John Travolta returns as sweaty strutting disco stud Tony Manero in this misguided sequel to Saturday Night Fever co-written and directed by… Sylvester Stallone? Tony makes a brazen leap from Brooklyn to Bizarro World Broadway (and from the '70s to the '80s) but soon finds himself not in a love triangle, but a love pentagon as he vies for the lead role in a dizzyingly demented Dante-meets-disco dance revue provocatively titled Satan's Alley (not to be confused with Tropic Thunder's monks-in-forbidden-love fake film). Javi, Paul and - divinely - Producer Brad embark on their most chaotic episode yet as they are relentlessly pummeled with headbands, leotards, lens flares, slow-mo, possible vampires, and the very apotheosis of The Frank Factor as director Stallone tries to turn this film into a career catapult for his brother to outshine the Bee Gees (who apparently didn't appreciate this). In the immortal words of the film, “It's a journey through hell that ends in an ascent to heaven. You might think it's simple, but if it's gonna work you gotta bust your asses!” And we did, so you don't have to. Let's strut!Show Notes:As Paul mentioned, Dennon and Sayhber, the choreographers for Staying Alive, offer classes. Here's the link to their site where you can sign up for dance classes. We can't believe we forgot to discuss the trailer for Satan's Alley, the fake movie from the movie Tropic Thunder!

You'll believe a man can sigh as Supergeeks Javi, Paul and - indestructibly - Producer Brad discover the third time's not the charm with Superman III, though it does offer one unforgettable high-concept scene (and a truly funny setup and payoff). Our hosts boldly bend format this episode by picking three scenes each to examine (one of which may or may not involve bowling vandalism via Super-sneeze) as they struggle to maintain their sanity against the artificial Kryptonite of this threequel's seemingly never-ending inanities. In stark contrast to the wonders that Rocky III rewarded us with by adding iconic adversary Mr. T (as recounted in our very first episode!), here we get Superman vs. Supercomputer (that's an Atari) as programming prodigy Richard Pryor is extorted into villainy by evil tycoon Robert Vaughn. Despite their combined talents (and a psychic nutritionist stand-in for Miss Teschmacher), they are no Lex Luthor, just as director Richard Lester is no Richard Donner (and composer Ken Thorne is no John Williams). Still, while Margot Kidder's Lois Lane is conspicuously sidelined for most of the film, we're treated to Annette O'Toole's lovely Lana Lang, and Christopher Reeve gets to play a creepy, scuzzy new character (Man of Heel?). You will not believe a man can ski off a skyscraper and survive, but you will enjoy this episode full of love for Superman and our hosts' entertaining exasperation at this misguided misfire. 1983 Box OfficeJuly 8, 1983 Weekend Box OfficeSuperman III Box Office ResultsRichard Pryor's 1981 appearance on The Tonight Show displaying his Superman fandom.Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

When Paul, Javi, and the audacious Producer Brad see a great movie, the result is a podcast full of mirthful entertainment… but when it's a movie that crashes and burns, the result is UNMITIGATED SNARK GREATNESS. What happens when Burt Reynolds and Hal Needham, the star and director of the hit films “Smokey and the Bandit” and “Cannonball Run”, reunite for a putative romantic comedy about a deviant NASCAR driver and a church lady turned fried chicken chain ad exec? Our horrified hosts weave a wonderment of wordplay, yet still somehow manage to run out words for “atrocity.” Loni Anderson, Jim Nabors, Ned Beatty, Parker Stevenson and Bubba Smith were all somehow forced to do time in this carceral excruciation of a film - and the Multiplex Overthruster crew has nothing but elucidating empathy as they perform a much-needed autopsy of one of the low points of the Summer of '83: “Stroker Ace”! Trust us, this episode is worth it for its odes to Cassandra Peterson's captivating cameo and how an AVOD ad break can offer an unexpected oasis of comfort — plus don't miss a startling post-credit bonus revelation!1983 Box OfficeJuly 1, 1983 Weekend Box OfficeSuperman III Box Office ResultsFollow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

On today’s check-in, the Jubal Show crew proves once again that life is always weirder than fiction. Nina kicks it off with a wild story of surgically removing a friend’s skin tag with a TikTok tool—and yes, champagne was involved. Victoria then confesses to giving her number to a guy who lingered in a Costco parking lot way too long, and Producer Brad (and everyone else) has questions. Meanwhile, Jubal reveals why his cleaning crew might think he’s completely lost it… and it has everything to do with loudly yelling at his robot vacuums, Jeremy and Todd. Plus, a complicated dad joke that leaves everyone scratching their heads. This might be the most unhinged group therapy session disguised as a radio segment you’ll hear all week.

