E

This week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, we watched Alex Jones' favorite Muppet movie, Muppets in Space. Filled with government conspiracy, Dr Teeth (but no singing), and Miss Piggy as a conspiracy TV show host role, this movie is a mess, but still Muppets-ish. Please continue to rate and review us!

E

As we unfurled our Muppet Month, American Treasure Caroll Spinney (the Voice of Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch) announced his retirement from Sesame Street.

S5 Ep 180Atlantis: The Lost Empire

E

When I realized that this month had one too many Thursdays, I thought what is a crap movie that I have seen which is vaguely Indiana Jones-ish. I remembered this, the last Disney film that I saw in theaters for about a decade. Turned out it wants to be Stargate more than Indiana Jones. Please continue to rate and review us!

We leave the prequel and end up with the final entry into the saga, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Well, the last one for 19 years.

S5 Ep 175Deep Rising

E

This week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, we watch a movie that is not sure what it is. Deep Rising is part Alien, part Poseidon Adventure, part heist film, part inside man movie, all mess and bad CGI! A treat(?), but with appropriate scares to wrap up this monster month.

E

This week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, we visit Bill Pullman after that whole President thing and hear some of the worst dialog put to celluloid. We watched Lake Placid, people really need to stop ripping off Steven Spielberg, ok? And no, your pitch of what if Betty White were the bad guy in a Jurassic Park meets Jaws crossover starring a giant alligator does not sweeten the pot. Well, I am lying, that sounds amazing; too bad this was not. Note: There is some mild static on this episode, I tried to fix it, but could not get it completely. Sorry!

S5 Ep 172Godzilla

E

Welcome to the monster movie month Matthew maintained! This year for October we crack out a few spooky movies and have a little fun with them; well, as much as can be had with some of this crap. We start with the baffling big budget monster film Godzilla (1998). Fresh off the crushing success of Independence Day, Roland Emmerich has made some upgrades! Replacing sexy and charismatic Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum with Matthew Broderick and Hank Azaria. Replacing sexy love interest Vivica A Fox with Maria Pittio. And replacing the heroic Bill Pullman with Michael Learner (playing Mayor Ebert, a reviewer who gave Independence Day a bad review). The only true upgrade was replacing Randy Quaid with Jeno Reno. So let's get into a Godzilla movie so bad that it saved ToHo productions who made a film where their Godzilla kills this one. Please continue to rate and review us!

S5 Ep 168Boondock Saints

E

Welcome to the next month in our season 5 line-up, Cool In College. Curated by Daniel, these movies were the posters on every wall sold in the quads from under a cheap canopy. These were the movies you thought were profound when you were in your late teens and early twenties, do they hold up or are they cheap messages and indie film money from the 90's. We will find out together! Our first pick is the box office poison that was Boondock Saints. According to Box Office Mojo, the widest release it had was five theaters and made $30,471 on a $6,000,000 investment. The cult status came later of this neo-libertarian crime? revenge? movie!

S5 Ep 167Little Rascals

E

Has there ever been a joke that people around you like, but you just don't find funny? Maybe it has been stripped down from a better joke, or told so many times that it is no longer funny. With that image in your head, we watch the Little Rascals, from the director of Wayne's World. You heard me. This is the last precocious kid movie of the month and boy is it as doozy with a surprise cameo you won't expect; I was gobsmacked.

S5 Ep 165My Science Project

E

As precoucious kid month rolls on, we watch a Matthew classic! While this was not a movie I had not seen before, it lurks on in the pantheon of weird 80s movies. It has all the classic elements, nerd girl who is actually gorgeous but hideous because she has glasses, jocks and nerds, washed out hippies, and Eisenhower ordering the destruction of alien technology.

S5 Ep 164Casper

E

Welcome to Season 5 of Myopia: Defend Your Childhood! We continue the precociousness with a blast from the cartoon past, which is the only reason I can imagine that Father Guido Sarducci, Dan Ackroyd, Clint Eastwood, Rodney Dangerfield, and Mel Gibson did cameos. Further, this helps cement Christina Ricci in the 1990s, why Brad Garrett is CGI animated in all of Pixar's movies, and is between starring in While You Were Sleeping and Independence Day for Bill Pullman. We watched the CGI-tastic Casper from 1995. First thanks for sharing the last episode, it did great and hopefully the season will continue so well! Second, please continue to rate and review us!

