No guest for this one (there's no one we can think of that we hate enough to make them watch this trash movie). Welcome to what is hopefully the last conversation ANYONE will have on the 2001 film Evolution, a bargain bin Ghostbusters rip-off that doesn't check a single box to be worth a revisit.

Things sure turned out different. In what way? Different. Our summer hours continue as we tackle one of its dog-day classics. For 40 years we've lived with the idea that it could be the best in the genre. Friend of the pod, baseball fan, (and member of the Matt CClub) Matt Cowan joins us to revisit this pastoral classic. Is it a 5-tool film? Did it…

Manners. Maketh. Man. Just a little lax on our release schedule as things open up and weather gets warmer, but we're back with an...old? New. New classic. In a renaissance of comic book movies, this one did well, but didn't seem to percolate like the MCU. Sure, it got a sequel (which we talk about) and is getting a soft reboot (which we're cautious…

Kirk Douglas, Farrah Fawcett, and Harvey Keitel walk into a space station. I forget the rest of the joke, but the punchline involves a robot and cake. Ever heard of this one? Even Matt hadn't, and that's saying something. Our hosts have a lot of questions, but thankfully returning guest Mike Simses (2010: The Year We Make Contact) has the answers. …

Do you think there's a really angry way I could say I'm sorry? The 90s was a really weird time for everybody, but especially superhero movies. In between nipple-suit Batman and laryngitis Batman, we got Mystery Men. In the same tradition as Austin Powers and Galaxy Quest, this comedian-driven vehicle poked fun at its genre while still appreciating …

Julia Roberts fakes her death and hides in Iowa to escape a psychopathic mustache and the man attached to it. You can all blame Amanda for this one - a 90s marital thriller centered around Julia Roberts hot off the success of Pretty Woman. A movie so incompetent, they managed to cast a new love interest that is somehow just as creepy as the violent…

Murderous jell-o wreaks havoc on a small American town (it's better than it sounds). Let us just say...this is a special one. We highly recommend watching the movie before listening to the episode (a Gi5 first). We almost don't even want to describe anything about it in order to not give anything away. You wouldn't think the remake of a 1950s b-mov…
