The John Woo Tang Clan - 11-12, 711, 1164, 1174
Count the number of times Sean says Lads from Liverpool or The Fab Four because in this, our longest episode yet, Anthony and Sean are talking about John Woo, death, and, for some reason music! We got The Seventh Seal kicking off our old chess debate, This is Spinal Tap taking our spine numbers above even eleven, A Hard Day's Night making us decide which of the Beatles we are, The Velvet Underground forcing a brief deep dive into 60s rock, and Last Hurrah for Chivalry bringing us home with John Woo. This special 5 movie episode includes consideration of which is the best musical note, a ranking of the greatest fictional bands of all time, lots of cap from Anthony, and something about hell and John Lennon that I just can't seem to remember...
If you'd like to one day hear Sean teach Anthony how to play Magic the Gathering on mic, please consider sharing this podcast with someone!

John Woo's Doug Walker - 9-10, 39, 423
For some reason, Anthony and Sean are obsessed with the Nostalgia Critic this week as they talk about the action-packed Hard Boiled, the animal-abuse-packed Walkabout, the Tarantino-inspiration-packed Tokyo Drifter, and the anti-American-sentiment-packed Walker. Listen to hear Sean address TikTok, Anthony seamlessly cut out a spicy joke his cohost made, and the great Walker Debate that shakes our podcast's core as we continue our John Woo miniseries.

(00:30:35) Walkabout (#10) dir. Nicolas Roeg

John Woo: Death in Jewoone - 7-8, 565, 1101
Anthony and Sean pop the cork on a new miniseries on the films of John Woo! Along the way, tune in as they remember A Night to Remember, never forget The Killer, reminisce on Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator, and fourth thing Adam Sandler’s Uncut Gems. This week’s mayhem includes Metal Gear Solid references that explain why Sean’s mic quality is so bad, a personal anecdote about maybe the worst place to see Uncut Gems, and lots of Jim faces at the camera.

Kleptomania, Hair Excess, Sore Feet, Nuclear Breath... - 5-6, 44, 594
Join the episode as old as time where Anthony and Sean basically ignore 400 Blows in favor of Beauty and the Beast theming; the Beauty is the Archers' classic The Red Shoes while the Beast takes the form of Japan's relationship to nuclear power in Godzilla. This week's bits include Sean comparing himself to every character, a brilliant Osmosis Jones metaphor, Anthony's sneaky ideas on how to take out Godzilla (or was it Gojira?), and an extended tangent about NBA tweets that has nothing to do with anything.
(00:00:00) Introduction
(00:02:24) The 400 Blows (#5) dir. François Truffaut
(00:24:28) Beauty and the Beast (#6) dir. Jean Cocteau

The 90s Time Traveler - 3-4, 479, 289
Only 90s kids will get this episode! Western Civilization continues its deterioration as Anthony and Sean take their Criterion Collection mission through a Twilight Zone impression in Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes, the disturbing raunchiness of Amarcord, the mind-expanding philosophies of My Dinner With Andre, and the devastatingly accurate documentary work of Hoop Dreams. Discussion includes Sean roasting old-school comedy again, whether Volpina would give you a side quest, and a final joke that we promise we mean no offense by.
(00:00:00) Introduction
(00:05:40) The Lady Vanishes (#3) dir. Alfred Hitchcock
(00:30:48) Amarcord (#4) dir. Federico Fellini

French Guys and Samurai - 1-2, 306, 1057
The epic journey begins. Anthony and Sean start their mission to complete the Criterion Collection by diving into four films with themes of honor in death, samurai code, and lonely guys killing dudes. This week is all about the boys as we talk about the very French The Grand Illusion, Kurosawa's renowned masterpiece Seven Samurai, and two very closely related films, Le Samourai and Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. Topics include whether people pretend to like chess, what our catchphrases should be, Timothee Chalamet's acting heir (it's Sean), whether movie scores were good before the 70s, which of the seven samurai we are, and Ghost Dog vs. John Wick.

(01:00:20) Seven Samurai (#2) dir. Akira Kurosawa
