The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension is beloved by those bold enough to embrace a fantastical new reality, and abhorred by those aghast at this bizarre spectacle of unknown providence. It's a film as divisive as it is confusing as it is gonzo, but we've assembled a massive crew of colourful weirdos to help make sense of it all; just like Buckaroo would have wanted! I Have Some Notes welcomes David Rae and Laena Anderson from Quantum Kickflip. QK is an actual-play podcast about teen hoverboarders traveling to strange new dimensions to explore, get into trouble, and look cool doing it. Dave and Laena have two seasons worth of multiverse adventure storytelling experience, so they might be the only ones clever or crazy enough to handle the wild trip that is Buckaroo Banzai. Listen to Quantum Kickflip, including the upcoming Season 3 dropping June 4, at www.quantumkickflip.com. Follow them on Bluesky at quantumkickflip.bsky.social. The I Have Some Notes Discord Server is a great place to keep the conversation going. Let us know what you thought of our pitches and share your own thoughts on the next film we cover!

There are two forms of novel adaptations: thoughtful interpretations of the book and its themes and hack scripts stapled to a recognizable book title. Now which route do you think Netflix took for The Electric State? If you guessed the former, you must be new here. Hi! Welcome to I Have Some Notes!  No guest this week, so it's up to the classic threesome to find some kind of fix for the Russo brothers's latest streaming “blockbuster” that doesn't amount to just “do it like the book.” We get there…eventually.

If you can get past the Tom Cruise of it all the Mission Impossible series is generally quite good. Each new addition offers clever heists, death-defying stunts, and occasionally a man reloading his arms like some kind of sexy human shotgun. Also running. Lots of Tom running. Dead Reckoning: Part I, however, struggles to match the thrills of its predecessors. Its omniscient AI-run-amok plot is derivative enough to have been written by ChatGPT itself. If that weren't bad enough, it's interminably long and gets bogged down by the ego of its star. But where there's mediocrity you'll find the I Have Some Notes crew. We dive into the AI plot to make it more fun, while rearranging some of the main characters so there is less…fridging.

I Have Some Notes boldly goes to the one branch of the Star Trek franchise we've never gone before! Star Trek (2009) offers an exciting blockbuster reimagining of the classic Original Series, captained by the one and only J.J. Abrams (and thank goodness there is not more than one of him!).  Liam, Scott, and Gregg riff on ways to clean up the convoluted time travel plot, add some depth to the supporting cast, and try to put the third act back on trek…er…track.

We're back to season 10 of I Have Some Notes! It's a new season of cuts, keeps, punch-ups, and tweaks on your favourite (?) mediocre movies! It's been a while since we circled back to the Alien franchise, which is surprising considering how plagued the series is with stinkers. But we'd inevitably try to fix Ridley Scott's follow-up to Prometheus, Alien: Covenant, and here we are. Follow along with us this season on all our social media, especially Discord where we're having a blast discussing movies every week. Don't bother following us on Twitter, however, we have officially left the platform for reasons I'm sure you implicitly understand.

Josh, Alex and Bepbo are joined by Liam and Scott from I Have Some Notes to discuss and/or debate the state of superhero movies in Hollywood and with general audiences.  Please remember to check out the Decayin' with the Boys podcast, join our Discord and check out our merch store! 

Did you miss us? Cause we definitely missed you! We're stoked to be back for another season of punching up movies, although this season will be slightly different. As you know, the Writers Guild of America and the Screen Actors Guild are currently on strike due to unfair pay and poor working conditions. To show our solitary, I Have Some Notes has chosen not to promote any struck work from movie studios that are unwilling to sign a fair deal with artists. They are the lifeblood of the industry and for the countless hours of entertainment they have given us, writers and actors deserve the opportunity to earn a comfortable living. So the question is: what movies can we review? Enter The Brain That Wouldn't Die, a 1962 sci-fi/horror B-movie that just happens to be in the public domain. No fat cat executive is profiting from this one, baby! But instead of our usual punch-up routine, we decided to have some extra fun and violate our one single rule. That's right, we're doing page one rewrites! Specifically, our goal was to remake this classic for a modern audience. So grab your headphones and listen in as we repitch The Brain That Wouldn't Die! 08:53 – Plot Summary 10:27 – Movie Discussion 19:05 – Remake Pitches 01:00:12 – Listener Comments

Josh and Alex are joined by Gregg from I Have Some Notes to discuss the newest incarnation of your favorite mutant teens with attitude by reviewing TMNT: Mutant Mayhem Please remember to check out the I Hate It, Let's Watch It podcast, join our Discord and check out our merch store! 

