Are You Screening? Podcast

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review Black or White, Mortdecai, and offer up our 3rd annual Can't Win Awards!

We were forced to miss last week, but we're making it up by showing up on SuperBowl Sunday. We're reviewing Kevin Costner's Black or White, Johnny Depp's Mortdecai, and we're finally getting to our yearly award show.

Our Can't Win Awards, for the uninitiated, are the awards we give out to those who just aren't going to get nominated and/or win any of the "real" awards. The unsung directors, or actors who are in films that aren't going to get noticed.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critics, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, follow up their Best of the Year list with the Worst Movies of the Year!

We'll also be talking about last week's Critics' Choice Movie Awards, Oscar snubs, listener questions, and we may even have time to review a movie, probably Selma, if we still have room to move after all that.

Listen in and find out what you did well to avoid this year!

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA film critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review Taken 3 and offer up their Best Movie of the Year lists.

We'll let you know if the third time around can possibly turn into something interesting for Liam Neeson's continually aging action hero, and we're going to give you our picks for the best films of the year just before the Critics' Choice Movie Awards hit.

If you're a long-time listener, you know that our lists don't often match up with everyone else's, and we like it that way. Tune in to see if your favorites made our list.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA film critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review Unbroken, catch up with some more films from 2014 - like Foxcatcher and Boyhood, and share their most anticipated movies coming in 2015 (because a listener asked them to).

We'll let you in on Angelina Jolie's directing effort, and let you know if some more of 2014's films that are getting a lot of attention are really worth your time

We're wrapping up the year in film and reviewing The Imitation Game, Into the Woods, and probably a lot of other things. We'll be talking awards, the best films, the worst films, upcoming shows, and what's hitting in the year ahead.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review a slew of movies coming your way before the end of the year, and talk about the Golden Globes and Critics' Choice Movie Awards nominations.

We'll be covering at least - Into the Woods, American Sniper, Big Eyes, The Imitation Game, and Birdman, and we'll probably throw in a few more as well.

We'll also be leading in to our best and worst of the year lists, and answer listener questions.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review Inherent Vice, The Homesman, & Life Partners.

We're kicking off the countdown to award season, and we've got three big movies this week. Inherent Vice is set to stir things up like crazy, and we'll let you know if it's worth all the hype that will certainly be surrounding this one.

We'll also have some interview clips from the cast and crew of these films, and we'll be answering listener questions.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review Horrible Bosses 2 and Foxcatcher.

Expectations for Horrible Bosses 2 will rightfully be all over the place, but Foxcatcher has managed a lot of interesting reactions from festival screenings. The story might be an odd one, and if you know it, you may wonder if you need a film version of the crazy, but we'll let you know if this one is the must-see critics are describing.

AreYouScreening.com and BFCA critic, Marc Eastman, and co-host extraordinaire, Shane Leonard, review The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.

It's obviously the thing everyone has been waiting for, and there's no avoiding the box office numbers this one is going to deliver, but is it really worth it? We were impressed with the first two, but is translating the third book into two movies going to work? Or, is this just the beginning of a two movie money grab of the latest franchise that happens to get people in theaters? 

We'll let you know if you need to get to this one, and answer listener questions. We'll also keep you up on what's coming your way, and the upcoming award season
