Wednesday Aug 10, 2022
Wednesday Aug 10, 2022
Shanley has spun 'I Was in the Pictures!', a category in which the spinner chooses an old timey movie star and explores their filmography. Overwhelmed with the guilt and shame of having chosen some of this season's greatest stinkers, Shanley tries to redeem herself by picking something worth watching. Will she succeed? Find out on this week's selection episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel.

Sunday Jul 31, 2022
After a long impromptu hiatus the crew is back in a huge way, this time to review Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021). In this week's review episode we ponder big questions like 'What's the best way to adapt a video game to film?', 'How does the pacing of a video game translate to screen?', and 'Do we remember much of this movie we saw three months ago?' All these deep conversations and more in this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Wednesday Apr 27, 2022
Since the early 90's Hollywood has tried to adapt (or afapt?) popular video game properties to film. It usually doesn't go so well. Matt spun the exciting (if misspelled) Video Game Afaptation category and now has to choose from three decades worth of material that range from outrageously bad to only just sort of bad. Are you game for this episode?!

Wednesday Apr 27, 2022
FOR MATURE LISTENERS ONLY!
This week the crew watches 1999's iconically raunchy coming of age film American Pie. This week's episode is full of the hosts exploring their own history with this film as well as their own sexual experiences. Much like American Pie itself, this episode is a solid balance between sensuality and sentiment. Listen for yourself if you dare!

Wednesday Apr 13, 2022
Wednesday Apr 13, 2022
Four-time 'Movie Jar' spinner, Shanley has been forced to break her method of nominations. Instead of her customary five nominees, this week she only has three from which to choose--Batman Forever, Tower Heist, and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Matt and Jimi feel absolutely certain that they know what she'll choose. Do you?!

The Mummy (1999)
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
When Matt chooses 1999's The Mummy for Strictly Shanley, the Wheelhouse is full of a mixture of elation and irritation. Jimi, who hates The Mummy perhaps because he doesn't have a soul, starts off this episode at a high 11 and continuously becomes more enraged. Matt and Shanley, however, are filled with nostalgic glee. Will this late 90's adventure comedy be the chasm that tears the podcast apart?! Find out on this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Ep. 38 - Strictly Shanley
Wednesday Apr 06, 2022
Wednesday Apr 06, 2022
Matt spun this week and got Strictly Shanley, the category in which Shanley has free and total reign over the nominees. To make matters worse, this time, Matt doesn't even know the nominees prior to recording. Shanley's latest selections have been some of the crew's least enjoyed movies lately, so will this continue Shanley's unholy tyranny? Find out by listening in to this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

You know the movie, you know the influence it's had on film and pop culture, maybe you've even heard a podcast or two talking about it, but never before this episode have you heard three people really break down the deep issues that matter in James Cameron's 1984 masterpiece The Terminator. In our post watch discussion, we'll speculate on the origins of the stains on Reese's sweats, and criticize the packaging of Ginger's bread. The crew really gives this movie the fine-toothed examination for which the world has long awaited. Tune in and hear it for yourself!
