As a bit of a change up today, we decided to take a step back from our usual nerdy topics & look back at a revolutionary piece of cinematic history: Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator. While it may be a tall order, we have decided to use its 80th Anniversary (technically, it was last Thursday) to give our thoughts on the movie itself & our views on its place in cinematic history.

Fifteen years ago, Universal Studios did the one thing that Fox proved too short-sighted to do three years earlier: let Joss Whedon be Joss Whedon. Now, we look back at the legacy of the cult classic, Serenity, & see what significance it still has in today’s cinema landscape. Was it good? Did it actually provide closure to the fans? Does it hold up against other sci-fi films now? Find out on today’s edition of Dallas Geek!

More importantly, is it already the best musical of the decade? Tune in to find out!

If there is one thing that Hollywood loves to make movies about more than superheroes, it’s stories of the people rising up against a tyrannical government. We thought it would be a good idea to take a look at the quintessential anarchist movie in modern cinema, V for Vendetta, & see if it really holds up today.

Today, friend of the show, David, from The Last Call Podcast, has offered to help us solve this lifelong question by playing the part of our knock-off Alex Trebek for the first ever DG Trivia Game Show!

With all the hype around the Disney Princesses, the one question that has become all but forgotten today is, “are their movies actually good?” That’s the question we will be looking into in today’s edition of Does It Still Hold Up? First up on the chopping block is the highly beloved The Little Mermaid!

After months of sitting through the pandemic wasteland that is the entertainment news cycle right now, we finally have some stuff to talk about: POKEMON!!!

In the ongoing debate around Star Wars ever since the Disney purchase, we find that most arguments come back to the same, simple debate, “which trilogy was better: the prequels or the sequels?” Find out all this & more today on Dallas Geek!

So…Mike may actually kill me for this title…but it’s NOT stopping me!!! Today we’re talking about the Robert Zemeckis classic & maybe Mike favorite film of all time: Back to the Future!

The Matrix may be the most heavily analyzed movie in the 21st Century aside from Star Wars.

Today, we take a look back at Fight Club & see if it really deserves the title of Cult Classic or if it has secretly been a well marketed dud this whole time.

We’re back today with yet another potentially controversial addition to our “Does It Still Hold Up” series. The Boondock Saints is one of those movies that is practically a right of passage for middle school & high school boys around America.

For anyone who grew up in the 90’s, one of the most beloved movies for most of us is easily the original Home Alone. However, would this smash hit from our childhoods be as big of a deal if it were released to audiences today, without the benefit of nostalgia to help it along?

While it is easy to think of Memorial Day as just another day off from work, it is important to remember that this is meant to be a day where we respectfully remember the men & women of the military who have given their lives to protect the people here at home & all around the world.

In our next look back at popular media from the past & see if it would still hold up in today’s entertainment landscape, we decided to take one out of left field & look at the original War of the Worlds radio broadcast!
