  • We've Got Mail #39 | What's the Point of Buying Physical Media?

    It's an all-new episode of WE'VE GOT MAIL, the podcast where film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold answer YOUR letters!

    This week, Bibbs and Witney talk about the bizarre Brucesploitation genre, movies that actually play better at drive-in theaters, movies that were funnier when they were edited for TV, which public domain movies are worthwhile, and why it's still a good idea for people who really love movies to invest in physical media!

  • Critically Acclaimed #134 | Shelf Life, Bad Boys 4 Life, Bad Education, Onward, The Painted Bird, Marathon Man

    CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED is playing catch-up this week!

    Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold dig back into the rest of 2020 and review some of the biggest films they missed the first time around: BAD BOYS FOR LIFE, BAD EDUCATION and ONWARD! They also review the new release THE PAINTED BIRD and explore recently unearthed Paul Bartel movie SHELF LIFE, which is being released for the first time EVER after being finished over 25 years ago.

    And this week on THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED STREAMING CLUB, Bibbs and Witney try to keep pace with the classic thriller MARATHON MAN! It's a political thriller starring Dustin Hoffman, Roy Scheider, William Devane and Sir Laurence Olivier, about a history student who gets a lot of cardio, who also gets embroiled in a post-WWII conspiracy!

    Shelf Life - 3:41  Bad Boys for Life - 23:35  Bad Education - 46:51  Onward - 57:45  The Painted Bird - 1:10:25  Marathon Man - 1:25:07

  • Canceled Too Soon #193 | Commando Cody: Sky Marshal of the Universe (1953 or 1955)

    The jetpack-wearing superhero who inspired THE ROCKETEER made the jump from Republic movie serials to serialized television in the 1950s, but was COMMANDO CODY: SKY MARSHAL OF THE UNIVERSE a serial that aired on tv, or a tv show that played in theaters?

    And most importantly, was this imaginative early sci-fi adventure... CANCELED TOO SOON? William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold strap on their rocket-boosters and explore the history, the influence, the silliness, and sometimes the sleepy boredoms of COMMANDO CODY: SKY MARSHAL OF THE UNIVERSE!

  • The Iron List #9 | The Best 8th Movies in a Franchise!

    Every month on THE IRON LIST, the Patrons of the Critically Acclaimed Network get to pick a topic for a giant-sized episode! And this month we're delving deep into the realm of long-running film series, with an episode dedicated to THE BEST 8TH MOVIES IN A FRANCHISE!

    Join film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold as they highlight the films that came VERY late in a series and somehow still felt inspired, exciting, brilliant... or at least kinda entertaining!  And there's less overlap between their lists than you might think!
