This week is another episode from our trip to the woods, Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie. This movie, and the series off which is was based, has a lot of memories for a couple of us, so this episode not only talks about the movie, but what it means to us, and how it shaped much of our humor.
Enjoy!
This week we are talking about two film that help close out the summer of 24, Trap and Alien: Romulus. Many people will say that the best days of M. Night Shyamalan and the Aliens franchise are long in the past, but maybe, just maybe, these two movies can prove those people wrong. Or maybe they are both trash, and we should just live in the past, at least as far as movies go.
Enjoy!
Look…this movie is insanely popular, and will end up making more money than most of the movies in the MCU. That said, we have some differing opinions on Deadpool & Wolverine. We all went into this movie with varying degrees of excitement, and there were most certainly some concerns with how delicately they would address Logan, but we at least all agree it was better than Deadpool 2. So that’s something.
Enjoy!
This week we are talking about the low budget, deconstructed, slasher flick, In a Violent Nature. Our opinions are not perfectly aligned, but we can all agree on one thing…this movie has one of the most creative kills on 2024. So if you like horror, you should check it out, but if you want to stare, mouth agape, at one of the most excessively violent scenes of late, then you should also check out this movie. Either way, you should listen to our episode.
Enjoy!
Sometimes the conversations are the most entertaining for us when instead of completely disagreeing about movies, we just disagree about what random moment of the movie. This week seems to be that kind of episode, when we can’t help but get lost in the weeds as we discuss Abigail and The Fall Guy.
Enjoy!
It is hard to believe that we have been doing this show in some form or another for almost 14 years. I know that there are a lot of podcasts out there, and I know that it is hard to carve out a little piece of the internet for this show to find an audience. I am more grateful than you know for all the people that listen, but also happy that this show exists as a place for me to get to stop what I am doing and just talk about movies with some of my favorite people. Even if know one ever listens to another episode, I will still go back and listen, because these guys genuinely make me laugh.
To celebrate 400 of these, we are doing one of our favorite type of show, a rewind to 1989. So sit back and enjoy some friendly bickering, as we go full nostalgia.
Enjoy!
This we are discussing the films of John Carney. Mostly his latest outing, Flora & Son, but also our quick ranking of his other offerings. Historically, Carney’s films have been well loved on COTR, so you’ll just have to listen to hear if this film is another feather in his cap, or just another straight to streaming movie.
Enjoy!
What a treat, this week you get an episode on three movies! We are hoping that since you get three movies, you won’t notice that the better half of the show hosts aren’t on this one. So here’s a little horror/comedy, a little science fiction, and a little video game underdog sports story. Surely there isn’t something for most people in here.
Enjoy!
And here is the second part to our Buffy Season 2 episode. This half of the season is much stronger than the first, and so is our episode.
Enjoy!
The movie industry is a great state of change. Superhero movies are failing left and right, while Barbie and Mario and laughing all the way to the bank. Disney/Pixar movies are being released to tepid reviews, while other studios push animation in exciting directions, first with Across the Spiderverse, and now with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. So sit back as we kind of talk about turtles, while also talking about Oppenheimer again and more Zelda talk.
Enjoy!
Ezra Miller is a garbage person. We won’t everyone to know that even if The Flash was a good movie, it would still be kind of awful because of how terrible Miller has been IRL. That said, The Flash didn’t really impress anyone here at COtR, with the range being somewhere between “meh” and “the worst comic book movie ever”. Definitely an entertaining episode.
Enjoy!
This episode is a few years old, but with a new Spider-Verse movie out there, we thought this would be a good time to revisit this classic episode.
Enjoy!
This week we are talking about the the animated masterpiece, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. There is no reason us to play coy, we all loved this movie, and we spend most of the episode just talking about the parts that we loved. It is every bit as wonderful as we hoped it would be.
Enjoy!
Roy was right, the names in this franchise are out of control, and someone really needs to step in a do something. That said, this week we are talking about Fast X, the tenth film in this massive “street racing” franchise (eleventh if you count Hobbs & Shaw). Is it a perfect movie? No. Is it a good movie? …Maybe? We aren’t really sure, but we were happy to spend an hour trying to figure it out.
Enjoy!
Before we post our episode on Fast X, please enjoy this long episode we recorded for Patreon on the rest of this franchise. The highs are so high, the lows…well they’re still pretty entertaining.
Enjoy!
The time may finally be upon us where we are just getting a little too exhausted by all the comic book movies. Is it that it is all too much, or has the quality of the content just been getting worse and worse. Could be a little but of column A and a bit of column B. Still, that doesn’t mean we aren’t going to watch what comes out and record about it for you, our dear dear friends.
Enjoy!
This is the last of our episodes from the “Cabin Chronicles II”, and it watching The Final Girls was one of the high points of the weekend. A tongue-in-cheek send up of slasher movies that avoids many of the cynical pitfalls that a lot of parody movies fall into. An excellent movie to watch with a group of friends.
Enjoy!
What to can I say about RRR? At one point a character attacks another character by throwing a leopard at him, and that doesn’t even crack the “Top 10” as far as crazy moments in this film.
Enjoy!
This week is a very special episode with a very special guest. A huge thanks to Ryan L. Terry for immediately elevating the quality of our show. Truth be told, he is definitely too smart to be clowning around with us, but we appreciate him bringing his mad knowledge and love of the slasher genre as we discuss Scream 6. There isn’t a good way to write the title out the way the marketing team wanted, where we turn the “M” into a “VI”. Even trying to explain seems silly, but the this episode is top shelf.
Enjoy!
In honor of the monumental win for Everything Everywhere All at Once at this year’s Academy Awards, we are just replaying our episode that we recorded earlier in the year. There aren’t many times when the movie we loved the most gets all the attention we think it deserved, but this was one of those times.
Congratulations to EEAAO!!!!
Enjoy!
