Oz and Curtis are packing up the projector, staring at the dust motes in the wind, and wondering where the hell everyone went to break down Peter Bogdanovich’s hauntingly beautiful Coming-of-Age Drama: The Last Picture Show!
Set in the desolate, wind-swept town of Anarene, Texas, in the early 1950s, the film follows high school seniors Sonny (Timothy Bottoms) and Duane (Jeff Bridges) as they navigate the aimlessness of youth. Between the pool hall, the local diner, and the fading allure of the town’s only movie house, they find themselves entangled in the complicated, often tragic lives of the town's adults—including the world-weary Sam the Lion (Ben Johnson) and the manipulative Jacy Farrow (Cybill Shepherd).
We break down the film’s stark perfection: the choice to film in gorgeous, high-contrast Black and White, the incredible breakout performances from a legendary young cast, the screenplay’s brutal honesty about sex and social stagnation, and the film’s status as a cornerstone of the New Hollywood movement. Is The Last Picture Show the ultimate Texas Cinema tragedy and a profound Cult Classic, or just a movie that proves the only thing lonelier than a small town is being the last one left in it? Tune in for our full The Last Picture Show 1971 movie review!
If you’re into analyzing character-driven dramas, appreciating the artistry of classic cinematography, or listening to two dudes who would definitely panic if they were stuck in a town with only one pool table, this episode is for you.

There, she witnesses the life of Sandie (Anya Taylor-Joy), a dazzling wannabe singer whose glamorous world slowly spirals into a horrific nightmare. As the past and present begin to bleed together, Eloise must uncover a dark secret before the ghosts of Soho consume her entirely.
We break down the film’s sensory overload: the incredible, mirror-perfect choreography, the career-defining screen presence of Anya Taylor-Joy, the Giallo-inspired lighting and camerawork, and the film’s sharp critique of "the good old days."

Oz and Curtis are nursing a drink, checking for dead squirrels in the car, and wondering where the hell the cigarettes went to break down the cynical, stylish Action Thriller: The Last Boy Scout!
Washed-up private investigator Joe Hallenbeck (Bruce Willis) is a disgraced former Secret Service agent whose life is falling apart. When a simple protection job goes sideways, he is forced to team up with the client's boyfriend, disgraced former pro quarterback Jimmy Dix (Damon Wayans). The unlikely duo stumbles onto a massive conspiracy involving corrupt football owners, legalized gambling, and political assassination that leads to one of the most violent, quotable climaxes in cinema history.
We break down the film’s essential ingredients: the machine-gun Shane Black dialogue, the stunning, high-contrast visual style of director Tony Scott, the surprisingly sharp chemistry between Willis and Wayans, and the film's total disregard for subtlety or rules. Is The Last Boy Scout an undervalued Buddy Cop Movie and a must-see Cult Classic, or just a movie that proves if you touch Joe Hallenbeck again, he will kill you?

Who is the Master? Oz and Curtis are practicing their moves, checking their chopstick skills, and hoping they don't have to fight The Shogun of Harlem to break down Berry Gordy's definitive 80s Cult Classic: The Last Dragon!
Leroy Green (Taimak), known as "Bruce Leroy," is a shy, skilled martial artist living in New York who is on a quest to achieve the final level of mastery known as "The Glow." His journey to find the true master is interrupted by two equally awesome villains: the ruthless arcade mogul Eddie Arkadian, and the scene-stealing, self-proclaimed martial arts tyrant, Sho'nuff (Julius Carry III).
We break down the film’s electric energy: the incredible 80s Soundtrack (DeBarge! Stevie Wonder! Vanity!), the legendary, over-the-top villain performance by Sho'nuff ("Kiss my Converse!"), the iconic final battle, and the movie's surprisingly heartfelt message about self-belief.
