State of Play is a journalism thriller starring Russell Crowe and Ben Affleck. Eric liked it a lot more before discussing it with his brothers but there is still plenty to recommend it. And NO SPOILERS in this episode. They also discuss the opening credit sequence of Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Eye in the Sky, and The Americans. Then Drew recounts a fowl memory. References: Kolchak: The Night Stal...

Guy Ritchie's The Man from UNCLE stars Superman, the Lone Ranger, and the next Lora Croft. What's not to love?

(TV series) The Wild Wild West (TV series) Mission: Impossible (TV series) David McCallum Black Sheep Squadron (TV se...

The Living Daylights – Timothy Dalton's first Bond. Dalton does fine but the plot is nothing new. It lets all the bros down. Fake Script.

The supporting cast is also formidable: Stockard Channing, James Garner, Reese Witherspoon, Live Schreiber, Giancarlo Esposito, Margo Martindale, John Spencer, and M. Emmet Walsh. Note: This Eric and Drew only episode was recorded in December 2015 and inserted into the calendar this week...

North By Northwest is an enduring classic. It leads to a wide range of tangents including: Rich Little, director cameos, panic attacks and agoraphobia, and the evil that is the Dave Matthews Band.

Roger Moore's last Bond.   Bro J's fave, Drew thinks it lets Roger down, but Eric is neither shaken nor stirred.  They all love Roger Moore though.

The untimely death of Bill Paxton caused the Bros to tackle U-571, a light-weight WWII submarine movie. The film isn't great but the resulting discussion was fun.

Housekeeping begins at 1:00:00 , during which they discuss: 1973's The E...

The Numbers Station has huge logic holes but it also has John Cusack and Richard Brake so turn off your brain and enjoy. This is a Brothers E and J only ep while Drew is in the field.

In the age of infotainment and President Trump, a film like Network might not seem so satirical but in 1976 it was the darkest of satires and a damning criticism of "modern" journalism.   It's one of Brother E's favorite films but Brother J thought it didn't translate to a modern audience.   We have a fun discussion about media luminaries such as: Glenn Beck, Christine O'Donnell, Bill Maher, Dan S...

Grosse Pointe Blank is full of great actors quipping fun lines amidst solid action sequences set to late 80's music. What's not to love? Correction: Eric mentions that the director, George Armitage, also directed 1971's "Private Duty Nurses," which Eric described as a "Nudie Cutie" movie. Upon further review it is probably better described as a "Sexploitation" movie. In housekeeping we discuss Rog...
