Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s the latest iteration of the OG superhero, and he’s here to fight for truth, justice, and a better tomorrow! Join us as we discuss James Gunn’s take on the Big Blue Boy Scout, starring Philadelphia’s own David Corenswet (Go Birds!). In this episode we dive into what makes this crowd-pleasing blockbuster such a success, while also investigating what made previous versions of Supes unique. Is the latest also the greatest? This episode comes out on Dan’...

We’re at the halfway point of 2025 (which means we’re closer to 2050 than 2000, you elderly person, you), so it’s time to count down our favorite Movie Movies of the year THUS FAR! It’s a tradition as old as the show itself, and it’s always a blast to compare our tastes and catalog our faves! Due to circumstances, we had to record this one remotely, but we’ll be back to in-person sessions soon. Thanks for your support! And speaking of support, be sure to follow the show on Instagram and Twitter ...

It’s official: Megan is now caught up for The Final Reckoning . Granted, we’ve all actually seen The Final Reckoning by now, but we are nothing if not completists, and we desperately needed to record this one before the last film hit theaters !! So enjoy this, the penultimate episode in our franchise dissection (we will be waiting for home video to do an episode on The Final Reckoning — we need a break from these missions, as do you — perhaps we’ll go rock climbing!). What a journey it’s been! F...

As the newest recruit to the Movie Movie team it was only right for Megan to have a turn picking a movie for the show. Somehow, she found a film that neither Stephen nor Dan had seen before: the cult classic dark comedy Heathers ! Join us as we discuss this bizarre ‘80s treat that feels all too relevant today. We laugh, we cry, we love our dead gay son. Follow the show on Instagram Check out ScullyVision Leave us a review wherever you get your podcasts (and subscribe while you’re at it!). The I ...

Megan has never seen a Mission: Impossible movie. Dan and Stephen are making her watch ALL OF THEM. That’s right, as the final (?) film in the series quickly approaches, we will be going through the ultimate preparatory task. It sounds impossible, but we’ll succeed, just like Ethan Hunt and the IMF gang! This time we’re talking Fallout , and it seems the trio is in agreement: this is top-tier Tom-foolery! So cock your punching arms, take some helicopter piloting lessons, and as always, trust you...

“It's better to look ahead and prepare, than to look back and regret.” So says Olympic legend Jackie Joyner-Kersee. While she was talking about living a full life and not about seeing a year’s worth of movies, it was ultimately the best quote I could find to suit our latest episode. Yeah, I know we’re already at the end of February, but that still gives us ten months of films to anticipate (and you already saw DEN OF THIEVES: PANTERA, against which all 2025 movies will surely pale). Dan, Stephen...

There have been as many werewolf movies as there have been attempts at rebooting the Universal Monsters … uh … Universe, but it seems that writer/director Leigh Whannell has finally cracked the code, first with The Invisible Man, and now with Wolf Man, his uncommonly emotional take on everyone’s favorite flat-nosed wolfman. Join us as we discuss the novel thematic angle he and co-writer Corbett Tuck have introduced to the material, as well as the stunning cinematic craft employed to bring this l...

You may notice that things are a bit different here at I LIKE TO MOVIE MOVIE, namely in the department of hosting duties. Yes, that’s right, Megan is officially joining the podcast as a full-time host!! Still, you should leave her alone. 2025 is going to be incredible, and the show you know and love will be growing.

It’s always a treat when Jeremy Saulnier drops a new movie, and his latest, the progressive-minded FIRST BLOOD riff REBEL RIDGE is yet another notch in his belt as the master of meaty, high-pressure thrillers. We discuss the morality of policing, the atypical way violence is employed to support theme, and whether or not a bicycle can still be ridden after a bitchass cop hits it with his car. Dan hates cops, Stephen hates continuity errors. After the discussion we count down some of our favorite ...

In honor of the release of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice we’re going back in time 36 years to dig six feet deep into the original film. Tim Burton’s raucously imaginative comedy gave rise to action figures, a cartoon, and a broadway musical, but can it survive sequelization? Kick off spooky season with us!

Deadpool is back, and this time he’s got a buddy with him. Join us as we discuss the latest from the Merc with a Mouth, and try to decide where the line is between storytelling, fan service, and stone cold capitalism. Instead of a list, this week we discuss the latest news out of SDCC, namely the casting of Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom!

It’s summer baby, and that means BLOCKBUSTERS, and way back in 1998 it meant ARMAGEDDON. Join us as we dive into what makes Michael Bay’s disaster epic so special. We laugh, we cry, and we blame it all on space dementia. After the discussion we count down some of our favorite Bruce Willis movies. Our special guest is Megan of MEGAN: IMPOSSIBLE fame, who doesn’t get a last name because she doesn’t want to be bothered. Stephen and Dan, however, DEMAND to be bothered.

Stephen got invited to a screening of MIDSOMMAR, so we decided to further his horror education by devoting an episode to Ari Aster’s epic feast of frights (and mushrooms and pastries with pubes in them). We discuss the myriad ways this sunny delight digs under your skin, creating a false sense of calm that aaaaaaaalmost makes you forget about the dread. Also, bears.

It’s no secret that here at I LIKE TO MOVIE MOVIE we love sports movies and we love movies about bad people being bad to one another because it makes them horny. Enter Luca Guadagnino’s CHALLENGERS, a sports movie about bad people being bad to one another because it makes them horny. We discuss the dense thematic material contained within, the incredible filmmaking craft, and the fact the Mike Faist is Bobo John Mulaney.

Alex Garland’s latest film is one of the biggest and most divisive movies of the year. Is it an anti-war classic or just empty provocation? Is refusing to take a position a position all its own?

On this week’s episode of I LIKE TO MOVIE MOVIE, we leave the lush rainforests of Caladan for the unforgiving desert climate of Arrakis once again to discuss part two of Denis Villeneuve’s epic adaptation of Frank Herbert’s “unadaptable” classic. Stephen has questions. Dan has (some) answers. Gurney has a song. And speaking of songs, we close out the episode with some of our favorite musicians-turned-actors, in honor of the great Zendaya.

People of Earth! Apologies for the slight delay, but we were tied up watching the Oscars last night. And since you fellow degenerates were probably rushing to cram every damn movie in your brain before the big night, we decided not to do a classic episode, lest you be saddled with boring homework. Instead, we decided to chillax and discuss what we’ve been watching lately. Maybe you’ve seen the same stuff. Maybe you’ll come out of this with some new recommendations. Maybe you’ll die midway throug...

On Sunday, March 10th the Oscars are back for the 96th time! You’d think Hollywood would be tired of itself by now, but nope. The show must go on!

On February 1st we lost a true god amongst men: Carl Weathers. He fought Rocky, Predator, Shooter McGavin, and a host of people who were much too happy to throw away their food. To celebrate his life we’re covering ACTION JACKSON, the film that aimed to make Weathers a leading man by putting him up against Coach himself: Craig T. Nelson. This explosive film features fully on fire stuntmen, dummy work, fully on fire dummy work, Robert Davi, and a one-liner that makes absolutely no sense. In the b...

This year’s tasty treat is a deep dive into Shane Black’s festive directorial debut, KISS KISS BANG BANG.

Mike Flanagan did the impossible when he made DOCTOR SLEEP: successfully sequelizing an untouchable classic AND adapting a novel that itself is very much *not* a sequel to said classic. Join us as we close out our seasonally spooky programming by forcing Stephen to watch another horror movie (he’ll watch anything if it has Rebecca Ferguson in it — maybe one day he’ll watch THE SNOWMAN lolololol) and discussing just what it is that makes this cozy epic so great.
