Goodness Glaciers! In this episode, Trae brings us a relic from his childhood; a film that drove the final nail in the coffin of Don Bluth Productions: The Pebble and the Penguin. Was this hurriedly-animated, poorly-scored animated musical a genuine attempt at art, or just a soulless cash grab? Join us as we discuss this and many other topics, like keeping it gully and the weirdness of chest-butts.

Join us for an uncomfortable blast to the past as we unravel the unseemly sexual politics of this 1992 romantic comedy. World-famous mega movie star Tate Donovan and lesser-known independent film darling Sandra Bullock star as nerdy biochemists who happen upon the recipe for sex appeal. Throwing scientific ethics out the door and playing fast and loose with the concept of consent, the two set out on a crisscrossing series of sexual adventures. This film is clearly problematic from jump street......

In this episode, we feature the longest Marvel Minute yet, and explain what the Marvel Minute is! Join us as we discuss the ill-fated 1994 Roger Corman cult classic The Fantastic Four; the only completed film in the Roger Corman catalog that never received a proper release. Was this simply a cheap knock-off of a superhero movie so that 20th Century Fox could retain intellectual property rights, or was this a true attempt at artistic expression?

In an era where "mead" is actually hot chocolate, public schoolteachers reside in mansions(finally), and everything looks like the kind of winter wonderland/nightmarish hellscape that only the perpetual Christmas media giant Hallmark can rival -- there lives a flimsy premise. That's right; this episode is about the 2019 Netflix Original holiday film The Knight Before Christmas. Listen as we discuss the myriad plot holes, Netflix's cannibalistic product placement, and a variety of movie spin-off ...

Don't miss the climax as we review the last entry of the 50 Shades franchise, "50 Shades Freed." Is this the most romantic love story of our generation, or a fallow attempt at stretching a poorly-written Twilight fan fiction into a needless trilogy?

In this new minisode we talk about our time at GalaxyCon a few weeks ago in July. It was hot, sticky, full of costumes, people, meet-n-greets, but was it a Cash Grab?

In this episode we examine a very strange Scandinavian fantasy film that was a staple of Rachel's childhood. We attempt to answer the question of whether this is a cash grab as we continually question Rachel's mental state as a child and if her mom thought about abandoning her in the woods.

Geppetto - the time Drew Carey was cast in a made-for-TV Disney live action remake of Pinocchio. This is a movie about a man who wanted a child...until he got one. Co-starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Brent Spiner, and Wayne Brady. Singing, dancing, and abject confusion! This movie has it all!
