The Second Part in our Faith in the Wicked Trilogy Last month we insulted the likes of Guillermo del Toro, Martin Scorsese and David FIncher for making TV movies... and in our second episode of 2026 we feature a really expensive TV movie from Rian Johnson in his third KNIVES OUT entry WAKE UP DEAD MAN! One host was spiritually moved upon first watch and continued to find more to love about this latest Daniel Craig mystery... and the other came around once the majesty of seeing it at home on streaming just as our gods at Netflix intended. Cinema in 2026 as we TRY to feature films that actually play in theaters! Enjoy! Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!

The First Part in our Faith in the Wicked Trilogy 28 Days Later has aged like a fine wine but perhaps 28 Years Later hasn't aged enough as audiences unfortunately seemed to tune out the latest entry in this franchise 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. We discuss the franchise as a whole (mostly skipping 28 WEEKS LATER unless one host gets a chance to bring up THE BEACH) and how much love we have for Ralph Fiennes, well-endowed zombies and a dance sequence with Satanists. Just a damn good time at the movies as we start our year of covering one new theatrical release a month. Enjoy!

A Feel Bad Christmas Podcast Shane Black has had two near misses of being featured on this year's season of episodes of TiT... and his silly KISS KISS BANG BANG was replaced with The Feel Bad Christmas movie from David Fincher. I don't know if that says more about Mr. Black or us but for Christmas in 2025 it's THE GIRL WITH DRAGON TATTOO and we couldn't be happier! Well... we could. And we do air our grievances for Festivus for the rest of us but we have absolutely none with this modern Christmas classic!

The Second Part in our Meet Cute Again Trilogy This film selection will come as no surprise as one host may have seen Nora Ephron's absolute classic YOU'VE GOT MAIL more than any other movie in his life and also because it's the only entry in cinema that naturally follows up Alfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO. I said what I said and we say a lot more about Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks at their most charming in this Christmas season edition of TiT. Enjoy!

The First Part in our Meet Cute Again Trilogy This is an episode about an absolute classic pervert as a hero. In fact it's The Movie about the heroic perv and we are just the two perverts to take up this quest... a movie podcast talking about Alfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO. We didn't promise unique perversions but we do promise that it is perverse. And blissfully not an MCU movie!

The Third Part in our Faking it on the Job Trilogy Inspired by a movie on having the right words in the wrong profession I'm going to skip the memo of show notes for JERRY MAGUIRE because we have no text worthy of being used in a cheesy pop country song. Instead we just have this podcast. Enjoy! Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!

The Second Part in our Faking it on the Job Trilogy Did our laziness make this episode more topical? Yes. Does that make us heroes in the media like Mr. Kimmel? Some would say much more so! For we are unpaid. But we are equally as passionate about speaking truth into these tin cans for absolutely NO ONE to see us sweat like Albert Brooks in BROADCAST NEWS. But that goes back to our inherent laziness. For we haven't gotten around to throwing up videos of us talking movies on Youtube yet. Possibly because we don't look like William Hurt. So just enjoy listening to us! Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!

The First Part in our Faking it on the Job Trilogy We timed our SUPERMAN release to its inevitable viewing from the masses on streaming (HBO Max for now and maybe I shouldn't name check them because they'll inevitably do something horrible to a comedy host) NOT because we are late in uploading this recording... but because we are thinking of the common man and would never dare to ruin this joyful film with spoilers. Or something like that. Regardless here is rare instant joy from us as we discuss our thoughts straight out of the early Amazon Prime screening (notice a trend in us supporting horrible companies if we can watch our man in underpants punch things onscreen) and then try to cobble together a trilogy after the fact.

The Third Part in our Failures in Teamwork Trilogy As we approach the tenth anniversary of the second time Matt Damon was left stranded on a planet (one host approves) we debate man's will to live in isolation for years if it means that Jessica Chastain will eventually save him. Not much of a debate! So instead we discuss (though not at such great a length as anything remotely involving The Chastain) the prospects of big budget Hollywood filmmaking such as this in 2025... because ten years ago I could get brief appearances by Kristen Wiig and Donald Glover and I'd expect nothing less from SIR Ridley Scott. We live in troubled times but you can enjoy this podcast. Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!

The Second Part in our Failure in Teamwork Trilogy So this is the big one. The episode where our hosts decide if its time to get off this Marvel Cinematic Universe gravy train (thought the numbers would say otherwise) and call it good with the end of Phase One (ugh) with THE AVENGERS. So many paths we could take. Like doing the failed adaptation of that British show with Uma Thurman in the 90s. That couldn't have been that bad. But here we are.

The First Part in our Failure in Teamwork Trilogy Some might say that the failure in teamwork starts with one host being bullied by the other into doing an episode on A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS. All because the bullied host said he finally got around to the first entry into this ESTEEMED franchise and expressed enthusiasm for the original film. And here we are with a discussion on the merits of a deleted scene where Freddy Krueger has boobs. Teamwork.

The Not Ready for MCU Players #5 You may be wondering or more likely hate-listening to our travels through the Marvel Cinematic Universe and asking yourself "WHY?" This is a very reasonable question and perhaps if followed by the even more reasonable response of turning this podcast off. But then you find yourself coming back. Reading these show notes for some reason. Because today is the day Ben Affleck as DAREDEVIL hit the feed. And really that's the whole reason one of us is podcasting to begin with. Enjoy!

The Third Part in our Symbols of America Trilogy As we near a holiday of fireworks and hot dogs we celebrate this occasion by talking about the time when Agent Carter took her chance to fondle Captain America's newly pumped up with super soldier serum breasts.
