Ready yourselves listeners. For as long as anyone can remember, a war has been raging between the settlements of East and West Appleton. Now, the final chapter in this war is fast approaching. The battlefield? A bowling alley. It’s soldiers? A bunch of absolute lunatics who are obsessed with the 1950s. Normally I’d say it is cooler than it sounds on paper, but not so much with this one. We were re...

Whoops! Sorry we were a little late on this one, hope it didn’t turn your world upside-down or anything. Then again, I kind of hope we did because this episode is about everything upside-down! That’s right we are going back to Modern Movie May (in June?) for Upside-Down Magic. So join us as we enter a magical world…I think? Like, it’s not super clear how magical the world actually is or how much p...

Content Warning: Due to topics within the film it is discussing, this episode contains topics relating to eating disorders and bullying people with disabilities. Listener discretion advised. Hey there! Thought we forgot about you, huh? Don’t worry, we may have been delayed for quite a while, but we are finally ready to go to the mat with you all! Although by “being ready” I actually mean we are wo...

My dear audience, it’s finally time (after a small delay) to face your destiny and hear all about the greatest warrior of a generation…the one and only: Wendy Wu! It’s a movie that many remember fondly, including one of the hosts, but there is a lot going on here. Frankly the whole thing has left us a little shook, but take a listen and find out for yourself everything this movie has to offer. Oh,...

Y’all ready for this? We’ve got one more episode for you before we slip into the New Year and it’s all about two things: Judaism and Basketball. That’s right, Full Court Miracle brings together that classic dynamic duo once again. Come along with us, and our new guest Louie, to the City of Brotherly Love as we witness a miracle take place before our very eyes. Not so much all the oil lasting long...

Ahoy! We may have been a little delayed in our travels, but your intrepid hosts are finally headed aboard the S.S. Tipton for their next cinematic adventure. That’s right, it’s time for everyone’s favorite troublesome twins to take center stage in The Suite Life Movie. Oh, what hijinks ensue with these two rocking the boa…huh? Oh, again?! Fine. Once again, very little of this film actually takes p...

Sorry we couldn’t get this to you in time for Halloween, my internet connection fell into a bit of a vampire trance it would seem. Anyway, I hope you’ll still allow us to belatedly celebrate Disney Channel’s favorite time of year, when they can flex their monopoly on spooky movie vibes. Only problem is…they have too many! We needed help deciding what to watch and enlisted you all to help via twitt...

Giddyup y’all! We’ve got another horse-based film for you this month, as we take a look at Ready to Run. In many ways, it feels like a pretty standard story about a child coming of age and taking on the world of sports the same way their father did before he died. Except…sigh…there is a particular thing that happens in this movie that ruins the whole thing and…why am I trying to keep things vague?...

WHAT TIME IS - Ahem. Sorry, I should show some restraint. There’s enough of our ecstatic energy poured into every single second of this episode to power a city, I should keep things chill in the description. Hello everyone. We are so excited to be starting this season off with a crowd favorite, the summertime sequel to the cultural phenomenon of HSM. Did it live up to the original? Does it stand o...

All right audience, your parents have gone out for the evening and left you in our capable hands. Don’t worry, because we have a super-fun night planned for you! We’re gonna play games, make snacks, and we’ll read you a bedtime stor-huh? You’d rather we just talk your ears off all about the 2016 kinda sorta remake of Adventures in Babysitting? Well okay, just so long as you get to bed on time! Emm...

All right, all right, all right everyone! There is one heck of a battle ready to unfold in front of you. Us two killer MCs are gonna tear down not each other, but everything that the film Let It Shine is throwing at them. There’s certainly a lot of things to diss considering it is trying to an adaptation of a classic play with teen drama, be a musical, have deep religious theming, and have some hi...

Ahoy everyone! Join us up on the main deck as we discuss Tiger Cruise, a fun little movie about kids getting into trouble on board a Navy aircraft carrier. Doesn’t that sound like a fun little movie for us to cover on the Fourth of July? Well guess what, that movie doesn’t exist. Instead, this movie is really all about children confronting the September 11th Terrorist Attacks. The whole experience...

