We Paid To See ThisEp 125: The Great Big Spectacular Goodbye For Now Show.The time has come to say farewell, each moment we’ve spent sure has been swell. We’ve laughed, we’ve sang, we’ve seen some flicks, but mostly we’ve just talked about [male flesh meat]. We be reviewing two films before taking a long, much needed hiatus; addiction drama ‘Beautiful Boy’ (Timothée Chalamet, Steve Carell, Maura Tierney, Amy Ryan), and Luca Guadagnino’s update of the Italian horror film, ‘Suspiria’ (Dakota Johnson, Tilda Swinton, Chloe Grace Moretz, Mia Goth). Old friends stop by. We derail the conversations. It’s business as usual. Thanks so much for sticking with us. It’s...2018-10-301h 06We Paid To See ThisEp 124: Halloween, Mid 90's & Can You Ever Forgive Me?We set the mood and keep it rude this week, while we review the new Danny McBride/David Gordon Green ‘Halloween’ (Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer, Andi Matichak), the Oscar worthy ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?’ (Melissa McCarthy, Richard E. Grant, Dolly Wells) and Jonah Hills’ directorial feature debut ‘mid90s’ (Sunny Suljic, Katherine Waterston, Lucas Hedges). Tis the season to run down a list of the highest grossing horror films of all time and throw some love at John Carpenter’s soundtrack work. You bet we mention ‘Your Highness’. On a personal note, when I typed the title of this ep...2018-10-231h 13We Paid To See ThisEp 123: A Star Is Born, First Man & Bad Times at the El RoyaleOutside the streets have gone mad, and between the two of us we spend the equivalent of a day at the theater this week. Reviews include, Damien Chazelle’s ‘First Man’ (Ryan Gosling, Claire Foy, Kyle Chandler), Drew Goddard’s ‘Bad Times at the El Royale’ (Jeff Bridges, Cynthia Erivo, Jon Hamm, Dakota Johnson), and the fourth iteration of ‘A Star is Born’ (Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper, Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Elliott). We talk dong, Hemsworths, and show Buzz Aldrin the door. We close the show with some good, old fashioned email readin’.2018-10-1658 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 122: Mandy, Thriller 3D and The MegIt’s a short, campy, schlocky week this go around. We review Panos Cosmatos’ dystopian, revenge film ‘Mandy’ (Nicolas Cage, Andrea Riseborough, Linus Roache, Bill Duke), and shark-centric, monster movie ‘The Meg’ (Jason Statham, Bingbing Li, Rainn Wilson, Ruby Rose). Darren gives ‘The House with a Clock in Its Walls’ a box office boost, just to check out the IMAX 3D release of Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’, and Anthony skips town again. The world’s greatest Erik Estrada joke gets highlighted.2018-10-0929 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 121: Assassination Nation & Michael Moore Fahrenheit 11/9Singing genitalia, Anthony’s new catchphrase, and Darren’s post performance celebration. This week’s reviews include Michael Moore’s political followup ‘Fahrenheit is 11/9’ and Sam Levinson’s social critique, ‘Assassination Nation’ (Odessa Young, Suki Waterhouse, Hari Nef, Abra). Maude Apatow impresses and Bill Skarsgard is in everything EXCEPT True Blood. We rundown a list of our favorite sports announcers, and shoot hot, Halloween juice all up in your furniture. 2018-10-0257 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 120: Lizzie and more (or less)We’re short, we’re sweet, we’re taking a week, but that doesn’t mean we’re leaving you completely review-less. We chat about the latest Lizzie Borden film, ‘Lizzie’ (Kristen Stewart, Chloe Sevigny, Fiona Shaw), get our hacking rhymes straight, and never fail to mention the old True Blood. Plus we got offered a pretty bad deal after bars closed the other night, involving an exchange of stolen pizza knots for illicit things. Tune in to find out what, who and wheyey!2018-09-2519 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 119: A Simple Favor & Susanne Bartsch: On TopTraffic transgressions, driveway tantrums, and a potential first class ticket to internet infamy. We review two films, the socialite documentary ‘Susanne Bartsch: On Top’, and Paul Feig’s comedic thriller, ‘A Simple Favor’ (Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively, Henry Golding). We croon that sweet, sweet Gin Blossom-y sound, drown our sorrows in tequila, and keep the vibe generally loopy. Don't get emotional, baby. 2018-09-1842 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 118: The Nun & Operation FinaleOur review of ‘The Nun’ is probbably scarier than the actual movie, but still, we saw it so you don’t have to. Corin Hardy directed this next installment of ‘The Conjuring’ franchise - starring Demián Bichir, Taissa Farmiga, Jonas Bloquet, Sandra Teles, Charolotte Hope and way too many nuns. We also caught the biopic based on the catpure and trial of ‘Adolp Eichman’, the monster referred to as the architect of the holocaust. Directed by Chris Weitz and starring Oscar Isaac, Ben Kingsley, Mélanie Laurent, Lior Raz, Nick Kroll and Haley Lu Richardson, ‘Operation Finale’ takes on an incredibly imporatant m...2018-09-111h 08We Paid To See ThisEp 117: The Little Stranger, Searching & Your NameThis week, we travel down an absurd vortex of lethargy while we review two new thrillers, the Lenny Abrahamson film, ‘The Little Stranger’ (Domhnall Gleeson, Ruth Wilson, Charlotte Rampling) and the laptop-centric ‘Searching’ (John Cho, Debra Messing, Michelle La). We pit Oscar Isaac and Domhnall Gleeson against each other in a match of beauty, refuse to fall in love, and frequent a seedy theater. We give a bonus review of the body-switching 2016 anime, ‘Your Name’. Hey. Who loves ya? We do. 2018-09-0458 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 116: Crazy Rich Asians, The Wife & Happytime MurdersPuppet sex, mood lighting, and one of us might be held hostage. Currently. Please send help. This week, we review three fa-hilms! Including the raunchy puppet noir ‘The Happytime Murders’ (Melissa McCarthy, Elizabeth Banks, Maya Rudolph, Joel McHale), Bjorn Runge’s, ‘The Wife’ (Glenn Close, Jonathan Pryce, Christian Slater) and Jon M. Chu’s ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ (Constance Wu, Michelle Yeoh, Henry Golding, Awkwafina, Ken Jeong). We talk two recently classic hunk filled dance scenes, debate water, and deliver the ASMR tingles that no one asked for.2018-08-281h 06We Paid To See ThisEp 115: BlacKkKlansman, Juliet, Naked & More!We go long and strong this week, with a show filled with tangents, manifestation, and a whole lot of Pepsi-takin’. Movie reviews include Spike Lee’s ‘BlacKkKlansman’ (John David Washington, Adam Driver, Laura Harrier, Topher Grace), and the latest Nick Hornby adaptation, ‘Juliet, Naked’ (Rose Byrne, Chris O’Dowd, Ethan Hawke). We pitch a new subscription based, virtual experience, enlist Carly Rae Jepsen’s help in saving the world, and read some of your lovely emails. Gattaca! Gattaca! Gattaca!2018-08-211h 09We Paid To See ThisEp 110: Eighth Grade & Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On FootAnthony has strong feelings about socks, Madonna cat-calls three identical strangers and we review two films; one a contender for best of the year so far! First up, there’s the new Gus Van Sant ‘Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far On Foot’ (Joaquin Phoenix, Jonah Hill, Rooney Mara, Jack Black) then we take a deep dive into the heart of teenage angst with the surprisingly strong debut by writer director Bo Burnham, ‘Eighth Grade’ (Elsie Fisher, Josh Hamilton, Emily Robinson, Jake Ryan). Darren gets uninvited to a water park, Anthony refuses to tuck in his bed sheets and we r...2018-07-1757 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 105: Hereditary, Upgrade, American Animals & moreDarren’s back from New York, and Anthony is ill; neither event is related. We review Leigh Whannell’s gruesome action flick, ‘Upgrade’ (Logan Marshall-Green, Betty Gabriel, Harrison Gilbertson), Ari Aster’s directorial debut ‘Hereditary’ (Toni Collette, Milly Shapiro, Alex Wolff, Gabriel Byrne) and Bart Layton’s ‘American Animals’ (Evan Peters, Blake Jenner, Barry Keoghan). But we don’t stop there, so get comfortable! Darren speaks on the Andre Leon Talley documentary ‘The Gospel According to Andre’, Anthony gives a very timely rundown of James Cameron’s least successful record breaking film, ‘Titanic’, and Ann Dowd is in everything. A ghoulish friend makes his retu2018-06-121h 03We Paid To See ThisEp 100: Tully, Grace Jones & 'RBG' Ruth Bader GinsburgWe talk the Met Gala, brainstorm religious fashion ideas for Madonna, and expel a fair amount of Catholic Guilt. Plus, Anthony gets sat on, and Darren flips off an entire bar. Movies reviewed include the documentaries ‘RBG’ (Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Gloria Steinem, Antonin Scalia) and ‘Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami’, as well as the new Jason Reitman/Diablo Cody team-up, ‘Tully’ (Charlize Theron, Mackenzie Davis, Ron Livingston). We have an extensive conversation on Showtime’s ‘Gigolos’, and find out where TV’s Richard Grieco has been hiding. One of us is visited by a prodding spirit.2018-05-081h 27We Paid To See ThisEp 98: I Feel Pretty, Godard Mon Amour & You Were Never Really HereDarren flirts with the dogs, Anthony shuns a desperate