We can't be the only people who has wondered what a modern-day recasting of "Forrest Gump" would look like, right? Instead of having Forrest Gump be born in the 40's, our new Forrest could be born in 80s. This would give him a whole new set up historical and cultural events to be a part of. Join us as we all bring some ideas to the table and we ultimately pick the actors who will step into those iconic roles. Enjoy!

"This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time." Welcome to Thursday, our new release day and we have a doosie for you. Fight Club is one of those movies that defined the late 90s/early 00s. It was edgy, poetic, intense and the twist was one of the greatest in film history. But 25 years later, we've all grown up and we're wondering if this movie is as good as we remember. We dive REALLY deep into this one and you will ...

It's no secret that we usually disagree with IMDB and think that a movie should be rated much higher than the rating on their website. But every once in awhile, we see a movie that is rated TOO HIGH. On today's brunch, we each give 5 movies that are a 7.0 or higher on IMDB and then tell you how much lower that rating should actually be in our opinion. These might sting- listener beware.

What would it really be like to emerge into the world after 35 years in a bunker? Did Adam ever, ya know, do the thing we do when we are ...
