The Incomparable's Greatest Hits

Hey, there’s a new “Ghostbusters” trailer! From 2011, here’s our discussion of the original 1984 film.

Rest in peace, Hans Gruber. In 2010 we declared “Die Hard” the best Christmas movie ever.

If you didn’t listen to our episode about “Inside Out” back in July, well, the movie’s available on video now. So watch it. And then listen as we draw a circle around our own parental sadness and instead focus on the joy of an instant Pixar classic.

From 2011: Turn on your flux capacitors, calculate how many “jigabytes” your hard drive contrains, and prepare for our deconstruction of the “Back to the Future” movie series. Which film reigns supreme? Plus, we talk about other time-travel movies we love. This episode recorded entirely live in a tiny, enclosed space.

“The Martian” is about to hit theaters, but we talked about the book version in early 2014. Get caught up!

We hear that sci-fi writer John Scalzi is popular. Back in 2011 we talked about a bunch of his books, especially the Old Man’s War series.

This may or may not be one of our best episodes, but it’s our best episode recorded outdoors. In the spirit of summer, please enjoy this somewhat rambly but quite amusing discussion with Steve, Greg, and Jason, along with some special surprise guests—no, seriously, we get interrupted a couple of times—at a beer garden in San Diego County.

Earlier this year we watched “Star Wars: Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith” and then reviewed it with our usual precision and cruelty. This is a special, never-before-released cut of the two-part episode, putting everything back together in a single audio file for your listening pleasure.

Back in 2014 we watched “Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace” and then reviewed it. Mercilessly. This is a special, never before released cut of the two-part episode, putting everything back together in a single audio file for your listening pleasure.

From 2013: The Incomparable’s Superhero Draft is now in session, and justice is on the clock! Hear our collection of panelists assemble several excellent super-teams. Who will inhabit the Hall of Justice? And why are Superman and Batman looking on forlornly? Are they just not team players? Take your Sharknado to the Evil Museum and ponder just why Iron Man might not be the hero you think he is.