What happens when screen legends Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche play obscenely wealthy commodities brokers who wager on an insidious, impromptu nature-vs.-nurture experiment that subjects an unwitting Eddie Murphy and Dan Ackroyd to radical reversals of fortune? You get an '80s screwball comedy update of The Prince and the Pauper that also showcases the great Jamie Lee Curtis and Denholm Elliott, along with a host of amusing cameos by the likes of Al Franken, Bo Diddley, and Giancarlo Esposito, all set to an Elmer Bernstein score built on the shoulders of Mozart. And it's a Christmas movie! (Kind of.) Join Javi, Paul and - inscrutably - Producer Brad as they learn more than they ever wanted to about pork belly and concentrated frozen orange juice futures trading, navigate the film's alarmingly casual racism and homophobia (not to mention a painful bit involving a gorilla), and behold the biggest smoked salmon ever to grace the silver screen.

In this emotionally charged and hilariously unpredictable episode of The Jubal Show, the crew gets real and ridiculous in equal measure. Nina opens up about her Persian heritage and the emotional toll of the escalating conflict in Iran, sharing how it’s been affecting her on-air focus and daily life. Victoria tries to navigate her own chaos, battling a mysterious case of the jitters, while Gabby shares a slice of suburban life with a persistent pie-baking neighbor. Producer Brad celebrates his daughter’s 5th-grade graduation with a classic dad joke, and Jubal has everyone laughing (and cringing) with a painfully awkward gym story that involves unwanted attention, lip bites, and… neck workouts? The cast includes: Jubal – your fearless host Nina – your candid and caring drunk aunt Victoria – your lovable younger sister with unpredictable energy Gabby – your quirky neighbor and social producer Brad – your dad-joke-slinging producer This episode has heart, humor, and humanity. From global reflection to gym tension, it's a reminder that life—and radio—is all about finding the funny, even in the mess.
What happens when you put the director of Saturday Night Fever together with the star of All That Jazz? Sadly, it's Blue Thunder. No it's not Tropic Thunder, and it's not Thunder From Down Under. It's Blue Thunder. What is Blue Thunder? A depressed meteorological phenomenon? Nope, it's a weaponized high tech surveillance helicopter that could be out there right now, surveilling you with weaponized high tech or something. It could have been a paranoid thriller from the 70s - a timely warning about the danger of blurring the line between the police and the military… but mostly it's about the heights of exasperation that ensue when one of our hosts can't tell the difference between a Trans Am and a Camaro, and another reveals himself to be “Team Airwolf” at an inopportune time. Join Paul, Javi, and the increasingly high tech and weaponized Producer Brad as their attempts to make sense of Blue Thunder become a far more entertaining experience than actually watching Blue Thunder! So strap in, throttle up, and prepare for some high tech snarkilicious goodness from your weaponized, high tech pals at Multiplex Overthruster!Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

For decades, Javi has maintained that Octopussy is a vastly underrated and quite entertaining entry into the James Bond oeuvre… now listen as this belief crashes in a malestrom of flaming regret as Paul and the ever patient and understanding Producer Brad bear witness to the end of one of Javi's most cherished delusions! Octopussy may have been billed as “James Bond's all time action high” but in this clear-eyed rewatch, the Multiplex Overthruster crew finds that surviving the experience of watching Octopussy may be as lethal, if not much more lethal, than James Bond's travails as he tries to stop some rich bad guy from doing some awful things with a strange macguffin for no discernible reason… also there's a woman with a really awkward nickname. On the plus column, there is a buzzsaw-yoyo wielding assassin, and a cool mini jet… which we wish we could have used to escape from this film! It's Multiplex Overthruster's all-time snark high as they enter the world of high stakes international espionage and emerge changed, but not entertained!Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