For our season finalé, we really felt we wanted to get to the center of a science fiction film. You know, really drill down, bore out all the flaws, and mine some truly creative solutions. Additional core puns. Robin Taylor (Cinematological) joins us for the conclusion to Season 8 of I Have Some Notes aiming to rewrite 2003's THE CORE. The crew struggles a bit with this one but ultimately pitches multiple fixes including throwing an Adam-McKay-esque satirical blanket around the entire plot.  Thank you to all our listeners and Patreon supporters this season. Because of your support, the show is now completely independent and self-sustaining. This show is a blast to make, and we're so grateful to be able to keep recording into Season 9 and beyond. We'll be back in September, but if you're a Patreon supporter keep an eye out for some bonus content in July and August. Have a great summer, armchair screenwriters!

Barbarian is a very good movie and we talk about it. Okay, now on to the important stuff. For the last six years, I Have Some Notes has been privileged to be part of the Alberta Podcast Network, the brain-baby of founder Karen Unland. Karen's love for local art built a platform for so many of us to stand on and gave us the opportunity to fund our passion projects. Although the APN ended its operation in March, will be forever grateful to Karen as well as Fawnda Mithrush and Breanne Byrne for their tireless work promoting ours and so many other great Alberta-grown shows. We're also thankful to all our dedicated sponsors whose contributions were crucial to keeping the lights on. But as we say goodbye to the network, a new chapter begins for I Have Some Notes. Today we are excited to announce our show is now sponsored…by YOU! Yes, we have started a Patreon to keep the armchair screenwriting going for many seasons to come. So, if you are able, we humbly ask for a tiny sum of $4 per month. It would mean the world to us to have your support! But that's not all, we have also started a new Discord Server! Let's face it, Twitter is a tire fire and not a great place to have fun, nuanced discussions about movies. Come join us where we'll be talking about all the latest Hollywood buzz and maybe holding rewriting some movies on the fly. It'll be a great time, so come join us! Become an Armchair Screenwriter at www.patreon.com/ihavesomenotes! Join our Discord Server!

We've talked about mediocre X-Men films before, so for The New Mutants we decided to try something a little different. Returning guests and X-Men experts Robyn Slack (Quantuum Kickflip) and Olav Rokne (Unofficial Hugo Book Club Blog) face off against seasoned movie punch-up veterans Scott C. Bourgeois and Gregg Beever in an epic movie pitch battle. Liam Creswick judges this winner-take-all I Have Some Notes slugfest. What spoils await the victor? I donno, pride or something.

We're kicking off season 8 of I Have Some Notes with a killer live show fixing a famous vampiric flop. That's right, armchair screenwriters, it's Morbin' Time! Please join us on Friday, September 16th at 9 PM MDT for our season premier featuring special guest and talented screenwriter, Abdul Malik.

Cloud Atlas is an ambitious film about the ties that bind us through the passage of time. It is thoughtful and expertly edited. Does it deserve to be picked apart in the traditional I Have Some Notes fashion? Probably not. However, you suggested and voted for it, and we're not in the habit of disappointing our listeners. While there are some obvious problematic choices the Wachowskis and company make that could be very easily cleaned up, many of our other notes are more of the picking nits variety. Still, it was a great discussion about a really interesting film.

For our 101st movie fix, Cruella, because here at I Have Some Notes we allow numerical coincidence to dictate the show. In all honesty, Cruella was a pretty good time. It wasn't the least notes we've given to a film, but it was certainly close. Still, the lore of the film was hotly contested, making this a fun episode.

Gregg from I Have Some Notes joins after Evan's appearance on that show to chat about Kingsman: The Golden Circle.  Red Notice is a content delivery vessel starring The Rock, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds in an art caper / franchise starter that is now Netflix's most viewed film of all time.

We're ending our 6th season in style. Tune in this Friday, July 30th at 9PM MDT for a special LIVE broadcast of I Have Some Notes. We'll be joined by guest Stephanie Chan giving notes to Wonder Woman 1984. Catch the broadcast on our YouTube Channel or our Facebook Page.

