Listen as we talk about superhero costumes, Nic Cage's career, Nic Cage's accent, Nic Cage's mustache, real life superhero training, Myspace, dueling Quicksilvers, BOMB ASS PLANS, Mark Strong, and hearing your name in movies. All that plus "Fun Facts" and Tenzie awards! (NEXT EPISODE: "A Nightmare on Elm Street")

154 - Clash of the Titans
"It's called Clash of the Titans. The titans are already dead. There are no titans. Strike one". THE KRAKEN was released 10 years ago, and it came at a time where everybody was gaga for converting their movies to 3D and getting some of them sweet sweet Avatar dollars. Some things worked, some things didn't. Listen as we break down outstanding supporting characters, tragic Greek backstories, shiny (unnecessary) armor, TYLER, ancient history, laughing in the face of certain death, Pegasus gallops, amazing death smirks, giant scorpions and Krakenomics. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie Awards! (NEXT EPISODE - Kick Ass)

153 - How To Train Your Dragon
"It's business in the front, and a party in the back...but not a party you wanna go to" Oh boy, been waiting for this one. 10 years and 3 movies later, one of the most underrated animated movies of all time (and a trilogy with no weak entries) made its debut. Toy Story 3 may have conquered in the end, but this movie was something special. Listen as we discuss STAKES!, bad Scottish accents, inventions, Scottish viking names, battle strategies, learning to smile, bad dads and the return of bomb-ass plans. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzies awards! (NEXT EPISODE: Clash of the Titans)

152 - Alice in Wonderland
"It's a trick-fuck, is what this movie is!" Happy Frabjus day! (whatever that is). What better way to celebrate than by revisiting the MASSIVELY successful launch of Disney's Live-Action "License to Print Money" adaptation series. Successful in the sense that it made boatloads of money, not as a measure of quality. Listen as we discuss Johnny Depp/Tim Burton's partnership, made up words, made up names, Hathaway's horsefly infested piss-castle, the last time we were befuddled, good guys cheating in battles, the Little Women remake, Narnia kids going through adulthood and why the "Stuffington Shuffle" is an infinitely better dance than the "Futterwagon". All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzies! (NEXT EPISODE: How To Train Your Dragon)

151 - Shutter Island
"My first thought was 'wow, you have a tiny dick. You should pick a new metaphor'" Duly appointed movie reviewers check out a few duly appointed Federal Mahshalls in a creepy, underrated Scorsese gem from 2010. We break down Leo's career, aversion to horror movies, WWII flashbacks, Serious actors going funny, good 2010 thrillers and rename a Tenzie award to be a bit nicer to people. All that plus Fun Facts and those Tenzie awards! (NEXT EPISODE: Alice in Wonderland)
4/18/2020 • 1 hour, 35 minutes, 53 seconds
150 - The Blind Side
"You and me and Sandy B makes three". A left behind gem from 2009, there was no way we would leave Sandra Bullock's Oscar winning performance go unappreciated. Listen as we break down asking the wrong questions, THANKS-giving, geographical doodling, oompa loompa running backs and balloons! All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie awards!
4/3/2020 • 1 hour, 30 minutes, 24 seconds
148 - 2009 Year-In-Review
Time for something new! We've been doing the show for 5 years and for the first time we are recapping our favourites and least favourite movies, characters, lines, scenes and more from the review crop of 2009. We also look ahead to the coming year and get psyched (or the opposite) for the movies of 2010. Thank you all for the continued support of the show. Looking forward to revisiting 2010 with you in 2020!