SHALL WE PLAY A GAME? The Multiplex Overthruster crew has faced many dangers - wrathful space dictators, power-hungry fantasy wizards, horny suburban teenagers - but now they face their greatest challenge! Is it the artificial intelligence playing the titular War Games? Is it the military industrial complex that kept them in fear of the mushroom cloud for their entire childhoods… well, yes, it's those things but it's also (dun-dun-dun) NOSTALGIA! Marvel as Javi rediscovers his love for a pre-internet world that has long passed us by, thrill as Paul negotiates a much-needed social media detente with Javi, and wince as the long-suffering Producer Brad fights the never-ending battle to keep them on point! Is it Global Thermonuclear War, or is it… WAR GAMES? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Grand Guignol of Geekery that is Paul, Javi, and - exasperatedly - Producer Brad's deep dive into the final chapter of the first STAR WARS trilogy reaches its apotheotic conclusion in this, the second part of the first episode of our second season! Thrill as the intrepid Multiplex Overthruster crew braves not just the narrative wilds of one of the most anticipated movies of their childhood, but also the many decades of memories, opinions, and late night discussions of the saga that has defined popular culture for most of their lives! Marvel at Javi's analysis of his misguided disdain for a movie he now realizes he loved all along! Witness in wild wonder as Paul's gift for superlatives gets a workout for the ages! It's a season premiere that will go down in Multiplex Overthruster lore - it's RETURN OF THE JEDI!Follow us!Instagram Bluesky email: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to our first ever holiday special! Having traversed the Summer of '82, Javi, Paul and Producer Brad are back at the multiplex to witness the whirlwind of wonders that is Jim Henson's phantasmagoric puppetpalooza THE DARK CRYSTAL. Audiences young and old were both captivated and confounded by the strange spectacle of this creepy creature feature inexplicably intruding upon their holiday season (who on earth thought it was a good idea to release it on Dec. 17?), but its meticulous magnificence cannot be denied! Join us as we soak in the cinematic sorcery conjured by Jim Henson, Frank Oz, illustrator extraordinaire Brian Froud, and Star Wars producer Gary Kurtz. And this episode is special in more ways than one, as Javi shares his amazing experience working on the film's Emmy-winning prequel series he helped write and produce, THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE.Follow us!Instagram Bluesky email: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

At long last, the Summer of '83 is here, and kicks off with the most anticipated sequel of the decade, RETURN OF THE JEDI! And since this is probably the only STAR WARS film we'll ever get to in this podcast, it demands our first ever (and likely last) two-part episode! Buckle up as Javi, Paul and - graciously - Producer Brad dive deeper than they've ever dived before (what, you thought we couldn't go deeper than STAR TREK II?) to discuss with dizzying delight the original May 25, 1983 theatrical version (Lapti Nek! Yub Nub!) of the triumphant finale of the STAR WARS trilogy for our gloriously geektacular second season premiere.Follow us!Instagram Bluesky email: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to our first ever spring special! As we approach the Summer of '83, Javi, Paul and Producer Brad dive into Tony Scott's extravagantly evocative and super stylish goth-punk erotic vampire thriller THE HUNGER, starring the gobsmackingly great-looking Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, and Susan Sarandon. Mod music video and commercial aesthetics collide with neo-noir cinema like never before in this creepy cool treasure trove of a time capsule set in '80s NYC where vampires are real, but very different than any you've seen before. Moviegoers on April 29, 1983, were simply not ready for it, but late night cable viewers and adventurous VHS renters soon would be. You don't want to sleep on this one, especially as we examine the film in context and contrast to other standout vampire fare such as LET THE RIGHT ONE IN and SINNERS.Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In the world of international espionage and Cold War intrigue there is no agent more secret than… The Soldier. This may perhaps be explained by the utter failure of this forgotten film. In this scintillating episode, a confounded Paul, Javi, and - serenely - Producer Brad investigate the first and only adventure of a would-be American James Bond in a desperate mission to uncover an international nuclear plot of international peculiar people hellbent on doing international terrible things. Sigh. It's not a good movie, or even a coherent travelogue, but it's possibly our funniest episode, and also among our shortest! (Though not quite as short as crazed Klaus Kinski's confounding cameo as a sinister snow bunny assassin.)Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

All great institutions bestow awards… and now so does Multiplex Overthruster! It's our first ever Multi Awards episode, in which Paul, Javi, and - mercifully - Producer Brad run down the nominees and winners from all of the films they watched during this most august of summer movie summers. In addition to naming their Best Picture, Director, Screenplay - and so on and so on - Producer Brad has also compiled a list of superlatives (“best character introduction of all time!”) and revisits them with the benefit of hindsight to see which stood the test of time! Will Javi stand by that thing he said about Captain Morgan in “The Sword and the Sorcerer”? We won't spoil it here. Trust us, you don't want to miss the first ever Multi Awards!

