The Plotaholics Podcast: Movie Reviews

Each week, authors Shane Wilson and Bryan Tann watch one movie before meeting for an informal and wide-ranging conversation inspired by that movie. Reminiscent of the nights spent debating your favorite films over drinks, The Plotaholics Podcast seeks to capture the organic, shared experience of life as consumers of popular culture. Long-time practitioners of pop culture discussion will understand this one thing: the best conversations rarely stay on topic. So, if you “have too much time on your hands,” or you care immensely for something even if it’s “just a movie,” this podcast is for you. Tune in each week as The Plotaholics begin with a film and let the conversation take them where it will.Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/tyjMeVReAD

The Plotaholics Podcast: Movie Reviews

Hot Tub Time Machine

July 28, 2019 • Shane Wilson and Bryan Tann • Episode 9

The Summer of Cusack rolls on with the 2010 comedy, Hot Tub Time Machine. Hot Tub Time Machine stars Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, Clark Duke, Crispin Glover, Lizzy Caplan, Chevy Chase, and (of course) John Cusack!

Three friends (and one nephew) get sucked back in time through a portal in a hot tub. They are dropped back in the mid 1980s and must decide whether or not they will relive the weekend as it originally happened. The other option? Use their knowledge of the future to change their pasts.

In this week's episode, Shane and Bryan discuss Hot Tub Time Machine and spend a more than adequate amount of time discussing the virtual life simulator, Second Life.
