This week, we get in the ring and go toe to toe with a true champ. This week, we watched the movie that would give birth to Rocky IV: Rocky. We got a chance to take a look at a real movie and ask if one of Sylvester Stallone’s first movies (we’re not counting that other one) holds up!
The new year approaches and with it comes a prophecy about the end of the world. When things look bleak, who you gonna call? Ghostbuster II, that’s who! That’s right boppers, we’re celebrating the coming New Year by asking if this movie about New Year’s Eve holds up!
We’re on that official homestretch to Christmas, so we decided to watch one of the most christmassy movies ever (that we haven’t already watched): Elf! So get ready for us to discuss Will Ferrell at the hight of his powers, boppers!
Christmas continues barreling towards us. It is inevitable. Christmas brings the man in red: Santa Claus. And so we celebrate him by watching the origin of his wife. Or, at least one version of him and his wife. This week, we asked if The Santa Clause 2: The Misses Clause holds up.
Romantic comedies and holiday films collide on this week’s episode, boppers! What happens when Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon get caught in a lie by their families and are forced to spend the day visiting all their parents? They get stuck having to celebrate Four Christmases. The shenanigans are going to ensue as we ask if this comedy holds up, boppers! So why not give it a listen.
Christmas time is back upon us, and it’s our 275th episode which means it’s also time for us to do another Schwarzenegger movie (yes we know we usually save those for 50th or 100th episodes but the odds of getting one of those in December are very slim). So what better way to kick the season off than to Jingle All The Way?!
Old man turkey is practically knocking at the door, and that means Thanksgiving is upon us. Thanksgiving is about family and friends, so might as well discuss a movie about making friends with your family: Step Brothers. When Richard Jenkins and Mary Steenburgen decide to mary, they force their sons to meet and become the perfect storm of chaos. Does this one hold up? You’ll have to listen to find out, boppers!
This week we’re going all the way back to the beginning… of Michael Bay’s movie directing career. An action movie starring the Fresh Prince and Martin Lawrence in which they’re some bad boys. That’s right, boppers, we’re asking if Bad Boys holds up!
What happens when marines take a trucker back to deal with the threat she hid from years ago? That’s what we aim to find out this week as we watched Aliens to ask if it holds up. So listen up, boppers, and get the answers to these questions and more!
Halloween is upon us and so we have time for just one more spooky movie for our Spooktober Spooktacular. This week, we’re asking if the original Child’s Play holds up. There’s only one way to find out for sure, and that’s to listen up, boppers!
If there’s one thing that goes hand-in-hand with Halloween, it’s horror anthologies. You can’t have Halloween without watching at least one horror anthology. As far as horror anthologies go, Tales From The Darkside certainly is one of them. So, strap in boppers, because a new episode is coming at you quicker than a vengeful cat burrowing into your mouth!
This week, we’re joined again by James of The Obscure Gentlemen. He’s joining us as we attempt to find out if that time one of the bartenders from Cheers traveled across the country with Lex Luthor holds up. Also, there were zombies in this movie. Which is probably why it was called Zombieland and why we can justify watching it during our annual Spooktober Spooktacular event. So listen up, boppers!
The first Monday of October is upon us, which means that our annual Halloween Spooktober Spooktacular has begun! This year we’re kicking things off with a movie responsible for revitalizing the slasher sub genre of horror while also being a satire of it. So strap in bopper, because things are about to from a whisper to a Scream!
A busy schedule for some of your podcasters means that you get a shorter episode this week. It also means that we’re gonna reflect on some of 2019’s Summer movies. So, listen up, boppers! And we’ll return with normal episode next week as we begin our annual month long look at horror for Halloween!
Lets get in my dad's SUV, and we'll go over to my house, my crib, my pad. I'll tell my mom to go to sleep, and then we'll have the living room all to ourselves. We'll put on some great DVD's I picked up. How bout like, something like the Matrix? Because we’re asking if that holds up for it’s 20th anniversary on this week’s episode! And we hope you like fine cooking, because we got a Swanson's dinner in the freezer, with your name on it, boppers!
The universe is a big place, and it takes substantial power to be a master of it. Luckily, one man has that power: He-man! The real question is, who has the power to sit through Masters of the Universe to pass judgement on it in an attempt to decide if this movie holds up? We do, boppers! So listen up as we talk about Dolph Lundgren, synthesizers, and Gwildor on this week’s episode!
One man has broken out of Alcatraz, and when hostages are being held there, only one man can break a rescue team in: Sean “You’re the man now, dog” Connery. So join us this week as we watch yet another Nicolas Cage movie and ask if The Rock holds up!
This week, we’re joined by friend of the show Ben who’s last appearance was cursed and was never able to see the light of day. Plain Zero only has one lost episode, and Ben wanted a shot at coming back as a guest and we were happy to oblige him. He’s taking us back to the early to mid 2000s as he chose for us to watch “Waiting…” Will it hold up or will it fall flat? Only one way to find out, boppers!
We have returned from our week long break, and we brought along a special guest! This week, we’re joined by comedian and host of the Roadstories Podcast: Murray Valeriano! We let Murray pick the movie this time around, and his choice was Joel Schumacher’s 1987 classic, The Lost Boys. So, listen up boppers as we discuss mullets, Chinese food, and Dianne Wiest as we find out if the first meeting of the two Coreys holds up!
