PIXAR is at it again with another adventure where the only real villain is the simple challenges of life! Joy, Sadness, and the rest of the gang is back, but this time, they&#39;re accompanied by some new emotions, and they could not have picked a worse week to move in. Riley has Hockey Camp to think about! You&#39;ll laugh, you&#39;ll cry, you&#39;ll relive horrific memories of puberty.

If I had a nickel for every time a Hogwarts student was influenced to commit some worrisome acts due to a book they found, I have 2 nickels. Which isn&#39;t a lot, but it&#39;s weird that it happened twice. Anyway, some people love this movie, some people hate this movie, but everyone should at lease have an opinion! I mean, c&#39;mon, Dumbledore forces a man to stop being a chair! It may not be perfect, but it&#39;s got some great stuff!

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

We&#39;re finally doing it! We&#39;re covering the Dune movies! You&#39;ve seen &#39;em. You&#39;ve loved &#39;em. If you didn&#39;t you&#39;re weird and we hate you. These movies are glorious and Denis Villeneuve deserves our never ending gratitude and praise! I haven&#39;t been this excited about CGI sand since Spider-man 3. I haven&#39;t cared this much about a giant worm since that episode of Spongebob. I haven&#39;t been this in love with seeing something in black and white since Harvey! These movies are INCREDIBLE!

The ghostbusters are at it again, and not just the founding members, but the new crew as well. It&#39;s a full team up cuz this icy jerk ain&#39;t going down without a fight. It&#39;s not perfect, but we had a lot of fun watching it. Definitely worth a watch!

The Oscars are here, so right before we all find out who&#39;s winning and who&#39;s losing, we decided to take a quick minute or two, or 106, to go though how we felt about all the Oscar nominated films we were able to get around to seeing this year. Hop on instagram and let us know what you thought of the Oscar nominations this year.

We are continuing our series on Harry Potter! Our guests for this 2nd installment chose the 4th Harry Potter film as the one they wanted to cover, so we are looking at the Tri-Wizard Tournament! How do you like this one? How does it stack up against the rest?

The new animated movie from Disney is a celebration of their 100 year legacy of magic through animation and storytelling! A lot of negativity has been directed at it so far, but we&#39;re here to say, not everyone feels that way! It may not be perfect, but there&#39;s a lot here to enjoy! What did you think?

&#34;Yer&#39; a wizard, &#39;Arry.&#34; We are kickin&#39; off the most magical franchise we&#39;ve covered yet! Although we won&#39;t necessarily be covering them in chronological order, we are starting with the first film. Each movie in the franchise will feature 1 or 2 guests of ours, and we&#39;re letting the guests pick the movie! Let us know what your thoughts are on the Harry Potter franchise as well as this first film in particular.

The newest film from director Martin Scorsese. It is, without a doubt, going to be a major contender at the Oscars this year. The historic tale of murders that were able to be left unchecked, unchallenged and uninvestigated for years due to bigotry and greed. What did you think? Was a 3 1/2 hour runtime too long?

The Reel Couple has been BUSY this summer! We saw a ton of movies these last few months! Most of them have luckily been really great, but if we&#39;re being honest with ourselves, there&#39;s been some crap, too. We&#39;re taking a walk down memory lane as we review every new release we saw this summer. It&#39;s a bit of a long one, but there&#39;s a lot to talk about. What did you guys think?

Summer 2023 Wrap-up

4 asian american women travel to China for a business trip that could have been a zoom meeting. But before they know it, they&#39;ve gotten themselves caught up in a wacky adventure that so desperately wants to be considered funny. Unfortunately, writing crude humor still requires some skill, and this movie didn&#39;t quite have enough. It wants to feel like the Hangover trilogy, with the female cast of Bridesmaids, and with the cultural awareness of Crazy Rich Asians, but instead it feels like and hour and a half we&#39;ll never get back

Indy is back for one final adventure! A final send off to the best archeologist we&#39;ve ever loved! And we are relieved to admit, we really dug it! Now, with that said, it&#39;s not quite perfect. And it led to a pretty heated argument. The Reel Couple really gets into it in this one! BUCKLE UP!

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Indy&#39;s getting older, and unfortunately, his days of swinging from vines with monkeys are behind him. But don&#39;t you worry, Spielberg thought of everything! That&#39;s why he invited a shiny, young Shia LaBeouf along for the ride. Although, by the end of this movie, just like Cate Blanchett, we too felt we were having our eyes burned out of our faces, we still stuck it out and we watched to the end. And we did it for you! And we&#39;d do it again! We just really don&#39;t want to. Please don&#39;t ask us to sit through this again! PLEASE!!!

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

What can we say that hasn&#39;t already been said? Hopefully something, I mean, we said a whole bunch! There must be at least one thing in here that no one&#39;s talking about. We LOVED this movie.... obviously! It&#39;s one of those movies that took on the impossible task of living up to its predecessor film, and proceeded to somehow be even better! But what did YOU think of this work of art? Let us know on our instagram!

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

If you ever made the choice to watch this movie, then you have chosen..... Wisely. This movie is great! It&#39;s got something for everyone! Father/son bonding, Sean Connery scaring birds, nazis getting beaten in hilarious are humiliating ways, christianity themed booby traps! What&#39;s not to love?!?!

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2023/6/10/22/7956c8c7-a549-4665-83b6-3c87150da63d_guardians_3.mp3

GUYS!!!! There&#39;s a new MCU movie out, but it&#39;s actually FANTASTIC!!!! So good, in fact, that BOTH members of the Reel Couple got emotional! Not just during the movie, there were sone water works while recording the episode too! Don&#39;t believe me? Listen in and here Dallas get VERY choked up!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 3

Another installation in the Fast Saga! Can you believe it?!?! It&#39;s Crazy! It&#39;s over the top! It&#39;s absolutely ridiculous from beginning to end! And with all that said, at least one of us actually really enjoyed it! Jason Mamoa was easily the best part. But what did you think? Let us know on instagram @the.reel.couple

Disney is at it again with another live action remake of one of their classics! This time they&#39;re coming for the fish girl and her little friends, too! We had a lot to say about this one, mostly negative, but what did you think of it? Let us know on instagram @the.reel.couple

The Little Mermaid (2023)

Let&#39;s face it, Ke Huy Quan is doing all the heavy lifting in this movie.You can&#39;t help but love him in this breakout performance! Almost everything else, we could easily help but love it. But what do you think of the first theatrical chronological Indy adventure? Let us know on Instagram @the.reel.couple

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Starting our watch through of the Indiana Jones series leading up to Dial of Destiny, we kicked it off with the O.G. The 1981 classic staring Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, John Rhys-Davies, and Paul Freeman! This movie still holds up so well. Charming characters, impressive use of practical effects, and face-melting nazis. What&#39;s not to love?!?!
