Scary movie month begins! It's October and, following podcast tradition, we're watching horror movies all month long! The first double feature? Phantasm (1979) and Hellraiser (1987)! In a rambling discussion consisting of 3 separate portions due to a cranky baby, we talk about the Tall Man's mustardness, flying balls at your face!, dwarf slaves, "Pin Cushion Man & the Cinnabon Crew," the grossest love story EVER, Disneyland rides, Honey Boo Boo and MUCH much more! We even amazingly keep it P...

It's Robocop vs The Terminator... at The Hunger Games ?! Ok, not really. But it could happen (Team Robocop for the win)! This week, J and K flail about in the shallow end of 80s cyborg film criticism, noting that (a) Detroit is not a very nice place (b) Red Forman - Eric's ' That '70s' Dad! - is a *badass* and (c) you probably should NOT broadcast your whereabouts when there's a serial killer hunting down people with your exact name. Also, you should consider Benjamin Buttoning down before you'r...

WE BACK! Due to our little now-6-week-old visitor and the temporary death of our laptop, we had to take a short respite. But we're here and briefly discussing 3 movies we watched over the sleep-deprived break! Babies, notorious teens and Michael J. Fox getting naked in a high-rise elevator! How could you ever go wrong? (Answer: YOU CAN'T!) FAIR IS FAIR! Excuse our spontaneous brain farts! We're still trying to figure this whole having-a-baby thing out! She even makes her 1st appearance on the po...

ZOMBIES!!!! BRAINS!!! We have a 2 week newborn at home! So we taped a ZOMBIE TRIPLE FEATURE ahead of time! Very smart in hindsight! We feel like walking zombies ourselves! NEED SLEEP!!! ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sooo, we watched both the O.G. Dawn of the Dead and the 2004 remake! Plus, Justin's favorite zombie movie from childhood, The Return of the Living Dead ! Did Krissy appreciate it all?? Which did she like best! You must listen to find out! It's all PG-15ish, we think! Can't remember! New p...

Kevin Bacon rules, you guys. Thought you should know. You should also know that we just had a baby and are apparently never sleeping AGAIN. Thus, this week we see the release of the infamous "lost episode" of the podcast in which we discuss the 1984 version of FOOTLOOSE. We tried recording it several times and eventually thought it was forever gone. But we found it. In our stupid computer hiding. And here it is! It's a blast from the past in audio form! Rated PG-15 because I'm pretty sure we tal...

Kids! Can't live with 'em! Can't easily kill 'em if they happen to be a raving penmanship-medal coveting psychotic or the Antichrist! This week's double feature is all about wild and crazy progeny with The Bad Seed (1956) and the original The Omen (1976)! Why these two? Because we're having a baby this week! A real one! And we're hoping she doesn't come out already wanting to murder us! The resulting discussion from these two flicks has us expounding upon that fear, plus terrible impressions, th...

The long wait is over, dear friends... Justin and Krissy are here, hyped up on morphine fumes and hot, stinky dog farts, and ready to discuss all things BATMAN - namely the recent ones K hadn't seen yet - Batman Begins and The Dark Knight Rises !! We're not gonna lie though - some of this podcast may end up letting you down, much like one of the movies (ooh, but which ?). There's just so much to discuss: increasingly unintelligible accents, how bombs are supposed to work, THEmes of morality, jus...

Dear Sly Stallone: although you've made a plethora of fine films, Krissy hadn't ever seen any of them (NOT ONE!) until just this week! SHENANIGANS! Right? I know. So when picking out the double feature to intro her to your Sly-ness, we went with your most famous, ROCKY (1976), and one of your most infamous, OVER THE TOP (1987)!!! What did she think? Which did she prefer? You have to listen to get the full tilt boogie. But I can give a few clues of what we discussed: Justin's personal Rocky story...

If you're anti-rape, anti-misogyny, and anti-racism (ahem, Saturday Night Fever )... but PRO male exotic dancers with fun names like 'The Worm' (looking at you, Channing Tatum/Justin Winters), have we got a podcast for YOU!! Three dancey-dance movies are up for discussion this week - Magic Mike, Flashdance, and SNF - but only one can win that coveted oh-so-ginormous 1st place trophy! And we'll give you a hint - it's not the one that features a lead whose day job involves working with tools. Well...

This week, we took in a PIXAR trio and a brand new indie on Justin's birthday! With only a few more weeks to go until our little visitor arrives, we thought it was time to get animated, y'all! Who doesn't love a movie that the kids can enjoy while their parents sob softly nearby? (Tear...tear...tear.) Did the brand new Brave make the grade? Have we joined the cult of red-haired Merida? ALSO... Ratatouille or The Incredibles ? And...What are our top 5 favorite Pixar flicks of all time? Plus, we t...

