For good behavior, my fifth grade class was awarded with a monthly movie. Somewhere in there, Watership Down made the cut. It’s a weird, whacked-out animated film that crawled into my nightmares for several weeks after. As a...ahem..children’s movie, this sum’bitch tackles some heavy subjects: Death, forced labor, extinction, deforestation, etc. Bunnies are ripping each other’s throats out, people! My wife and I have a son on the way, and he will NOT be watching this movie. At least ’till he’s thirty, anyway. So, yeah, the boys and I booze it up and watch Watership Down. Discussion follows. And probably therapy after that. We drink a little bubbly, rose, and Scotch for my upcoming ebook, which will pair wine (and a little whiskey) with movies.

It's the fifth inning of our baseball series! This week, we tackle an 80s raunch comedy: Major League. It has an all-star cast, including many actors at the beginning of long careers. We'll pair this minor classic with some refreshing Gewürztraminer. (Pronounce it: Guh-VERZ-truh-meen-er. Or: Guh-VERZ-tram-un-er. To read my full review of the film, click here!

For this Movie Mailbag Monday, we hear the very first movies Tay and Trav ever saw in theaters. What made a big impression them when they were young and weird? Sean and I had such a good discussion about this, I had to ask them, as well. Next up, the arm wrestling movie to end them all!

Before we kick off our Summer of Chaos, enjoy this special release of our episode on The Fabelmans. Our Oscar gauntlet was so crowded, this one got nudged out of the rotation. It didn’t exactly fit with our next series, so I tucked it away for an occasion just like this. Enjoy!

Coming soon: A special bonus round of our Never Seen Series, and then the drawing for the Summer of Chaos!
