The Movies of 1999

While Craig attempts to set up a WiFi Mesh using root vegetables, Jason is beamed up to an intergalactic adventure in the wonderful Galaxy Quest, only to return to Earth with a thud, to the tune of "All Star" by Smash Mouth, as he finds himself in the ho-hum superhero parody of Mystery Men.

This week a sickly Craig attempts to steal Jason's limelight but is temporarily expelled from the podcast instead as the pair declare their love for Yes, Minister and enter the filmed stage play of David Mamet's "The Winslow Boy" before seeking psychological help in small-town USA with the understated but very funny "Mumford".

Craig and Jason fight over a mysterious remote control and are transported first back to the melodramatic 1990s, and then to the monochromatic 1950s, to disrupt fictitious lives in the eventually colourful Pleasantville, before time-jumping again to the 1960s where Winona is waiting with a strong female cast to transport us into the world of Girl, Interrupted.

This week Jason and Craig try the American Romper Stomper on for size with the Edwards Norton and Furlong in the controversial moral tale of American History X before entering the bizarre world of Anthony Banderas's farcical melodrama in Crazy in Alabama.

Jason and Craig enter Kubrik's dreamscape to travel under the rainbow to the tune of a single, repeated note on the piano in the curious fable of fidelity in Eyes Wide Shut before retreating to a heist turned romance in the strangely nude The Thomas Crown Affair.

Craig and Jason begin this week's episode with a bleak exploration of generational toxic masculinity in snowy New Hampshire with the dismal and redemptionless Affliction, before venturing into the world of beauty pageants with the hilarious mockumentary Drop Dead Gorgeous.

This week Jason records the podcast surreptitiously by hiding behind bushes and following Craig around, all while sheltering from chubby rain, as the pair somehow produce a discussion about the Steve Martin and Eddie Murphy comedy Bowfinger, directed by Yoda. The pair then bum a smoke and enter the world of punk NYC for a second week running to find out what Elvis Costello did for

It's off to race cars around Paris and Nice in pursuit of a classic McGuffin this week as Jason and Craig dive over railings into the world of Espionage and Samurai with the classic De Niro movie Ronin, after which they regret their decision to move to 1977 New York in search of serial killers in Spike Lee's bad joint Summer of Sam.

This week Jason and Craig eat a lot of spaghetti and talk with a New York accent as the enter the world of the mafia, beginning with Enemy of the State, a prescient surveillance-state thriller starring a pre-slap Will Smith before wondering about what went wrong with the woeful Mickey Blue Eyes, a forgettable rom-com that milks the last drop out of the world's fascination with the
