A month of movies meeting movies to form a good trilogy... in theory.

    The Avengers (2012)

    The Second Part in our Failure in Teamwork Trilogy So this is the big one. The episode where our hosts decide if its time to get off this Marvel Cinematic Universe gravy train (thought the numbers would say otherwise) and call it good with the end of Phase One (ugh) with THE AVENGERS. So many paths we could take. Like doing the failed adaptation of that British show with Uma Thurman in the 90s. That couldn't have been that bad. But here we are.

    A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors

    The First Part in our Failure in Teamwork Trilogy Some might say that the failure in teamwork starts with one host being bullied by the other into doing an episode on A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS. All because the bullied host said he finally got around to the first entry into this ESTEEMED franchise and expressed enthusiasm for the original film. And here we are with a discussion on the merits of a deleted scene where Freddy Krueger has boobs. Teamwork.

    Patreon Preview of Daredevil (2003)

    The Not Ready for MCU Players #5 You may be wondering or more likely hate-listening to our travels through the Marvel Cinematic Universe and asking yourself "WHY?" This is a very reasonable question and perhaps if followed by the even more reasonable response of turning this podcast off. But then you find yourself coming back. Reading these show notes for some reason. Because today is the day Ben Affleck as DAREDEVIL hit the feed. And really that's the whole reason one of us is podcasting to begin with. Enjoy!

    Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

    The Third Part in our Symbols of America Trilogy As we near a holiday of fireworks and hot dogs we celebrate this occasion by talking about the time when Agent Carter took her chance to fondle Captain America's newly pumped up with super soldier serum breasts. Take that Rob Liefeld and enjoy! Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!

    A League of Their Own (1992)

    The Second Part in our Symbols of America Trilogy Geena Davis can do no wrong as the greatest catcher to ever play the game of baseball and Tom Hanks is scratching his nuts which leaves Lori Petty to pick on. Forgive us, Tank Girl, we just love A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN so much we can't help but join the pile on. Enjoy!

    All the President's Men (1976)

    The First Part in our Symbols of America Trilogy We debate whether the true symbol of America is laser tag or 1970s pornography. Probably should have stuck with a debate between Dustin Hoffman or Robert Redford but where is the debate in that? Enjoy!

    Patreon Preview of Spider-Man (2002)

    The Not Ready for the MCU Players #4 This is mainly a podcast about the ever changing nature of bullying amongst teenagers but the one constant is that everyone hates when Tobey Maguire takes off the SPIDER-MAN mask and shows us his stupid face.

    Thor (2011)

    The Third Part in our Brothers Brought Low Trilogy Even when you nail the casting with Chris Hemsworth wearing a red cape and Tom Hiddleston with golden horns on his head... you still need Kat Dennings to save the day and STILL two bumbling podcasters will complain about your flick over a decade later. Which is to say that there is no pleasing anyone with anything and that it could always be worse. Like in the sequel THOR: THE DARK WORLD. But that's for another episode! For now, let's enjoy our little chat on The Original THOR. A classic of good enough! Patreon supporters get access to monthly bonus episodes including previous years of Movie Book Club!
