Episode 16 - Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

On this week’s car ride home, we talk about whether you can bring a demon back from the great beyond, and if you can, would he still be funny. Stratis starts off by wanting to know why they ruined his beloved movie from the ’80s, and Tina is obsessing about the relationship between Lydia (Winona Ryder) and Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton). Both of us like Bob, the shrunken-head guy, and Tim Burton's use of old-school animation. We wrap this episode up with our first email from a listener! He tries to set us straight on the Marvel Universe, but we’re not sure if he succeeded. Come with us for the ride, just don’t say “his” name.

Episode 15 - Borderlands

On this week’s car ride home, we discuss whether Borderlands is nothing more than a live-action play-through of a video game, and if either Tina or Stratis can be called a real gamer. We cover Stratis’ love of the first three minutes, before the film devolves into a First-Person Shooter. Grab your favorite BFG and let's head to the Borderlands.

Episode 14 - Bad Boys: Ride or Die

On this week’s car ride home, we try to figure out what you can learn about a romantic relationship by pulling out your fingernails, then we see if Will Smith and Martin Lawrence can single-handedly take down the entire narco/government/police state. We both thought every actor in this movie was in their own separate, very different movie. Was it a serious cop film or a rom com or maybe a buddy comedy flick? We don’t know, but maybe you can decide. So hop into our crazy-fast pursuit car and let’s RIDE (or Die).

Episode 13 - Alien

This week we ditch the car for a walk around the block as we delve into the classic sci-fi horror film Alien (1979). Along for this walk is Tina’s chihuahua, Frankie, who tries to eat too much grass. This was Tina’s first viewing of the classic film, although she has fond memories of Disney’s Great Movie Ride in Orlando, where Sigourney Weaver’s animatronic robot leaves a lasting impression. Stratis has some serious science issues with space/time/distance, while Tina isn’t bothered by any of it. Find out if we can avoid all the Alien face huggers and chest bursters on this walk around the block.

Alien: Romulus

On this week’s car ride home, we debate whether this movie is a humanist-centered comment on our society or just a really nasty, slimy horror film. Guess who picks which. Stratis was drowsy for the first 30 minutes and then couldn’t even blink for the next 90 minutes. Tina explains her love of xenomorphs and we both talk too much about alien genitals. If you’re ready for an-amped up alien encounter, come along with us.
