Two stoner buddies, Joe and Hubbs, cruise suburban Los Angeles in search of beer, chicks, and a good time.

2025-09-181h 04RemaindersEpisode 78: 25th HourOn this episode of Remainders we watched Spike Lee’s 25th Hour, the Edward Norton drama about a drug dealer’s final night of freedom before heading to prison. Shot in New York right after 9/11, the movie feels right in the moment, with grief, uncertainty, and the sense that there’s no tomorrow. We talk about the ideas like mortality, facing consequences, and what accountability really looks like when time’s running out. We also get into about the outstanding cast: Barry Pepper, Philip Seymour Hoffman doing awkward brilliance, Rosario Dawson, and Brian Cox stealing scenes as Norton’s dad. Plus...
2025-09-041h 17RemaindersEpisode 77: Joe Versus the VolcanoOn this episode of Remainders, we watch the 90s cult classic Joe Versus the Volcano.

Crude, chaotic, and classic MacGruber.Other topics include the careers of Will Forte, Val Kilmer and Powers Boothe, Christopher Nolan’s love for MacGruber, Jon Hamm and comedy, the 90s Batman movies and the reappraisal of the campy spirit of th...
2025-07-241h 31RemaindersEpisode 75: BullyOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 2001 movie Bully. Based on a true story about a Florida murder, Bully is directed by Larry Clark of Kids fame. Capturing that same sense of aimless and amoral young people, Bully is a brutal and terrifying account of a group of kids planning to murder the monstrous Bobby, played by Nick Stahl. Bobby is the source of abuse and anguish for Marty, played by Brad Renfro, and their friendship spurs their friends to react. Mean, dirty, and slightly horrifying, Bully is nonetheless a time capsule of pre-9/11 fear of disaffected youth.
2025-07-101h 01RemaindersEpisode 74: A History of ViolenceOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 2005 film A History of Violence. David Cronenberg adapts the graphic novel by John Wagner about a small town family man who becomes a local hero after killing two men during an armed robbery. This gets the attention of a mob boss who believes Tom is a man with a violent past. Beast mode performances by Viggo Mortenson, Ed Harris, and William Hurt elevate A History of Violence into epic territory.Other topics include Viggo’s career post-Lord of the Rings, Cronenberg’s filmography, best Ed Harris and William Hurt perf...
2025-06-261h 28RemaindersEpisode 73: The BeachOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 2000 film The Beach. Leo’s first major role to come after the star making success of Titanic, time has been kind to this movie about disaffection and discovery in a pre-9/11 world with emerging technology. Directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland, the film’s roster has also led to a decades later reappraisal. If anything, The Beach is an incredible time capsule of late 90s/early 2000s culture and zeitgeist.Other topics include Danny Boyle’s filmography, movie soundtracks and discovering new music in the 90s, 2000s musi...
2025-06-121h 49RemaindersEpisode 72: Master and Commander: The Far Side of the WorldOn this episode of Remainders, we watch the 2003 war epic Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. Based on the series of novels, Master and Commander is a chase movie that goes much deeper. Russell Crowe plays Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey, and Paul Bettany plays Dr. Stephen Maturin. The Captain represents leadership and duty, and the Dr. represents academia and revolution. As they chase the elusive French war ship The Acheron, the two men both test and help each other during the Napoleonic Wars. Old-school action filmmaking in a modern war epic – she’s in her prime.
2025-05-291h 29RemaindersEpisode 71: InsomniaOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 2002 movie Insomnia. The only movie in Christoher Nolan’s filmography in which he doesn’t have a writing credit, Insomnia has always felt like an outlier in the director’s career. It’s most notable aspect was Robin Williams and his villainous role as Finch, a first for Williams. Playing opposite the most strung out possible version of Al Pacino, we see if this thriller holds up.Other topics include Nolan’s ranking, follow-up on our Mad Max Fury Road episode, fake reviews for Insomnia, Black Mirror, Andor and Star Wars...
2025-05-151h 13RemaindersEpisode 70: Mad Max Fury RoadOn this episode we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Mad Max: Fury Road - Black and Chrome Edition. Often considered the greatest action film of all time, Fury Road reintroduced the world to Max, this time played by Tom Hardy, as he teams up with Furiosa to take on the dystopian warlord Immortan Joe. George Miller’s stated intention was to make a movie that was one long chase, and as elemental and close to a silent film as possible.

