All in Action
This week, we watch the first film in the Three Flavors Cornetto trilogy and the international smash hit that instantly put Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg on the map. In one hand you have all the zombie tropes you’ve ever seen, and in the other hand you have the best British comedy of the era . Smash your hands together? Shaun of the Dead (2004), directed by Edgar Wright.
Part 2
This week, we watch the legendary Italian film makers final film. Clocking in at nearly 4 hours long (originally meant to be 6 hours), this film contains some of the most graphic content we’ve seen so far on the list. While we would find it hard to recommend to most people, its impossible to not be impressed by the cinematography, sets, and epic period piece details. Once Upon A Time In America (1984), directed by Sergio Leone.
This week, we watch yet another Hitchcock film, following closely ahead of Vertigo. This film is famous for influencing the James Bond films, especially the ridiculous action, casual sex, and iconic clothing. Sean Connery might owe everything to Cary Grant. North By Northwest (1959), directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
PART 2!
This week, we watch possibly the best ensemble cast ever to be put to film. Drama, suspense, comedy, horror…what can’t you say about a classic like this? We all watched it for the first time, and we couldn’t recommend it enough to war movie fans. Das Boot (1981), directed by Wolfgang Petersen.

This week, we watch what many consider to be the best Anime of all time. Masterfully animated and ultra-violent, this film remains unmatched in its detail, style and scope. The influence on other animated films as well as live action films of this genre cannot be understated. Akira (1988), directed by Katsuhiro Otomo.
PART 3
This week, we continue doing something we haven’t done before! Since Return of the Jedi is number 73 on the list, and TC hasn’t seen any of the original Star Wars trilogy, we are going through these movies in the order they are meant to be watched. This week we are on to Episode 6, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, directed by Richard Marquand and written by George Lucas and Lawrence Kasdan.

This week, we watch one of the scariest movies we've ever seen. This film depicts the real life tragedy of the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, and does it almost too convincingly. A very well made movie that we'd be hard pressed to recommend due to how upsetting it is, but if you can tolerate violence (or you think you can), this one is worth a watch. Hotel Mumbai (2018), directed by Anthony Maras.
This week, we watch Tarantino’s first film. Cool music, cool suits, over the top violence, and non-linear story telling - this movie created a genre with a tiny budget, defined a decade of film and inspired independent artists across the world to this day. Reservoir Dogs (1992), directed by Quentin Tarantino.
This week, we continue talking about Braveheart, and dive into the commentary track with Mel Gibson himself. Is it worth listening to? Only if you’d like to imagine what Mel looks like while he quietly watches himself in a kilt. Braveheart (1995), directed by Mel Gibson.
This week, we watch Mel Gibson’s first foray into period-piece gore. He wins best picture / director as he massacres history alongside fictional Scotsmen. Is the story true? Who cares! Lets watch some horses eat ****!! Braveheart (1995), directed by Mel Gibson.
