This week we watched 2015's Playing It Cool aka The Marvel Off-Time Hangout Movie. Captain America has to write a romcom script for The Falcon. Cap is in love with a woman, but she's engaged to Mr. Fantastic. Caps best friend in this universe is Venom for some reason (along with Peter Parker's teacher and Legion's bud Lenny). And somehow, with all this talent... it's about as romantic as an iPod commercial.

[S2E5] Something Borrowed

Just in time for the most upsetting holiday of the year, Bronwyn and Jourdain decided to tackle their most-requested film: 2011's Something Borrowed. It's a romcom that hinges on the idea that blonde women oppress brunette women and that it's...

Just in time for the most upsetting holiday of the year, Bronwyn and Jourdain decided to tackle their most-requested film: 2011's Something Borrowed. It's a romcom that hinges on the idea that blonde women oppress brunette women and that it's justifiable to steal a blonde woman's fiancé as reparations! Yes! Seriously! This is one of the few cases where we totally understand why everyone hates this movie. You guys were right.

[S2E4] Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (with Kyle Kallgren)

Tina Fey gets her groove back... in a war zone.

Joined again by Kyle Kallgren, we looked into Tina Fey's most misbegotten starring vehicle to date. It's a film all about how war is hot and sexy and fun and everyone is white.

[S2E3] Bride Wars

We always loved you, Anne Hathaway!

This week, it's a weird case. We took a deep dive into 2009's Bride Wars and how it's bad... but not as bad as everyone says it is.

[S2E2] The Layover

William H. Macy made a movie. It was bad.

William H. Macy's The Layover is possibly the worst film we've ever discussed on the show.

[S2E1] GOOD ROMANCE: The Big Sick

It's sweet and we like it. So there!

We decided to kick off 2018 by doing a good romance for once! This week we gushed about 2017's The Big Sick, a great romcom made by one of the cutest married couples in the entire world.

[S1E21] Sweet Home Alabama

A Confederate love story?

This week we revisited an old favorite that didn't age well. It's 2002's Sweet Home Alabama, a romantic comedy that is... obsessed with the Confederacy and explosives.

[S1E19] The Decoy Bride

Don't feel bad if you've never heard of it.

This week Bronwyn and Jourdain investigate the curious case of 2011's The Decoy Bride, a film with great actors that's so baffling bad that we're surprised it even exists.