2025-05-011h 52RemaindersEpisode 69: Starship TroopersOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 1997 political sci-fi movie Starship Troopers. Dismissed upon release as a generic action movie, time has been kind to this movie about fascism and soldier recruitment in a pro-war society. A militarized society in the future waging war against a sub-human alien species, Starship has gained cultural appreciation as a meta-film about wartime propaganda. A first-time viewing for one, we’ll see if this is a dumb, fun movie or an indictment of fascism. Or both.Other topics include a David Lynch retrospective, the passing of Nikky Katt, new shows we...

A year after tragedy strikes, a group of friends discover something far worse in the deep caverns of the Appalachian Mountains. This spelunking splatter fest is a contender for many titles, including best horror movie of the 2000s, most objectionable thing to watch for anybody with even the slightest claustrophobia, and having maybe one of the worst best friends in all of horror movie history. Listen up as we also thoroughly debate the appropriate moniker of Vampire Bats vs. Crawlers in this modern horror classic.Other topics include reflecting on...
2025-04-031h 44RemaindersEpisode 67: HEATOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 1995 crime classic Heat. Directed by Michael Mann, Heat features Al Pacino and Robert De Niro realizing they have a lot more in common than their respective careers would suggest. We dive deep into this 90s classic and the duality of character that has made it a favorite. Other topics include the seemingly endless stream of character actors in Heat, why the movie still holds up, Christopher Nolan’s influence, SXSW, physical media endurance and slipcovers, Francis Ford Coppola accepting a Razzie nomination like a man, and James Cameron’s decision to live...

2024-11-211h 32RemaindersEpisode 63: UnforgivenOn this first part of our Clint Eastwood double feature, we're diving into Unforgiven, Eastwood’s 1992 Oscar-winning western that challenges the heroic myths of the genre. The film follows retired gunslinger William Munny who takes one last job for revenge and money—only to confront the personal and moral costs of violence. Unforgiven redefined the western genre in the early 90s and it's never been the same since. We check out how Unforgiven holds up over time, look at revisionist westerns, and ask just why is Eastwood such a badass.Other topics include other favorite Clint Eastwood movi...

Picking up 22 years after Hitchcock’s classic, it’s a true continuation of the character of Norman Bates.

2024-07-241h 16RemaindersEpisode 60: The InformerOn this episode of Remainders we watch the 1935 John Ford movie The Informer. The story of Gypo Nolan, a disgraced IRA man of war in 1920s British occupied Ireland and his willingness to sell out his comrade best friend for a small reward. Victor McLaglen gives an all-time great sweaty performance as Gypo and his descent into guilt, remorse and whiskey until atonement is the only option. An underappreciated classic from John Ford.Other topics include lessons in Irish independence, Ti West’s X Trilogy, visiting the Vista and the Music Box Theatre, more 80s hair metal, Ri...
2024-07-101h 03RemaindersEpisode 59: Humanoids from the DeepOn this tribute episode to the late, great Roger Corman, we watch the 1980 B-movie classic Humanoids From the Deep. The story of a small California fishing town terrorized by human-like sea creatures killing men and assaulting women, Humanoids is the quintessential drive-in film with good reason. Fish monsters, small town brawling, dead animals, lots of naked women, and plenty of creature-feature gore. It has it all. One of the first movies Corman produced after beginning his independent film production empire, Humanoids is just one of many reasons why Roger Corman is an absolute titan in film history....

A cult classic by Brian De Palma, Phantom has gained notoriety in the decades since its release thanks in part to De Palma’s legendary filmography, but also because of a small but rabid fan base that hails to this insane mashup of horror and glam rock.Other topics include Killers of the Flower Moon, Chicago legends Siskel & Ebert and Tom Skilling, January movie marathons, Godzilla Minus One and the Oscars, new Criterion pickups and the lost art of movie posters.So...

