You didn't mean to feel good… but here you are.

We accidentally stumble into one of the ultimate ‘90s holiday comfort movies: The Cutting Edge (1992)—the ice-cold rom-sports classic that gave us underdogs on skates, enemies-to-partners tension, and the most iconic toe pick in cinema history.

Johnny breaks down how a temperamental figure-skating ice queen and a washed-up hockey bruiser accidentally melt each other’s hearts on the road to Olympic gold—despite neither actor knowing how to skate before filming, a fractured ankle mid-shoot, and sequels so bad the original stars wanted nothing to do with them.

Along the way, we cover:

• Why The Cutting Edge is secretly one of the most relatable working-class sports movies ever

• Factory jobs, bar work, and surviving the “two years later” grind

• Moira Kelly’s chaotic injury run and near-miss with A League of Their Own

• Why figure skating partnerships are way more intimate than anyone admits

• A full compare-and-contrast with Blades of Glory, aka when parody cranked the Pamchenko Twist up to a homicidal Iron Lotus

• Holiday feel-good vibes that don’t ignore sadness—because that’s how emotions actually work

• Deja vu, time not being linear, and why quantum physics may be punching holes in your childhood memories

Plus: movie news, chaotic Seinfeld staff picks (yes, Puerto Rican Day counts), fan-service ranting, and a tease for our upcoming Christmas episode.

So lace up, grab some sequins, and remember:
This movie walked so Blades of Glory could figure-skate into a flaming dumpster.

It’s eggnog season—and not just any nog. We’re talking Golden Egg Nog from the old Hood milk mafia, the stuff thick enough to count as a sin. Perfect time for a feel-good movie, right?

Johnny Spoiler dives into one of the most unexpectedly uplifting movies of the last few years: TETRIS (2023). Yes, the movie about the video game. Yes, it’s WAY better than it has any right to be.

• The true story of Henk Rogers, Nintendo’s ride-or-die dealmaker who bet everything on a block-stacking dream.

• The real “Tetris Effect” and why the game showed up in players’ dreams for decades.

• How Tetris became the best-selling video game of all time (until Minecraft pulled a power move).

• The wild rights battle involving Nintendo, Atari, Mirrorsoft, and Soviet bureaucracy.

• Why Taron Egerton continues to own the “real-guy-in-a-crazy-situation” movie niche.

• Our favorite retro shoutouts: Game Boy, Ninja Turtles arcade, Mario 3, Chrono Trigger, Star Fox, Final Fantasy VII, and more.

• And of course: one of the best post-2000 movie mustaches ever filmed.

• Ansel Elgort & Shirley MacLaine team up for the road-trip comedy Lucy Boomer.

• An 80s-style action thriller incoming: Trial By Combat from Renny Harlin & Aaron Eckhart.

• Mattel is making… a View-Master movie?! Let’s speculate wildly.
