They Made Another One?!

We made a mistake. The mistake was watching this movie. To correct this error, we tried something new: it's just gonna be you, us, and a 20 minute timer to talk about THE FLINTSTONES IN VIVA ROCK VEGAS. And then no more. Then we talk about Easter chocolate and Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin, mostly. Because why not, right? Fuck it, it's the same mentality the filmmakers had. Find us on Twi...

Content warning: discussion of transphobia, homophobia, sexual assault, and graphic violence throughout the episode. Liam and his longtime friend, special guest Neal, both love the hell out of the movie SLEEPAWAY CAMP, which is known for it's iconic and controversial twist ending. We decided that was reason enough to decide to watch RETURN TO SLEEPAWAY CAMP, a film the same writer/director mad...

In these uncertain times, we've decided to seek out our roots and find familiar comforts. Of course, that means watching a forgotten sequel in a much-beloved horror movie franchise. It's never been a guarantee for the movie to blow us away, but there's always a chance, and with anxiety swirling around us now, it's a chance we wanted to take. It paid off. Without further ado, here&#...

In the midst of this awful quarantine we figured we'd take a look at a slam dunk for this show: Nicolas Cage in THE WICKER MAN. However, it seems to us like the film's reputation can be a bit much at times, and a lot of the thematic elements are... dubious. What eventually forms is a loving serenade to an underappreciated actor unfairly meme'd out of being taken seriously by most. Here...

Looks like everything is still terrible, so we thought we'd try to offset that terribleness with a movie so pleasant and cute and sugary sweet that our mood would have to improve -- and we brought returning guest Laura along for the ride. We finally see the next installment of Lara Jean and Peter's story that... well I'm not sure we were too worried about but it's bright and colour...

Content warning: discussion of physical violence and physical, mental, emotional abuse & gaslighting throughout the episode. Look, everything is pretty miserable right now so let's cut right to the chase: THE INVISIBLE MAN is an incredible film. Take a break from the outside world and let us tell you why.

In need of a new tactic to avoid the Animal Gods, we decided to try and class the joint up a bit with the return of friend of the show Mitch to discuss FRENCH CONNECTION II, John Frankenheimer's seemingly immediately forgotten sequel to the grimy classic. Friedkin's film has a massive reputation to uphold -- iconic chases, cutting characters, thoughtful insight into the duality of law enfo...

Content Warning: discussion of suicide throughout the episode. Seeing as our Animal Month woes appear to be slowly disappearing, we figured it might be safe to head back toward an animal movie. We were wrong. What results is one of the most divisive episodes of TMAO to date, discussing a movie that is absolutely overloaded with questionable, painfully 90s decision making. You bungee jumped off of...

We're still on the run from our Animal Month antagonists Dunston and the Electricity Wizard Clancy Brown. Despite our predicament, Liam phoned in from a safe location to chat about TOY STORY 4, a movie we had basically completely forgotten about that is stuffed top to bottom with people having various degrees of an existential crisis. As we gradually realize we're not nearly as in-touch wi...

The Animal Gods were displeased that we attempted to end Animal Month, and, unable to record a new episode, we must resort to The Vault -- to one of our very first recordings: ROBOCOP 3. While we attempt to appease Dunston &the Electricity Wizard Clancy Brown, hear an extended analysis of both the squandered potential of ROBOCOP 3 and whatever the hell the movie RIPD is. As a special bonus, Co...

Well, the finale of our critically-acclaimed, much-beloved ANIMAL MONTH has finally arrived, and what better way to cap it off than with a remix of a 50s classic: LEAVE IT TO BEAVER. In the heat of the Mischief Movie moment of the 1990s, plenty of household names got their family movie makeover -- Dennis (the menace), Dunston (checks in), Beaver (left to). And to celebrate the discovery of this fo...

Having experienced some truly monumental disappointments (BLAIR WITCH 2, OLDBOY [2013]), we were convinced we'd seen the lowest lows. After discovering JAWS: THE REVENGE (1987), how could we be anything but excited: a vengeful, bloodlusting shark follows a family thousands of miles to the Bahamas to try to kill them, while potentially being controlled by some kind of evil magic. If only we kne...

"Oliver doesn't love you. He loves the panther." Immerse yourself in the Leopard Tree Dream this week on TMAO as we bring in our good pal Mitch to discuss Paul Schrader's classic erotic thriller. In this re-imagining of the Val Lewton/Jacques Tourneur original, the humidity of New Orleans seeps into the camera work, the ominous lights and long shadows as Irena dives into her myst...

