Thursday Aug 30, 2018
Thursday Aug 30, 2018
Hey kids and welcome to our podcast about them moving pictures called movies! If you are a kid you probably should stop reading this now, this movie might have puppets in it but it is not for you! Today Mysterious Mike and Awesome Matt review Jenny McCarthy’s cousin (no seriously they are cousins!!), Melissa McCarthy’s, latest film The Happytime Murders! The guys do get off topic a bit on this one discussing Tesla’s, the Matrix, Elon Musk, and most importantly the Reel Film Nerd’s 50th Episode!
Mike loved the murder mystery set in a world where humans and puppets co-exist. There were a few scenes he loved more than others but genuinely enjoyed this film. He gives The Happytime Murders 3 out of 5 Reels. The Awesome Matt did not like this movie as much as Mike in fact he did not like it at all well there were a few really funny scenes. Maybe the trailer ruined it for him. Matt gives The Happytime Murders 2 our 5 Reels.

Episode #42: Mile 22
Tuesday Aug 28, 2018
Tuesday Aug 28, 2018
Hi everybody! Today your hosts review Marky Mark’s latest action thriller Mile 22. It is a solid action film with a bad and over used storyline. The biggest shining light is Iko Uwais’ martial arts stunts. It is very reminiscent of the older martial arts films and is just a joy to watch. The guys pretty much stay on topic except Mike does bring up Moviepass and surprise, Matt actually used it to see Mile 22! YEAH!!! Using a service, he has paid for is a great thing.
For the most part Mysterious Mike enjoyed the film. The story was not great, but he loved the action sequences and his boy Mark Wahlberg. He gives Mile 22 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt was not a fan of this film. He did enjoy the acting especially by his sweetheart Lauren Cohan (what is wrong with this guy does he love every girl he sees on the big screen, man he needs a girlfriend!) and thought Iko Uwais was amazing! He was disappointed that John Malkovich did not have a bigger role and spent the entire movie talking into a microphone. He gives it 2 out of 5 Reels.

Episode #41: Legacy – Clerks
Thursday Aug 23, 2018
Thursday Aug 23, 2018
So Mike slacked off this week and did not do his homework so we will not be reviewing Mile 22, yet. He only made it to BlacKkKlansman. Matt did his homework so for once it is not his fault! Instead we bring you an incredible Legacy cast indie film that launched Kevin Smith’s career into the stratosphere, Clerks. As you already know if you are still listening to our podcast after 40 episodes we get off topic a lot. Here is the short list of things we talk about today. Russell Crowe’s codpiece from Cinderella Man, Mike’s high school nickname, the acceptance of nerd culture, Blockbuster, Sprouts grocery stores (seriously), Star Wars, of course, and lastly the Reel Film Nerds upcoming October horror movie fest! Sit back relax crack open your favorite brew and enjoy the show unless you are at work then just get back to work you slacker!
Matt loves Clerks a ton. It has incredible writing and dialogue with solid cinematography but really rough acting. Hey it is an indie and Kevin Smith basically used all of his friends and family as actors. They did a bang up job though. He gives Clerks 4.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike loves Clerks as well but not as much as Matt. Maybe it is the high school nickname he earned related to this film or maybe he is just harsh. Mike gives Clerks a respectable 4 out of 5 Reels.
Stay tuned for next week’s episodes when we review Mark Wahlberg’s latest action flick Mile 22 (maybe?) and the raunchy yet hilarious puppet caper The Happy Time Murders starring Melissa McCarthy. Thanks for listening and chat at you Tuesday!

