Clear Tinted Classics

Daisy guests on the show for the very first time, and her and Jake tackle their very first Lars von Trier movie. Lots of talk about metaphor, mental illness, shaky cam, and Jake maybe uses this episode as too much of a therapy session. Check it out!

Jake watched A LOT of stuff recently, so he's gonna talk about it.  TV Shows: Cobra Kai, Midnight Mass, and Arcane.  Films: Those Who Wish Me Dead, All Too Well (Taylor Swift Music Video), There Will Be Blood, Nightmare Before Christmas, Annette, The Harder They Fall, Pig, Riders of Justice, Plan B, Till Death, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, Pixie, The Power of the Dog, Val, The Matrix...

What better movie to tackle this spooky December than one of the Grandmamas of slasher horror and an ode to the holidays, Black Christmas. Shelby Nave is back on the show to help Jake through this one, and they have a blast sorting through the fun, the cool, and the stuff that doesn't quite add up. Hope you enjoy this gift!

It's a super episode. Jake has never seen the Matrix movies before, any of them, so it's time to catch up before the new one comes out. Previous guests Tony, Neal, and Andrew are here to help, and thank goodness they are. It's a wild ride, into the Matrix!

Jancy is back on the show to break all the rules and help Jake as he gushes way too much about Jennifer's Body. They've both seen it already, but who cares. Does is count towards Spooky December? Who cares???

Christina is back on the show to talk about this Tim Burton... ahem, Henry Selick directed classic! Jake discovers this movie is actually a full on musical, and has a lot of thoughts about Jack and how kind of dumb he is. They talk a lot about the musical episode of Buffy, but eventually also about the actual film. Check it out!

Jake talks about A LOT of Christmas movies. He doesn't actually remember most of them. It's fine. Stay till the end for the Technically Christmas Movie section where Jake actually get's fired up.

Jake takes on another Paul Thomas Anderson film, but this time he isn't alone! Kurt Roembke joins him to tackle this intense look at a man who might be a monster, but... well he is, but it's interesting. Also, please check out https://www.spaceowlproductions.com for all of Kurt's amazing projects!

Jake is joined by new friend Tony Walters to talk about this Oscar winning film from the Coen Brothers. But first they talk about the new feature Tony is gearing up to direct, and his influences growing up. Also, please check out his company, Rad Entertainment, and their website radentertain.com and support their Indiegogo project, The Undesirables which starts November 19th!

Movies: Streets of Fire, No Time to Die, Titane, The French Dispatch, But I'm a Cheerleader, The Last Duel, Dune, and No Country for Old Men.

It's not Halloween month anymore, but it is in our hearts. Taylor is back on the show to talk about growing up watching horror movies, how hot Nicole Kidman is, and eventually, Practical Magic.

It's almost Halloween, so it's time for Eraserhead, for some reason. Dive into Lynch with me.

Jake is joined by special guest Shelby Nave to discuss one of the all-time Halloween classics... Halloween! Get in the mood for fall while watching a young man in a painted William Shatner mask follow people around. Jake and Shelby talk about her history with film and her experience getting a film degree and the pluses and minuses of having a successful Youtube channel. And then they talk about th...

Who did it? Well, that's a complicated answer. But Jake is joined by first time guests Amber and Nick to talk through this campy murder mystery classic. Come for Tim Curry, stay for the multiple endings.

Jake runs through horror movies he has and hasn't seen.

One of the few Adam Sandler movies Jake hadn't seen, one of the many Paul Thomas Anderson movies he hadn't seen, seemed like a good idea.

The film thinks the sales pitch is a talking gorilla, but that's maybe the least interesting thing about this movie. Jake is joined by childhood friend Justin to take on this wacky (sometimes) 90s action (sometimes) film about diamonds, gorillas, and a communications company that maybe wants to take over the world.

Capping off our Wong Kar-Wai trilogy (maybe?) with perhaps his most well regarded film. Is it the best? Is it sad? Come find out as Christina and Jake dive back into the world of sexy Tony Leungs and Maggie Cheungs.

Finally time to dive into the Marx brothers. And what a movie to start with. A war satire where all their gimmicks were firmly established. Let's go.

Jake ranks the Nolan films he has seen. Come for the controversary, leave because he forgot to mention how bad the sound mix in Tenet was.

Jake is joined by writer/director John Oak Dalton to talk about this interesting genre piece from Jean-Luc Godard. When a rogue computer takes over an entire city, things get kind of wacky! Jake also talks to John about how he got started in screenwriting and filmmaking. Check it out!

Some people consider it Guermillo Del Toro's magnum opus, so it needed to be tackled. Jake is joined once again by Svetlana to talk about another pretty esoteric movie, this time though, it has a kid fighting a frog.

Jake watched The Suicide Squad and The Green Knight recently, so he talks about them.

Jake is joined by friend Tommy to dive into what is considered by some to be De Palma's best movie? Is it? Maybe!

Jake watches one of the most classic French New Wave films of all time, and kind of didn't like it. Whoops.
