It's Christmas, so you know what that means, right? Sequel time!!! Two years after our podcast of the first movie, just like this movie and the first movie! Also just like our podcast on the first movie, we talk about Donald Trump because, how can we not? Contains strong language.
December's festive movies continue with this little known family comedy that was once a favourite of both of our hosts. Does it hold up? They talk about that, discuss false advertising and Jimmy defends the song "Baby, it's Cold Outside". Contains strong language.
Jimmy's first pick for the festive season is this modern retelling of A Christmas Carol from Richard Donner. Does this childhood favourite hold up for our Scottish host or has he found more things to annoy him this time round? It's Jimmy, so who knows? Also topics include Bill Murray, Kanye West and an update on stuff from last week's episode. Contains strong language.
It's Christmas! Almost but we're starting early here on the podcast with a full five weeks of festive episodes! First up, this from 1994, when Tim Allen was a huge star, we discuss him as well as Santa in general, Jen learns something gross and Jimmy explains how the podcast views on YouTube are going. Contains strong language.
Taking a break from Thanksgiving movies this year, Jimmy has decided to be patriotic and wants to celebrate St. Andrew's Day with this Scottish classic. Which Jen is watching for the first time. Was she charmed by this teen romantic comedy or was she baffled by the accents? Or both? Or neither? Contains very strong language.
Well... you know this ain't Jimmy's pick but he talks to Jen about it anyway. It's a quick one this week as the pair had very limited time so just as well there isn't really much to talk about anyway. So, they have a discussion about Kevin Smith and Jimmy makes a really bad joke... Contains strong language.
It's November, so lets talk about the Halloween franchise! While Jimmy and Jen take a two week break, enjoy this discussion on the final movie in David Gordon Green's trilogy that's also the end of a four movie arc and the latest movie in the Halloween franchise. They also spoil some of the Friday the 13th franchise and one of them decides if they actually like this movie or not, by episode's end. Contains strong language.
Well, we couldn't do good movies for all of October, right? Well, we say that but neither host actually hate this silly puntastic 90 minute live action cartoon. They also talk about Jen's dislike of one of the movie's stars, guilty pleasures, the upcoming Wednesday Netflix show and disagree about acting quality in horror movies. Contains strong language.
It's Poltergeist time! This is Jen's pick and while this movie is one of our host's favourite horror movies, the other thinks it's fine. Strap in, folks, there be mild disagreements. They talk about the Poltergeist "curse" (how could they not?), Joss Whedon's Firefly and announce what movie is next... Contains strong language.
It's the week of Jimmy's birthday, so he has picked a movie from his year of birth and since it's spooky month, they're talking about Carrie. This is a movie that both hosts love but only one has read the book. They discuss that, the remakes and Jimmy talks about his experience of his very first Comic-Con visit. Contains strong language.
It's spooky season and what better way to start it off with the seventh movie in a franchise? Jimmy and Jen talk about Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, what their favourite horror franchise killer is and just what happened to the Dumbo episode that was supposed to drop last week? Contains very strong language.
What initially starts as a bad pick, this episode on Death Becomes Her actually turns into a fun discussion of a fun movie. Topics include missing cast members, women, cats, and whether 10 year olds should watch Breaking Bad...We actually don't tangent as much as usual, shockingly. Next week, we cover the oldest movie yet on the podcast... Contains strong language.
We're back in the 80s again, with The Monster Squad. Jimmy and Jen discuss the movie, as you'd expect but also the plot holes that come with it. Other topics include the Goonies, the 1990 IT mini-series, Shane Black and Married With Children. This movie actually has a link to that show, kind of. Includes strong language.
Jimmy and Jen dive back into the Drew Barrymore well with this dull movie from 1992. They chat about streaming Vs. physical media, the ditched Batgirl and Scoob movies, Jen's love for cheesy thrillers and Jimmy's love for a particular soft drink that they are not getting sponsored by. Contains strong language.
It's time to visit one of Jimmy's favourites growing up and a movie Jen just watched for the first time. They discuss all the usual things such as the cast but also boobs. it makes sense in the context of this boob-filled movie. Jimmy also drops hints to future movies he may pick and by "drop hints", I mean "says the names of movies he'll pick in the future". Contains strong language.
It's romantic drama time here at So, What's the Problem? Jimmy and Jen discuss the usual and the topics of depression and suicide pop up as that is what this dull movie is about. No clip at the start of this one as Jimmy couldn't find a decent conversation from the movie that didn't have copyrighted music behind it. Contains strong language and no show next week as Jimmy was ill and had lost his voice. We'll be back in early August...
