Clear Tinted Classics

I'm busy, so I talk about Dimension 20, my favorite podcasts, Odd Taxi, some movies I watched house-sitting, Die in a Gunfight, and Black Widow.

It's a sub, it's a jet, no, it's a TANK! Jake is joined by his friend Andrew to talk about this punk rock cult movie that maybe totally deserves to be talked about a lot more. Lori Petty is TANK GIRL! And also Naomi Watts is JET GIRL. And Ice-T is a KANGAROO! 

What is this movie? Jake watched it, so he's gonna talk about it. Come find out about Rowdy Roddy Piper being the most virile man in a nuclear wasteland filled with frog people and sexy women. It's... fun?

It's the sequel episode to Chungking Express as Jake and Christina continue diving into Wong Kar-Wai. How does this movie stack up to Express, and is it even fair to compare the two? Is this seedier, arguably sexier spiritual sequel maybe even better? Come find out.

I talk about what I've been watching. Yay. Come on in for recommendations on shows, movies, anime, and even youtube channels.

Jake has never seen Cronenberg's The Fly. Lucas has never seen Cronenberg's The Fly. Together, the finally watch, and talk about Cronenberg's the fly. Is Goldblum good? Is Geena Davis the real protagonist of the story? Is Stathis really a first name? Come find out.

It's just Jake, and he's covering Guy Ritchie's first film, which surprisingly is a British street level crime... thing. Check it out!

Jancy returns to the show to help Jake try and tackle maybe the most complex film that has ever been covered on the show. They don't get that far, but the conversation is real good anyway.

Jake is busy as fuck so he covered a short film, what do you want? Stupid voices? Those are at the end of the episode, so listen to the whole dumb thing.

In the first ever reverse episode, previous guest Christina comes back to help Jake gush about one of his favorite movies of all time, Chungking Express. Also, look forward to even more Wong Kar Wai in the future!

Jake is joined by Taylor and Djosh to try and take on the entire trilogy. They barely scratch the surface, but they have fun trying.

Jake needed a filler episode, so he did this indulgent revision of an old Youtube video. Enjoy?

Guys, the final installment of the Three Colors trilogy, Red! Is this the best of the trilogy? Does it tie everything together? Can it be described in a podcast episode summary? No to the last one, but come find the answers to the other questions.

It might not be a true classic, but it certainly counts as a cult classic. Jake is joined by the guys from the Anti Movie Movie Club to talk about Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward being totally not lovers and fighting off... worms? Come check it out!

Jake stretches the definition of classic with his buddy Espy as they cover this movie that seems like it should just be a standard police movie, but has a lot more going on underneath its skin. Also anything Denis Villeneuve makes counts, so there.

You had to have seen it coming, Jake tackles the second movie in the Three Colors Trilogy, White. Where does it stand compared to Blue, is that even a fair comparison, and is it funny? Come find out.

Jake is joined by Taylor once again, this time to chat about the beloved comedy classic, Young Frankenstein... er, or is that Fronkensteen? The episode devolves into silly madness, but would you have it any other way?

Jake is joined by the host of the podcast Brews and Views, Juan Cordero Jr., to finally discuss this all-time gangster classic. It's Scorsese doing mobsters, what else is there to say?

It's a solo episode! Jake takes on the first film of a beloved French trilogy. Grief, sex clubs, and baby mice, there's a lot to talk about, and Jake has about an hour to do it!

Jake is joined by Jancy to talk about this anime thriller that will make you rethink everything you know about anime, and yourself. The first, but certainly not the last Satoshi Kon movie to appear on the pod!

Jake is joined by a guest all the way from Australia this week, Svetlana Sterlin! They talk about her burgeoning writing career, and then attempt to understand a movie that defies a full understanding, David Lynch's possibly crowning achievement, a trippy breakup movie.

I'm calling these minisodes now. I talk about the future of the podcast and rank all of Yorgos Lanthimos' films. My next episode will be on: Mulholland Drive, with guest Svetlana Sterlin.

Jake is joined by Zach and Joey in what will be the first part of an ongoing series taking on ALL of the Indiana Jones movies. Is this the best one? That's for future episodes to know, but come listen to these boys get introduced to the pod while we talk about Nazi monkeys, how they handled Marion, and Jake wimping out big time about snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?

Raiders of the Lost Ark is next! It's gonna be good. Also, weeb out with anime recs this episode!

Jake takes on the Piano Teacher, from notorious director Michael Haneke. How does this depressing... love? story hold up? Find out by listening.
