149 - Prey

If something is killing for sport, it's a hunter, not a predator. And its kills would not be prey, they would be game, right? Nonetheless, this week we review the Predator prequel, Prey, available to stream on Hulu and Disney+.

143 - Obi-Wan Kenobi

In our first ever TV show episode, we dedicate it to, what else? Star Wars. The Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi has just completed it's first season, so we sit down with frequent show guest Steve to discuss. Of course there are also new development's in the ongoing debate of "Who Is The Phantom Menace" (refer to Line of Sight episode 31) and other Star Wars talk to be had, so we've got over 3 hours of ramblings to sit through, but it feels like 6.

142 - Watching Each Other's Top 100 - Wanderlust & Donnie Brasco

We need to get down to business and start knocking off viewings of each other's Top 100 movies we haven't seen. We pull these picks from the newspaper headlines, with Johnny Depp's Donnie Brasco , and Ray Liota's (sort of) Wanderlust . Other than current events, these two movies seem to have nothing else in common, or do they? You know what to do to find out!

140 - Is Equilibrium Better Than The Matrix?

Black trench coats, stylized gun fights, dodging bullets, hallway shootouts, humanity controlled by overlords, stoic bald black men, trip hop nu metal music... be honest, are you thinking of The Matrix (1999) or Equilibrium (2002)? In either case, you are correct. We take a closer look at the often forgotten "Matrix-inspired" Equilibrium and decide "Is Equilibrium better than The Matrix?"

Do you have a need? Is it for speed? Is your ego writing cheques your body can't cash? Has your breath been taken away? Are you ready for the Danger Zone? It's time to revisit Tony Scott's 1986 original Top Gun before the release of Top Gun: Maverick on May 27.

136 - Under-appreciated Scores

Can't decide if you want to listen to a podcast or to music? Well, then this is the episode for you. A podcast about music, and boy is there a lot of it. We list some of our favourite over-looked movie scores that deserve a little more love. Since the theme of a lot of these tracks is "pleasant" we hope you have a pleasant time listening to them.

131 - Oscars Recap & What We Watched in March

You know what really slaps? The movies we watched last month. Well some of them did. At least one. I'm sure there's something in here worth watching, or maybe this is just a list of movies you should stay away from?

129 - Oscar Talk 2022

Oscar is coming. Are you ready? We did our best to watch a bunch of the Academy Award nominees, but as always there are too many to see, and too many that we have no interest to see. We discuss Belfast, tick tick...BOOM!, Being The Ricardos, Spencer, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, West Side Story, Dune, Don't Look Up, and the highly nominated The Power of the Dog. We'll tell you our picks for the winners, but don't use them for any Oscar pools because we're sure they won't all be winners. With nominati...

127 - The Batman

POW! WHAP! BIFF! The bat is back, but is he better than ever? We discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of Matt Reeves' new Batman film starring Robert Battinson, Zoe Catvitz, and Paul iDunno? Those are all puns based on the characters they play! It can only go up from here.

No, we're not reviewing the 2009 Sandra Bullock/Bradley Cooper comedy "All About Steve." We're going through our friend Steve's top 100 list. Some surprising picks, some not so surprising picks, but rest assured, they're all Steve. Apologies for my poor audio quality. This was our first recording from the road, I believe, so I didn't have my good mic with me in the hotel room.

Do you feel like you've heard this episode before? Are you stuck in a time loop? No, we've just talked about this movie on at least two previous episodes, as it appears on both of our top 100 lists.

We're back to another top ten list! Now that it's the new year, let us reflect on 2021 and shed some light on what first-time watches meant the most to us.