Watching mediocre to bad movies is exhaustive work, so from time to time we believe we're entitled to treat ourselves. Birds of Prey is just a genuine blast of a film that honestly doesn't deserve a place in the cannon of I Have Some Notes, but don't worry, we still find some nits to pick.  Besides, if we didn't take on Birds of Prey we would have missed out on a glorious opportunity to have Glenna Schowalter back on the show. Together we examine all of Harley Quinn's successes, as well as some of the film's darker aspects. 

September marks the beginning of season six of I Have Some Notes. Six seasons, where does the time go? What is time? I seriously don't know anymore. Speaking of milestones, we pass 100 episodes like three shows ago and didn't even mention it. Acknowledging significant milestones is for suckers. Anyway, for the 104th episode *party streamers* we watched DUNGEONS & DRAGONS with our wonderful guest and D&D expert Glenna Schowalter. It's the kind of movie that takes gleeful pride in making all the wrong choices . None of us were interested in fixing it so much as pitching a page-one rewrite.

We asked you to send us your questions for the I Have Some Notes crew, and holy crap did you deliver! We spent this week’s episode covering topics from how COVID-19 will affect movie theatres to our favourite/most hated movies of all time to whether we regret doing The Mighty Ducks (no). Huge thanks to all our listeners who submitted questions and a special thanks to our podcasting friends Flicks X-Rayed, Repodcasting and Cinematological for sending us audio questions!

We have yet to tackle a romantic comedy here at the I Have Some Notes studios – a.k.a. Gregg's basement – and for our first rom-com punch up we decided to examine perhaps the greatest on screen couple of all time, Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, in easily their second best effort: You've Got Mail. We had a lot to say about this one, although the rewrites themselves were quick and easy. Oh, and here is a link to the Onion article Scott mentions.

The decade is over! Yes, the calendar is about to roll over to 2020, you are 10 years older than you were and have lived through another era of movies. As with the end of all eras, it's time to look back, reflect, and pointlessly rank subjective art. It's in that spirit that we present our Top 10 Films of the Decade. Liam, Gregg and Scott have carefully curated their lists and recorded celebrations of each film in exhaustive detail. This is the longest episode of I Have Some Notes yet, so strap in. Also, our friends a Flicks X-rayed, Emily Missed Out and Cinematological have sent us their top ten lists as well, filling this episode to the brim with diverse perspectives on what were the greatest movies of the past 10 years. Big thanks to our podcast buds for contributing to the episode. Alright, all that's left to do now is to pour yourself an eggnog, sit by an open fire and hit that play button. Follow along with our top ten lists below: Liam 10. Arrival (2016)9. What We Do in the Shadows (2014)8. Anomalisa (2015)7. Into the Spider-Verse (2019)6. Baby Driver (2017)5. Get Out (2018)4.

We didn't so much choose to watch Freddy vs. Jason as it was inflicted upon us. For that we have our good friend Tony from Flicks X-rayed to thank. Tony beat us fair and square (probably) in the Rotten Tomator Prognosticator and got to choose our next film, and for some reason he chose the dullest cross-over film since The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones.Best I can figure it, Tony has some kind of grudge against us.However, we like a challenge at I Have Some Notes, and we tried our level best to sharpen the knives of this dull monster mashup.

Welcome to the Mess Hall Podcast, part of the @albertapodnet powered by @atbfinancial.  This week's guest is Blake Enemark, head brewer at O.T. Brewing Company. We are talking about how he got his start in the brewing business, the process and fine tuning of making beer, and special projects! Follow these links to find out more about Ot> brewing Company.  In person:  1155E 44 AVE SECalgary, AlbertaT2G 4X4 Online: otbrewingcompany.com Facebook: @otbrewingcompany Twitter: @OTbrewing_co   This week's podcast shout out is going to I Have Some Notes.  You shuffle your way to your seat, your oversized cola sloshing precariously against its lid as you carefully navigate past an aisle of movie-goers. The seat thumps as you drop heavily into your chair, stretching out your popcorn and cola in front of you to counter balance your descent. You smile as the lights dim and the projector fires up, “I’ve been waiting for this movie for months” you sputter through a mouthful of popcorn. The opening theme rumbles “Here we go!” And… It’s not that good. Maybe it was the pacing, maybe it was a scene that needed to be deleted or added, or maybe it was Batman v Superman. “It wasn’t awful” you think to yourself as you leave the theatre “I wonder what they could’ve changed to fix it?” Glad you said that, because we’ve often wondered that ourselves. What if the Man of Steel wasn’t such a Man of Heel? What if Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull left out all the monkeys? What if Prometheus made even just the smallest bit of sense? Just a tiny bit?! Each month on I Have Some Notes self proclaimed Movie Experts™ Liam Creswick, Gregg Beever and Scott C. Bourgeois take a movie that sucked, but had potential, and put it through a vigorous podcasting notes process to try to turn it into a blockbuster. Are we always successful? Probably! With the help of dynamite guests such as Danica LeBlanc, Erin Beever, Anita Bourgeois, Cinematological, German Villegas, Brandon Schatz, Jay Runham, Adam Rozenhart, Sam Power, Andrea Beca and so many others we’ve fixed tepid movies like The Dark Knight Rises, Star Trek: Generations, Waterworld and more!

