They also try some beverages from Steven's Point Brewing, Ballast Point Brewing & Cri...

Steve & Izzy discuss this 1995 summer blockbuster that is TEN TIMES BETTER & EIGHT YEARS EARLIER than that Pirates of the Caribbean movie or its HORRIBLE sequels.

Anway, check it out and judge for yourself......

Steve & Izzy discuss this 2004 summer blockbuster loosely based on a DC Comics villain but... let's face it, the whole movie is based on Halle Berry strutting around in bondage gear.

This week, Steve & Izzy discuss this 2001 hacker-action film that has some oddly significant conspiracies mixed into it... but all that anybody remembers is John Travolta's inexplicable facial hair & Halle Berry's tremendous tits.

Steve & Izzy discuss this 2005 movie based on an early 90's MTV TV series (back when they had music) and set in a futuristic world where "blades of grass" and "hands for feet" are taken quite literally... and Academy Award winning actresses have the most incredible mourning wardrobe. We also try some wonderful selections from Uinta Brewing, 21st Amendment & Talisman Brewing. So download, kick back...

Steve & Izzy discuss the sequel of the XTREME Secret Agent movie series that... was forced to wait a decade-plus after this entry for an end to the trilogy.

Steve & Izzy discuss this streaming movie about a horrible father who smuggles animals(Dolph Lundgren) is imprisoned... and then rejoins the movie about 40 minutes later while a Lake Placid meets Jaws on a Blair Witch budget is going on.

Steve & Izzy wish you a fantastic Thanksgiving by discussing this film about giant mutant turtles lead by a giant rat who battle an interdimensional brain bent on universal domination with the help of ninja, a rhino, a warthog & Dr. Madea.

To start things off, we look at "GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra" which loosely based on the 80's cartoon & comics... from the creators of "The Mummy" trilogy... and basically just a movie made for teenage boys through & t...

Steve & Izzy watch this "sequel" to the legendary John Carpenter slasher series... except there's no slasher... or mention of Michael Myers... or Mike Myers... or really John Carpenter except as a producer... but still, it's pretty damn amazing to watch for all the wrong reasons. Apparently the 80's were different than I remember. We'll also tell you about some wonderful beer selections from Warst...

Steve & Izzy discuss this recently rebooted sequel to the movie that started the whole found-footage genre... but really doesn't use it in the sequel... and despite being called "Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows"... there's no book of shadows... or even really witches, just bitchy wiccans. It's... really interesting at best. Also, we try an Oktoberfest Lager from Hangar 24 Brewing and a wild yeast a...

In this episode, Steve & Izzy tackle the dynamic duo... and Batgirl... and Bane's grunts... and Arnie getting paid by the pun... and whatever the hell Uma Thurman is doing in this campy portrayal of the Dark Knight that makes the 1966 version look like f**king Shakespeare.

In this episode, Steve & Izzy continue Suckass Sequel Month discussing the glorified music video compilation of "Blues Brothers 2000" while enjoying some choice local seasonal craft brew courtesy of one of our favorites, Elevation 66 Brewing, and a seasonal huckleberry selection from Laughing Dog Brewing that we bought in Utah.
