Movies You Forgot You Forgot

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to give it its due. The Stephen Spielberg directed Harrison Ford starring belated Indy sequel that recooks the archaeological ingredients to less winning effect. Joe and Adam descend into arguments about lead lined fridges, Shia the Beef, when a veto is not a veto, and why Joe loves Stargate SG1 but hates the film it’s based on.

Join our discord server: https://discord.gg/fCcHuWBADB Joe & Adam discuss Ang Lee's 2003 film Brokeback Mountain, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger. Also discussed: Taylor Sheridan's American Frontier trilogy, which is the superior Quaid brother? There's a whole bit about A Dog's Purpose which may or may not have made the cut. And a terrifically salvaged box office game.

Adam digs out his cinema ticket stubs from 1999 and runs through what he saw that year. It’s that simple. A filler episode while Joe is busy.  A man listing films and reflecting on where he sat and how much the ticket was. Adam’s got stubs running up to 2004… it’s a feature that could run and run.

Welcome to the Where the Wild Things Are episode, where Joe & Adam dig into the Spike Jonze directed 2009 grown-up take on the kids book of the same name. Why did they make a children’s book into a grown up film? Did Adam really try and write his own children’s book? How hard is it to be a kid actor? Also; we miss James Gandolfini.

An unscheduled but deeply canon (cannon!) episode diving into 2003’s Master & Commander: FAR SIDE OF THE WORLD, directed by Pyiter Weir and starring Rusty Crowe and Dr Paul Bettany. Based on the book of the same name. The chaps chat soggy middles, the unsettling stirring notions of naval flicks and the oddity that is this non-story led blockbuster.

No Brother, Where Art Thou? Well, it turns out, not on the internet available legally in the United Kingdom. So, today's episode was instead a mish-mash of things we've seen recently, including the superb The Ballad of Wallis Island. Find out what Joe thinks of the new Harry Potter cast. Is Babygirl any good? And why did Adam watch Dark Waters? All of this and more on today's episode. 

A whizz through the Spike Jonze directed rom-dram-com about a loner (Joaquin ‘Simon’ Phoenix obvs) falling in love with his AI operating system (voiced by Samantha Morton, oh no wait, she was replaced by Scarlett Johnansson). What is sci-fi? How does this relate to Lost in Translation, and a belated review of the Quantum of Solace Bond song.

Episode 100 is finally here. You chose it, the audience selected 2008's Marc Foster directed Quantum of Solace, the Bond sequel (or is it?) to Casino Royale. Joe & Adam dive into meaty topics such as: is Daniel Craig the best Bond? Does Bond survive into the 2020s? Who should be the next Bond? And why do we even care anymore? All of this and more on today's episode. 

Some say these are filler episodes, some like them, some find them more approchable; depends where you’re at in life. It’s a loosy goosy format where Joe and Adam chat about some of the movies they’ve seen lately - they don’t chat about the movies they forgot they forgot. In this episode: Joe takes down Barbie Joe takes down The Departed Joe takes down Happy Gilmore 2 Adam, on the other hand, as always, is full of light and hope. Got a film you forgot you forgot?

This one’s for the fans, part 2… Adam & Joe sift through the many, many (many) films (or movies) that listeners have suggested for the show. The goal: to whittle them down to a shorter list that people can then vote on. That’s the plan, except Joe keeps digressing…  Join us on our Discord channel if you want to get voting:  https://discord.gg/6zdrRHsE8n Or just listen to see what really counts as a Movie You Forgot You Forgot - and what doesn’t.

Facing the most influential films of all time off against each other, for a fifth time.  The staggeringly good films keep coming; can Joe finally claim a victory? 

On the docket, indie fave Kevin Smith’s Dogma from that year of years: 1999. Will Joe & Adam still be charmed by its cheeky script and edgy subject matter… or will they think it’s fairly dated and very baggy? Affleck’s great in it, that’s for certain. There’s also Smith’s wider filmography to chat about and the inevitable Nolan sidebar. Got a film you forgot you forgot? Hit us up at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts, episode suggestions, or just some light praise. The best Forgot You Forgot offerings make it onto the sacred Communal List - one will get picked soon! You can also follow Adam @errorofways on Letterboxd and Instagram; on one he rates and reviews the films he watches, on the other he posts collages and the odd video.

Facing the most influential films of all time off against each other, for a fourth time.  With yet more incredible movies surfacing, can Joe finally get the best of Adam and overthrow his dominion? And why *does* Jane hate toilet talk so much?

The Most Influential Films of all Time Top Trumps game is back for part three - we just can’t get enough of it, even if you can. You know the score by name: Joe & Adam have a randomly selected deck of 15 top top films. There’s 10 categories (box office, critical acclaim, cultural influence etc), each scored from 0 to 10.  As is the essence of TT, Indie darling flicks can square up to stone-cold classic fun blockbusters… and win! On this episode, Joe is thirsting for revenge after a second bitter defeat. Boy is that boy cranky. There’s broad film chat, plus a silly phone call or two. We will get to Dogma soon… promise. It’s not streaming though and Adam is hunting a cheap enough secondhand copy (harder than you think). Did he have a special edition US region disc back in the day? Of course he did. Did he give away because his multi-region dvd player broke? You betcha.  Thanks for listening. Email us at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts and feelings. And follow Adam on Letterboxd and Instagram @errorofways. Joe’s on X - Google him - but he tweets about football mostly. Mostly.

There are many, many spoilers for the film 28 Years Later in this episode. Joe & Adam record a special post-cinema episode of MYFYF in honour of the Danny Boyle directed, Alex Garland scripted, long-awaited 28 Years Later. 

Based on the book of the same name, by Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go is a 2011 film starring Keira Knightley, Carey Mulligan and Andrew Garfield. Joe & Adam dive into: what is a sci-fi? Was the indie scene spared Garfield when he became Spiderman? And does Mulligan have it? Plus more.

We’re back for Round Two of the game that has captured the hearts and minds of no one, but is a fun format that lets Adam & Joe chat about great movies for a change. Who will win in the ultimate battle of Spirited Away vs Anchorman (not an actual face off, but you get the gist). We’ve got a big deck of films that we pick from, but send us your must-haves and we’ll tot the scores and add them in. It’s moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com.
