  • Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 1
    2024/11/12

    Zach and Germ drop into the MCU timeline, with the underrated gem, Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 1.

    There's almost too much to cover. Touching on the chart-topping soundtrack, Howard the Duck and his inevitable trip to the Void, the introduction of the infinity stones, the incredible cast (with some unexpected Vin Diesel love), what made Dave Bautista cry, and the unforgettable exchanges between Rocket and Groot, Zach and Germ lay out all the reasons why this may have been one of the best Marvel movies made.

    Ummmm...yeahhhh....

    Germ and Zach celebrate 25 years of TPS reports with the cult classic, Office Space, complete with favorite lines, casting stories, the satirical take on corporate life versus the reality of it, what to do with the Bobs, Lumburghs, and Drews of the world, and what it is about the movie that resonates with its audience.

  • Month of Tim Burton: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
    2024/10/29

    Germ and Zach close out a month of Tim Burton films with the return of the ghost with the most in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Along the way, the duo discuss the reasoning behind the absences of Jeffrey Jones (yikes), Alec Baldwin, and Geena Davis, the connections to the first film, the focus on the three generations of the Deetz women, and Willem Dafoe's role of a lifetime (or death time, in this case).

  • Month of Tim Burton: Sleepy Hollow
    2024/10/22

    As the month of Tim Burton winds to a close, the rambling duo of Germ and Zach discuss Sleepy Hollow, Tim Burton's first self-professed horror film. Covering another all-star cast that would appeal to any fan of Star Wars, Harry Potter, or Lord of the Rings, Germ and Zach break down casting, art design, drop in some Christopher Walken love, and do their best to ensure that Ray Park gets his due.

    Oh. And rambling. All the rambling. Something not at all uncommon with these friends.

  • Month of Tim Burton: The Nightmare Before Christmas
    2024/10/17

    Is it a Halloween movie or a Christmas movie?

    The month of Burton continues, as Zach and Germ discuss The Nightmare Before Christmas, the one and only Tim Burton film that he did not direct (job well done, Henry Selick!). Along the way, the wandering duo talk about favorite horror films, Burton's tenure in the Disney Art Studios, Danny Elfman's fantastic score--as well as his vocals for Jack Skellington's songs--and the original ending for the script that sent Burton into a rage.

    Fun fact: It took 12 shots of movement to capture a single second of film!

  • Month of Tim Burton: Edward Scissorhands
    2024/10/15

    After a Helene-induced power/internet outage delay, Zach and Germ return to continue their month of Tim Burton films with Edward Scissorhands.

    The duo discss the casting choices, Johnny Depp making you want to jump jump, the beauty in Burton's portrayal of a lonely and isolated character, Edward's connection to a dog and Charlie Chaplin, and Zach tries without success to say the word 'subtly'.

    Just a couple of friends acting like idiots, talking about movies they love.

  • Month of Tim Burton: Mars Attacks
    2024/10/01

    In this first episode in a month-long series on films by Tim Burton, Germ and Zach discuss Mars Attacks!, the dynamic cast, the lunacy and satire of humans under attack, how this film influenced Burton's attempted Superman film (which unlocks up some Nic Cage appreciation, because ... Nic Cage), the 1962 Topps-issued card series and Burton's love for old school sci-fi movies that inspired the film, and the many feelings people express over some of Burton's choices--including his use of Danny Elfman's soundtracks.

    Also, Germ tries to cuss and we discuss the best way to kill aliens ... ever.

  • Back to the Future
    2024/09/24

    Germ and Zach dig into Back to the Future, a classic and favorite, covering the controversial hire of Eric Stoltz as Marty, the muddled science behind the flux capacitor and alternate timelines, the odd choice for the original time machine, the difficulties the Bobs had landing a deal for the movie, and where they would go in time if they had a DeLorean to take them there.