stranger, and we flex the parts of us you can’t see; plus one powerful eyebrow. Reviews include Lynne Ramsay’s ‘You Were Never Really Here’ (Joaquin Phoenix, Ekaterina Samsonov, Alessandro Nivola), the Amy Schumer comedy, ‘I Feel Pretty’ (Rory Scovel, Busy Philipps, Michelle Williams), and Michel Hazanavicius’ kinda-biopic, ‘Godard Mon Amour’ (Louis Garrel, Stacy Martin, Berenice Bejo). Names are butchered, stereotypical accents are utilized, and we push for the equality of nudity in film. Don’t tell us we don’t give you what you want, because we talk about Kevin, the seaso...2018-04-241h 09We Paid To See ThisEp 96: A Quiet Place, Blockers & GeminiWe’re late, and sorry, and we hope you like dong, because we go all in this week. In addition to our reviews of ‘Blockers’ (John Cena, Leslie Mann, Ike Barinholtz), ‘Gemini’ (Zoe Kravitz, Lola Kirke, John Cho), and the John Krasinski directed thriller, ‘A Quiet Place’ (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe), we talk Darren’s facial blindness, Anthony’s West Hollywood experience, and receive a visit from an old, ghostly friend. San Diego gets some love, we shame members of the animal kingdom, and get our Halloween plans situated well in advance. 2018-04-111h 13We Paid To See ThisEp 95: Ready Player One & UnsaneAnthony's Dad and Cousin fight over the ass-end of a lamb cake, Darren films the entire show on his iPhone, Ernest Cline becomes a pornographic verb and we review a couple of movies. First up, the Steven Spielberg adaptation of the novel of the same name, 'Ready Player One' (Tye Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn, T.J. Miller, Mark Rylance), then we passive-aggressively shush at teenagers in a sad movie theatre to watch the new Steven Soderbergh directed psychological thriller 'Unsane' (Claire Foy, Joshua Leonard, Jay Pharaoh, Juno Temple, Amy Irving). This show is good, guys. It's almost as go...2018-04-031h 07We Paid To See ThisEp 94: Isle Of Dogs & Muppet Guys TalkingAnthony’s feverish, Darren misfires at the grocery store, and we play a few rousing rounds of everyone’s favorite teenage party game, F. Murray Abraham. Reviews include the Jim Henson friendly ‘Muppet Guys Talking’ (Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Dave Goelz), and Wes Anderson’s ‘Isle of Dogs’ (Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Bill Murray). One of us discovers that John Denver is dead, the other disgraces his memory. We talk about eyes, the lack of having eyes, having too many eyes, and what it means to have negative eyes. Darren takes out a contact lens.2018-03-2759 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 92: Thoroughbreds, The Death Of Stalin & Heaven Is A Traffic Jam On The 405BREAKING NEWS: The news sucks, so we open the show discussing how to disconnect from the negativity, while staying informed (i.e Darren's laptop is broken so he can't get sucked in to social media as much). Movie reviews include ‘Thoroughbreds’ (Olivia Cook, Anya Taylor-Joy, Anton Yelchin), Armando Iannucci’s ‘The Death of Stalin’ (Steve Buscemi, Jeffery Tambor, Jason Isaacs), and the Oscar Winner for Best Documentary Short Subject ‘Heaven is a Traffic Jam on the 405’. Anthony raves about Iannucci’s previous film, ‘In The Loop’, Darren gets traumatized by SNL, and we talk about Sarah Michelle Gellar’s career post-vampire. We...2018-03-131h 05We Paid To See ThisEp 90: Annihilation & Game NightThis week, we learn the key to a proper selfie hashtag, let Janelle Monae rocket us into pop music’s future, and literally enter the wrestling ring. We review Alex Garland’s sophomore film, ‘Annihilation’ (Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, Oscar Isaac), and John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein’s ‘Game Night’ (Rachel McAdams, Jason Bateman, Kyle Chandler). Anthony laments the Bronze medal loss of Great Britain’s Women’s Curling team, we analyze the career of the delightfully magnificent Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Darren is still wearing the hat.2018-02-2759 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 89: Black Panther & PartyDarren’s got a new hat, Anthony’s curling allegiances get tested, and somewhere Fergie is still singing the Star-Spangled Banner. Reviews include, Ryan Coogler’s Marvel superhit, ‘Black Panther’ (Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Daniel Kaluuya), and Sally Potter’s experimental joint, ‘Party’ (Patricia Clarkson, Timothy Spall, Kristin Scott Thomas, Cillian Murphy). Letitia Wright has our hearts, one of us abandons a movie, and we watch two people tongue-bang during happy hour.2018-02-2059 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 