Cheer Up, Buddy!

We're back to celebrate Keanu Month with a double feature of his movies from 2006: The Lake House and A Scanner Darkly.

In addition to talking about magical mailboxes and rotoscope animation, Riddy an…

It's a transitional time for Riddy and Tom so no movie discussions for August. Instead, you get a catch-up episode where we discuss: moving; Deadpool & Wolverine; Rixxtrax; state fairs; obscure Septe…

We're breaking the fourth wall this week as we talk about Deadpool (directed by Tim Miller, 2016) and Deadpool 2 (directed by David Leitch, 2018).

In addition to discussing the Merc with the Mouth, we…

We're the best there is at what we do, but what we do best isn't very good: sad (bad?) podcasts discussing James Mangold's "Logan" from 2017.

In addition to discussing Hugh Jackman's iconic performanc…

This time we watched the Cohen brother's 2010's True Grit. We also discuss (somehow) Spider-man, Venom, AND Spider Gwen, Marvel double-dippers, the Florida Panthers, Arkansas, and Florida.

Want to con…

We're back on the case and looking for more sad men in film by watching Manhunter, the 1986 Michael Mann thriller.

We decided to take off the month of May and this episode explains why.

In addition to providing unnecessary excuses, this episode also includes us rambling on about: our unexpected international fando…

Riddy and Tom are finally reviewing a modern movie by discussing Monkey Man, the 2024 film starring, directed by, and written by Dev Patel.

In addition to their repeated requests for Dev to guest on t…

This week we sing the praises of Jacques Demy's 1964 classic "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg." And even though every line of dialogue is sung in the movie, I promise we abandon the idea of fully singing …

So we covered another contemporary movie after watching the Oscar-winning Christopher Nolan film from 2023, "Oppenheimer." Was it worth it? You have to listen to find out!

In addition to discussing th…

Life in plastic, it's fantastic...because today we're talking about 2023's Barbie, and specifically Ken and Allen. Must listen, if for nothing else, Tom and Riddy figuring out what Ken dolls they wou…

When you find a flaw in the world, you need to try and fix it. So when Riddy learned Tom hadn't seen Akira Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" from 1954, he knew he had to make things right.

In addition to dis…

Valentine's Day is fast approaching so we decided to get in the mood by watching Wong Kar-Wai's 2000 film, "In The Mood For Love."

You know this is a sad movie but we had a good time talking about it …

Even for a sad-man-movie podcast, Akira Kurosawa's "Ikiru" from 1952 is really, really sad! But that doesn't mean we didn't have a good time talking about it.

In this episode, Riddy and Tom talk about…

Travel back to 1960 with Tom and Riddy via "The Apartment."

Jack Lemmon is a sad man, and the hosts discuss the new year, film making, boys (rickshaw and otherwise), bosses they'd let borrow their bed…

Riddy and Tom finally did it. They discussed an MCU movie. It's set during Christmastime, so we used that as an excuse to talk about "Iron Man 3."

This is probably the least sad-man movie covered so f…

The most wonderful time of the year can often be the saddest time, too. So our first episode for December is the holiday classic, "It's A Wonderful Life."

Despite the cheery title, this is a pretty sa…

We continue our self-indulgent Birthday Month choices and Tom really went with it for his choice with possibly the most self-indulgent film of all-time: Federico Fellini's "8 1/2" from 1963.

Obviously…
