BONUS: An Almost Christmas Story (David Lowery)

As soon as I heard that Watch This (and Rock of Ages) darling John C. Reilly would be appearing in a Christmas short on Disney+ I knew we had to do it as a bonus episode. It’s shorter than O Night Divine, and has a cool cast besides John - including Jim Gaffigan and Natasha Lyonne. This episode is part of my master plan to cement this as a holiday classic. Happy Holidays! Outro music: Amphibia - Our Special Time of Year

65. Lady Bird (Greta Gerwig)

Originally recorded January 28, 2024. I planned to get this episode out shortly after it was recorded, but personal things got in the way and my interest in making new episodes dried up for most of the year. Nevertheless, I wanted to get it released before the upcoming Christmas episode (you’ll see it soon enough), so without further ado, here is our commentary for Lady Bird. Intro song: Axium Waves - Not the same Outro song: Monolism - Sky Above Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/lady-bird (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

64. It’s a Wonderful Life (Frank Capra)

I’ve wanted to do this movie ever since I started Watch This two years ago, and now seems like a good time to finally bring it out. Chances are most of you are more familiar with the countless movies and TV shows that ripped off its plot. But this movie is worth watching not only to see the root of this common trope, but because its message of appreciating life is important and useful year-round. Let's watch It's a Wonderful Life! Also, even though there's a 99% chance no one will find this episode, happy holidays to everyone! And let's survive 2024! Intro song: SiIvaGunner - Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection (NTSC Version) (from Pokémon Black & White) Outro song: Rent 2008 Broadway Cast - Seasons/Love Heals (A Rent Farewell) Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/frank-capras-its-a-wonderful-life (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

63. Free Birds (Jimmy Hayward)

Remember back in the Humans episode where I promised we’d do this episode next Thanksgiving? Well that time is now and we’re finally doing Free Birds! This movie took the Internet by storm around this time last year thanks to the efforts of the Schaffgang. And why wouldn’t it? It’s about going back in time to the first Thanksgiving to get turkeys off the menu! That’s right… it’s Free Birds! Schaffrillas’ Free Birds video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGLyNcO8LcA Andrias/Taylor Swift fanart in the thumbnail belongs to @peebszzz on X/Twitter Intro song: Yoann Garel - Kami Spirit Outro song: SiIvaGunner - Wi-Fi Plaza: Parade (In-Game Version) Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/free-birds (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

62. The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (Des McAnuff)

Hokey smoke, it’s the second of two reunion episodes for the summer! If you’ve followed us closely enough you’ll remember this being my original birthday pick for this year, before a tragic event involving Schaffrillas Productions caused me to rethink doing the campy Y2K-era comedy. But with that long behind us, I thought I’d bring it out again, as a tribute to how far the Tres Hombres have come since that first episode, and how far we still have to go. As for the movie itself… it’s a fun romp that faithfully and respectfully adapts the iconic cartoon to the then-current era and deserves to be remembered as such. Let’s watch The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle! Intro song: Oatmello – Watching the Stars Outro song: t3. lilly the little car Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/the-adventures-of-rocky-and-bullwinkle (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

61. Teen Beach Movie (Jeffrey Hornaday)

We’re back for a few more episodes this year! And for this first reunion episode we’re cruisin’ for a bruisin’ with Teen Beach Movie, the infectious Disney Channel musical comedy about two surfers who end up inside another beach musical. Along the way, we catch you up on what we’ve been up to between the Fabelmans and now. Cowabunga! Also sorry if I sound a little quiet this episode, this was the first episode made on my new computer and I guess the mic didn’t pick up my voice well enough. Intro song: Amaez & Moetown - Vivid Dreams Outro song: Leap of Faith - Light In The Dark Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/teen-beach-movie (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

60. The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg)

This episode is dedicated with love to everyone who listened to us and supported us over the past year-and-a-half. Your support is legendary and we wish you all the best. As much as it pains me to say this, this will be the final Watch This for the time being, due to availability concerns and other issues. So instead of Climax, I thought it’d be nice to end our time together on a more hopeful note, through a film loosely based on the life of its director, Steven Spielberg. It’s The Fabelmans! For real, though, this was an incredibly hard episode for me to put together, as (barring any post-script episodes that may or may not be made) it marks the end of an era. Case in point, it was recorded on March 26 and only now am I getting the willpower to put it together and upload it. There’s also the timing - if I chose to upload the episode at the tail end of March or the start of April, it would be mistaken for an April Fools joke. Nonetheless, I hope you understand why this episode wasn’t out a week ago, and I’ll see you at the movies. Intro song: Michael Giacchino - Stuff We Did (slowed + reverb) Outro song: The Muppet Movie OST - The Magic Store (Outro) Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/the-fabelmans (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)

ENCORE: The Mitchells Vs. The Machines (Michael Rianda)

Original episode airdate: January 30, 2022 Sorry for no new episode this week, but without revealing too much, Watch This is essentially running on fumes harder than it ever has before. As we prepare for a turnover in personnel, we're dialing it back to a happier time, where as many as four weirdoes could carry a conversation, and four other weirdoes and a dog could kick ass and take names during a robot apocalypse. Let's watch The Mitchells Vs. the Machines! Intro song: alex - i wasnt aloud to watch whose line as a kid but i think its pretty good now Outro song: FrankJavCee - Simpsonwave 1995 Where to watch the movie: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/connected-2020 (if not in the U.S. then set “Streaming in” to whatever country you’re in)
