For this episode, things get hairy... (literally?) with Jay hurling Mike into the far-flung future of... 1991? By reviewing the Tom Selleck/Michael Crichton sci-fi team-up that is 1982's "Runaway," the guys embark on a thoughtful look back (and forward), at one point discussing how technology was predicted to have evolved and how it actually evolved. But before things get too heady, they quickly return to their usual foolishness, comparing their choices for bottom five mustaches in honor of the iconic soup-strainer Tom Selleck is best-known for. And if a list of 10 bad cinematic cookie-dusters isn't enough, Mike and Jay play an epic game of Kick Two, Pick Two that pits four famous dental drapes against one another, with only two allowed to survive on the upper lip of film history. Will Kurt Russell's "Tombstone" mouth mane make the cut? Listen now to find out!

As Filmjitsu Summer comes to an end, Mike delivers to Jay the cinematic C-4 explosive that is 2003's "From Justin to Kelly" starring Kelly Clarkson, thankfully in her first - and only - lead acting role. Stepping from the ashes of his lost summer watching horrendous dreck, Jay dutifully reviews this "musical romantic comedy" and manages to say some nice things, which is a bit like living through a blitzkrieg and complimenting the enemy for pretty-colored fireballs. Following the review, Mike and Jay offer their bottom five parties from movies and then play a popstar-filled game of Kick-Two, Pick-Two during which Jay is faced with one the most existential struggles of his life. Will he cast his beloved Madonna into the Forbidden Zone deleting her from history and future for all? Listen to find out that, and also what Jay has lying in wait for Mike's viewing displeasure on the next episode!

In this special episode of Filmjitsu, Jay and Mike record from the parking lot of the cinema after watching Lee Isaac Chung's "Twisters," a sequel of sorts to the much-loved popcorn flick, 1996's "Twister." Is pluralizing the original, charming, stand-alone disaster film and turning it into a franchise anything but a cash grab? The guys answer this from the confines of a 100° car and are joined by a special guest during their review! After that. grab onto something and get ready for a bumpy ride into a vortex of personal shame as your intrepid cinematic dualists return to the studio with their Bottom 5 Guilty Pleasures: personal favorite movies that are typically viewed as awful by critics and audiences alike. Finally, the guys tear through a guilt-ridden game of Kick-Two, Pick-Two before Mike unveils the next film Jay will have to suffer through. We're talking imminent rue-age!

Jay tosses Mike an unloaded pistol in a cinematic firefight with 2021's "Gunpowder Milkshake," a CGI-stuffed, Netflix-distributed, fox-force-five-riff that gathers an astonishingly great cast and wastes them on bad fight choreography and a foolish plot. As part of their discussion, they tackle the pros and cons of both the film and the genre it represents; ultra-stylized, violent, neo-noir flicks like "John Wick," "Bad Times at the El Royale" and "Atomic Blonde," which Jay calls "Neon Gun Fables." Following the theme of these types of movies, the guys list off their Bottom 5 Gun Scenes and then engage in a bullet-ridden game of Kick-Two, Pick-Two where four movies duel for continued existence. but only two will survive! Finally, the guys unveil a surprise for their next episode that promises to find them in a bigger swirl of hot bluster than usual.

If Filmjitsu is the podcast that wields movies like deadly weapons, Mike pulls out a cinematic neutron bomb when he forces Jay to watch and review, "Jaws The Revenge," the final sequel of the "Jaws" franchise that somehow manages to be simultaneously forgotten and a notorious flop. "Jaws 4" lives as a perfect example of this episode's Bottom 5 Fourth Installments list where the guys tally their least-favorite fourth movies in a variety of series. After debating the merits (and mere existence?) of the likes of "Alien: Resurrection" and "Vegas Vacation," Jay and Mike play a Summer Blockbuster-themed game of Kick Two, Pick Two wherein Jay immediately calls a much-loved 80's comic-book movie "trash." Make sure you're lathered up with plenty of sunscreen and check twice before getting into the water because when it comes to this episode of Hot Filmjitsu Summer: "This time it's personal."

Put on your life jacket because Mike and Jay continue with their summer-themed cinematic torture showcase with the 1997 debacle that is "Speed 2 - Cruise Control!" Mike weaves and bobs through his review of this sequel no one asked for with all the dexterity of an ocean liner controlled by Willem Dafoe while Jay laughs madly like the studio executive who greenlit this mess, his dreams of mad bank replaced by the reality that Jason Patric is no Keaunu Reeves. After the second-speed main review, the guys list off their bottom five "replacements," actors or characters in movies that replace originals in subsequent installments. Next, they leap through logic hoops to pick two Keanu Reeves movies out of four in a game of Kick Two, Pick Two that will make you go "WHOA!" Finally, Mike gets his revenge for having to watch the law firm of Bullock, Patric and Dafoe by giving Jay his movie for the next episode.

It's hot FIlmjitsu summer, and the guys are kicking it off with Mike making Jay watch 1980's "Blood Beach," a horror film that goes the bold route of blending the genre with... a dry police procedural? If a beach that eats people isn't your idea of a day in the sun, don't worry, the guys brought sunscreen and an umbrella as they count off their bottom five beach scenes! Finally, they chase that bit of summertime fun with a game of Kick Two, Pick Two where four classic, summer-set films go into the ring with only two allowed to survive!

Jay pummels Mike with the most painful cinematic weapon he's deployed yet: the 2019, Fred Durst written-and-directed disaster, "The Fanatic." A slog of a thriller that finds John Travolta playing an autistic man named Moose who is obsessed with a mid-tier celebrity, the guys try to understand why this thing even got made and discover... a Red Box connection? After reacting to Durst's direction and Travolta's haircut, they next count down their bottom five obsessions from movies and then play one of the most random games of Kick-Two, Pick-Two ever. where two of the four titles currently "Back at the Kiosk" at Red Boxes nation-wide get tossed into the Forbidden Zone, never to be seen again. Long live physical media (except those two!)
