This week I want to celebrate my birthday with one of my favorite Western films, The Revenant. This movie has some of the best scenic shots and the story is told with minimal dialogue and has some of the most iconic scenes in cinema. This movie is based loosely off of Hugh Glass and his real life story of surviving a very gruesome bear attack. I truly enjoy this movie and I hope you enjoy this wee...

This week is a listener requested film as I review The Princess Bride! This film has a fantastic reputation and was even selected to be preserved by the Library of Congress. Thank you so much for the wonderful submission and I hope you enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I review a viewer recommendation! The Iron Giant is the subject of this week’s show. This was the last fully animated film that Dreamworks produced, and it is still a beautiful film. I hope you enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I rant on the 2025 film Novocaine. This movie is exactly mid and I explain how the advertising for this film kind of set it up for failure in my opinion. Although this is a shorter episode this week, it is still a fun episode. Enjoy the show!

This week I review the 2025 film Caught Stealing. This movie was advertised as a kind of humorous movie where someone ends up being at the wrong place at the wrong time, but it turns out to be way more depressing than that. Enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I discuss the 1996 horror film The Craft. I saw this movie a few times when I was younger and I remember enjoying it, but does it still hold up after all of these years? The memorable scenes definitely stuck with me and I’m glad so was able to see the film again. Enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I watched an absolutely outstanding film La La Land. It has to be one of my favorite movies that I’ve watched this year so far, but what do you think? This film has some of the best romantic storytelling and I can’t wait to share it with you. Enjoy the show!

This week I throw it back to 1995 with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie. The Power Rangers were one of my favorite shows as a kid and I remember really enjoying this movie, but does it still hold up? Enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I review the Horror/Thriller film “Weapons.” This movie has a unique story told from many perspectives and it will keep you on the edge of your seat. *If you are easily squeamish and are triggered by bodily harm, maybe sit this episode out.* Enjoy this week’s episode!

This week Megan returns to the show for her first time in 2 years as we review a film that she highly recommended, KPop Demon Hunters! This film has great music, a fantastic story, and great messages that can resonate with everyone. Thank you Megan for such a fun time! Enjoy this week’s show!

This week is a bit of a twofer. I talk about my most recent concert experience seeing Midnight Generation and how much I have enjoyed their music. The movie this week is the 2005 film Red Eye which has plenty of suspense and will keep you entertained! I hope you enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I take a look at Driving Miss Daisy. This film was the last PG rated film to win Best Picture back in 1989. Does this film still stand the test of time or has it aged poorly? Enjoy this week’s show!

This week I discuss the 2006 film She’s the Man. Staring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum, this gender swapping comedy still holds up nearly 20 years after its release! Shoutout to the viewer that recommended this episode and enjoy this week’s show!

This week is another viewer requested movie as I review Convoy. This movie isn’t Smokey and the Bandit, but it is a trucker movie that tries to relay a lot of points but it doesn’t quite stick the landing. The action and destruction scenes are cool though. Enjoy this week’s episode!

This week I review another viewer recommended film, “Starship Troopers.” This Sci-Fi action drama is outstanding and I had a lot of fun watching it, even though this movie comes with a lot of criticism. Enjoy this week’s episode!

Happy Independence Day from Shufflebox! This week we have a viewer requested film Independence Day: Resurgence. I thought it was quite fitting given the holiday weekend, but is this film as good as the first film in the franchise? I wouldn’t know I’ve never seen the original film. I hope you enjoy the show this week and be sure to have a safe holiday weekend!

June Belushi month 2025 wraps up with the 1987 film Homer & Eddie. This film is definitely different, but does it stand out enough to be a classic…..I don’t know about that. Regardless, Jim Belushi stars in this film and I watched it, so get ready for this week’s episode. We will reunite with Jim Belushi once again in 2026.

This week we discuss S1 E7 of According to Jim “Cheryl’s Old Flame.” This episode touches on parenting and broken promises, but it also teaches us that we all have our flaws. Enjoy the show as June Belushi month rolls on.

If you had an opportunity to change your life for even just a moment would you do it? This week I review Mr. Destiny as June Belushi month continues. This film mirrors others that are very similar but it is a good family film with laughs and tears. Enjoy the show!

Welcome back to Shufflebox’s annual June Belushi month celebrating the actor Jim Belushi! We start this year with Season 1 Episode 6 of According to Jim titled “The Crush.” I also provide a movie recommendation that is non Jim Belushi related. Enjoy the show this week and enjoy June Belushi month!

This week Marcello joins the show to discuss The Holy Mountain. This fever dream of a movie is known to be a deep discussion piece and many people who study film love this film…..I however, do not. Enjoy Marcello being back for this episode and enjoy the show!

This week we look at the 2014 horror movie Clown. It released in the US during the killer clown phase, but that was all a coincidence. This movie has a decent story but the pacing is what made it fall short. The cast was great and was not clowning around by any means. Enjoy the show!

Do you like movies where appliances attempt to take over the world? What about a movie where a fat guinea pig almost causes the collapse of humanity by eating cake? What about a movie where the whole sound track is the same 2 Black Eyed Peas songs over and over again? Well luck for you this movie has all of it! You couldn’t “G-Force” me to watch this film again.

This week I review the classic 1977 film Smokey and The Bandit. This movie was so much fun to watch and the car chase scenes still hold up nearly 50 years later! Enjoy the show.

This week there is no movie, just a depressing rant on one of the most abysmal sports franchises in all of Major League Baseball the Colorado Rockies. The start of their 2025 season is one of the worst in the history of the sport, but it didn’t just start this season. The history of the Rockies has been bleak for the most part, and you’ll hear all about it on this week’s show.