The 1980s was not only a time of genre excellence, but also one of romantic comedies about surly tone-deaf white men and their indefatigable struggle to remain that way. To this semi golden age of toxic masculinity, we consign “Paul Mazursky's Tempest,” in which an otherwise sensitive and big-hearted filmmaker somehow marshals the talents of John Cassavetes, Gena Rowlands, Susan Sarandon, Raul Julia, and (in her big screen debut) Molly Ringwald, to deliver some of the least likable characters in screen history. And it's (vaguely) based on Shakespeare's “The Tempest”, which only leaves Paul, Javi, and - indubitably - Producer Brad filling the much needed void with some of the finest comedy commentary of their careers!Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Behold! Paul, Javi, and - majestically - Producer Brad brave yet another sword-and-sorcery spectacular-ish in this story of a warrior on a quest to find… honestly, it's hard to remember, but it definitely had something to do with a weird angry guy (Rip Torn) in a strange place with a thing. And some sort of large roasted animal leg. Oh yes, and the warrior not only has a big sword, tiny loincloth, and major sixpack, he can somehow also talk to animals. Mostly ferrets. He also talks to Tanya Roberts, in an apotheotic bid for 1980s genre queen status. And as if that weren't enough, don't miss the shocking revelation of how Paul was once traumatized by ferrets belonging to an unnamed Oscar-winning director. It's epic-ish battles, dazzling-ish magic, and yes, ferrets… it's The Beastmaster!Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

