    The Usual Suspects

    The Usual Suspects

    Let's talk about a movie with one of the top-5 greatest endings of all time, because we all know the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world this podcast didn't exist...and like that...he's gone. Join us as we revisit the Oscar winning 1995 classic that stuck its landing, sold its twist, and inspired so many thereafter.

    Back to the Future

    Back to the Future

    Hop in as we go back in time to 1985, revisiting the original Back to the Future. What made this movie so special, differing it from other time travel movies? Did the universal fantasy of traveling back in time simply capture the imagination of movie-goers? We discuss all of it and more, including many off-beat tangents we hope you enjoy.

    Payback

    What would you do if someone took $70,000 from you? Payback is a 1999 action throwback to neo-noir movies of the past - a Mel Gibson movie not often talked about, and that's where we come in.

    Black Dynamite

    Black Dynamite

    Michael Jai White's action/comedy homage to his favorite blaxsploitation films of the 1970s. This movie has a lot of great comedic contributors, is full of laughs and nods to the fun and awesome action of those seventies classics. Also, arguably the greatest iteration of Richard M. Nixon in a movie.

    American Pie

    American Pie

    If you were in high school in the late 90s, American Pie was right in your wheelhouse. A relatively low-budget raunchy R-rated teen comedy that took the summer of 99 by storm, and Mike and Johnny were at the right age for it. Join the boys as they look back on this classic, for good and for bad, including scenes you would never in a million years see in a movie made today.
