Episode 190 (Airheads)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 1994 comedy Airheads. It was a weird experience watching it again after about 20 years since the last viewing, because, the movie is a 1990's time capsule featuring "before they were huge" actors such as Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, Adam Sandler and Chris Farley. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about cottage cheese, The Counting Crows and a plethora of insults. If you are a fan of Airheads, you will love this podcast.

Episode 189 (The Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies Ranked)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're ranking the 21 movies that make up the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The MFF podcast contributors ranked the movies, and we tallied the scores to crown a very worthy champion (Iron Man...because it's the best!). In this podcast, you will hear us talk about missing Kat Denning in the Thor movies, and the greatness of Michael Pena's Luis character from the Ant-Man franchise. If you are a fan of the MCU you will love this podcast.

Episode 188 (Cliffhanger)
Mark and Adam (of the GoFigure YouTube show) talk about the 1993 action-epic Cliffhanger. We love this Renny Harlin directed film and couldn't wait to talk about John Lithgow punching Sylvester Stallone in the ribs, and the actual cost of hijacking a plane in the air. In this episode, they also discuss burger restaurants, weird kicking choices, and flannels that are way too big. If you are a fan of Cliffhanger, you will love this episode.

Episode 187 (Willow)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the underrated 1988 fantasy film Willow. Writer/producer George Lucas and director Ron Howard teamed up to make a very fun film featuring a 17-year old Warwick Davis and a very game Val Kilmer battling evil wizards, two-headed dragons and gross trolls. The movie holds up really well because of the practical effects, massive sets and beautiful New Zealand locations which make everything look epic. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about brownies on eagles, wizard fistfights and Val Kilmer being a believable badass. If you are a fan of Willow, you will love this episode.

Episode 186 (Knightriders)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about a movie that features motorcycle jousting, renaissance fairs and Tom Savini in a major role. George Romero's underappreciated 1981 movie is 145 minutes of uniqueness, and we don't think any other director could've (or would've) made anything similar. In this podcast, you will hear us discuss lecherous knights, Ed Harris looking jacked, and the amount of money needed to keep a traveling renaissance fair featuring motorcycle jousting profitable. If you are a fan of George Romero, you will love this episode.

Episode 185 (Constantine)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the underappreciated 2005 film Constantine. We're big fans of Francis Lawrence's Hellblazer adaption, so we read copious articles, listened to the DVD commentaries and found some great stuff to share with you. We still can't believe he got Tilda Swinton, Peter Stormare, Rachel Weisz, Djimon Hounsou and Keanu Reeves to appear (and look awesome) in this movie. In this episode, you will hear us talk about kicking crabs, smoking spiders and Gavin Rossdale rocking some sweet tailored suits. If you are a fan of Constantine, you will love this episode.

Episode 184 (The Faculty)
The MFF Podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 1998 cult classic The Faculty. Written by Kevin Williamson (Scream) and directed by Robert Rodriguez (Desperado, From Dusk Till Dawn), this film has aged-well because of its smart script, solid performances and original monster who loves water, and hates drugs called Scat. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about spitting monsters, water consumption and a creature named Jensen. If you are a fan of The Faculty you will love this episode.

Episode 183 (Thirteen Ghosts - 2001)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 2001 cult classic Thi13en Ghosts. It's one of Roger Ebert's most hated movies, however, we appreciate the production design, practical effects and Matthew Lillard going full action hero. This $42 million budgeted horror remake went out of its way to be innovative, and we think it's aged-well because of the beautifully constructed glass set and "juicy" ghosts who were created by Greg Nicotero, Robert Kurtzman and their KNB effects house. If you are a fan of Thi13en Ghosts you will love this episode.

Episode 182 (Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter AND Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter and Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday. We love these movies because they are incredibly weird and feature some of the most random moments of the franchise (Corkscrew!). In this podcast, you will hear us talk about random side characters, inventive dancing, and a guy named Mahoney having to clean up an exploded Jason Voorhees. If you are a fan of the Friday the 13th franchise, you will love this podcast.

Episode 181 (They Live)
The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the John Carpenter directed 'They Live'. It's one of our favorite movies and we loved talking the glasses, bubblegum and epic fights featured in the film. With 'They Live', John Carpenter delivered a timeless tale of yuppie aliens infiltrating earth and bombarding humans with messages about consumerism. They are stopped when a plaid clothed man rises up (with his buddy Frank) and goes to war with the yuppie aliens, who would never be caught wearing plaid. If you are a fan of 'They Live' you will love this episode.
