Deadpool (2016)
Jim and A.Ron saw the latest kinda-sorta-Marvel movie, "Deadpool", and found it defied their expectations. Rather pleasantly so. What we were expecting is some kind of Dumpuary disaster, and what we got was a slick, action packed, very hard "R", very funny send up of the super hero genre. If you like movies in the "Cranked" franchise, or the latest "Kingsmen" flick, you'll be right at home. This podcast is an abridged version of the full, spoiler-filled discussion available only to our club memb...

The Fifth Element (1997)
Special thanks once again to Aaron Spaulding, who for his double commission feature selected the wonderful, weird, and fully preposterous Luc Besson joint "The Fifth Element", of which Jim and I are very familiar with. We delve into the depths of Jim's annoyance with Ruby, while A.Ron explains how he quit worrying and learned to love the Rodd, Besson's partly crazy, partly insightful look into life in the 24th century, and spend quite a bit of time analyzing the lead actors Bruce Willis, Milla J...

Making a Murderer
Jim and A.Ron have a LOT to say about Netflix's documentary, "Making a Murderer". Lots of spoilers ahead, but if you just want our opinion on whether the show is worth watching or not, rest assured that it absolutely is. We discuss the case, the defendants, the evidence, the criminal justice system in America, and ask what can we do individually and collectively to fix the numerous issues that are shed light on. If you'd like to help innocent people be exonerated, consider donating to the Innoce...

Teeth (2007)
Special thanks to podcast commissioner Julie Webster for pulling the trigger on the Mitchell Lichtenstein film, "Teeth", starring Jess Weixler. It is a frequently funny, sometimes creepy, yet often insightful look at the mythology behind vagina dentata, or "toothed vagina". This movie has severed peen for days, ya'll. They guys spend the better part of an awkward hour discussing the film and related topics, hope you enjoy! Join the discussion: Email | Forums Follow us: Twitter | Instagram | Face...

Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015)
Jim and A.Ron have seen the latest Star Wars, and declare it worthy of the name. Don't expect Empire Strikes Back, but if you set your navicomputer expectations somewhere in Return of the Jedi's neighborhood we think you'll have a good time. We give about five minutes of non spoiler review up front, but then get hardcore old school Star Wars nerd talk. Meet us over in the forums if you want to talk about it!

Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
Andrew "The Commissioner" Mount "strikes" again from his hidden rebel base, this time forcing us to watch Episode V of the Star Wars saga, "The Empire Strikes Back." Which, incidentally, depending on the age of the A.Ron you ask, is either his favoritist movie of all time, or top three. Either way, it's a treat. Once again, Jim and I try to sort through our childhood and adult memories of this holiest of trilogies to give it the treatment it deserves. If you missed in the first time, or would li...

Spectre (2015)
Jim and A.Ron went out over the long weekend and treated themselves to the latest James Bond flick, Spectre . After discussing the experience itself, in which we review our hometown's newest theater experience, the Eastgate Brew and View , we dish on the few charms and big disappointments in Daniel Craig's latest outing on Her Majesty's Service, Craig's place in the 007 pantheon, and our relationship with the series as a whole. Massive spoilers incoming, so if you want to see this unsullied, put...

Stargate (1994)
Today's commissioned podcast is on 1994's Stargate -- brought to you by Dr. Brandon Devito, official dentist of Bald Move and international man of mystery. Directed by Roland Emmerich and starring Kurt Russell and James Spader, it is a star spanning intergalactic tale of ancient Egyptian themed aliens, slip-shod archaeology, and gun toting shepherd boys. The boys ponder how movies change as we age, Emmerich's professional toolkit, the massive flaws in both Ra's and team Stargate's (SG-1?) plans....

Ash vs Evil Dead, Rick and Morty
Jim and A.Ron watched some fun television this week that they want to talk about! First up is the horror / comedy on Starz Network, "Ash vs Evil Dead". Does Bruce Campbell's shtick hold up all these years later? Second, the amazingly funny Cartoon Network Adult Swim sci-fi comedy, "Rick and Morty", co-created by Dan Harmon and the Earl of Lemongrab.

Daredevil (2015)
Special thanks to Robert Packnett who commissioned us to take on Netflix's 2015 series, "Daredevil", with a particular emphasis on the episodes "Cut Man" and "Shadows in the Glass". This was a particularly shrewd selection, as they both deal with the duality of the main hero and villain of the series, and their histories, similarities, strengths, and weaknesses. "Daredevil" is a series that is so much better than it has any right to be, and it's a magical combination of the writing, direction, a...

The Martian (2015)
Jim and A.Ron saw Ridley Scott's "The Martian" last night, starring Matt Damon, and have a lot to say about it. Note, the first part of the podcast is spoiler free, but then when we say we're about to spoil things, that's your cue to get out while the getting is good. Along the way, we talk about the trailers we saw for The Revenant , The Big Shor t, Joy , and Concussion . If you are still hungry for more Martian goodness, might I recommend reading Andy Weir's original book ( The Martian ) the f...

Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981)
Thanks to Anthony Basich for commissioning this podcast, and quite frankly, changing our entire mind about the Mad Max franchise. We think 1981's "The Road Warrior", directed by George Miller and starring Mel Gibson, is awesome, and stands up to any of it's 80's action movie brethren in a competition about holding up and entertaining a modern audience. We discuss feral kids, post-apocalyptic sexuality, the economics of a refinery under constant attack, working with animals in the movies, and muc...

Did we, in fact, deliver a commissioned podcast on the 1997 Robert Zemeckis science fiction film Contact? Well, all I can say for sure is that we recorded a conversation and released it as a podcast. Your own personal experience with the podcast will have to inform your answer to that question. Special thanks to Henrik Wielechowski who made the inspired choice to pull the trigger on this thought and debate provoking film.

The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
Andrew "The Commissioner" Mount has indicated a fifth movie that needs some Bald Move attention, this time the 2012 horror "The Cabin in the Woods". Written by Joss Whedon and directed by long time collaborated Drew Goddard, and staring the Mighty Thor, it was what I would describe as a pleasant surprise. I was prepared for a stock slasher flick, and what I got was... something more than that. Can't really say much else, and if you're a horror fan who somehow missed this, I encourage you to give...

V: The Original Miniseries
Special thanks to Bobby Z for commissioning this 1983 classic piece of original televised cinematic history; V: The Original Miniseries. A.Ron had fond memories of this series from his childhood, while Jim experienced it for the first time. We discuss 80's fashion, television tropes, heavy handed allegory, the plausibility of this as a first contact scenario, and the abject horror of prominent matte lines. Oh, and some pets get eaten and people get their faces torn off. That's pretty scary too, ...

The Matrix (1999)
Thanks to Jefferson Betmarik for making us pull 1999's The Matrix off our shelves and talk about it. This movie was directed by the Wachowski siblings, and stars Keanu Reeves, Lawerence Fishburne, and Carrie-Anne Moss among others. Jim and I have watched this movie so much, and spent so much time talking about it over the years, so it's no surprise that we were able to easily fill 1:20 with our personal thoughts and observations. What surprised is was how many new thoughts and ideas we had from ...