Who are we? Why are we here? WHEN WILL THE ANDROIDS DESTROY US AND WHAT DO THE BLACK LEGGOS MEAN?? Life's most burning questions are asked on this week's podcast (with Prometheus and 2001: A Space Odyssey ), and J and K are only too happy to try and find the answers. ...And by 'try and find the answers' I mean grasp at straws and (literally) navel gaze through an hour of infrared flipcam bad guys, ice queen puah up girls with daddy issues, and a vast quilt of nonsense. Join us through the techni...

EPISODE 100!! Holy crap we made it! Without killing each other! So we celebrate by finally forcing Krissy to watch all 3 of the Lord of the Rings movies for the very first time! FINALLY! And guess what? It only took TEN FRIGGIN' DAYS! Did we mention we watched the Extended Editions? Cause we did! And it took FOREVER. If you're looking for a serious discussion about LOTR , you've come to the wrong place. If you want to hear 2 people talk about Frodo acting like a wuss, Gandalf changing colors ine...

We got 99 episodes and a witch ain't [in] one of them! Unless you count a telekinetic teenager with serious mommy/Jesus/bully issues. Because we DEFINITELY have one of those! We've also got the lowdown on stalking your favorite author/actor/famous person ( Misery style), how (not) to get in trouble for poking your students, and the inside track on Carol Smith!! This podcast may be rated PG-13, but only listen if you're not opposed to violent commentary and innuendo - plus a frank discussion on t...

Talkative Southern women in a hair salon vs. faking your own death to get away from your psycho husband with a mysterious mustache!!! Duh duh DUH!!!!! PLUS...Julia Roberts double feature! DUH! Which movie - Steel Magnolias vs. Sleeping with the Enemy - did Krissy enjoy more the 1st time up?? Is she the last female drama nerd to see the former? Does Shirley MacClaine actually believe in aliens? What is up with Julia Roberts' mommy haircut in that movie? Or either movie? We talk a lot about hair. ...

This week, your favorite movie geek couple hunker down for three - count 'em, 3! - Marvel comic movies... One of which may or may not currently be the biggest movie in the world. (MOVIE SMASH!!!) Iron Man 2, Thor a nd The Avengers ! It might have been too much super awesomness for our ADHD-riddled brains to process though, as we were easily sidetracked by things like closed captioning devices, bright phones, and the MOST ANNOYING children ever to have gone to the theater. ( "Huhuhuhuhuh...YEAH!!...

Monsters, Graboids, and Critters - oh my!! This week is all about 80s cult classic movies Monster Squad, Tremors, and Critters... But J and K really boil it down and talk about the important stuff: dinosaurs in Elizabethan collars, furry red-eyed-rolling testicles, playing skip-it against giant burrowing penis worms (who are really just misunderstood and need a friend), and the merit of swimming against the vortex a la Van Helsing. Ahem. WHY ARE WE ALLOWED TO HAVE CHILDREN?? Our poor baby will b...

It's late at night and someone is stalking you with a hockey mask and a bear trap. Do you A) shave your head as fast as you can and throw on some makeup, B) read that book you've been putting off for months or C) listen to the latest episode of SIMAMG, where we discuss the new/excellent/under-the-radar Cabin in the Woods AND force Krissy to watch her very first Friday the 13th movie - The Final Chapter ! Yes, she popped her Jason Voorhees cherry! But he might not be happy after she totally calls...

It's finally happened. No, not the much-prophesied 2012 Mayan end of the world (we gotta hold on for August!), but something SO MUCH MORE EPIC. Wait for it... Wait for it... JUSTIN SAW TITANIC WITH KRISSY! IN A REAL THEATRE! IN 3D!! IMAX 3D!!! OMGGGGG!!!! Did he love it? Did he finally have a drunk-on-love-James Cameron-induced epiphany? Or did Krissy just tape his eyes open and force him to take it (and spit!) like a man? Actually, Justin was a great sport. Just don't ask him about his feelings...

NERDS!!!!!!!!!!!!! We continue the momentum from our most highly listened month EVER on SIMAMG by tripling down with a NERD TRIPLE FEATURE! And all 3 are from the 80s, Krissy's favorite decade! (Not really) Which one did she like best? Was it Ghostbusters 2 , Revenge of the Nerds or Short Circuit ? Would you believe us when you find out she didn't fall asleep during any of them?!? To make it fun/unpredictable, we go from least fave to most fave in order! It's all very scientific with impressions...

Four movies. One podcast. Ohh, this one's a doozy, folks. And did we mention that our marquee movie is The Hunger Games ? There's a reason this week's podcast is so long - when it comes to talking about the Games, THERE ISN'T ENOUGH TIME IN THE WORLD! Also, Justin would argue that Krissy is a big ol' neeeeerd and felt the need to make a bullet point list about all her Hunger Games likes and gripes. That definitely took some time. But you know what? It's worth it; this podcast has always been aaa...

