Rocky II (1979) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At the very end of 1976’s Rocky, our title character makes it clear that he doesn’t want a rematch. But, Hollywood and boxing are extremely similar in that if something is successful, people will clamor for more. But writer/star Sylvester Stallone found himself ignoring those calls. Instead, he wanted to to prove that he wasn’t a one trick pony. But after his directorial debut Paradise Alley and the Norman Jewison directed F.I.S.T. were both critical and box office failures, Stallone and United
Rocky (1976) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After taking Toy Story to task and having each hosts’ list of favorites of that series be different from one another, how do you follow a series like that up?? How about stepping outside and finding out! Here is yet another series Garrett has done in the past.

But this time, Matt, Adam, and Garrett are seeing and reviewing it at the exact same time. That’s right. It’s time to finally conclude the Toy Story retrospective with this review of Toy Story 5! Listen to the podcasters talk about their theatrical experiences, go detail by detail through the film’s plot, and finally reveal what they’re doing next. Here’s a hint: brin
Lightyear (2022) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Conceived and released between Toy Story 4 and 5, 2022’s Lightyear is the first film released within the Toy Story universe to be considered a flop. Rejected by audiences and critics alike, there is no reason two people who hadn’t seen it before would come away liking it. But that, as they say, is why we record the podcast. Listen to this review of Lightyear as both Garrett and Adam watch it for the very first time. Is Lightyear’s derision deserved? What about Matt, who did actually see Lightyea
