Episode 133- Black Sheep (1996) May 17, 2023

Show notes

Mike (Chris Farley), a slovenly gym teacher, has a terrible habit of showing up at the wrong time and embarrassing his brother, Al (Tim Matheson), who happens to be running for governor. Hoping to save his campaign, Al assigns his aide, Steve (David Spade), to take Mike to a remote cabin and hide out there for the remainder of the campaign. In the woods, the two men discover dangers that make them long for the sleazy political operatives back in the big city.

It's a blast from the past as we delve into the mid-90's for some Chris Farley humor! The guys discuss the background of Farley, the film production, character development and jokes that still hold their own. Nathan picked something that nostalgia couldn't contain for our Political Comedy episode and we were happy he did.

Episode 132- Open Range (2003) May 03, 2023

Show notes

Boss Spearman (Robert Duvall) and his cowhands Charley (Kevin Costner) and Mose (Abraham Benrubi) are driving cattle across a large expanse of country. When Mose ventures into a sparse village to buy a few necessities, he is met with violent hostility from Denton Baxter (Michael Gambon), an affluent landowner, and his right-hand man, Poole (James Russo). When Mose doesn't come back, Boss and Charley realize he's in trouble, so they plot to get him back and get revenge on those who captured him.

We've got cattle, we've got a great cast, hell we even have a shootout that can rival Tombstone itself! Jack made a good call when choosing "Open Range" (2003) and we have a great time talking the actors, trivia for behind the scenes, and just love for a simple and solid story being told. So why don't you heat up some coffee, find the cattle and make sure that the local law-men are knocked out. Yeehaw!

Episode 131- Tremors 6: A Cold Day in Hell (2018) Apr 19, 2023

Show notes

Burt Gummer suspects that giant worms are being utilized as weapons at a research facility in Canada. He soon finds himself in a race against time to create an antidote from one of the creature's venom to save his own life.

It's another year and another Tremors movie! We're kicking off Season 6: Fist Full of Feels with 2018's Tremors 6: A Cold Day in Hell! This is definitely a different Tremors film, but thankfully... there's Michael Gross. The boys discuss the crazy antics, the haphazard plot points and just all the nonsensical happenings throughout this movie. The homages to previous films is a good nod, Michael Gross as Burt is always a joy, but man oh man... this is something. Join us wont you!

Episode 130- The Mummy (1999) Apr 05, 2023

Show notes

The Mummy is a rousing, suspenseful and horrifying epic about an expedition of treasure-seeking explorers in the Sahara Desert in 1925. Stumbling upon an ancient tomb, the hunters unwittingly set loose a 3,000-year-old legacy of terror, which is embodied in the vengeful reincarnation of an Egyptian priest who had been sentenced to an eternity as one of the living dead.

We discuss the impact that this film has had, our LOVE for Brendan Fraser and just all the feels for this action adventure comedy! What a cast! The costuming! Parts actually being culturually and historically accurate! Come on, how can you not love this film?

Episode 129- Westworld (1973) Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

Westworld is a futuristic theme park where paying guests can pretend to be gunslingers in an artificial Wild West populated by androids. After paying a sizable entrance fee, Blane (James Brolin) and Martin (Richard Benjamin) are determined to unwind by hitting the saloons and shooting off their guns. But when the system goes haywire and Blane is killed in a duel with a robotic gunslinger (Yul Brynner), Martin's escapist fantasy suddenly takes on a grim reality.

Nathan has chosen a staple in the Science Fiction genre and we couldn't be more pleased. What world would you go to? We discuss the worlds, the interactions of the people and the machines, the craziness of the freedom from rules and the consequences for it. What happened during the recording? How about the actors? So saddle up and lets all head out for the BEST vacation money can buy!

What Are You Watching- Part 18 Mar 08, 2023

Show notes

In this "in between" episodes upload, we'll cover our usual "What Are You Watching?" discussion that we've done on our normal episodes. We talk shop on our movie viewings, tv series and maybe a documentary or two. Nathan might chime in with what board games he's been trying and we can always count on host Jack to give us an update on his current gaming on his Xbox.

In the wake of the delay for Ep. 129 "Westworld", Jack and Drew have banded together to catch up on what they've been doing lately. Nathan is still MIA at this moment but will return to us to discuss his "Science Fiction" movie of choice soon! We've got WW2 movies, The Last of Us, Drew's many Movie Scavenger Hunt finds, and we also learn what it takes to breed magical creatures in Hogwarts Legacy with Jack.

Reel Feels Special Release- Wedding Crashers (2005) Feb 22, 2023

Show notes

Jeremy (Vince Vaughn) and John (Owen Wilson) are divorce mediators who spend their free time crashing wedding receptions. For the irrepressible duo, there are few better ways to drink for free and bed vulnerable women. So when Secretary of the Treasury William Cleary (Christopher Walken) announces the wedding of his daughter, the pair make it their mission to crash the high-profile event. But their game hits a bump in the road when John locks eyes with bridesmaid Claire (Rachel McAdams).

To say that this week has been hectic is a complete understatement. From people getting sick and family members being in the emergency room... a recording wasn't in the books. So what we're gonna give you folks is something special. This was a grand recording that host Nathan and Drew put together before host Jack went off and got hitched and gave it to our Patreon members. So everyone gets to feel like a Reel Feels Patreon member today. We thank you all for understanding and we'll get back to our regularly scheduled episodes soon. You're the Reelest!

Episode 128- Princess Mononoke (1997) Feb 08, 2023

Show notes

In the 14th century, the harmony that humans, animals and gods have enjoyed begins to crumble. The protagonist, young Ashitaka - infected by an animal attack, seeks a cure from the deer-like god Shishigami. In his travels, he sees humans ravaging the earth, bringing down the wrath of wolf god Moro and his human companion Princess Mononoke. Hiskattempts to broker peace between her and the humans brings only conflict.

There are very few definitive movies that encompass the field of anime that set standards - Miyazaki's "Princess Mononoke" is for sure one of them. Jack has chosen a stellar film for the boys to discuss today. The voice casting is on point, the action, the story, moral lessons and connection to Japanese mythology is all through the roof. Join us for a deep dive into this brilliant film from 1997 and be sure to pay tribute to the Spirit of the Forest.

Episode 127- Dungeons & Dragons (2000) Jan 25, 2023

Show notes

In the Kingdom of Izmer, wizards use their magic to rule the land. The young Empress Savina (Thora Birch) desires to use magic for good, but the evil Profion (Jeremy Irons) plans to utilize his powers to usurp the throne from Savina and subject the kingdom to totalitarian rule. Profion gains control of the kingdom's golden dragons, while Savina sets out to win control of the even more powerful red dragons, gaining the alliance of a motley group of individuals along the way.

We're heading back to the year 2000 for some of the hammiest and scene chewing acting we can throw a dice at! It's time for Dungeons & Dragons folks! Drew has chosen a childhood favorite of his for our "Magic & Sorcery" genre. The acting, the script, and the casting... it's not great. However, the nostalgia and the fun quirkiness of the movie overall still hold a true to today. We laugh at the insane antics of the characters, a dwarf who screams, magic spells that could've been better and much more! So pour yourself a Mountain Dew, grab some snacks and lets roll!
