  • Episode 36: Runaway and Bottom 5 Mustaches
    Sep 15 2024

    For this episode, things get hairy... (literally?) with Jay hurling Mike into the far-flung future of... 1991? By reviewing the Tom Selleck/Michael Crichton sci-fi team-up that is 1982's "Runaway," the guys embark on a thoughtful look back (and forward), at one point discussing how technology was predicted to have evolved and how it actually evolved. But before things get too heady, they quickly return to their usual foolishness, comparing their choices for bottom five mustaches in honor of the iconic soup-strainer Tom Selleck is best-known for. And if a list of 10 bad cinematic cookie-dusters isn't enough, Mike and Jay play an epic game of Kick Two, Pick Two that pits four famous dental drapes against one another, with only two allowed to survive on the upper lip of film history. Will Kurt Russell's "Tombstone" mouth mane make the cut? Listen now to find out!

  • Episode 35: From Justin to Kelly and Bottom 5 Parties
    Sep 1 2024

    As Filmjitsu Summer comes to an end, Mike delivers to Jay the cinematic C-4 explosive that is 2003's "From Justin to Kelly" starring Kelly Clarkson, thankfully in her first - and only - lead acting role. Stepping from the ashes of his lost summer watching horrendous dreck, Jay dutifully reviews this "musical romantic comedy" and manages to say some nice things, which is a bit like living through a blitzkrieg and complimenting the enemy for pretty-colored fireballs. Following the review, Mike and Jay offer their bottom five parties from movies and then play a popstar-filled game of Kick-Two, Pick-Two during which Jay is faced with one the most existential struggles of his life. Will he cast his beloved Madonna into the Forbidden Zone deleting her from history and future for all? Listen to find out that, and also what Jay has lying in wait for Mike's viewing displeasure on the next episode!

    Aug 18 2024

    In this special episode of Filmjitsu, Jay and Mike record from the parking lot of the cinema after watching Lee Isaac Chung's "Twisters," a sequel of sorts to the much-loved popcorn flick, 1996's "Twister."

The guys answer this from the confines of a 100° car and are joined by a special guest during their review! After that. grab onto something and get ready for a bumpy ride into a vortex of personal shame as your intrepid cinematic dualists return to the studio with their Bottom 5 Guilty Pleasures: personal favorite movies that are typically viewed as awful by critics and audiences alike. Finally, the guys tear through a guilt-ridden game of Kick-Two, Pick-Two before Mike unveils the next film Jay will have to suffer through. We're talking imminent rue-age!
