Ep. 85 - Overboard 1987 and 2018
Peter is back after being thrown OVERBOARD for our first episode of 2019, but he gets his revenge on co-host Mike by taunting him over his lack of a shoe rack built by The Great Kurt Russell. As it turns out in that 1987 film his co-star Goldie Hawn also does not get such magnificent shelving for shoes and instead through the movie magic of amnesia finds out that she is married to Mr. Russell (life imitates art, I guess) and is now a blue collar mother of three. This original film gave birth to another remake but on this episode we are talking about the 2018 version starring Eugenio Derbez and Anna Faris. And we were not amused. Hopefully you are with this episode though, which you can find at the links below:

In this episode we dicuss and compare the portrayal of Lara from LARA CROFT: TOMB RAIDER and the new theatrical release of TOMB RAIDER and how each version was used and some of the supporting men from both movies.
Inspired by the recent release of RED SPARROW, we decide to review another movie involving a bird of color, Darren Aronofsky's BLACK SWAN which was inspired by Satoshi Kon's PERFECT BLUE. Despite being one of our shorter episodes, we still manage to bring up ballet, overbearing mother's that can bake and hentai.
For Valentine's Day, we decide to give the listeners something sexy. And what sexier than a teen vampire and a rich playboy who's handy with the whips! We talk about TWILIGHT and FIFTY SHADES OF GREY, the fan faction that it's inspired by.
For Christmas we treat ourselves and our listeners to a debate on the charms of the very handsome CARY GRANT and DENZEL WASHINGTON as these two silver screen angels battle it out in our episode on THE BISHOP'S WIFE and THE PREACHER'S WIFE! Happy holidays!
Instead of going with a remake concept, we decided to pair up Marvel and DC's first "team up" movies that Joss Whedon had a hand in and discuss which one pulled it off better.
