Episode 63

“Weird” - Michael Espy of the Co-Op Mode and Welp, That Sucked podcasts joins us to discuss Tim Burton’s latest movie, Dark Shadows. In our review, we try to wrap our heads around Tim Burton as a filmmaker, disparage the script, lament that the trailers gave away so many of the jokes, and come to the conclusion that this movie, Pirates 4, and Cars 2 all fail for the exact same reason.

Episode 62

“At Long Last ” - In our review of The Avengers, we praise Joss Whedon’s handling of all the characters, disagree on whether or not Mark Ruffalo made a good Bruce Banner, and appreciate all the humor. But the laughter dies down when two of us get into the biggest fight in the show’s 62-episode history.

Episode 61

“Giant Blue Member” - With all the talk about The Avengers, it’s easy to forget about the other superhero ensemble movie from a few years ago. In this episode, we revisit Zack Snyder’s Watchmen – a movie that Neal has long had a hate-love relationship with – and discuss the handling of all the characters, as well as the challenges it faced in trying to succeed as both an adaption and as a movie.

Episode 60

“Drenched Panties” - In preparation for The Avengers we assembled all the movies that lead up to it and re-watched them. In this episode, we gush about Iron Man, talk about what worked and what didn’t in The Incredible Hulk, and lament that Iron Man 2 just keeps getting worse. We also revisit Thor and Captain America to see if our opinions on them have changed since we reviewed them last year.

Episode 59

“It’s Over 9000” - We spend some time in The Cabin in the Woods, praising the way it subverted the conventions of horror movies and struck a balance between humor and horror. Also: We delve into spoiler territory at the end to discuss its wild climax!

Episode 58

“Year One” - It’s the show’s one-year anniversary! We make it one to remember by reviewing Adam Sandler’s latest masterpiece, Jack and Jill, and discussing our five favorite movies.

Episode 57

“It’s A Zero” - Clash of the Titans is one of Neal’s least favorite movies of all-time. So, naturally, we thought it would be funny if we forced him to go see Wrath of the Titans for this episode. As it turns out, the joke was on all three of us. Wrath of the Titans ended up being the worst movie we’ve seen since (gulp) Pirates 4… and the recipient of the first 0-out-of-10 awarded in the show’s history.
