Episode 100: Jurassic Park Redux (1993) Mar 04, 2021

Show notes

An adventure 100 episodes in the making: That’s right for their 100th movie episode the boys are going back to where it all started and rewatched the Spielberg classic Jurassic Park!

Where were the parents of that effeminate boy that Grant threatens to gut with a raptor claw? How did they bring back the extinct plants? How did Sam Jackson keep that cig in his mouth? How drunk was Malcom when he lit that flair inside of the car and thought he could outrun a T Rex? Why didn’t we get a Jaws/Quint like death from Mauldoon? And where the hell did that Trex come from at the ending of the movie!?

Once the movie talk comes to an end, the gang dives into the 2 alternate endings that almost happened, as well as their dream recasting, and typical closing out stuff…just listen and you will find out.

This was a good one folks, so hold on to your butts.

Mrs. Doubtfire (1993): Hairy Kneecaps, Expedited Court Hearings, and Sally Field RBF Feb 23, 2021

Show notes

It is the last film before their special 100th movie episode, and the boys watched the family-friendly story of a divorced, unemployed actor who dresses up as an old woman in order to manipulate his ex-wife and kids into loving him in Mrs. Doubtfire!

Lot of movie stuff to talk about such as: unexpected hostility towards interior decorators, Tom Hanks being the pizza gate ringleader, unorganized petting zoos, low blows at case workers, the rare occurrence of a blockbuster movie without a single villain, and restaurant hijinks. Daniel has gotten in so deep that he doesn’t even know who he is anymore!

The Notebook (2004): Romantic Cliches, Birds; Dishonorable Intentions, and Collateral Damage Feb 11, 2021

Show notes

It’s that time of year again where the ladies are picking the movies for the month, and first up is the cult classic story of a rich white woman whose biggest problem is that too many handsome men love her unconditionally in the film based off Nicholas’s Spark’s romance novel:The Notebook!

This movie got the boys real nostalgic for their high school years as they share a few personal stories from their past. They also talk about the odd connections to the classic film The Great Escape, Noah’s multiple suicide attempts to get Allie’s attention, gross beards, Rachel McAdams’ phantom eye brows, the origins of old Southern money, and that super hot PG-13 sex scene.

WHHOOOHH NEELLLLYYY!

Bonus: What To Watch On Valentines Day Feb 04, 2021

Show notes

This week Max, Bill, and John break down their selection of movies to watch on Valentines Day. You don’t need to like romantic movies to enjoy this episode, so break out the wine and chocolate, turn on your favorite streaming fireplace video, and get the lube ready because this episode is going to be HAWT AND SWEATY.

Double Impact (1991) Silk Underwear, Cooter Floss, Smacking Women, and Grabbing Fistfuls of Ass! Jan 28, 2021

Show notes

Two brothers separated at birth. One is a prissy-karate-kicking-LA-aerobic-instructor who only wears pastels. The other is a karate-kicking-cigar-chewing smuggler from the mean streets of Hong Kong…..and both have horrific Belgian French accents with 0 body hair.

Strap in because this week the boys are wrapping up their “It’s New to Me” mini series with the ADR filled, Johnny Walker-snot rocketing, roundhouse kick JCVD classic in Double Impact!

Judge Dredd (1995) This Isn’t Demolition Man Jan 20, 2021

Show notes

Since the boys watched Demolition Man last week they thought it would be appropriate to watch the other dystopian sci fi action movie that unfortunately costars Rob Schneider in Judge Dredd!

This might be the most basic, tame, and lazy rated R action movie of all time where the most interesting thing is seeing Stallone with beautiful blue eyes.

The boys cover the entire sloppy plot as well as the logic of gunfire slowing down when you are shooting from high ground, the misfortune of women never having the opportunity to share a coed locker room with a bunch of old YMCA men, inbred Sybian cyborgs, golden cod pieces, and cops in 6 inch heels.

Demolition Man (1993) This Isn't Judge Dredd Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

The first movie of the already awful 2021 takes us to the futuristic year of 2032 where the liberals have made America so soft that they need to defrost Sylvester Stallone in order to fight a black criminal, in Demolition Man!

The boys go into specific detail regarding that amazing action packed opening as well as Stallone’s freakish physique in this movie, the odd no touching social distance high fives, random yabbos, the amazing swearing machine that John hated, loaded guns inside a museum, what to do with the 3rd seashell (hint it has something to do with that VR sex scene)

And why did they pick to go only 36 years into the future and what the hell happened in between?

Show notes

Recorded on 12/22 but who really cares because what’s changed between then and now? Timmy leads a night that most of the hosts already forgot as Max, Bill, John, and Mike battle it out in 3 rounds of bar trivia to see who will win the coveted price of a 45th anniversary Jaws DVD Box set.

Trivia Topics include:

Classic Christmas Movie Trivia
Hollywood Trivia
Sports
Great Hollywood Turtlenecks
Bob Kraft Improv
Is it in Austria or Australia?
Rudy Giuliani/ Mike Pence

The boys get real punch drunk and also just plain ole' drunk around the 57 min mark during the final round of trivia where they talk about drunken Christmas parties from the past, the TB12 method, and the show stopping Rudy Giuliani/ Mike Pence erotica.

So if you miss bar trivia, bars, trivia in general, interacting with humans, getting drunk, making an ass of yourself, or laughing at the expense of others look no further because this special has it all!

Die Hard 2 (1990) Die Harder! Dec 17, 2020

Show notes

Nothing gets you in the holiday spirit more than a rouge Special Ops Colonel hacking Dulles Airport’s communication systems and crashing a plane with 250 Brits onboard; the boys watched the festive and extremely violent family-friendly sequel to one of the greatest movies of all time in Die Hard 2!

This was a huge hit back in the day in an era where Bruce Willis, producer and cocaine-in-its-human-form Joel Silver, and screen writer Steven E. de Souza were all at the top of food chain and were basically given a blank check. Unfortunately, Die Hard director John McTiernan wasn’t there to veto any of their bad ideas; therefore, we get this scrambled mess where Bruce Willis has an ADR’d one liner every 5 seconds, and none of the villains have any personality.

Fun times await you, so just listen to the damn episode already!

The Year Without A Santa Claus (1974) If No One Watched This Movie, Did It Actually Happen? Dec 10, 2020

Show notes

Santa isn’t sick; he’s just depressed, and now, he refuses to work on the 1 day a year he’s expected to: that or he has The Rona. Either way, he’s coughing on everyone.

Mrs Claus wants to take her husband’s job, but unfortunately, she doesn’t have the stones to follow through.

The elves, Jingle and Jangle, are a complete liability, the Miser brothers look a lot like Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and neither of them are getting along.

Also, Max shares a bunch of awful stories about Mickey Rooney, and the boys come up with a new Christmas movie starring Al Pacino’s character from Heat.

Just one big jolly Christmas time for all, so listen to the episode - even if you haven’t watched the movie like one of our cohosts.