Episode #40: BlacKkKlansman
Tuesday Aug 21, 2018
Tuesday Aug 21, 2018
Welcome listeners new and old to the Reel Film Nerds Podcast! Today your hosts Matt Hinshaw and Mysterious Mike get political while reviewing Spike Lee’s latest joint BlacKkKlansman. They really tried to keep politics out but it is very difficult with a film like this. Was Mike able to keep the Marvel Cinematic Universe tie-ins going? Heck ya he was, this makes 32 movies Mike has tied to the MCU. If you are wondering why it is only 32 out of 40 well Mike did not join the show until Episode #4: Black Panther, we have reviewed 3 MCU films, and lastly Mike did not appear on two episodes (Episode #9 and Episode #12). I know more information then you care to know but it is pretty cool that we are proving our theory.
Mike and Matt both enjoyed this film and recommend you see it if it’s available near you. It is not a must for a movie theater, but it is worth your time if it is. Adam Driver and John David Washington were excellent along with the fascinating true story. The guys thought there were some political scenes and writing Spike Lee added to the film that were not needed. This film is already impactful enough in today’s climate without them. Mike gives BlacKkKlansman a respectable 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt thought it earned higher marks then that even though there were parts of the film he did not think were necessary. He gives BlacKkKlansman a 4 out of 5 Reels.
Thank you for liking, subscribing, rating, reviewing, and telling your friends about our podcast. The guys will be back with Episode #41 on Thursday for another Legacy cast, the infamous film that launched the career of Kevin Smith, Clerks. Chat at you then.

Episode #39: Tributary - Mute
Thursday Aug 16, 2018
Thursday Aug 16, 2018
Welcome back to the unofficial Chipotle podcast! Today your two hosts bust out with their second Tributary cast the Netflix original movie Mute. This futuristic dystopian Sci-Fi thriller is very reminiscent of Blade Runner in scope and feel; it is not Blade Runner though. The guys try something new trying to talk about the film without spoiling it for the first half of the pod and let loose and spoil everything for the second half. We warn you many times so if you don’t want to hear it you can stop accordingly. Do you like the new format? Mike again brings up MoviePass and its impending demise. The guys request some hate mail and hate comments but doubt they will get any. Go ahead send us some especially to Mysterious Mike and Mike@ReelFilmNerds.com. Lastly RFN can now be found on Spotify!! There is no excuse not to subscribe!
Mute was a confusing badly written but beautifully filmed movie that you can probably skip unless you really need something to watch or you love Paul Rudd. Mike gives it 2 out of 5 Reels. Matt as always is more generous why, who knows maybe he is drunk again, he gives Mute 3 out of 5 Reels. Thanks for listening and chat at you on Tuesday!

Episode #38: The Meg
Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
Welcome back fellow film nerds! Today Matt and Mike review a giant piece of crap that they do not understand why it is doing so well at the box office, The Meg. Things get off the rails fast! The guys start talking about baby names, online gaming in the early 90’s, and of course MoviePass. Mike mostly wanted to see if Matt had finally cancelled his subscription, nope! Back on topic, did The Meg get such amazing box office numbers over opening weekend because it was rated PG-13 instead of R and why the hell is Ruby Rose’s hair constantly wet in this movie for no reason? The guys finish the review by getting serious a bit about animals and their senseless killing such as sharks to make only shark fin soup. They do not go too in depth but the boys do voice their thoughts on the subject.
The Meg was bad, really really bad, and the guys agree you should not waste your money on it. Matt was too kind like always and gave it 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike handed out the lowest rating in Reel Film Nerds history with a 1 out of 5 Reels. Seriously don’t see this movie but do listen to the podcast. It is a good one even with all the off topic nonsense! Make sure check back on Thursday for the guys second Tributary cast for the Netflix Original Movie starring Paul Rudd, Mute.

