We here at Rabbit Fighters have been unequivocally Anti-Nazi and decidedly Pro-Nazi-Punching since the early 1930s (and it’s also worth noting that we have been Pro-Indiana Jones since 1912.)

So don your best fedora, scrounge through your closet to dust off your bullwhip, yell out the window at those damn hippies to turn that blasted "music" down, and join your three pals, The Rabbit Fighters (and their one esteemed guest, Dr. Tim) as we discuss whether it's necessary to have seen Crystal Skull to understand just what the hell is going on with this, the final installment in the Indiana Jones franchise. (We here are Rabbit Fighters have no actual knowledge as to whether this last statement is true, but it feels true, so let's just say it is...)

Terry Gilliam's ambitious and fanciful box office bomb, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, about an 18th century German Aristocrat who may be A. dead, B. a demi-god, C. insane, D. all three, or E. possibly none of the above, is the topic on this episode of Rabbit Fighters. Can The Baron survive a dance with Venus in the age of #MeToo? Can visual effects win the day in a world of Jar Jars? Will an episode with only 2 out of 3 Rabbit Fighters carry a weight of Gilliamesque magnitude? Join us and find out, won't you?

The Rabbit Fighters go back to when America was at its most golden: the 1960s!

Towns like Tulsa, Oklahoma blossomed with quality schooling, nurturing family life, great employment opportunities, and roving gangs of murder kids who engaged in rain-soaked death match brawls.

Wait a minute, Ponyboy...this town isn't golden! WHAT THE F*** IS WRONG WITH THIS TOWN?!!!

Well, I guess all the murder is OK when the kid gangs are populated by future Hollywood dreamboats like Patrick Swayze, Matt Dillon, Tom Cruise, C. Thomas Howell, Emilio Estevez, Ralph Macchio, Rob Lowe, Leif Garrett, and Diane Lane.

Wait, what were we talking about? Who remembers...we got lost in their eyes. Or at least that's what Francis Ford Coppola is hoping will happen with this most un-golden film.

The Rabbit Fighters hop in their convertible T-Bird and get the hell outta Dodge (or Arkansas) for a wild ride to NOT MEXICO!

Two gals head out of their suffocating small-town lives for a little fun and suddenly find they are outlaws after Louise murders Thelma's would-be rapist in a parking lot.

They hit the road and realize that they are better off as free outlaws than they ever were as trapped women.

On the way, they see lots of water, Brad Pitt's hairless chest, a weepy desert cop, a surprisingly un-psycho Michael Madsen, sweeping desert vistas of Arkansas that's actually Utah, the Grand Canyon which is actually Utah, and the bottom of the Grand Canyon, which is STILL Utah.

And they would've gotten away with it all if it wasn't for those meddling state troopers, led by the only nice-ish guy in the movie, Harvey Keitel. Where are the inept clowns from Super Troopers when these ladies need them?

The Rabbit Fighters have had a year.

We all have, right?

And at the end of the year, we all like to look back and reflect on what’s gone well, what’s gone OK, and what we’ve totally effed up.

In our final episode of 2024, we look back at our past movie and album grades and make amends for our snap judgments.

What did we rate too high?

What did we rate too low?

What’s the dumbest thing we've reviewed this year?

What pleasantly surprised us?

What do we wish we’d seen/watched sooner?

We hope you enjoy this funny and sometimes brutal reevaluation of our evaluations.

We promise more laughs and eff-ups in 2025!

On this Very Special Episode(TM) of Rabbit Fighters, we find our pals cracking wise about the 1983 John Landis Christmas-(adjacent)-classic, Trading Places: THE FIRST FILM TO BE ADDED TO THE RABBIT FIGHTERS RANDOMIZER 3000!

Somehow, Joshua failed to see this holly jolly/racially-and-class-warfare charged buddy comedy when he was 5 years old, starring Eddie Murphy, Dan "Too Many Y's In His Name" Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Amtrack.

It's a pseudoscientific glimpse into the 80's day trader psyche as we finally put to rest the age old question: "If you committed multiple counts of criminal conspiracy in the states of Pennsylvania and New York FOR SCIENCE, would you still make it onto Santa's Naughty List"?

Join us, won't you?

The Rabbit Fighters get rotoscoped, forget how to act, and ride their glowcycles back to 1982...when Disney was floundering and desperate to get those hip kids to love them.

Jeff Bridges stars as Kevin Flynn/Clu, a software guy who has his ideas stolen by a desk with a British accent. As the only person in the movie who can act, he must jump into a supercomputer to save the day!

Bruce Boxlightningpantstner stars as Alan Bradley/Tron...a total mopey turd in real life who also plays the titular character of Tron, who, surprisingly, has no real point in the plot.

Cindy Morgan also kind of stars as Lora/Yori, a scientist who likes dissolving oranges and rebuilding them with lasers. She also likes it when Jeff Bridges takes his top off, even though she is dating the mope.

Together, they battle The MCP, or Master Control Program, a supercomputer who wants to take over the world and force everyone to play Jai Alai at a rave.

The Rabbit Fighters hit the road to examine the frenemy road pic, Midnight Run, which was directed by middle school boy-favorite director Martin Brest. Brest also directed such hits as “Beverly Hills Cop”, “Scent of a Woman”, and “Meet Joe Black,” before the movie “Gigli” made him quit directing forever.

Noted comedian Robert DeNiro stars as Jack, a chain-smoking ex-cop bounty hunter who just wants to open a goddamned coffee shop, OK, you sunuvabich?!

But FIRST, he has to capture The Duke, a chatterbox accountant who crossed the mafia, played by dog-lover and professional dad, Charles Grodin.

Yaphet Kotto from Alien, John Ashton, aka Taggart from Beverly Hills Cop, Dennis Farina aka that guy who plays a cop or gangster in every film, Joe Pantoliano, aka Joey Pants, and Philip Baker Hall round out the star-studded cast.

WILL Jack get the Duke to LA in time for a big payday?

WILL Joey Pants' wig stay on while he screams on the phone?

WILL all the actors develop lung cancer from all the damn smoking?

And how about those chickens?

Those were some good-lookin chickens, amiright?
