This week's episode we talk about the 1998 anti-hero movie, Blade.
The incredible Wesley Snipes plays the titular vampire vampire-hunter, and if you don't think we giggled at the word titular, you must be new here. Welcome!
-ANNA is ready to attack a movie she truly adores. And by ready, I mean forced. Despite her reluctance, she does have a few questions for Katrina:
Are vampires really so bad? Is it weird some of them can avoid exploding with sunblock? Why do they love rubber duckies?
-KATRINA has her trusty notebook filled with interesting trivia and an unquenchable thirst for most of the cast. Will she let any of Anna's attacks sully this movie? You'll have to listen to find out...

In this episode, we discuss the awesome 1986 "slasher" flick: April Fool's Day. This movie has everything--a clever premise, the amazing Deborah Foreman, a creepy winking Jack in the Box...everything.
*If you haven't watched the movie and don't want the ending spoiled, check it out and then come back and listen to the episode.
-ANNA defends this truly unique 80's horror movie. Does it still hold up? She certainly thinks so and wants you to know why. Spoiler alert: because it's rad.
-KATRINA attacks this time and finds it wasn't particularly difficult arguing against a Jack in the Box, a skeevy character, and 80's era homophobia.

Like Kristin Wiig's character, Annie: are you in your 30's, have 40,000 dollars in debt, and live with a weirdo? Okay well, we can unpack all that later, but for now...how about listening to our episode on the 2011 movie Bridesmaids! It will solve none of your problems because you are your problem. You are also your solution.
-ANNA shows up with quite a few attacks she feels are strong, though none as strong as whether or not it's likely someone would make one, and only one, cupcake. Who knew this would be such an enraging issue for her, but Anna is real fired up about it!
-KATRINA has zero worries about having to defend a movie she feels is unattackable. Though someone making a solo cupcake was not something she thought she'd have to defend against, but whatever.