147 - Avatar
Avengers Endgame is better. We're back to break down what WAS the biggest movie of all time for 10 years: Avatar. Listen as we break down the troubling physiology, the incredible visual effects and mostly the direct comparisons to every other movie with the exact-ish same plot. All that plus Fun Facts, Tenzie Awards and more! (NEXT EPISODE: 2009 in Review)
2/29/2020 • 1 hour, 25 minutes, 18 seconds
146 - The Princess & The Frog
“Pricking of fingers and drops of blood are not acceptable currency, and it makes me suspicious”. It's a southern good time as we break down a seemingly forgotten animated Disney film of a by-gone style. We talk snow treks, beignets, smooth jazz, swamp creatures and voodoo villains. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie Awards!
1/30/2020 • 1 hour, 24 minutes, 29 seconds
145 - 2012
"I feel like I'm at a little kid's birthday party, where you get to play on all the things and go in the ball pit and eat the cake and enjoy Chuck E Cheese when he comes out to sing... and I just can't wait for your sugar high to crash and you to go to sleep". It's been 10 years since we were 3 years away from the end of the world, and the MUTHA of all disaster movies brought out the best in us and the worst in us. Bow has been waiting for this all year, as he LOVES this movie. J9 hated it. A debate rages on as they break down disaster scenarios, inspirational speeches, airplane getaways, kids who piss themselves, awful cruise ship musicians and whether or not CARL ANHEUSER is the greatest character in cinema history. All that plus FUN FACTS and Tenzie awards.
12/16/2019 • 1 hour, 31 minutes, 14 seconds
144 - Twilight: New Moon
"...and then she smiles, or maybe she doesn't... because she can't" Oh boy! A teen love triangle involving werewolves, vampires and a living statue should have been a home run, right?! How did it go so wrong aside from "easily" and "definitively"? Listen as we discuss the lack of shirts, the lack of emotions, the lack of Anna Kendrick, the lack of answers and the lack of chemistry. All that plus FUN FACTS and Tenzie awards!
12/6/2019 • 1 hour, 16 minutes, 10 seconds
143 - Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs
"It has nothing to do with the idea, it's 100% the execution". It's a pleasure to revisit this absolute cinematic delight, and we could not be happier (even though we get sidetracked by a tiny screwdriver). Listen as we break down Clone High, Phil Lord & Chris Miller's comedic genius, Bill Hader and Will Forte also being comedic genuises, how they discard their food, vegetarian and vegan alternative, ordering at food places, AND TONS AND TONS OF FOOD OPINIONS. Also, Bowman has a hiccup attack for half of the show and attempts to power through it. He fails. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie awards!
11/29/2019 • 1 hour, 15 minutes, 25 seconds
142 - District 9
"If you watch all 3 Pitch Perfects I'll watch Predator" That right there is the easiest deal in the world. It's been 10 years since Prawns invaded our cinema, and Wickus Vandewrewasrhar didn't follow proper protocols and it ruined EVERYTHING. A best picture nominee that features a giant ass-kicking mech suit, it was a joy to revisit Wickus, Christopher Johnson and the rest of the gang. Listen as we talk aliens, shitting your pants at a surprise party, racial politics, interspecies prostitution, badass weaponry, cat food, seafood and much more. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie awards!
11/15/2019 • 1 hour, 22 minutes
141 - The Final Destination...but not THE FINAL Final Destination
This. This is why you don't get cute with your movie titles. Although Bow could have clearly looked at the release year, a very rare happenstance has befallen the show and Bow and J9 watched two different movies. The episode that follows is the mishy-est of mishmashes as Bow tries to recount a movie he has not seen in 10 years and basks in the joy of Final Destination 5 anyway. The shoe is on the other foot as he's got questions and she's got the answers. Please enjoy a fun, disjointed romp through death by destiny.
11/11/2019 • 55 minutes, 36 seconds
140 - Paranormal Activity
"86 minutes of high-riddled anxiety" Happy Halloween! Found footage horror movies were a big deal at one point, and then they weren't, and then this movie came out 10 years ago and restarted the whole damn thing. One of the most profitable movies of all time, that launched a game-changing production company and creeped the hell out pretty much everyone who saw it. Listen as we break down the supernatural, Ouija board protocol, bad bedroom furniture setup, couple fights, what scares us and at what point during a situation like this "WE OUT!" All that plus fun facts and Tenzie awards!
10/31/2019 • 1 hour, 30 minutes, 18 seconds

"Wait until they get graspable distance from you, then boom! Easy". Before they double-tapped, there was the first shot and it was awesome. It's been 10 years since Harrelson, Eisenberg, Stone and Breslin went zombie killing, and why not revisit the original before seeing Zombieland: Double Tap? Listen as we break down zombie rules, questionable judgement, the lack of explosives, Bill Murray and fast vs slow zombies. We also discuss our zombie survival strategies and hand out some Tenzie awards after Fun Facts. (NEXT EPISODE: Paranormal Activity....?)

