The Home Video Hustle

James Bond is back! But he looks a bit different. Yes, Connery is out and Lazenby is in. Does he do any good? Well, one host in particular feels a type of way. Chris also seems to have commitment issues, Anita has been getting her game on, Brent lets his Mid-western side show and Anita is making some strange noises...

A first time watch for all three of us, thanks to my sister and her Patreon pick! For a long time, people have told me how this move predicted the future and how this is the world we live in today. I don't think it's that bad but it may not be far off! We talk a lot about comedians this week and joke stealing, Anita talks of her disdain of Alicia Keys and I make more references that date myself, e...

It's been a lomg time coming. Long time listeners know that I am a huge Punisher fan and in all these years, the only one of his film adaptations we're watched was the '89 version with Dolph Lundgren. That changes today! I get to nerd out, Anita gets to see it for the first time and Cameron shows up to hang with us for a little bit and he had been drinking beforehand. I was really excited to do th...

Bond is back and this is one that i've been looking forward to. Loved it as a kid but man, coming back to it as an adult is crazy! It's cool to see how much of this film was used for spoofing in Austin Powers as well. Things got hype this week as we had a surprise appearance from PJ, a new 007 game got announced right before this episode, Anita watched the '89 Punisher movie and gave a quick revie...

Shout out to our Patreon Andrew G. for the Patreon pick and for the reason to go back and check out a childhood favorite. Loved this as a youngin' but it's been a very long time since i've sat and watched it start to finish. Many say it's the best film in the whole series, some say it's one of the best comic book films of all time. Let's get this Hustle on and find out if the hype is still real. ....

Yeah, this isn't an official James Bond movie but we had to do it and my co-hosts may hate me now for it. Even as a huge Bond fan, this is only my second time watching this and the last time was about 15 years ago. Maybe it'll be better this time?

It's time to give an old childhood classic a re-watch. After all that drama and sappiness last week, it was time to watch something more fun and since Anita has never seen this before and Chris was really hype to break out his double feature DVD, now seems like the perfect time. Anita scoffs at my "man-ness," Chris is shooting shots all over the place, we celebrate a plantation burning to the grou...

Chris is off for one week and now we're doing Oscar bait films?!? Well, it's all thanks to random chance and I wonder if there will be a chance i'll like this, i've never seen it. If this isn't your type of film though, don't worry, we also have mini reviews for Sinners and Thunderbolts*. Oh, and there are definitely spoilers, so be warned. We hope you enjoy the show!

We are having another celebration this week but this time we are 8 years into the podcast game! Chris and I have been referencing Batman & Robin for years, so it's time to finally get it out our system and let all of the ice puns flow as much as possible. We opened up the episode to any Patrons who wanted to join and some familiar voices such as Mike Bagford and Seth Blackwell showed up but we als...

400 (Main) EPISODES BABY!!! Yessir, we are celebrating today and for the occasion, we got PJ back on the show, we have Steve and Izzy joining us and we are watching a movie that Anita, Chris and I have never seen before and not only have I never watched Road House, this is my first Patrick Swayze movie period! Will Patrick Swayze amaze me? It's time to find out. If that wasn't enough, big, BIG mov...

Mission number 4 with 007 is this week and after Goldfinger, this had a tough act to follow but James has a jetpack this time...That's used in one scene. There is a lot of action though...Underwater. Well, let's give it a shot anyway. It was also WrestleMania weekend, so we got hype for a minute, yes even Anita too. Anita also can't wait for nanomachines. Guess she never played Metal Gear Solid. W...

Well, this day had to come eventually. None of us have ever seen Showgirls and i've heard nothing but bad things. I went into it with an open mind and was shocked by what I ended up seeing. Why? Well, just hit that play button and find out. Andrew is on the mic with us this week for his birthday and I guess this was Steve's gift to him. He shares stories from his trip and even got me to go to a cl...

It's been too long since the last Bond film, it's time to change that and this is considered by most to be one of the best ones in the entire series. Admittedly, I loved this one a a kid but didn't know what the hell was going on with the plot, hopefully looking at it now as a 34-year-old, it will make more sense. Also in this episode, Anita has issues with the physics of statues, Chris reviews th...

