Anyone else want to "teenage the f**k up"?! In this episode of Movie For Two, we marvel at the staggeringly effective absurdity of the buddy cop comedy, '21 Jump Street'. In between the pretty regular laughter, we chat about the way this movie reimagines what is considered funny, discuss how it achieves a higher baseline for its gags, talk about how it drills into a train of thought literally everyone has had, and express our huge appreaction for the construct of woke, anti-bullying, environmentalist drug dealers.

'Jackie Brown', Droopy Mouths and Squeaky Jackets

"AHHH, MOVIE FOR TWO. WHEN YOU ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY GOTTA NAIL A MOTHERF***IN PODCAST, ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES". Honestly, we're not that arrogant, we just wish we could get Samuel L. Jackson to adapt his best line and say it like that for us. Until that happens (never), join us for a re-examination of the most un-Tarantino of all the Tarantino movies, 'Jackie Brown'. Up for discussion in a wide-ranging chat about an underrated 90s classic is: whether this movie is a Tarantino-y 'Ocean's 11', why this role is so unique for De Niro, how this film laid some groundwork for 'Breaking Bad', whether waffles are the most powerful food, and why Louis and Melanie should get back together for a stoner YouTube mini series.

'The Big Sick', Podcast Agents and Rays of Light

In self-isolation we're all in a coma of sorts, so why not tackle a coma movie?!?! In this episode of Movie For Two, we, just like 'The Big Sick', find rays of light and humour against a rather bleak and frustrating backdrop. While chuckling along to the movie's array of quirky and sharp lines, we discuss the film's unique arc and concept, chat about its relatability that's delivered by genuinely real characters, ask whether the whole movie defies description or categorisation, and wonder whether Emily should be getting free post-coital Uber rides.

'Sicario', Flip Flops and Questionable Hygiene

Forget "Welcome to Juarez", this is "Welcome to, well, ummmm... Juar-antine"? In this episode of Lunacy For Two, (yes you read that correctly) we decide to throw ourselves into the incredibly dark drug-war thriller, 'Sicario', in order to match our mood as the nothingness of self-isolation sets in. With our TV equally as scared as us, we discuss this movie's less-is-more approach, chat about its unique delivery in an otherwise over-saturated genre, have our hairs stood up by the film's epic score, ponder whether we need a hygiene-attentive friend like Reggie, and ask whether Josh Brolin is the world's outstanding candidate for a remake of an Aussie classic.

'American Hustle', Microwave Struggles and Hair Rollers

Get your perm on, people! In this episode of the pod, we dive into the daring and dazzling who's-conning-who drama set in the 1970s, 'American Hustle'. While playing a bunch of the pop-music bangers from the movie's Grammy-nominated soundtrack, we chat about an ensemble of stars being let off the leash, Christian Bale's incredible transformation, David O. Russell as a zany Scorsese, Dani's shared experience with microwaves, and why this movie could empower a few to get out the hair rollers. Also, we've run out of beer in isolation!

'When Harry Met Sally', DM Sliding and Isolation Delirium

This is unquestionably the most fun we've had doing an episode so far. So in these strange times of isolation and day-time drinking, come and join us while we chat about idyllic Manhattan, DM sliding, elderly cameos from 'Superbad' stars, fake orgasms, wagon wheel coffee tables and, just more generally, the greatest rom-com ever.

'Focus', Rogue Australians and YouTube Dives

WE'RE BACK!! After an unusually long break between episodes, we return as an unemployed pair wanting to fill the void in these strange times. In this episode we immerse ourselves in the ultra cool facade of Glenn Ficarra and John Requa's crime comedy, 'Focus'. While Dani drools over her Will Smith deep dives on YouTube, we chat about this movie's escapism, discuss why this is a strangely unique role for Margot Robbie, and ponder why two expert thieves are constantly being stolen from.

'Crazy Rich Asians', Precarious Parking and Provocative Commas

"Bok Bok B**ch". In this episode of Movie For Two, we rewind to the massively significant moment for Asian representation in Hollywood that was the hilariously funny and visually stunning 'Crazy Rich Asians', the first all-Asian cast in Hollywood in a quarter of a century. Whilst chuckling over all Peik Lin's killer one liners, we discuss the burden this movie shoulders as a trailblazer, chat about its family-nonsense relatability beyond all the excess, and find solace in movie characters who, like one of us, also hate bucks parties.

'Silver Linings Playbook', Creepy Cameras and The Juju

We've all got a shot at a silver lining! In this episode of Movie For Two, we chat about the incredibly charming and insanely underrated film from David O. Russell, 'Silver Linings Playbook'. Up for discussion is Jennifer Lawrence's coming of age, De Niro's late-career gem, the unusual but effective look at a genuinely everyday America, and how Dani wants to work on her sports knowledge to be at the same level as J-Law and her on-point sports rants.

