Remember a time...a time before the intense superhero fatigue of the 2020's kicked in, where the idea of a non-IP semi-satire of pre-mature MCU films was a fresh idea. If you're thinking of 2010's Kick-Ass then congratulations...you win nothing! This film by Matthew Vaughn features a creative premise, Nicholas Cage overacting, kids cursing and committing murder, and some seriously questionable story beats. We also get into Le Finn Du Monde being the greatest beer ever, and the time capsule that is Ohio's Jungle Jims International food market.

It stars - Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz, Nicholas Cage, Mark Strong, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Lyndsy Fonseca, Clark Duke, and Evan Peters.

Have you felt sad, lethargic, and are experiencing a lack of interest in things you're usually invested in? It's probably because you've listened to our discussion on Lars von Trier's 2011 psychological-drama 'Melancholia'. We've just come out of three months straight of bleak grayness with no sun in sight, but the heavens aligned when we got together for this session with a warm sunny day...thank god, we needed it considering the emotionally heavy subject matter. For this episode we're drinking 'Beat' by Heart State Brewing,.

This film stars Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Alexander Skarsgård, Stellan Skarsgård, John Hurt, Charlotte Rampling, and Udo Kier.

We know that you just want to listen to your Creedence tapes while laying on a comfy rug (that really ties the room together), but new shit has come to light! We're finally talking about The Big Lebowski, a film that we've officially declared as the "official anti-podcast movie". Surprisingly, Austin is the first one to bring back the Coen brothers to the table much to Alex's delight. We got lost in the supposed nothing-burger of this plot, but is there something deeper going on here?

It stars Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, John Turturro, Tara Reid

You know it's not going to be a good day when you have to listen to two white men drink and review movies, and all the while you're still in fucking Bruges! Most of us will never have the luxury of visiting a beautiful country like Belgium, but we all can relate to the misery that Ray feels while he's there. We're talking about In Bruges (2008), the film written and directied by Martin McDonagh, which follows two hitmen after a job gone bad awaiting further instruction while they vacation in Europe. It stars Colin Ferrel, Brendan Gleeson, Clémence Poésy, and Ralph Fiennes.

For this episode we're drinking Goose Island Bourbon County stout "Cherrywood" edition, as well as Makers Mark French Oak whisky

Tackling a classic film in a unique way is never an easy task, but we're going a step farther than that with Akira Kurosawa's 1954 film Seven Samurai - a film that was an essential pillar in establishing certain plot-beats that have been referenced, homaged, and copied many times over. We get into the "slightly bald top-knot", Oppenheimer (2023) and how the atomic bomb effected Japan in the 1950's, and the technicality of this in comparison to other heavyweights of the time like Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick.

We're drinking Kikori Japanese whisky and Kirin Ichiban.

We're officially kicking off our "golden era" with the most life-affirming album that mankind has ever seen. Two depressed white men have their character arcs challenged by a mixture of funky bangers and thoughtful ballads. Even Alex, the resident cynic of this podcast, is singing the graces of the good lord...what the hell is going on? The status quo has been interrupted, just as Stevie intended...we are blind, but now we see.

The Silence of the Lambs

Directed by Jonathan Demme

Starring - Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Scott Glenn, Ted Levine, Anthony Heald

We're transitioning out of spooky season through the form of this psychological-thriller that reads more of as a mature character than anything. That's right folks, the film whose VHS artwork scarred any child that laid eyes upon it is actually a commentary on women and the male gaze...how chilling!! We get into the film's incredibly tight screenplay, legendary performances, and discuss one of horror's most familiar cliches.

Tonight we are drinking Unibroue Brewing's La Fin du Monde

Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984)

Directed by Joseph Zito

Corey Feldman, Crispin Glover, Kimberly Beck

Through some cruel twist of fate we have found ourselves in the depths of what cinema has to offer. Austin's bright idea has brought us to the iconic Friday the 13th franchise, which sees us hopping into the fourth installment without seeing any of the previous entries, but we soon find out just how little that matters, Often declared as one of the series' best films, Part IV offers a familiar mix of teens wandering through the woods, undressing, and being stabbed. We're in uncharted territory now folks! But don't worry, because Jason Voorhees is going out with a bang for the last time...until the next seven times that is!
