 Theater VIII: Teen Wolf, Too | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7434

This week we’re taking a trip to college so we can soak in some culture, maybe take in a boxing match and then watch a man turn into a wolf right before our eyes. We watched Jason Bateman try his best in a sequel that lost the original movie’s star, Teen Wolf, Too. This wacky sequel ups the ante from the first movie and takes our hero Todd Howard to college on a boxing scholarship. Todd is the werewolf cousin of Scott Howard, Michael J. Fox in the first movie, and he has to use his wolf abilities to keep winning fights and return Hamilton College to its past glory. The problem is that Todd gets a little too full of himself, so he must apologize for his actions learn who he really is. What are the rules for turning into a werewolf in this movie? Why is college boxing such an important part of the school’s success? What percentage of the movie’s runtime do the montages take up? When did the students have time to learn the choreography for that dance party? How far does Uncle Harold live from the college? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

 Theater VIII: Disturbia | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 6532

This week, we’ve gotten ourselves into a little bit of trouble and we’re going to spending the next 90 days on house arrest. To prepare ourselves for this little staycation we watched the 2007 thriller, Disturbia, starring Shia LaBeouf. The movie is a modern adaptation of Rear Window that follows our hero, Kale, as he peeps on his whole neighborhood and creates an ever evolving plot about his neighbor being a killer. Kale is joined by his good buddy Ronnie and his new neighbor and love interest Ashley in his investigation of the creepy Mr. Turner. It is a pretty good movie that exceeded our expectations and is worth a watch. Why wasn’t the Spanish teacher held accountable for his role in the confrontation with Kale? Why does everyone in the movie just accept that Kale is spying on his neighbors and logging what he sees? Why would a person stare at the wind to get creative? Is Ronnie a good friend or a bad friend? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

 Theater VIII: Indiana Jones And The Temple Doom | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 8940

This week we’re celebrating our 100th episode with an adventure to India. Lucky for us, our good buddy Indiana Jones is going to be our guide to The Temple of Doom! This is the second movie from the franchise that inspired a whole generation of archeologists. Indy teams up with his sidekick, Short Round, and a beautiful lounge singer named Willie Scott to find and return a magical stone to a small village in India. Along the way, they must stomach a bunch of weird food, survive deadly boobytraps, keep from lierally getting their hearts ripped out and hang on to avoid becoming crocodile food. This is a great movie and part of one of the greatest movie franchises of all time. Obviously we recommend it with the highest of praises. Why does everyone they meet speak fluent english? Why did Indy really let Willie “tag along”? What is the temperature in those catacombs? Who designed Mola Ram’s escape hatch? What were the British troops doing while Indy and the gang were in The Temple of Doom? Thank you for listening to our little show for the first 100 episodes and hopefully we’ll still be talking about movies until episode 1,000.

 Theater VIII: The Naked Gun 2 1/2 - The Smell Of Fear | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 6489

This week’s episode takes us to the nation’s capital for a quick trip to get a prestigious award and save the day in the silliest way possible. We watched The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear, and we couldn’t have had a better time if we tried. This movie doesn’t try to be anything other than funny and it throws as many jokes as possible on the scene to make sure the laughs keep coming. There is a plot, but that’s not really what we are here for. Go watch this movie and have yourself a few yuks on us. Is there a better comedic straight man than Leslie Nielsen? Is it possible that Priscilla Presley is a lizard-person wearing a human mask? Too bad O.J. couldn’t stop himself from killing a few people or else he would still be making wacky movies like this.

Freddy is back and he is looking to reconnect with his long lost daughter, Katherine/Maggie.

 Theater VIII: Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 4769

This week, we’re taking a trip to the “African country” of Nibia to find a sacred white bat and save the day in Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. This sequel finds Ace recovering from the loss of a racoon friend while finding inner peace in a buddhist temple. He is hired by the British consulate to find the Wachati Tribe’s stolen bat and prevent an all out war. Ace uses his unique detective style to sniff out the clues and rescue the batnapped animal. What must it be like to act alongside Jim Carrey? Is this supposed to be a kid’s movie? Is this movie racist or is it just ignorant to other people’s lives and feelings? What is the record for most stairs a slinky walks down in a single attempt? Wouldn’t you love to hear that family’s story about their vacation to Quinnland Safari? Why was the next sequel about a kid instead of more installments with Jim Carrey? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.

 Theater VIII: I Am Legend | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 5614

This week we’re taking a trip to New York City to spend some time out in nature, maybe do some hunting and then spend our nights hiding from the virus infected zombies that are roaming the world. Will Smith is letting us know that, “we are not alone”, in 2007’s I Am Legend. The story is your typical virus wipes out most humanity and turns the survivors into inhuman monsters type of tale. The twist is that only one guy is left in New York City, but he is also the one man that can cure the disease that has destroyed civilization. We spend lots of time with the main character and his dog until eventually some other people show up in the third act. The movie is pretty good and Will Smith has some great scenes, but the bad CGI takes it down a few ratings notches. How did all of New York City get overrun by animals in only 3 years? How quickly did Robert start setting up his mannequin friends throughout the city? Where did the SR 71 Blackbird come from and how did it land on an aircraft carrier? Which do you think had a better ending, the theatrical release or the director’s cut? Will Burnface get his own spin-off? Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.
