Matinee Monday: Cats

Was Antonio Saboto Jr.'s character moonlighting as a drag queen? And was Melvin Smiley based on a character in Murder, She Wrote? Paul finds answers to these questions and more when he responds to your corrections & omissions on last week's The Big Hit episode. Then, Jason pops in to chat with Paul about Widow's Bay, Taskmaster, and many more TV shows they're currently loving. And you know at the end of the episode Paul announces next week's new movie!

MORTAL KOMBAT! Comedian Cameron Esposito enters the fighting arena with Paul, June, and Jason to dissect 1995's Mortal Kombat, the stinker movie adaptation of the beloved video game. They discuss the anticlimactic fight with Goro, Christopher Lambert's wig, and how the mortals are unfazed by the supernatural. Plus, we learn about June's relationship with video games, find out Jason's thoughts on the soundtrack, and hear an amazing Second Opinion review. (Ep. #81 Originally Released 01/28/2014)

Mark Wahlberg, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Christina Applegate star in the 1998 action-comedy The Big Hit—a movie that tries to make a farce out of kidnapping and murder while giving off vibes of a rejected Mountain Dew commercial. Paul, June, and Jason analyze Marky Mark breakdancing mid-gun fight, the locker room masturbation convo, the video store clerk, if Keiko was in high school or college, the "romantic" kosher dinner cooking scene, and so much more. Plus, a discussion about a bathroom with two doors leads to a rare June traumatic childhood story. JASON'S COMPANION VIEWING RECS: Videoheaven (2025) Film Club (2025)

Mark Wahlberg and his wig play the lead singer of a heavy metal tribute band who ends up joining the real band in 2001's Rock Star. Comedian Jake Weisman (This Fool, Corporate) joins Paul, June, and Jason at Largo in L.A. to discuss the massive orgy scene, if Jennifer Aniston's character founded Starbucks, nipple piercings, and if this movie became a Jacob's Ladder Scenario after Izzy falls off stage. Plus, the audience tries to convince us they're British during the Q&A. (Ep. #182 Originally Released 02/16/2018)

June makes a rare Last Looks appearance to gab with Paul about everything from shooting the new Legally Blonde prequel series Elle, to her side quest to find the perfect carry-on bag. But first, Paul shares your corrections & omissions on last week's Live Wire episode, including some juicy inside info from the film's writer about Madonna the robot! Paul also plays a bonus deleted scene from the episode where he and Johnny Knoxville swap Steven Seagal stories. And oh yeah, we announce next week's new movie!
