4.6 out of 5 stars from 72 ratings
  • Horrible takes

    Should have known I was in trouble after the 5 minute petal clutching about the use of the “R word.” Made to through bad takes on Stephen King, tapped out when the two hosts said Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is a bad movie.

  • The greatest podcast of all time

    The title may sound sarcastic but the statement is 100 percent true. At the peak of this podcast during the lockdowns there simply wasn’t a better podcast out there. Unfortunately the episodes post jaws aren’t quite the same as the classic LJFAM episodes but still really good fun. Both Sarah (not just the female) and MJ (not just the guy) gave me so much joy and a lot of laughs. Especially Sarah’s laugh! It’s the best 🤩

  • SQ Issues

    I only listened to 3 episodes and they were ok. I’ve heard a lot worse. My grumble is the sound quality. The female is too close to the microphone and sounds as though she’s been on the laughing gas as she can’t let a minute go by without cackling.

Probably just as well if “ progressive “ is an indicator. Sham... more

  • Lovely show

    What elevates this above most film podcasts is the sheer warmth and joy radiating from the two hosts. That they’re talking ceaselessly about the best film ever made too? That’s a bonus. Amity A+!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 119: Sorcerer
Q: What do you think about Sorcerer?
I thought it was an incredible movie with three of the most intense scenes I've ever seen that also look incredible. It has a very good acted movie and you could show those scenes without context just to show how to film something intense.
Episode 133: 6 NOPEs A.K.A. 21 John Wicks

Spectacle can be a bad miracle, as it can be good or bad depending on the context and intent behind it.
