I Used To Like This One

Send us Fan Mail Our Classic Action Heroes month continues. This week, Shawn and Colin welcome back guest Frank Driscoll to discuss the Van Damme classic 'Timecop'. Anytime you deal with anything time travel related, we're gonna have questions. And boy oh boy do we. We of course discuss the splits and kicks of our lead, not to mention that glorious mullet of his. But the most import...

Send us Fan Mail To kick off our new Classic Action Heroes month, Shawn and Colin decide to take a look at possibly the worst example of Dolph Lundgren's career, the classic 80s disappointment 'Masters Of The Universe'. Honestly, we grabbed hold of this one because we were both hoping maybe we remembered it wrong. We thought that maybe 30 years of hindsight might make this some hidd...

Send us Fan Mail It's time for Shawn and Colin to ride off into the sunset on Western Month with our last cowboy flick, the sentimental comedic classic 'City Slickers'. We discuss all the important topics like cow births, dead old guys and, for some reason, way more math than usual. We talk about surprisingly powerful moments, surprisingly short animals, and surprisingly spry middle...

Send us Fan Mail Our Western Month moves from the old west to the new, when Shawn watches one of Colin's favorite movies, the human trafficking, rodeo action classic 'The Cowboy Way'. We discuss the in your face racism of one particular scene, the ease of Woody slipping into a cowboy role, Colin's rodeo days, horse cops that turn outlaw, convoluted bad guy plots, Ross from Frie...

Send us Fan Mail Yoo hoo... we'll make you famous. Western Month continues on when Shawn and Colin take a look at the gunslinging sequel 'Young Guns II". It's been over 100 episodes since we visited the first one, and we are excited to see how things have changes in Billy The Kid's world. We discuss Regulators old and new, comparisons to the real legend, the banger song we...

Send us Fan Mail It's Western Month! Colin is back and we're hitting the trails to watch John Candy's OTHER Posthumously Released movie, the western comedy 'Wagons East!'. We knock another  movie off the list for Colin who continues his quest to infuse more John Candy into his life. And another chance to see more of the other John... John C. McGinley who may be the biggest...

Send us Fan Mail What do you do when it turns out that one of your precious childhood movies now stars a monster of a human being? That's what we find out this week when Shawn and his son Kris, take a look at our final Daddy Issues movie, the 1990 family classic 'Ghost Dad'. We do our very best to try to separate art and artist this week as we navigate this Bill Cosby romp. And afte...

Send us Fan Mail This week for Daddy Issues month, Shawn and his son Kris take a look at a father willing to commit fraud in order to keep his kid, in the 90s classic 'Big Daddy'. We haven't done a whole lot of Adam Sandler flicks up to this point so we felt it was time to watch a sentimental one. A vaguely racist Schneider character, and inexplicably hot love interest and a whole l...

Send us Fan Mail Daddy Issues Month continues and Kris Wells is back to co-host with Shawn when we explore the difficulty of having a megalomaniacal father with the classic 'Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me'.  This is one of Kris's all-time favorite franchises, so we take a look at why and whether it should be. We get off on tangents, gush over certain characters, explore inter...

Send us Fan Mail In an attempt at some father/son bonding, Shawn has given both his usual co-hosts a month off. In their place, Shawn's son, and past guest Kris Wells, steps into the role as we dive into some movie featuring Daddy Issues. And what better to scar a child than witnessing your parents murdered in front of you like our heroes in this week's film 'Batman Forever'. T...

Send us Fan Mail It's time for our Strange Imports Month vacation to come to an end.  Shawn and Aaron have one final stop in France, where it's about to get really weird with 'The City Of Lost Children'.  I'll be honest... There's a good chance you've never heard of or seen this movie. It's very niche. Not only is it foreign, but it's also just a very s...

Send us Fan Mail Our world trip Strange Imports Month continues. Shawn and Aaron go from Japan to Australia, because it's time for an Outback roadtrip. The original drag race, the 90s Pride-filled, long-titled cult classic 'The Adventures Of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert'. 3 legendary actors and one lavender colored bus, with an epic soundtrack and fabulous outfits... need I say mo...

