A podcast from two cousins who grew up watching movies together. We watch new movies, re-watch classics from earlier times in our life, and cover movies/franchises that others may have seen that we have never watched. The question we ask at the end of the epsidoe is Do We like this Movie?

We return to the world of famed novelist Ira Levine (Rosemary's Baby) to review the 1975 adaptation of his novel The Stepford Wives. This film follows New York City photographer Joanna Eberhart as she and her family relocate (at the behest of her husband Walter) to the suburb of Stepford. Idealized as a throwback to the bygone era of the 1950s before the Women's liberation movement, Joanna quickly discovers that the women in this town are not what they seem.

This week we finally review the Academy Award winner for Best Picture in 2019. As the most unusual 2020 Oscars are now approaching we wanted to review the most recent winner, which was directed by Bong Joon-ho. This dark comedy, became a world-wide phenomenon and it is likely due to the themes explored. Few films have so perfectly illustrated the ever-widening wealth gap in capitalist countries. This may be one of the best conversations we have ever had on the show.

The 2018 sequel to Jurassic World takes a wild left turn as it recast's Bryce Dallas Howard's Claire Dearing as a Dinosaur Activist who is trying to rescue the Dinosaurs on Isla Nublar from an erupting volcano that threatens to destroy the island. She is doing this with the help of Owen Grady (Chris Pratt), and the original partner of John Hammond. Directed by J.A. Bayona who's best known for 2007's The Orphanage, this is perhaps the more horror-mood movie in this series. Join us this week and we visit the Fallen Kingdom.

Part 2 of our Christmas Double Feature has us reviewing a film written by friend of the show Chris Columbus (lol) and Directed by Joe Dante. This is the wicked Christmas tale about a swarm of little green monsters who wreak havoc on the small town of Kingston Falls. This is also the film that became responsible for the PG-13 rating.
Thank you and Happy Holidays to all our listeners.

We wanted to do something different for Halloween this year. This episode came out of a loose discussion with a friend and listener of the show about Friday The 13th Part VII: Jason Takes Manhattan. It evolved into a discussion about how 1989 was the year that Friday The 13th 8, Nightmare on Elm St. 5, and Halloween 5 which were all released in the same year were the awful sequels in each franchise jumped the shark and killed the 80s Slasher.
We discuss the how we arrived at each sequel, how truly awful they all were, and where the franchises went after that point. It's a different structure than our normal shows but we truly had fun recording this one and we want to wish our audience safe, socially distant, and Happy Halloween.
