Episode 677: April's ReFlicktions Brew

It's been a while but finally, the door has been closed on 2024 with last week's Deucie Awards (congrats to all the winners!) and Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are here with their first batch of post-Deucie ReFlicktions, plus the first Top Five of the Year list!

Off the top of the show, Miss Independent and The Pride of Tifton Garrison Ryfun, along with hosts Mikey and d$, assign foreign, aka InternationEARL, movies to the Good Doctor for watching and reviewing in an upcoming episode.

Then, the list of films seen over the last 7 or 8 weeks... d$ sees classic Warren Beatty... Dr Earl takes on controversial Netflix... and Mikey finds rare Kevin Smith.  Plus, a longer talk on the good and bad of Mickey17... love for Soderbergh... not love for the latest Chris Pratt... docs about Clue, Kaufman (Andy, not Jen), and murderous daughters... prescient pope stuff... Reggie Miller vs Spike Lee... Jack Black successfully always being Jack Black... and much love for the latest Michael B Jordan joint.

Then, the first Top Five of 2025!

Episode 565: 2022 Surprise and Delights

 Each year, there are the movies that perhaps are not on Mikey's, Dave's, or #TwitterlessDrEarl's top fives or top tens, but they are still movies that surprised everyone... and delighted everyone... unexpected pleasant moviegoing experiences if you will.  

And every year, Friend of the Show, Miss Independent Jeremy Burgess joins up for the episode, giving his own surprises and delights.

First up, Burgess is assigned his annual Burgentine's Day -- sure, it's early, but Home Goods had V-Day stuff up before Christmas, so we feel okay about this. 

Then, the guys jump right into their Top 5 films that they went into unsure about, perhaps with little to no expectations... and came out of surprised at how delighted they found the movies... and delighted at the surprise of how delightful it was. Or something. 

And they even dig a little into Oscar odds... some newer horror gets lots of love on the show... a little hot Brendan Fraser talk... some Austin Butler chatter... Michael's Baygasm... and even get a little Shakespearean. Sort of.

And a "Don't Die" update!!
