Movies We Missed

Brandon and Jane discuss the dangers of writing a tell all memoir about your best friends, how many zing 90’s movie soundtracks were, the enduring beauty of the entire cast of this film (and how we’d both risk it all for Nia Long), and the risk one takes when they agree to be best man at a wedding where they slept with the bride to be. We all make choices but that is a choice! Hosted on Acast. See...

Be our plus one for this journey through the English countryside! Debra Messing, Dermot Mulroney, and Amy Adams try their best with this 2005 rom com.

If you can figure out how that adds up, please let Brandon and Jane know! Hosted on A...

This week Brandon and Jane have a scintillating cinematic discussion about everyone’s favorite face removal film.

Join us for another one of those films that completely overestimated the capabilities of the flop...

This week is a double doozy of roommates without boundaries and movies without plausibility. Join us for our 50TH EPISODE!!!

We are up to our usual hijinks but exploring two movies instead of one!!! Twice the lau...

Brandon and Jane unpack this iconically bad movie starring America’s Jessie Spano, Elizabeth Berkley and Queer icon, Gina Gershon.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/pr...

Brandon and Jane discuss futuristic policing, the mind of Paul VerHoeven, and what it means to feed a robot. How do they digest food? More importantly, how do they get said food OUT of them? This is basically two scientists asking hard questions and holding each other’s feet to the fire. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We’re back for the third edition of The Twilight Saga where too much happens and yet, nothing happens.

Taylor Lautner’s Jacob forgets that it’s ok to wear a shirt and Peter Facinelli’s hair is a c...

Mobsters, drag queens, and Jerry Stiller oh my! This week Brandon and Jane discuss 1970’s gay bathhouse culture, LGBTQIA film history, and pussycat wigs!
