“Hey, man, you know what they call Max, Mike; Movies in France?” “No. What do they call it?” “They call it Le Max, Mike; Cinéma.” “That’s cool. What do they call ‘Walk the Dark Street’ in France’?” “That’d be “Marcher Dans La Rue Sombre. “ “Cool. Cool. Is that because they use the metric system?” “What? No! How does that make any sense? Well, you’v…

And we’re back, walking the dark street with our series “Walk the Dark Street.” Works out rather nicely, doesn’t it? This week our subject is a 70’s take on that classic Raymond Chandler character Phillip Marlowe in Robert Altman’s film version of “The Long Goodbye.” This one’s a little different folks; for one thing, it’s in color, which is an iss…

This dame was trouble. I could tell. Those big, brown eyes, so innocent, eyes that said “trust me, I won’t stab you in the back.” Right. I’d heard that before and I had the scars on my trapezius to prove it. She tossed her long mane of hair aside and crossed her long, gorgeous legs, all four of them. I sat back and . . . four? Mane? BUMPY?! How did…

Tom Cruise is a 61-year-old action hero who still delivers the goods in "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One."

Individual sequences are exciting, but m…

As we close out our “…But An Incredible Simulation” series, we’re taking a deep look, thinking deep thoughts, and having a deep discussion about . . . well, it’s right there in the episode title, so you don’t really need me to say it. “Deep Impact” and “Armageddon” have an odd history; most people see “Deep Impact” as a rip-off of the Michael Bay f…

The Mikes each went to different horror festivals this weekend!

[scene: studio execs at Touchstone Pictures talking to director Michael Bay] Execs: So, Mr. Bay, we’re looking for a major summer tentpole movie for 1998. Any ideas? Michael Bay: BOOM! KABLAM! KABLOOIE! SKADAM!! Execs: An asteroid, you say? Love it! So, we get some big stars in a disaster movie . . . what else? Michael Bay: POW! SKABOOM! BLAMBLAMBL…

Once again we bring you reruns. However I feel this movie is an excellent study in how far we have come in our treatment of women. I say if you watch this movie and don't find anything wrong with how Sissy is treated you need therapy. So, sit back and let the nostalgia wash over you like beer and sweat as you ride the mechanical bull at Gilley's.…

Last week’s movie raised the question “Was everybody Kung Fu Fighting?” Well, this week, a 2011 . . . tribute/homage/why-god-why film mumbles the question “Yeah, and was everybody Tae Kwan Do fighting, too? I mean, they might have been! I guess . . .” Like the DreamWorks film, this movie(?) features a Panda and martial arts. But where “Kung Fu Pand…

Wes Anderson makes visually striking, whimsical movies with large ensemble casts, and in that respect "Asteroid City" is very much a Wes Anderson movie. HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano have a friendly jousting match in this podcast episode, because she likes Anderson's movies more than Mike does. Set in 1955, "Asteroid City" t…

A fairly decent representation of the 80's high school hierarchy confined to, well, probably the most amazing school library we'll ever see in our lives. Make friends or don't. Eat sushi or underwear. Play basketball with one shoe. Hide weed in your pants. And munch that damn Captain Crunch sammie with all that sugar for lunch. Tape your buttcheeks…

This week in our “… But An Incredible Simulation” series we tackle the very serious lyrical question: Was EVERYONE Kung Fu Fighting? I mean, it just doesn’t’ seem to make practical sense for everyone, everywhere to be Kung Fu Fighting, especially at the same time. All urban infrastructure would come to a complete halt. Food production would falter.…

Mac and Cheese. Mac and PC. Mac and Me. It’s an almost inevitable progression, isn’t it? A beloved taste treat, a primal struggle between titans, and . . . this movie we’re using for this week’s entry in “…But An Incredible Simulation.” I’m sure you don’t need me to point out the obvious connection between these three cultural phenomena . . . which…

Welcome to another in our “…But An Incredible Simulation,” where we pair blockbusters with mockbusters, in an attempt to tease your cinematic palette (ooo, sounds naughty!).

