The Summer of the (MTV) Bangers begins on our new episode! THE FUGITIVE won MTV Movie Awards for Best Action Sequence and Best On-Screen Duo but... Tommy Lee Jones wasn't too impressed.

Early on the long road to playing Spider-Man's Aunt May, Marisa Tomei won the MTV Movie Award for Breakthrough Performance of 1992. All she had to do? Steal a movie from Joe Pesci. Our MY COUSIN VINNY episode is out!

We don't need The Schumacher Cut to know his first Batman movie should've won every MTV Movie Award it was nominated for... even in categories where it was competing against itself. The Summer of (MTV) Bangers continues with our BATMAN FOREVER episode!

America's in the shitter, so now's a good time to remember a time when we could kind of sort of buy that our country would actually be able to successfully lead the world against an alien invasion. Our INDEPENDENCE DAY episode is out!

Folks. ARMAGEDDON is part of the Criterion Collection. Can we stop pretending it's not a masterpiece? Also, it won two MTV Movie Awards. New episode out now!

One movie single-handedly put nannies all over the nation in the unemployment line. The same movie earned Rebecca De Mornay an MTV Movie Award for Best Villain. Our THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE episode is out!

Start the weekend by listening to us talk about a movie that launched us into the 2000s - while also launching decades of memes, parodies, and copycats. Our THE MATRIX episode is out now!