Send us Fan Mail Our Strange Imports Month continues. This week, Shawn and Aaron travel from South Africa to Japan to take a look at a Superhero story with Power Rangers flair, the Japanese action flick 'Zebraman'. If you are looking at this episode and wondering "What the hell is Zebraman?!?" you NEED to check this movie out. I mean it! This is one of those episodes where we a...

Send us Fan Mail Shawn and Aaron are traveling the world together through cinema with our Strange Imports month. Our first stop takes us to South Africa for the coke bottle cult classic 'The Gods Must Be Crazy'. The humor is intelligent at times but overall slapstick, until it gets a little too real. Oh, and it's a touch racist. Who would've thunk it with a movie made in the he...

Send us Fan Mail Our March Madness month comes to an end. To say goodbye, Shawn and Aaron have decided to take a look at the 1989 field trip comedy 'The Dream Team'. This film, that may make you say "Oh yeah... that one...", was a staple of Shawn's childhood for some reason. But if you don't remember this one, Dream Team is the perfect way to sum up this hilarious cas...

Send us Fan Mail March Madness rolls on and Shawn is joined by Official Substitute Co-host Aaron Knowles to discuss an oldie, but a goodie, the 1990 comedy 'Crazy People'. Okay... real talk here... I'm gonna level with you. It's just us here... look... I never do this, because obviously I want you to listen to the episode and I hate to spoil our impression of it... but Aaron an...

Send us Fan Mail It's March Madness! Are we talking basketball? Not even a little. But we are tagging in a substitute for the month...  While Colin takes some time off for another performance, Official Substitute Co-host Aaron Knowles is back, so he and Shawn can discuss that backwards, psychological thriller that Finding Dory clearly ripped off, the 2001 classic 'Memento'. We talk...

Send us Fan Mail It's been a helluva Meguary, but all good things must come to an end. Bringing the month home, Shawn and Colin are sitting down to watch something that is less rom-com, than it is sci-com, as we take on the classic 'Innerspace'. Our heroine for the month gets pushed aside into a supporting role in this one as we look at the wacky antics of Martin Short, the charming...

Send us Fan Mail Meguary rolls on, and this week Shawn and Colin take on the granddaddy of them all, the 1989 rom-com classic 'When Harry Met Sally'. We'll have what she's having, what he's having... We'll have what EVERYBODY is having with this classic of classics. We discuss obnoxious habits, drop the mic moments, how it compares to othe Meg Ryan we've watched,...

Send us Fan Mail Meguary rolls on, and as we enter the most romantic part of the month, it's time for Shawn and Colin to look at one of the most romantic films of all time, the 1993 classic 'Sleepless In Seattle'. For a movie with Seattle in the title, its amazing how much of it has nothing to do with Seattle. We discuss that and many other things like the stalker side of things, th...

Send us Fan Mail Meguary has arrived! Shawn and Colin dive into our first film for the month from America's Rom-Com sweetheart,  Meg Ryan, the angelic classic 'City Of Angels'. We talk about Nic Cage at his cagey-est, the legendary soundtrack, poor choices to make while cycling, the importance of stocking pears, the physics of angel-ing and so much more. Everybody loves Meg... is Se...

Send us Fan Mail Hunker down for the siege because this week, Shawn and Colin take a look at the Toy Story gone awry.  the 1998 pseudo-war flick 'Small Soldiers'. Our final posthumously released movie celebrates the life of the great Phil Hartman in his final performance. We talk improbable love interests, impressive special effects, strong movie comparisons, major logic holes, our perso...

Send us Fan Mail This week, Shawn and Colin are inviting a first-time American guest Chris Goffredo to discuss all things Canada, when we dive into the satirical comedy classic 'Canadian Bacon'. Our third posthumously movie looks at the movie people don't automatically associate as star John Candy's last film. We get it... you may not have even heard of this movie. But as Canad...

Send us Fan Mail As our 'Wish You Were Here In The New Year' month continues, Shawn and Colin take a look back at a movie released after TWO stars of the film passed away. The 1990 animated classic 'Jetsons: The Movie'. You know who the Jetsons are, have you seen the feature film? You know... the one with pop star Tiffany as Judy Jetson? We get into that and all things Jetsons,...