You may remember, back in March, we started a friendly wager amongst our fellow podcasters to see who could best predict the quality of 2019's summer blockbusters. "March?!" I can hear you say, "I barely remember what episode of Voyager I watched last night." Fair enough, let's remind you of the rules, the prize and who participated. Each contestant guessed the Rotten Tomatoes ratings for an agreed upon list of summer blockbuster movies. Scores were determined by the difference between the guess and the final score of each movie. For example, I guessed Avengers: Endgame would land at 84% and its actual Rotten Tomatoes rating was 94%, so my score was 10. Today we tally all the scores to find out who amongst fellow podcasters from the PS2J Show, Flicks X-rayed, Modern Manhood, Emily Missed Out and Repodcasting podcasts. The person with the lowest total win and gets to select a movie the losers must watch and either live Tweet, or record an episode on.  I'm burying the lead here, but we've two special guests turned up for the Rotten Tomator Prognosticator Finale. Our beloved former Colin is back (already!) to talk about why he guessed so bad. We also have Tony from the Flicks X-rayed podcast, the lone non-I Have Some Notes member. Hmmm…wonder why he would be here. Welp, guess you'll have to listen to find out! You can see all the final score RIGHT HERE!

Last month Colin retired as host of I Have Some Notes, so we decided for our bonus Side Notes episode we would salute the man who's given us so many laughs over these past three years. With that, we give you the very BEST of Colin MacIntyre. Thanks for everything buddy, we love ya! Our break is nearly over and season five is just around the corner, so stay tuned to our Twitter and Facebook feeds to get your notes in for the upcoming season premiere!        

The Green Lantern has got Blake Lively in it and not much else. We're used to watching some colourless DC comic book movies around here, but Green Lantern might be the drabbest. However, the blander the script the greater the challenge, Right? And we've got Edmonton comedian Liam Creswick aboard to light the blackest screenwriting. This episode is bittersweet for us, as it is Colin's swan song as host of the show. As a founding member of I Have Some Notes, Colin helped shape our movie fixing podcast into the hilarious, insightful show it is today. I've always felt Colin's positive energy and brilliant sense of humour set the tone for the show, and probably prevented Scott and I from downing ourselves in the obsessively nerdy details.  We wish Colin and his wife Crystal all the best as their family expands by one more. The show must go on, but there is only one Colin MacIntyre. Thanks for everything buddy, we'll see you again soon, because you are now top of our guest list.

The White House is being attacked by North Korean terrorists who are setting the monument ablaze. You're probably thinking "good, let it burn", but this script is pre-2016, back when it was occupied by someone worthy of respect and you might have cheered Gerard Butler on save it. And save it he does, in the blandest, most mind-numbingly average way possible. But not to worry, Colin, Gregg and Scott hold cabinet positions in the Department of Movie Fixing. We do a White House tear Down and raise the I Have Some Notes flag over top the house we rebuilt in its place.

Sigh, Ghostbusters was back in the news last month and once again it was for all the wrong reasons as Jason Reitman bungled the roll out of his entry into the franchise. Luckily Danica LeBlanc and Anita Bourgeois stopped by to help us work through our exhausted frustrations.This episode also marks an I Have Some Notes first, Gregg is sitting in the host chair. Don't worry, he felt just as uncomfortable with it as you do. Colin will be back in two weeks, so you can relax.

