Show notes

Alonso and guest host Matt Atchity of Rotten Tomatoes (aka "Fat Beardo 1" & "Fat Beardo 2" to some What the Flick?! viewers) talk about the death of regional film criticism (in print, anyway) and the ongoing problems with the MPAA ratings system when not actually discussing this week's new movies. Follow Matt @MAtchity on Twitter.

"The Hunger Games," "The Raid: Redemption," "The Deep Blue Sea," Revisiting "The Clock" Mar 26, 2012

Show notes

Dave's shocking revelations about his childhood flirtation with showtunes shock Alonso, and they eventually talk about the week's new movies after a long digression involving Christian Marclay's 24-hour film "The Clock."

"21 Jump Street," "Jeff, Who Lives at Home," "Casa de Mi Padre," "The Kid with a Bike," "Natural Selection" Mar 19, 2012

Show notes

Dave's excited over his new headphones, while Alonso goes down a rabbit-hole of TV nostalgia. All this, plus brioche, Hokeys and cinemaniacs.

"John Carter," "Friends with Kids," "A Thousand Words," "This is Not a Film," "Silent House," "Footnote," "Playback," "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" Mar 11, 2012

Show notes

So many movies this week, but Dave and Alonso still find time to talk about Doomsday Preppers, the Adam Scott/Hellraiser connection, and the eternal mystery that is Loretta aka Chiffon.

"The Lorax," "Project X," "Being Flynn," "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie," "The Snowtown Murders," "The Lorax" Mar 04, 2012

Show notes

Dave and Alonso endure the longest opening theme song ever, debate the relative merits of 1982 vs. 1984 summer movies, and disagree over the meaning of the word "free-wheeling."

"Act of Valor," "Tyler Perry's Good Deeds," "Wanderlust," "Gone," 84th Annual Academy Awards Feb 28, 2012

Show notes

Dave and Alonso want everyone to start behaving themselves in movie theaters, even though that seems to be a totally lost cause. They also have plenty to say about the forward momentum of Tyler Perry as a director and are much less interested in rehashing this year's Oscar show.

"Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance," "This Means War," "The Secret World of Arrietty," "Michael," "Bullhead" Feb 19, 2012

Show notes

Dave and Alonso are kind of bummed this week, because if you can't trust Nicolas Cage and the guys behind "Crank" to make an interesting movie about a flaming skeleton who rides a motorcycle, what's the point?

"The Vow," "Safe House," "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island," "Chico & Rita" Feb 12, 2012

Show notes

Dave and Alonso get side-tracked from this week movies and discuss Glitter and Sissy Spacek and Whitney Houston and Mary Kay Place and then somehow Glitter again. But they also review ths week's new movies. Except for Star Wars Episode I in 3-D, because seriously who cares.

"Chronicle," "The Woman in Black," "Big Miracle," "The Innkeepers," "Kill List," "W.E." Feb 05, 2012

Show notes

TV star and sassy lady Christy Lemire joins Alonso for mimosas and Madonna, and discussions of haunted-house movies and 1980s sex romps. Follow her on Twitter: @christylemire

"The Grey," "One for the Money," "Man on a Ledge," "Declaration of War" Jan 29, 2012

Show notes

Dave and Alonso are sort of perplexed by the careers of Katherine Heigl and Sam Worthington. Liam Neeson, on the other hand, totally gets a pass, as do movies full of references to the French New Wave.
