EJ talks about nostalgia and Oscar nominations before getting into this week's movies. The Jason Statham Film Festival lands on In the Name of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, which is an absolute disaster.

Episode 142 - The Jason Statham Film Festival - Crank with Tim Kenny
Wednesday Jan 24, 2024
Wednesday Jan 24, 2024
Oh, it's a big one. One of the top movies in the Statham canon and the main reason we're all gathered here. TIm Kenny stops by to talk about 2006's Crank, the first movie that let our guy be funny AND do action at the same time. It's an absolute blast!
In all the excitement, I forgot to mention our awesome sponsor teesbysummer.com in the episode! Buy something and alleviate my guilt!

Episode 141 - Emergency Beekeeper Episode
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
We had to put a guest episode on hold for a week because The Beekeeper kicks so much ass. EJ just has to be enthusiastic about this wonderful, ridiculous move and share largely spoiler-fee thoughts. (Nothing too specific beyond what's in the trailer, promise!)
Brought to you by teesbysummer.com, just as awesome as The Beekeeper.

Episode 140 - More Like Jacked Efron
Wednesday Jan 10, 2024
Wednesday Jan 10, 2024
It's the first episode of the new year, and we're kicking 2024 off with a movie and mental health check-in. EJ gets vulnerable and also watches The Iron Claw. In the ongoing survey of Muppet movies, Muppet Treasure Island proves to be a disappointment and the Jason Statham Film Festival entry The Pink Panther (2006) has almost no Jason Statham in it.

This week, EJ talks about how great Andre Braugher was. So great. Then there's a look at Godzilla Minus One and The Boy and the Heron. Finally, the Jason Statham Film Festival settles in with Chaos, a movie that exists and does not engender any strong feelings.

Cranksgiving 2023 - The Crank 2 Drinking Game
Tuesday Nov 21, 2023
Tuesday Nov 21, 2023
It's the most magical time of the year! Cranksgiving, the only Jason Statham-themed holiday. After recording commentary episodes for both movies, this year we're watching Crank 2 and playing a drinking game. It gets sloppy and possibly sad. Check it out! It might not work as a commentary track because EJ accidentally rewinds at one point and he has to pause to use the restroom, but it's still fun!
Our wonder sponsor teesbysummer.com is not to blame for any of this.
Happy Cranksgiving!
