Sat, 10 Dec 2022 18:58:00 +0000

Fox's X-Men movie franchise grew up a bit as the years went on, but in 2017, it skipped right to its senior years with Logan. Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Dafne Keen, Stephen Merchant and others put in stellar performances in a comic book movie that deconstructs itself in the best way.

The next episode will be: Die Hard!

Sat, 12 Nov 2022 03:37:00 +0000

Sat, 22 Oct 2022 20:25:00 +0000

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind stars Jim Carrey exploring his more dramatic side as he tries to erase his memories of Kate Winslet. I mean, she did it first. Written by Charlie Kaufman and directed by Michael Gondry, it's a good film, Brent.

TJM: There Will Be Blood Movie Review

Fri, 14 Oct 2022 23:40:00 +0000

Hey it's Dan!

TJM: Primer Movie Review

Sat, 01 Oct 2022 21:33:00 +0000

Primer is one of, if not THE best movies about time travel ever made. Written, directed, produced, edited and scored by Shane Carruth, it features mind-melting twists, turns, and loop-de-loos. But does the fact that it requires a plot diagram mean that it's a GOOD movie?

The next episode will be: WE STILL DON'T KNOW YET, we'll update this video when we know, OR follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TJMpod

TJM: Galaxy Quest Review

Fri, 16 Sep 2022 19:57:00 +0000

TJM: The Rings of Power ep1 &2 Review

Mon, 12 Sep 2022 17:09:00 +0000

Amazon Prime Video's Lord of the Rings show - the most expensive show ever - is finally here! It's been review-bombed, it's been accused of being overly woke, and now it's going to be mercilessly reviewed by a trio of pseudo nerds. Gandalf help us all. (also, at the end of the episode we talk about the unreleased episode we recorded last week)

The next episode will be: Galaxy Quest (1999)!

TJM: The Master Review

Fri, 26 Aug 2022 20:36:00 +0000

You'd be hard-pressed to find a film with a more talented cast. Joaquin Phoenix and Phillip Seymore Hoffman star in this CULT classic from Paul Thomas Anderson (Boogie Nights, There Will be Blood). If you really dig the Scientology aspects of the film, check out the documentary Going Clear- you will poop your brain.

P.S. sorry for the weird video artifact! Enjoy 2 minutes of Jake Bellavance 💃
