Movie Chumps

Luke Mayo

Luke Mayo, Corrye Cooke and their locker room of oddball buddies over-analyze a wild mix of films. What's profound? What's ridiculous? We like to think of ourselves as the Beyonce of movie podcasts (whatever the heck THAT means).

    Episode 219: One Battle After Another

    Is One Battle After Another a thriller, a father/daughter film, a black comedy, or a social commentary? Yes to everything. Luke & Corrye sift through all the bananas decisions by Paul Thomas Anderson that makes this an instant classic.

    Episode 218: Marty Supreme

    Timothée Chalamet and Josh Safdie. What a combination. The young actor and the rising director concoct one of the great New York City films of all time, packed with absolutely bananas situations that ping-pong player Marty Mouser and an array of characters find themselves in. Luke & Corrye discuss Kevin O'Leary and Odessa A'zion's star turns, that honey scene, two very controversial lines of dialogue, and of course, that somewhat surprising ending.

    Episode 217: Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery

    A hat trick for Rian Johnson! The director feeds us the third Benoit Blanc film, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, and once again, gets us exercising our brains and funny bone. Luke hated the cast chemistry but enjoyed everything else especially Josh O'Connor. Corrye found himself fond of the commentary on faith and politics. The Chumps have a ball exploring the nooks and crannies of this puzzle box. PLUS: Remembering Rob Reiner, forgiving Netflix, and Luke's most bizarre 5 Questions yet!

    Episode 216: Predator: Badlands

    It's Dek, Thia, and Bud vs. those rascals at the Weyland-Yutani! On a booby-trapped planet, no less! Luke & Corrye lap up the action sequences and world building that director Dan Trachtenberg brings to his third Predator project. PLUS: the new trailer that has the Chumps salivating...and the Saudi's are throwing around their fun coupons once again! Much more in this pre-Thanksgiving episode that we hope you'll find delightful.

    Episode 214: Nosferatu (2024)

    Friend of the Pod Cory K brings his brand of swagger back to Movie Chumps. From mood to cinematography to some truly frightening scenes, Nosferatu proves to be a worthy watch from the always reliable Robert Eggers. But the fellas explain why this is far from a horror classic.

    Episode 215: Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere

    This biopic gets a metric ton correct: the facts, the casting, the early 80s atmosphere, the motivations behind the Nebraska album. But Luke & Corrye believe Scott Cooper misses with trying to stick the landing. The Chumps adore Jeremy Allen White and some of the other cast's performances but when it comes to elevating the source material to something more cinematic, there's much to be desired. PLUS: the exciting news for Miami Vice fans - and the frustrating news for Star Wars aficionados.

    Episode 213: The Long Walk and Hoosiers

    Stephen King's latest book-to-movie adaptation is a winner, from top to bottom. And Hoosiers is the GOAT of sports movies (and Luke's GOAT, period). As our country wrestles with unsettling events, Luke & Corrye reflect on a deeper meaning for The Long Walk - and an age-old feel good triumph that is Hoosiers. Enjoy this double feature!

    Episode 212: Lethal Weapon (1987)

    Gibson and Glover. The chemistry isn't second to none. Toss in some dynamite Gary Busey hijinx (who calls themselves Mr. Joshua?), Shane Black's wacky writing, and of course that sultry saxophone - and you've got yourself a bonafide modern classic! PLUS: reading up on all things Bruce Springsteen ahead of the upcoming biopic, and Luke has to explain the Sydney Sweeney controversy to Corrye.
