Episode 378: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

We’ve got turtle madness so before enjoying the newest animated adventure of the four ninja brothers next week, we decided to take a look back at a film we absolutely loved when we were both 11 years old. With its practical effects, puppets, and costumes, there’s some incredibly charming (and silly) about this version of the property, and we still find plenty worth praising that has held up just fine over 30 years and despite numerous new imaginings of the same characters.

Episode 377: Barbenheimer

The movie event of the summer is here and we couldn’t just choose one of these great films to discuss, so we’re talking about both! Patrick is out on vacation this weekend but Meredith Loftus is filling on to discuss what made Barbenheimer such a phenomenon, what makes Greta Gerwig’s colorful satirical comedy so meaningful, and how unique and powerful of a biopic Christopher Nolan has crafted. It’s a celebration of great cinema, with a few criticisms here and there, and we hope you enjoy.

Barbie – 13:56

Episode 376: Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One

Rounding out three weeks in a row of mission madness, we dig into the newest entry in Tom Cruise’s blockbuster action spy series. Narratively, this time around we’ve got some notes, and overall feel it missed the depth that some of franchise’s most chilling human villains provided. But even with some issues, the spectacle in incredibly entertaining and the pacing absolutely perfect, resulting in such an exciting and fun experience that we can find ourselves able to forgive this for not quite reaching the Ethan Hunt Hall of Fame.

Episode 375: Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation

Continuing our immersion in the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE franchise over a few weeks, we have a conversation about the franchise’s sixth entry, one that shines for its overall balance of high quality elements. We talk about the addition of Ilsa Faust as a mysterious friend/foe and subtle love interest, how great of an antagonist Solomon Lane and The Syndicate are, and why Ethan’s relationship with his teammates will always make this series special. Plus more, of course, because there are always crazy stunts and intricate set pieces to ooh and aah over, as well.

Episode 374: Mission: Impossible

We’re going back to the beginning (of the movies at least) to start off three weeks of celebrating this outstanding spy series. Tom Cruise instantly becomes the iconic IMF agent Ethan Hunt, we learn about the power of masks, get to see exploding gum, and kick-off a world in which practically everyone goes rogue at some point. This is a very 90s and very De Palma entry in the franchise, but remains one of our most favorites.

Episode 373: Elemental

Pixar brought us one of their most adult films yet in this beautifully animated tale of anthropomorphic elements. There’s a lot going on, though, from a romantic comedy to an immigration allegory and more. We dig into our responses to this somewhat surprising entry from the studio and share what moved us and where we felt it fell a little short.

Episode 372: The Flash

Barry Allen misses his Mom, so he runs backward really fast and reverses time so that he can try and keep here alive in the present. Unsurprisingly, this timeline meddling causes lots of complications, among them Barry having to team up with an alternate version of himself and recruit a new squad of superheroes to help fight off the return of an old/alternate threat. There’s a big mess to unpack in this one, but we are up to the task and try to highlight the things we enjoyed as well being honest about the things we didn’t.

Episode 371: Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal, together, fighting to keep Earth safe along some unlikely human heroes. We dug Steven Caple Jr.’s transportation of the franchise into the 90s for the first time and thought the action, the humor, and the heart were all very solid and helped deliver one of the better films featuring the robots in disguise so far. We question whether there was enough use of the Maximals, discuss the surprise at the end, and try to think through what a perfect Transformers movie would even look like, plus so much more.

Episode 370: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

Our animated web slinger Miles Morales is back and this time he’s got a lot more friends, a new enemy, and some spider-frenemies too. We talk about our love for the animation, of course, how this story utilizes more of a dual protagonist structure, and the fantastic meta narrative about “canon”, among many other things (including a few nit picks). Dive into the Spider-Verse with us this week, and enjoy a great conversation.

Episode 369: You Hurt My Feelings

This week we enjoy taking a break from blockbusters to talk about how a 90-minute movie centered on exploring honesty in relationships could be so relatable, thought-provoking, and entertaining despite its seeming simplicity. We get into some personal examples, as well, so this is one of the episodes where you’ll get to know us better through the conversation.