Episode #37: Legacy – Universal Soldier
Thursday Aug 09, 2018
Thursday Aug 09, 2018
Hello boys and girls and welcome to another Legacy cast! Today your hosts Mysterious Mike and Matt Hinshaw talk about a beloved childhood action film Universal Soldier. The guys loved this movie a ton when they were kids, today in their 30’s not so much. They also discuss the many northern Arizona locations it was filmed at and why the many more recent films based in AZ are not filmed there but in New Mexico. Matt gets lost in the internet while researching an aircraft featured in the film called the Super Guppy. Lesson learned don’t pod and internet! There is lots of fun Universal Soldier trivia discussed by both hosts and even the discovery of multiple sequels neither of them knew existed. This is a Legacy Cast for the ages!
Matt and Mike both were disappointed re-watching this film. It does not stand the test of time. The acting is very bad and the movie comes across as flat out cheesy. The guys both give Universal Soldier 2 Reels out of 5. Next week the guys will be reviewing the summer blockbuster shark movie The Meg and their second Tributary Cast the Netflix Original movie Mute. Chat with you next week!

Episode #36: The Spy Who Dumped Me
Tuesday Aug 07, 2018
Tuesday Aug 07, 2018
Welcome film buffs to another incredible amazing stupendous episode of the Reel Film Nerds Podcast! I spy with my little eye our latest review, The Spy Who Dumped Me. A great action filled comedic buddy film! Matt and Mike were surprised at how much they liked this film. Mike does it again and throws gasoline on the MoviePass fire really getting Matt going since he had to pay to see this movie. The guys then touch a bit on the recent firing of James Gunn by Disney over really old tweets and they agree that it is a bad move. Of course this opens the door for Matt to talk about Star Wars specifically can’t Solo: A Star Wars Story and its flop. They continue off topic for a bit discussing Ron Howard and how many amazing movies he has directed.
The Spy Who Dumped Me is a really fun slap sticky comedy that is definitely worth a watch. Mila Kunis did a fantastic job and Matt would not mind her becoming one of his future ex-wives. Kate McKinnon rained her acting in a bit and really delivered a superb performance. Matt gives The Spy Who Dumped Me 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike enjoyed the film even more then Matt if you can believe it! He rarely best’s Matt’s rating but he did! He gives it a 4 out of 5 Reels! This buddy movie was fun and a little raunchy which was fine with us.

Episode #35: Tributary - Anon
Thursday Aug 02, 2018
Thursday Aug 02, 2018
Welcome listeners new and old (not physically) to our first Tributary cast! A Tributary cast is a review of a movie only available on a streaming service such as Netflix, HBO Go, Amazon Prime, etc. This week Matt and Mike review a Netflix original Sci-Fi thriller Anon. It is a fun trippy technology filled look into a dystopian future where privacy flat out doesn’t exist. The guys dive deep on this topic, they both love tech but also see the coming storm and the end of privacy or what little we have left. They also discuss augmented reality versus virtual reality and how close they are to becoming everyday tech. Mike gets Matt going again about the death of MoviePass especially with their developments, price changes, and lack of blockbuster films new releases. Things continue off topic for a bit with chat about TCL televisions, Roku vs Apple TV vs Fire Stick, and what is the best device to stream movies on. Last but not least they guys discuss their new partnership with Prescott Valley based news organization SignalsAZ.com and how you can where you can find our podcast on their site.
Anon is a must-see thriller if you are into detective movies and technology. Clive Owen and Amanda Seyfried do a fantastic job. The sets are dark and gritty and the graphic overlays are just amazing! Matt loved this movie he gives it 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike enjoyed the film as well but like always he is more critical then Matt. He gives Anon 3.5 out of 5 Reels.

Your mission if you choose to accept it is to listen to this podcast then rate and review the Reel Film Nerds on iTunes! Anything to get a response out of our listeners, right?

The guys get off topic as they always do and discuss the continued slide of MoviePass with a dash of John Travolta and his airplane collection. Did Henry Cavill really have to have a mustache for this film and ruin a part of Justice League because of it, or does he just have a hard time growing facial hair? Lastly they get into their personal blu-ray collections and what they have bought in the bargain bins lately such as Big Trouble in Little China a classic and probably upcoming Legacy Cast!
Mike and Matt agree that Mission: Impossible – Fallout is a great popcorn action movie. It is a must see in a theater and worth your hard-earned money. If you can believe it the guys agreed on a rating again! They both give Mission: Impossible – Fallout 3.5 out of 5 Reels.

