Scraping The Vault

You might see the title for this episode and think to yourself: “are they really so negligent in their release schedule that they are putting out their Christmas episode in March?” To which I, Dan, say to you: no that’s ridiculous, we recorded this one in February. I’d say this isn’t going to become a trend but it has clearly become one. We watched Hot Frosty as the last of our Dealer’s Choice mov...

What can we say, these aren't getting any better. This movie was released just after John Lasseter hugged the straight to video sequels away.. This one does not carry any future plot, it does not fill the characters out in any way, and perhaps even takes away from some of the character relationships from the original film. Listen as Audrey, Dan and Jimmy try to make sense of this "tale" Learn more...

We have fully evolved into a Harry Potter Podcast. Don't know when it happened, but it did. Think about it, Cinderella 3 has magic, wands, fairies, an evil person who you can't say their name (mostly cause they don't have one) and Audrey and Jimmy happen to know a lot about HP. Anyway, this movie is a masterpiece. I don't care what Dan says. Listen as Dan, Jimmy and Audrey explore the themes and d...

We're back!!! Fox and the Hound was a movie. The source material for that movie was dark! The sequel, Fox and the Hound 2 has absolutely nothing to do with the original film or the source material. It was like someone came up with a long episode of some Disney channel show about two cis white twin boys and they were like, we could make this into a movie, what characters could we use that have some...

Lilo and Stitch was a charming movie about a girl and her sister experiencing and helping each other through the trauma of losing their parents and learning to be an ohana. Then Disney made 3 more movies based mainly of the wacky, farting alien who appeared in their lives to help them do this and grow as people. Then they made a TV series based on that farting alien and all of the other farting al...

Well, it’s that time of year again as we do our annual round of “dealer’s choice” films so that Jimmy can watch a Christmas movie, Dan can be a secular contrarian, and Audrey doesn’t have to get drawn into that mess. This year our Christmas movie is the Rankin Bass The Year Without A Santa Claus and we finally realized that doing this episode before the actual holiday probably made more sense. Joi...

Pooh’s Heffalump Movie is a film so utterly terrifying that many won’t even mention it by name. In our special Halloween episode, we return to the STV studios to recount the utter horror visited upon us by this very frightening Halloween movie. Will this movie be a treat? Or will it trick us…into having scary nightmares?! Listen to this episode with the lights on. Or, more likely, while you drive...

Audrey is back from her trip to Australia doing good deeds for the improv community and she’s just in time to watch Tarzan 2 with Jimmy and Dan so that you don’t have to. Tarzan 2 is, of course, a movie about Tarzan as a young child who, of course, meets up with a grizzled old man gorilla (proper pronunciation revealed in the episode) who asks Tarzan to keep a secret between the two of them. And,...
