More Movies Please!

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are joined by special guest, Jenny Scott, to discuss child abandonment, home invasion, and life threatening booby traps in the 1990 film from Chris Columbus, Home Alone. One thing I’m wondering is if this movie could happen today, or is it an accident that could only be possible before the advent of cell phones and the internet? My sneakin...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are joined by Sean’s wonderful and long-time friend, Lee! We’re all continuing to bring as much holiday cheer as we possibly can by chatting about the 2020 relationship comedy/drama from Clea DuVall, Happiest Season. When I say “drama,” I mean drama. This is the sort of holiday family gathering that becomes legendary, the talk of the town,...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are confronting some really tough family secrets in the 2010 film from Denis Villeneuve, Incendies. Uuuuuuuugh, I had no idea this film was going to be so crushing when I suggested that it go on our episode index. I thought, Hey, it’s a Denis Villeneuve film and we’ve done pretty much everything he’s done. We should totally do this one. Ro...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are joined by extra special guest, Greg Vander Velde (of our A Low Down Dirty Shame episode fame), as we all become the prehistoric animal raging inside us all with the Brendan Steere film from 2018, The VelociPastor. Have you ever had an experience, let’s call it a “holy” experience (to stay on brand), that makes you question so much of w...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are hot on the trail of crime, corruption, and risqué filmmakers in the 2016 film from Shane Black, The Nice Guys. There’s something foul in the air, and it may just be the entire city of Los Angeles. Oh, and also murder. Private eyes Holland March and Jackson Healy are working together on the case. Not because they want to be, but more be...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are engaged in a knock ‘em out, shoot ‘em up, love ‘em all day long hitman double feature with the Patrick Hughes movies from 2017 and 2021 respectively, The Hitman’s Bodyguard and Hitman’s Bodyguard’s Wife. I have a question for the universe: did Ryan Reynolds do something to director Patrick Hughes? Did he steal some of that man’s money?...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are suiting the hell up and getting our dang groove back in the Glenn Ficarra and John Requa film from 2011, Crazy, Stupid, Love. Here’s what I would give to have Ryan Gosling take me to a Beverly Hills shopping center and give me a complete makeover: Either/both of my kidneys. Either/both of Steven’s kidneys. My entire life savings. My wo...

