The boys are out in the wilderness working on their tans and sculpting their soft bodies so no new ep this week. Instead we have the super violent and steroid infused Arnold Schwarzenegger classic Commando!

Hold My Popcorn

Bonus: Commando (1985)

On this weeks mini ep the boys are talking about actors who got big…and I mean real big, big ole beef cakes boys…the boys are talking about actors who clearly took steroids to prepare for a movie role.   Topics include Chris Evans with his youth medium t shirts, Chris Hemsworth’s chicken legs, Mickey Rourke looking like a quintessential goon, and Chris Pratt selling out.    Off topic topics include Boston racism, lion hearts, nose candy and Florida energy!   If you want to be part of the show, or you just want to yell at a stranger, email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com.    You can also follow our minimal efforts at social media on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter!

Streaming Recommendations

To close out Space Month, the boys watched the film where Bugs Bunny is held at gunpoint and threatened to be enslaved, so he kidnaps a retired Michael Jordan and forces him into playing basketball vs a bunch of violent monsters in Space Jam!   This movie had some odd casting choices, so Max lists the 7 players in the 1995-1996 NBA that would have been better than Shawn Bradly and Muggsy Bogues, and two very odd choices: dull and monotone Larry Bird alongside Bill Murray and having the guy who voices Homer Simpson in a live action cartoon movie without actually doing any voice work.    Also, the boys discuss the fetishization of Lola Bunny and how this movie sparked a generation of furries, MJ’s modest suburban home being a total sham, and the irony of how this movie is centered around gambling.     If you want to be part of the show, or you just want to yell at a stranger, email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com.    You can also follow our minimal efforts at social media on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter! 

Space Jam (1996)

Space truckers from the East India Company are woken from their nap too early AND THEN THINGS JUST GET WORSE! For week 3 of space month, the boys watched the other 70’s space movie that completely revolutionized the sci fi genre in the sticky, sweaty, chest bursting, cult classic Alien!    The boys talk about Ash’s decision to try and kill Ripley with a magazine, Dallas’s marital problems, this Xenormorph being the Rudy of space, blow job trauma, and butt bursters...   If you want to be part of the show, or you just want to yell at a stranger email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com    You can also follow our minimal efforts at social media on Instagram,Facebook and Twitter        

Alien (1979) I Just Want To Go Home and Party

t’s week 2 of Space Month, and Timmy boy is back in the captain’s chair as the boys watched the Ron Howard classic: Apollo 13.   Strong opinions are made. Is Tom Hanks’s character a jerk? Is Bill Paxton character the most useless man to ever go into space? Did Kevin Bacon give the crew the clap?!    All that and actual movie discussions!   If you want to be part of the show, or want to scream at John, check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com 

Apollo 13 (1995) This is Why We Don’t Allow Texans in Space!

It’s May the 4th, so the boys watched one of the most influential films ever made: Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope!    Sit back and scream at your phone as the boys discuss Jawa’s being the crackheads of the galaxy, R2D2 being a sassy teenager, C-3PO being a baby back bitch, Leia coming in hot with some big dick energy, Obi Wan acting like a drunk Bob Dylan impersonator, the empire’s missed opportunity to turn the destruction of the Death Star into their Pearl Harbor, and those horrific added CGI scenes. Don’t worry; the gang has a lot to say about Han firing first as well as that awful super imposed Jabba scene.    To top it off, Tim can’t seem to remember a single character’s name in this movie.      If you want to be part of the show, or want to scream at John, check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com   

Star Wars (1977)

Has anyone ever looked cooler than an early 70’s Clint Eastwood? The boys watched the gritty San Francisco neo-noir thriller Dirty Harry; the Timster is in the driving seat, so buckle up! If you want to be part of the show, or want to scream at John check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com     

Dirty Harry (1971)

The boys are back, and they watched the action-adventure-comedy-Kung Fu-ghost- monster movie that could only be made in the 1980’s: Big Trouble in Little China!    We’ve got ancient Chinese soccer feuds, Kung Fu machine guns, several San Francisco streets being taken over by Mortal Kombat characters, horrific in-your-face exposition by Kim Cattrall, lethal wind turbine back scratcher weapons, weird man eating catfish monsters, and a confused and clumsy Kurt Russell doing an intentionally bad John Wayne impression whist bringing a knife to a gun fight on multiple occasions.    This movie is an analogy for a mushroom trip where you are peaking by the start of the 3rd act, so have some extra fluids ready because it’s about to get weird.      If you want to be part of the show, or want to scream at John check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com 