'Baby Driver', Kitchen Parties and Bottle-O Runs

"This s**t is bananas!" In this episode of Movie For Two, we soak ourselves in the magnificence of the music-based thrill ride that is Edgar Wright's 'Baby Driver'. We chat about how unique this is as a concept, its cool factor when it arrived, how this movie is more like a concert or a kitchen party than a movie, Jamie Foxx's unreal performance, where the opening scene ranks all time and why Baby would be a bloody handy friend to have around. Oh, and we say "bananas" a lot.

'Taken', Unnecessary Greens and Exquisite Baguettes

We don't have money, but we do have a very particular set of skills. Skills that make us... a podcasting delight! As Movie For Two hits double digits in the episode count, we relive the action classic that spawned an entire genre, 'Taken'. We discuss the movie's unique focus, remember its impact when it first arrived and unpack the way it makes the inevitable still totally compelling. We also chat about Bryan Mills' grocery choices and Holly Valance's, err...singing.

'Crackerjack', Beer Taxes and Pulling Hammies

WE WANT 1972 PRICES!! In a week when beer prices are going up thanks to rubbish taxes, we long for the nostalgic affordability seen in Mick Molloy's charming Aussie comedy, 'Crackerjack'. With 50% of the podcast a touch hangover after capitalising ahead of the price hike, we discuss the subtle brilliance of Molloy and the cast, chat about whether the movie is the most underrated Aussie comedy of all time, and develop some related movie pitches that Stan and Netflix need to hear.

'Easy A', Big Traps and Little Biceps

Want to relive the glorious awkwardness of your school years? Of course you do! In the eighth episode of Movie For Two, we dive into the unbelievably relatable teen comedy, 'Easy A'. In between the fits of laughter as we recall the best lines, we discuss the incredible Emma Stone, chat about how this stacks up against 'Mean Girls', and wonder whether any teenager has ever had traps and shoulders like Todd, Emma Stone's love interest in the movie.

'Bad Moms', Berlin Rampages and Trampled Bushes

"LET'S BE BAD, ERR, PODCASTERS!?" In the seventh episode of Movie For Two, we laugh ourselves to the point of delirium as we dive into the hilarity of 'Bad Moms'. While spending 40 minutes in tears, we discuss the genius of Kathryn Hahn, chat about why this movie is harshly judged by too many, and ask whether anyone in the world can pull off a better stressed-out mum look than Mila Kunis.

'Inglourious Basterds', Whisky Bars and Gasoline

GORLAMI! With '1917' now out in cinemas, we revisit a war epic of a different kind, Quentin Tarantino's 'Inglourious Basterds'. Amid the laughter and questionable attempts at accents, we chat about whether this is Tarantino's finest, drool over Michael Fassbender and the coolest line in history, sing some Bowie, and take delight in Hans Landa's "THAT'S A BINGO". Oh, and Weinstein is a basterd too.

'Snatch', Caravans and Pitt's Rig

"It's for me ma!" With Guy Ritchie's new movie 'The Gentlemen' out in cinemas, Dani and Tim revisit one of the cult classics that kicked it all off for him, 'Snatch'. On the table is Ritchie's genius, the perfection of this particular British humour, Brad Pitt's shirtless rig and whether or not Brick Top is actually pretty rubbish at fixing fights.

'A Star Is Born', Finger Sucking and Nose Billboards

In the fourth episode of Movie For Two, Dani and Tim immerse themselves in the musical masterpiece, 'A Star Is Born'. The pair play all the hit original music while laughing, getting goosebumps and discussing whether or not this is the best movie of the last two years. And they hope that, maybe, you'll always remember them this way.

In the third episode of Movie For Two, Dani and Tim relive and unpack the post-apocalyptic action epic, 'Mad Max: Fury Road'. Is it the greatest action movie of all time? Is it perfection for a sequel? And, most crucially, how does Megan Gale slide naked down a rope unharmed?

'Love Actually', Positional Experimentation and Grocery Lists

In the second episode of Movie For Two, Dani and Tim unpack the flawed but fun Christmas classic, 'Love Actually'. Among the topics covered are: What in the world are the body-double couple standing in for? How do Jamie and Aurelia get a mortgage or decide on groceries when they can't communicate? And could the politics in this movie actually be a documentary?

Merry Christmas Ya Filthy Animals! In the very first episode of Movie For Two, Dani and Tim dive into the greatest Christmas movie of them all, 'Home Alone'. The podcast wades into the most crucial questions of our time: Why do the McCallisters have a flamethrower? How much head trauma can Marv take? And is the whole premise of this movie predicated on poor maintenance by the local council?
