Borderlands

Episode 14 - Borderlands On this week’s car ride home, we discuss whether Borderlands is nothing more than a live-action play-through of a video game, and if either Tina or Stratis can be called a real gamer. We cover Stratis’ love of the first three minutes, before the film devolves into a First-Person Shooter. Grab your favorite BFG and let's hea…

Get busy Daddin', or get busy podcastin'. Carve your names into the eaves with the Dads as we attempt to break free from Frank Darabont's Steven King adaptation par excellence (featuring Morgan Freeman, Tim Robbins, and the voice of Mr. Krabs), 1994's THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION.Mike Dorval, Tooky Kavanagh, David Rabinow

Episode 14 - Bad Boys: Ride or Die On this week’s car ride home, we try to figure out what you can learn about a romantic relationship by pulling out your fingernails, then we see if Will Smith and Martin Lawrence can single-handedly take down the entire narco/government/police state. We both thought every actor in this movie was in their own separ…

Wait, Sidney Poitier directed this? Huh. Ok, then. Pryor. Wilder. Poitier. Every Dad is born having seen this movie. It combines everything Dads know about the criminal justice system with everything Dads know about the rodeo. It's why your Dad is neither a lawyer nor a cowboy. Get your chicken costumes out because we're watching the comedy smash o…

Episode 13 - Alien This week we ditch the car for a walk around the block as we delve into the classic sci-fi horror film Alien (1979). Along for this walk is Tina’s chihuahua, Frankie, who tries to eat too much grass. This was Tina’s first viewing of the classic film, although she has fond memories of Disney’s Great Movie Ride in Orlando, where Si…

This movie features an all-time complicated Dad (John Mahoney), and is helmed by the wunderkind (Cameron Crowe) that launched a string of Dad movies, so you can- Hang on; just give me a second? (Goes to window; opens it) "It's after 2:00 am; goodnight, Lloyd." (Closes window) Sorry. That kid is out here every night blasting his Peter Gabriel. Which…

RAIN MAN 58:45

24d ago58:45

58:45

An odd companion piece to last week's episode (THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) featuring another aspect of human existence (this week: ASD, last week: trans awareness) that in 2024 we have a vastly more informed cultural relationship to than we did at the time of these movies' respective releases. AND YET, I think it's fair to say that our deepened under…

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS 56:12

56:12

Hannibal Lecter has been in the news recently for reasons both dumb and stupid. But Anthony Hopkins' performance is anything but - the only thing scarier than this film is the prospect of another four years of [REDACTED]. Speaking of presidential trauma, Jodie Foster is equally incredible in this flick. Dads love Jodie Foster, because her movies ar…

MEN IN BLACK 53:17

America has had a lot of Dads. The good (Michael Landon, Barack Obama), the bad (Bill Cosby, Alec Baldwin), and the confusingly discordant (RIP Bob Saget/Danny Tanner). But we submit here that America's greatest Dad is almost never pictured with an actual son or daughter, yet nonetheless appears in many films as a distant-yet-deeply-caring-dispense…

THREE MEN AND A BABY 55:55

1M ago55:55

55:55

Inside each of us is three Dads... (I've made this joke already, but c'mon) You've got a Guttenberg - sensitive and clueless. You've got a Danson - dashing and egomaniacal. You've got a Selleck - rugged and protective. These Dads are engaged in a relentless battle for dominance within you. When you suddenly have a baby (and I sincerely hope none of…

2M ago52:06

52:06

GET TO THE CHOPPAH! (Dads love a good Arnold impression) The Dads turn on their thermal vision to dissect the film that launched the handshake that launched a thousand memes. Schwarzenegger. Weathers. Ventura. Van Damme (in absentia). And a bunch of vaguely problematic Dad stereotypes that somehow age like fine wine. It's John McTiernan's horror-ac…

HIDDEN FIGURES 53:09

Listen, the Dads make no secret of our political leanings: would we would prefer this country and its institutions be run by women of color? LIKELY. Is this a topical issue at the moment? PERHAPS. Are we feeling (cautiously) hopeful right now? MAYBE. Did we want to honor this unprecedented time in American history by talking about a film wherein Bl…

Inside every one of us are two Dads, fighting for supremacy. One looks like Jack Cates. One looks like Reggie Hammond. Do I have to tell you which one to listen to? The Dads carefully dissect the not-at-all problematic and hugely influential "buddy" cop comedy from 1982 (featuring the breakout performance from Eddie Murphy), Walter Hill's 48 HOURS.…

Sometimes - maybe most of the time? - we don't fully appreciate our Dads until we've had a chance to reflect on them. Their tiny brilliances, their hidden diamond facets behind their seemingly-workaday veneer...these can sometimes go unremarked upon until one day you look up and realize OH SHIT MY DAD IS THE BEST COMEDY OF THE 80S. Am I conflating …

1:01:21

True story: My Dad purchased a bunch of tvs from an electronics store. He was informed that he would receive a discount if he signed up for their in-house credit card. So he (of course) proceeded to do so under a fake name because everyone knows that LAWS DO NOT APPLY TO DADS. When asked for his name for the card he said: "Bond. Fenimore Bond." I t…

KRAMER VS. KRAMER 1:00:12

3M ago1:00:12

1:00:12

How rare is it for a movie to serve as a primer on how to both BE and NOT BE a Dad? This film is the "Scared Straight" of Dad movies. Also Ted Kramer is a lousy person who is capable of great things. Or a great person who does a lot of lousy things. Is it any wonder that Dustin Hoffman won an Oscar? Meryl Streep, Jane Alexander, and Justin Henry al…

Episode 3 - Inside Out 2 On this week’s car ride home, we explain how Inside Out 2 isn’t really a kid’s movie, and Stratis wants to know if an animated film can get the Oscar for best picture.