83: Molly's Game & Phantom ThreadWe’re back from break with two films by a couple of Hollywood’s biggest creators; Aaron Sorkin’s ‘Molly’s Game’ (Jessica Chastain, Kevin Costner, Michael Cera) and Paul Thomas Anderson’s ‘Phantom Thread (Daniel Day-Lewis, Vicky Krieps, Lesley Manville). We talk greatest PTA/Philip Seymour Hoffman breakdowns, the seemingly ruthless determination of winter olympians, and we both get involved in a traumatic movie going experience. Darren forces himself to focus on Anthony’s longwinded musings.2018-01-091h 06We Paid To See ThisEp 80: Star Wars: The Last JediCONTAINS SPOILERS! There’s been a disturbance in the force. A new Star Wars movie is always a seismic event but neither Darren or Anthony expected this one to stir up the ground shaking divide of intense reaction Rian Johnson’s ‘The Last Jedi’ has. Unless you’ve been hiding under a (Dagobah) rock, you’re aware this installment, the 8th in the saga series, has challenged audiences and quite literally divided opinion. We both LOVED really liked and really didn’t like parts of this movie, and that’s OK. In this episode, we discuss why. Starring Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher...2017-12-191h 04We Paid To See ThisEp 78: The Disaster Artist, Mudbound & Call Me By Your NameThis episode is jam-packed with almost as much movie talk as sexual innuendo. Anthony sees Dee Rees' new Netflix film, 'Mudbound' (Jason Clarke, Carey Mulligan, Mary J. Blidge, Jason Mitchell, Garrett Hedlund), and Darren sees another showing of 'Call Me By Your Name'. We also talk James Franco's 'The Disaster Artist' (Dave Franco, Alison Brie, Ari Graynor, Seth Rogen), and Darren sees 'Call Me By Your Name'. Plus Darren sees 'Call Me By Your Name' and 'Call Me By Your Name'. We love our stuffed animals, get ready for 'The Last Jedi', and drink a whole lot of caffeine...2017-12-051h 01We Paid To See ThisEp 77: Call Me By Your Name, Coco, Darkest HourWe're back from our respective Thanksgivings, and after we're done musing about family and food, we get down to business. Reviews include Pixar's 'Coco' (Gael Garcia Bernal, Benjamin Bratt, Anthony Gonzalez), 'Darkest Hour' (Gary Oldman, Ben Mendelsohn, Lily James), and Luca Guadagnino's adaptation of 'Call Me By Your Name' (Armie Hammer, Timothee Chalamet, Michael Stuhlbarg). 'Lady Bird' and 'In Bruges' are touched on, 'Frozen' gets shamed, and Darren's sultry tones read to you from a book. Snapple Facts return!2017-11-2854 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 75: Three Billboards, Murder on the Orient Express & My Friend DahmerDarren flies straight in from Mexico just in time for this week's round of reviews. Movies include Martin McDonagh's 'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri' (Frances McDormand, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell), Kenneth Branagh's 'Murder on the Orient Express' (Judy Dench, Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Willem Dafoe), and 'My Friend Dahmer' (Ross Lynch, Anne Heche, Vincent Kartheiser). We talk about the intimacy of borrowing cellphones, Darren fends off an aggressive wedding dancer, and Anthony has a series of complicated run-ins with a neighbor. We ponder Jeffery Dahmer's ideal menu.2017-11-141h 03We Paid To See ThisEp 74: Thor: Ragnarok & Lady BirdDarren leaves for college, Anthony takes an uncomfortable shower, and we dive straight into two movies; Taika Waititi's hilariously epic 'Thor: Ragnarok' (Chris Hemsworth, Cate Blanchett, Tom Hiddleston, Mark Ruffalo), and Greta Gerwig's second directorial feature, 'Lady Bird' (Saoirse Ronan, Laurie Metcalf, Lucas Hedges). Jeff Goldblum rockets through the Goldblum ceiling. Both of us get a little homesick. Plus, we finish our thoughts on the newest season of 'Stranger Things'.2017-11-0757 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 73: Jigsaw, Suburbicon, Stranger Things 2 & Brawl in Cell Block 99As darkness falls across the land on this fair All Hallows' Eve, we fall directly into your ear pits. Reviews include the #1 movie in the country, the newest 'Saw' installment, 'Jigsaw' (Tobin Bell, Matt Passmore, Hannah Emily Anderson), and George Clooney's latest directorial effort, 'Suburbicon' (Matt Damon, Julianne Moore, Oscar Isaac). We scare you with our horrifying tales of blood pudding, and water bottles. Darren whoops it up at a Halloween party at the Jackson's house on the weekend, and Anthony really doesn't ruin 'Stranger Things', probably. We also chat about the new re-release of 'Little Shop of Horrors...2017-10-3152 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 72: The Killing Of A Sacred DeerIt's a one movie kind of week!

