80: ‘Project Almanac’ Starring Jonny Weston, Sofia Black-D’Elia
If you like it when we second guess every conceivable plot-hole of a film then you are in for a treat. Project Almanac is an embarrassment of riches. It’s a time travel movie with no apparent rules for time travel. “Rules? Where we’re going, we don’t need ‘rules’.” So sit back and relax as we […]
79: ‘The Boy Next Door’ Starring Jennifer Lopez, Ryan Guzman, Kristin Chenoweth
The long missing Thom West joins us in the War Room this week for a dissection of The Boy Next Door, starring Jennifer Lopez and her cookies. Her sweet, sweet cookies. Unfortunately, Thom got the nod a little late so he was unable to catch the flick but he does his best to keep up. […]
78: ‘American Sniper’ Starring Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller
For episode 78 we set our sights (get it?) on American Sniper. Clint Eastwood returns to the director’s chair (and we all know how much he loves chairs) to give us the story of the deadliest sniper in military history. But the real question is…can we make it through such a sensitive topic without saying […]
77: ‘Taken 3’ Starring Liam Neeson, Forest Whitaker
This week on the show it’s Taken 3. The first one was awesome, the second one…not so much. Is the third time a charm? Well, let’s just say that Liam Neeson isn’t the only one with a special set of skills. It’s just that his skills are much cooler. We might not be able defend […]
76: ‘The Interview’ Starring Seth Rogen, James Franco, Lizzy Caplan
It’s this week’s most important movie ever…The Interview. People haven’t been this outraged by a Korean themed piece of American pop culture since AfterM*A*S*H. And we’re here to spoil it for you. Plus, since it’s available (legally) on the internet you have no excuse not to listen. None of that “But I haven’t seen the […]
75: ‘Into the Woods’ Starring Anna Kendrick, James Corden, Emily Blunt
This week Vic Porcelli joins us in the War Room to discuss Into the Woods. If you live in St. Louis then you probably recognize Vic as a staple of local radio who currently co-hosts the morning show on Fresh 102.5. What you might not know is that Vic is also an Into the Woods […]
74: ‘The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies’ Starring Martin Freeman, Richard Armitage
This we tackle The Hobbit. Which is good because they’re easy to tackle unless you get one of the invisible ones. We’re down to three this week as Blake and Kevin are out Christmas shopping. Together? We’ll never tell. But we discuss the Sony hacking scandal and its potential Spider-man ramifications, political leanings are revealed, […]
73: ‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’ Starring Christian Bale, Joel Edgerton
Rain! Rain! The crops are saved! Hollywood finally made a new movie. Well, if you count yet another Moses movie as “new”. But it’s been two weeks since we’ve had a major release so, like being at a bar at closing time, it ain’t pretty but we’ll take it. Ridley Scott gives us Exodus: Gods […]
72: The Year Was 1973 (The Sting, Paper Moon, Live and Let Die, Enter The Dragon, Sleeper)
Hollywood takes another week off. (Pyramid? A horror movie? In December? Really?) Well, just because they phoned it in doesn’t mean we did. Instead of spotlighting a film we decided to focus on a year. So we fired up our Random Year Generator (Patent Pending) and it spit out 1973. We’ve each picked a beloved […]
71: Five Completely Different Versions of ‘A Christmas Carol’
This week we put you in the holiday spirit with a special episode dedicated to the story that started it all…A Christmas Carol. Ok, ok…the other story that started it all. Originally published in 1843, A Christmas Carol is considered to have popularized many of our holiday traditions such as family gatherings, using the phrase […]
