You Watched It Wrong

Yes, the Oscars happened two months ago, but listen: this episode has got some real goodies in it. We cover Best Supporting Actor, a bunch of the Best Song nominees, and wrap up with the screenplay awards. You'll hear extended riffs on Dick Cheney biopic Vice and Melissa McCarthy starrer Can You Ever Forgive Me? (you do not want to miss Wade's take). Plus, this episode sets up Part 3, which is even better (seriously). We will finish what we start!!!

Before you watch Avengers: Endgame, listen to our middle game! In part 2 of Wade and Siggy's epic 3-part review of the entire MCU, they each give their Top 3 and Bottom 3 in these astounding categories:

• Non-superhero good guys!
• Non-supervillain bad guys!
• Action scenes!
• Non-action scenes!

 (Note: this episode was recorded prior to the release of Captain Marvel.)

Just in time! Wade and Siggy can tell that you have finally digested the 2019 Oscars and are finally ready to listen to their in-depth conversation. That's why Part 1 is dropping now. It's not because they recorded a 9-hour conversation and it's taken extra long to edit. Or is it? Only one way to find out, dear listeners, and that's to join us as we refresh your fading memories and find out whether You Awarded It Wrong.

(From 51:50 - 1:05:30, a Nested Bonus! as Wade and Siggy discuss at length Best Sound Editing nominee, A Quiet Place.)

 

Siggy takes a turn at intonating! All the King's Men! Movies quoting other movies! More You Heard That Right! Come for the trivia, stay for Wade's sparkling written copy! With special guests Todd and Hugh.

The non-trivial amount of trivia resumes as Wade challenges Siggy, and special guests Todd and Hugh, to identify songs written for movie soundtracks.

Special guests Todd Carney and Hugh Jasper join Wade and Siggy for another round of movie trivia in a recording session so monstrous, it had to be split up like the Triforce.

Wade and Siggy discuss (almost!) the entire MCU at length, breadth, and depth, each giving their Top 3 and Bottom 3 choices in a number of categories: Movie, Superhero, and Supervillain.

(Recorded in May 2018 -- it's a long story -- so discussion doesn't consider Ant Man and the Wasp... but c'mon, that was a pretty middle-of-the-pack movie, and we're not giving our Middle 3!) 

For once, we have an episode that's shorter than the movie! Of course, we're all shorter than Godzilla... but what's about Godzilla's shin? Wade and Siggy will spit it like atomic fire as they stomp their way through Toho's 2016 reboot of the classic kaiju franchise.

In a change-of-pace episode, Wade concocts a very specific game show for his brother (and special guest) Todd Carney; then Wade, Todd, and Siggy discuss their first memories of "badassness" (with a long digression into Die Hard, inadvertently returning us to our usual format!).

Who wants to talk more about Ben-Hur? Let's assume you do! Wade and Siggy discuss the latest attempt to update an enduring classic, and in the process answer the question, "How is the 2016 version like Ben-Hur's view from his chariot?" (Answer: It's for horses' asses.)
