The Number One Movie in America

No, not the original! Yeah, Yul Brynner is great, but can we interest you in Ethan Hawke playing a man named Goodnight Robicheaux? Vincent D'Onofrio as a constantly snacking bear-man? Denzel telling the whole damn movie what to do? It's the surprising remake of MAGNIFICENT SEVEN! Plus, our advice on whether or not it's safe to return to indoor cinemas (it ... it is not).

Footloose? Dirty Dancing? Flashdance? Step aside! There's a new dance craze sweeping the nation, and it's BREAKIN'! (Do not call it "Street Jazz.") We investigate the cultural phenomenon-lite and wish we had more time with Turbo and Ozone! Plus, more on recent hits including Da 5 Bloods, Becky and Artemis Fowl!

Why don't you call us sometime when you have no class? We revisit BACK TO SCHOOL, which we definitely did not realize was one of the biggest hits of the '80s, in all of its Oingo Boingo glory! Robin revisits her youth, Kahmeela considers Rodney, Sean is just glad there's no vampire.

If you had asked us before we drew the movie if there was a "Horton Hears a Who" movie adaptation, we probably would've said, "I don't think so? No? Maybe?" There is! It was not only a Number One Movie in America, but one of the top 10 films of 2008! More on surprising box-office kingmaker Dr. Seuss in this look back at Whoville!

For some reason, you've STILL got a friend in Woody, Buzz, and plenty of new arrivals! Can't tell your Forkys from your Duke Cabooms without our thoughts, including a long diversion into the surprisingly endangered species that is the G-Rated movie! Journey with us into a surprisingly terrifying film!

Non-YA vampires and werewolves! (Lycans or whatever, you know what we mean.) We have landed on a long-running film franchise that none of your hosts have any experience with. Will a new fandom be born? Or will everyone just say "Wait, what?" a whole lot?

Unbreakable's secret trilogy comes to a soggy conclusion with GLASS, M. Night Shyamalan's return to disappointing people who have come to trust him! Will any of our panel rush to the defense of the cantankerous filmmaker? Should Sean start watching Tarantino movies again? Is Kahmeela correct when she says The Count from Sesame Street is still putting out bangers? Listen and find out!

It's the most successful vampire pregnancy drama of all time! The penultimate chapter of the Twilight franchise is known as the weird one (and that's saying something). Will time, or the effects of Fifty Shades, redeem the Twilight series? (I mean, do you really think we liked this?)

The most critically acclaimed of the nine Apes Planet flicks got some rapturous reviews, but will this crew of exhausted hosts agree? Is Caesar a moving cinematic icon or just a damn dirty ape? Plus a wide ranging You Can't Handle the Truth and more!

Tommy Lee Jones may not care who did or did not kill their wife, but we're pumped about drawing this '90s mega-hit! Was THE FUGITIVE the rightful summer blockbuster we think it is, or will we find objections? (No, you could not survive that fall.) Plus deep dives in You Can't Handle the Truth and more!

After a random draw heavily influenced by Satan, STIGMATA is the topic for a perilously-close-to-Easter viewing! What's up with this uncut slice of '90s weird? Is this the least Pittsburgh of all allegedly Pittsburgh films? Patricia Arquette is cool, though, right? These questions and more!

It's the first movie we've drawn that NONE of our hosts had ever heard of! In the 1984 drama Teachers, it's up to Nick Nolte to save a struggling high school! Yes, that does seem like a long shot! Superfluous nudity, understated violence and more -- including an interview with Box Office Prophets editor David Mumpower about the future of the movie industry!

We're talking about the Michael Bay heists-and-hoists caper PAIN & GAIN -- and it's a very special episode, since we actually chat with a co-star of the film! Keili Lefkovitz joins us to talk about her memorable appearance in the movie! Plus, more streaming recommendations for your current circumstances!

We look back at CRIMSON TIDE, that staple of your uncle's VHS collection in the '90s! One of your hosts give this film a new high score -- who could it be? Plus, literally zero references to Alabama college football! Plenty of streaming selections for your quarantine, too!

The most successful modern animation studios were tiny babies in the late 90s, and they went to war over the right to animate some bugs. Kahmeela, Sean and Robin (virtually) gather to try and figure out what the dang deal was with Antz, the first-ever release from Dreamworks Animation! Plus out early quarantine picks and more!

One Hufflepuff and two Slytherins gather to evaluate how well noted goofy boomer J.K. Rowling navigated her Wizarding World away from Hogwarts! The first NOMIA reckoning with this mega-franchise talks Nifflers, Bowtruckles and ... severely concerning side characters. Plus Robin's recent HBO adventures, Sean recommends a TV series for once in his life, Kahmeela's finest 60-Second Recap yet and more...

Worst veto ever! A cruel twist of fate left our hosts with THE HANGOVER PART II, and things start out grumpy. Not to worry, though; by the time they're waxing poetic about breakfast sandwiches and BIRDS OF PREY in general, positivity returns to the studio.

The best feature-length commercial ever made gets a mostly fond look back — or, in Kahmeela's case, a first look — as we visit with Unikitty, President Business and all the rest of our LEGO Movie creations. Plus, Taylor Swift and virtual reality (separately) on You Can't Handle the Truth and we have an exciting cardboard visitor! Is Everything Awesome? Until we draw the next movie, anyway!

Your hosts were in three different places on Oscar night. One was at a fancy party! One was at an NBA game! One was asleep on a couch! This didn't stop them from piecing together a running commentary via voice memos, however. Listen to live-to-tape reactions and more!

This movie is not the one with the Eric Clapton song! That's the oddly similar Phenomenon! MICHAEL is the one where John Travolta is a chain-smoking angel on Earth to ... help ... a dog, we guess? Listen as we try to figure this zaniness out! Plus an Oscar preview, our new Bingo segment and more!

Pop quiz, hotshot! You've got one of the most beloved action flicks of the '90s staring you down, and you've gotta do a podcast about it. What do you do? ... You do the podcast is what you do. Let's talk Keanu, Sandy B, the Tuneman and all the rest — plus an honest review of Cats (really) — and a confusing movie draw!

The NOMIA crew kicks off 2020 with Jean Claude Van Damme's hog-splitting action doodad, Maximum Risk! There are just so many questions about this movie, from the hotel volcano to the underpants towels. Plus, Kahmeela is here to rehabilitate the image of Joker! And a very exciting draw for our next film lands on a favorite!

It's our first bonus episode! Robin leads a Factsy look at 2019's biggest box office hits, everyone counts down their top movies of the year and we crunch the numbers to find our favorite Number One Movies in America from a year of podcasting!

It's a ho-ho-holiday double feature! We're binging Christmas movies with the yuletide romcom While You Were Sleeping and the '80s favorite Scrooged — which one will get our Santa Stamp of Approval? Plus, the gang has seen more new movies than you can shake an Irishman at! And the first new movie of 2020 will be a real ... well, just listen.

Time for some Disney Plus! (Ploos?) The team gives their first impression of our new streaming motherlode, including the episode's focus: The stunningly successful Pixar hit, Finding Dory. A loaded YCHTT segment covers The Irishman, Doctor Sleep and more!
