You know what that means; it's time to give thanks to our favorite British spy. The name's Bond. James Bond.This year we each highlighted a personal favorite that might not be well remembered. Frank went dove deep to nominate Thunderball while Tomorrow Never Dies left Matt black, white, and read all over. We also give our first impressions on No Time to Die, but kept it brief.

Sorry this is sounding harsher than I mean it - you gotta understand, we just watched this film, recording a full hour talking about it, then had to spend time editing that conversation, so we've been down here way too long.

Kevin Costner stars as the fabled Robin of Locksley, in this dark retelling a veteran of the Crusades returned home to find Alan Rickman's Sheriff of Nottingham poised to claim the throne of England. With one of the greatest movie themes and one of the worst British accents, the Gi5 boys sit through a severe mess, coming close-to-but-never-quite-reaching the...

Give It 5The Natural (1984)Things sure turned out different.In what way?Different.Our summer hours continue as we tackle one of its dog-day classics. For 40 years we've lived with the idea that it could be the best in the genre. Friend of the pod, baseball fan, (and member of the Matt CClub) Matt Cowan joins us to revisit this pastoral classic. Is it a 5-tool film? Did it need to spend more time in AAA Scranton? Will you ever get the theme song out of your head? Only one way to find out.

In a renaissance of comic book movies, this one did well, but didn't seem to percolate like the MCU. Sure, it got a sequel (which we talk about) and is getting a soft reboot (which we're cautiously optimistic about), but what endeared us to the concept in the first place? Maybe tune us in while you sit down with a martini. Gin, of course. Stirred for 10 seconds...

Even Matt hadn't, and that's saying something. Our hosts have a lot of questions, but thankfully returning guest Mike Simses (2010: The Year We Make Contact) has the answers. We spend this feature-length episode dissecting the anatomy of a movie that should have been a hit in theory, but serves as a fascinating cautionary tale in practice.You can find Mike @MikeSimses o...

Probably Seamus Heaney at some point.We're back after our brief excursion to Starfleet to talk about The 13th Warrior, an often forgotten film, so much so that most people don't even realize it's meant to be a retelling of the epic story of Beowulf.

Willems (previously on our episode on The Shadow), who brought us a movie that certainly no one is still talking about. A critical and financial failure, in many ways Shazam was the beginning of the end of Sinbad's Hollywood run. Our hosts dive deep into why that is, what went wrong and more importantly, what in this movie is worth revisiting (if anything). From the rap battle to the climactic showdown with...

In between nipple-suit Batman and laryngitis Batman, we got Mystery Men. In the same tradition as Austin Powers and Galaxy Quest, this comedian-driven vehicle poked fun at its genre while still appreciating its tropes.

A movie so incompetent, they managed to cast a new love interest that is somehow just as creepy as the violent husband that is hunting her. We're joined by friend-of-the-pod Amanda Kusek and also newcomer MB Welch (our self-appointed JRob expert) to chat about 1991's Sleeping With the Enemy. We chat...

Today we revisit Aaron Sorkin's The American President, the basis of what would become the West Wing and also a fantastic Rob Reiner film. Annette Bening plays Sydney Ellen Wade, who begins a romantic relationship with the president of the United States, Andrew Shepard, played by a Michael Douglas that is doing his best to keep his smarmy factor down to zero (which he totally does pull off somehow.

Give It 5The Blob (1988)Murderous jell-o wreaks havoc on a small American town (it's better than it sounds).Let us just say...this is a special one. We highly recommend watching the movie before listening to the episode (a Gi5 first). We almost don't even want to describe anything about it in order to not give anything away. You wouldn't think the remake of a 1950s b-movie about evil jelly would be anything worth revisiting but it is, having now become one of Frank's every-year Halloween staples.We're joined once again by Connor & Peter of the Fix-a-Flick...

All four of us picked a different "favorite Halloween movie" to talk about. Today we present you with Connor's: The Lost Boys.

Unfortunately, it's a little more complicated than that. Friend of the pod Rob Schulte (of the @PumpkinSpicePodcast) helps us open up Spooky Season with an oft-forgotten slasher from the early days of Miramax (hence the complication).Can the trio build a make-shift raft of Jason Alexander's performance, Tom Savini's effects, and paddle their way back to...

This time we bring you Down Periscope, a movie that could only be made in that peaceful sweet spot of history between 1991 and 2001, a lighthearted comedy from the same minds that brought you Police Academy and Major League (so basically a love-able bunch of losers who come together under a charismatic leader).

Descriptions of the beast (or beasts) vary, but we'll never truly know what it was...France’s genre-bending action flick might not be the most accurate portrayal of the legend, but it sure was fun to watch.

Give It 5Night Moves (1975)Gene Hackman in the 1970s sure was something. We're joined by first-time-on-the-pod guest Clay Von Carlowitz, who comes bearing gifts in the form of 1975's Night Moves - a film neither Frank or Matt had ever seen before (nor had Frank even heard of before) which always makes for a treat of an episode. It's a grizzly, tangled web of a mystery story where things are not what they seem (I know they always say that, but in this case the things that don't seem what they seem don't even seem what they seem to seem, you get me?)

You know the rest.Matt and Frank sit down with Michael Ludwig, recently returned from the UK to talk about the all-American classic, ID4 (yes, we even debate when "ID4" became a thing). It's the alien invasion movie that changed Hollywood forever, and became one of the biggest event films of all...

Not exactly Grapes of Wrath, but we're in quarantine and need that dopamine hit!

Give It 5Backdraft (1991)Not gonna lie, this one burned us.We're joined by first-time-guest of the pod Mike Lacy to talk about 1991's Backdraft, a William Baldwin pryo-vehicle that is so in love with Kurt Russell, they cast him in it twice. Join us as we talk about the two films - the cliche-ridden brotherly drama about a family of firefighting, and the thrilling detective story where Robert Deniro and Alec Baldwin's brother hunt down a vicious arsonist hellbent on 'backdrafting' his victims. Join us as we talk about fireman axe duels, Robert Deniro's scorched back (and self-healing gate wound...

Give It 5Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)It's a fact, sure as day follows night, sure as eggs is eggs, sure as every odd-numbered Star Trek movie is shit. The fifth entry in Gene Roddenberry's franchise is generally considered the worst, but excuse us? I’d just like to ask a question. What does God need with a starship? Also: is Star Trek V: The Final Frontier a great Trek film, or the greatest Trek film? I know, you're thinking we've cracked under the quarantine pressure. You're right, but that has no baring on our opinion of this movie.Matt & Fr...

Give It 5Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)Quick's the word and sharp's the action!We bring you a discussion on Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, one of the most brilliant historical films ever made (in our humble opinion). Russell Crowe plays the Kirkian Jack Aubrey, commander (and master) of the HMS Surprise up against the most powerful ship in the French navy, the Acheron, depicted with the artistic grace of making it one of cinema's most formidable antagonists.This is one of our favorite films of all time.

It even pre-dates Star Trek by 3 years (much to Matt’s chagrin). This 1996 made-for-TV-movie was supposed to be a backdoor pilot.
