I Make My Wife Watch Movies

Guys, we know. But here is an episode. We've seen a bunch of movies and we talk about them. SPOILER FREE, so you can go through and decide which of these you may want to check out if you still haven't. It's in the title, but we talk about Venom, A Star is Born, First Man, Free Solo, and mid90s - in that order. Enjoy!

Summer is over kiddos! We drove to Houston to hang out with the Smith/Pate's and saw one of the most delightful movies of the year. This episode has horrible representation but we did really love this movie and we talk about it. SPOILERS abound.

Better late than never? Here is our chats on SOLO and Deadpool 2. We recorded this a few weeks back but here we are. Our eternal apologies. New episodes for older movies coming soon folks! The Coen Brothers movie is Hail, Caesar! While you're here, a few movies we've seen that we will likely never do episodes on: - Ocean's 8 - okay but pretty forgettable. While enjoyable, this article gets at the issues very well. - American Animals - one of the best movies of the year so far. - Hereditary - so disturbing and terrifying. See at your own risk. - Sorry To Bother You - completely nuts and awesome. We may talk about this when it gets its wide release in July.

Krystle's not the law... I'm the law. Which is why we finally watched DREDD, the Karl Urban/Alex Garland masterpiece (not that I don't love me some Sly Stallone). Enjoy and all that.  Every Frame a Painting - Memories of Murder video essay How to make a Dredd sequel & a lesson in film finance by Adi Shankar (producer on Dredd) Karl Urban says Alex Garland directed Dredd   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

Well it took us about 10 years too, but we are finally back with a new episode to chat about the crowning achievement of the MCU: Letting Shane Black direct an Iron Man movie all those years ago. Or maybe it's Black Panther. Or that Taika got to make an epic Thor movie about colonialism. Anyway - Infinity War! Spoilers. But let's be real if you haven't seen it by now you are not listening to this.   Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

Krystle finally gets Michael to watch the beloved Paddington movies, and now they must get their own little British bear. These movies are absolutely wonderful, so you should watch them and then tune in to our spoiler filled chatteroo.

We have some Joyner-De La Pena's over in our Labyrinth. We mainly talk about the Labyrinth of Pan, but we also touch on The Shape of Water, fish sex, and other such things. We spoil everything, including the first Narnia movie. Enjoy!

We have some episodes ready to go for you this week, and first is Black Panther! We saw this in IMAX, on opening night and are thrilled to talk about it. A few minutes of spoiler free pre-talk, and then it's ALL SPOILERS ALL THE TIME. See this movie people. We're off to Wakanda. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

We are back for 2018 people! Starting off our mini awards season prep with one of Michael's favorites, Dunkirk. Krystle hates really tense, suspenseful things, so tune in to hear some hot takes, and which parts made Krystle's younger sister cry her eyes out. Also, help us out! We've seen almost all the awards fodder, so if there is a particular movie you want us to spend more time on, let us know!   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

After two years of waiting and two screenings we finally get to talk about the Last Jedi. SPOILERS THROUGHOUT.  Feelings are running hot on this one, and there is a lot to unpack. Tune in for our thoughts and feel free to share yours, even if they include blasphemous nonsense like Rian Johnson isn't the GOAT. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

We're back with a GRAB BAG of movies we've seen over the last month or so. In order, we have NON-SPOILER chats about: Murder on the Orient Express Roman J. Israel, Esq. (Michael Clayton was written/directed by Tony Gilroy, FYI) The Darkest Hour The Killing of a Sacred Deer (sort of) The Disaster Artist Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Coco Lady Bird   We also hint at some of our feelings on The Last Jedi (episode coming tomorrow!), Magicians season 2, Amazon vs. Netflix, preliminary oscar feelings/predictions, and more.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

The dynamic duo journey to Houston and see Justice League with their good friends Jenny and Kyle! Spoiler free through minute 22, and then SPOILERIFIC to the end.  Lots of drama and discussion on this one gang. We will finally answer the age old question about DC movies: is Michael a misogynist?

