20 Years, 4 Beers

We have mercifully come to the last two episodes of the year, and in this one we switch up the tradition of ending the year on the Best Picture winner, because we all know this was NOT the best picture of 2005... but we still push through for our fans though!

In this episode we discuss 2005's "Crash" along with the many ways it is inferior to many other films. We also talk about some fun new beers, have a guest along ...

Who says Spielberg can't do comedy? Wait...wrong movie...

On this new episode we cover the movie that somehow perfectly encapsulates the year of 2005 in movies. Starts out with promise, has some really great moments, but falls flat and in the end leaves you awkwardly sweating and crying in bed.

You may already see where this one is going, but in this episode we discuss 2005's Best Picture nominated Spielberg film, "Mun...

Another adaptation episode, except this one we LOVE! In the early 2000's Peter Jackson could do no wrong, and he proves it here with a timely update that still feels faithful to it's source in 2005's King Kong.

It's long, but worth it as they say, and so is this episode. Along with rewatching the Director's Cut, we enjoy four or five beers, stump each other with fun trivia, and have a lot of laughs along the...

Coming closer and closer to our rewatches of 2005 films brings us to another legendary book series adapted into a film... not Harry Potter, or Lord of the Rings, but the other one in The Chronicles of Narnia. This one is not what it wanted to be, but it works for our Christmas episodes of 2025 and we stuck with it!

We may not have loved the film, but we always love recording and having some new beers and a lot of laughs. We hope you...

Here we present you our Christmas episode... in January! Such is life when editing things yourself haha

In this episode we discuss a beloved Christmas classic - well, for us it is - in 2005's "KIss Kiss, Bang Bang." The film is more than just the relaunch of Robert Downey Jr's career, it stands as a wonderful addition to the obscure Christmas film genre, and we cannot recommend it enough.

Along with 4 new beers, w...

Did we record this episode in October? Yes, yes we did. But who cares cause it is out now!  After playing some catch up, we are back to a regular schedule and that begins with the release of the end of year episodes from 2025. 

First is this episode where we contractually discuss a Steven Spielberg film, in 2005's "War of the Worlds." Along with some new beers, almost all of which were good, fun trivia and an odd Freu...

Look - Tim and I don't always agree, and when we don't it is clearly Tim who must admit who is actually correct... and this episode is no different! We take another jump back to 20 years ago and rewatch Ron Howard's boxing movie "Cinderella Man" and enjoy some fun with a fellow podcaster as well.

Along with the film we discuss four new beers, enjoy a fun trivia session, and a trip down memory lane with an ol...

We couldn't decide which "raunchy" comedy to feature, so why not cover two for the price of one?! In this episode we look back at two mega hit comedies. One that launched a career of a comedy icon in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," the other that showed off the legendary comedic duo of the time in "Wedding Crashers."

There isn't a ton of depth here, but there are a lot of laughs, new beers, fun triv...

It's all happening!!! 5 years have passed (and a bit more since we recorded this) and somehow we are still here and still kicking...not unlike our film this week! We do something never before seen on 20/4 and cover a film we have ALREADY covered, with a twist. 

For our special anniversary episode, we rewatch the one that started it all, "Almost Famous: The Bootleg Cut" otherwise known as the director's cut. We ta...

We finally break out of the comic book streak, and decide to go further back again to cover one of our favorite films of all-time in 1995's "The Usual Suspects."

It is hard to understate the love we have for this film, and after listening to this episode I am sure you will understand what I am talking about.

Combined with 4 new beers, somehow trivia we had not known at this point, and a lot of laughs, we know that our ...

Hey, another comic book episode! We may not be consistent in posting episodes, but we sure can find random stretches of themes when we want! On this brand new episode we discuss an M. Night Shyamalan comic book film, one of our favorites, in 2005's "Unbreakable."

As usual we also cover four new beers, add in some fun trivia, another round of laughs and even a little potty break for fun. We think you will enjoy it as m...

Another day, another comic book episode of 20 Years, 4 Beers! As we continue this mid-season theme, we pivot to a much grittier graphic novel adaptation and cover 2005's "Sin City." This one was hard to find a clip for, I will admit, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying the rewatch, and some new beers to go with it.

Add in some fun trivia, and a lot of laughs, and you have another fantastic addition to the 20/4...

Welp...after another long break and a broken computer - we are back baby!

This episode brings up back into the mind of Christopher Nolan, and also back into the comic book world with 2005's "Batman Begins." Along with our love for this film (and it is a lot of love) we also cover 4 new beers, some fun trivia, and a whole lot of random thoughts.

Thank you for your support and patience and find us at 20years4beers.com fo...

A rare double feature from us tackles two of the greatest pop culture films, and arguable two of the most influential films of all-time, both celebrating milestone years this year. Jaws (50th Anniversary) and Back to the Future (40th Anniversary), both have a special place in our hearts, and have somehow gotten better with age.

In this episode we discuss both films, briefly talk about beer cause the stars of the show are these two m...

Just like "he who must not be named," we sometimes wait a while to show up, but when we do, we come back with a vengeance! You're not the same, you've changed. In this new episode we jump back into the films of 2005 and rewatch the "children's" classic "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire."

We feature a fun guest in this one, and along with some new beers, fun trivia, and all kinds of lau...

1995 was a launching pad of a year for Brad Pitt, as evidenced by our last two films. First it was the classic "Se7en," and then an Oscar nominated turn in the Uber weird Terry Gilliam directed "12 Monkeys." While we may not have liked the film nearly as much as either of us remembered, 1995 will be remembered as a coming out party for Pitt.

Along with some new beers, and trivia, we hope you enjoy this episode mo...

Another week, another episode NOT from 20 years ago! That's how we roll here on 20/4 baby!

On this week's episode we take a look back at the 30th anniversary of another all-time classic film from our youth (no bias to see here folks), and rewatch David Fincher's masterpiece "Se7en." Not for the faint of heart, the film holds up extremely well and is a prime example of 90's filmmaking at its finest.

Along...

Here we come with banger after banger from the 90's, and after our rewatch of "Heat" we follow it up with a top-10 favorite film for at least one of us in Ron Howard's "Apollo 13." This isn't even an if you know you know type film, this is one of those movies that you NEED to know about. Apollo 13 represents what is great and truly magical about filmmaking.

Needless to say, you are in store for a l...

We have finally made it to one of our favorite films of all-time... if "Seven" or "Fight Club" are movies for film bros, then 1995's "Heat" is a movie for film buffs.  This film had more than just a little influence on our love of films, especially heist thrillers, and director Michael Mann deserves all of the love for it.

Once again we take a longer look back than 20 years, but as usual we still s...
