Hoppers | Top 5 Eco-Friendly Movies | CinemaJaw 738

Reviewed: Hoppers Top 5: Eco-Friendly Movies Monthly Theme: Maggie Gyllenhaal Let our powers combine! Top 5s! Reviews! Trivia! Monthly Themes! And The Fishtank!! GO CINEMAJAW! By your powers combine, I am – The GREATEST MOVIES PODCAST EVER!!!! That’s taken directly from my CinemaJaw/Captain Planet crossover fanfic. And lemme tell ya dude, I so wish they remade Captain Planet to include Matt, Ryan and I. We’re probably never going to have that happen (at least canonically). But we CAN have an episode of CinemaJaw about the environment! That’s right, I’ve done it again: I made a cringe write up for the show description that has very little to do with the show’s content. And the tie in this time is HOPPERS. We all reviewed the new Pixar movie Hoppers, which is about saving and protecting the environment… and beavers. And, given this premise, we decided to do a top 5 on “Eco-Friendly” movies. Think all things environment. We’re going green you guys. This is a good one. A lot of fun discussion. I know you’re going to love it. I love you all, -KP

How To Make a Killing | Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die | Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie | Amy Landecker | CinemaJaw 737

Reviewed: How To Make a Killing, Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, Nirvana The Band The Show The Movie Guest: Amy Landecker Monthly Theme: Margot Robbie Don’t even lie to me Jawheads – if you’re over 28, you’ve had an emotional collapse that lead you to do things you would have never done otherwise. DON’T even lie TO ME. I’ve had, like, 7 by now. And what better way is there to forgive yourself for the last time you crashed out than to watch a movie that involves somebody else crashing out! And let me tell ya, we’ve got a good recommendation for ya: For Worse – the new film written by, directed by, and starring Amy Landecker. She plays a mom that joins an acting class after getting a divorce, and it’s full of laughs and charm. We also have a special peak behind the curtain on this one, because we got the chance to interview Amy herself! That’s right, the auteur behind For Worse is with us in this episode you guys. This is NOT a DRILL. But that’s not all this week. Would you believe it that we even had the time to cram in a Review-O-Rama? We’ve got 3 reviews coming at ya’ this week. Glen Powell’s back and beautiful in How To Make a Killing, about an ultra rich family being the absolute worst people (shocker). So Glen goes on a revenge spree killing said ultra rich family. We also have the return of Sam Rockwell with Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die. A cheeky little flick that I can only describe as “Groundhog’s Day except there’s an urgent and pressing crisis that requires prudent action… and Sam -goddamn- Rockwell.” And finally, we top our Review-O-Rama off with the best of the best out of our neighbors to the north with: Nirvana The Band The Show The Movie. Yes… that is the title. We go over it and it makes more sense than it seems I PROMISE. This episode is bonkers dude. There’s so much going on in it and all of it is good. I had an ear-to-ear grin the whole show and I just know you all will too. I love you all, -KP

“Wuthering Heights”, Iron Lung | Top 5 Cross-Class Love Stories | CinemaJaw 736

Reviewed: “Wurthering Heights”, Iron Lung Top 5: Cross-Class Love Stories Monthly Theme: Margot Robbie Get ready to smash that like button and also smash a handsome romantic period dude who looks like Jacob Elordi. Because boy-oh-boy do we have a big episode for you guys today! We’re starting the show off with our review of the new “Furthering Heights” directed by Emerald Fennell. The quotations are important, because this is loosely based upon the novel by Emily Brontë. And, if you have seen any of the trailers for this movie, it. Is. STEAMY.  And we’ve also got a review of the new Markiplier movie (yes, you read that correctly; the YouTuber Markiplier actually and for real made a feature film), Iron Lung. We also talk a little bit about the making of this film, because the fact that this movie got made and released at all is, honestly, pretty nuts.  And, we’ve also got a good top 5 list too! We’re doing our top 5 Cross-Class Love Stories. So get poor. Or get rich, even though that’s unlikely in this economy. And get READY. Because it’s a good one you guys! I love you all, -KP

Review-O-Rama! Send Help, Whistle, Crime 101, Secret Mall Apartment | CinemaJaw 735

Reviewed: Send Help, Secret Mall Apartment, Crime 101, Whistle Roll Film Draft: Margot Robbie, Rachel McAdams, Sam Raimi, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Nick Frost Monthly Theme: Margot Robbie Roll for initiative Jawheads! We’ve got a new game this week that we’re excited to play on the show. And don’t worry – it is related to our movies! We’re calling it “Roll Film” and it’s a level up from the format we would use when we pulled director drafts. We’ll explain it on the show, but it’s a good time that we know you’re going to like! And, what a good week to introduce our fun little new game,. We’ve got a lot of things to pull our drafts from with our REVIEW-O-RAMA and a lot of Hollywood stars. And for our Review-O-Rama, we start off with a big one: Sam Raimi. He’s got a new film called Send Help coming out about two coworkers that end up stranded on an island together. We also tap into the new documentary Secret Mall Apartment which is about… well… a secret apartment in a mall. We also checked in with Crime 101 with none other than the Hulk himself, Mark Ruffalo. And, to close things out, we even checked out Whistle – a horror film where blowing the whistle… could get ya got my friends. This is a good one! I really do think you’re going to like the game, and I KNOW you’re going to like the reviews! I love you all, -KP

The Wrecking Crew, Shelter | Top List 5 Big Dumb, but Always Fun Action movies| CinemaJaw 734

Reviewed: The Wrecking Crew, Shelter Top 5: Dumb, But Fun Action Movies Monthly Theme: Ben Affleck I wrote a lot for this week’s episode description, but I quickly realized it was all plagiarized from what I wrote on the Top 5 Badasses episode. It had similar jokes about action movies as what I originally wrote. Something about walking in slow motion with an explosion in the background is where my mind oft goes. But that’s because it’s f***ing cool!!! And you know what else is f***ing cool? Our Top 5 this week, the Top 5 Dumb, But Fun Action Movies. We’re talking guns. We’re talking car chases. We’re talking people more physically fit than I will ever be beating the stuffing out of each other. And you better believe we’re having a real fun time talking about it. And that’s because we reviewed The Wrecking Crew this week. The newest entry in dumb but fun classics. It stars Jason Momoa, and Dave Bautista, is set in Hawaii, and has a lot of wonton violence. We’ve also got a briefer review for you all at the backend. Ryan caught Shelter, the new Jason Statham flick – and with a star like Statham behind it, you know it’s another dumb action flick… and we love that. It’s high octane insanity on this week’s jaw everybody. Get ready. Get tough. And get dumb y’all. I love you all, -KP