We Bruce Springsteen-ify some adult contemporary hits, rave about Dolly Wells, gush over the studly Richard Dreyfuss and his Oscar winning role in Neil Simon's 'The Goodbye Girl' and talk about our own personal Pennywises. John Wayne Gacy wins. At the top of the show, 'Ingrid Goes West' gets a little more love and we take a look back at t...2017-09-121h 03We Paid To See ThisEp 65: Close Encounters, Good Time, The Trip To Spain & Twin Peaks FinaleHydrogen bombs fall, Los Angeles burns, and we talk about movies; including the Safdie brothers' indie crime thriller, 'Good Time' (Robert Pattinson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Barkhad Abdi), Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon's improv heavy 'Trip to Spain', and the 40th Anniversary release of 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' (Richard Dryefuss, Teri Garr, Francois Truffaut, Melinda Dillon).

Do you know...2017-08-221h 08We Paid To See ThisEp 62: Wind River & An Inconvenient SequelThis week, our plans for a shortened show go haywire. We review the new Taylor Sheriden film, 'Wind River' (Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Jon Bernthal, Gil Birmingham), and Al Gore's important, yet inconveniently titled documentary, 'An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power'. Darren prepares for his Palm Springs work-cation, Anthony has car trouble, and Katy Perry does how we do.

Kathryn Bigelow's 'Detroit' (John Boyega, John Krasinski, Anthony Mackie, Algee Smith) is also discussed. Darren also doles out some love to HBO's 'The Defiant Ones' and we cut all our hair off, live in the studio. Just kidding.

