In this episode, we give our film reviews of Thor: The Dark World and A Haunting in Venice. Does this Thor "movie" confirm that Marvel is bad or is Phil just making ridiculous leaps in logic?

In this episode, we give our reviews of Iron Man 3 and The Nun 2. Can Shane Black manage to save the Marvel Cinematic Universe after the most disappointing movie in film history (this is fact, not just Phil's opinion!)? We look at the PTSD suffered by Tony Stark and discuss all the great actors who do their best to make Iron Man 3 a must-see movie. Then we turn our attention to The Nun 2. Has...

Welcome to another episode! Unfortunately, for you Marvel fans, this will be a nightmare for 60 minutes. Phil and John try to answer the most important question of our time: Is The Avengers the most overrated movie ever? Then we turn our attention to a video game movie about racing, which is really a simulation, but really it's real life. Where does Gran Turismo rank amongst recent racing movi...

We're back!! Tonight we talk about Captain America: The First Avenger. Is this the best movie of Phase One? Is it the best Marvel movie period? Then we turn our attention to a raunchy R-rated comedy about dogs who like to say the "F-word" and hump things. But does it have enough heart to make it worth a watch? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Also, like this video and s...

Tonight, we discuss the fourth movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor! Does it hold up? Is the CGI... bad? How does it compare to the other Phase One movies? Our second movie of the week is The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Does a Dracula slasher film on a boat work, or is it predictable, and thus, skippable? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

We continue making our way through the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and this week we're talking about Iron Man 2 and the problem with superhero movie endings. Then we turn our attention to Haunted Mansion, the Disney movie roughly 14 people saw, as we try to pinpoint what the heck is wrong with Disney!

Last week, we discussed Iron Man, the solid start to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Tonight, we discuss one of the worst superhero (or maybe just...) movies ever made! Yeah, The Incredible Hulk is that bad! We're also talking about Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer. Is it as good as the hype it's gotten or is it getting praised because it's Nolan? We're ready to break it all down...

Phil and John are back with their second series following their top 100. Each week they will watch a movie recently released in theaters or on a streaming service.

Survivor 44 has been over for three weeks, and after four seasons of new era Survivor, this feels like the perfect time to talk about the show's flaws and how to actually fix them. I didn't love much of what I saw in the last four seasons, but let's be real, even when Survivor is not great, it's still better than 95% of what is on TV. However, since the 44 finale, I rewatched Survi...

Phil and John have done it! They have made it to their favorite movies of all time! Tonight they discuss a Tarkovsky classic and a movie that pretty much created the Vietnam genre.

Check back in July when we start a weekly deep dive into the Marvel...

Phil and John have hit their second-favorite films of all time! Tonight they're discussing two movies that convey the horrors of the American Dream in very different ways. Daniel Day-Lewis and Kevin Spacey each won Oscars for their roles as men doing everything they can to find fulfillment in America.  Next week, we finally hit our favorite movies of all time: Stalker (1979) and The Deer Hunte...
