A shorter, more simple episode.  Pretty fun, with a couple throwbacks to the early episodes in the podcast.  A good one if you want to introduce someone to the podcast. A quick note here, after this is our "season break".  We will have extras episodes on our normal schedule that are kind of long though.  So there will still be content on our regular schedule.  The next one...

Finally some non anime stuff.  We had to do this in 2022 at some point.  Soylent Green vs Zardoz.  Everyone knows the ending of Soylent Green, but in case you don't, you should see it first.  As for Zardoz... If you've seen an image of Sean Connery in a weird, red, barely there costume then you have seen an image of this.  It is a pretty fun episode. Contact us at rentalst...

Here we are in the last episode of Ani-MAY-Pril (rest assured, the next episode has nothing to do with anime.) and this time we are doing two Manga properties adapted into a live action medium.  Riki Oh: The Story of Ricky is a well known piece of ultra violent sleaze.  City Hunter is... a Jackie Chan film.  Which one comes out victorious? Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com f...

The much talked about episode of Anim-MAY-Pril is here.  Akira vs Ghost in the Shell.  Two of the votes were decided going in so Paul gets to decide in the end.  Rodney did a lot of research here and it is crazy long.  We are very sorry for this.  So I chose not to put the "ad" in.  At least you don't have to listen to that. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com f...

This is our first episode of Ani-MAY-Pril.  We have two very popular Miyazaki classics go head to head.  Which one is best?  Well at least we decided for us anyway. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions,  comments, even  requests for an episode.  We would love to hear from  you. Find us on twitter @RentalRumble,  https://www.facebook.c...

This is an extras episode.  We discuss what game console we would choose if we could only pick one.  All three of us chose something different.  It's a pretty fun topic.  Let us know what you would pick. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments, even  requests for an episode.  We would love to hear from you.  Find us on twitter @Rent...

Happy March.  Here we are with another horror episode (finally) where we discuss which of these two is best.  Leprechaun 2 vs Leprechaun 3.  I'm sure it is a hotly debated match up so don't get too riled up. Quick update. Josh was right. The Leprechaun with Hornswaggle was Origins. So Returns is the one I have not seen. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions,  comments, even reque...

This is an extras episode where we discuss the Best picture nominations for the 2021 Oscars (I think I say 2022 a couple times... because that is the year right now.)  Anyway I talk with the Josh and Paul about them, ask if they have seen them, then after a brief description see if it was something they even thought sounded interesting.  We also go backwards through the list of winners f...

We have an episode about 2 films that are High School Reunion Comedies.  This continues the trend of clips for our podcast here.  It is also a pretty excellent one.  Both of these movies are among a short list of comedies Rodney actually likes, so it was a hard decision for him.  Quick Update, For some reason there are weird pauses in this episode.  I noticed after uploadi...

We are taking you out to the ball game today with two sports films (kind of).  Shaolin Soccer vs Battlefield Baseball.  Absurd Chinese comedy vs Absurd Japanese Comedy.  One has kung fu bun making, and the other has zombies sort of. The Lord Slug clips come courtesy of the Big Green Dub... your welcome.. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions,   comments, even requests for an epis...

So this is an extras episode of music we listened to during our teens or irresponsible years, that we still like today.  It is mostly a weird nostalgia episode for an era where popular music was Nu Metal and Pop Punk.  So that is what you are getting here.  We will have a regularly scheduled episode at our regularly scheduled date.  That one is Shaolin Soccer vs Battlefield Bas...

2 Films Enter, 1 Film Leaves.  That is the rules of our fight club here at Rental Store Rumble.  This time we are doing 2 films with characters who lose their grip on reality.  Fight Club vs American Psycho.  This was also recorded before Meat Loaf passed away, so I only mention this right at the beginning.  I am very happy with this episode and it was fun to record for al...

The second episode of our James Bond January series.  We take Casino Royale 2006 and put it against Casino Royale 1967.  If you haven't seen the 1967 version, it is pretty wild.  Don't let that stop you from listening to the episode however, because nothing we say could really be a spoiler as it is too crazy to truly comprehend. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for question...

Here we are with James Bond January, and our first episode is Goldfinger vs The Spy Who Loved Me.  The 3rd entry for both Sean Connery and Roger Moore in the James Bond franchise.  This one is kinda long, but worth it. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments, even requests for an episode.  We would love to hear from you. Find us on twitter @RentalRumbl...

This one is a quick review of a classic 1921 New Year's themed silent film that of course turned 100 last year.  I thought I would record an audio version as I also did a written one.  This is just Rodney talking about one movie.  It's more like an extra and not a normal episode. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments, even requests for an episode. &n...

Here it is, our New Year's Special.  This is a Battle Royale of all the movies we did this year in 2021.  We put them against each other and decide which one comes out on top.  Both the Winners and Losers are here.  It is ranty and has a couple of weird editing segments.  This is because we were doing this slightly drunk.  That and we sometimes took breaks.  Anyw...

Merry Holidays.  Here we are with our first ever Christmas Episode.  We take two of the most famous non traditional Christmas Movies and put them in the Thunderdome together to see which one will come out victorious.  In the first segment we played with the format a little and I think it is a little awkward, but let us know what you think.  However, it is fun to listen to so ho...

Two classic Rankin/Bass animated films go head to head on this episode.  Both movies are great so it is a hard decision episode.  If you haven't seen these two yet and love fantasy movies, I highly recommend checking them out.  Anyway Unicorns vs Dragons. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments,         even requests...

Another request episode, this time from Nathan.  It was one where we are all not really fans of the movies.  So I recorded a little thing at the beginning to say something positive.  Despite all the us not liking it, we are still pretty light hearted and it is fun to listen to. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments,       &nb...

This is a sort of update to our episode where we discuss what games we planned on playing for Halloween.  That one was pretty fun.  This one is entertaining because it is short, and flies off the rails pretty regularly.  As usual, this extra is brought to you by me with no commercials.  Enjoy.

This one is a request episode from Dustin.  Many people are familiar with The Wizard and that it is sometimes spoken about alongside Cloak and Dagger.  Two films about kids with broken families who are into video games.  But which one did we like better?  If you have a request of some kind, let us know. Contact us at rentalstorerumble@gmail.com for questions, comments,  &n...

This is it.  This is our special OTHER Halloween episode.  Lots of stuff for October, and that's because we love Halloween.  Here we talk about and directly compare almost scene for scene Night of the Living Dead 1968 with its remake Night of the Living Dead 1990 (Yes I know there are other remakes.  Let's just pretend they didn't happen.)  This one is pretty fun and has a...

Oh yes, I have been waiting to do these.  This is our official Halloween episode (there is another one coming.)  This one however is two movies about ghosts set around Halloween itself.  Perfect for the season.  Both of these are also... family friendly to a certain degree, but don't sleep on these ones.  I recommend both, but you'll have to listen to the episode to see wh...

Here we go with our first episode of the Halloween time.  Twilight Zone the Movie vs Tales from the Darkside the Movie.  We compare segments up against each other in a slightly confusing format but you'll catch on.  Of course we will still tell you which one is best.  It is a true Halloween Treat and you don't even need Mickey+ or whatever it's called.  Also it is importan...

Not a normal episode, but the first thing we are releasing for Octoberween.  Just us talking about what we plan on playing this season.  Look forward to our actual episode next week as well.  We have some Spooky horror themed episodes for you. A quick clarification on something I said about social media during the end of the episode.  I do in fact pay heavy attention to anyone...
