Mickey's Bean? "Sunflower terrifying?" JAMES FRANCO PEDOPHILIA? Some guy from Downton Abbey? Yes, these are the core components of Addison and Josh's conversation about the brand-brand new film from debut director, Dave Franco: The Rental! Leave a comment if you too believe Addison's comments about the name Josh are unfounded and irresponsible. --Not written by Josh
DON'T BE A MENACE/SCARY MOVIE by To Be Honest
As the 20th anniversary approaches, the boys sit down to revisit the influential 1999 film, The Matrix. Mostly Addison just drinks too much and waxes nostalgic about middle school.
The boys try something a little different, and discuss the 1993 anime classic, Ninja Scroll. They soon find out it is impossible to discuss anime without also talking about obscene violence and sexual assault. Have fun!
The boys continue their "Sexual Predator Profile Series" by tackling the very difficult subject matter that is R. Kelly. References to rape and pedophilia abound; not for the faint of heart. Skip to minute thirty if you don't want to hear that, but do want to hear Addison and Jackson discuss Leave No Trace and Ready Player One.
The boys pontificate on the most recent Louis CK controversy, in which the comedian went after survivors of the Parkland shooting, the LGBTQ community, and young people in general.
The boys "watch" the new "episode" of Black Mirror, Bandersnatch- the interactive experience of 2019. Listen or don't listen? You have fifteen seconds to make your choice, but plz choose listen plz
For the final episode of 2018, the boys settle down to discuss the year in entertainment. Thanks to those who have listened, we genuinely appreciate it! Have a happy New Year. We look forward to talking at you some more in 2019. Special thanks to Harrison Murray and Tyler McCollum. Here's the Killer Mike Netflix thing trailer if you haven't seen it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50Z4yS5AvhM
The boys settle down for one last movie this year, Alfonso Cuarón's Roma. ¿Qué pensaron ellos? Escucha y descubre!
So many hyphens. The boys go- fuck it- JUST SEE THIS MOVIE
The boys settle into another Legacy Series/Addison's Basement episode and review one of the greatest documentaries of all time, American Movie. So open up your favorite bottle of votka or peppermint schnapps, suck it down, and come along with us!
The boys VERY briefly discuss the Golden Globe announcements. Ira Glass appears courtesy of Chicago Public Radio and Public Radio International.
Come for the Widows review, stay for Joshua's amazing Obama impression.
With very special guest Harrison sitting in for Josh, the boys talk about Rockstar's latest game, Red Dead Redemption 2. Giddyup!
The boys ollie and do a kick flip over the directorial debut of Jonah Hill, Mid90s. But can they do a flipswitch 180 and meet the film on its artistic merits?
The boys go see the newest Halloween movie directed by David Gordon Green joined by a very special guest, Tyler McCollum. Tyler weaseled his way in by claiming to be a "Halloween expert;" the boys put his knowledge to the test.
The boys blast off to see the new Ryan Gosling/Damien Chazelle film, First Man. Does the film ever get off the ground, or is it a failure to launch? Sorry
The boys go see the new antihero flick, Venom. Is it the steaming pile of shit that its embarrassing 35 metascore suggests? Or does the story go deeper, and did Lady Gaga singlehandedly engineer a sinister plot to destroy it? Find out here.
Josh and Addison kick off scary movie season with the not-so-scary-but-oh-so-funny Simon Pegg classic, Shaun of the Dead. Oh yeah, Jackson isn't here because he's in California looking for puka shell necklaces.
The boys watch the new Pantones Cosmopappatoplis film, Mandy. Nic Cage wants cake appears without permission, but with sincere apprecation, courtesy of Harry Partridge.
After a long break, the boys settle in to the new screening room to watch Adaptation. But first a warning for our podcast listeners: it gets a little meta.
Bloated and cranky from the summer movie season, the boys begin part one of their profile of screenwriter Charlie Kaufman with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, or, as it was known in foreign markets, tf when no girlfriend.
Josh has to work, so Addison and Jackson get together to flap their gums about the state of gaming. Kind of. Mostly they get nostalgic about games past and wonder aloud (and often incoherently) why games cain't be the way they was.
Addison tells a boring story about meeting (and rapping with) Big Boi of Outkast, which leads to a deep and nuanced discussion of race relations and an interrogation of double consciousness. Then he talks about meeting Marc Maron in the early days of WTF. #jacksonsironlung
The boys take a field trip to the worst movie theater in Denver, the Cherry Creek AMC, to witness the new Spike Lee joint. Jackson proceeds to reinvent the art of film criticism by offering no words, only interpretive coughing.