Episode #33: Legacy – Jaws
Thursday Jul 26, 2018
Thursday Jul 26, 2018
Welcome to a very special Legacy Cast! Today Matt and Mike talk about Jaws in honor of the Discovery Channel’s 30th annual Shark Week!! Jaws is one of Mike’s favorite movies of all time, but he is bias due to his love of sharks. Matt lets Mike take the lead on this episode but asks him a lot of fun interesting questions. The boys also discuss the differences between a horror movie and a thriller at least in their eyes. There is lots of fun trivia discussed including the name of the Jaws prop shark and its relation to Finding Nemo. Lastly was Mike able to keep the Marvel Cinematic Universe streak alive even with a movie made in 1975?
I am not sure we even need to tell you our ratings for Jaws, but we are going to anyways. Mike loves Jaws without a question. It is probably his second most watch film. He hands out his second perfect score with a 5 out of 5 Reels. Matt also loves Jaws a lot, but he can’t get over how the shark looks. Clearly, he has been spoiled with the recent developments in digital and practical effects. Matt still loves the film and gives it a very respectable 4.5 out of 5 Reels. Basically, if you have not seen Jaws you need to go watch it, NOW!

Episode #32: The Equalizer 2
Tuesday Jul 24, 2018
Tuesday Jul 24, 2018
Are you ready to get equalized? Yes, then we have a treat for you today with our review of The Equalizer 2! Matt gets off topic by talking about Denzel Washington and his Prescott connection. That turns into a talk about guns then they both go full off topic and profess their love for Denzel Washington. Who doesn’t love him right? He has made some amazing movies! Basically, your hosts spent half the podcast talking about Denzel and their favorite movies of his. What I am trying to say here is if you don’t like Denzel Washington just skip this podcast.
Finally we get a movie that is not absolute crap! It feels like a month of just bad movies for us. Matt and Mike really liked The Equalizer 2. It is a fun sequel that is a great standalone film too. The ending is not great and the pacing of the film is awkward but for the most par this is really a great movie! Mike gives The Equalizer 2 a respectable 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt is nowhere near as harsh as Mike is when it comes to ratings especially for his boy Denzel. He gave the film 4 out of 5 Reels.
Thank you for subscribing and listening to our podcast! Don’t forget to check out this Thursday’s Legacy Cast in honor of the 30th annual Shark Week with our review of the original summer blockbuster Jaws!!!

Episode #31: Skyscraper
Thursday Jul 19, 2018
Thursday Jul 19, 2018
WOW, 31 episodes and we are still going? Why? This week Mike and Matt discuss another bad movie you should not go see, Skyscraper staring The Rock “Dwayne” Johnson. The boys talk about their love of Die Hard and why it is a Christmas movie no matter what Bruce Willis says! They also discuss how Skyscraper blatantly ripped it off without question. Was Mike able to keep his Marvel Cinematic Universe streak alive, of course! There is also even more talk about the unlimited movie services such as MoviePass, AMC A-List, and Cinemark Movie Club. There is no rant on this one just a regular review of a bad movie.
Matt and Mike both found this movie to be nothing special. It was boring, a giant copy of great movies, a bad story, (seeing a pattern here?) just to name a few of its issues. Mike gives Skyscraper a 2 out of 5 Reels. Matt rated it a little bit higher (purely based on seeing hottie Neve Campbell on the big screen again) with a 2.5 out of 5 Reels.
Thank you for subscribing and listening to our podcast! We will talk at you next Tuesday with our review of The Equalizer 2. Don’t forget we will be doing a special Legacy Cast a week from today in honor of the 30th annual Shark Week by Discovery Channel with the original summer blockbuster Jaws!!!

