The Post Credit Podcast

This week, it's the old man's turn as he joins Matt on the mic to talk about his favorite film, the Western Movie epic Lonesome Dove! Join us as we talk about Gus and Woodrow's epic northern journey as they pull back and forth at a proverbial rope that separates a man of pleasures and a man of determination. We also talk about what this movie missed in the case of Huston's casting as Clara as well...

Happy Mother's Day! Today we explore one of the most epic action movies of all time and certainly one of the defining action movies of the 90's, defining both for the spectacle and for the two leads involved, John Travolta and Nicholas Cage. Some consider this Woo's best American movie, and rightfully so as he layered on the stunt madness, the epic cinematic score, and the suuuper slow-mo! Join us...

Thank you to all our listeners for sticking with us and to all the new listeners for sticking around!! Today on our Season 2 finale we discuss Matt's favorite action movie of all time, 1994's Speed! There's something about a simplistic action movie with razor-sharp writing and dialogue, a director who knows how to shoot action and a score that has yet to be topped for an action movie score that st...

Join us this episode as we discuss The Mummy and The Mummy Returns and how well Brendan Fraser fit comfortably into the boots of a certain archaeologist that came before him. The PCP also discusses why this simple 90's action adventure was so popular whereas the more modern Cruise vehicle fails. And finally come to watch Matt completely spoil Drew on the plot of Oz The Great And Powerful. Yikes. C...

Let's go to Hawaii!! On this episode of The PCP we discuss 50 First Dates and the very real medical condition the movie uses for gags, emotional weight, and reoccurring jokes. Join us as we break down this Sandler classic and as we continue to discuss the ongoing cinematic romance between him and Barrymore. This movie put their adorable chemistry on overdrive and the story is sickly sweet as well...

Happy April Fool's Day!

Today we react to Zack Snyder's Justice League, the differences from the Josstice League, and where DC goes from here.... Or more appropriately SHOULD go from here. 

Today on The PCP we break down the most successful live action movie from Adam Sandler, Big Daddy. Join us as we talk about the Sprouse twins and their emotional and adorable performance, all the Happy Madison regulars and the comic gold between Sandler and Leslie Mann. From the heightened stakes, to the slapstick comedy and all the emotional and funny beats in-between, this is Sandler at his apex...

Join us for part 2 of our Adam Sandler month with his highest-rated comedy, The Wedding Singer, the very first time he fell in love with Drew Barrymore(easy as pie in our opinion). Listen in as The PCP talks about the first time (but definitely not the last) that Sandler shared the screen with Drew, as well as Covert, Dante, Buscemi, and others as well establishing the sweet guy with slightly fett...

On this episode of The PCP, we break down Happy Gilmore, arguably the defining movie that launched Adam Sandler's massively successful career. Join us as we talk about tough guy Carl Weathers' casting as a goofy golf pro, Christopher McDonald's timelessly iconic villain, the deliciously smarmy Shooter McGavin, and whatever happened to Grandma's captive (though not captivating) storyline with Ben S...

On this episode we discuss, True Romance, the film that shows us that romance goes a certain way but every once in a while, it goes the other way too. Listen in as we discuss the first Hollywood movie Tarantino wrote and how it turned out to be a fairy tale in modern-day Detroit and LA. We talk about the scenery-chewing dialogue and the heavy-weight players like Hopper, Walken, and Oldman as well...

Join us this episode as The PCP covers What's Eating Gilbert Grape and the outrageous fact that Leonardo DiCaprio won an Academy Award 23 years after THIS Oscar-worthy performance that should have seen him go home with the gold (With Apologies to Tommy Lee Jones.) Join us as we discuss this, a rare straight-man performance of Depp's that sees this eclectic and fascinating actor at his most apathet...

Join The PCP as we discuss the John Cusack classic, Grosse Pointe Blank, and answer his character's question to himself: You're a handsome devil, what's your name? This movie cemented Cusack as a romantic lead and a plethora of rom-coms followed. From High Fidelity to Must Love Dogs, he perfected his unlikeable but likeable shtick. But, though Say Anything is so iconic, his rhythm for movies he wo...

