    or: The Estuary Between Order and Chaos

    or: That Bombay Talkie Theme Slaps!

    All aboard as The Dudes don their finest suits, hop on The Darjeeling Limited, and delve into one of Wes Anderson’s most contentious films to date. Everyone knows this is Wes Anderson’s worst movie, what this review presupposes is …maybe it isn’t?

  • #74 – CIVIL WAR: There Will Be Blood vs. No Country for Old Men (Rebroadcast)
    May 21 2020

    or: I Have the Solution to Make Daniel Day-Lewis Happy Again

    Peterson Hill returns to The War Bunker to help The Dudes decide a victor in the toughest Civil War Showdown to date! It’s a brutal no-holds-barred brawl that’s been a decade in the making. In one corner, we have There Will Be Blood’s Daniel Plainview armed only with a verbal venom and a barbaric bowling pin. In the other corner, No Country For Old Men’s Anton Chigurh wielding a killer haircut and an oxygen tank… for emphysema or somethin’. Two films enter but only can be named the essentialiest motion picture of 2007 (and perhaps the entire 21st century). Sit back and sip on a stellar stout while Chris, Jacob, and Peterson go to epic lengths to survive this merciless movie matchup.

  • #92 – There Will Be Blood - The Magnificent Andersons #09
    May 14 2020

    or: Get Them All Liquored Up And Take Them To The Peach Tree Dance

    The Dudes brew up some healthy competition within themselves to revisit Paul Thomas Anderson’s 2007 oil-drenched epic, There Will be Blood. They wield their best (read: horrible) Daniel Plainview impressions to tackle this tale of early 20th century individualism set against the building blocks of America – capitalism and religion. On this rewatch, do they discover that Daniel Day-Lewis actually turns in a weak and overwrought performance? (No.) Does PTA’s world view further isolate Jake from fully embracing his idiosyncratic visions? (🤷‍♀️) Does Peterson gush over this epic like a geyser of crude bursting from the ocean of oil under our feet? (Naturally.)

    Apr 30 2020

    or: If You’re Not Against Me Don’t Cross This Line.

    The Dudes chart a course through unprotected waters and take a dive into Wes Anderson’s seafaring adventure-comedy, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Secure your sidearms. Slide into your speedos and red knit caps. And board our own submersible boat as we set out to slay this white whale Jaguar Shark.

    We discuss (and debate) the merits of Owen Wilson’s Kentucky accent Bill Murray’s impressive run of early 2000s performances… and maybe even break out in a subtle dance to the dulcet tones of Mark Mothersbaugh’s music, well, some of us.
