Put on your nostalgia glasses, because this one might get controversial. We're talking about Steven Spielberg's Hook. It's a movie that the critics didn't love, but we kids did, damnit! 

Who was right? How has this movie aged? How does Peter Pan age? How does memory work? Are you petty enough to walk up a staircase backwards to maximize hook damage? Did J.M. Barrie say "Lookie lookie, I got bookie!" as he stole this story from a child? 
How does any of this work!?

Our steady March (ah?) of Nostalgia continues! This week, Bryan beered us Free Willy and continued the unofficial theme of the month: Dave not quite understanding what's happening here. 

Sometimes when you get caught defacing a waterpark, you wind up with a sweet job, new friends, a loving family, a sick-ass bedroom, and no criminal charges for stealing a 7,000 lb. sea mammal. So like... I'm not sure what the message is here, but maybe spring for the theft insurance? 

Also: harmonicas.

HEY YOU GUYS! 
You sent us your nostalgic movies for our monthly listener pick episode and right away the ghost of Roger Ebert noticed that multiple people had chosen The Goonies. And Roger knows you gotta give the people what they want! 

So we've done our best to bring you some treasure, in podcast form. No map required. Hopefully it saves your town from becoming a golf course!

We're celebrating musical month! And Dave is starting things off with a bang by beering us South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut! 

The filthy children of South Park are even filthier on the big screen, and their parents have had enough. But obviously they're not to blame. It's those damn CANADIANS with their beady eyes and flappy jaws!

Musical month just keeps rolling on, filling our hearts like a baked potato. 

We're not done with Mr. Trey Parker just yet. Because Bryan beered us a movie from his college days about the horse that got away: Cannibal! The Musical. And we think you know precisely what we mean when we say it's a shpadoinkle episode! 

Why do we spend so much time talking about Bruce Springsteen, you ask? We don't know either!

Wrap me in felt and stick your hand up my backside! We're Movin' Right Along through Musicals Month and this week is special birthday pick from Dave: It's The Muppet Movie! 

This movie holds a special place in Dave's heart and it helps Bryan remember where the sun rises and sets. So you know, pretty important. 

How long until we do a Ray Romano impression? Tune in to find out!

Musical Month continues! Kind of. Bryan tried to beer something appropriate for the month's theme, episode 69, AND the nearest episode to 4/20. It turns out Earth Girls Are Easy, while wildly entertaining, is BARELY a musical. 

But the show must go on! So take some colorful furry Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey, and Damon Wayans aliens, one really horned-up 80s Geena Davis, and sprinkle in a couple songs, and you have this absolutely insane movie.

We asked you to submit musicals for our end-of-the-month listener episode and you guys understood the assignment! At least better than Bryan did. And while most of you chose CATS, the ghost of Roger Ebert had other plans. 

That's why we're talking about Hairspray! And what a fun way to send off our month-long celebration of musicals: with an ACTUAL musical! So tune in while we sing and dance around the issues of fat shaming, racism, and Amanda Bynes!

EP70: Hairspray (2007)

A weekly podcast where two self-proclaimed film nerds talk movies. That's right, another movie podcast.

Throughout each episode, we assign point values for different categories to arrive at a final score. Then we surprise our co-host (and our listeners) with the next week's movie. On the last week of every month, we randomly select a film suggestion from our listeners!

We never know what we'll be talking about the next week! Shenanigans ensue.