On this episode of The Post Credit Podcast hosts Matt and Drew take on teen movie/sports drama Varsity Blues and the never ending cadence of the movie's theme song, My Hero by Foo Fighters. Join us as we explore the football culture and lifestyle in Texas that this film represents while also trying to decide if this was just as much Billy Bob's movie as it was Mox's. Listen in as we talk about the...

I hate it when I hear the ums and even more the uhs I hate it when the movie bombs despite the pleasant buzz I hate it when I write these things and no one cares to read I hate when they pass up Stiles and instead cast Tara Reid I hate that Ledger isn't here to act his ass off more I hate that I don't hate these rom-coms. Not even close. Not even a little bit. I'm never even bored.

The 90's wrapped up with this, perhaps the most iconic (or at least top 5) of all modern teen movies. Channeling My Fair Lady, Sabrina, and even Cinderella, the movie bites with charm, wit, and quotables in a modern retelling, though that bite is with a mouth full of 90's fashion, music, and slang ("Yeah, busy 'Wiggin'"). Join us for the bet that made audiences ignore the jackassery of the male le...

On this episode of The Post Credit Podcast we kick off our 90's Teen Movie month with Matt's favorite of this particular genre, Can't Hardly Wait. Join The PCP as we examine this late-90's teen movie absolutely chock-full of tropes, fashion, stereotypes, and music commited to this time and age group. This movie was never meant to have characters you want to know more about but more characters that...

Join The PCP this episode as we examine the movie Toys starring Robin Williams and directed by Barry Levinson. This was never Williams' best or most revered movie, in fact some consider it his worst. We say not, but even Robin's worst is still pure magic. Listen in as we navigate the director's decision to base it in a fantastically whimsical world, filled to the brim with eccentric and gorgeous p...

It's Die Hard. Just listen. Plus Die Harder. Bonus Die Hard.

On this episode of The Post Credit Podcast, Matt and Drew discuss one of their favorite 90's movies, though one of the hosts admits it's not as impactful as it once was. With Honors was made more famous by it's soundtrack, namely a Madonna track, than for its actual merits but it still finds a way to charm, kept mostly afloat by Pesci's talent and the adorable likability of Moira Kelly. RIP Gorky,...

Join The PCP this week as we discuss The Fifth Element and all of its allegories as well as Milla Jovovich's breakout role as Leeloo and, perhaps, Bruce Willis' last portrayal as a 'somewhat' Everyman. The Fifth Element, another powerful-female-driven tale to join director Luc Besson's other notable films like Lucy, The Professional and Nikita, is the tale of a perfect being, capable of saving hum...

On this episode of The Post Credit Podcast, Matt and Drew give up on writing the synopsis in a beat poet fashion because as easy as it seems, it's harder than you think. Join the PCP as we break down this cult classic that got lost between 2 Wayne's World films and left far in the dust by the ludicrous success of Austin Powers.   The movie, filled with quotable lines and the impeccably on-point Mi...

**Explicit** Sometimes, terrible horror movies can be the best fun. Such is the case with this episode's subject, 13 Ghosts. Real life final girls Elicia and Gen from the Horror N Heels podcast join Matt and Drew to discuss the 2001 movie starring Matthew Lillard as well as the rules we learned last week on our episode about the Scream franchise. Questions remain, however: Will Elicia finally star...

Welcome to Season 2! Kicking off the new season, Matt and Drew discuss the entire Scream franchise in this EXTRA LONG episode of The Post Credit Podcast. Join us as we dive into the lore and the tropes that Scream, the self-aware film from Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson, made fresh and new as these horror whodunnits laid the groundwork and blueprints for most that followed after. With all the gre...

Join us for our Season 1 finale as we break down the movie 300 with Special Guest Ryan Conley. The movie 300 definitely favored style over historical accuracy and on this episode The PCP explores the inaccuracies in it as well as all the many differences between not only the movie and the historical events it depicts but the differences between movies today and back in 2006. These particular diffe...
