You'll hear us talk about or favorite and most hated episodes from the last 100, we talk about the complete bullshit of movie window jumping, and we all wish we had our own theme song that plays when we walk.

MPM: Ep. 298 - Die Hardware Store
The Equalizer | The Bone Collector - Hey everyone! Welcome to another episode of Motion Picture Meltdown! This February we've decided to start our annual MPM Black History Month. We've never never been shy of diversity, but we want to dedicate this month every year to some of the best actors, movies, and genres in black historic film. This week, Phil picks a couple of movies with one of the greatest actors ever, and the most Oscar nominated black actor, Denzel Washington! Phil picks a couple films we're less familiar with and we go through The Equalizer an The Bone Collector. In this episode, we talk about which black actor we'd love to murder people with, we talk about how doing the same crimes from a book isn't that original, and we think Cheats is mildly obsessed with Ed O'neil. Enjoy!
