    Soul Food (1997)

    This movie is a classic, it taught me all about the dangers of diabetes. RIP Big Mama. Never watched the TV show though.

    Monkeybone (2001)

    Back in high school, my friend group would pick one movie each month to see together at the theater. We always kept things pretty even, but one outing I was the odd gal out and was forced into paying for a movie I definitely did not want to see (Save the Last Dance). To balm my wounds they agreed that I and I alone would pick the next month's movie. I picked this one. We drifted apart as friends before the end of that school year.

    I don't think I've been this peeved at a movie in a while.
  4. Honestly, I would love a new mummy movie, but a straight-up horror movie. No action heroes, no quips, no shared universes. I love proper monsters and folklore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    If any of y'all have cable, Dragon Blade is available on Starz. If any of y'all also have an eternal Cusack crush, this viewing will be rough. :/

    Episode 203 - Perfect Stranger: LIVE!

    Watching someone use the internet once and then repeated viewings of The Net.

    Episode 203 - Perfect Stranger: LIVE!

    Were people still heavily using AOL Chat and AIM in 2006/2007? I know there was a nostalgia wave last year when AIM was discontinued, but I remember everyone being much more into MySpace and Facebook at the time.

    Also, throwing a hissy fit for not being able to publically out a gay man in the media: not a good look.

    Episode 203 - Perfect Stranger: LIVE!

    The gang seemed to have an issue with how Ro acted at the medical examiner’s office, but it made sense to me. Seeing a dead body, especially one you were formerly acquainted with, can be a harrowing experience even for those responsible for the death. Many murders faced with the evidence of their wrongdoing have had intense physical reactions: tears, outbursts, begging a higher power or the victim for forgiveness. And even if the movie was trying to portray her as a stone cold calculated killer who was putting on a show for the medical examiner, there are sights and smells that come off the dead that you just can’t prepare yourself -or your weak, alcohol filled stomach- for. Grace had been submerged and then found floating; waterlogged bodies are pretty dang gross. If anything seemed off to me about the whole thing it was her bright red vomit. The heck was she eating/drinking before she rolled down there? So many of the characters in this movie are self-medicating with alcohol, drugs, sex, risky behavior. This whole movie probably could have been avoided with therapy.

    Episode 200 - Action Jackson: LIVE!

    Dellaplane reminded me a lot of a certain someone in this movie. Doesn't really care about his dirtbag son, pissed he was humiliated by a black man, super corrupt businessman, terrible to his previous wife, women have to be high to have sex with him...

    Episode 200 - Action Jackson: LIVE!

    COD is also short for 'cause of death'. That statue. At first I assumed it was one of the ninja guys hiding back there, but I guess it was just a high art, like a commentary about black roles in white society, but it straight up looks like someone in a zentai suit wearing a maid's uniform and a wig. Like I can't see a stand or anything holding it up. I hope someone can provide backstory on that.

    Feel better Paul! Action Jackson is definitely a 'thank God this got made' for me. Love it. Love Carl Weathers. Love Bill Duke.

    Mandy (2018)

    I really enjoyed this movie, I would also definitely recommend watching it. Andrea Riseborough is fantastic and I bought them together, their little life in the woods was cute. My only complaints would be that once or twice the movie felt like it was trying to hard to be weird, and there are two rando off-screen deaths that didn't sit right with my soul given everything going on in our current flaming hellscape. Great otherwise though, I would watch it again which is more than I can say for a lot of stuff I've seen lately.

    Episode 198.5 - Minisode 198.5

    I spent the first few minutes wondering what year the movie was supposed to be set in. Unattentive pity-party husband and Leslie are real throwbacky; pretty much all of the adult characters are. I hate plots that could be solved in seconds if people just talked to each other. Loved Slick though.
  15. I believe you are 100% remembering the first movie right. Now I also haven't seen any of these movies in a long time, but I believe I remember Travolta taking flying lessons in the first movie. He brings Mikey along to one and they have a "moment" over some woman's big boobs (gross) and then he takes the baby on his flying lesson. He takes a child who is not his on a flying lesson without telling the mother beforehand. I think there's also potential Travolta cheating bullshit in the third movie when the family gets dogs at Christmas. These movies are just terrible.

    Katie needs to go into witness protection. Also, air plants! Air plants are low maintenance, pet safe, and can be bought in bulk online.

    Episode 196 - The Meg: LIVE!

    Speaking of the Meg's secret ecosystem, this shark is inbred to hell and back, right? I didn't get a chance to see this movie yet, nor have I read the book so I don't know what this underwater ocean was supposed to look like, but how many megalodons could have gotten caught up in it millennia ago? There could only be so many fish, squid, and smaller sharks before they resorted to cannibalism and thinned what numbers they had. These Megs should be in dire straits. Personal gripe. I get that this movie was in development for twenty years, but can we please take a break from the dinosaur and megalodon hype train? There are so many amazing prehistoric animals that never get a chance to shine. Give me my Megatherium movie!

    The Baby (1973)

    I agree, this movie is bananas.
  19. I would definitely see June's gymnastics movie. I think she might enjoy American Anthem? The scene where two of Velvet's henchmen are beating Stargrove up in the kitchen and they force feed him the cherry tomato, I think you can see Stamos disassociate from his body.

    Body Rock (1984)

    Wow. Did they loose script pages? This movie jumps forward a lot, and the main character is being rocketed to 'fame' on literally three dance moves he learned from a (more talented and more deserving) child. Can't wait for the episode.

    Episode 187 - Beautiful Creatures

    Sometimes I confuse her with Kat Dennings, but I adore them both so it's a win-win for me either way. I definitely know the Chrises though. If only that were a paying skill.

    Episode 187 - Beautiful Creatures

    The ending of this movie is such a bummer; so Ethan (human Labrador Retriever) never gets to leave his dead-end town? Sarafine sexually pawing at Macon made me so uncomfortable. I was half paying attention, so when she said brother I was like, oh symbolic brother not real brother, but then I started paying attention and that was not the case.

    Episode 185.5 - Minisode 185.5

    I'm taking my mother to see Grave of the Fireflies this summer during Ghibli Fest, as well as two others I think she'll enjoy. This will be her first time seeing an animated movie that isn't from Disney or Pixar, so we're both pretty excited, incoming emotional devastation aside.

    Geostorm (2017)

    Maybe they're holding off going to Orlando until Nintendo Land opens at Universal. That's my excuse.

    Geostorm (2017)

    I suppose, like I remember This movie had Robert Sheehan and it still did nothing for me, that is a sin!