"She's sitting in that chair, with her eyes closed, and I am dying inside. Then she can't get up that hill..." One of Disney/Pixar's BEST turned 10 years old, and we couldn't wait to break it down. Listen as we get into how great dogs are, how great balloons are and just overall how great this movie is, even if it takes a sledgehammer to your heart in the first 10 min. This episode also features the single greatest "Personal History" story we've featured on the show. Listen for all that and Fun Facts plus Tenzie awards! (NEXT EPISODE: The Hangover)
7/30/2019 • 1 hour, 40 minutes, 46 seconds

"Why don't I watch this monthly? Why don't I watch this before going to work in the morning?" Man oh man! It's been 10 years since the rebooted Star Trek franchise set out on it's maiden voyage, and it is JUST as excellent as it was the day it came out. I don't recall how many films over the 5 year course of this show have gotten a perfect 17/17 on the "Stop Loss Scale", but you can add 1 more to it! Listen as we friggin GUSH over this movie, the dialogue, characters, the visual effects, the BOMB ASS PLANS and tough love dished out by the master, Bruce Greenwood. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie Awards! (NEXT EPISODE: Up)
7/19/2019 • 1 hour, 41 minutes, 43 seconds
134 - X-Men Origins: Wolverine
"We wanted something closer to the cartoon, not A cartoon" Aww yeah is immediately followed by ohhhh no as we revisit the first (and only) X-Men Origins movies that managed to mess up pretty much every character who shows up on screen. Deadpool, Gambit, Cyclops, Blob, Emma Frost et al do not get the appropriate level of respect here, but at least Hugh Jackman has his working boots on. Listen as we break down mutant powers, dog men, Liev Schreiber's infinite boydom, a wild night in Montreal and whether or not Bow would join "The Wigglypuffs". All that plus Fun Facts, Tenzie awards and many an answered question. (NEXT EPISODE: Star Trek)

Money. This movie made an insane amount of it, and to date nobody knows why. Scholars theorize that.... Forget all that, we back and we going to the mall.

It's CLINT EASTWOOD at his curmudgeonly finest in a performance as hilarious as it is offensive. But he's old, and he saw some stuff in Korea, so.....

126 - Tropic Thunder
Oh yeah! One of the best comedies of the year is finally here! Two movies dominated the Summer of 2008. We've already checked in with Batman, but now it's time to review the tale of Speed-man. And a ridiculous method actor, heroin addict gross out comedy star, rap magnate and a whole host of other Hollywood send ups. Infinitely quotable, definitely worthy of repeat viewings even a decade later. Love this movie! All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie awards! (NEXT EPISODE: High School Musical 3)

7/7/2018 • 1 hour, 55 minutes, 31 seconds
120 - The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
I suppose we could have released this episode a bit soo-NAH. After a decent first installment where Santa randomly showed up to give kids weapons and a kid sold out his entire family for some gross dessert, we're back in Narnia and shit's different. There are Conquistadors, Willow is a dick, Middletaurs are extinct and plans go awry in spectacular fashion. Join us as we break down this movie, one Trumpkin stare at a time.

114 - Meet The Spartans
"Watching this movie is like smelling Sex Panther for 69 minutes" We've done it! The WORST movie of 2008 is done and in the books and we can all move on with our lives. Epic Movie "broke the show" and was the moment where Chris decided he was "kinda done with this", so naturally the fear is there that J9 would pack it in after taking on it's sequel, Meet The Spartans. Listen as we discuss how these filmmakers have figured it out, low expectations, Budget v. Box Office humor being subjective and... you know what? Let's just move on. Fuck this movie...it's not a movie. (NEXT EPISODE: Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana: Best of Both Worlds Concert)

112 - The Bucket List
aka "Grumpy Old Men 3: We Dyin" Regardless, we're back to take a look at two old men (one rich, one kind) who set off to accomplish some dreams before they die. Still unclear if this movie was before the use of the term "Bucket List" was popularized, or after.
3/5/2018 • 1 hour, 49 minutes, 38 seconds
111 - Superbad
An episode that was rescued from the depths of audio purgatory! Thanks to J9's efforts, we were able to salvage this very nearly lost episode from last year. Cannot believe it's been 10 years since one of the absolute best coming of age comedies of all time. The jokes per minute ratio is off the charts, so we welcome you to listen along as we recount our mutual appreciation for the struggles of underage drinking and underage life.

108 - Ratatouille
Bonjour! Bonjour! For the first time since Cars, we are revisiting a Disney/Pixar film and it was a stone cold stunner from 2007. Listen as we discuss The Food Network, depressing movies and why we won't watch them, Bow being a "basic bitch" in the kitchen, his hatred of the food movie genre, not wearing hair nets, the UNEARNED love story, helpful ghosts, American rats in Paris, evolving taste buds and Bradley Cooper playing a bad boy chef (on the edge!).

