The Last Duel (2021) Nov 03, 2021

Show notes

The Last Duel has been mostly pleasing critics, and it might please audiences if they were going out to see it, but it has been a big flop so far. We discuss some reasons why that might be after giving our opinion on Ridley Scott's latest work.

Jaws (1975) Oct 27, 2021

Show notes

Here's another petrifying prestige film… Jaws. Author Peter Benchley and director Steven Spielberg team up to put you off visiting the beach for a good long time. Does JAWS hold up? Or does the rubber shark effects make it feel safe to get back into the water. Check out the podcast to find out.

Psycho (1960) Oct 20, 2021

Show notes

There's almost certainly nothing left to say about a 60+ year old movie from the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, but that won't stop us from saying our piece. If you haven't seen Psycho, it's absolutely worthy of a watch. If you have seen it, join us for a podcast that attempts to properly appreciate the cinematic mastery on display.

Mulholland Drive (2001) 20th Anniversary re-release Oct 19, 2021

Show notes

Oh boy… What can I say about this week’s big anniversary that won’t piss off the general public who apparently respects and admires the works of David Lynch? Well, I can say that we’re re-releasing our podcast on Mulholland Drive for its 20th anniversary. I can also say that the opinions expressed in the podcast are now 5 years old and I’ve seen exactly 1 David Lynch movie that I’ve enjoyed in that time.

But hey, A.Ron's here too, and he loved it. From the weird dumpster monsters to the strange musical interludes, he's down to clown on any wavelength Lynch chooses to broadcast. At least half the podcast will be from that perspective.

So enjoy this now-20-year-old movie and what we had to say about it 5 years ago.

Training Day (2001) Oct 11, 2021

Show notes

It's the 20th anniversary of Training Day and while we had no fewer than 3 big anniversaries this week, we managed to get to them all in due time. This is the only role that Denzel Washington has won an academy award in a leading role for, which seems crazy, I know! But it's pretty well-deserved as he and Ethan Hawke carry this movie. Without either of these performances, the movie wouldn't work. Join us for the podcast to hear our thoughts on this early 2000s dirty cop drama.

The Many Saints of Newark (2021) Oct 07, 2021

Show notes

The Many Saints of Newark exists as several movies in one, trying to be something more than just a Sopranos prequel, and ultimately doesn't excel at anything except casting. If you're a die-hard fan of The Sopranos, you'll definitely want to check it out, as it sheds new light on the events and relationships of the series. If you're a fan of gangster movies, you might want to check it out after you've watched all of the many other, much better gangster movies. If you're neither, why are you even here?

That Thing You Do (1996) Oct 04, 2021

Show notes

It’s the 25th anniversary of That Thing You Do! It’s a whirlwind movie about the rise and fall of a fake 1950s pop band that popped right out of the Beatles mold. A bunch of young 90s names including Liv Tyler, Steve Zahn, Tom Everett Scott, and Charlize Theron are all wrangled by a very serious, but likeable Tom Hanks. We both love this movie and it’s a ton of fun so check out the podcast.

The Departed (2006) Sep 29, 2021

Show notes

The Departed is one of the Scorsese movies that A.Ron and I most overlooked on first viewing. I had some inkling that it was good, but I couldn't say why. After watching it 15 years later, we both got it. There's a complex game of cat and mouse hidden under all those Boston accents and, despite clocking in at over 2.5 hours, it maintains the tension throughout. Join us on the podcast for a discussion of The Departed.

Moneyball (2011) Sep 21, 2021

Show notes

Moneyball is our Prestige movie this week thanks to it being the 10th anniversary of its release as well as a pretty solid movie about a subject that most movies wouldn't dare approach. Join us for a discussion about Jonah Hill, Brad Pitt, and the statistical analysis that changed baseball.

2001: A Space Odyssey Sep 21, 2021

Show notes

If you've seen it, you probably understand why we categorize 2001: A Space Odyssey as a prestige film. Yes, it takes place almost entirely in space. Yes, it has spaceships and aliens and wormholes. But it’s just so dang good that it deserves better than to be lumped in with the likes of pulpier sci-fi, like, say, an Armageddon. Thanks to Dr. John for commissioning this podcast on one of Stanley Kubrick's most celebrated films. We hope you enjoy.