Once upon a time, movie studios saw Jean-Claude Van Damme as an action star they could build a big budget action blockbuster around. Studios would say, "Hey, let's rent out the Pittsburg Penguins' arena and drop a helicopter onto a hockey rink…and Van Damme will be there!" Now, in 1995, you might be forgiven for thinking Die Hard + Van Damme + Luc Robitaille = boxing office gold, but today they take away your producer hat and give it to someone who wants to make Batman…again. However, we at I Have Some Notes believe we've come up with some script tweaks that would get Van Damme's arena romp a green light, even today! This episode's guest is the glorious leader of the Church of Moving Picture himself, Robin Taylor. Check out his video series, Cinematological! But do that after listening to us.

No. But, hey, if you want the long form discussion, it's actually pretty fun and interesting. Plus, Danica Leblanc is back, fresh off (or fresh before, as it turned out) her turn as host of I Have Some Notes. Sorry this episode is late, but sometimes life is the movie that ruined your childhood. I know that didn't make sense, I'm so very tired. Just listen to the show and we'll see you all again in two weeks.

Welcome to the Mess Hall Podcast, part of the @albertapodnet powered by @atbfinancial.    This week's guest is Daryl Makk. It was a fun outdoor adventure. We sat down lake side and a had a terrific chat. If you ever get a chance, go see Daryl live; he is a blast.  Check him out online http://www.darylmakk.com.  I like this clip by Daryl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YM6zkHPfiyU This weeks podcast shout out is to I Have Some Notes. This is a good podcast where hosts Colin MacIntyre, Gregg Beever and Scott Bourgeois are PUNCHING UP MEDIOCRE MOVIES ONE PODCAST AT A TIME. Check out thier site http://ihavesomenotes.com/?utm_source=Publicate&utm_medium=embed&utm_content=I+Have+Some+Notes+-+Punching+up+mediocre+movies+one+podcast+at+a+time&utm_campaign=Member+podcasts+-+NEW 

When film franchises hit critical mass in popularity they often start to endlessly spawn spinoff novels, cartoons, TV series and comic books. For the hardcore fan it can be a mess figuring out what in all these spinoffs counts as canon – that is, what is officially part of the franchise's larger story. Is it worth it? Does what counts as canon really matter? Perhaps Evan Adnams can tell us. After all, he's a part of the I Have Some Notes canon, until our inevitable reboot, anyway. He joins Scott and Gregg to ponder whether story canon really matters and how it affects our enjoyment of a film.

Fast cars and gravelly dialogue, eventually we were going to get to a Fast and Furious movie, it was inevitable. In true I Have Some Notes we chose the most mediocre Fast film of them all, Fate of the Furious. We tear down the latest installment of Vin Diesel's big-car-go-vroom epic to the nuts and bolts and rebuild the engine with some new motivations and elevated under used characters. Social media consultant (to the stars) Beverley Theresa joins the family for our penultimate episode of season 3. Ride or die.

Cutthroat Island may have been a record setting flop its director and star didn't want to be a part of, but…I can't think of a positive way to end this sentence. Yes, Cutthroat Island, the 90s action pirate movie high on explosions but low on "pirate-ness". It's the kind of painfully mediocre film made for us to sink our cutlasses into. Join the I Have Some Notes crew and guest Alyssa Nider as we stab deep into the heart of Gina Davis and Renny Harlin's first and last swash buckling blockbuster.

1995's Congo may be the quintessential case of the book being better than the movie, we basically had a glossy of ready made fixes. Don't worry, our final solution for Congo went well beyond Michael Crichton's novel, the episode didn't turn into a book report. Not entirely, anyway. Comedian Liam Creswick joins us for his 3rd expedition on the show to discuss lasers, talking apes and the under use of Bruce Campbell. I Have Some Notes is part of the Alberta Podcast Network crew, powered by ATB.

Colin, Gregg and Scott dig deep and discover Guillermo del Toro's  Pacific Rim was a secret sequel to Independence Day. It's true. That's the kind of movie sleuthing you can expect from I Have Some Notes, the Sherlocks on Blockbusters they call us. Of course, we also get into tweaking and punching up this monster smash, deleting some characters, amplifying others. I Have Some Notes is part of the Alberta Podcast Network powered by ATB.

