We watch a movie about four octogenarian women going to the Super Bowl, because apparently that’s a full concept for a movie these days? Like, just… older people seeing football? That’s a movie? Anyway, it’s called 80 for Brady and we watched it. One of us even liked it, so if you enjoy listening to the other two being dumbfounded, this is the episode for you.
After a little talk about the writers’ strike (donate to the Entertainment Community Fund here, if you’re so inclined), Dan takes us behind the scenes at Flop House HQ.
You wanna movie about Russell Crowe, he drive around on a Vespa, maybe getta rid of some demons? Ho boy, The Pope’s Exorcist gonna make something real nice for you! That’s right, we all took field trips for a rare Flop House in the aisles (although who knows if The Pope’s Exorcist will still be playing in any theaters by the time this comes out)!
Stuart runs us through some of those tantalizing, teasing trailers.
Yeah yeah yeah, Ashton Kutcher and Reese Witherspoon, whatever, let’s talk about REAL STAR POWER — Hallie Haglund! Hallie’s back! HALLIE! HALLIE! HALLIE! She joins us to discuss our second romcom in a row: Your Place or Mine, a nonsensical romp about a week-long accountancy course, and also love.
Elliott guides us in a cinematic celebration of everyone’s favorite holiday — tax day!
Huh. Traditionally, one gets TWO tickets to paradise, but I guess we didn’t get a plus one. You know what? Climb into our luggage, so you can join us as we discuss Ticket to Paradise, a holdover from an earlier era when we still had movie stars, and used them to paper over not having much else.