THE KING OF KONG: A FISTFUL OF QUARTERS 56:25

3M ago56:25

56:25

Perhaps we don't touch on the dark side of Dads often enough. But ask anyone who's even been, had, or known a Dad and they'll tell you it's there. The obsessiveness, the pettiness, the gatekeeping... it's all there. Perhaps (as this podcast occasionally posits) the real merit of a Dad comes from our ability to recognize and (hopefully) evolve into …

Forget the podcast, Ricky. Give 'em the heater. Lotsa Dad types in this one: Corbin Bernsen's asshole Dad, Chelcie Ross' Christian Dad (with a hidden stash of Hustlers), Tom Berenger's seemingly- cool-but-oh-wait-actually-kind-of-sad Dad, and James Gammon's tough love Dad. Plus you got a Sheen (Dads LOVE Sheens!) AND a Haysbert (the voice of Allsta…

Happy Upcoming Father's Day! In honor of the holiday, and in the (very Dad) spirit of making amends for mistakes made years prior, we present this VERY Dad-centric original vision of the 1980 sequel to SUPERMAN: THE MOTION PICTURE. For reasons (see: capitalism), the original theatrical release was credited to Richard Lester after Richard Donner (or…

THE MALTESE FALCON 55:13

4M ago55:13

55:13

Dads love two things: MacGuffins and culturally irrelevant impressions. This film gives our Dads the chance to enjoy the ur-MacGuffin while dusting off our best Bogey (or even our Peter Lorre!) for the eyerolled "amusement" of our progeny. Also, it's one of the greatest movies ever mad yada yada yada. This week: John Huston's 1941 hard-boiled noir-…

BLOODSPORT 1:01:14

4M ago1:01:14

1:01:14

Every Dad knows: you gotta take out the trash. What every Dad comes to learn: done correctly, taking out the trash is a vacation. A brief respite from the demands of family interaction, a chance to ever-so-briefly immerse oneself in a larger world. Trash has value: spiritual and emotional value. BLOODSPORT is trash. It is eminently disposable and p…

BOOGIE NIGHTS 1:02:15

4M ago1:02:15

1:02:15

Discussion of this magnificent film inspired Dad Mike to say: "I'm going full Harrison Butker on The Girthmaster." I can't think of a stronger endorsement to listen to a deep Porn Dad discussion of Paul Thomas Anderson's 1997 masterpiece BOOGIE NIGHTS.

This may no longer be your Dad's favorite movie, but it's definitely your Dad's favorite Simpsons joke.

OCEAN'S ELEVEN 54:18

Perhaps the most Dad-spirational movie of all time, this movie features beautiful people doing cool stuff in a fantasy city. Every Dad sees himself in a cool suit talking the racket, or tugging on our bucket hats at the track, ready for one big score. But the truth is: most of us are Julia Roberts: blissfully unaware of the danger at the edges of o…

Leslie Neilsen is your dad's favorite actor, and probably his second favorite actor as well. Leslie Neilsen carried a handheld fart sound machine wherever he went. Leslie Neilsen's gravestone reads "Let 'er rip". Leslie Neilsen is the Chuck Norris of Dad humor, except he actually did all the stuff that we celebrate him for. THE NAKED GUN: FROM THE …

This movie needs a Dad! But I guess if it had one, it wouldn't really be a Batman, would it? Aren't most Tim Burton movies about missing grown ups in one way or another? He's got some stuff to work through, but then again, don't we all? Bruce Wayne certainly does; so does his counterpart Jack Napier/Joker in this astoundingly awkward mash-up of ide…

Look! Up in the sky! It's our childhood! If you read comics as a kid, you read some Superman. And, love him or hate him, you knew who Superman was, and, secretly, you probably wished the people around you could be a little more like him. Granted, it's easier to have an unbendable moral code if you don't need to eat and nothing can ever hurt you, bu…

Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear are the yin/yang of Dad Energy. Kermit: Moral. Respected. The clear leader. Perhaps a tad dorky, but effective. If you saw Kermit wearing cargo pants, you would not be surprised. A collaborator, but with a vision. He is what all Dads aspire to be. Fozzie: Relentlessly mocked, justifiably so. His laughs come from pity…

Also if you can get every classic Warner Brothers and Disney cartoon character in there as well...Dads eat that s*** up. That's why we're chowing down this week on (IMO) Robert Zemeckis' greatest achievement, 1988's WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT.…

We talk a lot of Spielberg here at TDM, because Steven makes a lot of movies both for and about Dads. BRIDGE OF SPIES might be the ultimate "only Dads will watch this movie" movie.

But to be fair, President Indiana Jones (I …

Been thinking a lot this week about MADAME WEB, which (spoiler alert!) isn't a good movie, but seems to double-suffer from the background radiation of institutional misogyny. MADAME WEB isn't your enemy, fellow nerds - it's the (male-dominated) studio that serves it to us, undercooked and leaking on the plate. You know what I didn't understand in 1…

When your number's up, your number's up. Seems like a real Dad thing to say. But deep in our Dad Hearts, we fear the void. We fear the loss of control, the powerlessness, the inability to care for those we love. Sam Wheat - while not a Dad - is EveryDad. Cue the Righteous Brothers: it's time for Jerry Zucker's 1990 megahit GHOST.…

It's hard to make a movie. It's even harder to make a movie that accurately depicts a specific place and set of characters. That said, if you DO make a movie in which you hope to portray a particular place and people, it's perhaps important to get actors who sound like they're from that particular place and time. That said - this movie is extremely…
