Andrew really should just become a regular host at this point, dude. Returning, yet again, for one of his all-time favorite movies, Andrew joins Lindsay and Scott to discuss what might actually be the quintessential high school film of the 90's - even more so than Clueless. We said what we said. Also, this has Allison Janney and just... you can't go wrong. I mean... come on.

Bullet-time! Long, slow-mo shots in mid-air! Reverse kanji and a sushi menu! We've got you covered with all the green-tinted, leather-weather, trench-coat-rocking scifi-action as Scott, Matt and Andrew tackle The Wachowski's "The Matrix", starring Keanu Reeves and Laurence FIshburne. From the incredible visuals to the wooden acting to the still-not-entirely-resolved plot hole(s), they're here to take you as far down the rabbit hole...

We've made it to the final film in 1998, at long last. And boy what a... just a cinematic... ... movie to go out on. Or something. Y'know, we gotta be honest here: Comin' into the turn of the century has really made us re-examine some of these classic childhood films and, frankly, we've found them severely lacking when compared to how we remembered them. Like, do you guys remember that time we reviewed "The Never-Ending Story"? Yea...

Sweet Mary, Mother of Chimichanga and all that is 4th Wall Breaking humor, we're back! And what a movie to return on, too. From the innumerable cameos (including one on this very episode from our beloved friend Matt-pool - thanks to technical difficulties...) to the lengthy discussion of what implications this has on the overall MCU and the future of several of the characters, we bring you our "certified fresh out of our brown pant...

The first request of 2024 AND of Season 4 brings us the most riotous film we've had to date - for one reason only: Dougray Scott's "Prince Henry". Dude's got some real big feelings, okay? Like... enough that we basically forgot Drew Berrymore's "Danielle" or Anjelica Huston's "Rodmilla de Ghent" were even in this! Strap in for hilarity, drama and a little dash of even more stupid humor for Scott to enjoy as we review 1998's "Ever A...

So, we did mention them early on in the episode but it's important for us to note here that the Olsen Twins DID actually have their own version of this film in 1995, starring Kirsty Alley and Steve Guttenberg, called "It Takes Two". That's a little fun fact there for ya! Anyways, we're not here for that - we're here for 1998's debut of Lindsay Lohan (and subsequently Nancy Myers as a Director), "The Parent Trap", a classic Disney t...

LETS. GET DOWN. TO BUSINESSSSS!!!! To enjoy... the poooood! Man is that song just a "Turn it up to 11", though. Lindsay and Scott take on the final success of Disney's Renaissance Era before things begin to turn murky, at best, with Mulan, starring Ming-Na Wen, Eddie Murphy and BD Wong, with accompanying music by the talents of Donnie Osmond, Christina Aguilera, Stevie Wonder and 9- wait, that can't be right... 98 Degrees?!

So, Scott was sick last week, otherwise this would've been out all the sooner. We're sorry about that, gang! But, here's another war movie for ya, for being so patient! And man what a war movie it is, isn't it? Some might even say it's the penultimate example of what all war films should aspire to be, with many failing in its wake. But just what makes this so good? Was it the acting? The drama? The storytelling? Well, Scott, along ...

Welcome, one and all, to Episode One of Season 4!! We've taken a month off to clear our heads, get our houses in order and... completely let them fall apart all over again. What can we say? We're nothing if not consistently inconsistent! But, finally we're here with our final film of 1997 - Don Bluth's "Anastasia", starring Meg Ryan and John Cusack, to name a few. How historically accurate is this movie? Why was it so successful? I...

We'd like to sum this film up with a single phrase, if we could be so bold: Yada-yada. Did we have fun? Oh for sure! Was it hilarious? Most outrageously so! Did it have a proper villain and a plotline devoid of holes bigger than a jump-point entryway? ...-ahem- anyway... Come to your own conclusions, think for yourselves, draw with your own fingerpaints... but be sure to check out our review, nonetheless!

While this might mainly cover Episode 8 and all its finale-ness, we do connect some dots along the, rehash old theories of Scott's that either came true or were so insultingly wrong he really should just read the books at this point. Come on, son! Erin returns for her final stint in the WoT-era of the show, finally getting to bounce ideas and thoughts off Scott, who has otherwise been kept sequestered away from her spoilery knowled...

    And at last, we arrive at the conclusion... of Season 2! Was this what we expected? Did it match the flow of the books and set things yet to come up correctly? Listen in on last time with Lindsay and Erin from "Isn't It Neat!" as they break down all those twisty, turny, dark and daring spoilers from the books! What a conclusion it was, indeed!

    It's nearly time. We've nearly hit the end of the road for this incredible season and honestly, we're sad. Two years we waited for this to come back and in almost a flash, it's practically gone. Actually by the time this releases the final episode will be upon us. Damn, what an insane trip its been!

That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating.

Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