Anita has been impatiently waiting for us to get back to the Alien series and we're finally finishing up the original Quadrilogy this week. This is a first time watch for Chris as well and many questions were asked and I even noticed a few things, I never thought about before with this film. "Why didn't they know about the acid blood?" "Why did they have three aliens in one cell?" "Why are people...

It's the final week of the Black History Month Marathon for 2025 and to wrap it up, Chris wanted to watch a certified classic of modern filmmaking. Even better, Chris has never seen this before. Even better still, Cameron was able to join us again this week and even better than that, the audio is back to normal this week. The film of course gave us a ton to talk about such as, deer meat, the diffe...

At the start, I have to apologize for the audio. Anita and I went back to Ohio for a wedding and we had to get this episode in when we could and the mics were not showing us any love. On a brighter note, Cameron and Andrew were able to join us today and help us discuss a favorite movie from my childhood, How High! We discuss our favorite Wu-Tang Clan members, Cameron furthers his grudges with mult...

First it was PJ, now it's Chris and Anita because yes folks, they have never seen Beverly Hills Cop before! This needed to be rectified immediately and what better time than during the Black History Month Marathon! It's been a while since I've watched it and I definitely caught some things during this viewing that I never thought about before. We also have a few stories this week, Anita and I give...

The Black History Month Marathon ain't over! Thanks to Markellus from So Wizard Podcast, the three of us finally get to check off a big one. Yes folks, none of us had ever watched Purple Rain before this but we were all familiar with that album. Chris has been dreading this day, but Anita and I were looking forward to it. We review each song as it comes up, Anita gets mad at some hand gestures I m...

It's time to wrap up the first month of The Black History Month Marathon and I wanted to show Chris some love and watch something a bit less depressing this time. So, we are going to shed some light on a posse of Black cowboys and neither of us have ever seen this film before. There are a ton of Westerns but not a lot that tell these stories, so it was a lot of fun to see it on screen and make sur...

I wanted to give the ladies some shine during the BHM Marathon, so Anita picked the movie this week and she has been wanting to talk about it on the show for a while now. Chris and I had never watched this before the episode but I heard nothing but good things. Well, until I checked out the Wikipedia page at the end of the episode. I actually got Anita to laugh a lot during this episode, even thou...

You know, them trying to erase and cover up our history is nothing new right? Back in 1923, the town of Rosewood, which was a predominantly Black town was burned to the ground and many of its inhabitants killed because of one person's lie and hatred. It was swept under the rug for decades until someone finally told the story and in 1997, John Singleton made a movie about the tragedy and documented...

It's my favorite time of the year for the podcast, yes, the Black History Month marathon begins this week and will run from now and into March and for the Month of February, I had an idea. Since there is a subset of people who want to try and erase, bury and withhold our history from the public, all month we are watching Black films, by Black directors about or inspired by real events in Black his...

The Homie Mike Bagford is back for the second week in a row and this time he brings along his Patreon pick! Thanks to him, Chris and Anita get to see Goodfellas for the very first time! The movie gave us a lot to talk about, so the tangents are minimal, but the conversation was still fun. We laugh at bad acting, the Halle Berry Catwoman movie comes up for some reason, I try and keep Chris and Anit...

F--K YOU JOEY! Those words will be uttered again because Joey has used his Patreon pick to inflict damage to my co-hosts. I am not new to the world of Neil Breen but Anita and Chris are about to be caught terribly off guard this week. For some reason, the homie Mike Bagford really wanted to be here for this episode, so he is here as well and hopefully can help us figure out what this movie is even...

This week's Patreon Pick is an import from our homies over in Canada, Brendan and Nathan! I can honestly say that, if not for them, none of us would probably have ever watched this movie and it would've stayed a foggy memory in my mind from digging through video store discount bins back in the day. Could there be a glimmer of hope, is this a diamond in the rough, is it an under looked gem, one of...
