Welcome to Whine And A Movie! I'm A.J. And I'm Aleigh. And in our podcast we invite you to watch a movie we've seen dozens of times, we drink wine, and we talk through the entire movie because it's what we do best. You'll get a full review of the movie and the wine that we pair it with. So come and watch with us! But be a dear and only have wine if you're of legal age in your respective region.

We've been on an extended break, but we're back...and we're watching "Can't Hardly Wait." It's a teen comedy from 1998 that features seemingly almost every young actor of the era: Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ethan Embry, Charlie Korsmo, Lauren Ambrose, Seth Green, Clea DuVall, Selma Blair, Melissa Joan Hart, etc., etc., etc. If you know any of these people you have to watch it. Watching it is a little…
Welcome to That Damned Book Club. We're searching for our new favorite horror novel. We do some research to find a new book for each episode, and just like a book club we talk through the book from cover to cover. We're talking themes, character development, writing style, full on nonsense. Read the book for each episode and come join the club! Find us wherever you get your podcasts.
This is a new view for A.J. and a repeat for Aleigh. We watch "Ready or Not," a 2019 thriller starring Samara Weaving, not Margot Robbie. It's a fun little romp where a rich family tries to kill their newest member in a game of hide and seek. So cute. We pair it with a lovely 2021 Zinfandel appropriately called Hunted. Metacritic Score: 64/100 Movie Sync Notes: We watch "Ready or Not" on Amazon…
This episode we dip into the not-so-kid-friendly children's movie "Coraline." Such a good book and such a good movie. It's so creepy and is exactly like the kinds of movies we grew up with. We honestly had no idea so many well known actors lent their voices to this project. We pair it with Melodramatic Macabre, a rich red blend that we thoroughly enjoyed. Metacritic Score: 80/100 Movie Sync Notes:…
We honestly can't remember the last time we watched an Angelina Jolie movie. "Wanted" is a fun one. It mixes a great cast (who are honestly better than this movie gives them credit for) and smashes them into a 2000s-style wild action movie that has a handful of mystery. And exploding rats. We pair it with Threadcount red blend. It goes with the story. We promise. Metacritic Score: 64/100 Movie…
We're closing out the Scream saga (again) with "Scream 6." Woooo! We really enjoyed the previous installment, so why not keep going? We are both watching it for the first time so anything can happen. In keeping with tradition, we pair it with 19 Crimes Martha's Chard. It's a bit of a standard chardonnay, but for a such a big brand 19 Crimes knows what they're doing. Metacritic Score: 61/100 Movie…
Ok, so we're watching "The House Bunny" this episode and we didn't realize how many people were actually in this movie. Anna Faris, Emma Stone, Colin Hanks, Kat Dennings, Rumer Willis, Kathatine McPhee, and there are more. It's a cute little comedy that has more heart than you would think based on the trailer and promotional material. Plus, Faris always delivers in this type of comedy. We pair it…
Kevin Williamson is at it again...getting teens killed by an over the top serial killer out in the middle of nowhere. This time it's in "I Know What You Did Last Summer," one of the more big-name teen slasher films of the late 90s/early 2000s era. The cast is chock full of popular actors of the time that appeared in a number of other movies together. They were almost a brat pack of the late 90s.…
This week we watch the original "Saw." This movie has had a huge impact on the horror genre. Sure, the acting isn't amazing, but the ideas are big and they pay off. I feel like this movie may have been the the prime reason for the popularity of escape rooms. We pair it with Jigsaw Pinot Noir. It really just went and fell into our laps. Work smarter, not harder. Metacritic Score: 46/100 Movie Sync…
We're not sure if anyone other than us remembers "Heartbreakers," so obviously it's right on brand for the pod. It tells the age old story of a mother and daughter who make a living swindling men out of money by pretending to fall in love with them. Along the way they get into a bunch of zany shenanigans. Clearly the pinnacle of Sigourney Weaver's career. We pair it with The Velvet Devil Merlot…