Content Warning: Discussion of child/spousal abuse and sexual assault from 24:33 to  25:55. They say dead is better, and this week on TMAO we find out if that's as true for film franchises as it is for beloved pets and family members. Mary Lambert returns to helm this sequel looking to capitalize off the popularity of the original as well as Edward Furlong's popularity post-T2. Was it wort...

With the bombastic, screeching blockbusters of the JURASSIC WORLD series, it's easy to forget that JURASSIC PARK had a whole trilogy to itself. This third installment boasts (mostly) impressive effects, the return of Sam Neill (and Laura Dern, however painfully brief), and a tumultuous production history. Can JURASSIC PARK 3 navigate these choppy waters to produce a classic, memorable adventur...

At long last the few references and deep anticipation can finally be paid off. We have made the jellicle choice of seeing this film. We certainly won't tell you anything you don't already know in this episode description. Simply enjoy our experience. MACAVITY!!! Find us on Twitter: @theymadeanother | @mrcoreyprice | @grahamthemallow Find us on Anchor, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcas...

Content Warning: Discussion of spousal abuse, sexual assault/abuse, rape, and incest throughout the episode. With a new decade dawning and a horizon of unending possibility ahead, Liam and Corey decided now was a time to look back on some of the series, movies, and experiences we've had in the past six months. In the start of a tradition that will take place every half-year, we dig into the or...

We've created the perfect episode to boil down the essence of Christmas: a loud, chaotic wreck of a conversation where two adult men are forced to grapple with the unbearable weight of existential dread brought about by Blue Satan himself, Jack Frost as portrayed by Martin Short. Happy Holidays. Find us on Twitter: @theymadeanother | @mrcoreyprice | @grahamthemallowFind us on Anchor, Spotify,...

Content Warning: Discussion of racism, misogyny, toxic masculinity and fraternity culture, sexual assault/abuse, and rape throughout the episode. The finale of our mini BLACK CHRISTMAS extravaganza is here: finally, Sophia Takal's BLACK CHRISTMAS has hit theatres. In a first for TMAO, friend of the show Laura Atherton joins Corey and Liam for an in-depth, lengthy discussion about this fresh ta...

Content Warning: Discussion of mental health issues and sexual assault throughout the episode. The Christmas season is upon us and part one of our mini BLACK CHRISTMAS extravaganza is here! Grab a glass of spicy milk, watch the snow fall calmly outside and hear about two hulking murderers fall between the walls of a sorority house with a flaming baby carriage. If you're wondering how Glen Morg...

As we ring in the dark and ominous winter months, you didn't really think we'd stay away from horror, did you? THE THING (2011) is a prequel/pseudo-reboot that didn't leave much of a cultural impact upon its initial release, and we're here to decide whether it ought to be remembered like John Carpenter's classic, or forgotten like a Dutch commercial for Bud Light. Find us on Tw...

Corey and Liam take their first foray into theatres on TMAO with an extensive discussion of DOCTOR SLEEP, the new film from The Haunting of Hill House's Mike Flanagan. They also talk about Kubrick's original film, the King books they're based on, interplay between various sources, and whether or not DOCTOR SLEEP is up to the myriad challenges. It's a doozy, people. Five star podcas...

Hello fellow users, follow Corey and Liam as they hack into the Grid to discuss TRON: LEGACY, a recent live-action Disney effort that is developing something of a cult following. Try to keep a hold on your Identity Disc as we jam to the Daft Punk soundtrack and find out if this movie is deserving of its newfound reputation. Find us on Twitter: @theymadeanother | @mrcoreyprice | @grahamthemallow Fi...

Content Warning: Discussion of graphic violence, sexual assault, and incest throughout the episode. This week's episode is not for the faint of heart as we discuss the American remake of OLDBOY, a grisly film loaded with violence, cruelty, and deeply unsettling material. The South Korean original from director Park Chan-wook is known for being a stylish and uncompromising film that puts its au...

Look, we know that there were other, potentially more obvious TMNT movies at our disposal. However, had we chosen one of those, we wouldn't have been able to talk about the complicated side effects of filtration and dilution caused by experiencing and interpreting art and its critique second- and third-hand through online video OR Billy Talent nearly as much as we did. Cheers to you, TMNT (200...
