Hot Tub Time Machine (2010)
This movie is somehow one of the most emotionally sincere movies ever made about time travel. It was one of those low expectation, sneaky good comedies of the 2000s that you likely skipped at first because of the title. When you finally gave it a shot, it blew your expectations out of the water. It explores the dangers of resigned complacency and revisiting nostalgia and we are wondering if it still holds up. We are of course talking about 2010’s Hot Tub Time Machine •0:00:00 - Introductions •0:04:00 - Memories of first viewing •0:07:00 - Pertinent movie details •0:11:30 - Critical and fan reviews •0:21:00 - Scene by scene breakdown •1:32:00 - Modern day ratings —————————————————————— SPONSORS- **BIG GROVE- Check out our beers of the episode here- http://BigGrove.com —————————————————————— **Support us at http://patreon.com/confusedbreakfast for bonus weekly episodes, voting on upcoming movies, giving your modern-day ratings on our movies and much more. **Mail us something The Confused Breakfast PO Box 10016 Cedar Rapids, IA 52402-9802 Special thanks to our executive producers- Josh Miller, Starling, Dylan Mick and NicMad.

Jack Frost (1998)
Today we are talking about the movie Jack Frost. No, not the 1997 horror-slasher flick. This is the other horror movie about the Dad that dies and comes back to life as a snowman. Instead of righting his wrongs and giving his family an explanation about the afterlife, he just decides to completely ignore his grieving hot wife, start talking in cheesy catch-phrases and only worry about teaching his son how to shoot a hockey puck.
