Episode 83: WandaDoubleVision

 

Scott is drunk and in need of a good intervention, but Jeff isn't about to be distracted by some Afterschool Special when he has an important confession to make: he's been cheating on Ron Moore's Battlestar Galactica with another series!

Episode 73: Harley Quinn Vs. The Court Jester

CLOWNS GET DOWN in this UFC-style cage match fight between Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, and Danny Kaye as The Court Jester.

Episode 61: Avengers: Endgame

Jeff and Scott visit Star Wars Celebration, then drop in unannounced on several TV science fiction franchises because who can stop them? No one!

[Insert maniacal cackle here]

Then the New Movie Crew returns from a flaky death for a super spoilery discussion of Avengers: Endgame.

Episode 47: Avengers: Infinity War: Colon Style!

Corellian freighter jack-knifed off the 101 today, road closures to follow...*

Jeff drags Scott to a 12-Step program for people who procrastinate until their DVRs explode, while the New Movie Crew takes on Avengers: Infinity War. As with all our Marvel movie reviews, stick around for the post credits sequence.

Slumgullion Episode 45: Black Panther

In Part 1, Jeff and Scott grief counsel each other through their co-dependent relationships with Star Wars and Star Trek, and somehow wind up awarding a pair of breasts to Dr. McCoy. In Part II, the New Movie Crew takes on Black Panther, and the fur really flies.

And check out the bonus video below.




Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, Black Panther director Ryan Coogler, and star Chadwick Boseman make a surprise appearance at the opening night screening at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. At least, it was a surprise to us.

Supermen Against the Orient (1973)

Jeff and Scott are joined by distinguished porn researcher Indy McDaniel to discuss zombies and superheroes, Klingon breasts, The Disaster Artist, the Forgotten Shannons of Softcore,  I, Tonya, why Star Wars Battlefront II is like a casino, but not a nice one on the Las Vegas strip, but more like a crappy one next to a gas station and diner on a frontage road off I-15. For the Unknown Movie Challenge we suck it up and take on the 1973 Hong Kong-Italian kung fu superhero smash-up, Supermen Against the Orient, which has a theme song you have to hear to believe. And believe me, you're gonna hear it.

Episode 41: Justice League

Or: A Meditation on the Nature of Heroism and Invisible Mustache Rides.

Scott and Jeff discuss the new Star Wars movie, Han Solo: Why?, then make Star Trek: Discovery and The Orville square off and fight like Rock 'Em, Sock 'Em Robots. Afterwards, the New Movie Crew gives Justice League a lot of mixed signals, but decide they might go home with it anyway because it's almost closing time, when Jeff is suddenly sucked away by a storm like Dorothy Gale.

Larry Blamire Versus Thor!

This episode we're joined by Writer-Director-Actor-Author-Human-Hyphen Larry Blamire (Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, Dark and Stormy Night) to talk about his two-fisted pulp novel, Doc Armstrong: Suburb on the Edge of Never, which has recently been awarded a coveted Third Fist by the National Association of Pulp Producers' Sub-Committee on Fist Metrics.

We also chat about Larry's graphic novel series, Steam Wars, his book of Western horror stories, Tales of the Callamo Mountains, and its upcoming sequel, and his three alternate universe dictionaries, Larry Blamire's Blammary: Terms You May Not Know: With Unrelated Illustrations #1, #2, and #3.

Also, a whole lot of goofy stuff, and even a few tough, probing, thoughtful questions, but the answers are hard to understand, because everybody's eating scones.

Then we make a seamless transition to the Unknown Movie Challenge, as the New Movie Crew has its legally binding say on Thor: Ragnarok.

Dear Spike And Cronenberg: We're Sorry

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 10: Sickies!

You may have thought Jeff and Scott were abducted by aliens but the truth is much worse. There is tragedy, there is pain, there is discussion that bounces all over the pop culture landscape, including thoughts on Wonder Woman, Marvel vs. DC, MST3K old and new, House of Cards, the Black Panther trailer and most importantly, their mutual love of the classic Universal monster films and Jeff's total hatred of The Mummy.

Why Aren't Any of the Other Kids Mexican?

In Season 2, Episode 5, Jeff and Scott are joined by the New Movie Crew (John Szura, Blanche Ramirez and Indy McDaniel) for an in depth, spoiler-filled analysis of Logan. Mary Clevenger joins Jeff for their continuing Socratic dialogue about Bones. Plus! A super special fudgey crunchy chocolatey coco chat at the end.

The Slumgullion Episode 20: Doctor Strange

Or "Peter Hooten is an Earthbound God"

Special Guests: Mary Clevenger, John Szura, Blanche Ramirez and ?

Music by Lynn Ahrens

You may have thought the recent election is the most surprising thing to ever happen, but this episode actually has it beat.

It’s the New Movie Crew (Coming right at you!)! Today’s topic: Doctor Strange.  Scott, Jeff and Mary handle the non spoiler discussion after Jeff proves he knows very little about Harry Potter.  There is an educational break.  The SPOILER discussion of Doctor Strange features Scott, John, Blanche, and two immortal alien stoners.

That’s right!  THE ORIGINAL MIKE AND IKE ARE BACK!

Although they’re not really here, as you’ll hear.

Strap yourselves in, nuggets.  This is an E Ticket.

Slumgullion Special “No Bat Glove, No Bat Love”

Featuring the New Movie Crew: Mary Clevenger, Blanche Ramirez and John Szura

Song by Nick Gage and Scott Lamps

Five intelligent, opinionated film fans, two DC Films (The Killing Joke and Suicide Squad), and a song that would have made the titular fight in Batman v Superman a million times better.  ‘Nuff said.

The Slumgullion Episode 5 “Zack Snyder Hates Jesus”

Starring Jeff Holland and Scott Clevenger

With Indy McDaniel, Mary Clevenger, John Szura, Blanche Ramirez

Ok, maybe he doesn’t, but after listening to this in depth analysis of Batman V Superman, you may believe it. At the very least, you will believe that Zack Snyder hates film audiences…and joy.

Holland V Clevenger: Dawn of Podcast

Opening Theme:  “Super Friends” from Holy Musical B@tman written by Nick Gage and Scott Lamps

Jeff and Scott really, really want to go in depth on Batman vs Superman and a full episode  (with guests!) about it is coming.  For now, here is a half hour tease.  There are spoilers in the second half but you are warned ahead of time.