Join Jimmy and Jen as they discuss season 4 of Netflix's Stranger Things. Topics include Stoner culture, Kate Bush, which character we like the least and children swearing. Contains VERY strong language. Like, very very adult language, you have been warned. So, What's the Problem returns next week with Mad Love (1995).
Tysto is back for his pick, which is this star filled comedy. The hosts disagree on a couple of things during their discussion on things such as stunts, Jackie Chan, Burt Reynolds, violence between friends and who does Jimmy prefer? Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck? Listen to the end to hear what the next movie is. It's Jen's pick but it's okay, she told Jimmy and said it was okay for him to announce it. Contains strong language.
Gordon's aliiiive? While Jen is on a break, Jimmy is joined by his friend Tysto of Tysto Commentaries to talk about this weird classic. They talk racial stereotypes, having reactions to movies you have only seen the TV version of and, of course, someone attempts a Brian Blessed impression. Tysto will be back next week with his pick... Contains strong language.
Join Jimmy and Jen as they talk about a movie Jimmy saw for the first time on the day of recording. They discuss the characters, the cast, the book and Jimmy gets a little mean spirited with one of his picks. Just a little bit. Oh and since this movie is called Election, expect things to get a bit political. Again, though, just a little bit. It's Jen's last show for a few weeks but she'll be back in July. Listen to the end to hear what Jimmy's plans for those Jen-less episodes are.
Jimmy and Jen make a long overdue re-visit to the decade the former was born in to discuss Roger Moore's first Bond movie. Jimmy, with zero authority, teaches Jen about Bond and Jen smiles and nods politely. Contains strong language.
We're back and for our first official episode of year three, Jen picked a Chris Columbus movie from the 80s! We talk about offensive language, Girl Meets World, The Rolling Stones, Friends and Kevin Spacey. You know, the usual. Contains strong language.
So, here it is, our year two clip show! A collection of clips from the second year of our podcast. Revisit moments from 48 Hrs., Beauty and the Beat, Halloween 3,Blind Date and more! Re-listen to the rants, the the tangents and the mistakes. Contains strong language, as usual. It's be weird if I edited all of the swearing out.
Hey, folks, Jimmy and Jen are taking a wee break but since they don't want to leave you all with no shows, they have decided to release clip shows. Is that lazy? Not really, it still took Jimmy weeks to listen to the episodes again to find clips and then edit them together. Really doesn't feel like a break at all... anyway, enjoys this "best of" from the first year of the podcast and hopefully next week will be highlights from year two. Contains strong language.
It’s our second anniversary on May 11th so Jimmy and Jen did what they did last year and just chatted for almost an hour. Topics include potential movies to be covered, repetition and Jimmy goes asks Jen some questions regarding the first two years. As always, includes strong language. Next week, will be our very first clip show!
It's prom season, so we're covering the original Prom Night! It's a movie one of us doesn't like very much and one the other likes kind of a little bit. We talk about disappearing characters, pointless dance sequences and Blu-ray commentators missing a major plot point. Stay tuned to hear our plans for May as it's anniversary month at the podcast. Shockingly contains strong language!
Back to 1987 with our first Ted Danson movie, first Tom Selleck movie and third Steve Guttenberg movie. But who's counting? We talk Urban Legends, the stress of having newborn babies and disagree on one element of the movie. Next week, we are tackling a horror movie... wooooo! Contains strong language. Send us feedback or questions, opinions etc at [email protected]
So, we are doing another sequel to a movie we've covered and guess what? There is still one major problem with it. We do talk about the positives of that problem, though without outright justifying it. Other topics include model shots that may not be model shots, the unofficial Short Circuit 3 that you can watch on YouTube and Jimmy hints at his plans for the upcoming anniversary of the podcast. Contains strong language because Jimmy just can't help himself.
It's sequel time and here is one of a movie we've already covered. Which is rare. Jimmy and Jen kind of agree on the movie and discuss retconning, boring pointless plotlines and Jimmy yet again rages war on a character. It'll be another sequel next week, tune in to find out what. Contains (very) strong language.
Jimmy and Jen discuss the bleak horror drama that is Big. They also talk about the Oscars, Jimmy's trip to New York, the MCU (again, sorry) and Jimmy says "you know" a lot at one point. It's quite odd, you know? We both watched the theatrical version but talk about the extended cut too, Jimmy watched extra scenes for the purpose of discussion. Contains strong language and adult themes. Hey, blame the movie!
