"You think I'm gorgeous, you want to kiss me..."

We put the cuffs on our Crime Corner July series and throw away the key with our episode all about 2000's "Miss Congeniality"!

Sandy B. is on fire in this one, anyone could attest to that. Accompanying her are heavy hitters like Candice Bergen, William Shatner, and of course the effervescent Michael Caine bring a level of panache. And lest we forget, a stunningly hot Benjamin Bratt rounds out the cast with his smarminess.

A classic early 2000's comedy, this one pulls all the right strings in balancing comedy and action, while bringing a little bit of that down-home goodness that only Sandra Bullock can bring to the table. But of course, it goes without saying this movie's blatant sexism and objectification of women is on full display and is a product of its time.

Despite the flaws, this movie is enjoyable mostly in part to the dynamic and fun cast. This movie also holds a special place in Joe's heart for a number of awe-worthy reasons!

Stay tuned for our next series where we explore sports movies, literally kicking off with a Justin pick: "Varsity Blues"!

"Mother of God."

Expecting 1987's "Robocop?" Well guess again, muchachos. We're hitting the highway with the comedy cult classic from 2002, Broken Lizard's "Super Troopers."

A deeply nostalgic cut from Justin's teenage years that surprisingly (but also not so surprisingly) did not hit the mark with Joe. Call it differing tastes, or simply chalk it up to a movie comedy that's nearing 20 years old showing its age. Irregardless, this movie still slaps and hits for the most part, with its deceivingly straightforward plot, but heavily peppered in with some classic early-2000's raunch and physical comedy.

Following up our Crime Corner July, faux law enforcement mini series will be the 2000 action comedy starring Uncultured Universe fav Sandra Bullock, "Miss Congeniality!"

"Go drink a bottle of yourself."

Rounding out the SNL mini series with the late 90's Catholic school "teen" comedy, "Superstar," starring Molly Shannon as the zany yet earnest Mary Katherine Gallagher.

Again, the SNL studios crew managed to extrapolate and bring a small screen character and world to life with this movie, and with classic 90's gusto. Justin and Joe discuss the unique comedy of Molly Shannon and Will Ferrell, the wonderfully villainous nature of Elaine Hendrix's Evian, and this movie's insane one-liners ("Mary Magdelicious!")

Join us in July where we take an interesting turn towards two cop movies that could not be any more different, starting with 1987's "Robocop."

""Party time. Excellent."

We're back on our movie bullshit, coming at you with the early 90's grunge-slacker-comedy classic "Wayne's World" - schwing!

During the month of June, we'll be taking a look at movies that are based on Saturday Night Live sketches. This one of course takes the cake as the highest grossing film based on an SNL skit, and obviously it makes sense. This movie is full of great gags, memorable quotes, and a brand of comedy Joe & Justin clock as "innocently Canadian."

Be sure to come back later this month for the Joe pick, "Superstar" starring Molly Shannon & Will Ferrell!

It's a recap episode, everybody!

After 40+ episodes, why not take a look back in the past? If you've been in the Uncultured circle for a bit, you know that we make a lot of silly musical accompaniments to add a little spice to our episodes. From vibe-y lo-fi movie trailers, to off-the-wall intros for a game, we do it all in-house and we wanted to shine a little light on some of our favorites.

We take a look at a few highlights ranging from our sea shanty inspired song for our "Muppet Treasure Island" episode, to a rocking version of the iconic motif from "Interstellar." Listen to see where the inspiration stemmed from, a little of the recording process, and the hilarity surround some of the absurd concepts.

Stay tuned for our next mini-series in June where we'll look at movies based off of famous SNL skits. Starting off with a Justin pick, we'll embody the spirit of peak early 90's cinema: "Wayne's World!"

"If you think about it, any box could have vibrators in it."

We've finally cracked into the world of television! This is our initial foray into discussing our favorite tv shows with each other, and Joe mans the helm with his pick, the animated family sitcom Bob's Burgers.

Out the gate, we knew this would be a big undertaking, asking someone who's never seen the show (in this case Justin) to take a dive into a new show. Luckily, Bob's Burgers is not serialized, so Joe picked 4 episodes that he feels encapsulates the wacky and often endearing Belcher family.

We discuss episodes "Bob Fires the Kids", "Turkey in a Can", "V for Valentine-detta", and "The Plight Before Christmas." We look at what makes each of these episodes special, and drive at the heart of the show, which is the love and affection the Belcher's has for each other.

Stay tuned for our next episode, where we'll take a look back at some of our favorite musical moments from the back catalog of Uncultured Universe (it's a recap clip show y'all!)

"Give him your heart and he will give you his."

What a doozy of an episode, y'all. We welcomed back Ryan to sit behind the mic to discuss one of her beloved comfort-reads, the 2005 New York Times Bestseller "Marley & Me" as well as the 2008 film starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston.

We discuss our own experience with pets throughout our lives, what the book means to Ryan, and how much we loathe the movie. Bottom line: this book and movie will make you feel a lot of things.

This is our first "Book Club" episode, so be sure to stay tuned for more in the future!

"And this guy peed on it."

We wrap our mini series of looking at the iconic cinematographer, Roger Deakins, with the cult classic from 1998, "The Big Lebowski."

In accordance with the tenets of his duderness, this episode is chill AF. We talk about how non-traditionally this flick reached cult status, and how John Goodman's Walter Sobchak is the MVP. Of course, we discuss the lived-in warmth this movie has visually, and how obviously that is thanks in part to Deakins' masterful handiwork.

Stay tuned, because next month we're mixing things up a bit! We're bringing back co-host Ryan to discuss our first ever book-into-movie discussion, starting with "Marley & Me." Prepare your tear ducts.