2024-01-041h 16RemaindersEpisode 51: Trash HumpersThis week on Remainders, we watch the 2009 movie Trash Humpers. A piece of post-cinema and experimental insanity by Harmony Korine (Gummo, Spring Breakers), Trash Humpers is a practice in hedonistic voyeurism, found-footage VHS, elder depravity, and plenty of garbage. A movie that questions what even is a movie, it’s another great example of Korine’s exploration into erratic places in film.Other topics include praise for Andor and defending the Star Wars prequels, Lord of the Rings as Christmas movies, streaming woes, The Holdovers and Alexander Payne, visiting the Music Box Theatre, Plain White T’s and TL...
2023-11-291h 24RemaindersEpisode 50: RoboCopThis week on Remainders, we celebrate our 50th episode in style with the 1987 satirical classic, RoboCop. The story of Alex Murphy, a Detroit cop who is executed only to be remade by corporate America as the ultimate police enforcer. Paul Verhoeven’s action movie could be viewed as just a seminal piece of 80s action filmmaking, but that would still be selling it short. RoboCop builds upon ideas of capitalism, creeping fascism, and media propaganda in a way that very few movies can manage. I’d buy that for a dollar!Other topics include Darren’s work at the...

Partially forgotten and possibly overshadowed by No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood upon its release, Assassination is absolutely an essential modern western. Brad Pitt plays Jesse James who is put on a pedestal by Casey Affleck’s Robert Ford. As Ford idolizes and fawns over James and tries to become one of the gang, he learns the man and the myth do not align. A story about paranoia and disillusionment that is both poetic and dreamlike, elevated by...

A gripping 1953 film noir directed by Fritz Lang, The Big Heat follows determined detective Dave Bannion (Glenn Ford) as he exposes corruption within his own department after a fellow officer's death.

Craig Zahler (Bone Tomahawk, Brawl in Cell Block 99), Dragged stars Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughn as two cops caught committing police brutality who turn to robbing criminals out of desperation. Filled with his trademark violence and considerable runtime, Dragged is a movie that further cements Zahler as one of the best working directors today.Other topics include the passing of Paul Reubens, Rodriguez and William Friedkin, Jon Hamm and his jump from drama to comedy, the Meg 2 and how bad shark movies...

2023-07-281h 26RemaindersEpisode 44: A Simple PlanThis week on Remainders, we talk the 1999 crime thriller A Simple Plan. Directed by Sam Raimi, mostly without his signature chaotic style, Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton play brothers who discover a duffel bag of money and decide to keep it. Almost immediately, this apparent blessing turns into a curse as greed, violence, past trauma, and death all arise as a result. Paxton and Thornton reunite after One False Move and once again prove they are both timeless character actors.Other topics include the screenwriters and actors strike, Margot Robbie, the Boogie Nights soundtrack, new music...

Ned (Hurt) is a hapless lawyer who falls hard for the sultry but married Matty (Turner). Their affair turns dark though when they initiate a plot to kill her husband – with the potential to reap his fortune. A throwback to 40s crime noir, Body Heat feels especially relevant today as societ...

An all-time best performance by Ethan Hawke, First Reformed follows Hawke playing a small-town minister as he grapples with despair brought upon by the looming threat of climate change. Hawke’s crisis of faith leads him down a dark path as he bounces between hope and despair in a world that often leaves little to have faith in. Paul Schrader’s script and direction bring back many themes he explored in Taxi Driver into a modern world with new uncertainties about the future.Other topics 90s yuppie thri...

James Mangold’s urban western was Sylvester Stallone’s return to drama after a slew of over-the-top 90s action bombs. Giving one of the best performances of his career, it helps that the rest of the cast is a list of all-time greats, including De Niro, Keitel, and Liotta. A tale of justice and grit, this sleeper hit is almost a hidden gem these days and should not be missed.

A classic in Travolta's and De Palma's filmography, the story of a movie soundman uncovering a murder plot against a presidential candidate has grown in appreciation amongst cinephiles since its release over 40 years ago. De Palma's innovative camera movements and focus on doubles and murder mystery do not go unnoticed as Hitchcock devotees, in addition to all time performances from Travolta and John Lithgow as the lurking serial killer. We pay homage to one of the most important auteurs of the 70s. Other t...
