Remember meeting the parents of your significant other? Did you accidently flush the toilet that backed up the septum tank? Did you volunteer for a polygraph test? Did you tell a story about milking cats? Did you set fire to their lawn? Did you try your hardest to to impress them? I bet it was memorable though. Instead of remembering that awkwardness, let me share the story of Greg Focker, starring Ben Stiller and Robert De Nero.
Can haunted rides kill? Not necessary, but can theme park rides kill our belief that Eddie Murphy is a good actor? Let's find out. As Disney was getting into adapting their rides into movies, how successful were they with The Haunted Mansion? One of the most beloved rides in Disneyland comes to... life? Afterlife?
Hello there ghouls and girls! Would you like to hear a scary tale this Halloween season? A story of a boy you likes a girl named Hannah. A boy named Champ who screams like a girl. An author who is tormented by a dummy of his own making. And two grown men talking about ordering books from the Scholastic Book Club pamphlet. Then do we have a story for you, "The Cuckoo Podcast of Doom!"
Did you have a house in your neighborhood that you thought for sure was haunted? Or a house with a cranky old man telling you to get off his lawn? Well this movie has both! Join DJ, Chowder, and Jenny (along with a star studded cast of 2006) as they try to save their neighborhood from the MONSTER HOUSE!
28 years after the original Tron dazzled and confused audiences, technology has progressed enough to bring us a new installment into the Tron world. (As well as all those kids that watched the original grew up to work in Hollywood.) With updated visuals, a trip into the uncanny valley, and an impressive Daft Punk soundtrack. How does this one stand next to Tron 1982?
In 1982, a group of talented artists and a director with a wild idea was able to convince Disney to fund a movie that inspired so many future artists, confused adults about what computers were like inside, and started a cult following of glowing cloths. Join us was visit the Encom 511 and see if Jeff Bridges can stop a rogue computer program from... becoming sentient?
Ah... the early 90s, when Branden Fraser was barely starting out, Pauly Shore was doing his thing, Sean Astin wasn't Samwise, and a cave man was weezing the juice at the corner store. What does that even mean?! Join us in visiting this 90s high school movie with a prehistoric twist! "Don't tax my gig so hardcore cruster."
Let's return to the early 90s when roller blading was the coolest thing you could do. A calm, cool, collected California boy is sent to the Midwest where he has to surf on his bed and try to impress the locals with his roller blading skills. "Listen bra, how about we talk this out over a basket of fries?" Join us for our review of Airborne!
We've seen him scared. Seen him save Christmas. Now let's see how he fares in High School! With the help of German scientists Ernest will gain the brains and confidence to save his school and his job... or will he Ernest things?! Oh yeah! And Sarah Chalke is there.
Did you think that E.T. ever needed to be reinterpreted? No? Well Mac and Me did it! Complete with Coca Cola, McDonalds, and a kid in a wheelchair that falls off a cliff side to his... not death! What are the MACs power set? And will they eventually drink all the Coca Cola in the world? Let's find out!
Hello Navigator. Where would you like to go? 8 years into the future?! To see all the superhero movies made up until then. COMPLIANCE! In this one, a little boy is taken into a future he's been missing, can Paul Reubens help him figure out what's going on or will the 80s government study him for the rest of life? Let's find out!
Remember Bastion from the NeverEnding Story? Well, he's back from Fantasia as the prefect child. So perfect his parents will use him to win little league games and complain that he's too reliable. With his friend Turtle, DARYL will learn how to be a kid and how to fly a stealth jet. Have you seen D.A.R.Y.L. before?
Ever had dreams of circuit boards that could take you into space?! Then you might have what it takes to be an Explorer... or a Dreamer? Not sure, we should ask Ethan Hawke. Joins us as we review another movie made by the iconic Gremlins Director, Joe Dante!
Why do we love Fridays? They mark the end of a work week. You can get some flat mozzarella sticks there. Fast food places give a away free fries (with a purchase of $1 or more). And they have a tendency to get freaky! Not that kind of freaky! But before they get freakier, let's go back to 2003 to watch little Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis swap bodies.
In the sky, is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's a dog with a wonky ear! Oh, and Superman is there too. The time has finally arrived, has James Gunn redeemed Superman? Is the DCU ready for their own successful franchise? Before we talk about that, let's talk about what happened here.
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to have John Travolta's face? How about Nicolas Cage's face?! In the peak of 90's action movies, John Woo takes us on a action packed journey with these two iconic actors. Face swaps, plane chase, speed boat chase, unnecessary flips and dives over furniture! Are you ready for this?
Remember that Fantastic Four movie that came out in the 90s? No? Huh! Me neither. Marvel went to great lengths to erase this movie from the world but the first family found a way to survive thanks to a bootleg copy and dedicated fans! Punch this one into your search engine and enjoy Dr. Doom clicking his gloves from scene to scene. Enjoy!
"Jacket on and jacket off" are back! And with a clever dialog exploitation the Miyaji and Han universes are now one! "Two Branches, One Tree." After our Karate Kid journey, it only made sense we review Karate Kid Legends. Get the popcorn out and let's Miyagi-Do This!
As we approach the One Year milestone, what better way to celebrate then by watching a movie of the same name? Year One, a late 2000s comedy that was riding the wave of raunchy comedies, Jack Black being Jack Black and Michael Cera being well... Michael Cera! Join us as we travel through some biblical locations with these out of place characters.
After all the Superman movies we watched, we couldn't move on without visiting the show that brought Superman to a new generation and showed that the kryptonian's story can be modernized, teen angst and all. How many times can we see Tom Welling get hit by a car? All the time! "Somebody saaaaave me!!"
