ICBYHST: Stand by Me
The leech scene. That’s what piqued my interest and got me to watch Stand by Me last week, along with the fact that Ted threatened me with fire when he found out I had never seen it in its entirety. I must have seen part of the movie on TV as a child because that […]

ICBYHST: Friday
In this installment of ICBYHST (I can’t believe you haven’t seen that!) I have been tasked with watching the movie Friday, after I made the remarking that I had never seen it on a podcast. I was told by many senior writers that if I didn’t make time for the movie, they would all resign at […]

The fight for first in the frozen pizza feud
You know the struggle—you’re at the grocery store with friends stocking up on food because you had nothing at home. You’re not shopping to win a Food Network competition, you’re there to find something cheap, something everyone will like and something that takes minimal skill to cook.

ICBYHST: The Revenant
So it took me quite a while to finally check out the Leonardo DiCaprio movie The Revenant. Allow me to clarify the following – this was a forced viewing (Ted Flint), so I could write this damn review, but whatever, here goes. This “inspired by true events” movie won some pretty prestigious awards for several categories […]

Titanic: Not My Love Story
At this time 19 years ago, “Titanic” was blowing up the box office. Now the ’90s produced a lot of wonderful things, including me, but this is not one of them. Not even “My Heart Will Go On” can save this shitheap masquerading as a story of true love.

Questions I have about The Santa Clause
At least once every Christmas season as a child, I’d sit on the floor of my grandparents’ house directly in front of their TV and watch The Santa Clause with my younger sister while shoving Fruit Roll-Ups in my mouth. So I was feeling a bit nostalgic when I found the 1994 Christmas classic on […]
