On this week's Casting Cage episode, the guy's review 2003's Matchstick Men.  You've seen it, right? Ridley Scott flick, believe it or not. Yeah, Sam Rockwell is in it, too. It got 7.3/10 on IMDB and has a 83% score on Rotten Tomatoes...you sure you haven't seen it? No? Hmm. Well, neither had we, actually. Take that back, Bucky did see it a long time ago, but clearly forgot the plot, so...yeah. 

This week Fast Pitch gets weird with the title “The Light That Parents Tight.”

What starts as a baffling phrase turns into three wildly different movie pitches. Bucky delivers a twisted tale of overbearing parents who discover their kids reading a classic children’s book. Juicebox dives into a sci-fi/horror/love? story that explores how far new parents will go to fix a broken relationship. And Oldboy? He cashes in on a sequel to his earlier pitch, Shelter Our Darkness, Then Chicago.

Confusion. Chaos. Creativity. Welcome to Bucky’s Basement.

This week, the guys at Bucky's Basement review 2002's Adaptation for another Fast Pitch episode. Where to begin...it's a fictional film about real life screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, adapting real life novel, The Orchid Thief, for the big screen,  unsuccessfully... ? Yeah, we confused ourselves, too. Starring, Nic Cage in a dual role, Meryl Streep (she is hot), and the fabulous Chris Cooper (where do i know him from? He's the angry Dad in many a film).

This week on Bucky's Basement,  we have a Fast Pitch episode. The Sack giveth out the title "Many Imps." And Bucky is pissed because he doesn't know what an imp is.

On this week's episode of Casting Cage, the guys review John Woo's 2002 WWII epic, Windtalkers. Nic Cage plays a shell-shocked soldier tasked with guiding a Navajo code talker safely through the U.S. invasion of Saipan. Is one stab with a bayonet lethal? Is Peter Stormare's character secretly a foreign agent (that accent...)? And whatever the hell happened to Christian Slater?!!!! He's so cool!

On this week's Fast Pitch episode, the guys draw the title 'The Stairway Caller.' Does a title like that lend itself more to Paranormal Horror or Rom/Com? Listen to find out which direction Juicebox, Bucky, Oldboy, and ChatSmith take their movie pitches.

Bucky's Basement presents a unique episode of Casting Cage this week, where we review a film directed by Nicolas Cage: 2002's "Sonny" (Cage does cast himself an interesting minor role, one Acid Yellow, which we delve into). This film stars James Franco as the titular Sonny, a male prostitute in 1980's (?) New Orleans, pimped out by his mother, Jewel (played by Brenda Blethyn). There is a lot to unpack here. 

On this weeks episode of Fast Pitch:

Juicebox tries out his firecracker "mouth sounds"

Who are the biggest asshole drivers?   Nissan Altima vs Dodge Ram

The guys write a pitch for a movie titled "To, Again".

On this week's episode of Casting Cage, the guy's review the 2001 war epic: Captain Corelli's Mandolin. What's up with all these accents? Is mediocre Mandolin playing really a panty dropper? Would it be a better movie if Christian Bale and Nic Cage switched characters? Find the answers to all these burning questions and more only on Bucky’s Basement.

Welcome back to Bucky's Basement! This week we have a Fast Pitch episode where the title drawn is "Porsche Movie Night"! What was this week's sound effect performed by Juicebox? What mind bending genres did the guys Pitch? Did AI knock it out of the park or strike out again? Always unique. Always fresh. In 15 minutes or less - Only on Bucky’s Basement