102 - Spider-Man 3

61 - Eight Below
Full Disclosure: We really liked this movie, and there was a fuck up in recording that cost us half the episode. We left a good chunk of it to die in the Arctic. As such, jBow and CBax take a truncated look at a movie they keep confusing with "Snow Dogs". Listen as the lads discuss Paul Walker never sounding smart, how to doom your movie character, "Calamity" Bruce Greenwood, the dog movie being 1000 times better than the human movie, the worst scene in the parallel "Bird Movie", and an incredible plan involving Paul Walker forging a six year old's drawing. Jason Biggs was also there. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie Awards! (NEXT EPISODE: "Tyler Perry Presents Madea's Family Reunion")

60 - Pink Panther / Opening Scene of Ghost Ship / Our Boys & Girls
A very special, very distracted episode. jBow and CBax still hold true to show format with a very truncated review of the shite Pink Panther movie feat. Steve Martin, Beyonce and (not nearly enough) Jason Statham. Then we turn the clocks back a little to 2002 and review the opening scene of "Ghost Ship", which Bow has been obsessed with for years. After those appetizers, it's the main event: We break down our list of "Boys", "Girls" and "Old Men". These supporting scene stealers may not be first on the poster, but they are first in our hearts.

Back to our shitty horror movie roots, we're tackling a long forgotten movie that was actually a remake of the first 20 minutes of a movie from the 70s. Confused? Yeah. Join us as we discuss overused horror cliches, having a carnival for a neighbour, wind chimes being used exclusively for spooking ya, terrible running advice, when not to call someone, the most evil alias ever: Dr. Mandrakis, terrible alarm companies, awesome passwords and how not to eat a popsicle. All that plus fun facts and we give out some Tenzies! (NEXT EPISODE: "Pink Panther 2 / Opening scene of Ghost Ship / Our Boys and Girls And Old Man")

58 - Big Momma's House 2
Audiences from 2006, we hate you. JBow and CBax are back and reviewing a part 2 of which they've never seen the part one. Sadly there is not a recap montage catching us up to speed, so we fumble through the start of this movie trying to piece this all together. Listen as we discuss that, plus Bo Derek braids, how to be the world's shittiest nanny, the FBI's incompetence, a small child with a hardcore wrestling gimmick, terrible password hacking and throwing away laundry. All that plus Fun Facts and Tenzie awards! (NEXT EPISODE: When A Stranger Calls)

They also compete in the first ever "Josh Lucas Movie Showdown!" where Chris may or may not confuse him with another actor (alright alright alright). NEXT EPISODE: "Underworld: Evolution"

Happy New Year! jBow and Cbax are back in business as we kick off a brand new year of cinematic retrospectives with something disgusting, uncomfortable and difficult to watch. No it's not "Big Momma's House 2" (that's in a few weeks), this week we're doing Hostel. Join the lads as they discuss torture porn/gorno, crazy alternate endings, why neither thought they'd finish the film, achilles tendons, gross grossness, crazy unlikeable main characters, the physical embodiment of "scumbag" and how they'd react in a Hostel type situation.

Celebrating a movie "filled with terrible hair", this throwback episode was actually recorded back in 2004, and has sat in the archives until now. Joined by the specialest of special guests, Miss Stephanie Pagani, we watched and reviewed this Nicholas Cage vehicle. We discuss, in great scientific detail, how old documents are kept, why high speed chases in Washington, DC are bullshit, appreciating the gravity of situations, awful wigs, immature screenwriters and the many many deaths of Sean Bean. All that plus the IMDB parent's guide, fun facts and we give out some Tenzies.
10/31/2015 • 1 hour, 8 minutes, 20 seconds
52 - Bewitched
One of the most confusing movies we've watched for the show (maybe even moreso than Boogeyman), we sat down and watched the much maligned but partially respected Will Ferrell/Nicole Kidman remadaptation of the popular(?) tv show Bewitched. Join us as we discuss the unseen Witch Kingdom civil war, Nicole Kidman's career, Stephen Colbert's future success, how we'd test a witch, what reality the movie takes place in, waitresses with Hep C, Ferrell freakouts and how this movie, on paper, was actually kind of awesome.

