    City of Angels: They See You When You're Sleeping..and You Know

    Join Steph and Jess as we round up "Tragic Romance" with 1998's City of Angels, the movie that made Steph hate God. While we agree that on this rewatch it's defintely on the boring side, Jess still has rose colored nostalgia glasses on. We discuss THAT ending and announce what our 100th episode will be! May the nosy ass angels watch over us all. Buy Us A Popcorn 🍿 https://buymeacoffe.com/filmgazers 🎬 Movie Night Picks ⬇️ https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls?ref_=ya_d_c_lists

    Brokeback Mountain: Stemming the Rose @>-;--

    Join Steph and Jess as we start Tragic Romance off with 2005's Brokeback Mountain. Yes, that gay cowboy movie. Steph has a hot take about Ennis and Jess has a hot take about the score. While we both agree it is as beautiful as it is depressing, it'll defintely be a while before we watch it again. Buy us a popcorn! 🍿 https://buymeacoffee.com/filmgazers

    Signs: Old Mcdonald Had a Firearm

    Join Steph and Jess as we wrap up, "Are You There Aliens? It’s Us, Filmgazers” with 2002’s Signs. We agree it’s M Night’s best movie even though the dialogue is a little.. odd. We discuss the scenes that still made our stomach drop and Jess asks, which group are you in? Group one that believes in signs? Or group two that thinks it’s all random luck? Also, our “tragic romance” picks are announced!

    War of the Worlds: No Robbie, Not Like Europe

    Join Steph and Jess in the first installment in the series, Are You There Aliens? It's Us, Filmgazers, with 2005's War of the Worlds. The movie that even Spielberg admitted has a lame-o ending. While we agree Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning were the stars of the show with their acting, the plot holes and blink and you miss it ending make this film miss the mark. Tom looks good running though. Also February's theme is announced! https://linktr.ee/filmgazers

    Miracle on 34th Street: You're Literally Sucking the Magic Out of It

    Join Steph and Jess as we wave the white flag and end our War on Christmas with this stinker of all stinkers, 1994’s Miracle on 34th Street. Nothing says Christmas like a court case? Steph feels totally vindicated on her hatred of this film and Jess agrees, Christmas with the Kranks ain’t looking too bad now. In the words of little Susan, “Nothing left to see but horse poop, and that doesn’t thrill me at all.” Indeed.

    Christmas With the Kranks: The Spirit of Peer Pressure

    Join Steph and Jess on our “ War on Christmas” with 2004’s Christmas with the Kranks, and spoiler alert: Jess still hates it. We agree it had some humorous parts- a botox’d Tim Allen eating peaches still made us chuckle. But the thought of anyone telling us what to do with our holiday still grinds our gears so we’ll keep this movie on the naughty list. And who tf spends $6000 on Christmas?!

    Willow: There and Back Again, A Nelwyn's Tale

    Join Steph and Jess for the finale of Fantasy and Fellowship with the Gentry family staple, Willow! While Steph proclaims it’s no Lord of the Rings, she does agree the combination of special effects and acting between the effervescent Val Kilmer and Warwick Davis are what make the film memorable. Jess still considers it a solid fantasy staple. What say you, peck?
