  1. Theater IX: Aliens

    Theater IX: Aliens

    In space, no one can hear you scream. In a industrial compound that is on a moon filled with xenomorphs, everyone can hear you scream. We saw the sequel to the best sci-fi horror film of all time, James Cameron’s Aliens. This movie picks up 57 years after the events of the first film when Ripley’s escape pod is found floating through space and taken back to civilization. The corporation blames Ripley for the destruction of the Nostromo and the loss of her crew. When communication with a colony of terraformers is lost, Ripley is sent back with a crew of marines to find out if xenomorphs are responsible. They return to the planet and are confronted by a hive of terrifying aliens that threaten to kill them, or worse yet, use them as living cocoons. It will take all of their courage and effort to make it out alive. Is Ripley the most badass female action star of all time? How great is Bill Paxton in this movie? WIll there ever be another movie from this franchise that is as good as this one? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  2. Theater IX: They Fly (1986)

    Theater IX: They Fly (1986)

    This week’s episode takes us on a journey of transformation. We are witness to what happens when a man and an insect are fused on a molecular level. We saw David Cronenberg's The Fly and we’ll never be able to get some of what we saw out of our heads. This is one of the best body-horror films of all time. The movie follows a scientist that is on the verge of perfecting teleportation and a reporter that wants to share the story with the world. When the scientist tests the teleporter on himself, something goes wrong and it is time to “be afraid...be very afraid.” This film has a very small cast, but each of the main actors plays their role very well and adds to the overall story. Why was Seth so upset that Veronica was going to write a story about his project? Why was Seth so eager to test the telepod on himself after seeing what happened to the other baboons? Is Stathis the best creep in movie history? Does Stathis live in that office or just work there? Why doesn’t Veronica change the locks on her doors? Will we ever get a spin-off movie that focuses on Stathis’s struggle to adapt to living without a hand and a foot? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  4. Theater IX: John Wick 2

    Theater IX: John Wick 2

    This week we are taking a trip to a mythological New York City. One that is free from police and has a population made up of 60% professional assassins. We watched John Wick: Chapter 2 and we absolutely loved it. This sequel continues John Wick’s busy week of getting revenge by killing everyone in his path as he tries to settle an old debt with a bad man. It is a modern action-movie masterpiece that has wonderful pacing and keeps you wanting more until the end. Be honest, how happy were you that they didn’t hurt his dog this time? Is there a better killing machine than John Wick? Where did John Wick learn to do such amazing masonry work? Why do people continue to attack John Wick as if they have a chance of survival? We can’t wait to see John Wick 3 where he will be fighting ninjas while riding a horse. Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  5. Theater IX: True Lies

    Theater IX: True Lies

    This week we have a few things to confess. Sadly, we have been lying to you for quite a long time. We are not your run of the mill boring podcasters, we are actually secret agents that have been running around the world stopping the forces of evil with cartoonish levels of violence followed by lots of dry cool wit. We watched the 1994 summer blockbuster, True Lies, and we can’t wait to talk about it. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Austrian god of action movies, and James Cameron team up again in this James Bondesque action comedy and the results are nothing short of magical. It is a fun ride and well worth your time if you have not seen it yet. If only there was an alternate reality in which we got four True Lies movies and zero Avatar movies. What kind of salary is Harry getting from Omega Sector? Has Harry been a spy that gets involved in the types of shootouts that the movie opens with for 17 years and never been injured in a way that would make Helen or Dana question his work life? Is Arnold supposed to be a sex symbol in real life or in the movie? Is Simon the sleaziest used car salesman in cinema history? Why haven’t Schwarzenegger and Tom Arnold teamed up for another buddy film since this one? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  6. Theater VIII: Wayne's World 2

    Theater VIII: Wayne's World 2

    This week episode takes us to Aurora Illinois, which is a suburb of Chicago. Excellent! We’re putting on a music festival named Waynestock with our buddies, Wayne and Garth, in Wayne’s World 2. This movie takes place one year after the first film ended. Not much has changed for the guys and the plot hasn’t changed all that much either. Wayne and Garth still have their show, but are beginning to feel pressure to grow up and settle down in life. Cassandra is still working on her music career and another big name producer is looking to steal her away from Wayne. Wayne has a meeting within a dream with Jim Morrison that convinces him to put on a music festival in his hometown. They travel to England to team up with Del Preston, the greatest roadie that has ever lived, and get to work making Wayne’s dream a reality. There are lots of fun jokes and guest stars in the movie that make it well worth the watch. Should Garth have killed Honey’s ex-husband to win her love? When will we get a stand alone Del Preston movie? How many other people’s girlfriends are there backstage? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  7. Theater VIII: O

    Theater VIII: O

    This week on a very special episode of It’s Been Done Before, we’re going back to highschool to brush up on the modern interpretations of Shakespeare’s classic works. Just kidding, we watched the sub par 2001 remake of Othello affectionately referred to as O. This story very closely mirrors the original play but it is filled to the brim with late nineties teen movie actors and tropes. Odin is a highly recruited high school basketball player that is the only black student at a stuck up all white live-on-campus boarding school. His teammate Hugo is jealous of him or in love with him or something and he devises a plan to ruin Odin’s life. He convinces Odin that his girlfriend Desi is cheating on him with his best friend Michael. The movie follows this web of lies until it's ultimately tragic ending. Does every single character in this film both live and work at the school? Why didn’t they just set this movie at a college? Why are the only black characters in this movie a basketball player and a drug dealer? Why does Roger do everything that Hugo says? How stupid is Odin to fall for all of this? How many other girlfriends has Odin killed due to a misunderstanding? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

  8. Theater VIII: Teen Wolf, Too

    Theater VIII: Teen Wolf, Too

    This week we’re taking a trip to college so we can soak in some culture, maybe take in a boxing match and then watch a man turn into a wolf right before our eyes. We watched Jason Bateman try his best in a sequel that lost the original movie’s star, Teen Wolf, Too. This wacky sequel ups the ante from the first movie and takes our hero Todd Howard to college on a boxing scholarship. Todd is the werewolf cousin of Scott Howard, Michael J. Fox in the first movie, and he has to use his wolf abilities to keep winning fights and return Hamilton College to its past glory. The problem is that Todd gets a little too full of himself, so he must apologize for his actions learn who he really is. What are the rules for turning into a werewolf in this movie? Why is college boxing such an important part of the school’s success? What percentage of the movie’s runtime do the montages take up? When did the students have time to learn the choreography for that dance party? How far does Uncle Harold live from the college? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.
