The Virginal Cinephiles

ITS SHOWTIME!After a long summer hiatus, the virginal cinephiles are finally back and right in time for spooky season. What better way to kick off this festive time than with one of Tim Burton's first classics. This fun, wacky flick is definitely something out of a fever dream. Join us as we relive the magic that is a Burton film and prepare for it's newly released sequal.This is Beetlejuice!

Whether you're a devout god-fearing monotheist with a sense of humor or a cynical atheist, this film is for you. Not since the release of The Exorcist has organized religion found such a devisive film. From the mind of Kevin Smith and the great Askewniverse comes a story like no other with rogue angels, giant poop monsters, and Alanis Morissette as God herself. We had a very insightful discussion with special guests Gina Posner & producer Young Dersh about the many pros and cons of religion in society. This is... DOGMA! Jump to the 25-minute mark if you'd like to skip to our full movie coverage.

Is this the greatest football movie to date? Is it the best depiction of school integration in the south? Chime in with your thoughts and let us know! One things for sure, this film is useful in clarifying the shifts in attitudes and the various personal decisions that were an important part of the progress in the early days of integrating public schools in the South. It's clear to see how the combination of self-sacrifice and self-interest motivated many of the people who struggled through these troubled times. Join us along with special guest, Zach Holden, as we remember one of the most classic disney sports dramas to date. This is... REMEMBER THE TITANS!

Do you love martial arts movies, westerns, and 70s exploitation films? Then Quentin Tarantino movies are right up your alley. He's given us numerous classics from Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction to Jackie Brown and Death Proof. Known best for his long take tracking shots, non-linear story structure, and sometimes overly explicit vulgarities, he's also given us some of the best performances fom Sam Jackson and debatably more feet shots then we'd care to see. For episode 33, the Cinephiles decided to review one of Tarantino's greatest films to date and our first double feature. Featuring Uma Thurman as one of the most badass female assassins to ever hit the silver screen, this is... KILL BILL Vol 1 & 2

"SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!", "Help me help you", "You complete me", "You had me at hello!" Is this the most quotable Tom Cruise film we've done to date? Well, we definitely had a lot of fun discussing this 90s sports/rom-com classic. Join us as we learn all about the "Kwan" for the first time. This is... JERRY MAGUIRE!

The year is 1997. The Sci-Fi genre is at an all time high. Amongst heavy hitters like M.I.B, Starship Troopers, Event Horizon, Alien: Resurrection, and Gattaca, this one movie has lived on as a cult classic to this day. Combining elements of action, comedy, and an ever expansive dystopian future, it left us wanted to see from this grunge universe. Join the Virginal Cinephiles as welcome our guests Diamonique Gurny of CrownedFoxProductions and Tony Colangelo of False Finish Productions to discuss... THE FIFTH ELEMENT!

Easily one of the greatest blockbusters to come out of the early 80s, this action packed adventure comedy made every kid want to be a badass archaeologist when they grew up. You can find it on almost any list of the top most influential and culturally significant films of all time and we had so much fun reminiscing about it for the first time with our friend Ron Griffin. From the ulta talented minds of Steven Spielberg & George Lucas, this is Indiana Jones and the Raider of the Lost Ark!

Did you think the team was dead?! Did you think they were ALL DEAD?!? Well, guess again, because we are back with one of the greatest mid 90s, summer blockbusters to ever hit the big screens. That's right, for the first time, we all watched the film that made Tom Cruise the action star we all know and love today. We talk espionage and sip on mysterious french cocktails. This is MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!

This week, the virginal cinephiles welcomed the lovely Lauren Dershowitz to the couch to bless us with one of the greatest courtroom comedies to come out of 1992. It's a timeless classic that to this day is praised for its accuracy in litigation. Lauren and Frankie could have recited the entire script word for word from start to finish if we let them. We had a blast with these two yoots! This is My Cousin Vinny!

This week, the virginal cinephiles welcomed, for the first time on the couch, Mr. Derek Barboza. Not only is Derek a great friend, he's also a skilled gamer and our go to expert on all things horror.

Surprisingly, none of us had ever seen this one and not everyone's opinion is what you think...

Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?! The age old debate rages 30 plus years later. Well, it's certainly one of the most iconic action films of all time.

They say there's something about your first piece. Well there's no doubt that this raunchy, coming of age film is a quintessential piece in your list of 90s cult classics.
