Ranking Spider-Man (Replay)
This episode is a few years old, but with a new Spider-Verse movie out there, we thought this would be a good time to revisit this classic episode.
Enjoy!
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
This week we are talking about the the animated masterpiece, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. There is no reason us to play coy, we all loved this movie, and we spend most of the episode just talking about the parts that we loved. It is every bit as wonderful as we hoped it would be.
Enjoy!
Evil Dead Rise
This week we are talking about the new sequel to a rebooted franchise, Evil Dead Rise. We were all a little let dead by the first one, but we were holding out hope that the new would could surprise us a little. Ther’re a lots of opinions, both high and low, but you’ll just have to listen to see where we came down on the movie as a whole.
Enjoy!
Fast X
Roy was right, the names in this franchise are out of control, and someone really needs to step in a do something. That said, this week we are talking about Fast X, the tenth film in this massive “street racing” franchise (eleventh if you count Hobbs & Shaw). Is it a perfect movie? No. Is it a good movie? …Maybe? We aren’t really sure, but we were happy to spend an hour trying to figure it out.
Enjoy!
The Fast and the Furious Saga
Before we post our episode on Fast X, please enjoy this long episode we recorded for Patreon on the rest of this franchise. The highs are so high, the lows…well they’re still pretty entertaining.
Enjoy!
John Wick 4
That third John Wick film really divided us here at COtR, but with stellar reviews, and success at the box, could John Wick 4 be the movie to unite us? Oddly, yes, yes it did. Against all odds, we saw eye to eye! It’s a John Wick miracle!!!
Enjoy!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3
The time may finally be upon us where we are just getting a little too exhausted by all the comic book movies. Is it that it is all too much, or has the quality of the content just been getting worse and worse. Could be a little but of column A and a bit of column B. Still, that doesn’t mean we aren’t going to watch what comes out and record about it for you, our dear dear friends.
Enjoy!
Dungeons & Dragons and so much more!
This week we are talking about the new fantasy/action/comedy, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, but we don’t stop there. It has been awhile since we all recorded, so we went ahead and played catch-up on all the things we’ve been watching the last month. I don’t like to rate our episodes, but this one is solid. Let’s be honest, sometime we are phoning it in, but we all really brought our “A” game for this one.
Enjoy!
Sherlock Jr.
This week we are reviewing our first silent film on COtR, Sherlock Jr. When this film was requested there may have been a little bit of trepidation because a nearly 100 year old film isn’t really in our wheelhouse, but when we saw that beautiful 45 min runtime, we were all in. There may have been varying degrees of enjoyment from the group, but each of us were still entertained. Turns out, Buster Keaton, pretty good a what he does.
Enjoy!
Blue Ruin
This week we finally around to one of our listener request episodes, Blue Ruin. There aren’t many movies that can unite the four of us in our opinions, and it is very possible that this film was not up to the task. Just listen to the episode, if you want to know how each of us came down on this one.
Enjoy!
The Final Girls
This is the last of our episodes from the “Cabin Chronicles II”, and it watching The Final Girls was one of the high points of the weekend. A tongue-in-cheek send up of slasher movies that avoids many of the cynical pitfalls that a lot of parody movies fall into. An excellent movie to watch with a group of friends.
Enjoy!
RRR
What to can I say about RRR? At one point a character attacks another character by throwing a leopard at him, and that doesn’t even crack the “Top 10” as far as crazy moments in this film.
Enjoy!
Scream 6
This week is a very special episode with a very special guest. A huge thanks to Ryan L. Terry for immediately elevating the quality of our show. Truth be told, he is definitely too smart to be clowning around with us, but we appreciate him bringing his mad knowledge and love of the slasher genre as we discuss Scream 6. There isn’t a good way to write the title out the way the marketing team wanted, where we turn the “M” into a “VI”. Even trying to explain seems silly, but the this episode is top shelf.
Enjoy!
Creed III
This week we are talking about the abs heavy film, Creed III. But more importantly, this is or 365th episode of the show, which mean you can now make it a whole year where you could listen to us everyday, and not repeat. Not next year, because that Leap Year nonsense, but most normal years. Anyway…Creed!
Enjoy!
Everything Everywhere All at Once
In honor of the monumental win for Everything Everywhere All at Once at this year’s Academy Awards, we are just replaying our episode that we recorded earlier in the year. There aren’t many times when the movie we loved the most gets all the attention we think it deserved, but this was one of those times.
Congratulations to EEAAO!!!!
Enjoy!
Cocaine Bear
This week we are talking about the new movie, Cocaine Bear. This movie, “inspired” by real events, has already become a bonafide hit, but is it good, or just a story so bizarre that people had to see what it was all about? You know we don’t always agree, so I guess you should listen to see where we land.
Enjoy!
Rad
Never has a movie more perfectly been named. There is very little that can be said about this movie, it’s really something that must be experienced. And once you’ve experience Rad, your life will never be the same!
Enjoy!
Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania
2022 was kind of a rough year for comic book movies with several of them showing up on our “Worst of" lists. Can this trend be turned around this year? If Marvels first film of the year, Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania, is any indication, then we still can’t answer this question. There are plenty of things to like in the MCU’s latest go, but just as many things seems to come up short. In that way it’s a lot like this podcast.
Enjoy!
OscarBowl 2023
Every year Roy and Kira spend all of Super Bowl Sunday marathoning several Oscar nominated films. The line up this year was The Banshees of Inisherin, The Triangle of Sadness, Empire of Light, and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio. Lots of highs and lows, and some very unwelcome themes for the day, but maybe more enjoyable that watching a football game.
Enjoy!
