    CRFS 106 - Super Mario Bros 2: The Legend of Chun-Li

    Episode Notes This week the brothers delve into the dim world of video game adaptations with Super Mario Bros (1993) and Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (2009), making this the only podcast with nice things to say about Street Fighter (1994), and also Taboo from the Black Eyed Peas.

    CRFS 105 - The Last Temptation of Brian

    Episode Notes This week the brothers cover two banned films about Jesus, who is the Christ. The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) and The Life of Brian (1979) both retold the story of Jesus in their own way, and were banned. Tune in for lots of fun theology and also a Heaven 17 song that you only recognize from the Trainspotting OST.

    CRFS 104 - Hologram Babes and Anime Assassins

    Episode Notes This week the brothers cover two lackluster live action adaptations of 1990s animated properties, Aeon Flux (2005) and Ghost in the Shell (2017) which beg the question: Why can't anybody seem to adapt animated properties without falling flat on their whitewashed faces?

    CRFS 103 - Broadcasters Gone Mad

    Episode Notes This week the brothers look at two movies about days of broadcasting gone by, watching Talk Radio (1988) and Network (1976). What happens when broadcasters speak their minds in a world turned upside down by radical politics? Well, cinema for one, but also some less than ideal outcomes.

    CRFS 102 - Road Trip of Love

    Episode Notes Sometimes you've gotta cross large distances for a 10/10 smokeshow, and sometimes you get real problematic with it. This week the lads watch The Sure Thing (1985) and Eurotrip (2004) in an effort to figure out whether or not Scotty knows, or if John Cusack ever did.

    CRFS 101 - Found Footage

    Episode Notes For the pilot episode of the Columbia River Film School, Bill and Pat dive into two remarkably similar found footage paranormal horror movies from the late 90s. One you have assuredly seen, and one you almost definitely haven't. How does The Last Broadcast stack up with its better known younger sibling The Blair Witch Project? Tune into CRFS 101 to reminisce about found footage, public access, mIRC, and all the mistakes you made in the late 90s.
