Episode 13 – BOND, JAMES BOND

Episode 13 – The James Bond Episode

Where Vic takes the lead (but not for long) and we get into talking about our love for the signature spy himself, 007 James Bond! From the books, the movies, the “classics” and how we were first exposed to them on commercial television all those years ago, to today’s films.

We also get into our thoughts on each of the actors who’ve played the legendary character, and the things that each actor brought to the character that made it great — we also talk about our favorite.

So much to talk about, so much Bond!

Episode 8: BATMAN v SUPERMAN III… or is it IV?
We promise this is the last podcast about this movie, even though we could do twenty more with ease. Yes, it’s just that bad! We do also review the Justice League trailer and show a glimmer of hope for that almost sure to be dud. Also, Dave reveals that it all goes back to that lost 80’s classic The Sword and the Sorcerer. If only all movies could be half as good.

Episode 7: BATMAN v SUPERMAN Part Deux
Is there no end? At two and a half hours it just feels that way. We continue our breakdown of the film but also find time to concentrate on the other past Batman films, in particular the Nolan trilogy. The comic book adventures of Batman are explored as well.

Episode 6 – Batman and Superman (lowercase)

Episode 6: Batman and Superman (lowercase)
Taking a break from the film, Vic and Dave talk Bats and Supes and their history/relationship. What makes them great and what we love about them. Why they’ve lasted so long and their cultural impact. And of course we continue to lament the horror that is their team up movie.

Episode 5 – BATMAN v SUPERMAN 

Episode 5: BATMAN v SUPERMAN
We breakdown the utter disaster that is BvS. The acting, the writing, the directing. You get the idea… even if the filmmakers didn’t. Taking a beat from MST3000 we play the film and discuss everything wrong with it. Good thing it’s a long podcast.

Episode 4 – Why Do We Love the Movies We Love?

Episode 4: Why Do We Love the Movies We Love?
What makes a movie great? Why do we watch certain films again and again? Listen and find out. We also dare to discuss our theory on what is funny and what makes comedy work. Is it “tragedy plus time”? And what exactly IS “Black Rain Syndrome”?

Episode 3 – Let’s Talk About Sequels

Episode 3: Let’s Talk About Sequels
Dave and Vic discuss Hollywood’s obsession with sequels, reboots and franchises. Also, books vs the movies that they’re based on and isn’t it just easier to watch the movie? Of course it is. Who has time to read?

Episode 2 – The State of Star Wars

Episode 2: The State of Star Wars
We discuss the current state of the Star Wars franchise and it’s future prospects without Mr Lucas’ involvement, why we love it so much, it’s influences on our lives and Dave gets upset when I suggest Star Wars is better than Empire.

Episode 1 – ROGUE ONE Review

Episode 1: ROGUE ONE Review

Two of our favorite things… movies and Star Wars. So what could be better than a new Star Wars movie?! We give our thoughts (months later) on the first stand alone Star Wars film and, as will be a running trend, we get sidetracked along the way in talking about films in general.
