Episode 679: The Meanest Movie Moms

 It's a tradition around the Deucecast Movie Show that we always want to honor our moms on Mother's Day... and sometimes that means showing the world how lucky we are that our Moms are NOT the moms in movies.

This week on the show, Friend of the Show, Mr Independent himself Jeremy Burgess, joins d$, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl to talk all about the worst, meanest, sometimes most murderous and villainous moms in all the movies.  From creatures from space to cheerleader moms to grifting moms to abusive moms and more.

Plus, Burgess gives his take on not just small indie films to watch for, but some mainstream films that everyone should see. Then, a rousing game of Part 3 Rotten Tomatoes.

And, likely the first mention of Club Shay Shay on the podcast ever.

Episode 479: Bad Movie Moms

It's Mother's Day and Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl want to give a nod to their own moms and those moms out there we love. And what better way to honor those moms than to look at the movies... and see which moms to totally avoid.

First, a Mother (F***) themed version of The Rotten Tomatoes Game, taking on the films of the Mother dude himself.

Then, a look at the worst moms in movies, from Shirly MacLaine to Ally Sheedy to telekinesis to Goonies to even some animated bad Disney matriarchs. 

A quick discussion on the Oscars that just happened, and finally, #TwitterlessDrEarl gives his take on this year's SpirituEarl films -- Mary, Joseph, some musical numbers, and whatever crap Burgess tossed up.
