A Talking Catmentary!?!
On our second commentary of 2022, we're watching and talking over the total embarrassment of a film, A Talking Cat!?! Where are all the sex scenes, because there's no way this wasn't double shot as a porno, right? How does this kid not immediately jump in his own swimming pool instead of tutoring this girl who's clearly into him? Has any other film had their characters all say the words "cheese puffs" this much? And in what airport bathroom did Eric Roberts record his dialogue? PLUS:...

It's our monthly flashback to sunny 1990s L.A.!
First up on Beverly Hills, 90210, it's the totally outrageous episode, "U4EA"! Originally airing back on November 14, 1991, this episode has the gang going to an underground club where David gets wasted, Dylan and Brenda dodge tweakers, and Emily Valentine doses Brandon behind his back!

On this month's AD, the guys are chatting about an episode of the totally bonkers 90s cartoon, Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers!
The episode in question, "The Case of the Cola Cult," originally started warping children's minds back on October 17, 1989. This twisted episode features Gadget losing her confidence and quitting the Rescue Rangers, a truly obnoxious song that will get stuck in your head for months on end, a bunch of vermin dancing in pools of soda, and a d...

On this month's We Love Movies, the guys are chatting about a total all-timer from Michael Mann, Collateral! How completely unappealing does Jamie Foxx's business proposal sound? How cool are those eerie coyotes? Has Michael Mann ever had a film with bad music? And where does this movie land in our Mann Standings? PLUS: Look out for a whole lotta... interesting Minion talk!
Collateral stars Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx, Jada Pinkett Smith, Mark Ruffalo, Bruce ...

Gleep Glossary: A Star Wars Story #40 - The Emperor's Royal Guards
On this month's entry in our Star Wars Gleep Glossary, we're chatting about the guys with the coolest uniforms around, the Emperor's Royal Guards! Was Palpatine really only recruiting tall, jacked fellas for these positions? How rad is that Royal Guard fight in TLJ? And how exactly did the Emperor go about putting these outfits together? PLUS: When a Royal Guard member is out sick, do they just stack a bunch of Jawas on top of each other and slap the red cloak over them?&nbs...
2022-04-29 18:49:23 +0000 UTC View PostAnimation Damnation - Spider-Man: The Animated Series' "Morbius"
On this edition of our cartoon chat show, we're talking about another episode of Spider-Man: The Animated Series!
The episode in question, officially, fully titled, "Neogenic Nightmare Chapter 6: Morbius," originally hit the airwaves back on October 28, 1995. This stunning ep has it all: Michael Morbius flying around like Dracula, Peter Parker disgustingly growing some extra appendages, and our good buddy, Mikey Morbo totally cucking Peter like nobody's business! PLUS: Wa...

It's our monthly trip through Star Trek history and we're chatting about two very meh episodes of TOS and TNG!
First up on TOS, it's the ultra-awkward episode, "The Paradise Syndrome." Originally airing October 4, 1968, this episode features lots of Italian guys playing Native Americans, Spock complaining about the Enterprise crew needing to hit a work deadline, and Kirk really, really enjoying his bout with amnesia!&n...

It's the next chapter of our SoCal in the 90s recap show, MELR0210!
First up on Beverly Hills 90210, it's the filler episode, "Halloween." Originally airing October 31, 1991, this episode has the gang renting Halloween costumes from an eerie Charles Fleischer, everyone at West Beverly carving pumpkins in the hallway for some reason, and Scott and David getting nostalgic while they wait for a childish egg fight to start!
Then cross-town on Melrose ...

On this Patreon-exclusive We Love Movies episode, the gang is chatting about the completely outrageous, totally fantastic, sidled with a shit-eating kid, action classic, Last Action Hero! Is Robert Prosky living in that projection booth? And Columbo-esque follow-up question, did he intend to take his own life on the night Danny goes through the screen? How great is Charles Dance as Mr. Benedict? Did we really need that Bogart hologram? And come on, how hilarious is it when A...

On this edition of Once in a Lifetime, the guys double dip with another entry in the ICU, the completely outrageous second sequel, Stalked by My Doctor: Patient's Revenge! Is this medical college even accredited? Why do so many scenes devolve into Jerry Springer episodes? And how fabulous is this Laid Back Beck and his fun cocktails? PLUS: Is that musical number real?!?!
Stalked by My Doctor: Patient's Revenge stars Eric Roberts, Anna Marie Dobbins, B...