Not sure what our next drunkisode will be, but one this is certain: We need to go stronger. Although our next episode is one we've been looking forward too since the show started last year....the road is over. Our next episode(s) will be a very special two part retrospective on "Batman Begins". Fuck. Yes.
9/28/2015 • 43 minutes, 49 seconds
49 - Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Episode 1)
We've been eagerly awaiting this episode all year. Not just because we have a lot to say about it or that it's the highest grossing movie of 2005, but because it is another VERY SPECIAL episode of the podcast. We didn't get drunk enough during "At The Movies: 10 Beers Later" so we decided to up the ante and go for "At The Movies: A Bottle and a Half Of Wine Each" later. The results are to be expected. So join us as we discuss Dark Side branding, poor acting (of course), the purest form of love, old robots with asthma, missed opportunities, Sith naming practices and of course, the benefits of the high ground. It's a long episode, so we split it into two parts. Be sure to listen to episode 49.5 for the final chapter of this thrilling conclusion of this...show where two friends got drunk and talked Star Wars.
9/28/2015 • 1 hour, 10 minutes, 19 seconds
48 - Mr. & Mrs. Smith
It's our sexiest episode ever! We understand that isn't a tough thing to accomplish, but when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are steaming up the screen as an IMPOSSIBLY hot married couple, it's bound to get sexy up in here. Listen as jBow and CBax discuss poor escape plans, which type of assassination company they'd like to work for, Vince Vaughn, Scandal, the benefits of human shields, double Fichtner and the sexiest movie couples of all time.

We also discuss cinematic "boys", bizarre Eminem songs, Short Circuit, best movies feeaturing ex-wrestlers, James Cromwell's epic height, the comedic genius of Terry Crewes and Stone Cold Steve Austin being horribly, HORRIBLY racist.

7/30/2015 • 1 hour, 8 minutes, 8 seconds
45 - Monster In Law
"J-Lo is box office smash" seems like something nobody has said in 10 years, so this movie definitely fits with the show theme. jBow and CBax are stupified by this failed opportunity to make one of the best horror-thrilles ever. Among other things, the fellas discuss Alias, the boquet toss in movies, gay best friend characters, censored f-words, colours worse than peach, the proper time to fire someone, bland leading men and talking during movies.

7/30/2015 • 1 hour, 33 minutes, 42 seconds
43 - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
This was SO CLOSE to being episode 42 it's not even funny. Speaking of not even funny, jBow and CBax hitch a ride to a quirky British comedy that is 90% quirky and 10% funny. Apparently the book (which Chris confirms is excellent) did not translate well. Sadly, as we watched the movie, this is not a review of the book. Listen in as we talk Sam Rockwell, Ultimate everymen, British humour, Dolphins, Whether or not Ace Ventura influenced this film, cockblocking, disappearing characters, stupid Harry Potter character names and things we cannot picture John Malkovich doing. All that plus IMDB parent's guide, Fun Facts and we give out some Tenzies. (Next Episode: "Kingdom of Heaven").
6/30/2015 • 1 hour, 18 minutes, 40 seconds

It's another episode of the podcast, starring ____ with Chris Baxter and Jordan Bowman. One of the most under the radar box office bombs in recent history (even 10 years ago), jBow and CBax travel to Sahara and the result is..."not bad caveman sounds".

Gear up for a "dick shooting, tits out, dog punching good time" that Chris loved 10 years ago but hates now (maturing tastes will do that to a guy). jBow and CBax look at this fondly remembered comic book movie and wonder what all the fuss was about? Join them as they discuss Powers Booth's usefulness, creepy age gaps, kung fu Elijah Wood and answer the age old question: what do angels smell like? All that plus a trip to a SUPER CROWDED imdb parents guide, some fun facts and they give out some Tenzies. (NEXT EPISODE: Sahara)
5/29/2015 • 1 hour, 23 minutes, 8 seconds
38 - Guess Who
Just so you're aware, this is NOT a movie adaptation of the board game. Alright, so now you are as bummed as we were when we started watching it. Things get all race relations on this episode of ATM10, as jBow and CBax navigate the complexities of interracial relationships in the modern age. NOPE! Instead we talk about Mario Kart... a lot. Also we discuss Bernie Mac's jedi powers, Ashton Kutcher's $10,000 bracelet, broccoli and how to properly say "Zoe Saldana".

5/2/2015 • 1 hour, 10 minutes, 25 seconds
36 - Robots
Robots are great movie henchmen, but not great at leading movies. jBow and CBax watch a super uninspired animated movie, and the results are as you expect: They talk about Marvel's Daredevil, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars and Futurama instead. When they are on topic, they discuss robot genetalia, awful transit infrastructure, Robin Williams' rambling and Bow's new lift goal of having a gate that looks like his face. All that plus IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we give out some Tenzies (go Tim!). (NEXT EPISODE: The Ring 2)
4/18/2015 • 1 hour, 11 minutes, 49 seconds
35 - The Pacifier
Vin Diesel is enjoying some Fast & Furious success, but 10 years ago he was wrescklessly driving a mini-van. Also, is he a Frog-man? Our second movie this year in which a badass has to take care of a bunch of kids in a family comedy, thankfully this one was slightly better thanks to the tireless work of CAPE BABY. jBow and CBax discuss many things while watching the Pacifier, including proper password procedures, letting your SEAL team nap, awful Vice Principals, how to actually pin someone in a wrestling match and falling for one of the single greatest misdirects in cinema history!

