Mind In The Gutter

This was originally a MIGsy Film Club episode and is being added to the Mind In the Gutter feed to complete our Final Destination coverage. From the original:

Every year around Halloween Josh convinces Christine to watch a couple of spooky movies. This year it was John Carpenter's adaptation of Stephen King's Christine and the original Final Destination. It turns out having the same name as a killer car can make you a fan of it and...

Since we're about halfway through 2024, it's about time to look back on the films of 2023. This is the finale of our annual movie awards as it exists in this form, and we focus more on our personal favorites and underrated films than on choosing winners. So join us as we raise a beer to film and uncover some hidden gems that deserve a watch.

We are back for 2024 and looking to be more consistent in our podcasting (maybe). Since it's dry January, we are trying a non-alcoholic wine called Win. We talk about how 2023 wrapped up and a few movies still on our mind, including Mean Girls the Musical, Salt Burn, and a surprising Hallmark time loop movie called Round and Round.  We then look at some movies coming out in the first half of the new year and gauge whether we're exc...

The Indiana Jones series is just another cultural touchstone that Christine missed out on, so Josh takes her through the entire series! We watched from Raiders of the Lost Ark through The Dial of Destiny and decide if the series holds up from someone with fresh eyes and a seasoned fan. Through the journey Christine discovers Harrison Ford was a hunk, Ken Huy Quan always had acting chops, Crystal Skull may not be terrible, and if Di...

The boys are back in town talking about summer movies and virtual worlds. We are getting multiverse fatigue while breaking down if the The Flash is actually any good, if Across The Spider-Verse holds up to the original, if Rise of The Beasts improves The Transformers series, and more! Also, Dan and Josh both went in on the PSVR2 and discuss how the virtual experience has been and which games are highlights.  Dan prefers mesh chairs...

In part 2 of our Fatal Attraction special, Josh and Christine go through the Paramount+ series. We watch in three episode chunks and finish with the final two (all in this episode). We compare the series to the film that inspired it and if we think it's worth a watch. How do Joshua Jackon and Lizzy Caplan compare to Michael Douglas and Glenn Close? How does the change from the 80s to the 2000s affect the story? We'll let you know, ...

We all survived January with limited amounts of alcohol and give our updates from the new year. We then dive into what movies should be nominated for next month's MIGsy Awards! Check out the substack link below for the official list of nominees (though this pod is releasing before the list so give it a couple of days). Dan wants to take his new car off some jumps, Joshua tells us which Disney vacation spot is better, David can hand...

It's the Holiday Season, and the guys are discussing the rise and fall of craft beer, watching some movie trailers, and trying to figure out the deal with The Christmas Shoes. We also saw Andor, Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, and Wakanda Forever. Dan doesn't trust Indiana Jones, David likes free beer, and Josh thinks some directors need to be reined in.

In our annual Halloween edition of the MIGsy Film Club Josh and Christine solve the mystery of why Poltergeist got a PG rating and answer the question of if The Mummy is a Halloween movie. There is also brief coverage of Barbarian, Smile, Teen Wolf, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, and My Best Friend's Exorcism. It's another spooktacular version of our film club but in the regular Mind In the Gutter feed!

Can a bunch of beer and wine drinkers be converted into hard seltzer lovers? We have long been seltzer skeptics, but we put 12 different brands (4 macro / 8 craft) and 20+ flavors into the competition. Join us as we find a couple to love and more to hate in part two of our summer series. Dan chugs Robitussin, Joshua sheds light on seltzer's popularity, David ruins the outro, and Josh finally completes this podcast.

The group decides which movies from 2021 should be nominated for the MIGsy Awards next month. We go through each category and pick out the most interesting movies and then chat a little about The Book of Boba Fett, Peacemaker, Marry Me, and Arcane. Dan is about to fly solo, David wants more than a story, and Josh has become a recluse.
