THE FOG v. VAMPIRES: JOHN OF CARPENTER - EP 74

10/31/2017
Happy Halloween everyone! So over here at MRML we're watching a little John Carpenter today, but we thought we'd stay away from the obvious stuff like The Thing and Halloween and see if we can talk you into one of the many other awesome flicks in his catalogue. Crystal wants you to take a look back at 1998's VAMPIRES, while Trevor from Terror in Toronto suggests revisiting 1980's THE FOG. Who is your vote with? Let us know @MRMLpodcast on twitter!

10/29/2017
Some of our MRML panelists are enjoying some Alfred Hitchcock suspense to get ready for Halloween and they're going to try to talk you into doing the same. Danny has selected 1948's "ROPE", while Devon has selected 1963's The Birds... it's also worth noting that the two have made their picks for very different reasons. Let us know who's advise you took by tweet or DM @mrmlpodcast on twitter!

IT, OR PENNYWISE IS A HELL OF A DRUG! - EP 72

9/19/2017
Nic and Brandon take a look at horror's newest box-office darling, "IT". If we've learned anything from the IT(2017), it's that clowns are super creepy, kids swearing is always hilarious, and cocaine is a hell of a drug. There are differences between the book and the movie; are they improvements, or simply creative choices by the team behind the film? Do we care? Can the Muschietti siblings continue their cinematic winning streak into the sequel, "IT: Chapter Two"? Who knows... we sure as hell don't.

OH NO, KIDS MOVIES! - PREVIEW: EMOJI MOVIE?

8/31/2017
While MRML is on hiatus take a listen to an early preview of "Oh No, Kids Movies!", Paula's new podcast for parents and lovers/haters of children's film and television that just can't take the repetitive viewings anymore and need to vent. The show launches mid-September and will be available on iTunes, GooglePlay Music, Soundcloud, Stitcher and every other podcatcher that you can imagine! Keep an eye for details over at OhNoKidsMovies.com, and join the Facebook Group to share your thoughts and kids movie stories with other parents and child caregivers. ON THIS EPISODE: It's okay if you're still trying to rationalize the EMOJI MOVIE's existence. Yes, it's low hanging fruit. Yes, the social commentary it attempts is probably over a year too late, but at least they can apparently round up a decent voice cast and carry a big budget. So let's talk about this soulless cash machine for studio execs and try to come to terms with the reality that a sequel or spin off isn't out of the question. With kids being overwhelmed with product tie-ins from clothing to fast-food meal toys, it's almost certain that this movie will be a thorn in our side well past the upcoming holiday season. So this movie sucks, and the kids seem to love it... Let's, us parents, have some fun at the film's expense. Also, who is the little dude that comes out of the bartender's back? Spin-off material anyone? "This summers best bartender stirs up some action and changes the way we see the service industry forever in... Back Man!"

When Devon and Jesse look back at their high school days and Matt from the crossover podcast is thinking Dorsia... This very special FIRST EVER LIVE TAPING of MRML!

7/19/2017
Nic, Abdullah and Brandon discuss the latest incarnation of everyone's favorite web-slinger, SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING.

ALIEN COVENANT, I GUESS... - EP 68

6/21/2017
Okay.. So for the sake of transparency, we actually forgot that we recorded this episode. Brent had some strong opinions of this movie, Paula was confused, and Brandon was void of any emotions. All that being said, it was a surprisingly fun talk to have about a movie we didn't really have a lot of fun with. If you feel like talking about Alien: Covenant, you know how to reach us... but we'd much prefer to talk about ANY of the other Alien flicks.

It's Brandon's birthday, so let's dust off the VHS collection and get into 1986's Highlander. East, Devon, and Brandon get a little carried away with this Sci-fi/Action franchise starter; Ramirez conspiracy analogies, the Kurgan's weird sexual predilections, How to deter Christopher Lambert from trying to breastfeed, and the acoustics of Sean Connery's bathroom are just a few of the topics that may or may not come up in this discussion(spoiler: they totally will come up). Also, Devon pitches his idea for "Top Gun 2: The Goosening". There can be only one!(... And there probably should've only been one.)

GHOST IN THE SHELL - EP 61

4/11/2017
Is it just us or did there seem to be a lot of people with harsh things to say about GHOST IN THE SHELL leading up to it's release? But with the film now in theaters, it seems as though the negative chatter has quieted and is being overtaken by a positivity around this visually-ambitious live-action adaptation of the classic manga and anime film/TV franchise. So is the film any good? Devon, Abdullah and Brandon get into the film in detail (so, SPOILER WARNING) and through the course of their discussion, find their answer to that question.