34 - Diary of a Mad Black Woman
Tyler Perry is one of the kings of Hollywood (well, Atlanta) and the first brick in that kingdom was laid a decade ago with this film. We had never seen any Tyler Perry films before, so we jumped headfirst into this world and it...was...strange. Listen as jBow and CBax discuss cross-dressing, family dance routines, singing as a gateway drug, weird proposals, Misery-ing and the curriculum of Bailiff School.

3/31/2015 • 1 hour, 9 minutes, 57 seconds
33 - Constantine
Another week, another supernatural horror film with a shocking twist. The twist? The movie is actually pretty damn good. jBow and CBax weight in on Keannu Reeves 10 some odd years before "John Wick" kicked all of our asses, and the results were solid. Listen as we discuss hell's reverse architects, what constitutes good CGI, Rachel Weisz and her amazing eyebrows, and the final phone call we'd make to each other in an emergency. All that, plus the IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we hand out some Tenzies to those deserving of such a high (made up) honor. (Next Week: Diary of a Mad Black Woman)
3/20/2015 • 1 hour, 24 minutes, 56 seconds
32 - Hitch (w/ Jen Baxter)
This is by far the realest episode of the show we've ever done, as it may as well be titled Hitch: Sibling Rivalry. jBow's girlfriend and CBax's sister joins in this week as we all watch and discuss our very different viewpoints on the Will Smith romcom "Hitch". Those viewpoints range from "It was just a light, fun movie" to "This movie is filled with garbage people, and it's bad for society". We also discuss dating, lying and Piglet from Winnie the Pooh's gender. All that plus IMDB parent's guide, fun facts and we hand out some Tenzies! (Next Episode: Constantine)

Listen as we discuss such hotly debated topics as where boogeymen hide, what our greatest fears are, what NOT to wear to your sisters funeral (spoiler, it's jeans), why warping through space and time is kind of a big deal and a new term for sheds.

We also discuss the burning question: How many 9 year olds could you fight at once? All that, plus IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we give out a load of "Tensies".
3/1/2015 • 1 hour, 12 minutes, 39 seconds

Listen as they discuss Slamball, the greatest assistant ever, gangbanging through puberty, awful Channing Tatum dialogue and traitorous cab drivers. Add to that their intense confusion over the lack of text during the ending freeze frames. All that, plus IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we give out a load of "Tensies".

27 - White Noise
New permanent co-host Chris f'n Baxter joins in as we start anew in 2015. What better way to lead things off than with Mr. Comeback himself (well, the current one anyway), Michael Keaton. See what Birdman was up to 10 years ago as the supernatural thriller "White Noise" ruled the box office. jBow and CBax discuss turtlenecks, Batman, why it matters so much that Keaton is an architect and one of the strangest twists ever. All that, plus IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we give out a load of "Tensies".

SO-LO-EPISO! Once again I find myself back against the wall with Libsyn's storage allotment, so I had to do a quickie episode by myself this week, which worked out well because this movie is arse and I don't want to drag anyone down into hell with me. I discuss Nazi's, stillborn babies, the type or horror I like, Goldeneye (briefly) and compare the awful CGI Hyenas in this movie to the CGI wolves in "The Day After Tomorrow".

Still plugging through Summer '04, and this week a fine film fellow from sunny L.A. joins me as Alex Wolfe (@alahente) Skypes in to chat about robots and Will Smith. We discuss a great many things in this super-sized episode, like robot racism, product placement, how to get a PG rating AND have violent dismemberment and Shia Labouef being awful. All that, plus we visit the IMDB parents guide, share some fun facts and hand out some awards. (NEXT EPISODE: "The Bourne Supremacy")

17 - Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (w/ Dave Sprout)
What is there to say about Anchorman? The movie that spawned several catchphrases into our lexicon and made everyone realize how much they loved lamp and feared tridents. My good friend and movie fan Dave Sprout joins me this episode to discuss a movie that doesn't really need discussing, but we do it anyway. We also discuss Anchorman 2, improvisation and the "lost movie", Wake Up Ron Burgundy. All that plus we add to the IMDB parent's guide, share fun facts and give out some awards. (NEXT EPISODE: "I,ROBOT")

