Tip Tops and Flip Flops

Great actors make great movies, but they also make some pure, 100% garbage. Just ask Hope Cavendish and Jessica Durand. Each week, one of them watches an actor's highest-rated movie while the other gal watches the lowest. Hilarity, revelations, and true confusion ensue while they unpack the peaks and troughs of cinema.<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Zoey Deutch

You’re in for a wild ride on this one, listener. Hope watched Zoey Deutch’s best movie according to Rotten Tomatoes (Set it Up) and Jessica watched Ms. Deutch’s worst (Dirty Grandpa) — a movie that Jessica believes to be close to 12 Angry Men in terms of quality. The gals dive in and discuss face vibes, photography, golf, and The Suite Life on Deck. Plus, is Robert De Niro the comedy actor of the Silent Generation? He just might be. He. Just. Might. Be!Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Henry Fonda

Our third Henry and our first old timey dude – what a day! Jessica watched Henry Fonda's best movie (cinema classic 12 Angry Men) and Hope watched his worst (a Jaws knockoff called Tentacles). You'd think they wouldn't find a way to bring up Love Island, but they do!!! The gals also touch on religion, sleep schedules, and BONKERS true stories about science teachers vs. animals. Hope's audio is a little odd, but we solider on like the octopus in Tentacles!Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Jane Lynch

She is the moment, now come on now: it's Jane Lynch! Hope watched Ms. Lynch's best movie according to the critics of Rotten Tomatoes (Best in Show) and Jessica watched her worst (Post Grad). For probably the first time ever – we have not done the research, so who's to say for sure – this is the first ep where Hope and Jessica have both seen each other's film! They talk all things Glee, belt buckles, Delaware, and dog names. It's a blast and a half.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

James Earl Jones

This week we’re tackling James Earl Jones’s highs and lows. Jessica watched his best movie (Dr. Strangelove) and Hope watched his worst (Casper: A Spirited Beginning), and bombs went off in both films. They talk about ghost rules, face blindness, and the college admissions scandal. It’s a whirlwind!Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Cameron Diaz

A true icon of the screen like Cameron Diaz deserves way better than these movies. Hope watched her best film according to the critics of Rotten Tomatoes (Being John Malkovich) and Jessica watched the worst (Keys to Tulsa). Fair warning: Hope gasps a NUMBER of times in this ep, so get ready for that. The gals chat eggs, therapy, the richter scale, and wild Chicago memories. It's a big one!Real Warning: sexual assault is mentioned and discussed multiple times in this episode. Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Josh Peck

It's atomic bombs vs. dance bombs. Jessica watched Josh Peck's highest-rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes (Oppenheimer) and Hope watched Mr. Peck's worst (Battle of the Year). They dive into these films and tackle everything from misogyny to breakdancing to fedoras. They also discuss the beautiful program Selling the OC, which you should go watch right now. All around there are some low highs and high lows this week. Enjoy!!Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Courteney Cox

To quote that Dance Moms producer talking about Abby Lee Miller, "She's zooming, dude." Jessica watched Zoom, Courteney Cox's worst film according to Rotten Tomatoes, and Hope watched Cox's best: Scream 2. This is an ep to remember! The gals ZOOM into the films at hand and discuss superpowers, Girl Guide oaths, and milkshake fingers. They also touch on fanfiction, but who's surprised there?Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Jack Black

Sometimes you must go to school and rock. By that we mean Jessica watched Jack Black's highest-rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes (School of Rock, of course), while Hope watched his worst (Envy) – a film with the most unhinged premise we've tackled thus far. They chat about so many things. Tattoos! Dead horses! Colonoscopies kind of! And they make it clear that if Miranda Cosgrove ever decides to run for office, she's got at least two ardent supporters.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Henry Golding

In perhaps our wildest episode yet, we tackle Henry Golding's oeuvre! Hope watched his tip top movie (Crazy Rich Asians) and Jessica watched his flip flop movie (Assassin Club). In addition, they discuss many, many things, including 500,000-word fanfiction, One Tree Hill, and completely accidental racism as children. It's redeem or be redeemed.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Rihanna

We're dealing with THE maker of genius tunes like Disturbia and Pon de Replay: it's Rihanna!!! Jessica watched Rihanna's highest-rated film (Guava Island) and Hope reunited with an old friend in Rihanna's lowest-rated movie (Battleship). In shocking news, both gals had a lot of fun with these motion pictures. They talk about water displacement, eye contact during dancing, the definition of physical therapy, and so, so much more.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Michelle Pfeiffer

The gals attempt to celebrate Michelle Pfeiffer by discussing her highest and lowest-rated films on Rotten Tomatoes. Hope watched the best (The Fabulous Baker Boys) and Jessica, thankfully, got to watch the worst (New Year's Eve) – and she cried during this movie!! They chat dog names, singing etiquette, and ball drops. Plus, if you have a brother, would you ever address him as "little brother?"

Kevin James

KJ! KJ! KJ! Jessica watched Kevin James's highest rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes (Monster House), and, between naps, Hope watched his lowest (True Memoirs of an International Assassin). The gals really do talk everything this week, from soup nicknames to Lego hair to the incredible announcement of a new Downton Abbey movie. Plus, if you have dirty windows, just go ahead and clean them.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Will Smith

We're in the After Earth – well Jessica is, as she had to soldier through Will Smith's worst movie. Hope got to watch Men in Black and had a blast, so this ep really runs the emotional gamut. The gals talk slaps, badminton, journals, and, of course, Kevin James. They also ask why so many sci-fi movies are obsessed with pheromones, and what exactly are pheromones.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Mark Ruffalo

Apologies for the slight delay – we're back and better than ever! This week, the gals are talking Mark Ruffalo’s highs and lows, from best picture winners to best-picture-winner remakes. Plus, Hope laughs too close to the mic, Jessica asks a very important question about 9/11 magnets, and various types of skates come into play in a big way.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Audrey Hepburn

We're going back in time, baby! Hope watched Audrey Hepburn's best movie (How to Steal a Million) and Jessica watched the worst (Laughter in Paradise). They talk all things magnets, swell tomatoes, the sands/hands of time, and pranks. And they even do some of that talking in bad French.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Dev Patel

This week, the gals appreciate the truly great act-eur that is Dev Patel. They watch his best and worst films (Only Yesterday and The Last Airbender) and they discuss periods, water, and the range of movies with "hotel" in the title.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Emma Watson

Somehow neither Hope nor Jessica has watched Harry Potter this week; instead they've experienced Ballet Shoes (Ms. Watson's highest-rated) and Regression (Ms. Watson's lowest). They discuss Satanic panic, a towed car, fanfiction, and Fossils – yes, that should be capitalized.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Hilary Duff

Why not (why not) watch legend Hilary Duff's best and worst films? Sadly, A Cinderella Story and Cadet Kelly do not take home the title of "best" and that is no joke genuinely sad, but alas! The gals discuss bugs, Tanzania, and, of course, Haylie Duff.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Christian Bale

You may know him as Batman, or the guy in shorts in The Big Short, but Jessica knows him as nothing: it's Christian Bale week! The gals tackle his best and worst films and discuss kings Henry V, Cnut the Great, and Dongus the Inquisitive. They also wonder if sentient mandolins make sexual partners. Lots of things happen.Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?

Taylor Lautner

Coming to you live from the floor (in Hope's case), this week's ep is Taylor Lautner. Jessica watched the best (Twilight), Hope watched the worst (The Ridiculous 6), and, shockingly, Kevin James is in neither. The real question is: Are you Team Jacob, Team Edward, Team Kevin James, or Team Olly Murs?Is there an actor you think would be great for the pod?
