In this bonus episode of Almost Classic Movies, Jon and Donald step away from their usual film deep dives for a candid Q&A mailbag session. From favorite comfort movies to hot takes on overrated films, this episode is packed with laughter, nostalgia, and some surprisingly heartfelt movie memories.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • 🎥 All-time favorite films — why Casablanca and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off top the list.
  • 🍿 Comfort movies that never failBack to the Future, Empire Strikes Back, The Princess Bride, and more.
  • 😭 Movies that made us cry hardest — including Toy Story 3 and Furious 7.
  • 👻 Scariest movie experiences — from Poltergeist to The Strangers (and even Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island).
  • 🎟️ First movie theater memories — from Babe: Pig in the City to Pokémon: The First Movie.
  • 🔥 Spicy hot takes — Is Ferris Bueller overrated? Is It’s a Wonderful Life actually depressing? Are 3-hour movies cinematic art or self-indulgent?
  • 🤔 Actors we can’t stand (despite their popularity).
  • 🏆 Oscar winners we didn’t agree with — and why.
  • 🎶 Soundtracks vs. movies — when the music outshines the film.
  • 😂 Bad movies we’ll defend forever — yes, even Joe vs. the Volcano and Benchwarmers.
