Scott and Lee Save the Movies

Save the Movies is back with content I couldn’t be arsed to edit for almost a year! Scott and absurdly talented henchman Lee watch Enchanted, a delightful deconstruction of a Disney princess movie. Before Ralph breaks the Internet was poking fun at Disney princesses, Enchanted was doing it, but, like, in a clever way.

Finally, an anti-ponytail movie.

Scott and bandit with a heart of gold Lee watch Krull, the 80s era Star Wars adjacent fantasy movie that just won’t stop (killing bandits). Much ado about: Peter Clines, Han Solo movie predictions (mostly accurate), Conan the barbarian (if he was a wizard), Liam Neesen (hey, let me axe you something), Starjammers (not familiar … Continue reading "Episode 26 – Krull"

Special guest Mark Finn joins us to talk about Hudson Hawk, but really Moonlighting

We got new equipment to play with! The title says Niko, but be prepared for some serious goofing about.

in which Lee goes off on lazy millennials for not offending him more

Scott and scantily clad hawk man Lee review Flash (Aaaah) Gordon.  Based on one of the few comics Lee somehow doesn’t have encyclopedic knowledge of, Flash Gordon follows the exploits of the eponymous all American quarterback who can never fail. Featuring: Queen (Aaaah), our listener, hawkman short shorts, pudding space, super suits on layaway, Hot … Continue reading "Episode 22 – Flash Gordon"

Scott and the original manic pixie dream girl Lee watch Xanadu. Not sure if it’s okay to like a goofy fun movie? Is it ironic to like Xanadu in 2017? Does anybody even know what irony is anymore? Forget about what everybody else thinks, watch Xanadu and be happy. Featuring: Guilelessness, Gene Kelly being suave … Continue reading "Episode 21 – Xanadu"

Scott and doomed narcoleptic Lee watch Freddy vs Jason, just in time for Halloween (give or take a month). A surprisingly well constructed crossover that is a better Batman vs Superman than Zach Snyder could ever dream up. Featuring: the girl from Destiny’s Child, unnecessary monologues, how to make Godzilla boring, mundane serial killers, Jason … Continue reading "Episode 20 – Freddy vs Jason"

Scott and Lee watch Sunshine, a movie with so much potential...

Scott and world weary private dick Lee watch Cast a Deadly Spell, an HBO joint from the early 90s. Magical chocolate meets noir peanut butter in this surprisingly good urban fantasy. Also tons Lovecraft lore before it was in literally (figuratively) everything. Featuring: H.P. Lovecraft, people at cons who believe in magic, kung fu masters, industrial … Continue reading "Episode 18 – Cast a Deadly Spell"

Scott and anthropomorphic chicken Lee (and Sally!) watch Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. Phil Lord’s first animated movie, but not his last. He also wrote the excellent Lego Movie, the tv show Clone High, and a bunch of other stuff that’s probably also amazing. Featuring: Sally peeking through windows, jokes on jokes, olive helmet … Continue reading "Episode 17 – Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs"

Scott and Lee review the Wachowskis' randian allegory (we were surprised to) Speed Racer

Scott and Lee check out Tucker and Dale vs Evil, where we learn that hillbillies are people to.

Scott and Lee do their thing with Starship Troopers, starring super pilot Denise Richards. Plus Jake Busey's hanging around.

Scott and Lee review Constantine, and incidentally a couple of other Keanu Reeves movies.

Scott and Lee save Robot and Frank, a slow metaphor heavy film about memory loss in the not to distant future

We put our hats on backwards and review Over the Top, featuring The Smasher, classism, and suspicious double eliminations.

Scott and concussed assassin A. Lee save The Long Kiss Goodnight. Gina Davis stars as the lady version of James Bond and/or Jason Bourne.
