Contains strong language.
It's our final episode of the year and the second festive episode of the month. Jimmy and Jen discuss this beloved classic like two people who aren't fans of the movie.

Contains very strong language and adult themes. Jimmy has a new microphone, so you will hear the bumping of a table and the moving of a chair from his side. He'll adjust it for next time.
It's Jen's pick and it's oddly similar as the last movie they covered. Kind of. Topics include eyes, boobs and tattoos. The wheel is taking a break until November as October has it's own gimmick. Contains strong language.
Oh, boy. The time is finally here for Jimmy and Jen to chat about a movie they are both watching for the first time, thanks to "the wheel". Is it a racist piece of crap or a well intentioned oddity? Discussions include Blackface (obviously),racism (obviously) and how the character would fare today. Contains strong language.
Jimmy's latest pick is a romantic comedy from the 90s. That's right, JIMMY'S latest pick. He liked Mike Myers when he was younger, what can we say?

It's the start of a brand new era here at "So, What's the Problem?" as it's time for Jen and Jimmy to watch movies have never seen but have heard they are possibly problematic. Or, in the case of this movie, they just wanted to bitch about Grease. This should be a once a month deal, to try to change things up a little. Next week will be Jen's pick that she has seen but Jimmy has not.
Aaaaaand, we're back to the 80s, the exact same year as Jimmy's last pick.

Contains strong language.
Jen and Jimmy return to Jennifer Love Hewitt romantic comedy territory with this little seen oddity. They chat about the usual as well as Ben Savage, miscast stars, bad filmmaking choices, safe sex and just what the crap is that David Hasselhoff nonsense about? Contains strong language. Re-upload to fix audio problem.
It's an 80s Stallone movie so you know what that means???? Right-wing politics and lots of violence! And Jimmy still likes it! It's an 80s action movie so you know it's Jimmy's pick. Tune in next week where the movie will be a 90s teen comedy... and still technically Jimmy's pick, masquerading as Jens. Hahahahahahaha. Contains strong language.

It's that other movie from 1985 that stars Michael J Fox! Jimmy and Jen talk about the Teen Wolf animated series, how people of any orientation can be unlikeable as well as ponder just what the message of the movie is. And behind the scenes, Jimmy is pondering just how he'll post the video of next week's movie on Youtube. Contains strong and discriminatory language.
We are back and we start off year 4 with this early 90s thriller which is much better than the mid-90s thriller we covered before our break.

Should be a lighter show next week!
It's our 100th movie! Jimmy and Jen discuss the joyless mid-90s stalker thriller Fear starring Marky Mark, a movie they talked about all the way back in episode one.

As in they are covering one of his movies for the first time, he's not a guest or anything. Contains strong language and our next episode is our 100th movie...
It's our 98th movie, so we're covering a movie from 1998. Jimmy and Jen discuss the twists, Jimmy's thoughts on the unrelated movie The Menu and they disagree on a certain aspect of the movie, Wild Things. Includes very very strong language and talk of sexual assault.
We're back! This week on "Jen Hates Jimmy", it is Howard the freaking Duck time! Our fearless duo talk about duck nudity, duck anatomy, duck puns and Marvel movies again. It's okay, though, this is based on a Marvel comic, so it's justified, honest! Contains strong language.
It's new movie spoiler time! Jimmy and Jen discuss the 6th movie in a franchise they both love but did they enjoy this particular entry? They go over what they like, what they didn't like, the cast, plot holes and discuss what they want from a 7th movie. We'll be back to our normal show next week with Howard the Duck (1986). Contains spoilers for the Scream franchise (although, why would you start at 6?) and strong language.
Hooo, boy, here we go... Contains strong language.
One of the comedies from the year that made Jim Carrey a star and one that is very troubling for a number of reasons. Jim Carrey wearing a tutu is oddly not one of them. Beware, do not listen if you love this movie. Or do then email us at [email protected] to tell us why we're wrong. Contains talk of Homophobia and Transphobia because that's just the movie we're covering.
Jimmy and Jen stay in 1993 this week with an often forgotten thriller co-written by one of Jen's favourite writers.

Jimmy and Jen are back and this time round, Jimmy has picked a classic Stallone flick that is great and he won't hear any different! They talk about age gaps in movies, The Razzies, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls and Buffy, briefly. It's okay, though, this movie has an actor from the show in it. An actor who was in two episodes in the second season but still... Contains strong language.
It's Jen's birthyear pick and she has went with the 8th most racist movie ever made according to the Complex site. Is its place on such a list warranted?

Welcome to 2023! Jimmy and Jen return with this childhood favourite of the former's that the latter just watched for the first time. They talk about the movie, obviously, the soundtrack, Sly Stallone and Jimmy tells Jen about a project he did at college related to this movie. Kind of. Contains strong language.