Episode #30: The First Purge
Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
Welcome to our 30th episode and review of The First Purge. Matt and Mike get into it a bit especially how political they saw the film. Acting was great but the story just flat out is another Purge movie. The writer really dropped the ball on what could have been a great and interesting start to the annual Purge but nope.
Here is your warning people this is a long pod a bit over an hour, if you just tuned in to hear our review of The First Purge stop listening around the 40 minute mark. Matt really goes off on a rant and Mike joins in for a bit. He does give you lots of fair warning though. Topics start to include drones, MoviePass’s new peak pricing, and the gents first R rated movie to name a few. Matt focuses though and begins his rant on bad movie goers and really bad parenting then explains why he will never breed or get married. Who knows maybe you will get a kick out of it so listen anyways.
Mike and Matt both were disappointed with The First Purge and do not recommend you to go see it unless Purge movies are your thing. Mike loves the idea of the Purge and has enjoyed the films in the past but this one was just not up to snuff, he rated it 2.5 Reels out of 5. Matt likes the Purge films but is not a huge fan of them he just really wanted a great story and this movie did not deliver, he rates The First Purge 2 Reels out of 5. Thank you again for your continued support and we will chat at you this Thursday with our review of Skyscraper!

Episode #29: Won't You Be My Neighbor?
Thursday Jul 12, 2018
Thursday Jul 12, 2018
Welcome everyone to the Reel Film Nerds podcast! Today’s review is a special one for both your hosts, Won't You Be My Neighbor? Matt and Mike grew up glued to their television sets watching Mister Rogers and his many lessons. They have been talking about wanting to see this biopic since it came out back in January 2018 and now they have a chance. As difficult as it was Mike was able to tie Won't You Be My Neighbor? to the Marvel Cinematic Universe you will have to listen to find out how.
Mike and Matt both loved this film without question. Matt has a hard time understanding why it is life changing and extremely popular right now. It is a very good film about an amazing man who touched the lives of millions. Mike learned a lot about Mister Rogers and some of the controversies surrounding him that neither of the hosts knew about. Matt really tried as hard as he could not to find a problem with this film, but he did anyways. He really wishes they would have discussed Fred Rogers’ home life more then they did. At the end of the show he tries to explain the Navy SEALS rumor and does a terrible job at it probably offending lots of people. Only time will tell.
I guess it is not a rare occasion anymore since this is now 2 pods in a row but your hosts agreed on the rating. Mike and Matt both give Won't You Be My Neighbor? 4 out of 5 Reels. It is an incredible biography that is a must watch, you just don’t have to see it in the theater. Won't You Be My Neighbor? will probably be on PBS or Netflix by the end of the year try to catch it then.
We apologize for some of the audio issues in this episode. Matt tried to clean up Mike’s audio the best he could but there is still a lot of background noise. Thank you for subscribing and listening to our podcast! We will talk at you next Tuesday with our review of The First Purge.

Episode #28: Ant-Man and the Wasp
Tuesday Jul 10, 2018
Tuesday Jul 10, 2018
Welcome everyone to a new episode of the Reel Film Nerds that you aren’t going to listen to! Today your hosts are talking about the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe film Ant-Man and the Wasp! Mike and Matt don’t really get off topic much on this review. Is this the start of them becoming serious reviewers? Doubtful! No MCU tie-in for this episode either since Ant-Man and the Wasp is in the MCU!
Matt and Mike both really enjoyed Ant-Man and Wasp. Matt like always has a few nitpicky things he talks about but for the most part really enjoyed it especially the comedic aspects. Mike really liked the film as well but did not think it did anything above and beyond your typical MCU flick. They both enjoyed the original Ant-Man more than this sequel. Guess what we have one of those rare occasions where your hosts actually agreed on a rating! Mike and Matt both give Ant-Man and the Wasp 3.5 out of 5 Reels. It is a fun hilarious family action film that is worth a watch in the theaters. Thank you for subscribing and listening to our podcast! We will talk at you Thursday with our review of Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

