588: "Stampede!!!" | Jumanji (1995)
40 minutes ago
40 minutes ago
Grab the dice and watch out for monkeys, because we’re diving headfirst into the stampede of sound, spectacle, and emotional storytelling that is Jumanji (1995). It’s a jungle-in-a-box, people! Vines through the ceiling, carnivorous plants in the kitchen, and a board game that makes Monopoly look like a nap.
Robin Williams swings in as a man-child with jungle PTSD, Bonnie Hunt brings the therapy and the sarcasm, and two traumatized kids have to survive a suburban safari of crocodiles, monsoons, and—you guessed it—giant freakin’ mosquitoes. Roll those dice, face your fears, and join us as we crack open this wild '90s time capsule—because in Jumanji, the only way out… is through.

It’s Mike and Marcus at their loudest, baddest, and most dysfunctional—and we’re here to celebrate every excessive explosion!

Step into the rustbelt boardrooms and brake pad warehouses of Tommy Boy, where slapstick meets sincerity under the flickering lights of a family-run auto parts empire.

582: "I'm tired of being alone" | Leaving Las Vegas (1995)
Wednesday Apr 23, 2025
Wednesday Apr 23, 2025
This week, we're watching Leaving Las Vegas, a film that doesn’t ask for redemption, only recognition. Nicolas Cage gives us Ben, unraveling with grace and fire, while Elisabeth Shue’s Sera offers a love that doesn’t try to fix—just to see. Together, they create something devastatingly honest: a portrait of two broken souls who find fleeting solace in each other’s ruin.

Monday Apr 21, 2025
Monday Apr 21, 2025
Draw the curtains and lean in close as we descend into the dreamy, disquieting world of Blue Velvet. For our 10th anniversary rewatch, we’ll peel back the facade of small-town America to explore the shadows underneath—desire, violence, and the search for truth. Through David Lynch’s surreal lens, we’ll examine the collision of innocence and corruption, the intoxicating pull of mystery, and the way darkness often hides in plain sight.

Wednesday Apr 09, 2025
This week, we're grabbing a courtside seat and catching a flight back to Forget Paris. There's the often-comedic chaos of married life, the clever friends-at-a-restaurant framing device, and that signature Billy Crystal charm. Is it a funny, insightful look at making love last beyond the honeymoon phase—or does the reality of career clashes make you want to, well, forget Paris?
