For the final installment of Doom Month (and the final episode of the show (for now at least)), Danielle and Fernanda climb into their surprisingly comfortable jumpsuits and take a contract with some company called Weyland-Yutani, which wants them to reexamine Ridley Scott's seminal 1979 sci-fi horror classic, Alien.

For our first proper installment of Nice Try July, Fernanda and Danielle revisit the madness of the mid-90s with Beanie Mania, a 2021 documentary from HBO Max and director Yemisi Brookes. Does Danielle regret not getting in on the craze when she had the chance in high-school? How does all this seem to Fernanda, who grew up in the Beanie-less country of Brazil? Was this brief phenomenon in American culture and more or less stupid than any of the other ones? Is everything, in fact, stupid?? Find out!

Due to a bout of covid, we weren't able to record a new episode of You Love To See It this week. But don't fret, as we have a "treat" for you, on today, America's birthday (which is also very close to Fanbyte Head of Media John Warren's birthday, which relates to this episode). We have a very special re-run, all the way back from July 2020, when John made a bunch of us watch Larry Crowne with him, a truly inexplicable movie that has only grown in our brains (sort of like a fungus) ever since. Join us, alongside Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, and other genuinely talented people who were involved with... this movie, as we try to understand the Hollywood puzzle that is Larry Crowne!

We're wrapping up Join Us June with a movie that Fernanda's husband Rodrigo would've never forgiven us for if we didn't include it: The Master by Director Paul Thomas Anderson. And we're joined by our friend Alexander Lee (MMA Fighting) to try and make sense of it all. Including one of Phillip Seymour Hoffman's final performances (RIP to a real one), The Master is loosely based (allegedly) on the life of L. Ron Hubbard. It also features another breakout performance by the one and only Joaquin Phoenix. Get comfy, folks. This is quite the rich text. Send us an email at YLTSI@fanbyte.com!

Join Us June continues with 2019's Midsommar and we're joined by our friend Stacie Ponder from The Gaylords of Darkness Podcast! From director Ari Aster, Midsommar tells the tale of a group of “friends” who decide to travel to visit a small commune in Sweden where a special ceremony is taking place that only happens every 90 years. But this small Swedish countryside may have a different definition of “breathtaking views.” As Hårga takes, so Hårga also gives. Listen to Stacie's podcast: The Gaylords of Darkness!

It's officially Join Us June here at YLTSI which means we're taking a look at movies that feature the dark and fascinating world of cults. 2019's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood features another Quentin Tarantino-directed alternate history that explores a fictional version of events that led to some of Charles Mansion's followers carrying out a series of violent murders. But does it deliver a faithful depiction of these very real life figures? Or is it doomed to hitch a ride to the nearest dump? Más Fanbyte: Follow Fernanda & Danielle on Twitter! Send us an email!

This week, we're ditching Payday May for a more multiversal payday with 2022's Everything Everywhere All At Once. A movie that producer Paul has been fighting tooth and riot shield for Fernanda and Danielle to see and somehow we found the right jump pad.

That's right. We're going back to Gotham and this time we're reviewing Joel Schumacher's Batman & Robin. A movie that saw its top billing star, Arnold Schwarzenegger, walk away with $25 million while his co-star, who played the titular Batman, got $1 million in comparison. The film is still widely regarded as the worst Batman movie ever and that's even if we're counting 2016's Batman vs Superman. But does it deserve all of that hate? Or is it doomed to be misunderstood forever? Más Fanbyte: Send us an email! Follow Fernanda, Danielle, and Paul!

We flipped the script on Payday May to show the other side of those huge Hollywood payouts. Since we couldn't find any examples of women of color making these kinds of checks, we're looking at someone who's been a champion for pay equity in the industry: Viola Davis in 2018's Widows. Directed by Steve McQueen, Widows tells the story of a group of women who all lose their significant others in a robbery gone wrong and are left behind to pick up the pieces in a storm of crime and corruption.

We're ending Jeanuary with what might be one of JCVD's most memorable performances in 2008's JCVD. Directed by Mabrouk El Mechri, Van Damme plays himself as he struggles with life as a fading international action star drowning in legal debt, who not only happens to find himself in the middle of an armed robbery, but in the sights of the police who believe him to be the mastermind behind it all.

Jeanuary reaches its peak with 1995's Hard Target. Directed by NONE OTHER than John Woo, Van Damme plays Chance Beudreax, a mulleted New Orleans local who decides to help out a woman in search of her missing father. What they unravel is a sadistic game being played by the rich, but there's only one former special forces soldier, who traded in his fatigues for a Canadian tuxedo, can put an end to it all.

We're closing out the year and Pop Holidiva Month with the movie that YOU the listener voted for in our Discord: Romeo Must Die (2000). The absurd, yet somehow, perfect blend of over-the-top wire-based martial arts scenes, hip-hop, and Shakespeare- Romeo Must Die tells the story of two similar souls who cross paths who also happen to be members of warring crime families.

Continuing Pop Holidiva Month, we're watching Desperately Seeking Susan featuring the great Madonna. This 1985 American comedy-drama movie, directed by Susan Seidelman, stars Madonna and Rosanna Arquette and revolves around the intersection of the lives of a free spirit and a bored housewife in 80's New York City. Find out how it holds up and more importantly, the far superior alternate ending that got scrapped in favor of a tidier Hollywood finale.

Happy Pop Holidiva Month continues with Tina Turner's scene-stealing performance in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.

We're ringing in Pop Holidiva Month with Whitney Houston's debut role in The Bodyguard. This 1992 flick also stars the mom-approved Kevin Costner as the titular bodyguard who gets hired to protect rising superstar Rachel Marron (Houston) as she faces the very real life threat of an obsessed fan and the risk of falling in love with the man hired to protect her. Look, it was the early 90's ok? Más Fanbyte: Fanbyte Podcast Network (We have other channels with equally incredible shows. We promise.) Follow us on Twitter (Yell at us on Twitter in good ways.)

Closing out Janksgiving, we've got the clunkiest of all clunkers: Wild Wild West. The movie that Will Smith famously chose to do instead of The Matrix which to be fair, didn't have Sisqo featured on the title track so... Tune in to hear Fernanda and Danielle dissect this particularly odd steampunk trainwreck that had all of the right ingredients on paper, but just failed to come together in any real ways outside of some sweet set dressing.

We finally opened up our little video rental shop that's totally above board and legit, we promise. This entire month at the shop is Janksgiving where we're handing you only the stalest, jankiest, and not-so-perfect movies that maybe deserve another look. This week, we're taking a look at 1996's Striptease starring Demi Moore, Burt Reynolds, Armand Assante, and Ving Rhames. Directed by Andrew Bergman, the movie shattered records (at the time) with Moore taking quite the pay day that sparked a lot of heated discourse at the time. Find out whether it deserves a spot on our coveted must-watch shelf, if it's destined for the dreaded middle aisle where no one goes or if it just winds up in the dumpster out back.
