Episode 160 - Who Let the Dogs Out?
Flick Yeah!
Thanks for your patience, y'all! It's been a tough coupla weeks (months, year) for everyone and we sincerely hoping you're finding ways to take care of yourself. This is an episode that we recorded in mid-March. While we intentionally skipped our February ep and are posting this one WAY late, we promise we're not going anywhere. At Flick Yeah! HQ, we've begun some production talks on how to continue bringing you fun movie content that still excites us, as creators. In the meantime, enjoy our discussion of a few dog movies and the first "new" movie we've reviewed in a while! IN THEATERS AKA...

Episode 159 - Hercules
Flick Yeah!
Happy 2021! We decided on some lighter fare this month to take a break from the world crumbling around us. We watched 4 very different interpretations of the story of Hercules and WOW, what a ride.

Episode 158 - Dark Element Runner
Flick Yeah!
SPOILERS ABOUND! Hannah's sister Caitlin joins the podcast for our final episode of 2020! We discuss the queer "rom com" currently streaming on Hulu and then dive into the Blade Runner franchise and a couple movies it inspired. Enjoy! IN THEATERS AKA YOUR LIVING ROOM Happiest Season - A bit of a disappointment but worth watching for the conversations it sparked! THEME MOVIES Blade Runner - Quiet and beautiful (for many people). The Fifth Element - Just a silly good time. Dark City - "I didn't hate it!" Blade Runner 2049 - I hope Ryan Gosling was wearing a step tracker. Check out the podcast!...

Episode 156 - Talk is Cheap, Voting is Free
Flick Yeah!
Happy October everybody! No new movie this episode and since the presidential election is just around the corner, we decided to watch a few movies related to elections and campaigns. Some helped us take our minds off of the current state of the world and others were a harsh reminder of how bad things feel sometimes. There's something for everyone! Vote vote vote. THEME MOVIES Speechless (1994) - This one did not live up to its potential. The Manchurian Candidate (2004) - What are you doing, Meryl Streep?? Napoleon Dynamite - Our thoughts on this one make us feel more out of the mainstream than...

Episode 155 - Chadwick Boseman
Flick Yeah!
The world lost a great talent much too soon on 8/28/20. We watched a few of his films in celebration of his life, and now we only miss him more. For discussions of 2 of his other films, check out Black Panther in episode 137 and Marshall in episode 119.

Episode 154 - There's a Fire Starting in My Heart
Flick Yeah!
Another month, another batch of movies! Listen in as we chat about some badass women getting revenge. First, we discuss a new release that didn't quite meet our expectations. Enjoy! IN THEATERS AKA YOUR LIVING ROOM Babysplitters - Compelling premise, poor execution. THEME MOVIES The Quick and the Dead - How old do we think Leo was during filming? Kill Bill: Vol 1 - Urgh, it fits the theme. Fine. Chinjeolhan geumjassi (Lady Vengeance) - Hard to follow but worth a watch. The Nightingale - Hard to watch but worth a follow. Wait..

Episode 153 - Anne & Hannah Reunited
Flick Yeah!
And it feels so good. Hannah has returned from her sojourn to Chicago, not that it REALLY matters right now since we can't leave our homes. But it's lovely to have her back and do some socially-distant hangs. To celebrate our reunion, we watched some movies featuring our names, with... mixed results.

Episode 152 - Representation Matters
Flick Yeah!
It's June 2020 and there's a lot going on. In honor of Pride month and the Black Lives Matter movement, we chose a few movies by queer black filmmakers. As usual, we kick things off with a new movie (that would have been in theaters) that you can rent on demand today. Enjoy! IN THEATERS AKA YOUR LIVING ROOM The High Note - Annoyed that the lead is white but still a good time. THEME MOVIES Brother to Brother - Sweet, thought-provoking, and relevant. D.E.B.S. - A farcically good time! Pariah - It's all in what's not being said. The Paperboy - I wouldn't know where to start if I tried. And I...

Episode 151 - Super Brains!
Flick Yeah!
For this episode we decided to explore the "we only use 10% of our brains" myth by watching some cranium-expanding films. Turns out these filmmakers were only using 10% of their energy making these movies. Still some interesting stuff though, and we kicked things off with a new Netflix release that was sweet enough to almost make up for our disappointing theme movies.
info_outlineNo new movies caught our eye in early September so we have 5 theme movies for you this month! We were feeling nautical so we picked 5 movies about the ocean and the sea-faring vessels that traverse it. Able seamen a-plenty.
THEME MOVIES
Dead Calm - Baby Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane show us their butts. And I guess some other stuff happens.
Titanic - A stunning achievement. Hannah awards it Flick Yeah's first perfect 10!
The Perfect Storm - Not as great as Anne remembered but still very gripping.
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World - A big movie full of small moments.
Moana - The only disappointment here is Hannah.
