    Twister

    Imagine running toward a tornado? Who would do such a thing? Helen Hunt and Bil Paxton that's who! They're insane! This movie is insane! I may be insane! Who knows? In any case, join a group of Long Island potatoes as they get together and talk about this insane movie.

    The Godfather

    If you're bored and feel the need for a bunch of complete dunderheads to tell you why the Godfather was a good movie, boy have we got a podcast for you!

    In The Line Of Fire

    A bunch of idiots talk about the 1993 movie where a John Malkovich dummy is thrown down an elevator shaft and Clint Eastwood harasses Rene Russo. Oh and, spoiler alert, he saves the president too!

    The Fugitive

    Today’s pod features The Fugitive, a 1993 movie staring Joe Pantoliano. In a tale as old as time a prominent vascular surgeon, Richard Kimble, is framed for the murder of his wife. He didn’t do it but he goes to prison anyway while the real killer goes free! Then he escapes, staying one step ahead of the Feds (one of whom has a pony tail) all the while looking for the one armed man: the real killer. Will he elude them long enough to prove his innocence? It’s a real nail biter and still holds up today. In a stark contrast, the usual gang of WAFTA idiots - plus pod guest Brett B - drone on and on about it in a non suspenseful way, and never once mention the pony tail. Also starring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones.

    Cabin Boy

    Sometimes a movie comes along that is both genre-defying and era-defining. Cabin Boy is not one of those movies but it’s weird and we love it. A tale of men, the sea, other men and one very special fancy lad who seeks adventure and boy does he find it. “Hey, would you like to buy a monkey?”

    Grease

    Grease was a huge blockbuster movie and it made John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John huge stars and sold millions of tickets. Then the powers that be decided to make Grease 2 - without them! And it sold tickets. And yet I've heard that some people prefer the latter. Those people are insane. Enjoy!

    Jaws

    It's the 35th anniversary of the release of Jaws (someone check my math but I think I'm right) and this is a very special edition of WAFTA! Now we've said this before! And we've put exclamation points at the end of our sentences to make them seem important! But this is different! This is important! You know how they have shark week on the TV?! Well, this is the reason they have it! Sharks are scary, sharks are mean, and sharks are box office! And we're gonna need a bigger pod!