Send us Fan Mail In this bonus episode, Steven is swimming solo exploring the deep horrors of this underwater haunting.   Thanks to Paramount Pictures Steven was able to get an early look at the breathtaking horror film The Deep House. But don’t you worry Sean will be back this Monday to chat with Steven about a new movie, or at least what’s left of Steven after this swim.   So take a deep breath...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are riding like lightning and crashing like thunder in the 2012 film from Derek Cianfrance, The Place Beyond the Pines. Three storylines. One film. A father and son tale for the ages. Coming this Sunday… Sunday… SUNDAY! to a podcast player near you, it’s a deep and complex film about a man who robs banks to help provide for the son he neve...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are joined by extra special guest, Greg Dengler (of our Army of Darkness episode fame), to wade into the shark-filled Los Angeles water with a bunch of straight-up dinguses in the 2013 “film” from Anthony C. Ferrante, Sharknado. “Syfy joke” isn’t some clever turn of phrase we’re using to describe this thing. It’s a ridiculous experiment in...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are dealing with the sudden and murderous alien invasion they’ve got on their hands in the Joe Cornish film from 2011, Attack the Block. Have you ever seen something so otherworldly and beautiful that you can’t help but stare at it with all of your focus and attention? Perhaps it was the most remarkable sunrise you saw after the most amazi...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are re-animating dead flesh and doing a damn fine job at it if we do say so ourselves in the 1974 film from Mel Brooks, Young Frankenstein. Let’s get this out the way first: it’s Fron-ken-steen! Frankenstein was a loony old man with a worrying obsession over the dead. Get it right! Who are we kidding? There’s too much good stuff happening...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are facing our past indiscretions that are brought to the fore by a murderous hotel room in the 2007 film from Mikael Håfström, 1408. Word to the wise: if you ever happen upon a hotel in your future travels and you notice that Samuel L. Jackson is managing it (for some reason), then you listen to what he tells you. Heed his advice, damn it...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are hiding away all of our secret keys and keeping our evil doppelgängers from murdering us in the Jordan Peele film from 2019, Us. Hey folks, Evil Sean here. Wait, I’m supposed to have some sort of kooky name, right? Maybe something inspired by Roman mythology or other various theologies? Ummm, how about we go with Jove, because I’m just...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are becoming modern-day Robin Hoods and screwing over the blood-thirsty banks in the 2016 film from David Mackenzie, Hell or High Water. I really can’t undersell just how sweet it was to watch these two bank-robbing brothers get one over the bank that tried to steal their recently deceased mother’s land. Word to the wise, if you find oil o...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are ridin’ into the sunset with the most rootinest-tootinest B-movie bonus episode on this side o’ the ol’ Mississipp. Saddle up, ‘cause we’re talkin’ ‘bout Barry Sonnenfeld’s 1999 film, Wild Wild West. Wild Wild West (Yeah!) [YEAH!] Jim West, desperado [Sean Anderson, ghostly podcast voice. Nice to meet ya.] Roughrider, you don’t want nad...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are trying to figure out how a massive celestial body doesn’t just completely screw up our planet in the Mike Cahill film from 2011, Another Earth. Friends, we’ve got a doozy for you here today. Not only is there a freaking second Earth zooming up right on the planet that we all know and inhabit, but there’s a pretty messed-up romantic dra...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Stabby Steven and Sean are moving back home and dealing with some serious family issues in the 2001 film from Wes Anderson, The Royal Tenenbaums. I can’t even begin to imagine what the Thanksgiving dinners at the Tenenbaums must have been like. The holidays are a stressful time for a normal family, much less one that’s probably pictured next to the dictio...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are reliving our youthful ‘90s years with a very special guest in the 1995 film from Amy Heckerling, Clueless. We’re delighted to be joined by a new friend of the show, Corey Grosklos, a.k.a. Mr. Big Daddy. For a special guest episode, would we ever dare watch a film that didn’t provide a completely good time for all to be had? As if! Nah,...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are tearing the jungle a new one with the 1987 film from John McTiernan, Predator. If you’ve spent any time on the internet in the last half-decade or so, you’re probably more familiar with this film than you realize. That was the case with me, at least. Large portions of online language are borrowed directly from it. That bicep-flexing, h...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are gearing up with far too many guns to take on the baddest Mr. Big this side of Sex and the City in Keenan Ivory Wayans’ 1988 film, I’m Gonna Git You Sucka. Viewer (or podcast listener?) be warned: this is a straight-up spoof film. This is not the sort of high-brow comedy film that Sean was expecting, nor was it solely a drama or action...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are becoming depraved, hollow husks of our normal selves as we sell our souls to the financial devil in Oliver Stone’s film from 1987, Wall Street. Bear with us for this one, because we hardly know half of what everyone’s talking about. We’re but humble podcasting fellows. Not the sort of fast-talking, free-wheeling Wall Street goons that...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are going to land this damn plane even if it kills us in the 1980 film by Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker, Airplane! WARNING! If you don’t like hilarious puns of all sorts coming at you non-stop, then this is not the film for you. WARNING! ANOTHER WARNING! If you’re the sort of person who doesn’t like the amazing puns that thi...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are on our way to America where there are surely, definitely, um, maybe no cats in the 1986 film from Don Bluth, An American Tail. Imagine leaving your home in a freezing part of Russia because of terrorizing cats, traveling all the way to America for a better, cat-free life, and you end up finding out that there are indeed cats there, too...

Send us Fan Mail On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are falling for our first true loves… and then getting our hearts broken hard in the Cameron Crowe film from 1989, Say Anything. If you didn’t want to be Lloyd Dobbler when you were just out of high school, then I’m just going to assume that you’re a liar, liar, pants on fire. Is he a little intense about life and work? Yeah, but then agai...
