Bruce Willis is one of our great movie stars. Given his recently announced retirement, Adam and Thomas felt it was finally time for Willis' long overdue Double Edged Double Bill treatment!

Steven Seagal gets sole writing credit and tracks down a serial killer in Kill Switch! It may be the most unpleasant movie James and Dylan have had to watch. But can a shocking twist ending reverse everything they thought they knew? Maybe there’s a game at the end. We don’t know! We recorded this a long time ago, and if you think we’re listening to these episodes to help write the descriptions you clearly haven’t heard our show before.

Time to find out the secret origins of two idiots recording a podcast together! This week, Adam and Thomas are avoiding the new Fantastic Beasts by talking about other prequel films! First, the origins of a Brian De Palma classic gangster film we never asked for are revealed in the prequel Carlito's Way: Rise to Power! Then, David Lynch brings us to a time before damn fine coffee with Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me! Together, our heroes answer the crucial questions.

Wow! After a long, dark slumber the Most Popular Show on the Talk Film Society Network in History has returned! James and Dylan find themselves struggling with the very fabric of the show when they’re forced to watch The Onion Movie. The boys have no choice but to take solace in a familiar face and Wex Poetic.

Eli Smith (@heymisterwallet) returns as a guest to talk the season one finale of The Mandalorian with host Callie (@calliesmith92)! The talk Jason Sudeikis punching Baby Yoda, the Darksaber, and Boba Fett ruling Tatooine with respect instead of fear.

Michael Mann is returning to the director's chair for the pilot episode of HBO Max's Tokyo Vice. So, it only seemed right to do a Double Edged Double Bill episode all about this legendary director with two films that leave our cohosts divided! First, The Last of the Mohicans shows a very different side of Michael Mann as Daniel Day Lewis fights in the French Indian War. Then, Chris Hemsworth clacks on a keyboard intensely in Michael Mann's hacker thriller that bombed so hard it put him in director jail Blackhat! Together, our duo answers all the crucial questions. What if Daniel Day Lewis was a traditional 90s action lead? Why do we have very few new movie stars? Which two films will they choose for next week's episode?

Back in February 2020, Marking the Marcs hosts Marcelo and Marcus started recording a new limited series on the Stone Cold Steve Austin-Vince McMahon rivalry of the late ‘90s and early 2000s.

From Wes Craven’s Scream Quadrilogy to the new re-quel by Radio Silence; yes, it’s a scream, baby!

Penélope Cruz is one of our great actresses. Capable of phenomenal work that transcends language. Shame that most English language productions fail to give her solid material to work with. So, given her recent Academy Award nomination for Parallel Mothers, Adam and Thomas felt like it was time for her to receive the Double Re-Deux treatment! First, Penélope Cruz and her frequent collaborator Pedro Almodóvar weave a tale of grief and ghost farts with Volver. Then, Ridley Scott squeezes Penélope Cruz into a packed ensemble film about the nihilistic nature of drug cartels in The Counselor. Together, our duo answers the crucial questions. Why do American films often fail Penélope Cruz? What does it look like when an inhuman entity makes a crime drama? Which films will they choose for next week's episode about Michael Mann?

First, Ip Man - Adam's alt good choice from our first martial arts films episode - gets a chance to show their fighting prowess. Then, Gotti - Thomas' alt bad choice from our John Travolta episode - proves that mob movies don't always go the way of Goodfellas! Together our heroes answer the crucial questions.
