Ep. 42 - I Was in the Pictures!

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/08/10

Shanley has spun 'I Was in the Pictures!', a category in which the spinner chooses an old timey movie star and explores their filmography. Overwhelmed with the guilt and shame of having chosen some of this season's greatest stinkers, Shanley tries to redeem herself by picking something worth watching. Will she succeed? Find out on this week's selection episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel.

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/08/01

After a long impromptu hiatus the crew is back in a huge way, this time to review Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021). In this week's review episode we ponder big questions like 'What's the best way to adapt a video game to film?', 'How does the pacing of a video game translate to screen?', and 'Do we remember much of this movie we saw three months ago?' All these deep conversations and more in this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Ep. 41 - Video Game Afaptation

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/28

Since the early 90's Hollywood has tried to adapt (or afapt?) popular video game properties to film. It usually doesn't go so well. Matt spun the exciting (if misspelled) Video Game Afaptation category and now has to choose from three decades worth of material that range from outrageously bad to only just sort of bad. Are you game for this episode?!

American Pie

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/27

FOR MATURE LISTENERS ONLY!This week the crew watches 1999's iconically raunchy coming of age film American Pie. This week's episode is full of the hosts exploring their own history with this film as well as their own sexual experiences. Much like American Pie itself, this episode is a solid balance between sensuality and sentiment. Listen for yourself if you dare!

Ep. 40 - Wanna Tap It II

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/21

Join us on a journey through film history and Jimi's pubescent awakening. After spinning 'Wanna Tap It', Jimi looks back through the 90's and the early 00's to see his crushes, loves, and lusts of yesteryear. Will you agree with his type? Will this be awkward and off-putting? Find out on this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/18

You think you know the USA's 16 president? Think again! This 2011 film delves beyond the legend of Abraham Lincoln to reveal the man behind the legend and that man is a vampire hunter. Seeking revenge on his mother's killer, Abraham finds more than he bargained for and is thrust into the dark underworld of vampires. Is the film any good? Tune in to find out what we think!

Ep. 39 - Movie Jar III

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/14

Four-time 'Movie Jar' spinner, Shanley has been forced to break her method of nominations. Instead of her customary five nominees, this week she only has three from which to choose--Batman Forever, Tower Heist, and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Matt and Jimi feel absolutely certain that they know what she'll choose. Do you?!

The Mummy (1999)

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/13

When Matt chooses 1999's The Mummy for Strictly Shanley, the Wheelhouse is full of a mixture of elation and irritation. Jimi, who hates The Mummy perhaps because he doesn't have a soul, starts off this episode at a high 11 and continuously becomes more enraged. Matt and Shanley, however, are filled with nostalgic glee. Will this late 90's adventure comedy be the chasm that tears the podcast apart?! Find out on this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Ep. 38 - Strictly Shanley

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/06

Matt spun this week and got Strictly Shanley, the category in which Shanley has free and total reign over the nominees. To make matters worse, this time, Matt doesn't even know the nominees prior to recording. Shanley's latest selections have been some of the crew's least enjoyed movies lately, so will this continue Shanley's unholy tyranny? Find out by listening in to this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

The Terminator

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/05

You know the movie, you know the influence it's had on film and pop culture, maybe you've even heard a podcast or two talking about it, but never before this episode have you heard three people really break down the deep issues that matter in James Cameron's 1984 masterpiece The Terminator. In our post watch discussion, we'll speculate on the origins of the stains on Reese's sweats, and criticize the packaging of Ginger's bread. The crew really gives this movie the fine-toothed examination for which

Ep. 37 - Pick-a-Parent Recommendation

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/04/01

Jimi spun 'Pick-a-Parent Recommendation' and has the choice between any of our parents' vastly diverse movie tastes. The parent he ends up choosing (no spoilers here) ends up drafting a slew of nominees that boast the highest Tomatometer scores we've ever had on this show. This could be the chance for the crew to watch a really good movie? Find out on this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Vampire Academy

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/28

Imagine a film that combines elements from Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Twilight, Divergent, and maybe a little bit of Lizzy McGuire. Would all of that be too much for one cohesive story? Yes. Certainly yes. It's with no pun intended when said that this movie sucks! It's 2014's Vampire Academy starring Season of the Witch's own Claire Foy and the Weekly Watch Wheel crew are enrolled for one hell of an experience!

