2’ Box Office Report (6/10-6/12)
Joe is back but Kevin is out. We’ll let you decided whether or not that’s a good trade. Dan inadvertently does a live spot for Six Flags (much to Tom’s chagrin), Joe regales us with tales of his video game prowess and Tom & Dan enlighten Joe as to the racist history of Phil Collins […]