S5 Ep 163Matilda

E

Welcome to Season 5 of Myopia: Defend Your Childhood! We return strong and refreshed with constantly mentioned ‘stay-tuned’ episode, the Danny DeVito directed Roald Dahl classic, Matilda! What can you expect in the new season? So much! First, once a month, we will have a bonus episode! (We even released one last month, if you did not tune in). Second, new theme song! Third, rather than seemingly random movies, we will pick a theme and a group of regulars will select their movie choices. This month, I selected the category ‘precocious kid movies.’ You know the ones, Nickelodeon and Disney pumped them out in the 1990s. The adults are always wrong, the kids are always right. Maybe Emilio Estevez betrays the team by trying to pick up a woman twice his height or the parents all turn out to be frauds. Finally, we know we will not get to all the selections you want, so check out the Facebook Group where we will have a survey to tell us the movies you wished we covered this month. They may come back during an upcoming listener request month! Next, thanks to all of you who have been supporting me in the past year as I have done Cineprov! I believe I have performed six times and it is always nice to see fans. I will continue to perform and you should continue to see me! While I am not on the August show (Cineprov is riffing Troll 2 August 2nd (the day this is released), with Riffers Larry, Candace, and Christine), I will be there and so should you! I will be riffing the next movie War Games on September 7th, however (with Larry and Evan). Finally, I want to thank my production team Candice, Daniel, Matthew, and Thomas, all the panelists, and all my listeners. I promise this season will only improve on the last! This week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, I think we learned that child abuse gives you magic powers, just like Harry Potter. We saw Matilda, is this the only time Danny DeVito can say “I’m big, you’re little” to anyone? Matilda! How Will you stand when we put your past on trial?

Summer Reruns 2018 - Batman Returns

bonusE

So, I was reminded that half the world is upside-down, which is a polite way of saying wrong, of course. So, in honor of our hundreds of listeners in Australia and New Zealand and the four people in Argentina, two in Chile, ten in South Africa, and twenty-four listeners in Brazil, we would like to share Thomas' choice, a winter film; Batman Returns. And what's not to like? Thomas' first podcast ever (and now look at him!) Danny Devito as the Penguin, Christopher Walken as a prick, Michael Keaton as Batman (or Bruce Wayne when he is wearing glasses), and Michelle Pfeiffer as a cat lady, I mean Catwoman! Also, thanks to those who watched me at Cineprov riff Rocky IV! Tune in next month for Troll 2 on August 2nd! It's guaranteed to be something great! Also, do you follow us elsewhere? Facebook?

Summer Reruns 2018 - Mission Impossible

bonusE

In honor of the big summer blockbuster Mission: Impossible - Fallout, starring Tom Cruise, Henry Cavill, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Angela Bassett, and Alec Baldwin , we remind you of a time where Jean Reno and Emilio Estevez could open a movie with Tom Cruise, let alone a movie. We are watching Mission Impossible! This surprise remake of an old TV property with the twists and turns that on Brian de Palma could deliever, led to other remakes like The A-Team, The Avengers (with Uma Thurman), the Saint, and SWAT. Hey, at least some of these sequels are pretty good. Also, thanks to those who watched me at Cineprov riff Rocky IV! Tune in next month for Troll 2 on August 2nd!

Summer Reruns 2018 - The Last Star Fighter

bonusE

Hello there! I hope that summer is treating you with sunny days and frosty air conditioning! I am from Atlanta, as many here know, and it is too hot to think...or be funny, hence reruns! We return this we with a Sci-Fi blast from the past and you know what that means... this is Matthew's choice! The Last Starfighter, which at this point more people know from Robot Chicken than the original movie! As an aside, the premise of the movie is great, though I think the sequel would be along the lines of Polybius. Also, thanks to those who watched me at Cineprov riff Rocky IV!

Summer Reruns 2018 - Road House

bonusE

Hello friends and thanks for tuning in during this summer break! I hope you are staying refreshed and cool. This week we rerun a classic: Road House. Why is it a classic, you may ask. Well, I'll tell you! Daniel picked this one for many reasons. First, it was one of the most requested movies we had done to date. Second, it was a lot of fun to record, funny to listen to, and memorable overall. Third, panelist Zack wanders off for roughly twenty minutes in the middle. This movie gets to the meat of it all, answering questions like 'do pain hurt?' (answer: don't) 'Will you get to sleep when you die?' (answer: do) 'Does anyone in this world wear underwear, even when zipping jeans? (answer: don't). Oh what fun! Also, thanks to those who watched me at Cineprov riff Rocky IV! Tune in next month for Troll 2! Also do you follow us elsewhere? Facebook? Instagram? Twitter? Myopia?