Ep. 36 - The One Where We Actually Roll the Dice

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/23

On this week's episode, Shanley has spun an elaborate category, 'The One Where We Actually Roll the Dice'. This category requires that the spinner roll a die and the number that is rolled determines the number of degrees of separation from the last movie we watched. Shanley rolled a one. This means that she has to select a movie that has a person in its cast or crew that worked on Season of the Witch (2011). With greats like Nicolas Cage, Ron Pearlman, Christopher Lee, and others, we are sure to

Season of the Witch (2011)

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/21

Where does Nicolas Cage's Filmography and Period Pieces intersect? At 2011's oddity Season of the Witch. This film's story arc is absolutely baffling. Over the course of this narrative the Weekly Watch Wheel crew foresaw a half-dozen better conclusions but were unable to predict where this movie lands. On this week's episode, Matt and Jimi struggle to maintain focus on such a strange movie, while Shanley struggles to maintain consciousness!

Ep. 35 - Venn Diagram (Cranberry Juice X Nicolas Cage...

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/16

Last week, guest host Ariel spun Venn Diagram which requires that the nominees meet the qualifications of both of two other categories. She then proceeded to spin 'Cranberry Juice (Period Piece)' and 'Nicolas Cage Filmography'. Can Matt find enough nominees that are both Nic Cage movies as well as Period Pieces? Listen to this week's selection episode to find out!

Small Soldiers

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/13

The crew had the pleasure of welcoming a guest host onto this week's episode--friend of the podcast, Ariel! This week's episode digs into the 1998 action flick, Small Soldiers starring Tommy Lee Jones, Kirsten Dunst, and that kid from The Patriot! This film has a lot to discuss, but will the crew and their guest be able to stay on topic? Not likely, but find out for sure by listening to this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Ep. 34 - Roll of the Dice

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/03/02

On this week's episode, the Crew looks to a childhood friend for movie night nominees. But when said friend is unavailable for a phone call, Jimi, Matt, and Shanley must blindly sift through his nominees. Full of gumbo and hurricane cocktails, the hosts bring a messy vibe of lethargy as well as distraction. This episode was a lot of fun, and you won't believe what movie was chosen!

The Rock (1996)

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/02/28

Imagine, if you will, you're living in 1996, 2pac has died but at least Michael Bay is making a grounded action movie about domestic terrorists taking over the island of Alcatraz (for some reason). If that appeals to you, you won't believe what we have in store for you this week! This classic 90's action movie has a great cast including Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, and a bunch of people you've seen in other movies! The Weekly Watch Wheel crew had some fun with this movie and you'll hear all about it

Ep. 33 - Movie Jar III

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/02/23

She's done it again, folks! Shanley has somehow wo-manifested pulling Movie Jar for the third time! The crew had a fun time recording this short and sweet selection episode. Aside from the two specific movies pulled from the jar, Shanley also tours the filmography of iconic film auteur, one Michael Bay. What will she choose? We all know that Shanley has an insatiable thirst for power, but how will she use it? For good? For Evil? Find out on this week's episode of The Weekly Watch Wheel!

Varsity Blues

THE WEEKLY WATCH WHEEL ·

2022/02/21

Travel with the crew to the year 1999 where jeans were baggy and plastic was tinted and translucent. Matt chose MTV Studios' Varsity Blues, a film about sex, drugs, and footy footy football. Starring James Van Der Beek, Paul Walker, and John Voight, this film mixes the mischief of teens with deep dramatic elements. Also, Matt apparently 'wanted to tap it', whatever that means! Listen in to this week's episode and join the fun!
