    Apr 21 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are mourning the loss of the best of us. We watched the 2018 film from Sam Liu and Jake Castorena, The Death of Superman.

    Put on your dreariest dark clothes and cue Taps because the world just lost one of its greatest heroes. We’re sorry to inform you that… Superman is no more.

    We’re all just going about our collective days, never even thinking that some grotesque monster from the stars is going to come and devastate the planet. Who could ever plan for something like that?

    Join us in shedding a tear and pouring one out for ol’ Supes. He was truly a phenomenal being that we were lucky to have. And, as always, a big double middle finger to Doomsday. That asshole…

  • Green Lantern: Emerald Knights: Beware My Power… Green Lantern’s Light
    Apr 14 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are learning about what it takes to become a promising member of the Corps. We watched the 2011 film from Christopher Berkeley, Jay Oliva, and Lauren Montgomery, Green Lantern: Emerald Knights.

    In brightest day, in blackest night…

    No DC animated movie shall escape our sight.

    Let those who worship the subpar live-action DC movies beware our power…

    More Movies Please’s light!

  • Justice League: Doom: Batman Doesn’t F Around
    Apr 7 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are teaming up to prevent an immortal madman from killing loads of innocent people. We watched the 2012 film from Lauren Montgomery, Justice League: Doom.

    This film presents one of the great moral questions of our time: is Batman right to keep secret tabs on all the other superpowered heroes in the Justice League? Or is he a jackass for even trying?

    No one would blame him for doing that with the scores of baddies they all face. That’s just good hero-ing. But with Superman? Wonder Woman? This is the sort of question that’s liable to keep a person up at night (and should be taught in philosophy classes).

    Listen on to hear how we feel. Also there’s a lot of marveling (no pun intended) about this excellent film. Enjoy!

  • Chopping Mall: Thank You. Have a Nice Day.
    Mar 31 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are on the run from rampaging killbots who are trying to ruin everyone’s good times. We watched the 1986 film from Jim Wynorski, Chopping Mall.

    Let’s run down our schlocky ‘80s movie checklist. Does this film have:

    • A ridiculous story that won’t hold up under any scrutiny? Check.
    • Casual racism that’s hardly ever addressed? Check.
    • An almost obscene amount of gory violence? Check.
    • Gratuitous boob shots? You’d better believe that’s a check.


    Sounds like this is a perfect addition to our collection of B-movies. Listen on to find out if we rank this one brilliant, a flunder, or the dreaded blunder.

  • Robocop: Dead or Alive, You’re Coming With Me
    Mar 24 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are locked, loaded, and ready to take down some crime. We watched the 1987 film from Paul Verhoeven, RoboCop.

    On the one hand, Officer Alex Murphy got literally shot to pieces by a bunch of murderous thugs. On the other hand, he ended up becoming an unstoppable justice machine.

    Most people would say that’s a terrible trade-off, but who among us hasn’t dreamt of being invulnerable and badass? Who hasn’t wanted to be draped in chrome?

    I posit that becoming RoboCop wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. Get rid of the memory suppression and he’s pretty much a superhero. That isn’t too bad.

  • The Terminator: I’ll Be Back
    Mar 17 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are trying to protect the future savior of humanity. We watched the 1984 film from James Cameron, The Terminator.

    If you want to live, you should probably come with me… No, that’s not a threat or anything. I’m just saying that there could be a murderous future robot coming after you. So come on!

    Because if there’s one thing I know about robots from the future, there’s at least a 50/50 chance that it’ll be the evil kind of robot. It’s not going to want to be your friend. It’s going to try tearing you apart.

    If you’re still doubting me, then give this episode a listen. It’ll tell you all you need to know about what could be coming. And, you know, I’ll be back…

  • *batteries not included: Some Assembly Required
    Mar 10 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are fighting the man from taking our home… with a little help from our (robo) friends. We watched the 1987 film from Matthew Robbins, *batteries not included.

    Sometimes the “little green men” from outer space aren’t so green or scary. Sometimes they’re little UFOs. Sometimes they’re our friends. And sometimes they have little UFO babies.

    Not all alien stories need to be creepy or scary. They don’t have to be murderous Xenomorphs or terrifying tripods from Mars. They can be our little buddies.

    The next time you hear something go bump in the night, let’s assume that we’ll find new friends who will fix all of our problems. That’s what I want us to learn from this delightful film.

  • Short Circuit: I’m Johnny 5. I’m Alive!
    Mar 3 2025

    Send us a text

    On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are venturing into the wild robotic world of the 1980s. We watched the 1986 film from John Badham and its 1988 sequel from Kenneth Johnson, Short Circuit and Short Circuit 2.

    In a possible future filled with Terminators, RoboCops, and M3GANs, we implore you to find the robo-humanity inside your processing units and be more like Johnny 5.

    He represents all that we should strive to be: curious, forgiving, and friendly. He’s a companion to all who deserve him. He’s the hero we need in these dark times.

    We’re kicking off a whole month of ‘80s robot movies, so buckle in and get ready for some delightfully cheesy, yet still charming, cinema experiences.