Episode #27: Legacy - Spaceballs
Thursday Jul 05, 2018
Thursday Jul 05, 2018
Welcome moviephiles to new episode of the Reel Film Nerds! Today we have an amazing Legacy Cast for you, Spaceballs!! This movie was requested by Matt’s buddy and co-worker Derek Nanke, thanks Derek for the request! Right off the bat things start to get crazy in this pod! Matt talks about his dad taking him to see Spaceballs in the theater as a kid. He also talks about Star Wars probably too much but how you can not right Spaceballs is 95% of a rip on Star Wars! Mike explains where his obsession with male genitalia came from and how much fun he had watching this movie. Matt typically watches it at least once a year but Mike has not seen Spaceballs in a very long time! Sit back relax and grab a big glass of water to help with your 4th of July hangover because this is a long pod, almost a full hour!
Clearly Matt and Mike both love this movie without question. Mike loved it a teensy bit more than Matt probably because he has not seen Spaceballs as an adult! Mike hands out the very first perfect rating in the history of the Reel Film Nerds with a 5 out of 5 Reels!!! Matt loves Spaceballs without question but he does not think it is perfect, damn close but not perfect. He gives Spaceballs a 4.5 out of 5 Reels. Thank you for subscribing and listening to our podcast! We will talk at you next Tuesday with another Reel Film Nerds movie review!

Episode #26: Sicario: Day of the Soldado
Tuesday Jul 03, 2018
Tuesday Jul 03, 2018
Welcome friends to the latest Reel Film Nerds podcast! This week Matt and Mike talk about Sicario: Day of the Soldado. They start out with some fun and interesting updates related to the podcast before getting into the review. We were reviewed by Dave Jackson from the School of Podcasting. You can read his notes and listen to his podcast on us at Podcast Rodeo Show. Do you agree with Dave’s assessment? Let us know what you think especially if there is something you think we need to improve or that we are doing right.
Matt continues being off topic talking about how you can now listen to our podcast on your Amazon Echo using the Alexa Any Pod skill. Once the skill is installed all you have to say is "Alexa, open AnyPod." After the greeting, say "Play Reel Film Nerds" and your Echo will play the latest episode of the Reel Film Nerds! Pretty awesome right?
Mike and Matt both love the original Sicario and agree that it did not need a sequel but we got one anyways. Mike really did not like this movie no matter how much fun Matt has saying Soldado over and over. Matt thought it was passable until the third act of the film. It just gets weird and starts to fall apart. The acting was great, the sets were ok, the cinematography is decent, but the story was just really bad. Mike gives Sicario: Day of the Soldado a 2 out of 5 Reels and suggests no one go see it in the theaters unless you have Movie Pass. Matt enjoyed the film more than Mike until the end and it ruined the entire movie for him. He gives it a 3.5 out of 5 Reels and strongly suggests if you do want to see it to watch the original first.

Episode #25: Tag
Thursday Jun 28, 2018
Thursday Jun 28, 2018
Welcome back faithful listeners. Tag you’re it! In Episode 25 Matt and Mike discuss Tag a fun and entertaining summer comedy. Matt brings up how this movie reminded him of his childhood friends including Mysterious Mike. Mostly he misses the camaraderie especially being a lonely old man in his late 30’s. Mike talks about a prank that goes maybe a little too far in the film and discusses his upcoming nuptials. Also find out how one lucky cast member breaks both his arms in a stunt gone wrong and what they did to remedy the problem. Mike and Matt both enjoy this movie it is leaps and bounds better than its piss poor trailer. The guys finish the podcast talking about the possible end of movie theaters thanks to digital downloads.
Mike and Matt both enjoyed Tag Matt just enjoyed it a lot more, he loves comedies. Mike gave it 3 Reels out of 5 and thinks it is not a must watch film but might make a good rental or streaming watch. Matt liked Tag a lot. He gave it just a tad higher rating with 4 out of 5 Reels and thinks it’s a nice change from the typical summer popcorn flick. Thank you for listening and next week we are reviewing Sicario: Day of the Soldado and doing a really fun Legacy Cast of Spaceballs!!

