Do the Ernest Movies Still Hold Up (or Were We Just Kids)?
Explicit content warning
12/11/23 • 143 min
As kids, we LOVED Ernest and would rent every movie we could get our hands on. It’s probably been over two decades since we’ve watched one, but we still remember the key moments (and not much else). Even though we worry we might be as annoyed as our mothers were back in the 90s, we are enticed by the shot of nostalgia and decided to rewatch Jim Varney’s entire Ernest filmography for this episode!
Dustin gives spoiler-free first impressions of Napoleon, Next Goal Wins, Home For the Holidays (1995), and I Stand Alone: The Sully Erna Story. Jake talks about the pre-finale episodes of Squid Game: The Challenge and gives second impressions after re-watching Midnight Mass.
We also kick off our December giveaway where you can win 6 months of FREE MOVIE TICKETS! Go to Instagram or MovieBonerz.com for how to enter before the end of the year!
Special thank you to Alan Hlavacek and Travis Mason from Attack on Venus for the sick theme music! Check them out here: https://attackonvenus.bandcamp.com & https://open.spotify.com/artist/34bZPk9DrWCURfBNmkRiKt

Previous Episode
Top 10: Comedy (Redux)
In our third episode ever recorded, we had technical difficulties and made some really silly decisions about our top ten comedies. So we're taking the opportunity now to present our proper favorites once and for all! I hope you like funny movies because these are definitely the funniest films ever made. I also hope you like repeating the lines and giggling and obscure references because there's a lot of that as well. If you're interested, you can still find the original Top 10: Comedy episode, available exclusively at MovieBonerz.com.
Dustin gives his spoiler-free first impressions of Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, Fincher's The Killer, and Roth's (what?) Thanksgiving. Jake talks about watching the first couple episodes of The Curse and the much anticipated History of the World, Part 2.

Next Episode
Top 10: When We Were Young
Your favorite childhood films are likely a weird amalgam of old movies your parents showed you, new movies from your generation, and random crap you rented one time with your best friend, that you don't remember the name of, but will never forget at least one scene. This episode is about all of that as we both share our top ten movies we watched over and over when we were young. It's so nostalgic and fun, we thought it was the perfect mindset to return to for the holidays. I gotta say, after returning to our child selves, we were weird but we were awesome!
Dustin gives spoiler-free first impressions of Godzilla Minus One and Dream Scenario. Jake's shares thoughts on Good Burger 2!