The dynamic duo go to Asgaard, and then some other garbage planet where Jeff Golblum is in charge (I'd live there), and ultimately see Chris Hemsworth with his shirt off, and then we had to leave the theater as Krystle started cat-calling the screen, being very aggressive, leading to management asking us to exit the premises. Anyway, we talk about the part of the movie we got to see!   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

The happy couple returned to Hawkins and the upside down! We binged through season 2 of Stranger Things and have some thoughts. Pretty much spoiler-y the whole way through, so be warned.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

Special reverse episode for Halloween! Michael had never seen Hocus Pocus, so we rectified the situation. After Alien Krystle needed a palate cleanser, so here we are. There is nothing to spoil in this movie, but spoilers. Happy Halloween folks!   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

We get scared watching Alien, the 1979 masterpiece by Ridley Scott that launched a phenomenal sequel, other meh sequels, and some okay "reboot" movies still going today. Krystle can't handle scary movies and basically spent the movie screaming in Michael's ear. Spoilers bursting through chests people!   Also - the original trailer to this movie is all visual with creepy sounds, so be prepared to get in the mood.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

The gruesome twosome went to Austin! We hung out with the lovely Bruce and Karen Perkins (Michael's Aunt and Uncle) to see and chat about this modern sci-fi masterpiece. Bruce saw the original Blade Runner six times in theaters, so he was excited to jump into this one. Some disclaimers: - Audio is a little echo-y - They have two beautiful dogs, one of which was whining in the background for the back half of the convo - This is SPOILER FILLED! So since you didn't see this movie (apparently we were the only ones??) you should go support something awesome and then come back and listen to this.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

We saw Stronger with Jake Gyllenhall and Tatiana Maslany about the Boston Marathon bombing, and cried our way through the whole thing. A little non-spoiler recommendation at the beginning, but we get into spoilers pretty quick. Give it a listen! Or don't... you most likely live in a free country.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

The happy couple watched T2 and saved the future. Many innocents died along the way. Krystle questions the legitimate science behind sentient liquid metal, and Michael wishes he could do as many pull ups as Linda Hamilton.    Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

We are back! A special episode with a special guest... Michael's mother, the Dane in Denmark. Michael tried to get the ladies to watch Dredd without success. Susanne tried to get the kiddos to watch Pretty Woman without success. We watched a movie about drones instead. More movies will be forcibly watched now that summer is over fools! Hit us up if you have a special request! Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

A few weeks late for this Ape-venture, but here it is. We saw War for the Planet of the Apes to see how the new director of The Batman did on his latest. I can feel the urge to make more monkey/ape/banana related puns and I won't be able to keep being strong, so for both of us I'm just going to leave it there. Enjoy!

Krystle forces her main man to watch a movie about a guy with scissors for hands by Tim Burton. Do you guys love this movie? People love this movie right? We watch. We talk. We live to watch another day. 

Krystle absolutely hated Snowpiercer so this was a tough sell, but we had some friends over and we convinced her to watch the new Netflix original by Bong Joon-Ho. It's about super pigs and Jake Gyllenhall is crazy in it. Need we say more? Spoilers about super pigs in this episode, naturally (non GMO). Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock  

We did it! We are all caught up just in the nick of time, and Krystle is officially a Game of Thrones convert. We talk all things seasons 5 and 6 as we prepare ourselves for the glorious return of the best show on television this coming Sunday.  Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

MCU lukewarmthusiast Michael, takes Krystle to see yet another Spider-Man reboot. Even with the glories of the Civil War airport sequence, the lovebirds enter this adventure a bit skeptical. Can Sony swing its way into their hearts? Tune in to find out! Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock No spiders were harmed during the recording of this podcast.

The dynamic duo continue their journey through Westeros, celebrating America's freedom by finishing up season 4 of Game of Thrones. Spoiler filled discussion of all things GoT. Maybe this will build up some confidence so Krystle will watch Attack on Titan or Breaking Bad. Time will tell. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

We got to see this Edgar Wright masterpiece a few weeks back at a screening but it's finally in theaters! Spoilers and whatnot. Definitely see this movie though. We certainly enjoyed it. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

One of our favoritos from Silicon Valley made a great movie about his real life relationship. In our esteemed opinion(s) this is one of the best romantic comedies to come along in years. It's a sort of reverse episode as Krystle got to see this one first at a screening! Spoilers.

We branch out to bring you some GoT bonus episodes leading up to season 7 in July. Krystle has never seen these before, and finally watching them all together is a dream come true. We are binge-ing our way through the whole series to get ready and will post as we work our way through. Spoilers. A lot of talk about nipples and menstruation in this one. Enjoy! Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and Closing music by Aesop Rock (and Ramin Djawadi). Bonus track in the middle is "Whales" by Hail Mary Mallon.