Next month Marvel will culminate a decade's worth of super hero movies with their biggest team up yet, which makes us wonder if super hero movies about to peak or are there an infinite (get it?) number of films yet to come? Colin, Gregg, Scott and guest Erin Beever ruminate on the history of capes on film and prognosticate what comes next for a seemingly unstoppable pop-culture juggernaut. Will audiences tire as Marvel enters phase four, five or possibly six? Join us as we give definitive answers like "Maybe!", "Possibly!" and "Perhaps!" As always, I Have Some Notes is a member of the Alberta Podcast Network powered by ATB. ATB: it's like a bank for your money!

Our Christmas episode comes but once a year, so pour yourself an eggnog, cozy up to the fire and listen to the I Have Some Notes crew pick apart your third or possibly fourth favourite Die Hard film, Die Hard 2. For Gregg and Erin this was a tough film to tackle because they actually quite like it. Scott, on the other hand, felt the movie didn't Die nearly Harder enough. As Colin is so fond of saying, conflict makes great radio, and arguing the merits of a decades old sequel is exactly the kind of thing we call fun. Enjoy filling your earholes with Die Hard, have a fun and safe holiday season, and we'll see you all again in the new year.

German Villegas from Modern Manhood returns to take on the macho cultural touchstone that is Top Gun. We attempt to find a better way for Tom Cruise to graduate from flight school, hopefully without being smarmy, grinning douche. Gregg and Scott are also on the flight deck, while up in the control tower resuming his hosting duties is Colin "Grouse" MacIntyre! Can Top Gun be Top Fun? These and other terrible jokes this week on I Have Some Notes, members of the Alberta Podcast Network powered by ATB.

The wait is over. I Have Some Notes is back for its 3rd season of movie improving and we're returning with a series of firsts for the show. The first first is our first Bond film: Moonraker. Yes, the Bond movie that never heard the phrase "less is more." Italian murder caskets? Sure. Super boats? Two please. Space? You bet your ass! Second on the list of firsts is no Colin. Mr. MacIntyre is off being a new daddy and will miss a few episodes, but the talented Scott C. Bourgeois has volunteered to sit in his chair and keep it warm. The last, but probably most important first is that this is our first episode as a member of the Alberta Podcast Network powered by ATB Financial. We're stoked to be joining the Network and its fleet of amazing shows sailing through the digital airwaves. Big thanks to Karen Unland for all her hard work putting the network together and helping to make our passion project more sustainable. Alright, enough preamble. Please join Scott, Gregg, Anita and the hilarious Liam Creswick in fixing James Bond: The Moonrakening!

It's the season finalé of I Have Some Notes! Don't worry, we're not leaving you for the summer without giving you something a little something extra special, we're fixing Tom Cruise's The Mummy! Okay, okay, so that in and of itself is not particularly special. What is special is that this time Colin, Gregg, Scott and Mark tried to fix the film IMMEDIATELY after watching it in the theatre. No note taking, no chewing on the film for a few days, no deep movie meditation, no nothing! It's all strictly off the cuff for our season finalé. We hope you enjoy it, and we'll see you again soon in the fall.

Of the many praises we can shower on the Alien movies, Alien 3 is certainly the one with the highest shaved head count. Colin and Gregg are joined by now I Have Some Notes regulars Scott C. Bourgeois and Erin Beever talk about the thirdest movie in the Alien series. They discuss the plight of young up-and-coming directors; Ripley boning down with Tywin Lannister; saving Newt and Corporal Hicks, smelty smazes and turning Alien into a heist movie.

This week Dan and Chelsea are joined by the podcast duo of Gregg Beever and Colin MacIntyre from I Have Some Notes. Each month on I Have Some Notes self proclaimed Movie Experts™ Colin MacIntyre (The Long John Index, Making Whoopee) and Gregg Beever (Inglorious Hipsters) take a movie that sucked, but had potential, and put it through a vigorous podcasting notes process to try to turn it into a blockbuster. Are we always successful? No. Do we always try? Depends how many beers we’ve had. http://ihavesomenotes.com/ https://www.facebook.com/IHaveSomeNotes/?fref=ts https://twitter.com/IHaveSomeNotes

In this episode of of Side Notes the boys who note talk about what they've been watching since 2016 came to a merciful end. Colin & Gregg discuss Oliver Stone's The Untold History of the United States, Hardcore Henry, Before the Flood, Love Actually, Logan, Colossal, Rogue One, Dirk Gently and more. They also tee up the next full episode of I Have Some Notes.

