It’s finally here! Listen to Doug, Dirty A, and friend of the show Matt King bitch about how George Lucas ruined Star Wars. They discuss the things that didn’t work with the first Prequel film, what might have worked better, and generally lament almost every decision Lucas made. Also, check out the improved audio quality of our brand-spanking new microphone! Take a listen! Continue reading
Everest, the latest film from Director Baltasar Kormákur, tells the story of the 1996 Mt. Everest Disaster, but does the drama equal the stunning visuals? Continue reading
Director Scott Cooper’s Black Mass tells the unbelievably true story of Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger. It features great performances from its cast, but is the film, as a whole, sound? Continue reading
Let’s get this out of the way right from the start: there are a LOT of great movies coming out this Fall Movie Season, but there’s really only one that I absolutely HAVE to see…seven times. As usual, I have compiled a small list of the titles I’m most looking forward to the last quarter of the year. If you want a more expansive preview, I suggest you check out Entertainment Weekly’s—they do a good job. Also remember, these titles are listed in order of release as they stand now. All dates are subject to change. So, without further ado, let’s go to the movies! Continue reading
The Hodgepodge Podcast is two years old! And with that dubious anniversary comes our Third Annual Best and Worst Films of the Summer lists! This year, Doug and Dirty A changed things up a little bit. Instead of their three best and three worst each, they have provided their FIVE best films and one worst. This was due to the fact that they largely avoided many of the worst-reviewed films of the summer and they had to limit their lists to what they actually saw. Take a listen and for those of you who have been with us over these last two years, thanks for listening!

After being away for a bit, Doug and DIrty A are back with reviews of a slew of movies including: Straight Outta Compton, The Gift, Z for Zachariah, American Ultra, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. They also discuss Doug’s soon-to-be crippling Funko POP addiction. Continue reading
Adapted from the novel of the same name, Z for Zachariah wraps up the summer movie season not with a bang, but with a very slow burn in one of the most tension-filled films of the year. Continue reading
Imagine Matt Damon’s Jason Bourne character, but as a stoner and you’ve pretty much got the premise of Director Nima Mourizadeh’s American Ultra. However, the film falters when it can’t decide if it wants to be a funny Bourne Identity or a straight up spoof like Spy. Continue reading
