Shouldn’t Tim Allen’s character hate Christmas before being possessed by the soul of Santa Claus? Why did they give Wendy Crewson Uma Thurman’s exact haircut from Pulp Fiction? How fantastic is Judge Reinhold in this, as always? And how difficult was it to work with Tim Allen on that Disney+ sequel show? PLUS: Steve has an eagle eye spying a fat foot double for Tim Allen!  The Santa Clause stars Tim Allen, Judge Reinhold, Wendy Crewson, Eric Lloyd, David Krumholtz, and Peter Boyle as Mr. Whittle; directed by John Pasquin.

“Mank was right, the twister looks good!” - Andrew on the special effects On this week’s episode, We ❤️ Movies month concludes with an absolutely wild conversation on the beloved 1939 classic, The Wizard of Oz! How beautiful is all the craft to behold on-screen as this movie unfolds? Where’s the story where the town revolts against that disgusting Miss Gulch? Wait, how many times did that dog actor portray a dog named Toto? How great is all the vaudeville physical comedy these actors utilize? And in a film filled with terror, how horrifying are those talking trees? PLUS: Did the CIA put the poison in Oz’s poppy fields? The Wizard of Oz stars Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Jack Haley, Billie Burke, Margaret Hamilton, Charley Grapevine, Clara Blandick, and Terry as Toto; directed by Victor Fleming.  Catch us at our final live show of the year happening in Boston, Massachusetts on Wednesday, December 4!

“This will be a particularly ignorant episode… from an historical standpoint” - Steve, on WHM’s lack of history education On this week’s special We ❤️ Movies episode, we’re chatting about Royal Rid’s 2000-era action epic, Gladiator! How great of a run did this film set off for Russell Crowe? How easily eerie is Joaquin here? Did Jesse Ventura try to snag an audition along with Sven-Ole? How intense is that tiger sequence? Is the CGI’d Oliver Reed the first cinematic instance of Hollywood going to Tarkin Town and should we be calling it Oliver Reed-ville instead? And how funny is that “They Say No” decapitation? PLUS: How is this movie only one of THREE times Royal Rid was nominated for Best Director?  Gladiator stars Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix, Connie Nielsen, Richard Harris, Derek Jacobi, Djimon Hounsou, David Schofield, John Shrapnel, Ralf Moeller, Spencer Treat Clark, David Hemmings, Tommy Flanagan, Sven-Ole Thorsen, and Oliver Reed as Proximo; directed by Ridley Scott.

“It’s almost too much of a conspiracy for a sequel to The Fugitive to handle.” - Andrew, on the conspiracy plot On this very special patrons-only episode of We Hate Movies, we’re chatting about the soggy, unnecessary continuation of The Fugitive, which is a flawless movie, it’s the very flawed sequel, U.S. Marshals! Why couldn’t Wesley be allowed to do some martial arts in these fight scenes? Why is it just another hunt for a wrongfully accused fella? Is this film one of the first ever instances of—hold it right there! This episode is for subscribers only!
