Show notes

The onslaught of television and movie viewing options continues this week, but Ronald, Steve, and John volunteer as tribute to suggest where your time is best spent. We start off by diving in to some TV newness, including Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi’s new coming-of-age dramedy Reservation Dogs, Starz’s wrestling drama Heels, and the conclusion of Mike White’s The White Lotus, before breaking down the newest G.I. Joe big-screen effort, Snake Eyes, and the atmospheric thriller The Night House.

Ep. 310-The Suicide Squad and Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers Aug 13, 2021

Show notes

Steve, Ron, and John let you know what to expect when Nine Perfect Strangers, a mysterious drama series with a killer cast, premieres on Hulu on August 18. Then they have an open-ended and somewhat worrying discussion about James Gunn’s wildly entertaining new film, The Suicide Squad, and what its box office performance might say about the future of big-budget movies.

Ep. 309-Jungle Cruise, Old, The Green Knight, and the State of the Film Industry Aug 06, 2021

Show notes

Ron, Steve, and John catch up on the state of the film industry as it tries to lurch back into life after lockdown. Then they move on to some thoughts about recent films such as Jungle Cruise, Old, and The Green Knight. A pretty good slate of topics, but will it play in Peoria? Find out within!

Ep. 308-Watch-em-all: A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child & Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare Jul 30, 2021

Show notes

It’s a boy! A boy named Freddy Krueger who just wants to possess your unborn child, in hopes of returning to the world and… what exactly? Oh, more killing? Very surprising, Fred, very surprising indeed. Good thing Ron, Steve and John are here to compare notes on the fifth and sixth entries in the increasingly elaborate Elm Street saga, so maybe we can find out how to vanquish this guy once and for all! Also, that new Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailer is discussed.

Ep. 307-Fear Street, Zola, Never Have I Ever, Space Jam: A New Legacy, and More! Jul 23, 2021

Show notes

Ron, Steve, and John are back with a regular, non-Marvel Schmarvel episode of the show. And first, they have to work through some (wait for it) MCU news! But then it’s smooth sailing with no superheroes in sight! Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy! Janicza Bravo’s bold new comedy, Zola! Returning sitcom Never Have I Ever! All this gets a moment in the sun, as well as some basketball movie with Bugs Bunny.

Marvel Schmarvel Nexus Event: Loki and Black Widow Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

The Marvel Schmarvel YouTube show has crossed over into the main Movie Schmovie podcast feed! That means you get to hear Ronald, Steve, and John (or their evil variants, it’s unclear) as they discuss the end of Loki Season One and the latest, much delayed MCU feature film, Black Widow. Have they found their glorious purpose? Or are they destined for the void? The answer awaits you.

Ep. 306-Loki, Summer of Soul, Fear Street Part One: 1994, Werewolves Within Jul 09, 2021

Show notes

Just read the title! That's what the guys talk about.

Ep. 305-The Tomorrow War, F9: The Fast Saga, Infinite, Tribeca Film Festival Jul 02, 2021

Show notes

This catchup episode covers a lot of ground, so take this one a quarter mile at a time! The guys talk about the Tribeca Film Festival, F9: The Fast Saga, and two new sci-fi action flicks: Mark Wahlberg's Infinite, and Chris Pratt's The Tomorrow War.

Ep. 304-A Quiet Place Part II, In The Heights Jun 18, 2021

Show notes

Ron, Steve, and John try to keep their voices down as they discuss John Krasinski and Emily Blunt’s A Quiet Place sequel, then take to the streets to sing about such worthy topics as tradition, flavored ice, and the film adaptation of hit musical In The Heights, currently on HBO Max. Also: Steve and John describe their first theatrical experiences in over a year!

Ep. 303-The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It Jun 11, 2021

Show notes

Ron, Steve, and John crack open another case from the Conjuring-verse, in which Ed and Lorraine Warren ditch the haunted houses for a demonic murder mystery. This is also the first Conjuring film without originating director James Wan. Does this sturdy franchise weather the changes with its scary style intact?