Hey, you! Quit all that monkeying around and listen to our newest episode! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Don’t expect too many amazing puns like that in this movie though. You see, The Jennie Project isn’t really about the kind of monkey-related hijinks you would expect from its premise. I know, it is very disappointing. I mean, there are plenty of messes made and silly situations our characters find...

Oooh boy everyone, strap yourselves in for this month. Your intrepid hosts really didn’t know what they were getting themselves into by watching Bad Hair Day. It’s by no means terrible, but could possibly be the most mentally challenging film that we have yet to analyze. So much is going on that we have repeatedly summon our strength to continue, and we do it all for YOU. So the least you could do...

A big woofy welcome to you all! I hope you all are ready for things to get a little hairy, as we dive into Life is Ruff. A movie all about…okay well honestly its somewhat deceiving to call it a movie. A story of a boy and his do….actually there is barely a story there at all if you think about it. Hm. Well I hope you can understand why we have a bit of a shorter episode on our hands folks, there r...

Aloha! Do you know what time it is? Island time! That’s right, this month, we’re heading to the beautiful shores of Hawaii to talk all about Rip Girls. A movie filled with surfing, self-discovery, and…real estate? Huh, that didn’t end up sounding as enticing as I thought. Plus, there really isn’t as much surfing as you’d think with that title. Although the title is really misleading actually. Also...

Wow, it’s been a minute huh? Don’t worry, no involuntary hiatuses caused by scheduling issues and technical problems can keep us down! Still, I don’t know how you all have managed to go so long without hearing from us. Your lives must have been so different…almost like you were living in another dimension??? Well have no fear! We’ve built just the thing to bring back to your original dimension (an...

Hey everyone! I know things around here have been a little out of whack lately, so I wanted to try make sure everyone understood what was going on. Basically, due to scheduling, technical, and personal challenges, we haven't been able to stay on top of our podcasting duties. Luckily, those issues seem to be clearing up and we are looking forward to getting back on track. First things first, howeve...

Hey there all you happy haunts, y’all ready to get spooky??? It’s Halloween time again, and you already know Disney Channel is all about celebrating it right. This month however, we are taking a look at one of their more underrated offerings as we join the ranks of The Scream Team (even if that’s not what they are called; don’t ask). So join us as we have a rather unique group of DCOMmentators, wh...

Wow. Five whole years of our nonsense, can you believe it? Honestly it’s been so long that if feels like even more. It kind of feels more like we’re in the future…again! That’s right, we are heading back to the far-off future of the 21st Century to catch up with our favorite space station superheroine Zenon in her very own Zequel. Come and celebrate with us as we work to focus on the good parts of...

Hmmm…do you feel that? It’s that weird vibe that’s been around for awhile. What could it be? Oh, of course. It must be award season once again! Which can only mean it’s time for the DCOM Choice Awards! A most incredible celebration, where we acknowledge everything the past year of DCOMs has had to offer. The truly thrilling highs…and the far more fun to talk about lows. So walk down the imaginary...

Sorry about the delay of game! Luckily, the DCOMedy Crew, along with new guest Spencer, are finally ready to take it to the hoop and talk about what might just be the greatest achievement in basketball cinema ever: Double Teamed. Join us as we journey to the strange and fantastical alternate reality of 1985 California, where rules don’t matter and girl’s basketball is the height of athletic entert...

Happy Halloween Everybody!! Are you ready to get spook….wait, what? It’s not Halloween? Oh good. I knew we had to take a little break from our podcast duties which pushed this episode back, but it didn’t feel like it had been that long. Well it’s not a big deal anyway. While Invisible Sister has many of the trappings of a good ole’ Halloween DCOM, it’s not really that big a part of it. It’s more a...

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello! In many ways, this episode is quite different from what I’m sure anyone could have expected. Not only is it not about the movie we originally announced for this month, but we found ourselves doing a far more in-depth analysis of a movie’s emotion and themes than we usually do for a DCOM. To our credit, however, this is seemingly simple story about a bunch of babi...

Hey there bubbly boys, gaseous girls, and those intergalactic inbetweeners; are you ready to get weird??? Not in like a super fun way or anything, sorry if that was misleading. I just meant that we are watching Stepsister From Planet Weird this month and you need to be prepared. Not for anything to do with the aliens though, honestly that’s kind of not a big deal here. Really you just need to be r...
