Deathtrap (1982) - The Film with Three Brains Review
Superman sets aside his cape to prove his acting powers for this adaptation of a play about plays and murder. With an early death, numerous reversals, and enough weapons to make Chekhov choke, Sidney Lumet played it out differently than playwright Levin. Christopher Reeve and Michael Caine play cat and mouse in Deathtrap, while the Brains bust out their best yet.
Blade (1998) - The Film with Three Brains Review
Well before the box office dominance (or even existence) of the MCU, Wesley Snipes was kicking vampire ass as Marvel’s Blade. With apologies to Howard the Duck, this stylish flick was the first successful comic book movie not called Batman or Superman, and it paved the way for The Matrix, Underworld, and every other black leather and sunglass-clad action film to follow. Join the Brains as we ice
Weird Science (1987) - The Film with Three Brains Review
Two teenage dweebs create a beautiful woman with their computer, a la the Bride of Frankenstein.

David Fincher's follow-up to Se7en thinks outside the box with a head in it. Michael Douglas receives a mysterious gift from his brother (Sean Penn) that is either an elaborate game or just sophisticated phishing.

Travolta and Sam Jackson star as henchmen who shoot the breeze (and the occasional person) while running the crime boss's errands, in this eminently quotable black comedy.

Stranger Than Paradise (1984) - The Film with Three Brains Review
Jim Jarmusch gained accolades for showing the studio world that a movie can be just as slow, aimless, and infused with deadpan humor as real life—a notion embraced by the likes of Seinfeld, Wes Anderson—and that sometimes foible and folly reveal as much about the human condition as flashy narrative thread. Listen to how the Brains see everything in black and white--they've 'put a spell on you!'
Edward Scissorhands (1990) - The Film with Three Brains Review
Tim Burton siphoned the sentiment of his oddball childhood into the fairytale of Edward Scissorhands: a teenage creation with scissors for hands who struggles to fit into a suburban world that is both amazed and frightened by him.

Wonder Boys (2000) - The Film with Three Brains Review
More aptly titled “Weekend at the English Professor's," this deadpan comedy is also a quirky drama satirizing the literary sphere within academia.
