CTP 104: Bottle Rocket
Our interlude between Indiana Jones and Barbenheimer will be filled with Wes Anderson's two first feature length films, Bottle Rocket and Rushmore!

CTP 102: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Nineteen years after Indy rode off into the sunset, Harrison Ford put the hat on once again for The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Come back next week as we wrap up our Indiana Jones series with the new film, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny!
CTP 101: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
First, Indy found the Ark of the Covenant, then in a prequel he discovered the Temple of Doom, now he makes his last crusade. Or maybe he will have two more? Hmm, that didn't seem well planned out. Well, either way, we're here to review The Last Crusade where Indy comes face to face with the Holy Grail and his papa, Sean Connery! Come back next week when we follow Indy to the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
CTP 100: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

CTP 98: Book Club: The Next Chapter
The guys are back, back to Italy that is! The Book Club girls give us a Tour of Italy (TM of the Olive Garden) while getting ready for Vivian's wedding.

We'll be reviewing the 2018 cinematic masterpiece and the new film in theaters now over the next two weeks!
CTP 95: Knock at the Cabin
Who's that knocking at my cabin door? It's M. Night Shyamalan with Dave Bautista. This movie made some waves earlier this year and now streams on Peacock, so Ryan chose it to be his host pick for this round. Come back next week for Brendan's pick, 65 starring Adam Driver!
CTP 94: Children of the Corn (2023)
Conor was swayed by He Who Walks Behind the Rows to select that the guys review the new Children of the Corn (2023). Actually, 2020? Sarasota let us know.

CTP 92: Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Hey! We're back and leveling up with Super Mario Bros. No not the new one yet, but rather the 1993 oddity that is the film starring Bob Hoskins, John Leguizamo, and Dennis Hopper.