Big Trouble in Little China (1986): Failing Upwards

An adventure 100 episodes in the making: That’s right for their 100th movie episode the boys are going back to where it all started and rewatched the Spielberg classic Jurassic Park!   Where were the parents of that effeminate boy that Grant threatens to gut with a raptor claw?  How did they bring back the extinct plants? How did Sam Jackson keep that cig in his mouth? How drunk was Malcom when he lit that flair inside of the car and thought he could outrun a T Rex? Why didn’t we get a Jaws/Quint like death from Mauldoon? And where the hell did that Trex come from at the ending of the movie!?   Once the movie talk comes to an end, the gang dives into the 2 alternate endings that almost happened, as well as their dream recasting, and typical closing out stuff…just listen and you will find out.    This was a good one folks, so hold on to your butts.   If you want to be part of the show, or want to scream at John check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com 

Episode 100: Jurassic Park Redux (1993)

It is the last film before their special 100th movie episode, and the boys watched the family-friendly story of a divorced, unemployed actor who dresses up as an old woman in order to manipulate his ex-wife and kids into loving him in Mrs. Doubtfire!    Lot of movie stuff to talk about such as: unexpected hostility towards interior decorators, Tom Hanks being the pizza gate ringleader, unorganized petting zoos, low blows at case workers, the rare occurrence of a blockbuster movie without a single villain, and restaurant hijinks. Daniel has gotten in so deep that he doesn’t even know who he is anymore!    

Mrs. Doubtfire (1993): Hairy Kneecaps, Expedited Court Hearings, and Sally Field RBF

It’s that time of year again where the ladies are picking the movies for the month, and first up is the cult classic story of a rich white woman whose biggest problem is that too many handsome men love her unconditionally in the film based off Nicholas’s Spark’s romance novel:The Notebook!   This movie got the boys real nostalgic for their high school years as they share a few personal stories from their past. They also talk about the odd connections to the classic film The Great Escape, Noah’s multiple suicide attempts to get Allie’s attention, gross beards, Rachel McAdams’ phantom eye brows, the origins of old Southern money, and that super hot PG-13 sex scene.  WHHOOOHH NEELLLLYYY!

The Notebook (2004): Romantic Cliches, Birds; Dishonorable Intentions, and Collateral Damage

This week Max, Bill, and John break down their selection of movies to watch on Valentines Day. You don’t need to like romantic movies to enjoy this episode, so break out the wine and chocolate, turn on your favorite streaming fireplace video, and get the lube ready because this episode is going to be HAWT AND SWEATY.     

Bonus: What To Watch On Valentines Day

Two brothers separated at birth. One is a prissy-karate-kicking-LA-aerobic-instructor who only wears pastels. The other is a karate-kicking-cigar-chewingasmuggler from the mean streets of Hong Kong…..and both have horrific Belgian French accents with 0 body hair.    Strap in because this week the boys are wrapping up their “It’s New to Me” mini series with the ADR filled, Johnny Walker-snot rocketing, roundhouse kick JCVD classic in Double Impact!   If you want to be part of the show, scream at John, or guess Timmy’s weight, check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com! 

Double Impact (1991) Silk Underwear, Cooter Floss, Smacking Women, and Grabbing Fistfuls of Ass!

Since the boys watched Demolition Man last week they thought it would be appropriate to watch the other dystopian sci fi action movie that unfortunately costars Rob Schneider in Judge Dredd!   This might be the most basic, tame, and lazy rated R action movie of all time where the most interesting thing is seeing Stallone with beautiful blue eyes.    The boys cover the entire sloppy plot as well as the logic of gunfire slowing down when you are shooting from high ground, the misfortune of women never having the opportunity to share a coed locker room with a bunch of old YMCA men, inbred Sybian cyborgs, golden cod pieces, and cops in 6 inch heels.      If you want to be part of the show, scream at John, or guess Timmy’s weight, check out our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages, or email us at  tdbackrow@gmail.com!
