On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are trying to foil the plans the greatest criminal mastermind of its generation. We watched the 1993 film from Nick Park, Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers.

It’s all fun and cheese until some nefarious penguin moves in. We feel for poor Gromit. He just wants to live his life and feel some well-earned appreciation from his pal Wallace. Instead, he’s got to foil a freaking diamond heist.

We’re continuing our month of short films with one of the best ever made. The folks at Aardman really outdid themselves with this one!

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are resisting fascism wherever and whenever it pops up its evil head. We watched the 2020 film by Aneil Karia, The Long Goodbye.

Despite its impressive awards run, despite its star power, and even despite the fact that it’s a work of fiction filmmaking, it’s important to internalize the subtitle to this episode. What we see in this short film can absolutely happen wherever you are.

We’re starting this month of amazing short films with a heavy one, but it’s more important than ever these days. We encourage everyone to give this one a watch.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are engaging in some extremely questionable sports activities. We watched the 2005 film from Barry W. Blaustein, The Ringer.

Who would have thought that a movie about a down on his luck man pretending to be intellectually disabled so he can enter and win the Special Olympics would not only be worth a couple chuckles, but also be heartwarming.

But desperate times calls for desperate measures for Steve Barker, I guess? Nah, we don’t condone that behavior, which is why it’s rounding out our fucked-up movies month!

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are going to find a better therapist. STAT! We watched the 2009 film from Lars von Trier, Antichrist.

You know you’re in for a rough time when you’ve lost your child in a tragic accident, experience wild hallucinations in the middle of a creepy forest, and, to top it all off, toss in some extreme body mutilation.

Oh, is this one part of our “fucked-up movies” month? How could you tell? We’re keeping it going strong with one of the more disturbing movies ever made. Enjoy!

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are out for revenge after being locked up for way too damn long. We watched the 2003 film from Park Chan-wook, Oldboy.

I think it’s safe to say that this is the only movie in existence that suggests that being forcibly imprisoned for fifteen years without any explanation is somehow not the worst thing that could happen to a person. It’s quite the feat.

If you thought that our previous fucked-up movie episode was, indeed, really messed-up, then prepare yourself for this one. It’s a heck of a wild ride.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are fighting for our lives against two sadistic boys in short-shorts and white gloves. We watched the 1997 film from Michael Haneke, Funny Games.

Fair warning to all the murderous monsters in psychotic golf attire out there: if any of you come to either Steven’s or my house asking for any amount of eggs, you’re going to be run off our respective properties.

We’re not joking around about that after watching this upsetting film. It’s a perfect start to our month full of “fucked-up movies.” Oh, what a month it’s going to be!

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are wading into problematic, but still somehow romantic waters. We watched the 2016 movie from Michael Tiddes, Fifty Shades of Black.

And by romantic, we mean “romaaantic?” Maybe? If you squint really hard and ignore all the racist stuff. Because when you do that, what you have left is a ridiculous story about a sadistic man-child and the woman who just wants to be loved while have a chair broken over her ass.

And in the end, isn’t that what we all want out of life? This month’s B-movie brings up those tough questions, along with a ranking of brilliant, a flunder, or the dreaded blunder.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are improving the lives of others in mischievous ways. We watched the 2001 film from Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Amélie.

Ah, what must it be like to be young, in love, and in Paris? If, like me, you’ve ever wondered life could be like, then Amélie is here to answer that question for you. Much like the charming character herself!

We’ve got a bona-fide classic here, folks. One of the sweetest movies ever made. It’s on our lists of best movies ever made. Is it on yours, too?
