Movies, Films and Flix

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 1999 horror comedy Idle Hands. We hadn't watched this movie since 1999, so it was fun to see it again and realize we liked it much more when we were teenagers. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about the fantastic special effects, severed limbs and soundtrack that blasted our favorite 1990s songs (Offspring!). If you are a fan of Idle Hands, you will love this podcast.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're bringing you a massive episode about the 2018 film Peter Rabbit. This might be the most MFF podcast ever as we talk about talking pigs, rabbits with jackets, and saving an event centered around pottery. We also answer a lot of Peter Rabbit themed questions and put together an animated animals crew that get into some dark shenanigans. If you are a fan of Peter Rabbit and side discussions you will love this episode.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 1996 cult classic The Frighteners. We love director Peter Jackson's CGI extravaganza and appreciate how it effortlessly blends ghosts, wallpaper people, heart crunching, paranormal machine guns and the smashing of innocent lawn gnomes. We dig this movie so much we listened to the Blu-ray commentary and scoured all the extras (hours and hours of extras) to make sure this episode is dense with The Frighteners facts and trivia that will blow your mind. If you are a fan of The Frighteners you will love this episode.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about Martha Coolidge's 1983 cult classic Valley Girl. This movie is better than it has any right to be and that is because of Coolidge's confident direction and a cast and crew who worked incredibly hard to make this $350,000 budgeted movie a success. We love Valley Girl because it was supposed to be a stock 1980's stock sex comedy, but was turned into a thoughtful and romantic movie featuring a career making performance from an 18-year old Nicolas Cage. If you are a fan of Valley Girl you will love this pod because we did a ton of research and did our best to honor this charming film.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're predicting the 2009 Academy Awards. Our annual trend of predicting decade-old awards continues on the podcast, and in this episode you will hear us talking about Slumdog Millionaire, The Wrestler, and famous actors crushing grapes. What we love about the 2009 Academy Awards is how it completely ignored The Dark Knight (aside from Ledger), and proceeded to nominated movies like The Reader for Best Picture. The 2009 awards marked a significant change in the Best Picture format, and we love how the Academy finally got around to nominating the superhero film Black Panther in 2019

You voted for it, and we delivered! The MFF podcast is back, and we're celebrating our 175th episode by talking about the 1992 cult classic Captain Ron. We've made it a new habit to talk about a Kurt Russell movie on every 25th episode (starting with Big Trouble in Little China on our 150th episode) and we had a great time talking about Ted's Island, chili dogs and the importance of enunciating when saying "guerrillas." In this podcast, we answered every listener question we received and dug through all the facts about Ron to figure out who exactly he is (We're still not sure who he really is). If you are a fan of Captain Ron you will love this podcast.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about Joel Schumacher's 1995 superhero movie Batman Forever. Batman Forever is a bonkers film that features lots of neon, overacting and insane action scenes involving incredibly long grappling hooks. We love how wild this movie is, and appreciate how Tommy Lee Jones, Jim Carrey, Val Kilmer and Nicole Kidman embraced the insanity and produced all-in performances that have left us with many questions and theories. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about pre-battle sandwiches, black light gangs and the security at Wayne Manor. If you are a fan of Batman Forever you will love this podcast.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 1992 cult classic Encino Man. We're big fans of this movie and embrace its earnest attempt to tell a story about a caveman helping two dorks become cool. In this episode, we talk about Steve Coozer, food groups, and Pauly Shore's brilliant engineering skills. We also come up with a bunch of weird theories and discuss the Pauly Shore cinematic universe (Encino Man, Son in Law, In the Army Now) which features random appearances of Brendan Fraser's Link character.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the excellent 2018 superhero flick Venom. We love this movie and appreciate how Tom Hardy dove into the role and managed to make a head eating glob of goo likable. In this podcast you will hear us talk about tater tots, symbiotes and the negatives of owning a car wash. If you are a fan of Venom you will love this podcast. Also, we put together the greatest superhero squad of all time.

The MFF podcast is back, and this week we're talking about the 2014 action-horror film The Guest. We love The Guest and think director Adam Wingard did a fine job blending elements from The Terminator and Halloween together and creating something new and exciting. The movie gets better with each viewing, and it's left us wanting more adventures featuring Dan Stevens and Maika Monroe battling each other while exchanging fun dialogue. In this podcast, you will hear us talk about tubes of death, jogging long distances and whether or not we liked working on film sets.
