"You guys! This is exactly how I pictured my death!" Filmmaker Paul Feig has a new movie in theaters this week (The Housemaid), so we're rewinding ask the way back to November 2021 when we first discussed the director's work! We discuss the cast, the writing, and the politics! Their decisions to cater to the fanboys while also making fun of them! We attack both sides of the discourse surrounding this movie, Brett has trouble articulating points and your mileage may vary! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats, living together...mass hysteria! If there's something strange in YOUR neighborhood, who are YOU going to call? Hopefully not us. You CAN find us on social media, though.

"Don't put avocado on the burger!" Christmas has come early this year with a new Silent Night, Deadly Night remake in theaters. In an effort to avoid discussing the film, we go deep on Season 51 of "Saturday Night Live," plan an Eddie Murphy theme month, discuss Tucker's controversial feelings on the subject of Malcolm McDowell, and weigh in on the Quentin Tarantino/Paul Dano controversy. Don't miss this one! You better watch out, you better not cry… but it'll be hard not to because we still exist on social media!

"Hell of a day, huh? Science experiments falling from the sky." With Five Nights at Freddy's 2 coming to theaters this weekend, we're rewinding back to March of 2021 to one of our very first theme months when we talked about a video game movie involving animals attacking people.

"Styrofoam cup…" Happy Thanksgiving! This year, we're thankful for all of you AND early-'90s ephemera! To celebrate the release of this cult classic film on 4K, we're talking about Keanu Reeves's '90s filmography, that time Tucker met director/star Alex Winter, movies that share this movie's vibe (for good or ill), and Tucker's bathroom habits (we're very, very sorry).

"You are what you do. A man is defined by his actions, not his memory." With a remake of the Schwarzenegger film The Running Man doing this weekend, we take you back to last year's Arnie April 2: Austrian Boogaloo theme month, when we were joined by Stephen's college roommate and all-around good guy Phil Smith to talk about Arnie's last straight-up '80s action role! Along the way, we cast a Philip K. Dick biopic, espouse our shared love of practical effects, test Tucker's good-bad dichotomy of Verhoeven films, discuss the best version of Blade Runner to watch, rate the scientific accuracy of this movie, and manage to squeeze in the briefest of Mighty Ducks deep dives!

Week Two of our 2000s-Era Remakes Spooky-thon is back in full force as we talk the late, great Phillip Baker Hall, the difference between the James Gunn and Zack Snyder takes on DC Comics movies, why this movie is quintessential 2000s horror, and the regrettable use of the IBG horror trope.

"I want my money back. And I want angels to give it to me… and pixies to count it out… and a gnome or a hobbit or an elf to sleep at the foot of my bed, and have - I just want them all over my backyard. But no matter what happens with any of that, I DO want my money back!" Our Sketch-tember theme month comes to a close as we chat about a quintessentially Tucker movie inspired by a recurring "Mr. Show" sketch and, along the way, discuss our favorite types of cake, our thoughts on John Kricfalusi and the art he inspired, and the storied career of David 'Dave' Koechner! If we don't update these social media abound frequently enough for you, don't mind us. Y'see, we're a little drunk our own selves. * @Disenfranchpod on Bluesky [https://bsky.app/profile/disenfranchpod.bsky.social], Letterboxd [https://letterboxd.com/Disenfranchpod], and YouTube [https://youtube.com/@disenfranchpod]. * Email us your thoughts or requests to disenfranchpod@gmail.com * Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/disenfranchised/id1531328098] and Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/7zjgBXCixfCyMr59eT1kg6]! * Find Stephen at @ChewyWalrus on Bluesky [https://bsky.app/profile/chewywalrus.bsky.social] and Letterboxd [https://letterboxd.com/ChewyWalrus]. * Check out Stephen's new podcast with friend of the show Hope Stough - Welles University - on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/welless-university/id1812682642], Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/1gWA2jKtwX4Fci4whXYY8n], or wherever podcasts are sold! * If you happen to be in the Chicagoland area, catch Stephen in Inherit the Wind at Curtain Call Community Theatre in Mokena, IL opening TOMORROW (as of the release of this episode)!

"Can I get you anything else? Grappa? Wine? Cappuccino? Tickets to a Lakers game? …cheesecake? Double-A batteries? Land in Montana?" Sketch-tember continues as we discuss this disappointing cinematic effort from the famed Canadian sketch comedy troupe! Along the way, we discuss our histories with "The Kids in the Hall," the reason behind this film's signature lack of Dave Foley, which Kid in the Hall makes the best lady, and extended riffs on this release week's box office offerings!

"...are you mocking me?" Sketch-tember continues as we discuss this ill-conceived vehicle for '80s and '90s sketch comedy impressionist icon, Dana Carvey! We talk about the correlation between Carvey and SNL costar Mike Myers's views of comedy, Carvey's spiritual SNL successor, who this movie is actually for, the oeuvre of M. Night Shyamalan, and more deep-cut Indianapolis-area talk!

"Kabukiman sanjo!" With a new Toxic Avenger film on the horizon, we're talking about another Troma superhero who, unlike Toxie, didn't get a series of sequels! And, along the way, we discuss this film's aggressively problematic nature and content, Tucker's frustrations while driving in Indianapolis, our thoughts and histories with Troma films, our thoughts on theatrically-released Looney Tunes films, and Luis Guzmán's status as a "that guy" actor. Sure, we may be depressed and we may be confused, but we're NOT turning Japanese!

"Don't underestimate a straight white man's propensity for violence…" This week, after the release of Freakier Friday in theaters, we're talking about this body swap slasher and, with it, the work of Christopher Landon, the fun of a well-executed genre mashup, this incredibly talented cast, and how nice it is to be reminded about how funny Vince Vaughn can be! Cue the creepy dudes in the masks. Okay, so we're not THAT creepy… and the masks are social media… I dunno, just give us a follow, why not? * @Disenfranchpod on Bluesky [https://bsky.app/profile/disenfranchpod.bsky.social], Letterboxd [https://letterboxd.com/Disenfranchpod], and YouTube [https://youtube.com/@disenfranchpod]. * Email us your thoughts or requests to disenfranchpod@gmail.com * Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/disenfranchised/id1531328098] and Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/7zjgBXCixfCyMr59eT1kg6]! * Find Stephen at @ChewyWalrus on Bluesky [https://bsky.app/profile/chewywalrus.bsky.social] and Letterboxd [https://letterboxd.com/ChewyWalrus]. * Check out Stephen's new podcast with friend of the show Hope Stough - Welles University - on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/welless-university/id1812682642], Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/1gWA2jKtwX4Fci4whXYY8n], or wherever podcasts are sold! * Find Brett at @sus_warlock on Letterboxd [https://letterboxd.com/sus_warlock]. * Find Tucker at @icenine09 on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/icenine09] and Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/icenine09/] and @tuck_mugs on Instagram [https://instagram.com/tuck_mugs]. * Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus content, including bi-weekly episodes of What Are We Watching? at https://patreon.com/Disenfranchpod
