The movies explored, reviewed and ranked could be anything from cinema mastery and mindless entertainment, to visual and auditory assaults - as long as they're viewed as part of a movie marathon.

    Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) - Closing the View-Askewniverse Book

    KEVIN SMITH FILMOGRAPHY MARATHON The KS universe finally comes together in a mega-mashup akin to the MCU's Infinity War. Just trade Spiderman for Bluntman, and infinity stones for joints. Jay and Silent Bob are the heroes this city needs. When best friends, Jay and Silent Bob discover that a major movie based on them is in production, the pair head to Hollywood to rightfully claim the royalty money they deserve. Rhys and Kane revisit the MOST Kevin Smith film there is: one that is solely made...

    Dogma (1999) - Kevin Smith VS. The Catholic church

    KEVIN SMITH FILMOGRAPHY MARATHON Did not think it would take only four films for Kevin Smith to take on Catholicism, Alan Rickman and God Him(Her)self. Looks like we're here and Ben Affleck and Matt Damon and along for the ride. Two fallen angels who were ejected from paradise find themselves banned in Wisconsin. They are now headed for New Jersey where they find a loophole that can get them back into heaven. The only catch is that it will destroy humanity. A group bands together to stop the...

    Chasing Amy (1997) - A more serious Kevin Smith

    KEVIN SMITH FILMOGRAPHY MARATHON Our friend Kevo takes a step in a new direction - one towards a more mature film... a Spike Lee film (in Rhys' opinion). When two comic book artists meet a girl, one of them falls for her but the man's hopes are crushed when he finds that she is a lesbian. Kane and Rhys jump on this third entry to the View-Askew-niverse and debate over whether its the best direction for Kevin to take his subject matter a little more seriously, or if it comes across as t...

    Mallrats (1995) - From the store to the mall

    KEVIN SMITH FILMOGRAPHY MARATHON So you've made "Clerks". You're the new hot kid on the block. You can make something great for almost no money. Hollywood is throwing you an opportunity to break it into the mainstream. Whatever you do: don't screw it up. "Mallrats" sees two best friends seek the comforts of the mall when their girlfriends leave them on the same day. After a day of distractions and discussions, they eventually decide to win their girlfriends back. Other than a magicall...

    Clerks (1994) - Kevin Smith's first smash hit

    KEVIN SMITH FILMOGRAPHY MARATHON Marathon Me takes on another director. Feels a bit soon, doesn't it? Well, this one has been a long time coming. Rhys and Kane dive into the View-Askew-niverse, and look at all the films of Kevin Smith. The rightful and only place to start is Smith's first major hit that took indie-wood by storm. A simple and humble effort filmed entirely in and around a convenience store, all self-funded from Kevin's own credit card. The 90s gem is none-other than 'Clerks'....

    Black Christmas Franchise Ranking/Overview - A Trilogy of Remakes

    BLACK CHRISTMAS FRANCHISE MARATHON Christmas 2024 may have already passed, but Marathon Me has one more Christmas task: to rank this trilogy of remakes. An oddity that Black Christmas never got any direct sequels, but instead reinvention after reinvention, all spanning from a spine-tingling original classic slasher. Kane and Rhys probably undertake one of the easiest rankings they've done so far - with some clear winners and clear losers. But filled with Christmas spirit and an apatite for...

    Black Christmas (2019) - 'Elevating' a classic

    BLACK CHRISTMAS FRANCHISE MARATHON A far more modern interpretation of "Black Christmas," all inclusive with a nice sheen of amateurism and (attempted) elevation. With holidays around the corner, Riley and her friends prepare for a Christmas party. But when a masked stalker targets girls and goes on a killing spree, they decide to fight back. Following the 2006 remake, Kane and Rhys' hopes are not very high for this one. Ultimately, they find themselves tasting a whole new flavour of bad, ...

    Black Christmas (2006) - Is this the remake the world wanted?

    BLACK CHRISTMAS FRANCHISE MARATHON In the thirty years since the original, movies changed quite a lot. But horror changed A LOT. From a film that inspired Halloween, how do we think this 2006 Dimension slasher film with fare? A murdering sociopath escapes prison and returns to his childhood home. However, he finds out that his house has been converted into a sorority house and begins killing the students living there. Kane and Rhys go into this remake with hesitancy, but an open mind, only ...
