The Confused Breakfast

This podcast has officially gone from suck to blow. Mel Brooks’ 1987 space adventure parody takes a not so subtle jab at some of the biggest titles in the genre. Too bad about the merchandising… So close down the 3 ring circus, secure all the animals in the zoo, and prepare for ludicrous speed! We’re about to go plaid through the 4th wall right NOW now! May the Schwartz be with you! •0:00:00-  Int...

WOLVERINES!!!!!! Gear up jump in the truck and let’s head to the mountains! Red Dawn has broken and thank god some ragtag teens are here to stop it! Does the very first pg-13 movie hold up? Will what was once considered one of the most violent movies at the time, still shock us all the same way? Should you really drink blood straight from the deer? All we know is, “the chair is against the wall” a...

Sometimes theres man. Not a hero, but a man. Ah F**k it dude. Let’s go bowling. The chronicled tale of the Dude is both pointless and imperative. A movie wrapped in its own feelings more than it’s own story. So let’s pack a ringer with our whites, mix up another Caucasian, and bash up a corvette after we botched a random handoff. Turn off the Eagles and crank the Creedence tapes and relax while we...

Holy Schnikes, they finally gave Chris Farley a lead role in a movie and he delivered a performance of a lifetime.   Tommy Boy might be one of the most quoted movies in history and showed us signs of Farley’s deeper brilliance.  Unfortunately he passed away 2 years later.  What do you say we grab our clip-on ties, stock our office refrigerators with be— errrr soda, and check the specs on the endli...

Can you fly you sucker?? Some how comedy, sci-fi, and horror came together to give us what might be one the most iconic performances of Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, and the rest of the surrounding cast. These crawly things make for one wild ride in the bustling metropolis of Perfection. One things for sure.. this one’s not dumb. •0:00:00-  Introductions/Reviews/Chats •0:05:15 - Memories of first viewin...

In talking about what movies to review next, we started noticing that there were a few instances where one of the hosts felt passionate about a particular movie from childhood, and the other 2 hosts had never seen it.  So we came up with a new idea for an episode.  We will be reviewing a classic movie from 2 different perspectives. First, from the perspective of someone who has seen the movie coun...

SPOILERS!  Confused breakfast is the very FIRST podcast to review this amazing new movie!!!!   Just kidding, we might actually be the last podcast to talk it but who cares.  Since we are fresh off of our review of 1989's Batman, we figured that we should make a trip to the theatre together to experience the newest edition to the Batman film story.   Is it as good as people are saying?  Was it too...

Say a prayer and cock your silenced pistols. The Boondock Saints are marchin’ in! The 1999 Troy Duffy cult classic will take us through all the shoot outs and ritual killing of bad guys. We got our pea coats and shades. So pull up a stool and grab a beer while we break down the symbology here. Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day!  •0:00:00-  Introductions/Reviews/Chats •0:05:45 - Memories of fir...

Hi, My name is Batman and I’ve never danced with the devil in the pale moon light. What started as a comical idea turned to a burtonized dark and strange tale on one of the most recognized super heroes in the world. With a mix and match casting, iconic score, and script that was written while shooting, does Batman, the highest grossing film of 1989, still hold up? Is Keaton the greatest Batman? Is...

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Time to pack up the family and forcefully make them sit through a Colorado winter nightmare in a haunted hotel so you can try to not fail at writing. The Shining will show us the darker side of getting snowed in. It’s not all cuddles and cocoa. Heeeeeere’s JOHNNY!

Don’t forget your flippy floppies! It’s a warm one out there! Oh wait, wrong movie, kinda. 50 first dates takes a fun twist on a familiar plot with a character reliving the same day over and over and over again. But everyone else is there to help her along, kind of. This feels a little weird to be honest.. just lying to a loved one day after day after coercing lots of other women and friends.. alo...

Don’t forget your booties, it’s cold out there! It’s GROUNDHOG DAY and you only got one day to live, over and over and over again. What would do? What would you do different? Who would you do? Who would you do different? Why would you do.. well you get it. It’s time to flirt with the locals, eat everything we can and finish with a cold shower… or driving the truck off a cliff. •0:00:00-  Introduct...

You’ll shoot your eye out! The movie that makes 24 hours seem like a single watch. A Christmas Story has been revered as the quintessential holiday film while others call it over rated and pandering. This movie still taught us about licking cold poles, major awards, changing tires, haggling, a football is a terrible Christmas gift, where to eat on Christmas in case of emergency, and the importance...

It’s time to put up the exterior illumination, grease up the sleds, and empty the sh***er. Christmas Vacation is maybe more of a staycation, but who needs travel when you can have the jolliest bunch of assholes this side of the nut house come right to your front door.  •0:00:00-  Introductions/Reviews/Chats •0:05:30- Pertinent movie details •0:09:00- Memories of first viewing •0:12:00  - Critical...

Anybody want a peanut? The Princess Bride tell the tale of a grandpa telling his grandson the tale of of one of the greatest love stories of all time. Although plenty may retort, INCONCEIVABLE, at such an idea. We learned so much from this movie. Piracy is a great line of work, true love can not be stopped, and miracles can be bought.. you asked for it, and we simply responded, “as you wish”. •0:0...