16 - Spider-Man 2 (w/ Jen Baxter)
Both 2004 and 2014 had Spider-Man 2's, and both had some issues. We hindsight the hell out of Sam Raimi's and wonder aloud if it's legacy is tarnished by the bafflingly awful Spider-Man 3? We also discuss Kirsten Dunst (aka the worst), great comic book casting, how Peter Parker's life is awful and how Alfred Molina's Doc Ock is unquestionably the best Spidey villain ever. All that plus IMDB parents guide, fun facts and we give out some awards. (NEXT WEEK: Anchorman)

15 - Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story (w/ Wyatt Arndt)
"If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball", and with those Rip Tornian words of wisdom a decade ago, a sport we all played in gym class became "a thing". Wyatt Arndt, my usual co-host on "The Legion of Blogcast" joins me this week, and he brought his raging hate-on for Justin Long. In addition to that, we discuss Ben Stiller's finest role, Vince Vaughn's decade of sametitude, Skillz that Killz, the best referee actor ever, hindsighting Lance Armstrong's cameo and fucking Chuck Norris. All that plus IMDB parents guide additions, fun facts, awards and we play a game of "Ben Stiller: Hollywood Height Chart". (NEXT WEEK: Fahrenheit 9/11. You don't need to watch it)
7/1/2014 • 1 hour, 20 minutes, 9 seconds
14 - Fahrenheit 9/11 (w/ Nobody)
Part interesting documentary, part intense manipulation, this week I do a solo episode on Fahrenheit 9/11. We're going a bit out of order here, because I needed a short episode for months end, so I decided to put this out early in place of "Dodgeball" (coming Tuesday). I didn't like this movie, and it's hard to see the significance of it a decade later when Bush still got re-elected. Still, I don't like politics, and I REALLY don't like being shown graphic footage of war injuries and grieving mothers so a documentarian can get his point across, so I keep this episode brief. Also, I learn to respect R & B singer Shaggy. So that's something. (NEXT WEEK: Spider-Man 2)

13 - The Chronicles of Riddick (w/ Chris Baxter)
Rules of being a Necromonger: 1. You Keep What You Kill. 2. No Takesies Backsies. 3. Stupid Helmets are Required. Chris Baxter (@cbax) makes his return to the show as we watch and review Vin Diesel's 2004 passion project. We discuss helmets, lizard-pumas, Judi Dench, gross kissing, future technology and outrunning the sun. All that, plus we play a game of "Chronicle Wars: Riddick or Narnia?", give out some awards, share some fun facts and make some contributions to the IMDB parents guide. (NEXT WEEK: "Dodgeball").
6/20/2014 • 1 hour, 3 minutes, 12 seconds
12 - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (w/ Janine Guy)
FALCONHORSE! This week I'm joined by a Harry Potter fanatic (because I am not) as my longtime friend Janine Guy stops by to discuss the movie in which Harry Potter started to grow up. We discuss how Harry is an asshole, Draco is awesome, names are silly, adults are irresponsible and how people who look like rats, make good rats. All that, plus we add to the IMDB parents guide, look at some fun facts and give out some awards! (Next Week: The Chronicles of Riddick)
6/12/2014 • 1 hour, 29 minutes, 45 seconds
11 - The Day After Tomorrow (w/ Ryan Biech)
What happens when a rugged climatologist predicts a new ice age will happen in a hundred years or so? Well if it's a Roland Emmerich movie, chances are he's WAY wrong and it happens several days later. Ryan Biech from the "Game Time Decision" podcast (@GTDpod) joins me this week as we discuss CGI wolves, outrunning cold, Sela Ward's cougish hotness, proper character development, hypothermia and what day "The Day After Tomorrow" actually was. All that plus a trip through the IMDB parent's guide, Fun Facts and Awards. (Next Week: "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban"
6/3/2014 • 1 hour, 25 minutes, 5 seconds
10 - Shrek 2 (w/ Jen Baxter)
Remember 10 years ago, when the "Shrek" film franchise kicked ass? So do we. Take a trip back in time with Bow and returning guest host Jen Baxter as they watch a downright wonderful green ogre movie. Before Justin Timberlake and Rumpelstiltskin drove the series into the ground, Shrek 2 was a box office beast. We discuss hair (obviously), indignant furniture, ADORABLE LITTLE BOOTS and donkey/dragon cross breeding. Enjoy! (NEXT WEEK: "The Day After Tomorrow")