Both of us are in ongoing battles with our neighbors, and one of us might possibly be paranoid. Oh and by the way we're totally wrong about Luc Besson directing an Alien film. Whoops. Netflix’s ‘To The Bone’ (Lily Collins, Keanu Reeves) is also discussed.2017-07-251h 09We Paid To See ThisEp 57: A Ghost Story, Spiderman Homecoming & GLOWThis week, we review David Lowery's latest film, 'A Ghost Story' (Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck), and reclaimed, Marvel juggernaut, 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' (Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Robert Downey Jr., and Marisa Tomei).

Edgar Wright's 'Baby Driver' (Ansel Elgort, Kevin Spacey, Jon Hamm, Jamie Foxx) promises a damn good time, and gives Anthony a hint of anxiety. Darren champions 'The House' (Will Ferrell, Amy Poehler, Jason Mantzoukas). Netflix's Okja (Tilda Swinton, Paul Dano, Jake Gyllenhaal) directed by Bong Joon-ho, and repressed nun comedy, 'The Little Hours' (Alison Brie, Aubrey Plaza, Kate Micucci, Dave Franco) are also reviewed.

Darren checks out during a review of 'The Lovers', but swears it's not Anthony's fault. The show redeems itself with a review of 'Snatched' (Amy Schumer, Goldie Hawn). A vocal impressionist is born and Darren brings us all down with his reflections on a documentary called ‘Homeless: The Motel Kids Of Orange County'.

Anthony reviews the new Liev Schreiber movie 'Chuck', and Darren shares his thoughts on the HBO documentary, 'Heidi Fleiss: The Would-Be Madam of Crystal'. The men then equate The Real Housewives of New York to a very bad addiction to something that rhymes with sack, knack and smack! 2017-05-0854 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 47: The Fate Of The Furious, The Last MagnificentThe guys talk food and inspiration during their review of the documentary, Jeremiah Tower: The Last Magnificent.

Confessions are confessed. 2017-05-0359 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 46: Freefire, The Transfiguration & American PastoralThank god Darren and Anthony had interesting (aka challenging) weeks to talk about because this week's film releases were slim pickings. We manage to make it interesting though. There's the new indie vampire film 'Transfiguration' - the terribly average Ewan McGregor, Jennifer Connelly and a grown-up Dakota Fanning period piece 'American Pastoral' and the shoot-em-up 70's action comedy 'Freefire'. Come for the films, stay for the stories of arguments in the immigration line at LAX. 2017-04-2553 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 43: Ghost in the Shell, Five Came Back, Road RageDarren opens the show talking about bathroom business, Anthony breaks down his recent DNA discoveries, and the guys take a crack at 'Ghost in the Shell'.

