Hey James, Watch This!

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Nine: Tracers (2015) James wasn't satisfied with last week's parkour offering, so the boys have to watch more parkour. Fortunately we have the mighty squint of Taylor Lautner to lead us this week. What's better than an organized crime ring? A parkour-themed organized crime ring! Perhaps this will satisfy James so we can stop watching people needlessl...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Eight: Freerunner  (2011) James wanted a movie about parkour. As it turns out, there are lots of movies about parkour! As it also turns out, Frye has continued his long-standing tradition of choosing a real winner. Thrill to the tale of billionaires betting small fortunes on the outcome of an especially hoppy footrace around a city. Will the boys be able to slip on...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Seven: Tolkien (2019) We're still not doing Victorian England. This week it's a bunch of schoolboys and Edwardian England. One of these schoolboys might've grown up to become one of the most beloved and influential authors of the English language, but you're going to watch him throughout his youthful shenanigans. Nicholas Hoult returns as everyo...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Six: The Current War (2017) It's a point of pride, friends. If we're tasked with period pieces, we're definitely not doing Victorian England. Perhaps that's to our detriment. This week we're talking about the late 1800s in the good ol' USA when rich white men threw electricity at other rich white men. This is Edison vs Westinghouse vs...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Five: The Dinosaur Project (2012) James wasn't happy with the dinosaurs that Jurassic Hunt had to offer, so maybe he'll be happier with this found-footage flick direct from the UK. We never would've believed that one could cram so much cryptozoology into one movie, but this picture proved how mistaken we were. The SFX budget is also higher than last...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Four: Jurassic Hunt (2021) An intrepid listener out there requested dinosaurs, and it just so happens that James loves dinosaurs! This movie is contractually obligated to tell you that it isn't affiliated with the Jurassic Park / Jurassic World franchise at all, but that won't stop it from heavily implying otherwise. Marvel at an SFX budget that's hi...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Three: They Call Me Jeeg (2015) Lo chiamavano Jeeg Robot James wants more obscure superheroes? Well, then it's off to Italy! James gets to find out everything there is to know about the best Italian superhero that's a tribute to a Japanese manga/anime. Are grounded superhero stories better? Is this story even grounded? Do we need another superhero movie?...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-Two: Hentai Kamen (2013) HK 変態仮面 Obscure superheroes? Don't mind if we do! James gets to learn all about the most perverted superhero this side of a mankini. It's not the most surprising thing that this panty-faced movie comes from Japan, and we'll find out why. It also doesn't hurt that Ryohei Suzuki is easy on the eyes.  Logo design by: ht...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy-One: Greed (2019) James wanted satire, so James gets satire.  The boys find themselves dealing with the Brits again -- specifically Steve Coogan, David Mitchell, Dinita Gohil, and director Michael Winterbottom. Does power corrupt? Is money the root of all evil? It's a hard time for satire, but this movie tries its best. Logo design by: https://www.fiverr.com/i...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Seventy: Survivor (2015) Happy 2022! We're just as surprised as you are that we've made it this far. This is a long one, because there's a lot of unnecessary movie to discuss. The boys are off to London to ring in the new year with Pierce Brosnan, Milla Jovovich, Roger Rees, and director James McTeigue. It's called Survivor , but we have no idea why. We...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Seven: Sint (2010) Saint Saint Nick For our final regular episode of 2021, we're off to the Netherlands to deal with Sinterklaas. Along the way we'll tackle Black Pete, blackface, the stupidity of Columbus, and the best darn Santa-as-a-demon-zombie movie we've seen this year. Stay tuned after the episode to hear David Sedaris read "Six to Eight Bl...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Six: Christmas Icetastrophe (2014) We've got even more hot chocolate-scented candles here at HJWT, and we're not so wholesome this time. We're not entirely sure whether it's Christmas Icetastrophe or just Icetastrophe . We're not entirely sure the creators are either. Learn all about meteors, misers, and the makings of a Christmas movie. Logo...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Five: Pottersville (2017) It's the holiday season here at HJWT and we've gone entirely too wholesome. It's Michael Shannon, it's Ron Perlman, it's Ian McShane, it's Christina Hendricks, it's Judy Greer, and it's Pottersville . James doesn't know it yet, but this movie has a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. We also have an epic end t...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Four: The Gentlemen (2019) Deception, Duplicity, and Double-Dealing! The theme this week was movie betrayals, so the boys return to London to say hi to our old friend Guy Ritchie. He's bringing his crew of usual suspects and throwing Matthew McConaughey and Colin Farrell into the mix. Untitled.txt grows ever wilder.  Logo design by: https://www.fiverr.com/ideahi...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Three: The Last Knight (2017) Последний богатырь The Last Warrior Poslyedniy bogatyr The Last Bogatyr The boys are off to Russia this week for a dose of magic, folklore, fairy tales, and Russian Disney. Russ pulled a fast one because he knew James was the biggest fan of Slavic folklore.  A tight, tight race on untitled.txt continues.  A Brief History of Russian Folkl...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-Two: Crank: High Voltage (2009) Twist villains? Don't mind if we do! On this episode the boys crown Jason Statham as the patron saint of this podcast with his sequel to the classic Crank . The man has brought us some of the most unnecessary movies, and he's damn sure not going to disappoint this time.  Logo design by: https://www.fiverr.com/ideahits Intro v...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty-One: Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning (2021) るろうに剣心 最終章 The Beginning It's too early for the holiday movies, so this week the boys are dealing with protagonists who switch sides. Time to dust off the ol' live-action anime adaptations as we follow everyone's favorite murder tornado Kenshin Himura as he transforms from the Battōsai into the pacifi...

Send us Fan Mail Episode Sixty -- Ma (2019) Well -- that's it for Spoopy Season. This week is the last chance for the boys to convince James, so we conclude the scares with Ma. If Octavia Spencer can't get James to watch this movie, it's safe to say Halloween will be ruined. BOO!

Send us Fan Mail Episode Fifty-Nine -- What Lies Below (2020) We're back to our regular format and SPOOPY season continues with horror / mystery movies.

Send us Fan Mail Episode Fifty-Six -- Galaxy of Horrors (2017) One and all, it is SPOOPY season, so the boys are kicking the month of October off with horror movies not set on Earth. This is also the first horror anthology movie we've had on this pod-kisst. So would you kindly follow us into all our darkest timelines?

Send us Fan Mail Episode Fifty-Five -- OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2006) OSS 117 : Le Caire, nid d'espions James wanted running gags, so James gets running gags. This week it's a French spy film spoof. Come see Jean Dujardin, Bérénice Bejo, and Michel Hazanavicius a full five years before they won precisely every Oscar for The Artist (2011). There's also a terrible history lesson...
