INHERENT VICE, SELMA, AND THE WORST MOVIES OF 2014 on Episode #26

Joaquin Phoenix in

Joaquin Phoenix in “Inherent Vice”

We promised it in last week’s episode and we didn’t deliver, so this week we finally get to the worst movies of 2014. Since we like to save the worst for last, we talk about two new movies we saw first: INHERENT VICE and SELMA. Tangents this week include veganism, pyschadelic drugs, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, and THE LONG GOODBYE among other things. The episode is a little longer than usual, but that’s mostly because we were having so much fun talking about farts. That and Evan almost fell asleep editing the episode. We promise it will be shorter next time.

The Best Movies of 2014 (if we do say so ourselves) on Episode #25

Macon Blair in "Blue Ruin."

Macon Blair in “Blue Ruin.”

Happy new year, Spoilerpiecers! On this episode we each talk about our 10 favorite movies of 2014. There’s a lot of agreement and lots of disagreement. And then, totally organically, we venture into talk about cocaine, Aviator sunglasses, and Kenny Loggins. (Gotta love the tangents.) We hit upon LOCKE, THE DOUBLE, ENEMY, FRANK, SNOWPIERCER, ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE, BLUE RUIN, COLD IN JULY, JODOROWSKY’S DUNE…just to name nine. There are a bunch more. We’ll get to the worst movies of 2014 next time. Sorry for the abrupt ending, but these things happen around the holidays.

INTO THE WOODS, ANNIE, and UNBROKEN! And Merry Christmas on Episode #24

"This is a crap movie but I'll put my heart and soul into it because Im Meryl Streep."

“This is a crap movie but I’ll put my heart and soul into it because I’m Meryl Streep.”

Merry Christmas! Happy (belated) Hanukkah! And, DUDE: Dave goes OFF on an epic anti-musical rant before we even get to INTO THE WOODS. Plus, Kris takes ANNIE apart, and Evan was pulled in two directions by UNBROKEN. We make some Marky Mark jokes, and the ending is a little looser than normal, but that’s because we all wanted to get home for tha holidays. Hope you got everything you wanted this year, from world peace to THE INTERVIEW On Demand!

THE INTERVIEW cancellation and THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES on Episode #23

Are they smiling now? Who the hell knows!

Are they smiling now? Who the hell knows!

Because we’ve never seen anything like this in our lives – “unprecedented,” as Kris says – we thought we’d talk about THE INTERVIEW and its cancelled release, and what the implications are for the film industry, and, at the risk of sounding hoity-toity, life in general. Plus, we all weigh in on the awfulness of the final chapter of Peter Jackson’s bloated Hobbit crapfest. There are lots of tangents, too, as Kris reveals his appreciation for THIS IS THE END a movie Dave can’t imagine anyone would ever like, and Evan clues us in as to why he pronounces Smaug the Dragon’s name the way he does.

Chris Rock and Rosario Dawson in TOP FIVE

Chris Rock and Rosario Dawson in TOP FIVE

Sadly, Dave is away this week, which means we had to record at Evan’s and he had to edit, so hopefully we sound okay. And if we don’t, too bad! Anyway, Dede Crimmins joins us again as we talk about Chris Rock’s TOP FIVE and Ridley Scott’s EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS. We also talk about Cards Against Humanity’s Ten Days or Whatever of Kwanzaa, our top five rappers, Jean Claude Van Damme’s poetic turns of phrase, and films we watched at home before voting on our awards for BOFCA.

THE BABADOOK and UNDER THE SKIN on Episode #21

the-babadook

Hey-o! It’s THE BABADOOK on Episode #21. Like, for realz, this movie is scary as hell. It’s also awards-caliber excellent. We also get into UNDER THE SKIN because Evan saw it and it’s awards season, so it’s totes worth talking about. Plus, Dave pretends he’s Ed Bradley from 60 MINUTES while Kris regales us with his favorite tales about YTMND from the Internet of yore.

Horrible Bosses 2

Happy Thanksgiving! Before you head off to the movie theater after turkey, check out the gang’s thoughts on HORRIBLE BOSSES 2, Tommy Lee Jones’ THE HOMESMAN, and the goofiness of PENGUINS OF MADAGASCAR. Evan, Kris, and Dave all offer thoughts on the reasoning behind the latest HORRIBLE BOSSES debacle, there’s a lengthy debate over the merits of  THE HOMESMAN, and the penguins? Well, penguins are cute, damn it!

THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY – Part 1 and CALVARY on Episode #19

hunger-games-mockingjay-part-1

Can you say marketing ploy? That’s right! It’s our yap-fest about THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY PART 1, a movie we can’t stop discussing even though we try to many times. Then we talk about CALVARY and wonder why Brendan Gleeson isn’t a star. But perhaps most strangely, Evan lets Dave stroll through his Tinder account while Kris seems aghast.

DUMB AND DUMBER TO and ROSEWATER on Episode #18

5701_FPT_00005R

It’s a mix of the highbrow and lowbrow this week as we talk about the complexities of Iran in Jon Stewart’s ROSEWATER, and the comedic atrocities of DUMB AND DUMBER TO, a 20-years-later sequel that no one wanted. Or if they DID want it, they wanted it 15 years ago. Plus, how many viewers will get that the “to” is misspelled on purpose?

interstellar_a

We cover a lot of ground this week. Christopher Nolan’s INTERSTELLAR! BIG HERO 6! And Evan brings up that last week we forgot to talk about GHOULIES (which screened at the Halloween horror overnighter that our guest Deirdre Crimmins and Dave talked about). Plus, we talk about Robert Zemeckis and his crappy motion capture movies; Eddie Money songs; Evan cracks himself up; Kris mentions that he does research; and Dave tries to remember the theme song to the Saturday morning cartoon DROIDS.
