We're kicking off 2024 with some Not Quite Canon! Join Mike and Paul as they welcome special guest and valued friend Tim Bavlnka to discuss Dax Flame's movie about the making of YouTube, which is very appropriately titled... "Making YouTube". Please note that this episode was recorded awhile back and sat on the shelf for a bit, so some of the information is a little outdated. It's fine. Dax Flame, if you're out there... hope you enjoy our review!  You can watch the full film for free on YouTube, of course!

Happy Thanksgiving, Maniacs! Welcome to our very first (and very last) Potluck Special. Grab a plate and load up on some great holiday movies with us! This is something we recorded a couple years ago and never put out - until now! Thanks to AI technology, we were able to fix some mistakes and finally release this special episode. So please enjoy, and leave a comment below to let us know what movies YOU are thankful for this year!

In 2020, J and Mike discussed Ginger Snaps. This time J and Paul discuss Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed, complete with updated cinematic universe theories! Mike calls in on this episode. We really don't know where he was or what he was doing but he sent us photos of what he was looking at. Come to think of it, we haven't heard from him in quite some time. Should we call somebody? Here's Jason Huls' newest film, That Damned Yellow Raincoat.

This is it, everyone! It's been a wild ride over the last few years, but it's time to bring season 6 to a close. The boys laugh, they pray, and they even suggest who you should talk to for a belated Thanksgiving dinner in this long lost finale episode! And they also talk about the 2016 animated film, The Misty Green Sky, which you can watch it on Tubi here. Thank you, listeners, for sharing the laughs, the fun, and the love.

Thank you listeners for your concern and impatience for our episode on The Misty Green Sky. We assure you, it is on the way, but in the immortal words of Jeff Goldblum, life uh... life gets in the way. As an apology for the lateness of our final episode of the season, here's a Quick Take of Chris and Mike laughing for half an hour. There's also some discussion of Ninja 3: The Domination.

You have questions.  If you have even more questions after watching The Misty Green Sky on Tubi, you'll find all the answers you seek next week on B Movie Mania.

Gather around for some Myron tongue tickles and a little Head of the Family talk. Watch the film on Tubi. This movie has nudity.

You feeling ok? Let grandpa tell you a story about Head of the Family. You can watch Head of the Family on Tubi.tv... as you wish.

Special guest Bridget Bardot joins B-Movie Mania to talk about kumquat vortexes, 80s music video dance parties, dognappings, and of course... insane chainsaw action!

Lil' Mikey is hear to tell us about the next movie, The Defense of New Haven. You can watch The Defense of New Haven on Tubi, Freevee, or Vudu.

Fire Ice & Dynamite is not a sequel to the first season episode, Fire and Ice.  It's not animated and it's not swords and sorcery, but it is fantastical with just a little bit of magic.  It's also the tired old tale of three unlikable heirs to a multi-million dollar estate fighting for their inheritance.  Roger Moore sort of stars in this insane film showcasing the sports world's craziest stunt people as they race through the titular fire, ice, and dynamite. You can watch Fire Ice & Dynamite here on YouTube.

Today's B Movie teaser features the Willy Bogner sports film, Fire Ice & Dynamite.  No, it's not a sequel to BMM's first season episode, Fire and Ice.  Nor is the movie as creepy as whatever the hell this teaser is.  But I am assured this teaser features a song performed by a cast member of Fire Ice and Dynamite, so let's hope it encourages you to watch the film here on YouTube and tune in next week!
