Worst of 2024

It’s March, the Oscars have come and gone, and people are already discussing what could be the best movie of 2025. We, on the other hand, are just now getting around to our “Worst of 2024” list. We are certainly more negative in this particular episode, but if you had to watch all these terrible movies, you would be negative too.

Enjoy!

Best of 2024

It is that time of year again, a season when we inevitably spend way too much time engaging in discussions about all the movies we loved from the year before. This year, however, we kind of felt like there weren’t as many standout moments or experiences to love, perhaps just a handful of things to like. Even with that sentiment in mind, we still had an absolute blast getting extra long-winded in our conversations and reflections.

Enjoy!

Companion

This week we are talking about the new comedy/thriller, Companion. Just in case you don’t know what this movie is about, but still want to see it, we will not talk about any of the plot points in this post. But we did largely enjoy this movie, even if we don’t care for all or one of the actors, and their very punchable face.

Enjoy!

A Real Pain, Wicked, & Emilia Perez

This week is a catchup episode. It has been awhile since we talked about things that are newish, so we are just covering as much as we can in an hour or so. Some things we liked, others not as much. As a little treat for you, we largely agreed this time, which is rare. So at least you don’t have to hear us bicker too much.

Enjoy!

See For Me

It Is good thing we recorded all these episodes when we were the cabin, that way we have stuff to post when we are all trapped in our houses because of the snow. Hey, speaking of being trapped in a house, this week we are discussing the 2021 thriller, See For Me. It really feels like the perfect time of year to watch this kind of movie, and at a cool 93 minutes, you will still have plenty of time to do whatever else you do when the weather is bad.

Enjoy!

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie

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!

Venom: The Last Dance

This week we are talking about the third entry in the Venom franchise, Venom: The Last Dance. Is Venom in this movie? Yes. Is there Dancing in the movie? Also yes. Is this the last one of these we will have to watch? For the love of god, we certainly hope so. So sit back and relax as we talk about why this movie is not very good.

Enjoy!

VHYes

Another movie from this year’s Cabin Chronicles. This time we are watching VHYes. It is hard to describe what this movie is, maybe a little bit Kentucky Fried Movie, but maybe also a little horror. Maybe it’s not very good, but maybe it is actually okay. It is hard to put your finger on this one, so maybe it is worth watching, just so you can see, but maybe it’s not.

Enjoy!

White Chicks

This year we kicked off our cabin trip with the oft talked about, but never seen movie, White Chicks. It was exactly as bad as we feared it would be, but a deal is a deal, and since someone left us money on the nightstand, we were obligated to watch this comedy? Horror? Science Fiction? It is really hard to tell what kind of genre this fits into, since it is every bit as disturbing and upsetting as say a Requiem for a Dream, and it shares a same star. Neat.

Enjoy!

Trap & Alien: Romulus

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!

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

This week we are talking about a movies that seemed like had been in development for the last 25 years, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Tim Burton has been a very divisive director on this podcast in the past, but maybe this return to a class idea would inspire greatness in the once unique director. Or maybe we hated it. Or maybe it was fine. So many ways this could go.

Enjoy!

Deadpool & Wolverine

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!

Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F

Full disclosure, the Beverly Hills Cop franchise does not carry the same weight that many of the other franchises do from this era of film, so when Netflix announced that they were making a fourth installment after a 30 year break, we were not exactly over the moon. We went into Axel F with pretty modest expectations, so we thought surely that could at least meet them. Netflix doesn’t have a great track record in the past, but could this be the one to finally feel like an actual movie, instead of a straight to streaming release? We reveal our feelings pretty quickly this week, so just give it a listen.

Enjoy!

The Watchers

This week we are talking about the thoroughly mediocre horror film, The Watchers. We didn’t want you to go into this one not knowing if we liked it or not. While there are some okay parts, there are not enough to justify this being a feature length horror film. Just know going into this episode that we are going to be making fun of a lot of it.

Enjoy!

In a Violent Nature

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!

Bad Boys: Ride or Die & The Hit Man

This week we are talking about new movies, one in theaters, and the other available on Netflix, Bad Boys: Ride or Die and The Hit Man. We enjoyed both movies well enough, so if you want to watch them and circle back to us, that’s okay. Otherwise, sit back as we jump all over the place talking about the good and bad of these two movies.

Enjoy!

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

Can we please cool it with the stupid names. Every prequel or spinoff has to be saddled with the most awkward collection of words to loosely tie it tie the film to the source material, but no one cares. And if you think our biggest complaint about Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is the title, well do we have bad news for you.

Enjoy!

Abigail & The Fall Guy

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!

Gozilla X Kong: The New Empire

This week we are discussing another Godzilla movie, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire. We spend too much time trying to figure out how you say the title of the film, and what it means. Opinions are split on this one, but that usually makes for better conversations. We all agree this movie is stupid, but it just depends on which flavor of stupid you like.

Enjoy!
