Send us Fan Mail Our Too Cool For School month kicks off with one more episode co-hosted by Aaron Knowles, as he joins Shawn in discussing the surreal 80s romcom 'Better Off Dead'.

We talk skiing, scumbags, new re...

Send us Fan Mail As we move ahead in Foxvember, Shawn and Colin decide to take a look at the serious side of our hero with the based on true events Vietnam war classic 'Casualties Of War'.

Where does this one stand in the franchise? What...

Send us Fan Mail For our next Halloween movie, Shawn and Colin aren't watching something they're familiar with, but instead something weird brought forth by guest David Owen, the 80s classic 'Warlock'. Before watching, we didn't know what we were in for, and frankly after watching, we're still a little confused. This is a classic "if you know, you know" situ...

Send us Fan Mail Our Sci-Fi Summer draws to a close and we decided to not take it very seriously, at all. This week, Shawn and Colin welcome back guest Michael Ross, to discuss the comedy spoof classic 'Spaceballs'.

Send us Fan Mail We are kicking off our Sci-Fi Summer! First up, Shawn and Colin sit down to watch 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie'.

He discusses so many things Power Rangers, his history, comparisons to the series... this is his jam. What did Shawn think? T...

Send us Fan Mail Shawn and Colin are wrapping up Classic Action Heroes month by bringing back guest Luke Bartosik, a man who seemed destined for this episode his entire life, when we watch the classic 'Under Siege'.
