EARLY ACCESS ~ CANNONBALL 2 (YT EDIT)
Cannonball Run II (1984) is somehow even dumber, louder, and more gloriously unhinged than the first one — and here’s the shocker: we loved it even more. Neither of us had seen it before, and going in blind made the experience feel like discovering a secret stash of 80s chaos we didn’t know we needed.If the first...
EARLY ACCESS ~ STRANGER THINGS S5E7
Episode 7 is the season’s most deliberate episode, and depending on what you want out of your penultimate chapter, that’s either a strength or the exact thing that’s going to irritate you. This is not a fireworks episode. This is a reckoning episode — characters finally stopping long enough to say the things th...
EARLY ACCESS ~ S5E6 STRANGER THINGS
The military threat finally feels real here, not just looming. The show leans into the procedural side of it — coordination, deployment, strategy — and while that grounds the danger, it also occasionally clashes with the more intimate Hawkins storytelling. You can feel the show straining a bit to balance “small-t...

Hey everyone — we wanted to share a quick and heartfelt update.
Hey everyone — we wanted to share a quick and heartfelt update.Unfortunately, Tara’s stepdad Chip passed away today. After a long and difficult stretch, the family had to make the decision to remove him from life support, as there was nothing more that could be done. It’s been an incredibly heavy time, made even ...
EARLY ACCESS ~ THE CANNONBALL RUN (YT EDIT)
The Cannonball Run is not a movie so much as a cocaine-fueled celebrity road trip that accidentally got cameras pointed at it—and that’s exactly why it rules. There is no plot to speak of, no character arcs, and absolutely zero concern for things like logic or restraint. It’s just a parade of movie stars, race ca...

EARLY ACCESS ~ STRANGER THINGS S5E4
Episode 4 is where the season stops circling its ideas and just detonates them. This is the episode that makes it clear the endgame isn’t about Eleven vs. Vecna anymore—it’s about control, vessels, and who the Upside Down was really grooming all along.The military base infiltration immediately shifts the tone. El...
EARLY ACCESS ~ STRANGER THINGS S5E3
Stranger Things – Season 5, Episode 3Episode 3 is where Season 5 finally stops feeling like it’s arranging chess pieces and starts actually playing the game. The episode leans into atmosphere and character tension more than spectacle, and that’s a smart move. The Upside Down feels less like a monster-of-the-week ...
STRANGER THINGS SEASON 5 EPISODES 3&4 FULL WATCHALONG
Watching Episodes 3 and 4 back to back is where Season 5 really clicks into place. This is the stretch where the show stops setting the table and starts serving food. The mythology tightens, the character arcs deepen, and the sense that this thing is barreling toward an ending—one that’s going to hurt—becomes imp...
STRANGER THINGS S5E2 YT EDIT
Episode 2 keeps the momentum going, but it also shows some of the seams a bit more than Episode 1. The emotional groundwork is still strong—this season clearly wants to pay off character arcs instead of just throwing monsters at the screen—but you can feel the writers juggling a lot of threads. Sometimes it works b...
EARLY ACCESS ~ THE REF (YT EDIT)
The Ref (1994) is one of the great underappreciated holiday-black-comedy gems—mean, sharp, fast, and way funnier than it has any right to be. It’s basically Home Alone for adults if the Wet Bandit was Denis Leary and the McCallisters were a married couple on the brink of total psychological collapse.Leary plays Gus...

EARLY ACCESS ~ STRANGER THINGS S5E1
Right out of the gate, the episode makes it clear: this is not the “kids on bikes” era anymore. Everyone’s older, angrier, and walking around with the weight of Vecna’s cliffhanger still chewing at them. The emotional hangover from Season 4 is everywhere—especially with Eleven and Will. And speaking of Will...
EARLY ACCESS ~ JINGLE ALL THE WAY (YT EDIT)
Jingle All the Way (1996) is the cinematic equivalent of holiday shopping on December 24th—loud, frantic, mildly traumatic, and somehow still fun if you’re in the right headspace. Kevin is firmly in the “so bad it’s good” camp with this one, and honestly? That’s the correct way to watch it. Tara enjoyed it,...
FULL WATCHALONG ~ STRANGER THINGS S5E1
Season 5 kicks off like the Duffers grabbed every dial on the control board and slammed them all the way to MAX, because Episode 1 wastes zero time reminding you why this show took over the world in the first place. It’s darker, bigger, and somehow way more emotional—like every character has been carrying four seas...

EARLY ACCESS ~ HOT TUB TIME MACHINE
**Hot Tub Time Machine** (2010) is the dumb-smart, raunchy-ridiculous comedy that absolutely should not work as well as it does—but somehow nails that perfect blend of nostalgia, chaos, and “are we really doing this?” energy. It’s a movie that knows exactly how stupid its premise is (a magical hot tub powered b...

EARLY ACCESS ~ GRUMPIER OLD MEN
Grumpier Old Men (1995) takes everything great about the first film—Lemmon, Matthau, insults sharp enough to draw blood—and cranks it up with even more absurdity and a little Mediterranean spice courtesy of Sophia Loren. If Grumpy Old Men was about two cranky neighbors feuding over ice-fishing and pride, the sequel...
EARLY ACCESS ~ ROAD HOUSE
Road House (1989) is already a fever dream of mullets, bar fights, philosophy, and denim-clad violence—but our episode for it might be the most ADHD thing we’ve ever put on the channel. And honestly? If you’re here for us, you’re gonna love every chaotic second. If you’re here for a calm, structured film anal...

FULL WATCHALONG ~ ROAD HOUSE
Road House (1989) is pure late-’80s testosterone therapy—the kind of movie where every line, explosion, and bar fight feels like it was written on a beer coaster. Directed by Rowdy Herrington (yes, really), it stars Patrick Swayze as Dalton, a zen bouncer with a philosophy degree who gets hired to clean up the rowd...
EARLY ACCESS ~ GRUMPY OLD MEN
Grumpy Old Men (1993) is proof that sometimes all you need for a great comedy is two legends with decades of chemistry and a script that lets them insult each other for 90 minutes straight. Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau reunite as lifelong rivals and next-door neighbors in small-town Minnesota—two retired men whose ...

EARLY ACCESS ~ CHARLIES ANGELS (2000)
Charlie’s Angels (2000) is the most gloriously over-the-top action-comedy of its era—an explosion of slow-motion hair flips, bad one-liners, and turn-of-the-millennium energy so potent it practically smells like Vanilla Body Spray and dial-up internet. Directed by McG (back when that name alone felt like a Mountain...
EARLY ACCESS ~ THE CABLE GUY
The Cable Guy (1996) is the dark comedy nobody knew they needed until it terrified them. It’s what happens when you take Jim Carrey—fresh off Ace Ventura and The Mask—and tell him to weaponize that manic energy. Directed by Ben Stiller, it’s part psychological thriller, part black comedy, and part social satire...
