Podcast by Insert Super Pun Here
This episode is an Alison pick and we're going all the way back in time to 1999- that great bastion year of amazing movies. Join us for Greg Kinnear, product placement, and whether or not an American utilizing a British accent is appropriation.
Talking about the Green Lantern movie isn't really something anyone wants to do, but since we're superheroes in our own right, we took on the challenge. Also, our apologies to Blake Lively for judging her so harshly.
If you're interested in the history of Spike TV, then this is the podcast episode for you. We also mention Blade the Series if that's more your thing.
We are FINALLY talking about the Snyder Cut of DC's Justice League and boy is our friendship tested. Tune in to see if we make it through.
Wrapping up the Blade Trinity the only way we know how- by talking about multiple other topics that have nothing to do with the movie itself. But hey, we also talk about Ryan Reynolds (hot), Wesley Snipes' vision for the movie (not), and our truest love- Parker Posey (super hot).
Blade II is full of everything we asked for- death by dick stabbing/shooting, damp vampires, and of course, Norman Reedus. We also talk about video games a lot, so sorry about that.
We're finally back and we're discussing Blade. That's right, f*cking Blade, motherf*ckers. Parker went full research mode for this one, so strap on and strap in.
It's an Alison pick! What do Josh Hartnett and Devon Sawa have in common? They are not in this movie. We talk about a lot of things that have nothing to do with The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, but we still love this movie, so no harm done.
We've been away for a while, for which we apologize, but time moves differently in a pandemic and we lost track of it. Anyway, we know you've been hankering after our Daredevil thoughts and feelings, so here you go!
Sorry to keep you hanging on this last installment of our Mission:Impossible series, but we're back and we're talking about everything- including the movie we're supposed to be talking about. But yes, we do talk about Henry Cavill. A LOT.
We're off the rails in a pretty insane way in this episode, despite enjoying the movie. Join us for Taylor Swift updates, a breakdown of tv shows from the 2000s, Jeremy Renner fan-girling, and arguments (of course).
We're talking about Ghost Protocol today, but continually confusing it with Rogue Nation. We eventually figure it out, but it's a long road.
We're on the third movie in this series and it's starting to feel like the series we know and love. Your hosts are back in form, arguing over the dumbest possible things and talking about hot dudes.
You know what's impossible? Getting through this movie with your eyes open. Fall asleep with us as we discuss George Lazenby and motorcycle duels. Seriously, how is a motorcycle duel boring?!
We embark on a new series that is not comic book-based, but does have plenty of superhero moments. While you may think this episode is the beginning of us becoming a Tom Cruise-themed podcast, we eventually reel it back in.
It's a one-off Parker Pick and boy did he make Alison regret her decision to start a podcast with him. Listen in to hear our takes on this Batman Forever knock-off that (un)surprisingly never became a tv show.
We're doing an Alison Pick this week and boy do we regret it. So many famous faces- you'd think we'd find something to like about this movie. Spoiler alert: we do not.
We're at the end of our series on the current DCEU and ending it with a bang. And by bang, we mean using a lot of this episode to talk about the politics of writers' rooms and directorial choices. But also- deep insights! Arguments about not listening to each other! Ranking the DCEU! Fawning over Chris Messina! We've got it all, folks.
We're talking Aquaman and a bunch of other movies to avoid talking about Aquaman. Join us if you're interested in Spaceballs, lasers, Patrick Wilson, or swimming in jeans.
We're not mad, we're just disappointed. But we have fun talking about it, at least.
We're FINALLY talking about the best movie in the DCEU and we're only a little disappointed that we don't have that much to complain about. A Hollywood Chris? Wonder Woman theme music? Lucy Davis? How did we even find anything to complain about at all?
We discuss Suicide Squad, against our wills. Hot guys and teensy bits of fan service are the only thing that keep us awake, besides our white hot rage.
It's Batman v Superman v Boredom and I think we can all agree that Boredom won. Join Alison and Parker as they discuss this hot mess and rewrite the entire DCEU because, why not?
We are embarking on our second series- this time it's the DC Extended Universe (DCEU). And since Man of Steel is the first movie in that series and we're sticklers for propriety, this is where we begin. Parker has actually done some research and Alison's research/drinking began well in advance of the recording. This episode comes complete with bonus recording.
We're discussing The Green Hornet. Join us for an in-depth, real-time struggle to remember the year 2011, as well as a complete re-imagining of the plot and casting choices.
We're talking Crisis on Infinite Earths. If you don't watch the CW Arrowverse shows, I suppose you could skip this episode, but then you wouldn't get to listen to Parker geek out and Alison drunkenly try to mirror his excitement.
It's time to tell the world about the 1994 unreleased Fantastic Four movie. We did the watching so you don't have to. You're welcome.
Merry Christmas! Just in time for the spending-too-much-time-with-family holidays, here's our episode on Shazam! Learn how much wine it takes for Alison to open up about crushing on middle school characters, as well as Parker's chill ass high school paper on What About Bob? and various other Bill Murray movies.
