Is It for Reel

IIFR E148: The Burbs

Our podders are dreaming of the suburbs... white picket fences, BBQ's with the neighbors, and murder. That's right we watched The Burbs.  So stifle your rage at your neighbors lawn, get a hobby other than peeping, and remember hell is other people whether it's murderous psychos or just Steve who always leaves his trash cans in front of your driveway! Freakin Steve!!!!! About a nine on the tension scale, Rube!!!!

 

 

IIFR E147: Death Becomes Her

Spring is the time of rebirth, frenemieship, and Camp with a capital 'C'. Thusly, our podders put on their fanciest lounge leotards and watched Death Becomes Her.   So go get a spray (paint) tan, strengthen up your neck, and read the fine print before you go drinking anything at Isabella Rosellini's pool parties! Bottom's up!!!!!!

IIFR E146: Say Anything

Our podders spent all winter strengthening their delts for boombox season and you know the whole time they watched Say Anything.  So bust out your trench coat (it works for every social occasion), practice your graduation a cappella song, and say it with me 'mixtapes always make more romantic gifts then pens'!  And don't you go being fooled by those puppy dog eyes.  Joe lies when he cries!!!

IIFR E145: Twister

Our podders have never been afraid of Big Corporate Weather, so they bravely watched Twister! Grab all your famous character actor interns (like all of them), bring a duffle bag of white tank tops, We're gonna discover a little bit about love, the probability of 5 twisters coming at ya at once, and how this was a lesbian movie all along.  So shout out your favorite tornado lingo, you know it by heart! "It’s a sidewinder; We got sisters; They’re in the bear cage; The cone of silence; They're gonna punch the core"

IIFR E144: Fame

We're here to talk about the tune that has been in your brain since the day you were born.  That's right we watched Fame and we want to live forever!  So let's travel back to 1980 New York City, where the streets was gritty, the band geeks, chorus nerds, and dance freaks were battling it out to see who could rule the art WORLD, and of course everyone's dreams come true.  (checking my notes and that should read broken dreams).  Watch out, monologues coming!!!!

IIFR E143: Mean Girls

With the new musical Mean Girls coming out our podders decided to make fetch a thing.  Well maybe not but they watched the original Mean Girls so close enough.  Grab your mathaletes jacket (yo, they went for the leather!), adorn your spine halo with flowers, and be sure to do a mic drop before your trust fall (Janis Rules!!!!!).  So hurry up and listen to the pod, Damien cannot stop this car.  He has a curfew and he wants his pink shirt back!!!!!

IIFR E142: Gattaca

It's 2024, it's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life and we've got slicked back hair.  That's right our podders watched Gattaca.  So head on down to men's warehouse to pick up your space suit, don't leave the house without a few vials of your besties hair and fingernails, and bring a towel because you know there will be a swim off!!!

IIFR E141: A Christmas Prince

Tired of hanging out with your lame family over the holidays?  Then come hang out with us as we watch the OG cheesy Christmas movie.  That’s right we watched A Christmas Prince.  Is the plot so lame it’s lame or does this secret gem deserve an Oscar for ev-er-y-thing!  Escape your aunt’s figgy pudding, fire up your Netflix, push play when we say go, and join your favorite podcasters to hurl quips at the screen Mystery Science Theater 3000 style.  To the dungeons!!!

IIFR E140: While You were Sleeping

Holidays got you down?  Having to work on Christmas? Well, just follow Sandy B's lead and hit the como ward looking for hotties.  That's right we watched While You Were Sleeping.  So skip out on work (A.I. is just going to start doing it anyway), pay some local punks to push your crush onto the subway tracks, and then just kinda go with it.  You'll be married and happy by National Bean Day (that's Jan 6th for all you non bean heads).  Happy Holidays!!!!!

IIFR E139: Grumpy Old Men

They say he comes for us all and he muses whether this day or the next he will draw nigh. We are of course talking about the Grumpy Goose! Yup we watched Grumpy Old Men.  So batten down your earflaps, check the back seat for fishy hitchhikers and get ready for a whole fishing shed full of Minnesotaness.  Putz! Moron!
