It's been too many years since I've last watched " Superman: The Movie " - probably the first memory I have of anything having to do with Superman. It's between that and Super Friends, but for the sake of this podcast - let's go with the movie. I had a ton of fun revisiting this movie on HBO Max, and I think this needs to be a yearly tradition movie - maybe at like Thanksgi...

Back in the saddle again, baybay! I told you I'd start watching all the Superman feature films to grace the big screen - it just took me a bit longer to get there. Today I finally rewatched the first time any DC Superhero was in the theater in a feature length movie (apparently 58 minutes counts) when I saw the kinda silly, kinda boring, " Superman and the Mole-Men " starring George Re...

31 days of watching and podcast about Back to the Future is now complete. Marchy McFly is officially over.....for now. Tonight I try, while out for a walk, to give you scene by scene retelling of this time traveling tale. I know I don't get it all right, but I think I come pretty close. Thanks for sticking with the show all month, I really appreciate it. This one is for my father-in-law. My Ge...

Greetings from another day in sunny Florida. It's day 30. The final day before the final day! Guess what I did this morning? I woke up early and...wait for it...watched Back to the Future for the 30th time in 30 days! I recorded today's show from The Garden of Hope and Courage outside the hospital taking care of my father-in-law. They were only allowing two people in so I had some time to...

Day 29! Coming to you from Florida, where old men walk out of Dunkin Donuts without masks and little tiny flames of fire burn in my eyes! But we landed safely yesterday and got to see my wife's dad before visiting hours ended. Went back and spent some time today (and brought him a Frosty from Wendy's). But of course in the morning - while just awaking from my slumber, sleep still in my stu...

Day 28! Coming to you LIVE On location from Logan International Airport in Boston, MA. I haven't been in Boston for over a year and there isn't enough hand sanitizer to make me feel fully comfortable but I'm doing my best! See you in Florida!

Day 27! Can you believe it! Here we are on the final Saturday of Marchy McFly - and the final Marchy McFly recorded at the home studio. Find out more about the real life adventures of your host - and then listen to him do what he likes to do the most - talk about his favorite movie, Back to the Future...

Day 26! The final Friday of Marchy McFly! I had some plans for tonight’s episode that had to be scrapped due to lack of time (how dare real life get in the way of a podcast) but hopefully I can talk about it soon. I did get a voicemail from some anonymous listener who sounds vaguely familiar – and no it’s not me this time I swear!

Are you telling me that it's day 25!? Damn, I only 6 more days left! And tonight I thought it would be fun to look at those scenes that were left on the cutting room floor - the Back to the Future deleted scenes! I also mention the podcast "I Read Movies" that talks about the differences between the movies you love and the novelizations that were created from them. Check out the Back t...

Day 24! Can you believe it? Right? Me neither! On today's episode I talk about - you guessed it - Frank Stallone! Wait, I mean BACK TO THE FUTURE! And by happy accident I stumbled upon a 2015 Fandango article that you should definitely check out . After today, only one week left. Great Scott!!

Day 23! We're almost on the final week of Marchy McFly! Tonight I am joined by my friend Jason - a man I've been friends with for almost 27 years! The man I've played the most Sega Genesis Mortal Kombat with! A groomsman at my wedding! And my wife's wedding too! And a huge fan of Back to the Future!

DAY 22! 22 days of watching Back to the Future and 22 days of talking about Back to the Future!!! I thought it would be fun to look at a few negative reviews from Rotten Tomatoes - and I got a weird phone call.

Can you believe that after today there are only 10 days left in Marchy McFly!? It really does feel like I just started this project and now we're 2/3 of the way done! Today, I go over a few notes, read through a cool article from Curbed about filming locations , and sing in my back yard. Back to the Future FOREVER!

Day 20! Tonight I was joined by my " Fine Movies. Fine Spirits " co-host, and previous JAWGUST guest, Chris Morris to talk - what else? BACK TO THE FUTURE!

Today, on this 19th day of Marchy McFly, I received a very special message from a very special mayor of Hill Valley all thanks to my good (and generous) friend and frequent guest of the show, Eric! And just like that I blame everything on Mayor Red Thomas!

We did it! We reached the "end" (for now) of Big Screen Batman, where today I watched the FOUR HOUR epic retelling of Justice League in 2021's " Zack Snyder's Justice League " on HBO Max. Spoiler Alert: I enjoyed myself for four hours today. And then for another 50 minutes talking about it!

Day Eighteen! This second half already feels like it's going by faster than the first half. Before you know it, we'll be in the 20s and on the final stretch! Today I thought it would be fun to scan the IMDB trivia of the movie , but the page is SO long that I stopped and saved the rest for future episodes. Only 13 to go! Where does the time go?

Happy St. Patrick's Day you Irish Bugs! Tonight I am joined by my long time friend Eric, who I've known since high school and who actually lives a stone's throw away from me today! We...sorta talk about Back to the Future. And there's a wig involved. Perfect for an audio podcast! Whatever - this still counts! SEVENTEEN DAYS DONE!

So many Jokers, so little time. Today I watched the LAST movie to (sorta) feature Batman on the big screen when I watched 2019's JOKER for the first time since seeing in the theater. Technically there are no more Batman movies to watch....Until tomorrow. Oh crap, that's not on the big screen. Oh well, I make the rules.

We've officially passed the halfway point of Marchy McFly! Can you believe there are only 15 episodes left after this? Fifteen more viewings left? Before you know it there will only be Fourteen left. Golly, where does the time go?

Everything is still pretty awesome with The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part , even if it's essentially more of the same. More of the same of a great thing can still be very good. A lot of fun, still great to look at it. And of course - LEGO BATMAN was there!

Beware the Ides of Marchy McFly! We're just about at the half way point of our adventure and today I talk more about a show than our favorite movie. Today, a brand new streaming mini-series premiered on Discovery+ called " Expedition: Back To the Future ." Spoiler alert: I loved it. I only watched the first episode, but it was a must see for any BTTF superfan!

Here we are at the official end of week 2 of Marchy McFly! Two weeks down - two and a half weeks to go. Tonight I talk about another Mental Floss article and also a fun post about the DeLorean . Plus a whole lot more! Or at least...more. Happy Sunday!

He said it! He said the movie title! It IS in fact Saturday Night and once again I watched that Back to the Future movie. 13 days down 18 days to go. If you think I'm stretching now, wait until a week from now! In this episode I talk about an idea I had years ago that I hadn't planned on talking about until that very moment. I also go through more notes and talk about two cool create thing...

We're less than a week away from what I am calling the REAL version of this movie that I watched again last night for the first time since seeing it in the theater . Even though there were still some things I enjoyed about it, I hope in the future, the 2017 Justice League will be forgotten for the epic adventure Zack Snyder is promising to bring us on next Thursday! And I'll be back here t...
