What 2 Guys 5 Movies is All About
Hi, all! 2 Guys 5 Movies, a long-form film podcast, will be entering its third full year in 2022. The "primary" podcast features top five lists from various genres and subgenres. We have a wide range in our over 130 episodes. In 2020, we also added a weekly "supplemental" podcast, The Quick Cage, where co-host Frank Pellicone watched and reviewed every Nicolas Cage movie during an 23-month span. In 2022, a new supplemental podcast will begin weekly called The Spin Chagrin, where a ludicrous subgenre will be chosen randomly and Frank will have to watch and review the movie. This will be in addition to the main feed, where we will continue with extensive looks in top five lists.

The Spin Chagrin, a concept that finds Frank having to watch a movie he's never seen before based on the random spin of a wheel filled with off-the-wall genres, continues into its fourth year. All the categories are quotables from Frank himself. In this episode, Frank's category was "Handprint of Shit.” For this category, he watched and reviewed two movies, a callback to Amityville Death Toilet: Death Toilet and Death Toilet Number 2. Sigh.

As Frank continues his vacation, the 2 Guys are releasing a series of "interludes," watchalongs with terrible movies that give a glimpse into the oft-referenced Saturday night Zoom calls that Frank, Chris, and friend of the podcast Orion Wellmaker have. This watchalong is...something. The movie is titled L.A. AIDS Jabber, and if those words don't make sense to you, don't feel bad. This is about a man who contracts HIV and then goes around stabbing people with syringes of his blood.

As we start a new year, Frank and Chris will occasionally be covering random films that haven't been featured on the podcast yet, whether that's because the film simply didn't fit into a category, Frank doesn't like it as much as audiences or critics, etc. Hence, the 2 Guys start the year with something a little off-the-wall for them, rewatching and reviewing Three Amigos, the 1986 comedy starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Chevy Chase, and directed by John Landis.