On their first commentary of 2022, the gang sets their sights on the not-great cinematic debut for the Wizarding World, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone! Shouldn't Hogwart's call CPS on the Dursleys? Why does this famous boy hero also have to be filthy rich? Has Mr. Weasley EVER wrapped it up, like, once in his life? And holy lord with those anti-Semitic bank goblins! PLUS: Was that broom-flying coach wasted?

On this very special patron-curated episode of The Nexus, the guys are chatting about two pretty fun episodes from Trek history!
First up on TNG, it's the Worf-centric mystery episode, "Parallels"! Originally airing back on November 27, 1993, this episode has Worf coming back from vacation after being victorious in a bat'leth tournament, Troi and Worf being married in an alternate universe, and yet another alternate universe where, blissfully for some, P...

On this very special patron-selected entry in the Gleep Glossary, the gang learns all about the dirtbag Trandoshan bounty hunter, Bossk! Great stories like how Bossk was partially responsible for training Boba Friend, how he did time on Coruscant after being taken prisoner by Republic forces, or how he once... ::checks notes:: hunted and killed Wookiees whilst helping conquer Kashyyyk, effectively enslaving the entire Wookiee home world? Yikes.

On this month's patron-selected episode of our cartoon chit-chat show, we're talking about an episode of the incredibly shitty Double Dragon cartoon!
The requested episode, "Shadow Claw," originally aired back on September 18th, 1994 and it features a six-legged dog that one of the Dragon Bros hates for no reason, a confusing premise that's sort of got a You Die in the Game You Die For Real thing going on, a weird villain that has a see-through ice chest, and a weird kid ...

On this patron-selected episode of WLM, the guys are chatting about the wild, NYC-set Walter Hill classic, The Warriors! How hilarious is it that all the Warriors were paying the subway fare? Did anyone in the gang really like Ajax? And how amusingly sad are those Orphans? PLUS: Much time devoted to talking about our beloved New York City, so listener discretion is advised!

It's our monthly trip back to the gorgeous Los Angeles of the Go-Go 90s!
First up on 90210, it's the total ass-clencher episode, "Down and Out of District in Beverly Hills"! Originally airing October 17, 1991, this episode has Brandon outing Andrea for scamming the school district, Steve Sanders being gross in a limo with a woman who's dating him for his money, and Dylan McKay... chopping some carrots!

The Nexus #66 - "The Enterprise Incident" / "The Defector"
It's our monthly trip into the world of TREK, and this episode is a double-dose of Romulan-related stories!
First up on TOS, it's the wild-ass episode, "The Enterprise Incident," which originally aired back on September 27, 1968. This ep has it all: Kirk going totally insane (or so we think), Spock getting all sexy with a Romulan Commander, and Scottie really, really, really wanting to blow up the ship.
Then over on TNG, it's another Romulan-...

In this entry of the Gleep Glossary, the guys learn about all the major players in the Max Rebo Band! Turns out, Max Rebo was obsessed with dinner and totally fine with being paid in food, Droopy McCool played space clarinet in the band, had knife-proof skin, and looked a lot like Ghostbusters: Afterlife's Muncher; and Sy Snootles, the beloved singer, gets totally slandered in "The Essential Guide to Characters"! PLUS: How cool would it have been for Paul Shaffer to ja...

On the epic conclusion of the gang's WLM Kill Bill saga, it's all about Vol. 2! How horrendous would this film have been if Warren Beatty had been cast as Bill instead of Carradine? How incredible is the whole Pai Mei sequence? And does Budd live in an actual quarry? PLUS: Would Noah Baumbach's Kicking and Screaming have been better if it ended with a "Massacre at Two Pines"-style hit job at Eric Stoltz's bar?

On this month's helping of cacophonous cartoon conversation, the guys are talking about the Disney reboot of Doug! The episode covered is the late-series entry, "Doug Plays Cupid," which originally aired back on May 22, 1999. How dreadful is this show without Billy West? Why did Roger have to become rich? And does that gym teacher have a foot fetish? PLUS: Was that a fish person at the end? Huh? What?

Episode 594 - Kill Bill: Vol. 1
On this month's We Love Movies selection, the gang is tackling BOTH parts of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill saga. First up on this ep, it's all about Vol. 1! How fantastic is the music in this film? Has a QT cast ever been better, or more stacked? And will we ever see a theatrical or disc release of The Whole Bloody Affair?