I Have Some Notes returns for Season Two…sort of! While this a "Side Notes" episode, the mini episodes will now be a permanent feature of the show used to tee up our next full episode, as well as chat about what we've been watching and the movie world at large. That means you the listener will be getting two episodes of I Have Some Notes a month instead of one. That's like *counts fingers and toes* like double the amount of episodes! In this mini-episode Colin and Gregg talk about some tweaks to the show format and get you ready for our next episode: I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, the "classic" 90s slasher flick. Erin Beever and Mark Jowett also join the crew to discuss Pokemon Go, the Vatican, Battlestar Galactica, TV watching habits and a weird Jake Gyllenhaal movie with a bonkers concept.

We're going away for a while. Colin is getting married and Gregg is off to Italy with his wife and frequent podcast guest Erin. So, in light of that, we've got another Side Notes episode to tide you over until season 2 gets started. This episode features some previously edited bits from our Star Trek: Generations episode in white Sam Power professes her love for Star Trek: The Motion Picture and asked the poignant question…is Riker the hottest? We'll see you hopefully near the end of October for season 2 of I Have Some Notes.

Have you every had the burning desire to listen to four 30-somethings sing the theme to 80s television sensation, The A-Team, over and over and over again? Well, you're in luck, because episode five of I HAVE SOME NOTES has arrived! Sally Poulsen and Jeff Samsonow of the Edmonton Media Co. stop by to discuss the remake to end all remakes (not really), the 2010 hit film ("hit" should have quotation marks) THE A-TEAM.

Welcome to the Genisys…of a new episode of I Have Some Notes. This week we look at the time-travel-palooza that is Terminator: Sega Genisys. Our guests this week are the avowed Terminator fan Evan Adnams and the wonderful Erin Beever. Together we explore the plight of the working class Terminator, murder fences, Etch-a-Sketch monsters and so much more. As always, if you have any notes for us, leave them in the comments or Tweet us (@ihavesomenotes) or catch us on Facebook.

Meet Jess Holt, the wry wit and graphic designer by trade who offers a raw, insightful look at life as the mother of twins on Grace and Champ. Jess started the blog as a way to connect with adults after emerging from the first-year fog of somewhat unexpected parenthood, multiplied by 2. “I didn’t want it to be just about parenting, but it turns out that’s all I do,” she says. You don’t get tips from Jess, nor do you get a candy-coated celebration of the joys of motherhood. You get candour, which brings with it reassurance that raising kids is stressful and crazy-making, and all you can do is your best, which is good enough. We talk about shutting down unsolicited advice, the heebie-jeebieness of the term “mommy blogger,” and the feeling of being outnumbered, among other things.  Jess recommended these local blogs and podcasts: Raising Edmonton, Lori Godin’s compendium of things to do with your kids; The Momoirs, Hannah Hamilton’s unvarnished truth about parenting; The Undad, Trent Wilkie’s blog about raising one (and soon two) kids; I Have Some Notes, the new podcast from Colin MacIntyre and Gregg Beever on how to fix a bad movie. You can follow Grace and Champ on Twitter and on Facebook.  

Time is the fire in which we burn…for our second episode of I Have Some Notes! In episode 2 we take on the wonderfully flawed Star Trek: Generations, a movie that disappointed a generations of Trek fans. Good news Trekkies, we're hear to help fix this film with two amazing guests in Samantha Power and Adam Rozenhart from CJSR's All Intensive Purposes! We review in what way Generations was compared to 2001: A Space Odyssey, why the movie needs more Duras sisters, and whether Kirk's dynamite breakfast recipe can really smooth over dumping your girlfriend or boyfriend.

Welcome to the first episode of I Have Some Notes, the podcast that attempts to fix flawed, but salvageable films. This month's episode examines Zach Synder's Man of Steel. Host Colin MacIntyre and co-host Gregg Beever are joined by Edmonton entertainment news magnate Jay Runham and the heir to the Cornish Throne, Mark Jowett. The foursome discuss where Man of Steel went wrong (somewhere around "I've had a child Zod, a boy child"), share notes on how to fix it and ruminate on an alternative cast. Thanks for listening! If you enjoy the show, share it with your friends.
