Creativity never rests, but people certainly do. As Bryan excitedly prepares for his trip to Chicago by revisiting the Windy City classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Houston stumbles through the episode in his sleep-deprived state just waiting for it to be done. When all said and done though, being filled with sharks, Charlie Sheen (who we refer to as Martin Sheen), and an infamous serial killer known as the Pittsburgh Poisoner, this is one movie sequel you don't want to sleep on. Spoilers: None F...
Sep 27, 2018•40 min•Transcript available on Metacast Oops, we made a sequel to the Three Amigos based on the music of one of Bryan's favorite bands, They Might Be Giants. I feel like you don't need any more information than that. I think we also earned the distinction of being the first comedy podcast to take 39 episodes to make our first dick joke...and it's in Spanish. Also, in Bryan's defense, John Turturro's character on Mr. Deeds *is* named Emilio. Spoilers: If you are worried about spoilers to the ¡Three Amigos!, maybe skip this one. Feature...
Sep 13, 2018•44 min•Transcript available on Metacast Bryan and Houston head in some interesting directions while struggling to keep all of Hollywood's hottest Chrises and Kristens in line. When Bryan came up with this episode concept, he didn't consider the fact that there's currently a film in theaters called Christopher Robin, so we end up going even deeper into the Chris-iverse than we expected. Also, Houston reveals his deep-seated prejudices and character flaws...like laughing way too hard at the phrase "nightmare Pooh". Visit our sponsor: ht...
Aug 30, 2018•42 min•Transcript available on Metacast In this Enya-infused episode, we explore the possibilities of the new Oscars "popular" category by giving a second chance to movies that could have won it if it had existed sooner. It's good we were doing a mashup episode to give us more chances at striking gold because some of the ideas we discuss on this episode are what the movie industry calls "bad ideas for movies". Luckily, Jackie Chan and Mila Kunis saved the day as always. Also, Bryan keeps talking about Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals.Sp...
Aug 21, 2018•1 hr 3 min•Ep 37•Transcript available on Metacast In this episode, we find out Houston is really good at guessing Tom Cruise trivia. Or is he secretly president of the Tom Cruise fan club? Either way, our Mission Impossible sequel is a completely grounded, logical homage to Tom Cruise's illustrious career. At one point, we missed the opportunity to say "Brooklyn Nein Nein!" and really regretted it. So if you could just think of it when we get to that point? You'll know when. While we're doing corrections, pretend we made fun of MoviePass for no...
Aug 01, 2018•42 min•Ep 36•Transcript available on Metacast Honestly, we burned through a lot of the big movies this summer in the last one, so we were left with Hotel Transylvania 3. I think most people agree that Adam Sandler has really found where he belongs with the HT franchise, but we wanted to revisit some of his less successful outings to see what we could do to bring some SilverScreen Redemption-style redemption to this tortured soul. We like to think we made the best Adam Sandler movie of all time. Note: Adam Sandler is not in the film. Check o...
Jul 18, 2018•49 min•Transcript available on Metacast Okay, so we're honestly not that psyched about Jurassic World 2: Fallen Kingdom, but we figured we had to do something with it. Basically this is our reality show episode with a few mentions of Jurassic World. I realized after we recorded that some listeners might not know who Corinne from The Bachelor is. Go watch www.bit.ly/silverscreencorn if you really feel the need to know who she is. Or don't. Check out our sponsor and friend of the show, Edward the App, at www.edwardtheapp.com Spoilers: N...
Jul 06, 2018•49 min•Transcript available on Metacast The time has come. We've been relying on making sequels to other people's movies for too long. This time we made a sequel to our own movie that we also came up with this episode. We took lessons from some of the world's biggest franchises: Santo Contra el Cerebro del Mal, Wong Fei Hung, and Scooby Doo. Did I mention that by "big", I just mean that they have a lot of movies in them? Even Houston hadn't heard of half of these movies. Also, we try extremely hard to be very diverse in our casting an...
Jun 14, 2018•48 min•Ep 33•Transcript available on Metacast I guess we're not going to wait to see Incredibles 2 before making the next entry in the franchise. This one is all about FroZone and his family. Nope, we didn't know their last name is Best either or we probably would have given the movie a fun name based on that. Nope, it's just called The FroZone Story. And we'd like to give a shoutout to Part Time Genius, because I'm pretty sure most of this episode is just Bryan repeating things he heard in their episode about Sesame Street. Also, www.Edwar...
May 31, 2018•49 min•Ep 32•Transcript available on Metacast While Houston and Bryan can't agree on the worst season of Community, they can agree that it deserves #6seasonsandamovie. Continuing to ride the Infinity War high, we create the *next* most ambitious crossover event in history. Also, we have to trick Donald Glover and Chevy Chase into making this one.

