Cinema Royale episodes

  • Talking 'F9' And Justice For Han, 'The Ice Road', 'Loki', and Canon Films
    This week on Cinema Royale we check the latest 1/4 mile time with F9, the latest in the Fast & Furious franchise, and just end up missing Gal Gadot’s Giselle. *sniff* Please come back, Giselle! Then we ponder how Liam Neeson is still a believable action star in his 70’s in The Ice Road which leads us down the road of a fun Canon Films retrospective that shouldn’t be missed! Last but certainly not least we talk about Loki‘s big revelation just in time for Pride month!

  • Talking ‘Fatherhood’, ‘Luca’, ‘Werewolves Within’, ‘Transformers 7’, & More
    This week on Cinema Royale the guys dive into Kevin Hart’s tear-jerking dramatic turn in Fatherhood, then head to animated Italy with Pixar’s latest, Luca. Plus a brief look at horror-comedy Werewolves Within with Sam Richardson and Milana Vayntrub. Plenty of news to bound about this week as we get into the new trailer for The Suicide Squad, the announcement of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and everything else that piqued our interest!

  • Talking ‘In The Heights’, ‘Infinite’, ‘The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard’, And What’s A “Blockbuster Burrito”?
    This week on Cinema Royale we are partying in the streets of NYC with Lin Manuel Miranda’s love letter to Washington Heights, In the Heights. Then Travis and John just get more confused trying to understand the plot of Paraount+’s Antoine Fuqua/Mark Whalberg action flick, Infinite. To round out the reviews the guys try to figure out what a movie needs to be to qualify as good as Travis uses his ‘Burrito’ analogy to review The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard.

    Plus our thoughts on the Masters of the Universe: Revelation trailer, new She-Hulk casting, Liam Neeson returning as Qui-Gon Jinn, and a possible Kingpin sequel!

    All of this and more!

  • Talking ‘The Conjuring 3’, ‘Loki’, Namor Casting, And A Trashing Of ‘Jupiter’s Legacy’
    It’s a week of diverting blame and mischief as we talk through the newest foray into the weird and sometimes wicked lives of Ed and Lorraine Warren with The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. Then it’s on to the last stop on the train to the next major MCU release with the first two episodes of Loki!. All this and much more, including Namor’s debut in Black Panther 2, and a thorough trashing of Jupiter’s Legacy…we like to kick things while they’re down.

  • Talking ‘A Quiet Place Part II’, ‘Cruella’, Amazon/MGM, JJ Abrams ‘Star Wars’ Plan, & More
    On this week’s Cinema Royale, we’re talking the triumphant premiere of A Quiet Place Part II and its impact on the box office. But does John Krasinski’s long-awaited sequel make as much noise as the first? Plus, Disney’s latest reclamation project Cruella has Emma Stone as the iconic 101 Dalmatians villain, but should you care about her origin story?

    All of this, plus our thoughts on the huge Amazon acquisition of MGM, JJ Abrams’ thoughts on Star Wars and its lack of planning, Henry Cavill in Highlander, Aaron Taylor-Johnson back with Marvel, and much more!

    On this week’s Cinema Royale, we’re joined by Scott Menzel of We Live Entertainment to rave about Zack Snyder’s anticipated Zombie heist film Army of the Dead, and talk about the future of it as a Netflix franchise. Plus, the latest ScreenLife thriller Profile made quite an impression, and so did The Woman in the Window and Spiral: Saw but not in the same way. Finally, Angelina Jolie returns to action in the fiery Those Who Wish Me Dead!

    All this plus more on Dave Bautista’s comments about Marvel, Knives Out 2, and that’s not even everything.

  • Talking Without Remorse, The Mitchells Vs The Machines The Bad Batch and Marvel's Upcoming Slate
    It’s Michael B. Jordan, Robot overlords and clone commandos! On the latest episode, the latest Tom Clancy thriller Without Remorse is the most badass Michael B. Jordan yet…right? We’ll talk about if this is the start of a new franchise for him. Plus, is Netflix’s The Mitchells vs. The Machines the best animated film since Into the Spider-Verse? Also, we’ve got the first episodes of Star Wars series The Bad Batch, and Marvel dropped a ton of news on their future, so we’ve gotta dig through that.

  • Talking The Oscars, ‘Mortal Kombat’ And The Mind-Blowing ‘Falcon And The Winter Soldier’ Finale
    First of all, we apologize for the audio problems in the second half of this episode and will fix them for next week!

    This week we drop into the Netherrealm to battle with the latest adaptation of the iconic video game, Mortal Kombat. The fights not over there, we slap on some wings to check in with the finale of the amazing The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. It came too soon, but did it pack the punch? And what should we expect out of Captain America 4?

    Plus we give our thoughts on what went right and what went spectacularly wrong with this year’s Oscars! Who won the office Oscars pool, anyway? Do we even have an Oscars pool?

  • Talking All Marvel With ‘Falcon And The Winter Soldier’, ‘Shang-Chi’, And ‘Secret Invasion’
    Marvel has taken over Cinema Royale this week! We talk about the penultimate episode of Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and whine about it ending so damn soon! Plus, we look at that awesome Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings trailer, the incredible Secret Invasion casting, and more. There’s so much we totally forgot to do what we were supposed to do this episode and that’s select the video games we want turned into movies. Oops!

  • Talking ‘Thunder Force’, ‘Voyagers’, And Captain America Goes To The Dark Side!
    This week on Cinema Royale we intend to make it short and sweet, and fail miserably as we always do. It’s not our fault, Wrestlemania and Colin Farrell distracted us! Other than that we cover reviews of the Lord of the Flies in space sci-fi film Voyagers, Netflix’s plus-sized superhero comedy Thunder Force with Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer, and that AMAZING episode 4 of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier!
