We Love Movies
|
Flicks With Friends aims to bring you insightful and fun film and entertainment commentary without the nerd rage (mostly) prevalent on most sites nowadays.
Hosted by filmmaker and podcaster Shaun Collins (a veteran of over 25 years of jockeying a video store counter) each episode brings a new topic and a rotating group of friends to the couch to discuss. We also offer up our opinions on the latest movies with our spoiler free, two (ish) minute movie reviews. |

September 2021
After a well deserved vacation that kept us off our pages for a while, we are back with another update: We're almost at 2900 reviews on Letterboxd!
Our upcoming audio component has hit a small snag delay, but we are still working on it.
and COVID of course continues, please get vaccinated and be safe out there.

July 2021
We have now passed 2700 reviews in text, audio and video format posted on our Letterboxd page. Click HERE to see them all!
And while it pains us to have to revisit this topic, a reminder that COVID isn't over even it we're over it. Our latest video in the Covid Chronicles is a plea to get Vaccinated. It's not a bad idea to continue practicing social distancing and yes, continue to wear your mask (correctly. It goes over your mouth AND nose), for the time being. We can beat this thing if we stand together and stay positive! We love you. (And obviously, no, we don't own the rights to any of these clips. Used for entertainment purposes only.)

Finally getting around to posting our best of 2020. (Hey, we're behind. Sue us.) You can find it over on our episode page.
Announcing a NEW piece of the puzzle, friend of the show and Lord of the 4K Reggie has been kind enough to allow us to reprint his technical reviews of new 4K/HD discs as they come out, so you'll know whether or not to add em to your collections!
And speaking of all things new, we will soon be adding an additional review component to Flicks With Friends, an AUDIO element (you know, like a podcast). More on this later!
And speaking of collections, we now have more than 2650 reviews posted on our Letterboxd page. Click HERE to see them all!

May the fourth be with you! The "Final" piece of the puzzle of season one rescued and now available, just in time for Star Wars Day! (Remember that story about that hard drive we were working to recover as much material from as possible?) Behold a (very primitive) episode of the fabled season 1, rescued from the ether. THIS IS STAR WARS, with a look back at the OG trilogy and our thoughts on it's legacy and impact with guests Evan Reser, Joel Smith, Julian Green, and James Medina. Check it out on the episodes tab!
We've passed 2500 reviews on Letterboxd!

April 2021
Hey hey! Check out our episodes tab to find another BRAND NEW, NEVER-BEFORE SEEN episode recovered from our lost season. It's primitive, sure, but one of the best discussion panels we ever did, as Glenn Bartlett and Kara Heckard join me on the couch to discuss the Golden Age (era) of Disney Films. The panel was so good it ran long, so we cut it into two pieces rather than edit out any of the inherent goodness.
Also be sure to check out our Letterboxd page for the rest of our reviews, (nearly 2500 now!)

The COVID Chronicles 2020
As COVID-19 devastated the country last year, we thought we'd create a positive message using some of our favorite movie clips. We collected them here for you. An now that there is actual hope on the horizon, a reminder to be safe and smart. COVID isn't over even it you're over it. Continue practicing social distancing, wear your mask (correctly. It goes over your mouth AND nose), and stay positive! We love you. (And obviously, no, we don't own the rights to any of these clips. Used for entertainment purposes only.)

Our Mission Statement
|
It's very much envogue right now to hate things we love. Star Wars, DC, Disney. You can almost tell how big a fan of something someone is by how much venom they spit all over it. Don't get us wrong, some of it--okay, maybe a lot of it--is very much deserved.
But we wanted to focus on the good. We want to talk about movies because we love movies. Life is too short to hate everything, so lets focus on the great stuff we do have. |
How We Started |
All Are Welcome |
|
Everybody has that group of friends that you hang out with and talk movies with and then you get up to leave and somebody asks something and you stand around and discuss that for another two hours right? We we basically thought it would be cool to record those conversations.
|
We might put on a good show of being elitist, (oh, who are we kidding? We are.) But all are welcome here. And your feedback is always welcome, whether you agree with us or don't. Please feel free to contact our ever growing list of contributors directly or through the contact page here to voice your thoughts!
