Fight Club (1999)

"This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time." Welcome to Thursday, our new release day and we have a doosie for you.  Fight Club is one of those movies that defined the late 90s/early 00s. It was edgy, poetic, intense and the twist was one of the greatest in film history.  But 25 years later, we've all grown up and we're wondering if this movie is as good as we remember.  We dive REALLY deep into this one and you will love it. Enjoy.•0:00:00 - Introductions•0:03:00 - Memories of first viewing•0:08:45 - Pertinent movie details •0:13:45- Critical and fan reviews•0:27:00 - Scene by scene breakdown •2:11:00 - Modern day ratings——————————————————————SPONSORS-**Lawnbright- Go to http://getlawnbright.com and use code CONFUSED for 15% off your first order**Everyplate- Go to htp://everyplate.com/podcast and use code confused199 to get started.

BRUNCH: These Movies Are Ranked TOO HIGH on IMDB

It's no secret that we usually disagree with IMDB and think that a movie should be rated much higher than the rating on their website. But every once in awhile, we see a movie that is rated TOO HIGH. On today's brunch, we each give 5 movies that are a 7.0 or higher on IMDB and then tell you how much lower that rating should actually be in our opinion. These might sting- listener beware.

Blast From The Past (1999)

On today’s episode, we once again dive into a movie that was maybe not as well known as it should’ve been, but to those who have seen it, it is a revered classic.  This movie includes three Oscar winners and gives us one of our favorite reoccurring versions of Brendan Frazer- a fish out of water. What would it really be like to emerge into the world after 35 years in a bunker? Did Adam ever, ya know, do the thing we do when we are alone sometimes? Why was Eve such a bitch? Is Troy the best third wheel ever? Join us as we discuss 1999’s Blast From The past•0:00:00 - Introductions•0:02:45 - Memories of first viewing•0:08:00 - Pertinent movie details •0:11:00- Critical and fan reviews•0:21:00 - Scene by scene breakdown •1:43:00 - Modern day ratings——————————————————————SPONSORS-**Hungryroot- For a limited time get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free itemin every box for life.

My Cousin Vinny (1992)

Today's new episode is going to prove without a doubt that 'My Cousin Vinny' is still an enjoyable movie. The evidence in this episode is going to show that Marissa Tomei deserved her supporting actress award win and that Joe Pesci inspired a whole new generation of attorneys with his modern day take of a lawyer in a crusty, old, southern boomer world. You will hear the testimony’s of 3 passionate podcast hosts who most likely stole all their commentary and thoughts from other movie podcasts. As a listener, your verdict of this movie is gonna depend on what you think of the sworn testimony. Not what we think. What we think don't count. You're the jury. It's your job to decide what your modern day take is. We're gonna be asking you to return a verdict of not only a good modern day rating for this movie but we are also going to be asking your for a 5-star rating on Spotify and Apple Podcasts when you are done listening. The prosecution rests….•0:00:00 - Introductions•0:02:45 - Memories of first viewing•0:07:15 - Pertinent movie details •0:11:00- Critical and fan reviews•0:22 :00 - Scene by scene breakdown •1:46:00 - Modern day ratings——————————————————————SPONSOR:**VENICE.AI- Get 20% off a Pro Plan by using our link: http://venice.ai/breakfast and the code “BREAKFAST.**Support us at http://patreon.com/confusedbreakfast for bonus weekly episodes, voting on upcoming movies, giving your modern-day ratings on our movies and much more.**Mail us something  The Confused BreakfastPO Box 10016Cedar Rapids, IA52402-9802Special thanks to our executive producers- Josh Miller, Starling, Michael Guiliano and NicMad.Welcome to our newest members - Danny Laudati, Samantha Scott, Joe Allen, PO Muff, Charles W Forsythe, Allen Cline, Blake Zink.
