You want a little post-Valentine’s Day romance? Here’s The Notebook. Is it good? Is it crappy? We’re not saying, but it does have a hell of a lot of kissing and feelings. It also has Sam Shepard, so that’s something. In Seen It, we talk Oscars: Men from Mars, girls from Denmark, shorts that are […]
Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
“Ladies and Gentlemen…welcome to violence!” Also, welcome to season 5, where we kick off the year with Russ Meyer’s hard-punching, back-breaking, brassiere-straining classic — Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! No squares, frails or safety-first Clydes allowed. In Seen It, we take a sharp thematic U-turn and discuss Romance: in apartments, in Rio and on the west […]

Fire up your Delorean! Strap on your hoverboard! Something something jigawatts… We’re watching Back to the Future II, a movie that for some inexplicable reason Matt and Craig haven’t seen yet. In Seen It, we discuss Jackasses, Strangers and men with variable degrees of breakable-ness.
The Great Silence