May 17, 2018•46 min•Transcript available on Metacast IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN AVENGERS INFINITY WAR YET, READ HERE: Houston and Bryan typically like to make up fake spoilers for movies that have recently come out for comedic purposes. However, sometimes those fake spoilers are strangely on point. We make up fake spoilers for this episode, which are not completely accurate, but we do feel the spirit of it them are similar to the events of the movie. We didn't want to ruin anyone's experience with seeing Infinity War by chance so we delayed the release ...
May 02, 2018•52 min•Transcript available on Metacast Did you know Elton John is the executive producer of Sherlock Gnomes? Yeah, *that* Elton John. That's why the movies are filled with his gnomber one hit songs. Anyways, we made a sequel to it without knowing that. Man, I bet we could have done some good Elton John references. Like…there could be a gnome who is a Tiny Dancer? Honestly they could have done that in Sherlock Gnomes and Gnomeo and Juliet and we wouldn't know because we've never seen these movies. This sequel is really good though. Al...
Apr 11, 2018•45 min•Transcript available on Metacast Houston was sick for this episode, so Bryan and Studio Executive Kalen Black talk about something he has zero to little interest in, High School Musical. Cool, that's fine, talk about it while he is away. But guess who still had to edit it anyways and is real grumpy about it?... Did you ever wonder how Troy Bolton got to where he was in high school? Have you ever wanted to see a Disney Channel Original Movie about swimming where the kid doesn't CHEAT…BECAUSE HE'S A FREAKING MERMAN? (Looking at y...
Mar 31, 2018•51 min•Transcript available on Metacast As we review the best of the best movies that we've ever seen, we get nervous about making jokes about actual good movies, so we end up making a great sequel to Atlantis: The Lost Empire, one of the most underrated animated movies of all time. But yeah, this episode feels like an actual movie podcast, weirdly enough. Spoilers: Good Will Hunting, The Prestige. Featured Movie: Pompeii: The Lost Empire Inspired by: Atlantis: The Lost Empire Directed by: Robert Zemeckis Starring: Don Novello and Ter...
Mar 16, 2018•1 hr 3 min•Transcript available on Metacast Should you make the movie or read the book first? Holly from the hit podcast Shelley Has Opinions (www.shelleyhasopinions.com) has opinions…and helps us make a hit movie based on one of the least likely books to base a movie on. Also, we cure racism on this episode again. Does anyone know if Chloe Kim can act?

Mar 08, 2018•58 min•Ep 26•Transcript available on Metacast We bring some real credibility to the show this Oscars Special by bringing on the director (indirectly) responsible for directing The Last Jedi and (even more indirectly) Looper. As we try to make the Best Picture Nominees more relatable for the average moviegoer, we talk about Nazi mimes, why Bigfoot should have been in the Princess Diaries, and a Minions/Shape of Water crossover you're glad we don't explore any further. SPOILERS: Lady Bird, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, Get Out Fea...
Feb 22, 2018•52 min•Transcript available on Metacast In honor of the Golden Raspberry awards, we turn our attention to the worst of the worst of 2017. Somehow, we end up turning the whole thing into a Pokemon thing and revealing that Weird Al is the true "Last Knight" of Transformers. I guess that's what happens when neither of us know that much about Transformers. Warning: really good puns in this one Spoilers: None Featured Movie: Pokeformers: The Series Inspired by: The 2018 Razzie's Nominations for Worst Picture Directed by: The 2018 Razzie's ...
Feb 08, 2018•52 min•Transcript available on Metacast There's, like, actual spoilers in this one. Why? Because we're talking about a movie that hasn't come out yet. How, you ask? Because for once, we actually picked up a book. In this reverse-Jumanji tribute (which is actually just original Jumanji) to younger siblings everywhere, we make up for the fact that the plot is super contrived by flooding you with pop culture references you'll love (just like the *real* Ready Player One!) Spoilers: Ready Player One (The Book); Ex Machina Featured Movie: R...
Jan 24, 2018•46 min•Ep 23•Transcript available on Metacast Two classic stories that tell the heroic deeds of the lower class come together in one exciting new mashup. Aladdin and Robin Hood--both underdogs who become legends--were always meant to be in a story together…because they both happened to have movies made about them in the early nineties.

As part of our Tarantino Trek vs. Waititi Wars challenge, we expanded on everyone's favorite part of the new Star Wars movie--the meaningless side quest in the [redacted].

Dec 29, 2017•43 min•Transcript available on Metacast As the SilverScreen Redemption method for making movies leaks into the real world, we give Quentin Tarantino some tips on his upcoming Star Trek film. We make a lot of decisions real Star Trek fans would probably hate, but sometimes you have to break something down to build it back up again. Also, we don't know all that much about Star Trek.

Dec 12, 2017•45 min•Transcript available on Metacast Houston was off getting married this week, but we were fortunate to have Jake and Krystal Bush, two of our studio executives with us as we back away from the big-budget Marvel movies of last week and explore a couple of lesser-known, quirky, indie flicks that are more in sync with each other than the Hiphopapotamus and the Rhymenocerous...

Nov 30, 2017•50 min•Transcript available on Metacast Time to Ragnarok 'n' Roll with our Marvel Movie Mash. If you know Kevin Feige (not pronounced like 'beige' I found out), you might want to let him know about this episode. He'll probably take all of the current plans for the MCU and throw them in a dumpster fire so they can make our incredible movie. There are now 3 infinity gauntlets, a mediterranean Kaiju, and it's a Psych/Sherlock crossover?

Oct 31, 2017•42 min•Ep 17•Transcript available on Metacast Today we get direct help from one of our studio execs, Joseph Young. No dogs die in this movie…because they're already dead! (No, it's not a Burton nor a Shyamalan movie.) Let's be honest: this one got away from us a little bit. But then we got it back and created a wholesome, VHS-only Pizza Hut promotional offer the whole family can enjoy! Plus, we imagine what the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles look like with little neckties. Cuuuute! Spoilers: Logan (Oddly Enough) Featured Movie: Pizza Hut Prou...
Oct 17, 2017•45 min•Ep 16•Transcript available on Metacast Better late than never! This week, we ignore the fact that people are kind of sick of Lego movies and take the franchise in…actually a pretty likely direction. Like, we talk a big game sometimes, but I could actually see Lego making this movie. Seriously, it's got everything--Lego bricks (not Legos), Chris Pratt, a minor character from Community, programming, and the important lesson to "Be creative...but not *too* creative!"
