Episode 23 - Venom: The Last Dance
On this week’s car ride home, we try to keep the alien symbiotes from turning us into their hosts as we discuss Venom: The Last Dance. It may be another superhero movie, but surprisingly, Tina enjoyed it and even managed to tear up when Venom gave his all to save humanity. On the other hand, Stratis, the superhero guy, was highly disappointed and wanted to go back and watch the first Venom movie instead. We both wanted more Venom/Eddie buddy-film interaction and less of a comic book end-of-the-world story. Tina makes the connection between this Venom movie and 50 Shades of Grey. Hop into the car for a ride home via the alien research station at Area 51.

Episode 22 - Anora
On this week’s car ride home, the car tries to join in on our discussion about Anora. Yet again, Tina takes Stratis to a movie with loads of nudity and tries to explain the difference between exploitation and cinematic boobs. Stratis isn’t convinced, but we both agree that Mickie Madison’s portrayal of Anora was just fantastic. Also, our favorite Voss water bottle makes a return appearance. If you’re ready to escape the Russian mob, buckle up for the car ride home.

Episode 21 - Smile 2
On this week’s car ride home, we try not to smile too much at yet another horror film, Smile 2. Naomi Scott gets a ton of respect from Tina and Stratis for her lead role in this fast-paced film. Stratis learns that horror movies can be multifaceted, who knew? Tina does a deep dive into demonic possession and ends up worrying about all the tweens who got infected. If you’re ready for blood, guts, and smiles, grab a Voss water bottle as we steer clear of the demons on the drive back to safety.

Episode 20 - Megalopolis
On this week’s car ride home, we visit the alternative world of New Rome, created by legendary Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola. The tables are turned and Stratis is the introspective movie critic while Tina is the curmudgeonly old man. Stratis gets lost in the film's “vibes” (in between short naps), while Tina thought it would have been a much better movie if she’d imbibed a few Dirty Shirley cocktails beforehand. She also finds a way to make a comparison between her favorite teenage TV series, One Tree Hill, and Coppola’s artistic creation. If you were a liberal arts major in college, come along for this in-car group discussion.

Episode 19 - Joker: Folie à Deux
On this week’s car ride home, we completely disagree on whether this Joaquin Phoenix/Lady Gaga Joker film is a deeply emotional tour-de-force or just a hack film. Stratis gets philosophical when he says “Truth is whatever the movie does to you,” and Tina goes off on a cigarette-smoke-and-lighting tangent. If you want to find out how they made a psychotic murder movie into a musical, this is the car ride for you.

Episode 18 - Saturday Night
On this week’s car ride home, Saturday Night allows Stratis to relive his youth through the lens of a favorite late-night show that drove ’70s popular culture – Saturday Night Live. On the other hand, Tina is forced to endure a lackluster biopic that she compares to a superhero movie. Comedic genius George Carlin is poorly impersonated by Stratis as he gives a shoutout to a childhood friend. If you’re of a certain age and want to take a ride back to late-night New York City, hop in and give this episode a listen.

Episode 17 - The Substance
On this week’s car ride home, we debate whether The Substance is a masterpiece or a monstrosity, and we both have strong opinions on which one it is. Stratis wants to know why his daughter took him to a movie with so much female nudity, while Tina was just enjoying the vibes. Somehow we go off on a tangent about the cars in the movie, and Tina finds a way to make the connection between aging actors and vintage vehicles. If you’re ready to dive into the fading beauty of Hollywood actors and the lengths to which they’ll go to stay youthful, grab an injection of The Substance and come along on this disturbing car ride home.

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. - Laat meer zien
