Épisode 1 - Ninja Turtles (1990)
25 juin 2014
The Ninja Turtles movie is legitimately awesome. A rare children's movie that doesn't treat kid like everything has to be sanitize. Plus the Turtles say bad words sometimes, which is astonishing to any 8 year old.
Épisode 2 - Ninja Turtles II (1991)
29 juin 2014
Ninja turtles II, wildly shifts the tone of the franchise, after backlash from parents' groups, replacing the film's darker, grittier elements with brighter lights, and Vanilla Ice.
Épisode 3 - Pearl Harbor (2001)
5 juillet 2014
Pearl Harbor, may have, per se, created the modern Michael Bay that we know today.
Épisode 4 - Last Action Hero (1993)
3 août 2014
Find out how a movie penned by god-mode writer, Shane Black, and helmed by god-mode action director, John McTiernan could be so grossly overlooked and vastly underappreciated, in Last Action Hero.
Épisode 5 - The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)
9 août 2014
The Long Kiss Goodnight is a movie with a true, strong female action hero, easily 20 years ahead of its time. Geena Davis is everything amazing and kills a hell of a lot of bad people along the way.
Épisode 6 - Ladyhawke (1985)
17 août 2014
Ladyhawke, a personal favorite, still kind of maybe holds up after all these years. It's fantastic, despite it's dated imperfections, and everything a modern movie is not, in the best way possible.
Épisode 7 - Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)
6 septembre 2014
An arrogant rich kid who is continually confronted with the realities of what an unbalanced kingdom can do to its population, in arguably the best version of the Robin Hood mythos.
Épisode 8 - The World's End (2013)
10 novembre 2014
The World's End is film that rewards its audience with deeper meaning upon each subsequent viewing. It's also a masterclass example of nearly every filmmaking discipline. (Plus Simon Pegg tweeted this episode once upon a time so you should watch it)!
Épisode 9 - About Those Trailers
30 novembre 2014
After watching the nigh-feverish reaction to the trailers for Jurassic World and Star Wars Episode VII, Mikey weighs in not just on the content of the trailers, but in how we, as fans, choose to process our reactions to them.
Épisode 10 - The Rocketeer (1991)
22 décembre 2014
A movie that's impossible not to smile at, The Rocketeer! Director Joe Johnston makes a solid "superman" movie where Boba Fett Goes Steam Punk and Fights Fascists.
Épisode 1 - Fave 5 of 2014
3 janvier 2015
Épisode 2 - Sunshine (2007)
4 avril 2015
It pains me how little respect Sunshine has gotten in the grand scheme of Sci-Fi.
Épisode 3 - The Lost World (1997)
15 mai 2015
The Lost World is a forgotten movie to a lot of people, but not to me. There's so much to love in this movie.
Épisode 4 - The Fifth Element (1997) vs A Good Day to Die Hard (2013)
11 juillet 2015
This has been a long time coming, but I’m somewhat chuffed to admit I did this a bit differently than I think a lot of people were expecting. While the episode is a straight up fluffernuttering of The Fifth Element, it does contain a potent twist. This episode is actually about two movies. So the question you need to ask yourself is: Is The Fifth Element a better Die Hard movie than one of the Die Hard movies? Keywords for Search Engine Optimization of the week: Bruce Willis Eats a Helicopter
Épisode 5 - Road to Perdition (2002)
25 août 2015
Have you ever seen Tom Hanks be a kind of bad guy? Well, today is your lucky day, in Road to Perdition!
Épisode 6 - A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)
20 septembre 2015
This episode takes aim at A.I. Artificial Intelligence and tries to lay out a case for why this film is a misunderstood masterpiece. (Spoilers ... I guess.)
Épisode 7 - Demolition Man (1993)
1 novembre 2015
By popular vote, the new episode takes on Demolition Man ... with mixed results. I certainly appreciate what this movie has to offer but will the weight of its sin cause it to fall? Only Sly Stallone can guide us through this mush-mouthed pseudo-madness.
Épisode 8 - Hugo (2011)
22 novembre 2015
Hugo is the meal of the week and it is good. Mikey dives deep on not only one of the greatest films of the last five years, but also the birth of cinema as an art form. This is probably important. Or maybe it isn't? Who really knows?
Épisode 9 - The Cabin in the Woods (2012)

Épisode 9 - Jarhead: Forgotten Masterpiece
1 juin 2018
Jarhead is an all-star forgotten masterpiece, from 2005. For real, check out this list of winners: thoughtfully directed by Sam Mendes, filmed beautifully by Roger Deakins, using the screenplay by William Broyles Jr., based on the book by Anthony Swofford, and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard, and Jamie Foxx. The list goes on. These artist bring us up to speed with the struggles of today's soldier in the context of modern war, and the challenges to their mental well-being. The film upset a lot of audiences by engendering an understandable frustration by denying the soldiers on screen what they are trained to do in war, and likewise, subverting our own expectations of what a war movie should be. Not ironically. That's half the point - better empathy for the lasting, real life effects of military service.
Épisode 10 - The Sopranos, Inception, and Ambiguous Endings
22 juin 2018
Inception (2010) is a spectacular, intellectually dense, sci-fi action heist film, written and directed by Christopher Nolan. #tophno What is the value of ambiguous endings? Often they are attached to media with complex messages intended to carry beyond the final frame, and into conversations. Sometime a piece of art begs us to stop consider which is more important: the question or the answer? Can you remember the first movie that made you ask yourself this question?

Épisode 13 - Blade Runner 2049 & the 20-Year Sequel
10 août 2018
Blade Runner 2049 is a rare kind of sequel that is both brilliant on its own, while improving upon the original film. Too often sequels are little more than weaponized nostalgia. However, Director, Denis Villeneuve, and (cool as hell) DP, Roger Deakins, bring their A++ game to Blade Runner 2049, engendering greater depth to the original Blade Runner (1982), while creating a meaningful follow-up - 35 years later - that raises the bar for both movies.
Épisode 14 - Let's Talk about Thanos
30 août 2018
Avengers: Infinity War (2018) is not only the culmination of 18 movies, and a decade's worth of build-up, it also turned out to be one of the most talked about films of the last decade. Not all of it good. While Infinity War has a lot of good moments with character's we've grown to love, there is also endless debate over the MCU's treatment of the film's protagonist, Thanos, and the arguable logic behind his goals. It left some audience members confused, hurt, and disappointed. Mikey explores why so many people had good reasons to feel this way.
Épisode 15 - Pushing Daisies is a Marvelous Thing! (No Spoilers)

Find out why these engaging and affecting silly stories, told in silly ways, still manage to land, after the show's all too short life some nine years, two months, twelve hours, forty-four minutes, and twenty-nine seconds ago.

14 octobre 2018
This episode originally premiered at Scoopfest 2018, in Las Vegas. Fans - that's you! - voted from a list of bad movies, and Mikey would make an episode about that particular garbage inferno.
