The DiveTrue Lies & Mr. & Mrs. SmithI think this is probably the last one? Never say never!
We talk about everyone's two favorite marital action comedies. Romel solves America's marriage crisis. We end on a brand spanking new segment!2021-03-041h 00The DiveCitizen Kane & MankCitizen Kane holds up as one of the greatest movies of all time and still feels fresh and groundbreaking today. Mank is a very enjoyable, very gorgeous movie about the making of Kane, however suffers from the same tropes as other How-It-Got-Made biopics (The Disaster Artist, Dolemite is My Name, etc). Enjoy!2021-01-101h 10The DivePolice Story & Rush HourHollywood? Ur on notice pal2021-01-011h 09The DiveBatman Begins and Halloween (2007)In this one we:

The DiveThe Hunt & Ready or Not (feat. Joe V)"All of y'all out there who aren't heroin addicts, hey, you guys made it" - Romel Tamez2020-09-131h 47
The DiveMandy & MidsommarMandy is the doomer meme and Midsommar is the chad/virgin meme. I get super melodramatic talking about Mandy. I don't think Christian deserves his fate at the end of Midsommar unless you're my future girlfriend reading this in which case Christian was a bad bad man who probably got off easy if you ask me!
Here's the link for the opening mural in Midsommar: https://i.redd.it/l0sa4b813up31.png2020-08-311h 04
The DiveFail Safe & Dr. StrangeloveTwo movies that vividly illustrate the issue with a nuclear program built on the premise of mutually assured destruction. We also discuss the future of the pod, and uh, oh yeah, apparently Chris Kyle had dirt on Hillary Clinton on his hard drive?!2020-08-111h 03The DiveLa La Land & Rock of Ages (feat. Taylor Klein)*AIRHORN SOUND* This week brings our first guest and resident musical/movie-musical expert, AND my very own sister Taylor Klein!!! We share our thoughts La La Land & Rock of Ages. Taylor explains why she thinks there haven't been any truly *great* modern movie musicals, and we all wax about who we'd like to see direct a movie musical.2020-07-191h 21The DiveStarship Troopers & American SniperOne of these is a cartoonish, militaristic fever dream...and the other is Starship Troopers 😎2020-06-251h 05The DiveTrain to Busan & Dawn of the Dead (1978)Today on the agenda we're talking:
Different British accents
British spy cucks

Romel goes OFF on Cuba and Venezuela.2020-04-231h 11The DiveInherent Vice & Once Upon a Time in HollywoodIt's the end of an era! PTA and Tarantino both burst on to the scene around the same time and went on to make bittersweet movies about the end (or should I say, THE DEATH) of the 60s! I said I was going to cut the part where Romel tells women to DM me and send "pictures of their hummus" but I don't know what that means so I guess I'll keep it in!2020-04-091h 17The DiveDonnie Darko & Source CodeIt's a time travelling Jake Gyllenhaal double feature! Romel tells a skeptical me about John Titor, one of the internet's earliest sensations! He also makes the case for a shared Gyllenhaal universe! Hold on to those tin foil hats, ♪it's the dive podcaaaaast. It's the dive podcaaaaast. *Intro guitar solo.*♪2020-04-091h 09The DiveThe Thing & The VoidIn this episode of the pod Will and Romel look at two installments in the cosmic horror genre and debate which one is better (it's The Thing c'mon folks).2020-04-081h 04The DiveRepo Man & Green RoomIt's the punk episode...or should I say anti-punk? We talk about how punks are cool, until we decide they're not. Repo Man is an irreverent cult masterpiece that lightheartedly reflects the bored suburbanite adolescence punk was born out of. Green Room is a movie that made me queasy when I first saw it in theaters that only becomes even more terrifying when Romel explains why exactly it's so "of its time." Tune in to find out why!2020-04-081h 03The DivePlatoon & From Paris With LoveAlright folks, let's kick this off. It's ya boys Will and Romel and uh, yeah. Pretty sure we're giving it to you raw. That's right, no script baby! On the first episode, we talk about Oliver Stone's classic war movie Platoon and Romel waxes about his love for John Travolta's From Paris With Love and its unbridled exuberance. It also manages to be more overtly jingoistic than Platoon, and that's an actual war movie! Tune in to find out why!2020-04-0753 min
