Meet the Hosts
Two brothers.
One projector.
Matt and Jimmy live and breathe cinema. Every week they break down the movies that matter — new releases, hidden gems, classic favorites — with spirited debates, heartfelt rankings, and the occasional bracket-style tournament.
Reviews. Rankings. Drafts. Movie news. Top 5s and Bottom 5s. If it plays on a screen, it's fair game.

Latest Episode
Our Childhood Cartoon Network Tournament #98
🎬 https://popcornhourpod.com/ For this episode, my brother and I each picked six Cartoon Network shows we grew up watching and put them all into a tournament. One by one, the shows go head-to-head until we're left with a winner. We talk about the shows we grew up loving, why we picked them, and argue over which ones deserve to move on. Some matchups were easy, some definitely weren't. Who would win if you made your own Cartoon Network tournament?
