What is the movie Congo about, you ask? Well, it’s about diamonds and an ape that can use sign language…and satellites and King Solomon?…and bloodthirsty albino apes. But most of all, it’s a movie about family. Join us as we try to make sense of one of 1995’s less-cherished “classics.”

We watched 1991's The Rocketeer, and it was just how we remembered it! Baffling!

2012 was a year of doomsday "predictions" and even worse…...disaster films based on doomsday "predictions." Who knew that the beginning of the end began with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey? The first installment in this...trilogy, I guess...turns out to be equal parts nausea and fan-disservice. Lots of gross to go around in a film Justin critiqued as being "too much dwarves!" Relive Paul's worst nightmares as Playing Favorites reviews The Hobbit films!

Do you like Street Fighter? How about fighting games? What about streets or just fighting in general? Do you like any of these things? You will find none of them in 1994's fever dream, Street Fighter. Starring Raul Julia as Bison, a warlord/land developer in his last and greatest performance and…wait….Jean? Claude? Van? Damme? as…Guile?? Did you know Playing Favorites is raising money for children's hospitals? We are!

What Bond movie has Bond getting fired? Perriwinkle ninjas? Camera Guns? A young-old Benecio Del Toro? Sharks? A guy named Sharkey? And a overkill bar fight that nobody asked for? You get one of the weirdest, yet strangely enjoyable, Bond movies. Did you know Playing Favorites is raising money for children's hospitals? We are!

For our 100th episode, we decided to get together and record an episode in-person. And what better way to celebrate this occasion than with a film near and dear to our hearts—Waterworld! This movie is a pivotal part of Playing Favorites from the very beginning, and only true connoisseurs will appreciate this film. Do you enjoy seeing Kevin Costner sailing a catamaran like a boss, or Dennis Hopper overselling terrible puns? Can you ignore the glaring inaccuracies and just enjoy a cigarette while wolfing down a can of SMEAT? If you can, then you're our kind of people. Cheers to the future!

We don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like Kyle McLaughlin. This Paul Atreides is soft, doughy, and whisper-thinks the whole movie. Join Justin and Paul on their second favorite desert planet: Dune.

Justin and Paul join Jean Claude Van Damme as he dives into the seedy underworld of super-secret, illegal full contact martial arts tournaments. You know, the kinds of things that kickboxing army privates go AWOL for while being chased by bumbling agents through the streets of Bangkok. Just another typical biopic based on a true story.

It's nice when a movie has a plot. And sometimes, it's better not to think too hard about stuff like that. This is the story of (Jon) Anaconda. Justin and Paul finally take on 1997's Anaconda and its star-studded cast, including Jon Voight, Ice Cube, Jennifer Lopez, Danny Trejo, and...Owen Wilson? NOTE: No snakes or weird accents were harmed in the making of this episode.

Fun Fact: Did you know: a movie can just be long shots of driving, awkward flirts, installing solar panels, and no killer bird payoff for at least 45 minutes??? Justin knows now. Join us as Paul subjects Justin to the "cult classic" Birdemic: Shock and Terror.

Justin and Paul give the original Mario movie its time to shine, featuring classic Mario characters like Hipster Toad, giant reptilian goombahs, and, uh, Big Bertha? Just trust the fungus and dance to the beat!