9 - Troy (w/ Jared Rushton)
It was a time long before Twitter, when making sure your name lived through the ages meant jump-killing everyone in sight and being the only guy around with a clean shaven face. This week, Jared Rushton joins me as we watch and review Wolfgang Peterson's (flop?) "Troy". We ended up watching the theatrical cut, which sucks because the directors cut includes more Ajax, more brutality and more boobs. But that version wasn't No.1 at the Box Office, and rules are rules. It is the will of the gods. NEXT WEEK: "Shrek 2"
5/20/2014 • 59 minutes, 42 seconds
8 - Van Helsing (w/ Chris Baxter)
Hugh Jackman and his luscious flowing hair does battle with Dracula, The Wolfman, Mr. Hyde, Igor, a trifecta of hell bitches and Frankenstein....'s monster (if you wanna be a dick about it). This week, Chris Baxter from "That Thing You Like" joins me as we watch a movie that is awful, except for one heroic cow that dared to stand up to vampiric tyranny and inspired us to keep watching the garbagewater film that officially kicked off Summer Movie Season 2004. Enjoy!
5/14/2014 • 1 hour, 4 minutes, 8 seconds
7 - Mean Girls (w/ Brian Shirlaw, Chris Baxter & Jen Baxter)
One of two movies that brought about the entire idea for this podcast, it's hard to believe it's been 10 years since Mean Girls. Joining me this week are the boys from "That Thing You Like" (Brian Shirlaw, Chris Baxter) and former guest host Jen Baxter. Listen as we discuss our favourite characters and moments from the film, as well as what it means to be "half a virgin". All that plus awards, fun facts and a trip through the IMDB parents guide. We love this movie. It's the fetchest movie there ever was. Next week: Van Helsing.
5/6/2014 • 1 hour, 29 minutes, 2 seconds
6 - Man on Fire (w/ Mike Jupp)
Denzel Washington is an alcoholic with a dark past, then stuff happens. Butt stuff. It's episode 6, and #ATM10 is taking a look at Tony Scott's revenge epic "Man on Fire". We discuss Marc Anthony's sex appeal, Radha Mitchell's accent and the fact that Dakota Fanning actually made us wish she got rescued from kidnappers. That was a high mountain for this movie to climb, but dammit, it climbed it.
4/29/2014 • 58 minutes, 19 seconds
5 - Kill Bill: Volume 2 (w/ Casey Bailey)
The roaring rampage of revenge comes to an incredibly conversational conclusion, and good buddy Casey Bailey is along for the discussion. 10 years ago, a VERY different film from the over-the-top slash fest that was "Kill Bill: Volume 1" sat atop the box office, and we dive right in. From revenge spit, to white trash oompa lumpas, to awful pimps, coffin punches, psychotic daughters and the infamous eyeball squish, we take you through the talky talky heart exploding finale of the Beatrix Kiddo saga.

4 - The Passion of the Christ (w/ Andy Shirlaw)
DISCLAIMER - I am not a religious person, neither is my guest this week, Andy Shirlaw from the 4 Eyed Forecast. Instead, we are just two guys who love movies and want to be entertained by one. It didn't really happen this time around, but hopefully you still enjoy this episode. It's okay if you didn't do the required viewing. This is a difficult movie to watch. No offence intended by any of our comments during review. Follow Andy on Twitter (@AndyShirlaw) and check out @4EyedForecast
4/14/2014 • 1 hour, 7 minutes, 35 seconds
3 - Hellboy (w/ Jen Baxter)
He's got a right hand of doom, and a left hand for guns/cigars. This week Jen Baxter joins the show for her first appearance as we discuss the No.1 movie from 10 years ago...Hellboy. We get into the use of Nazi's as antagonists, Kroenen's bad assery, apocalyptic headline timing and whether or not flood lights work in space.
4/7/2014 • 1 hour, 15 minutes, 37 seconds
2 - Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (w/ Brian Shirlaw)
We are already two episodes in, and already I have partial regrets about the premise. For the first time in history, a screenwriter had the distinction of having two movies open at No.1 at the Box Office in back to back weeks. That man was James Gunn, and unlike last week's fantastic "Dawn of the Dead", his second No.1 was "Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed" which was king a decade ago. Joining me again is Brian Shirlaw from "That Thing You Like"
3/31/2014 • 50 minutes, 23 seconds
1 - Dawn of the Dead (w/Chris Baxter, Brian Shirlaw)
It's the first episode of "At the Movies...10 Years Later", and to kick it off we have one of two movies that inspired the entire podcast. Host Jordan Bowman is joined by Brian Shirlaw and Chris Baxter of "That Thing You Like" to discuss Zack Snyder's controversial zombie opus, sleeves, and croquet mallets.