Darren's not convinced. Anthony shares a zen personal victory over texting in the movies (not him, some other loser!) This somehow leads to a chat about 'Personal Shopper', the new Kristen Stewart ghost story movie. Both men get their pants charmed off by Disney's live action remake of 'Beauty and the Beast'. Darren sees 'The Eagles of Death Metal: Not Amis' documentary on HBO, then talks a ghost story of his own. Spooky! 2017-03-221h 04We Paid To See ThisEp 40: Kong: Skull Island, Raw & More!Darren and Anthony see the blockbusting smash hit 'Kong: Skull Island', starring Brie Larson, John Goodman, Samuel L.

Can you guess which one it might be? We saw the Charlie Day / Ice Cube comedy 'Fist Fight' with hilarious Jillian Bell and Christina Hendricks. Anthony saw the South Korean period thriller 'The Handmaiden'. Darren stumbled upon a 2015 British horror film 'Howl' and we saw the anthology horror film, directed by all women, called 'XX'. Plus we talk Star Wars The Last Jedi and we rip on some pop music we loathe. Yay! 2017-02-2257 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 33: Oscar Nominations 2017It's the day of the 2017 Oscar nominations and we've got a thing or two to say about it.

P.S sorry it's late ;)2016-10-261h 05We Paid To See ThisEp 19: Man Vs Snake, Godzilla Resurgence & Castle in the SkyAnthony's had too much caffeine, Darren is too controlling and there's a new Godzilla film. We talk about the Netflix documentary 'Man Vs Snake', the new Japanese pop trash 'Godzilla: Resurgence', the anime classic 'Castle in the Sky' plus lots of horror movie favorites. It's the episode where the Wings vs Beatles vs John Lennon argument gets aired in all its filthy glory. Who shall win this battle? You'll just have to listen. 2016-10-1957 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 17: Masterminds, Chicken People & Text dramaWe saw the Jarred Hess (Napoleon Dynamite) directed comedy 'Masterminds' starring Kristin Wiig, Zack Galifianakis, Jason Sedeikis, Owen Wilson and Kate Mckinnon - plus a documentary called 'Chicken People' (yes really). Perhaps the most entertaining part of the show is when Anthony and Darren read and re-enact the text conversation they had deciding on which movie to see, and where. It's.. dramatic. 2016-10-0446 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 16: The Magnificent Seven, Trump vs Hillary & Operation AvalancheWe paid to see 'The Magnificent Seven' starring Denzel Washington, Haley Bennet, Chris Pratt, Ethan Hawke, Vincent D'Onofrio, Byung-hun Lee, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and more!

(Well, it's perfectly ok)2016-09-2746 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 14: Kubo & the Two Strings, Sully & More!Darren got terrible service at a fancy restaurant, Anthony does a pitch perfect imitation of Tom Petty, we review stop motion animation film 'Kubo and the Two Strings' and the Clint Eastwood directed 'Sully' starring Tom Hanks.

Darren is the last person on earth to finally see the Coppola classic 'The Godfather' (spoiler: he liked it!) and Anthony takes himself very seriously by seeing two arty films. A new tech documentary by Werner Herzod and a Norwegian dark revenge comedy about a 'mild-mannered snowplow driver (Stellan Skarsgård) who seeks revenge for the murder of his son.

They soon discovered that they were role models in the gay community, though they didn't always feel like it." The film re-connects with these men 25 years later in the aftermath of an experience which changed their lives for better and for worse. It's a surprisingly emotional and inspiring movie that Madonna fans will love but even the uninitiated will connect to due to t...2016-07-1831 minWe Paid To See ThisEp 3: Tickled, The Shallows & Independence Day: ResurgenceWe went to see the documentary 'Tickled', The Blake Lively shark attack thriller 'The Shallows' and the mega-blockbuster sans Will Smith sequel to Independence Day - Independence Day: Resurgence.
