Oh boy, 2018's Distorted. It's a movie alright. Yep, there's a beginning, a middle, and an end. It's got a runtime of an hour and 26 minutes, you better believe it. People are acting in it, that's right. John is in it, Christina Ricci is in it. There's some other people, and guess what, they're talking. And it's all on screen. Three more.

The Cusack Cult Cast - Broadcast News (1987)

Broadcast News (1987), directed by James L. Brooks, was a genuinely great movie. If you were looking for an episode where we don't completely hate the outcome, this is the one. Also, this is a special episode because it's more of a Joan Cusack episode than a John one. Joan was extremely cute in 1987, I'll say it.

Get your shit out of my shit. Get your shit, out of my shit. Lucas does his cartoon impressions, and we get dirty talking about the freaking orange in the whitehouse.

The Cusack Cult Cast - Roadside Prophets (1992)

You never asked for it, but he's been brought back. Tyler Cartwright rejoins the show to talk about the movie his father stars in, Roadside Prophets.

Roadside Prophets is the worst movie we have watched so far. It is an incomprehensible mess that wields the worst qualities of the 90s. Somehow both timeless and aged to perfection, the navel gazing gen x narrative goes exactly nowhere, and feels justified in doing so.

Yes, we did deceive Tyler in the beginning of the show.

The Cusack Cult Cast - City Hall (1996)

Get the yiddish out of your gumbo. You're like a detective from a dime novel. A crab in the pool signals to the tropical storm on its way. The banana peel on the western front is dew on the dogwood tree.

City Hall (1996) is a magnificent mess, and nowhere near as charming as True Colors. Another centrist political narrative, wrapped fifteen times over by its four different screenwriters, City Hall struggles to say anything at all. We have hard discussions about the nature of irony, and just how tainted we've become watching these movies.

The Cusack Cult Cast - Road To Wellville (1994)

The unexpected surprise, an actually good movie. Selling us on only sunshine and ideas, the Welville health clinic seduced Lucas and Dylan. A film that somehow feels of the time, and yet severely underappreciated on release. A large cast of characters perfectly weave the various intertwining plots of this ruminating, comedic narrative.

There's a bit of election discussion, of course. Skip the first fifteen minutes or so if you're tired of it. We completely understand. We're all slowly decaying from the conversations around this topic.

A lazy episode for a lazy movie. Lucas and Dylan record while lying on the floor, in the darkness, to match the languidness our film this week, Floundering (1994).

Perhaps a bit more incisive than we originally thought, Floundering charters the early to mid 90s struggle of Gen X man. It's absurd, a bit amateur, and it falls on its face, but it's a curiosity, and certainly not the worst thing we've watched.

Pray for Rain returns. . .

Sure, we're reviewing 1999's Cradle Will Rock with @strugglinguncle this week. But more importantly we're squashing beef.

I can't remember much about the film, but it has to do with labor and theater.

No, you read that right. 1999. Listen, we've prided ourselves in the past on how through we are when it comes to this podcast. We watch every movie in order. But hey, sometimes you miss a TV movie. We're sorry.

Carelessness aside, I think we were both pleasantly surprised with 1999's The Jack Bull. A movie written by John Cusack's dad, Dick Cusack. Some great character actors, beautiful scenery, and a pretty engaging story made this a fun movie to watch.