It's an organized crime DOUBLE FEATURE in yo ears, ya'll! And two of the most popular ones of all time at that: Goodfellas (1990) and Scarface (1983)! Did Krissy stay awake through the multi-hour - bang bang, eff this, eff that - adventures with Henry Hill and Tony Montana? Was she disgusted by the extreme violence and bad language? You'll have to listen to find out! We also discuss DOING TONS OF COKE!!!!, Scorsese, mafia life lessons, Joe Pesci, stirring the sauce, good vs. bad soundtracks, cha...

SPORTS! DOUBLE! FEATURE! Men playing with their balls and stuff! Don't you just love it?!? We sure do! So much so that we chose this week as the one in which Krissy would finally watch one of the most famous sports movies of all time: Varsity Blues ! No wait... Bull Durham ? What about BOTH OF THEM!?!? Right? You're feeling a little tingly in the nether regions just thinking of all this sports-related conversation, aren't you? We have to admit that this podcast is seriously cray cray. It include...

Oscars Shmoscars. Who wants to sit around and golf-clap to fancy Best Picture winners like The Artist when you could watch and discuss Fatal Attraction and Fear instead?! Clearly, J and K have decided to take the road less traveled this year. In fact, it may not even be a road... but a Choose Your Own Adventure masturbatory roller coaster ride with Glenn...we mean...Albert Nobbs! Either way, it's a truly harebrained ride on the good ol' podcast crazy train. We discuss the merit (or lack thereof)...

We're baaaack! Did you miss us? The Medieval Times Hospital we were in last week just didn't have good enough wi-fi for a podcast... Sorry! But the good news is we're alive and kicking - some of us are even kicking from inside the womb now! Yes, the baby officially has ears and can hear us as we rattle on about this week's movies - The Vow and the little-known Defending Your Life. Just don't let the baby hear what this podcast is really all about (murder, office whore-ery, purgatory, love flatul...

The power of LANDIS compels you! Yes, it's a Landis family double feature this week as we watch our first movie of 2012 in the theaters, Chronicle (written by Max Landis) and pair it with Krissy's first John Belushi movie EVER, 1978's Animal House (directed by Max's dad, John Landis). And between grumbling about jobs, exhaustion, lack of sleep, pregnancy brain, etc., we discuss moving things with our minds, the suspension-of-disbelief-a-meter, rainbows and third-world countries, flying pitstops,...

BREAKING NEWS! The So I Married a Movie Geek foray into Director's Month is being abbreviated - cut short! ended! sayonara! - to make room for an important announcement and subsequent podcast... Whatever could it be? Are J and K moving to the Ukraine, becoming gypsies and hiring Maggie as their manager?? No. But we promise the news and ensuing discussion are pretty EPIC. And by epic, we definitely mean 'crazy' and 'all over the place.' Parenthood and Hugh Grant's Nine Months make for some good i...

Krissy's finally been Hitchcock'd! YES! For our next week in "Directors Month," we watched Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960) and Rear Window (1954), making them the very first Hitchcock movies Krissy has EVER SEEN. Say whaaaaaaat???!?? Thank Jeebus we have this podcast so we could rectify that crazy happenstance. And since we were rollin' late on this episode, we tried to keep it shortish, even using a stopwatch. The timed discussion includes crazy talk 'bout Norman Bates' "nervousity," bad taste...

January = Director's Month here at So I Married a Movie Geek , and what better way to start it off than with two movies by the Coors Brothers -- err, Coen Brothers. (The former brothers tried to make beer and failed. The latter make movies!) So J and K got saddled up for a crazy, greedy/murderous romp through all the states they'd never want to actually be in for prolonged periods of time. Yes -- all the way to Fargo and the land where Mexican mariachi bands awaken you from your bloody stupor wi...

Happy new year, y'all!! Before we proceeded with the awesomeness that is 2012, we took an episode-long look back at our favorite films of 2011! So we each had our own personal lists with some honorable mentions on the side! Which movies would be the ones we'd most likely watch again and again a few years from now? If we had 10 flicks from the past year to take onto a desert island, which ones would we choose? Could we (gasp) have the same #1 movie??? ALSO, Krissy looks at the list of 68 movies (...

Since Krissy (of course) had never seen a Mission: Impossible movie beforehand, this week we watched the 1996 original in preparation for an IMAX screening of the brand new Mission 4 ! This one involved GHOSTS! Or did it? Which one wowed us more? And what did we think of the extended trailer that ran before the movie for The Dark Knight Rises ? You should listen! Because, well, we talk about all of that...stuff! We also discuss exploding chewing gum and French aquarium restaura...
