Pure Country (1992)

The Shat Crew trades leather jackets for Stetsons and arena rock for steel guitars with George Strait's acting debut, Pure Country. Commissioned by listener Frank Fall, this 1992 romantic drama follows country superstar "Dusty" Chandler, who's grown tired of the smoke, lasers, and screaming crowds. Disappearing from the spotlight, Dusty sets out to rediscover the joy of music—and maybe find love—while keeping his identity a secret.

While Big D marvels at the film's unapologetic sincerity and old-school values, Gene wrestles with whether Dusty's "just folks" routine is genuine or a branding exercise. From ponytails to denim tuxedos, the crew dives into the movie's nostalgic Americana and debates whether its soundtrack is the true star.

Is Pure Country a sweet, wholesome reminder of sticking to your roots, or is it just a two-hour George Strait music video? Grab your Wranglers, crack open a cold one, and find out.

Plot Summary:
In Pure Country, country music superstar Dusty Chandler grows disillusioned with the flashy trappings of fame and vanishes from the spotlight. Returning to his Texas roots under the radar, he rediscovers the simple joys of performing and falls for a local woman who doesn't recognize him. But as love blooms, Dusty must choose between the quiet life he's found and the career waiting for him.

Braveheart (1995)

Braveheart (1995)

Premature kilts, revised history, foppish Brits, Crossfit Scots, a 40-year-old Mel Gibson, a hot 9-year-old princess, undying love, and a romance nobody wanted to see. "Braveheart" brought a new degree of violence and complexity to the historical action genre and made 3 hours fly by. Don't miss Roger Roeper's triumphant and sexually-charged return to Shat The Movies, Big D's baffling discussion of black eyes, and Gene's uncomfortably intimate recollections of his high school science teacher.

Timecop (1994)

Timecop (1994)

Laughable wardrobes, finding excuses for Jean Claude Van Damme to kick things, gratuitous Belgian sex, gratuitous Belgian sax, an avalanche of one-liners, massive plot holes and The Splits Over Troubled Waters ... it's Timecop! Gene gets deep into physics and time travel theory. Kerri eviscerates the previously unknown "Timecop is like Blade Runner" crowd, and Big D perfect YET ANOTHER action star accent.

Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Soundtrack of the gods, camel-punching, surprise romance, imperfect allies, meaty snakes, cannibalistic orgies, and a unanimous Shat Score. Conan The Barbarian often is lumped in the same shitpile as other fantasy movies, including its sequel, but this abused gem gets nearly everything right. Hear all the reasons to love this not-quite-blockbuster underdog, including its strange literary origins and historical references, and learn just how dangerous this movie was to make. Big D impersonates Arnold Schwarzenegger during climax. Kerri Gross endorses Conan from a feminist's perspective, and Gene struggles to keep it together.

Casino (1995)

Casino (1995)

A sparkling Sharon Stone, labyrinth storylines, crappy explosions, loud suits, popping eyeballs, James Woods pimpin', and a Joe Pesci blowjob? When you want it all, "Casino" delivers. And it takes 3 tectonic hours to do it. Guest host Kerri Gross lends a female touch (sorta), encourages domestic violence (sorta), and tells us about the one time she put a glass pipe where glass pipes shouldn't go. Gene counters with a tale of his "gooch" and laments the loss of a Robert DeNiro in his prime. Big D has no idea how to pronounce "Goodfellas."

Flatliners (1990)

Flatliners (1990)

"Med students explore to see what might lie beyond death" might be the advertisement, but what we got was the old bait-and-switch. Instead of that exploration, Flatliners gives us pseudo-Freudian analysis delivered by 1990's Brat Pack 2.0... all of which we found surprisingly enjoyable.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

Did you know 1990's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was the highest grossing independent film of all time? It was. Did you know creature master Jim Henson lent his magic to the film? He did? Did you know this is one of the most clever films ever written, inspiring countless other comic book movies? That one's debatable.
