"Legend has it, when the Santa Anas blow, anything can happen." Happy Holidays Burners! Join us as we close out the year talking about one of our favorite holiday movies, The Holiday.

Today we’re trying something a little different. For a long time, we’ve been talking about the Hollywood stock we’ve bought, how it turned out, and whose future we’d invest in today. Our inescapable hubris made us believe you’d like to hear that conversation, so HERE IT IS! You’re gonna hear names like Skeet Ulrich and James Purefoy (busts), Rosario Dawson and Anna Kendrick (stocks we’ll never sell), and Anya Tayl...
"I will speak for you, father. I speak for all mediocrities in the world. I am their champion. I am the patron's saint." Join us as we discuss the pitch perfect masterpiece Amadeus. This film has everything one would want and more. We can't do the film justice but we certainly try. Listen for Jedd coming in with an extremely hot take right out of the gate and listen closely for when Cole compares himself to ...

“Wax on, wax off”.....We bring you the quintessential film about karate in the Valley, "The Karate Kid".

Jedd gives us his thoughts on the many Karate Kid pretenders, Cole argues ab...
"Tonight we're not thinking -- just doing." Let's travel back to the 80's to celebrate this film that was made in 2007 but released in 2011! We feel this gem went under the radar and judging by the box office we're not wrong. Join us as we cover all things Fogler, Grace, Faris and Pratt. We love an homage when it's done right and this film gets it right. All the way down to the "boyeeee" dance battle. ...

This week was the much-anticipated release of David Fincher’s new film “Mank”. Jedd gave it a 9.4/10 and Cole gave it a 9/10, so it’s safe to say we loved it. We get into our first impressions of this remarkable love letter to old Hollywood and the masterpiece “Citizen Kane”. It’s gorgeous, poignant, funny, and unveils the true origin of the Cigarette Burns name.
We also reviewed “The Devil All the Time” (7.2/10), “Time Trap”...

“It’s not your fault” – Actually, it’s Cole’s fault. Thanks to some very unplanned work stuff, Cole took forever to get this edit done.

"Well it's Groundhog Day...again". On this episode Cole and Jedd go round and round as they discuss and dissect all things Groudhog Day. This film may appear to be a simple comedy but there is so much more beyond the shadow. This film has it all, comedy, existential questions, philisophical pursuits and of course all the flapjacks you can eat. So sit back relax and sit back and relax and sit back and relax b...
“Cow….another cow. I think that was the same cow.” That’s right Burners, we start chasing tornadoes with the 1996 classic, “Twister”. Jan De Bont delivers an incredible disaster flick despite being a bit of a disaster himself behind the scenes. We get into all the meteorology and break down why this movie works, why the script is terrible, and why Cole thinks this is a fantastic “Mighty Ducks” remake. Strap down, get in the basemen...
Today’s episode is an experimental journey through “Happy Accidents”, the 2000 Marisa Tomei/Vincent D’Onofrio romance. We mixed it up a bit and tried to have some fun with this off-beat, often bad, always bizarre time-travel romantic comedy. Cole watched the first half; Jedd watched the second and we then recorded our guesses as to what happened. Spoiler alert – Cole had no idea. We had a blast trying to dissect where this script w...
"The Glove… I had no problem with The Glove." This week we go dancing and basically gush over the greatest sports documentary of all time. We're of course talking about The Last Dance. The ten part espn series on the six time nba champion Chicago Bulls featuring the greatest to ever lace them up, Michael Jordan. To say this is a review is a stretch, it's 20 minutes of us talking about how perfect this series...
“Sorry, I just took an upper decker” - That’s right, this week’s episode tackles the cult classic, MacGruber. We found a shoelace, ping pong ball, chewed gum, and a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon and turned it into a banger. We get into American Exceptionalism, car stereos, how many pumps the MPAA gives you, and why this movie lives on.

"Pain don't hurt" Or does it? No no, it definitely does not hurt. You know what else doesn't hurt? Doing a deep dive on the 1989 Patrick Swayze classic Road House. This film has so much subtley and layers and subtext and philosophical conundrums and...who are we kidding this film is all about kicking ass, monster trucks, explosions and hot women!! It has everything you would want in a film about a legendary cooler...
“THERE’S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!!” – or is there? In honor of what should be the very beginning of the baseball season, we talk about one of the greatest sports films of all time, “A League of Their Own”.