For the balance of the summer Paul, Javi, and - fearlessly - Producer Brad have braved one unbelievable movie premise after another: humanoid androids, murderous artificial intelligences, vengeful genetically engineered intergalactic dictators, the wastelands of the post-apocalypse, barbarian mercenaries with jet-powered swords… even singing sex workers have shown themselves to be no match for their laser-like analytical focus. But on the sixteenth weekend of the summer, our podcasters may have met their match with Amy Heckerling's film of Cameron Crowe's chronicle of 1980's high school shenanigans “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”. What happens when three dyed-in-the-wool geeks face the unthinkable: sexually active high schoolers with no interest in genre films, TV, or comic books? Marvel as the intrepid Multipex Overthruster crew struggles to make sense of something so far out of their reality that they are frequently rendered speechless and without the capacity for rational thought! It's the ultimately challenge - will the crew survive? There's only one way to find out!
After two perilous weeks of comedies about sex workers, Paul, Javi, and - inescapably - Producer Brad find themselves in more familiar territory with The Sword and the Sorcerer. It's peak '80s as the stars of both Matt Houston and Manimal cross swords and… uh, sorcery?… in this incredibly diverting low budget bacchanal of wizardry and bloodshed. Forget Conan The Barbarian, Prince Talon is here to slay some beasts, take down some tyrants, chomp on a roasted leg of cow, and buckle his swash with his three-bladed, rocket-powered sword. Get ready to rock the multiplex with the most action a very limited budget can buy. Marvel at the cavalcade of television stalwarts cashing a paycheck in the magical kingdom of Griffith Park during their hiatus. Learn Javi's valuable lesson in cave rentals, discover the (possible) secret origin of Game of Thrones' Red Wedding, and quiver in wonder as we reveal the greatest line reading in cinema history! How are you not already listening to this episode???
The summer of '82 continues to astound and confound Paul, Javi, and - inevitably - Producer Brad by serving up a SECOND romantic comedy about sex workers in as many weeks! After the soul-destroying pyrrhic victory that was “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas”, the Multiplex Overthruster crew trades in small town Texas for sleazy New York City for “Night Shift”! Though directed by Ron Howard and starring Henry Winkler and Shelley Long, this one is most memorable for giving future Beetlejuice and Batman Michael Keaton his first starring role: and what better way to start a movie career than in a comedy chock full of prostitutes, pimps, murderous stand up comedians, oversized top hats, frozen corpses, bloodthirsty rottweilers, Shannen Doherty's first screen appearance, and bad take out! So dim the lights and chill the Sunny-D because we're firing up the hearse and heading off to the Night Shift!
There comes a time when we are all tested to our very core. Paul, Javi and — unflappably — Producer Brad all thought that time had come six weeks ago with Grease 2. They were wrong; that time is now. Our faithful co-hosts face their darkest hour as they descend into the dungeon of despair that is The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, a film that makes Grease 2 look (and sound) like Singin' in the Rain. Not even the divine gift of Dolly Parton can save this torturous endeavor, which somehow renders Burt Reynolds abrasively charmless. Join us as we brave our most treacherous moviegoing challenge yet, and are surreally surprised to discover one startling scene of sci-fi (seriously!), and one spellbinding song of sublimity. Along the way, Paul (our resident Texan) will pierce his PTSD with some injections of insight contextualizing the film's real world roots. Trust us, you never want to see this movie, but you definitely want to listen to this episode.
Before Fury Road, before Furiosa, there was Max. Mad Max. The Road Warrior. Join Paul and Javi, and - without a doubt - Producer Brad as they board the last of the V8 interceptors and brave the dangerous domain of the Lord Humongous of the wastelands. That's right, this week it's George Miller's seminal masterpiece “The Road Warrior” (or “Mad Max 2” for those of you not in the United States in 1982) - the film that damn near invented the post-apocalyptic car wars genre. It's leather, shoulder pads, and gasoline galore at the multiplex this week… and you better watch out for that razor-sharp boomerang!
This week Paul, Javi, and - indubitably - Producer Brad contemplate Conan the Barbarian, John Milius' sweeping, serpent-filled, and surprisingly soup-laden adaptation of Robert E. Howard's legendary pulp hero, brought to laconic life by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the role that made him an icon. Crom commands you to heed this episode as we chronicle Arnold's epic quest to deliver a monologue that measures up to those of his magnificently mellifluous co-stars James Earl Jones, Max Von Sydow and Mako! And did we mention the soup? (And yes, astute listeners, we realize we're breaking continuity by reaching back to a movie that opened on May 14, 1982, but you can trust us as much as steel that this journey into high adventure is infinitely preferable to the wheel of pain that was The Secret of NIMH!)
When John Carpenter sets a movie in a barren terrain of ice and snow, you can bet bucks to beans that the only thing colder than the setting is his regard for the human soul! Paul, Javi, and - indubitably - Producer Brad take on one of the greatest studies in fear and paranoia ever put to film: John Carpenter's The Thing. Released on June 25, 1982, it's one of the rare remakes that outdoes the original in vision and enduring influence, this paragon of the horror genre continues to chill audiences to the bone to this day, and Multiplex Overthruster is here to tell you why!
Though largely, and justifiably, forgotten since its release on June 25, 1982, Hal Needham's Megaforce is a truly breathtaking experience. And we don't necessarily mean “breathtaking” in a positive way. This week, Paul, Javi and — of course — Producer Brad take one for the team and come back much changed, chafed, and itching to chat through this grand guignol of gunfire, explosions and toxic masculinity. The manly men of Megaforce may live by the slogan “Deeds not words”, but so many of those deeds are duds, and we have witty, wise words of warning! It is truly one of the most mystifying films from the summer of '82, and we watched it so you don't have to.
Los Angeles. November 2019. Paul, Javi, and - naturally - Producer Brad, kick off our epic triple feature weekend of June 25, 1982, by revisiting a sense-stunning vision of the distant future that is somehow now our recent past. One of the most influential films of all time, Ridley Scott's towering masterpiece has been imitated, examined, recut, recut again, sequelized, and soon sequelized some more. Join us as we explore the mesmerizing multicultural megalopolis of BLADE RUNNER in its original theatrical cut (yes, with Harrison Ford's reluctant narration), viewed through the lens of the revisionist versions that would (nearly) perfect this landmark of sci-fi cinema. You do not want to miss this episode, which culminates in our co-hosts' most shocking disagreement yet! Thanks to the wonder of podcasting, these moments will not be lost like tears in the rain (though they may elicit tears of laughter).
It is the height of the cold war and the Soviets have developed a fighter that defies radar detection and responds to its pilots thoughts! Naturally, the best man for the job of stealing this lethal next-gen weapon is a burned-out Vietnam war veteran who is prone to debilitating flashbacks! This week Paul, Javi, and - naturally - Producer Brad take the wayback machine to June 18, 1982, a simpler time when we as a nation knew who the bad guys were, we know where they were, and only Clint Eastwood could get in there to steal their most valuable weapon.
On Memorial Day Weekend of 1982, Rocky Balboa's latest and greatest challenger entered the cinematic pantheon. On this first episode, join Paul, Javi, and, of course, Producer Brad as they root for the Italian Stallion and his new nemesis, the legendary Clubber Lang, played by the formidable and inimitable 80s icon Mr. T. Can Rocky get back the Eye of the Tiger in time to defend all he has fought for? Come along with us to the multiplex for the answer - because we pity the fool who does not!
