An Overserved Oscar Preview for 2022
Fair warning: This episode goes heavy on the vino. We indulged in a few too many glasses before we sat down for this Oscar preview, and things get a little goofy. I'll be honest, this one was a challenge to edit. Still,

City of Angels (1998)
We conclude our Valentine's Day/Date Movie series with City of Angels. It's definitely the oddest and most cerebral of this month's offerings. On the plus side, it does have a bitchin' soundtrack, with lots of killer 90s vibes. - For vino,

Hawkeye
Hawkeye, Marvel's latest series on Disney+, was a surprisingly strong take on the Avengers' weakest link. Too often, heavy-hitters like Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America take center-stage, while Clint Barton ends up as a supporting player.

Die Hard 2 (1990)
