Episode 160 - Who Let the Dogs Out? 04/25/2021

Episode 160 - Who Let the Dogs Out? 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 YOUR LIVING ROOM Blithe Spirit - Fun but misses the mark. THEME MOVIES Old Yeller - Why is this a classic? Sounder - Beautiful film we hadn't heard of. Highly recommend! Marley & Me - Too cheesy or just cheesy enough? Megan Leavey - Bad title, sweet film.

Episode 159 - Hercules 01/19/2021

Episode 159 - Hercules 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/index/show/flickyeah/id/17602268

Episode 158 - Dark Element Runner 12/21/2020

Episode 158 - Dark Element Runner 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 10/15/2020

Episode 156 - Talk is Cheap, Voting is Free 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 the title character. The Purge: Election Year - Not scary, not particularly thrilling, but still a good time.

Episode 155 - Chadwick Boseman 09/21/2020

Episode 155 - Chadwick Boseman 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/index/show/flickyeah/id/16088657

Episode 154 - There's a Fire Starting in My Heart 08/17/2020

Episode 154 - There's a Fire Starting in My Heart 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 07/18/2020

Episode 153 - Anne & Hannah Reunited 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/index/show/flickyeah/id/15255461

Episode 152 - Representation Matters 06/17/2020

Episode 152 - Representation Matters 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 tried.

Episode 151 - Super Brains! 05/21/2020

Episode 151 - Super Brains! 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. /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/14508398

Episode 150 - Deja Gold 04/16/2020

Episode 150 - Deja Gold For this milestone episode, we revisit an early episode! We watched all the same movies from episode 50 and discuss our thoughts without listening to our reviews from 5 years ago. Listen in to see if anything has changed (particularly since Hannah has a terrible memory)! THEME MOVIES Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) - Psst. Have you heard about this movie? It's good. The Gold Rush - We love Charlie Chaplin! The Golden Child - Great if you like your Eddie Murphy with a side of 'isms... The Golden Bowl - We. Can't. Even. Fool's Gold - Not as bad as Hannah remembers. E-mail us at [email protected], follow us on Twitter and Instagram , like us on facebook at , and subscribe/write a review on iTunes!

Episode 149 - Alien Friends & Foes 03/21/2020

Episode 149 - Alien Friends & Foes Well folks, the world is falling apart. We did not plan ahead to be topical, but our theme still turned out to be surprisingly fitting for these crazy times. Use your newly increased couch time to watch these movies and see what we mean! Stay safe out there. /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/13641773

Episode 148 - Good as Hell 02/15/2020

Episode 148 - Good as Hell We skipped the Oscars this year and decided to watch the NAACP best picture noms instead. Listen to our thoughts and then check out the show on BET February 22nd! OUTSTANDING MOTION PICTURE Dolemite is My Name - Fun and heart-warming. Harriet - A story worth telling. Just Mercy - Solid acting across the board. Queen & Slim - Check out episode 147 for our in-depth review. Us - Meh. OTHER NOMS MENTIONED Black and Blue - Gah. You can skip this one. Little - It's Big but, ya know, the other way! Luce - It's on Hulu if anyone wants to watch it and tell Hannah what the hell it was about! The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind - Really sweet. Worth a watch. /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/13194191

Mini Episode 4 - The Commitments 01/18/2020

Mini Episode 4 - The Commitments Our second mini episode this month, all that was salvageable from our episode on movies about fake bands. Luckily the best movie was the one that survived! We discuss The Commitments, a super lovely Irish film from 1991. Check it out! /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/12789842

Mini Episode 3 - Underwater 01/18/2020

Mini Episode 3 - Underwater Welcome to a new decade! We started it off with some extremely frustrating technical difficulties. Instead of re-recording an entire episode, we are posting 2 mini episodes this month! We saw Underwater in theaters, which was somewhat fun but very unoriginal. Enjoy our discussion! /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/12789776

Episode 147 - Have a Holly Jolly Netflix 12/15/2019

Episode 147 - Have a Holly Jolly Netflix Happy December, listeners! This episode, we saw the intense but amazing Queen & Slim. We highly recommend it! Then we watched a bunch of new Netflix original holiday movies. Some were better than others. All gave us plenty to say. Enjoy! IN THEATERS Queen & Slim - Beautiful in so many ways. THEME MOVIES Holiday Rush - Holiday rush me outta here, am I right? Klaus - So sweet! Add it to your holiday rotation! The Knight Before Christmas - Delivers exactly what it promises.