Another great Alamo Drafthouse screening of an old cult classic! We watched The Big Lebowski - tune in to see if Krystle can push past her feminist leanings to enjoy a movie that fails the Bechdel test in spectacular fashion. But boy John Goodman is a hoot! If you don't like this movie, well that's just like, your opinion, man. I think I speak for the world when I say, you're out of your element Krystle. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

More Boston! More crime! More Affleck! But there is never enough Affleck to satisfy Michael. We watch Benjamin's directorial debut and enjoy another crime film set in Boston based on the novel by the great Dennis Lehane. Is this Ben Affleck's best movie? Will Krystle give this more than 0 precious gem stones? Mysteries abound in this world. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

The BFFs watch an old classic with no death or destruction, but lots of man tears from Dustin Hoffman and child stalking from Meryl Streep... yes gang, it's Kramer vs. Kramer! Spoilers start to finish on this one. We highly recommend it, especially for insensitive husbands who are so caught up in their work (or GMAT prep) that they neglect their wives and family - yeah, Trevor, that's not okay. Anyway, please write in and tell Krystle that you want her to watch Dredd next. Pretty please? Help me out here. Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

Michael forces Krystle to watch Wonder Woman, because she generally hates movies with strong female protagonists. Then she realized Chris Pine was the real hero the whole time and actually liked it a lot. Jokes.   Listen to find out how much we liked the new DCEU entry, and Michael mansplain to Krystle what it means to be a feminist and empower women. Spoiler-free at the beginning and then eventually we cross the line. BE ALERT and you'll be fine. But you should see this movie, so you have no excuse, really.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

Krystle slept on it and decided to change her rating and Michael had some last minute thoughts that he couldn't keep to himself. You guys can figure out that this is an add-on to the last episode right? I don't need to explain that here? Like I don't need to tell you to listen to that one first because this isn't a real episode, it's just a quick follow-up? We all good here? Okay sounds good.   Instagram: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

This episode is proof that there are miracles in the world, as Krystle finally agrees to watch The Departed! Our first Scorcese experience is a delight for everyone as Krystle is moved emotionally in a way she never before would have thought possible. A worldview is changed. A marriage bond is deepened. And gratefully Michael doesn't attempt any bad Boston accents.    IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock 

This episode isn't about the movie Zodiac... and if it was, I certainly wouldn't tell you. Okay we will tell you - we saw Zodiac with some friends! The men wanted Fight Club, but the ladies picked Zodiac. A slow-burn, Fincher masterpiece, which doesn't get enough credit (this convo included). Spoilers per usual.   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and Closing music by Aesop Rock.   R.I.P. Chumbawamba.

The dynamic duo go see the new Guy Ritchie King Arthur movie... and are apparently the only ones! Go see this movie. Also please don't unsubscribe because of Michael's bad accents. We know they are bad. Please have mercy. Spoilers and whatnot.   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

Reversal! Krystle finally makes Michael watch something. The people of instagram voted and this was their choice! The Anna Farris and Emma Stone classic about a Playboy bunny infiltrating a sorority and girls having self esteem and loving themselves for who they are and stuff. No one dies and no explosions. 0/5 stars.   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

We just watched Moonlight and we are feeling things. Spoilertastic discussion, so Luisa be warned! But seriously this flick is beautiful. Can't even joke about it. Episode also has some hints for the next one - our first reversal coming up!   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock

Ask and ye shall receive. Shout out to Bruce for recommending this precious gem stone of a movie. Spoiler heavy discussion of the 1982 Ridley Scott classic Blade Runner. Also some heavy speculation about the upcoming sequel Blade Runner 2049 directed by the legendary Denis Villeneuve. This is another love story. With robots. Trying to kill people. Hmmmm... I'm sensing a pattern.   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and closing music by Aesop Rock.

We are all Groot in this spoilerific episode full of hot takes right after seeing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in theaters! Our first episode where was force wasn't required. Thank you dancing baby Groot. Thank you from the world.   IG: @imakemywifewatchmovies Twitter: @wifewatchmovies   Opening and Closing Music by Aesop Rock.

We got to see a special theater screening of Michael Mann's Heat (1995)! It's a mix between a family drama, workplace comedy, and teen suicide PSA (move over 13 reasons why!). As you can imagine, Krystle's only objection was that there weren't enough gun fights and Al Pacino needed more monologues about butts. Goodness, this is such a great movie. Opening/closing music by Aesop Rock.

The title kind of says it all. For our first episode we watch the James Cameron action classic The Terminator (1984), pretty much so we can get to watch the second one down the line. Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn star in this epic time traveling romance, but someone isn't happy with their love. It's basically like Kate and Leopold. Opening/Closing Music by Aesop Rock
