EP35: The Princess Bride (1987)

This week we're having what she's having, as we wrap up the month with another entry into the ADHD-DVD canon. Hayley's got the keys to the vault this month and is using the first Fun Friday of the fall to induct an autumnal classic, the rom-com that paved the path for all others after it, 1989's When Harry Met Sally..., directed by Rob Reiner, written by Nora Ephron, and starring Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan, Carrie Fisher and Bruno Kirby. In addition to dissecting the film, we also talk about its slew of imitators and pick out a few more modern examples that we feel are worthy heirs to the throne.

Other movies discussed in this episode include No One Will Save You, Sanctuary, First Blood, How To Deal, Batman Returns, Set It Up, Sleeping With Other People, Drinking Buddies, Pride & Prejudice, What If / The F Word, and a late last-minute shoutout for Night of the Hunter. We're hyperfixated this week on F-Zero 99, LOST, cross-stitching, and thrifting white whales. Plus J Mo cuts a deal with The Entity from Dead Reckoning.

We'll be back next week to kick off Martin Scorsese Month with Mean Streets, which is currently available on Starz if you'd like to watch it ahead of the episode.

ADHD-DVD - 30 - When Harry Met Sally...

The "Of the Show" gang's all here for a fun Pop Talk about the best actors-turned-directors. Before Jason discusses the best actors-turned directors with Bro of the Show, BFF of the Show, and Fiancée of the show, they chat about who they hope hosts SNL during the upcoming 49th season and how the search for the Daily Show host is playing out. Note: this is not a ranking or a bracket episode. We're just having a little chat about what film actors went on to direct movies particularly well while, as always, having a few laughs.

Triple Threat Theater

Episode 85 - A Sheep In Wolf's Clothing

Its finally here folks- the last regular episode of Media-eval! 
Join Sarah one last time as she tells us why Princess Bride manages to be one of the most accurate movies ever on the show as it goes out on a really happy note.

One last thing from me as I just want to say that it has been a pleasure guesting and listening to this podcast over the last 7 years and a great joy to be able to call Sarah my friend. 


The Princess Bride

"This Is Spinal Tap" (1984), also known as "This Is Spın̈al Tap: A Rockumentary by Martin Di Bergi," is a mockumentary comedy directed by the legendary Rob Reiner in his feature debut and co-written with stars Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer, who play members of the fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap, hilariously dubbed "one of England's loudest bands." Satirizing rock star excess and the earnest style of classic rock documentaries, the largely improvised film earned critical acclaim, modest box office returns, and later a devoted cult following that cemented its status as a landmark of the mockumentary genre and the source of the iconic phrase "Up to eleven." Selected for preservation by the Library of Congress in 2002, the film will finally get a sequel, "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," with Reiner, Guest, McKean, and Shearer reuniting for one last concert in September 2025. Director Rob Reiner was kind enough to speak with us about his work and experience making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out The Golden 41st Anniversary 4K restoration of "This Is Spinal Tap" (with a special intro from Rob Reiner) in theaters from July 5th-7th, 2025 (get your tickets here) from Bleecker Street and will feature the first look at "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues." Thank you, and enjoy!

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.
