So I Married A Movie Geek

BREAKING NEWS! The So I Married a Movie Geek foray into Director's Month is being abbreviated - cut short! ended! sayonara! - to make room for an important announcement and subsequent podcast... Whatever could it be? Are J and K moving to the Ukraine, becoming gypsies and hiring Maggie as their manager?? No. But we promise the news and ensuing discussion are pretty EPIC. And by epic, we definitely mean 'crazy' and 'all over the place.' Parenthood and Hugh Grant's Nine Months make for some good in-between conversation, but really, this podcast is all about US. Because we are VERY ATTRACTIVE and PEOPLE CARE ABOUT US!!!!!! ...Or so we have deluded ourselves to believe. This podcast is rated PG-13!

Krissy's finally been Hitchcock'd! YES! For our next week in "Directors Month," we watched Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960) and Rear Window (1954), making them the very first Hitchcock movies Krissy has EVER SEEN. Say whaaaaaaat???!?? Thank Jeebus we have this podcast so we could rectify that crazy happenstance. And since we were rollin' late on this episode, we tried to keep it shortish, even using a stopwatch. The timed discussion includes crazy talk 'bout Norman Bates' "nervousity," bad taste AIDS jokes, Janet "Worst Crook of All Time" Leigh, controversial flushing toilets, bad James Stewart impressions, our personal Rear Windows, the flash defense and Supreme Hottie Grace Kelly! It's all PG-ish and totally in TECHNICOLOR!!!!!

January = Director's Month here at So I Married a Movie Geek, and what better way to start it off than with two movies by the Coors Brothers -- err, Coen Brothers. (The former brothers tried to make beer and failed. The latter make movies!) So J and K got saddled up for a crazy, greedy/murderous romp through all the states they'd never want to actually be in for prolonged periods of time. Yes -- all the way to Fargo and the land where Mexican mariachi bands awaken you from your bloody stupor with song (aka No Country for Old Men)! Good times, folks. Good times. And by 'good times' we definitely mean 'holy hell, we're glad we're not hapless characters caught in a Coen Bros' character cycle of corruption and avarice.' But hey, if you like cowboys (but not aliens), North Dakota / Minnesota accents (but not ever living there), or brothers who make fine cinema instead of crappy beer, listen on! Rated PG-ish...?

Happy new year, y'all!! Before we proceeded with the awesomeness that is 2012, we took an episode-long look back at our favorite films of 2011! So we each had our own personal lists with some honorable mentions on the side! Which movies would be the ones we'd most likely watch again and again a few years from now? If we had 10 flicks from the past year to take onto a desert island, which ones would we choose? Could we (gasp) have the same #1 movie??? ALSO, Krissy looks at the list of 68 movies (!!!) she finally caught up with due to the podcast and chooses her favorites and least favorites! This episode is rated PG-13!

TOM CRUISE POWER! Since Krissy (of course) had never seen a Mission: Impossible movie beforehand, this week we watched the 1996 original in preparation for an IMAX screening of the brand new Mission 4! This one involved GHOSTS! Or did it? Which one wowed us more? And what did we think of the extended trailer that ran before the movie for The Dark Knight Rises? You should listen! Because, well, we talk about all of that...stuff! We also discuss exploding chewing gum and French aquarium restaurants, Cruise's running skills, climbing up buildings with sticky gloves in Dubai, EMILIO ESTEVEZ!!!, Paula Patton's blazing hotness, Jeremy Renner's Bourne-ness, Charlie Brown teacher villains and much much more! And it's all relatively PG! This podcast episode will self-destruct in 3 seconds...

Christmas came early this year, folks - in the form of awards screeners! So many screeners, so little time... How will J and K ever watch them all? This week your favorite Movie Geek couple gets all nostalgic with movies that vaguely remind them of their own lives: Young Adult and The Descendants. Cause, you know, we totally have some rich, royal ancestors that left us with acres and acres of virgin Hawaiian land. Just thinking about it gives us Kushlash. That or a hangover. We can't really remember how much we drank last night with our friend Patton Oswalt. Oh well! Also, Charlize Theron and George Clooney! Wowzers. But please listen to this week's podcast. It's a roller coaster ride filled with amazingly wonderful wrong turns down KenTacoHut lane. And it's rated PG! So there.