Episode #24: Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Tuesday Jun 26, 2018
Tuesday Jun 26, 2018
Wow do we have an amazing episode for you. The movie we reviewed was crap but Matt and Mike still put out some great pod! This week the boys review Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Spoiler alert it sucked and not because Starlord selfishly started to wail on Thanos…… ok better stop before I spoil too much. Topics this week also include cheese, the Beatles, collecting vinyl records from family members who think they are dying, and an important one AMC’s new Moviepass like service and how Moviepass again is screwing over their customers. Sit back relax grab your favorite alcoholic laced beverage (believe me it helps while listening) and enjoy a longish episode of the Reel Film Nerds!
Mike and Matt both thought Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom overpromised and under produced. Both of them being big Jurassic Park fans especially Mike they were let down mostly on the story. The CGI was great and dinosaurs eating people is always fun especially when you are having a bad day but it just wasn’t enough to merit a good rating. We have the rare agreed rating of 2.5 Reels out of 5 Reels for both of our hosts. Thank you again for your continued support and we will chat at you this Thursday with our review of Tag!

Episode #23: Hereditary
Thursday Jun 21, 2018
Thursday Jun 21, 2018
Welcome everyone to your second episode of the week! In this show Matt and Mike discuss A24 studios latest modern horror flick Hereditary. Matt discusses his angst for the horror genre, he does not hate it, but he does not seek out that genre of film either. Mike talks about why he loves Hereditary and some other great newer horror movies. For once we do not have too many spoilers because it would take away from the movie’s feel and scariness. Matt brings up his love for Sci-Fi and a new show on AMC, James Cameron’s Story of Science Fiction that he thinks any Sci-Fi fan should watch now! Mike ends the podcast on a high note by bringing up his obsession with male genitalia in movies and boy there is lots in this movie!
Both our hosts thought Hereditary was well done with great acting, good cinematography, and amazing sets. Mike gives Hereditary a 4 out of 5 Reels. Matt enjoyed it but still horror is not one of his favorite forms of cinema, so I am sure that factored in for his rating. He gave it a 3 out of 5 Reels. Thanks for listening and we will chat at you next Tuesday!

Tuesday Jun 19, 2018
Hi everyone! Welcome to episode 22! Yep that’s right 22!!! WOW! Matt and Mike discuss Pixar and Disney’s latest animated flick Incredibles 2. They also dive deep into the villain’s name and the connotations the writer is implying with it. Matt actually loves a baby in this movie! I know right the man who swears he will never breed or date again and his favorite character of the film is Jack Jack, it’s a crazy world people! Mike talks about the lack of smart adult hidden jokes versus other Pixar films in Incredibles 2. He then expresses his love for Finding Nemo for obvious reasons. Spoiler alert Mike is always trying to be a fish on the weekends when he is not working.
Mike and Matt both found this movie to be mediocre. The story is ok but not great, the art style is very good as always, and #JackJack4Life as Matt proclaims. Mike gives Incredibles 2 a 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt echoes his rating with a 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Thanks for listening and we will chat at you on Thursday!

Check it out everyone it’s another Legacy Cast!! For those of you keeping score at home this is our second one. Mr. Mile High Show is nowhere to be found for this episode so Matt and Mike actually talked about the movie instead of photography.

Mike comes up with a fun drinking game to play with friends while watching this film and his Marvel Cinematic Universe streak continues! Matt like always talks way too much and gets off topic way too much. Sit back relax and grab a pint at the ol’ Winchester and enjoy our review of Shaun of the Dead!
Mike and Matt both really love this movie. It is a groundbreaking must see genre bending film. Believe it or not but they actually gave the same rating for Shaun of the Dead wow! It gets 4.5 out of 5 Reels from both our hosts!