This is what we officially now know to be Anthony's red button, as well as his baseline for horrible movies. But, just like Life Cereal, Mikey likes it. Enjoy the no holds barred arguments in this one. This is...sadly....Tokyo Drift.על ידי Mike and Anthony

Pl…

Ah, the fascinating geological phenomenon known as the “Atlantic Rim”! Studied by . . . NO ONE, OK? There IS no Atlantic Rim! Well, there is, but it’s not a fascinating planetary crustal system, roughly overlapping the Atlantic Rim of Fire . . . because THAT doesn’t exist either! What DOES exist is this rushed-out knock-off of last week’s blockbust…

This is how we do Summer. Pop Tarts, PB&J off your dog's finger, and actually saying NO to a student's advances. Why would you wanna go to Hawaii with Bill & Ted's stepmom when you can stay and teach Summer School. Salt 'n' Pepa were right...I wanna Shoop.על ידי Mike and Anthony

Our mission, should we choose to accept it, is to discuss the latest entry in the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE series! Does DEAD RECKONING PART ONE live up to the high bar that has been set for this series? Does Tom Cruise pull off another incredible stunt? Did that one thing really happen to that one character (gotta be vague for spoilers, obviously)? Find…

Heckfire and dog my cats! We got us a brand, spanking new series (a spanking! A spanking!) (Calm down, Mike). Y’ever notice how sometimes a big blockbuster movie comes out? Nah, me neither. Kidding, kidding, of course you have; but have you also noticed that when such a movie comes out, right on its heels comes another movie (or movies) that are, s…

This one just never gets old. A freaking cinematic masterpiece! Seriously if I'd ever been a male exotic dancer, I'd have been rocking some light pastel Calvin Klein undies with a life preserver and nothing else. Too bad I can't travel back in time to get abs and a tan and then go back to the future to make that happen.…

This week’s episode is indeed very special: it marks the fifth anniversary of my waking up with a throbbing head and a copy of a binding “We Are Doing A Podcast” stapled to my shirt that I had apparently signed as “Maxxx Overdrive.” Mike has assured me many times over the last five years that this is legally binding and sadly I don’t know of any ki…

So yeah there's a new Mission Impossible out, but let's be real here. What's a more impossible mission than driving NASCAR when you don't know anything about cars, getting pulled over by a fake hot cop grabbing your junk while you're all hopped up on cherry moonshine, and oh yeah, "drafting" sugar packets up your future wife's legs and referring to…

There have been many great, even legendary pairings in history: Gilbert and Sullivan. Lunt and Fontaine. Pork and beans. And of course, Martin and Lewis. Yes, before Dino was swinging with the Rat Pack or fighting bad guys as Matt Helm, before Jerry knew what a telethon was or that the French thought he was a genius, these two were a box office pow…

Disney's 1989 animated film "The Little Mermaid" was an instant classic and so it is not surprising that the studio has now released a live-action remake of it. In this podcast episode, HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano share their mixed response to it. For one thing, so much of it is computer-generated that there is more animat…

Here we are at the penultimate entry in our “You Haven’t Seen THAT?! Part 2” series and I’m really excited about this week’s entry. I had no idea there was a forty-year-old film about my favorite member of Marvel’s Fantastic Four, the ever-lovin’, blue-eyed . . . hah? Really? So, what’s this movie actually about? Oh. Oh geez. This is a SCARY movie?…

Are you ready to go back to Titanic? If you haven't had a chance to check out this episode before, now you can as Mike and Anthony bring this one back to the surface.

The beloved writer Judy Blume's 1970 novel "Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret" is given a very satisfying adaptation in which the story about a girl entering her teen years is handled with comic ease. In this podcast episode, HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano agree that Abby Ryder Fortson as young Margaret, Rachel McAdams as …

I’m sure you’ve all been able to tell that this series “You Haven’t Seen THAT?! Part 2” has clearly taken its toll on Mike. He’s just so stressed out by these movies, and I think we all know that he needs to just chill. You know, take a really big chill pill and just chill out bigly, yes he needs a Big . . . ok, yeah, this isn’t working, it feels r…

Who doesn't love a good pool hustler movie? Who doesn't love a Walken movie? Who doesn't love Ricky Freaking Shcroder??? Sorry..."Rick" Schroder.

It’s my turn to confess my ignorance in this week’s episode of “You Haven’t Seen THAT?! Part 2”: I have never seen the beloved classic of youth “The Goonies.” Nope. Just never got around to it. And now that I’ve seen it . . . much like “American Pie,” I’m a bit disappointed as to the subject matter. I thought I was in for a rollicking good time fol…
