You're Gonna Hate It

Join us for a discussion of the 2020 Brazilian psych-Western Bacurau and Sleepy Hollow, arguably the last good Tim Burton movie.

Join us for a one-off about one of 2019’s strangest films, Serenity. We discuss Matthew McConaughey’s olfactory method acting, the most advanced and boring video game in the world, and a fish named Justice.

We finish up our December January (no, YOU fell behind!) blockbuster month with Christoper Nolan’s head-trip extravaganza Inception and Brad Bird’s vaguely Randian, Epcot adaptation(?) Tomorrowland.

Witness us as we ride eternal, shiny and chrome, on the highways of George Miller’s action-punk magnum opus Mad Max: Fury Road and descend into the sour pits of the franchise-ender The Mummy.

We continue our blockbuster December by diving into superhero cinema, contrasting the decade-swallowing behemoth Avengers: Endgame and 2015’s DOA franchise-launcher Fantastic Four.

We begin our blockbuster December by looking at two attempts to “crack” digital filmmaking, James Camerons’ record-breaker Avatar and the Wachowski Sisters’ oddball Matrix follow-up Speed Racer.

Our duo takes on a duo of duos both friendly and non as they take a look at the Joan Crawford/Bette Davis psycho-camp-thriller Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? and the misbegotten Michel Gondry superhero reboot The Green Hornet.

We’ve got two contrasting entries in the wider Catholic Cinematic Universe this week, with Federico Fellini’s Amarcord and the Keanu-starring Hellblazer adaptation Constantine.

The boys take a look at the strange Spielberg/Kubrick amalgam A.I.: Artificial Intelligence and the medieval sports comedy A Knight’s Tale.

Join us on The Episode That Should Not Be, as a very sick Rob and a very nonchalant Matt cough and stumble their way through a foggy discussion of Jacques Tati’s monumental slapstick epic Playtime and the latest from Adam Sandler, Hubie Halloween.

Rob done goofed up and failed to get his homework done in time so the boys just had themselves a free-floating discussion off all things Cinematic, plus a little half-assed trivia. Consider yourselves warned.

There’s no way out for the boys as they lock themselves in the claustrophobic confines of the 1979 sci-fi/horror game-changer Alien and the misguided William Castle remake Thirteen Ghosts.

Silencio: This week the boys take a long, strange trip through David Lynch’s epic nightmare-noir Mulholland Drive and muddle through the Eddie Murphy-starring Disneyland ride adaptation The Haunted Mansion. Remember: He’s the one who’s doing it.

We head deeper, deeper, deeper into horror with Takashi Miike’s singular Audition and the ironic boobsploitation flick Zombeavers.

Our monthlong horror-fest begins with dueling looks at the original folk-horror standard-bearer The Wicker Man and the Nicolas Cage he-man-women-hating reboot.

Join us for the episode that came closest to costing Matt & Rob their sanity. If you can survive their discussion of Joshua Oppenheimer’s harrowing doc The Act of Killing, you’ll be rewarded(?) with a manic, unfocused take-down of the all-time-stinker Epic Movie. There are no heroes here, only survivors.

Brew yourself a nice stiff drink of turpentine and settle in as our mismatched pair debate the merits of Paul Thomas Anderson’s midcentury mind-bender The Master and the vampire/werewolf fight flick Underworld.

Here’s a pairing to convince you life is pain all the way down, as the boys tackle Bela Tarr’s existential marathon The Turin Horse and the Happy Madison also-ran The Animal.

Sally forth with the boys for a very English double-feature as they tackle Ben Wheatley’s Renaissance head-trip A Field in England and the cosmic council flats invasion flick Attack the Block.

This week our two ronin blow into town to talk the American Samurai-flick recut Shogun Assassin and the Lonely Island music-doc parody Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping.

We’ve got a double-dose of the Dutch master as our boys dive deep on Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers and Showgirls. Would you like to know more?

Join us as our pair tackles Elia Kazan’s pre-HUAC antisemitism expose Gentleman’s Agreement and Joe Dante’s anarchic Gremlins 2.

Listen up, pigs: We’ve got your killer tire movie, as requested, but don’t expect us to get excited about it. Remember: none of this matters.

Our boys debate whether is nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of Nazi occupation, or to take up arms against a sea of Universal monsters, as they discuss Ernst Lubitsch’s classic To Be or Not to Be and the comic monster mash-up Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.

Grab your matchlocks, consult your seconds, and have a doctor handy, as our pair of rivals duel over Jean-Luc Godard’s nouvelle vague standard-bearer Breathless and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s smash musical Hamilton.