Episode 145 - I Know What Kevin Williamson Did in the 90s Happy Halloween, listeners! For this month's episode we got in the spooky spirit and watched a few not-too-scary teen thrillers. But first we kick things off with Hollywood's latest take on a man falling in love with his cell phone. Enjoy! IN THEATERS Jexi - Hannah might be expecting too much out of this one. THEME MOVIES Scream - "Behind you, Jamie!" I Know What You Did Last Summer - And it's concerning. The Faculty - An all-around good time at the movies. Teaching Mrs. Tingle - Where do we even start?

Episode 144 - I'm On A Boat 09/16/2019

Episode 144 - I'm On A Boat No 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 - Baby Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane show us their butts. And I guess some other stuff happens. - A stunning achievement. Hannah awards it Flick Yeah's first perfect 10! - Not as great as Anne remembered but still very gripping. - A big movie full of small moments. - The only disappointment here is Hannah.

Episode 143 - You Ain't Never Had a Friend Like Me 08/15/2019

Episode 143 - You Ain't Never Had a Friend Like Me We miss Robin Williams so this month we decided to dedicate an entire episode to him. But first (and a little begrudgingly), we kick things off with Tarantino's latest flick. Enjoy! IN THEATERS Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - If you don't know your American history from the 1960s, we suggest you read up before seeing this one. THEME MOVIES Good Morning, Vietnam - Take a drink every time a character says the title of the movie. Awakenings - So encephalitis is crazy. Aladdin - Worthy of being thought of as a Disney classic? What Dreams May Come - Interesting ideas but kind of a hot mess. E-mail us at [email protected], follow us on Twitter and Instagram , like us on facebook at , and subscribe/write a review on iTunes!

Episode 142 - Absence Makes the Heart Grow What?! Hannah has moved on to bigger and better... Chicago. Making this our first long distance episode! We got into the spirit of things and watched 4 movies about long distance relationships. /episode/index/show/flickyeah/id/10565453

Episode 141 - Come and Knock on Our Door 06/15/2019

Episode 141 - Come and Knock on Our Door A lot is changing in our lives! Hannah is temporarily living with Anne before moving to Chicago so this episode is full of movies featuring roommates -- mostly really really bad roommates. But first we kick things off with Mindy Kaling's latest (ha) project. Enjoy! IN THEATERS Late Night - Even if it didn't quite meet our expectations, we still want you to see it. THEME MOVIES Single White Female - So fun! Reality Bites - So '90s! You, Me and Dupree - the lack of Oxford comma is one more reason to hate this movie. Step Brothers - It's all relative.

Episode 140 - Cast of Thrones If you are not living under a rock, and you are not Hannah, then you know that today is a very big day. We decided to go über topical with this month's episode and watch 4 movies starring some actors from Game of Thrones. No spoilers, don't worry - Hannah wouldn't know what I was talking about anyway. IN THEATERS - Where's the colon????? THEME MOVIES () - Warm and nice and thoughtful. () - Maybe Pompeii was a fluke and he CAN act? () - You know nothing, Rotten Tomatoes. () - He may not be bright, or good at acting, but he sure has SOMETHING.

Episode 138 - 3 Head Bonks, a Wish, and a Kiss 03/15/2019

Episode 138 - 3 Head Bonks, a Wish, and a Kiss THEME MOVIES Liar Liar - Jim Carrey's crazy physical comedy is not enough to save this one. Just My Luck - Probably best to listen to Anne's opinion over Hannah's. I Feel Pretty - It's worth a try. Honestly. What Men Want - Okurrrr???? Isn't it Romantic - It's missing an ineffable quality.

Episode 135 - I Will Survive For episode 135, we watched a handful of movies where people need to fight to survive. Not intentionally part of the theme but still fitting, we start with Boy Erased, Garrard Conley's true story of growing up gay in Arkansas and attending conversion therapy. IN THEATERS Boy Erased - An evocative and moving film. THEME MOVIES Flight of the Phoenix - We hope the original is better. Into the White - Slow start but decent second half.
