Not Your Father's Movies

CAR MOVIES: Speed Racer (2008)

The third and perhaps most surprising installment in our CARS series (as in movies WITH cars, not the Cars movies) is Speed Racer!

If you have seen this movie then you will understand when we warn you this episode is fast, exciting, and a little all over the place. We grapple with our opinions - is this art for art's sake? Who was the intended audience for this movie? Was there an intended audience for this movie? And that is just during lap one.

Please buckle up and join us for this fun and exciting conversation. We promise if things crash and burn, the worst that can happen is you will bounce away in a soft cushy bubble.

GO SPEED GO!!!!

CAR MOVIES: Speed (1994)

Is there anything more "dad" than a car? Or a bus? Or Freeways?

No there is not. 

We are tackling some of our favorite tire-squealin' movies. The rubber really meets the asphalt in this series! (heh)

 

Today we are talkin' Speed! The Keanu Reeves classic of not trying to hit everything on the road. We get into some arguments in this one. Namely about freeways. (seriously though, how does NO-ONE know that the freeway isn't finished?) We talk about the good ol' 90s movie days, back when you could sit your butt down and just enjoy bad guys bein' bad and good guys bein' good. This is a really fun episodes and we hope you enjoy it!

CHRONOLOGICAL CROWE: Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)

The final episode of our Chronological Crowe series has finally arrived! It has been travelling all the way from the far side of the world, survived many naval battles, and maybe even had brain surgery.

We discuss many topics regarding leadership, pride, choosing the lesser of two weevils - we get deep!

We can't believe how amazingly this movie has withstood the test of time.

And finally, a thank you to Russell Crowe for taking us on this journey through the past 4000 years. It has been an amazing journey and I am sure we will be back to continue it with you into the 20th and 21st centuries!

Hope you enjoy listening!

CHRONOLOGICAL CROWE: Robin Hood (2010)

Continuing on our journey through time, history, grit, grime, and glory - we have our next incarnation of our Gruff Australian hero... ROBIN HOOD.

 

Has this movie stood the test of time?

 

Let's be honest, I think most of us forgot about it until now. BUT NOT DAN! 

 

Also as we've spoken about in the past our podcast has some trouble with our sense of the space-time continuum and so the future series mentioned at the end of the episode here MAY OR MAY NOT come soon. 

 

WE SHALL SEE. Thanks so much for listening!

Watch-Along: MORBIUS (2022)

Surprise episode everybody!

 

In honor of us launching our new Patreon, and in honor of our highest tier member Sirr, we decided to do a watch-along of MORBIUS, the newest Sony entry into the kinda-Spiderman-kinda-not universe! A movie well loved by Sirr that Mike and Vito had not seen, they decided to record a live, synced-up watch-along of the movie. This is an episode best played while you are also watching the movie to hear their live reactions to the events unfolding in the epic tale of the LIVING VAMPIRE!

 

In the future, special unorthodox episodes like this will be launched exclusively on the Patreon page. A place where we dads go to pod about whatever weird topics are on our minds, but for a limited time those episodes will live here, on our main feed for all to enjoy. Please give it a listen and let us know what you think!

CHRONOLOGICAL CROWE: Gladiator (2000)

"Are you not entertained?!?"

Russell Crowe is back for what is his most acclaimed movie, Gladiator! Not only critically acclaimed, this movie also has some deep roots in our hosts' nostalgia. We talk about our experiences as teenagers watching this movie for the first time as well as other 'swords and sandals' type movies.

Are we supposed to be entertained by the heads rolling on the screen? Does this make us just as bad as the romans watching real heads roll in the coliseum? We try to tackle these and other deep questions that are enough to make our own heads roll.... 

So sit back, relax, run your hand through some wheat and click play on this episode. We hope you enjoy!
