A proposito di questo titolo

In this podcast, three longtime friends revisit the movies they grew up with to determine whether they’re still classics or just relics of their time. With a mix of humor, deep dives, and pop culture insights, Seth, Justin, and Brian break down what still works, what doesn’t, and whether nostalgia is clouding our judgment.

  • Episode 20: Tournament of Boddickers
    Jan 13 2026

    The holidays are over, the calendar has flipped, and the Regular Guys are back with a grab-bag episode that spirals gloriously out of control. This time around, we revisit early episodes of the show, retroactively crown Boddicker Award winners, and then throw those winners into a completely unnecessary Tournament of Champions to determine who reigns supreme.

    Along the way, we debate, overthink, argue, laugh, and apply wildly inconsistent logic to questions no one asked but everyone secretly cares about. It’s part movie talk, part game show, and part fever dream—powered by beers, bold opinions, and the unshakable confidence that this all makes perfect sense.

    No deep analysis. No correct answers. Just peak Regular Guy energy.

  • Episode 19: Gremlins
    Dec 12 2025

    Gremlins (1984) — Does It Hold Up?

    On this episode of The Regular Guy Movie Show, we’re decking the halls with chaos, mayhem, and tiny green murder goblins as we revisit Gremlins (1984) — the Christmas movie that broke the MPAA, traumatized a generation, and proved that maybe some pets should come with an instruction manual.

    What starts as a cute, fuzzy holiday gift quickly turns into a full-blown small-town disaster, complete with barroom brawls, exploding microwaves, and a body count the movie never really bothers to address. Along the way, we ask the important questions:
    Who’s actually the hero here? Why does the main character barely speak? And how did Lynn Peltzer become the most competent action hero of the 1980s without anyone noticing?

    What We Talk About

    • Why Gremlins feels less like a complete movie and more like a collection of incredible scenes stitched together
    • The movie’s wild tonal whiplash: cute → gory → goofy → deeply dark → back again
    • How Gremlins (along with Temple of Doom) directly led to the creation of the PG-13 rating
    • The baffling lack of agency and dialogue given to Billy, the supposed main character
    • How random side characters — including snowplow drivers — get more personality than Billy
    • The complete absence of consequences after Kingston Falls is basically destroyed
    • Whether chaos alone is enough to carry a movie… and how much beer helps

    Other things we talk about:

    • The Gremlins Worst-Case Survival Quiz — real scenarios pulled from The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook, because if gremlins took over your town, you’d better know how to jump into a dumpster correctly
    • Pick Your Poison — would you rather rewatch Gremlins or go head-to-head with some of its most obvious cinematic cousins?

    Final Verdict:

    Gremlins is messy, chaotic, inconsistent, and occasionally brilliant.
    It doesn’t always know what it wants to be, doesn’t bother tying up loose ends, and shrugs off the fact that a lot of people probably died.

    It's not a great movie...but it gets a whole lot better if you start with a six-pack.

    Thanks for listening, drinking along with us, and surviving another cinematic disaster.

  • Episode 18: Empire Records
    Nov 27 2025
    Damn the Man, Save the Plot Holes

    On this episode of The Regular Guy Movie Show, we dive head-first into Empire Records — a movie with a killer soundtrack, a mountain of nostalgia… and more structural problems than the building code should legally allow.

    We revisit this 90s cult favorite with 30 years of life experience, far better taste in movies, and absolutely no patience for Lucas’s philosophical nonsense. Along the way, we confront the film’s chaotic tone, its missing 40 minutes, its baffling character decisions, and the bold creative choice to have Joe commit aggravated battery behind closed doors and then go right back to work like nothing happened.

    And yes… we talk about Rex Manning Day. And yes… it’s as awkward as you remember.

    🎬 In This Episode We Cover:

    • The Empire Records Rewatch Experience

    Why this movie still feels fun, even when absolutely nothing in it makes sense anymore.

    • Lucas: Agent of Philosophical and Financial Disaster

    We try (and fail) to understand this man’s motivations, life choices, worldview, and math skills.

    • Corey& A.J.: A Love Story Nobody Asked For

    Meltdowns, amphetamines, terrible timing, and unclear motivations make this the least romantic romance ever filmed.

    • Joe & Lucas: The Most Confusing Father-Son Dynamic Ever Written

    Was he a foster kid? Why does Joe hit him? Why does nobody react to this? Why is Joe’s entire retirement plan destroyed by one teenager’s night of craps? We ask all the questions the movie doesn’t.

    • The Soundtrack: Certified Banger After Banger

    One of the only things the movie nails perfectly — and we celebrate it.

    • Our “Grammarly Butchered Lyrics” Game

    Iconic soundtrack songs rewritten like they were edited by an emotionally dead corporate proofreader. Justin and Brian suffer. You benefit.

    Damn the Man. Save the Empire. Hydrate between beers.
