Screen Cleaning - Season 3

For the holidays we watched A Christmas Carol. All the Christmas Carols.

Some genres just don't get enough love on movie podcasts. After the year we've had let's relax and enjoy some easy, feel good TV Christmas movies.

Our look at feel good movies include some underdog stories.

In this episode, we place focus on some underrated movies.

Screen Cleaning serves up a Thanksgiving guest list with fictional characters from film and tv.

Screen Cleaning examines 16 of the most iconic sitcoms.

Today the Screen Cleaning crew is focused on the small screens in our pockets.

The history of horror has taken us on twists and turns. Things that were scary to audiences in the 50's don't get a peep today. And black and white special effects and blood were less than special. So the question has to be asked (and answered today) does old horror hold up?

There are lots of ways to enjoy the scary season and we're exploring them all month long on Screen Cleaning. Last week was books and this week we're going to the theatre.

This October on Screen Cleaning we're looking beyond our usual fare of TV and movies to see how else people find their scares. Today it's Screen Cleaning Book Club as Jeff, Cole, and Mickey spent the week reading Henry James' classic "The Turn of the Screw".

All those nights watching IMDb more than the movie in front of you are about to pay off, this is our first ever Screen Cleaning Movie Trivia Night.

It's time for another special episode where Jeff and Cole get to induct two of their favorite movies into The Screen Cleaning Hall of Fame. Take a deep dive into the themes and meaning of Dave and Babe.

Critics love talking about movies they hate, but on Screen Cleaning we look for the good even in the bad. Even though Jeff and Cole don't actually like the movies they're talking about today, they wish they did. That's the positive movie spin we give you every week only on Screen Cleaning.

We've gone three years without resorting to a clip show, but today is that day. But don't go yet, we've got reviews of Mulan & Tenet just in time for theaters opening again. Then Jeff Simpson and Cole Wissinger share their favorite episodes of the podcast, and favorite moments through the years.

It's always fun to imagine what the next big Hollywood reboot would look like. The Disney live action remakes are just multi-million dollar versions of the internet photoshopping Chris Pratt to look like Hercules, which we're behind by the way. We have a smaller budget though, so today we talk about what if some of the biggest and most beloved movies of all time came out today. Who would play the Wonderful Wizard of Oz or who are 2020's Good, Bad, and Ugly?

Reboots and remakes are nothing new in the movie game. And as much as we lament every time another of our favorites is resurrected for a cash grab, it also gets our imaginations churning. This week and next week Jeff and Cole will be taking some of their most beloved movies from different eras and remaking them with actors from a different time. What would a 90's Avengers look like or The Fast and the Furious in the golden age of Hollywood?

Going back to school is going to be different this year than ever before. But one thing that is the same is Jeff & Cole talking about back to school movies here on Screen Cleaning. Our admissions board is busy watching a new batch of applicants this year, find out if some of your favorite films will make the cut. Graduating with honors it's Screen Cleaning.

This is the time of the year when we would normally be wrapping up the Summer Box Office that was, but 2020 is definitely not a normal year. Jeff and Cole still wanted an excuse to talk about movies though so step into this alternate timeline where we spent the summer at the theaters instead of on our couch. What would the top grossing movie of Summer 2020 have been, and in case you weren't keeping track, what was the top grossing movie of this unique year in the real world?

Every week we try to dig a little deeper for the best in the entertainment world. Today the whole show is about obscure movies you may not be familiar with, but you should be. Why doesn't a certain film connect with audiences or how does it slip through the cracks? We'll try to find out on Screen Cleaning.

Sports are back on the screens! In honor of the slightly late Major League Baseball Opening Day, Jeff and Cole are talking baseball movies today. Although they disagree on their favorite sport to watch, and which sports movies are the best, and just about everything, they do come together that Baseball has the most hits, and deepest bench. While you can't go out to the ball game or out to the crowd, stay in and watch some great baseball movies with Screen Cleaning.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's that some years are better than others. Today we take a look back at some of the greatest years in Hollywood history like 1999, 1939, 1994, 1975...really anything other than this year. Specific actors can have memorable years too, you couldn't go to the theater last year without seeing Keanu Reeves in something. It's the greatest years in movies on Screen Cleaning.
