CJ and Tommy talk about movies and determine whether or not they are okie dokie. We sit down to talk about a movie (that typically only one of us has seen), before then taking a break to go watch the movie, then returning to talk about our thoughts and whether or not the movie meets our criteria for being "okie dokie". As for what that means, well, we're still figuring it out. Commentary tracks are recorded for every movie and released in each episode's description. Episodes release every other Friday.The Film is Okie Dokie Discord Server

The Birdcage (Episode 11)
#11
Today at 11:01 AM

As a rejection to the last movie we watched (Wild Wild West), CJ and Tommy sit down to watch The Birdcage (1996). Will CJ hold true to the feelings he spoiled at the end of the last episode? Will Tommy disappoint CJ by not enjoying a bastion for representation? Listen to find out! Also if you're reading this before the 2025 Oscars, fill out the ballot!

Wild Wild West (Episode 10)
#10
01/31/2025

CJ and Tommy sit down to watch a film that certainly has... qualities. If you like nitpicking, this is the episode for you. If you like good movies, this might not be the episode for you. Also if you're reading this before the 2025 Oscars, fill out the ballot!

Mean Girls (Episode 09)
#9
01/17/2025

CJ and Tommy sit down to talk about one of the most quoted films of the 21st century. But 20 years removed from its release, how does Mean Girls hold up? How does it fare on a first viewing for someone who's only experienced it through cultural osmosis? Also, an e-mail correspondence begins.

Heathers (Episode 08)
#8
01/03/2025

CJ and Tommy sit down to watch one of the sneakiest influential movies of the 1980s. Seriously, this movie is quoted all the time in other media. Do the subject matter and its presentation hold up nowadays though?

Renaissance Man (Episode 07)
#7
12/20/2024

In this episode, we watch 1994's Renaissance Man, starring Danny DeVito. This movie is a classic from CJ's childhood that he has fond memories of. But the key question when revisiting movies you loved as a kid is: does it hold up?

Armageddon (Episode 06)
#6
12/06/2024

Oh yeah baby, we've finally arrived. CJ and Tommy sit down to talk about the 1998 classic Armageddon, which somehow was the highest grossing movie of that year. Fun fact. I don't think we mention that fact once in this episode. We should have.

Die Hard (Episode 03)
#3
10/25/2024

Everyone on the internet loves to make "Die Hard is a Christmas movie" a vital part of their personality. I mean, like, yeah, sure, it's a Christmas movie, and we talk about that a little bit. But what we're really here to talk about is feet.

Jurassic Park (Episode 02)
#2
10/11/2024

CJ and Tommy sit down to watch one of Tommy's favorites, "Jurassic Park". By the way, it's me Tommy writing this. Taking this moment to editorialize and say if you haven't seen Jurassic Park, go watch it. It's very good. Maybe watch it with the commentary track if you're feeling spicy.