Holy shit, we're still alive! And we're back! Finally! Ok, enough exclamation points. This episode, we're covering Spider-Man: Far From Home. Alison is sick (most coughs have been edited out- you're welcome), Parker is still angry about The Phantom, and Jake Gyllenhaal's beard is super hot.
We're finally out of the MCU. For one episode anyway. Today, we're talking about The Phantom, that bastion of 1990s action-adventure pulp shit. Alison loves it, Parker is traumatized by it, and we both look forward to everything Comic Con teased us with.
Well, we did it. We watched all the MCU movies in order. And now, we're ranking them, according to our own sick and twisted criteria. And we feel pretty badly about it. Sometimes.
We're discussing Endgame in a reverent and solemn manner. Psych. We are argue over something dumb within the first 15 minutes and then try not to cry the rest of the time while drinking Endgame wine. Join us, won't you?
We're caught up on the MCU! Just in time for Endgame! And we're talking Captain Marvel, Ken doll Coulson, powerful fucking ladies, and of course, a whole bunch of things that don't have anything to do with the movie or comic at all.
Alison and Parker have a hard time staying on task this episode, but if you're into Cary Elwes, Quantum Leap, America's Sweethearts, Charlie Hunnam, or just tangents in general, this is the episode for you.
Our levels are still shitty, but Alison and Parker are powering through to bring you their thoughts on Avengers: Infinity War. It may have taken 11 months longer to get to this episode than previously anticipated, but we got there, so back off.
Guest host Britt helps us break down Black Panther. We talk about seeing the movie in theaters, we each choose a boyfriend, and Alison's levels are really high (sorry).
Alison and Parker discuss what we believe to be the current funniest entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We also get wine drunk and go off topic A LOT, but we're not ashamed, so we're not apologizing.
We're (kind of?) on a roll here. And we're covering Spider-Man: Homecoming, and the gloves are off. Join Parker and Alison as we delve into the best Spider-Man movie (so far) and nearly come to blows.
They're back and they've got a guest. Jesse joins Alison and Parker to talk about Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2. We're drawing lines to Infinity War and using this episode as a therapy session. And we figure out what's wrong with Earth vs. the rest of the planets in the universe.
We're talking Doctor Strange and we're touching on some pretty deep topics. Science vs. magic, ethnic casting issues, the color scheme of the Dark Dimension, Benjamin Bratt's whereabouts and our feelings on Miss Congeniality 2.
We're back! Please excuse our lengthy absence, but we've had a busy summer so far and it doesn't look like it's letting up anytime soon. Please enjoy our voices, as it may be a week or two (or three) before we're back with another episode. We're talking Captain America: Civil War and there is soon much to talk about. And we talk about it all. Oddly enough, we don't actually fight in this episode, but it's not boring, we swear.
The title of this episode should actually be Where It All Falls Apart. We definitely fall off the rails multiple times during this episode, but maybe that's what makes it entertaining?
We're nearing the end of Phase II and Parker has had just enough of the Devil's sauce to get real chatty about this second installment of the Avengers movies. Also, listen to Alison's dog, Master Splinter, voice his own opinion of the movie by whining throughout the entire episode.
It's episode 10 and we're talking about our favorite ragtag gang of galaxy protectors. Alison swoons over Lee Pace. Parker mansplains part of the movie...incorrectly.
We're back, and so is Bucky Barnes, thank the stars! So much happens in this movie that Alison loses her mind and can't articulate her thoughts, Parker disagrees with everything Alison says, and The Winter Soldier treats us to a shirtless scene. Thanks, TWS!
We are less than impressed with the second installation of the Thor-based trilogy. A sad agreement is reached on Natalie Portman's involvement in the MCU and we barely make it through the recap . Thank the gods for Loki.
Iron Man deals with PTSD after taking one for the team in Avengers and we're here to break it down for you. Featuring special guest, Lynelle Chaba, there is a lot to unpack here, so buckle up.
We're back! Finally. Sorry we're so behind, but we're valiantly attempting to catch up. This week, we're into the first big mashup of Marvel characters in the MCU: The Avengers. Stay tuned for a really great argument that tests the bonds of our friendship and exposes Parker's deep-seated fear of emotions.
We're one step closer to the end of the MCU's Phase 1 and boy are we excited. Taking a step back in time, we crush over Peggy Carter, have a "Who is more evil?" debate about Red Skull and Hitler, and mourn together over what could have been, re: Peggy and Steve.
A shirtless Chris Hemsworth. The concept of Odin-sleep. Chris Hemsworth vs. Liam Hemsworth. What the hell is the casket? Natalie Portman. Chris Hemsworth serving breakfast. The largest boilermakers we've ever seen. A strangely sexual assassination attempt. Chris Hemsworth staring into the void. We discuss all these things and more in this week's episode of Insert Super Pun Here. NOTE: We are a week behind due to Academy Award Best Picture movie binging, so we will be posting two episodes at some point to catch up.
Alison fawns over Sam Rockwell, while Parker struggles to understand a pretty basic scene in the movie. Black Widow is finally here and maybe Alison doesn't miss Terrence Howard as much as she thought she would. Mickey Rourke's feet and fingernails are topics of discussion and Pepper mourns the loss of a lovingly curated collection of art. Join us as we break down Iron Man 2.
