Ep. 181 - The Year of Cannon: Enter the Ninja! Feb 28, 2019

Show notes

We continue The Year of Cannon by gathering all of our throwing stars, blow guns, nunchucks, and mustaches as we discuss 1981's Enter the Ninja. We are joined by Kevin from the Strange Highways podcast as we all (mostly Paul) fawn over Franco Nero's Cole, an American who shortly after earning the right to be called a Ninja, goes and helps an old war buddy fight off an evil business man who spends most of his time standing by an indoor swimming pool/office berating those around him. Also, there is a surprising amount of cockfighting in a film about ninjas. Do we exit the film in one piece? Listen and find out!

Ep. 178 - One Dozen Bat (or Owl) Wings! Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

This week Netflix doubles down on their Ted Bundy offerings, we no longer have to wonder Y The Last Man isn't already a TV show, we celebrate George Romero on his birthday, we talk about that important DC comics event from 1988, Batman: A Death In The Family and how Batman's loss was driven by reader choice, and Steve asks Paul a lot of loosely based questions surrounding the Super Bowl.

Ep. 177 - The Year of Cannon: The Apple! Jan 31, 2019

Show notes

We start off our Year of Cannon in style, well in a style of sorts, as we look at the science fiction/dicso pop mash up musical from 1980, The Apple. We do the BIM and wear our BIM marks so as not to get ticketed by the BIM police as we talk about Menahmen Golan's unique vision of the future... of 1994. Grab your glitter, hop into your bubble domed car, and drive off into heaven with us as we try to understand what The Apple is made of!

Ep. 176 - Overlook-ed! Jan 24, 2019

Show notes

This week we do manly things like shoveling snow and eating chili, we discuss the Oscar nominations, Viacom buying Pluto (the internet TV service, not the planet), a man getting very upset about his wife possibly touching his action figures, we revisit what many people consider to be a horror masterpiece, Stanley Kubrick's The Shining, and see if we can approach it with a different perspective, and to celebrate National Compliment Day, we force ourselves to say nice things about stuff we don't like.
