Broken Reel

Third Unit Movies

From the silver screen to the busted projector, this is Broken Reel! We’re a few old pals diving into the world of film. Expect lively debates over some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, venting sessions about cinema's baffling box office bombs, hilarious stories from years of theater-going, and plenty of off-the-cuff movie banter. If you love movies and the friendly arguments that come with them, you’ve found your crew.

    Ep. 9 - What is Game Night?!

    RECOMMEND YOUTUBE VIDEO FOR VISUALS - This week the boys are back in town to flex their brain muscle thingies. We sit down to play a plethora of daily cinema games, six degrees of Kevin Bacon, Immaculate Grid and more. The best part is when you listen to this and shout out the obvious answers in your car as we ruminate on things like Angelina Jolie movies.

    Ep. 8 - A Valentine's Day Rom-Com Appreciation Celebration

    Nobody puts Baby in the corner this week as Jason, Graham, and Slawter return to talk about some of their most formative Rom-Com experiences. We breakdown what makes a good Rom-Com and what's so appealing about them, just as you wished. Graham doesn't want to waste anymore of his life without his movie selections in it. Slawter came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life talking about Ryan Gosling, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible, and Jason is hopelessly devoted to one signature 2004 release. Don't forget: we're just a group of guys, standing in front of an audience, asking them to love us 3

    In honor of the 25th anniversary of the release of Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (the most rewatched movie of all time {It's true. [I checked.]}) we discuss some of our most rewatched movies. Jason gambles on a new bit, but it's not quite the right tempo... and we're really interested in horses in movies. It is of course, 2026, the Chinese Zodiac Year of the Horse. Anyway, what's your horse fact, butthead?
