  • Good Time (2017)
    Assholes can fuck everything up and they can also genuinely love their brother. Today’s entry in month’s theme of ASSHOLES ON FILM is the hectic crime drama “Good Time” by Josh & Benny Safdie and stars Robert Pattinson, Benny Safdie & Jennifer Jason Leigh. That security guard will never be right again. They poured so much liquid acid into that guy’s mouth, dude. That’s insane. I’d try it. I’m trying to sell my dad’s motorcycle if you know anybody that would be interested. It’s the kind with the handle bars up really high. We can meet up at the K-Mart on Long Hollow. You can look at it. You can test drive it while I ride the back. My arms around you, of course.

  • The Good, The Bad And The Ugly (1966)
    We’re finishing up our viewing of Sergio Leone’s Man With No Name/Dollars Trilogy for our month’s theme of ASSHOLES ON FILM and we’ve already established that Clint Eastwood’s character of The Man With No Name is a little over the middle of the asshole scale. Bounty hunting and senseless egg yolk breaking make him a contender but probably the least assholey of all the assholes featured in our selections. But this movie is more than just a “Clint Eastwood” movie. This movie is pretty much stolen by Eli Wallach’s depiction of Tuco Pacifico and Tuco is the asshole we’re concentrating on for the 1966 Sergio Leone classic “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”. Fantastic characters and Incredible moments that are a little bit cluttered amongst the backdrop of the U.S. Civil War which has, perhaps, moved vaguely more west than we might have originally known. It was fun as hell watching the Sergio Leone movies that redefined westerns. Hear us discuss his final, and most prolific, of the trilogy.

  • Inside Llewyn Davis (2013)
    For this month’s theme of ASSHOLES ON FILM it’s important that we touch base on assholery amongst artistry. We’re discussing the show’s very first Coen Brother’s film that we recently caught up with for the first time. We’re talking the Coen’s 2013 film “Inside Llewyn Davis” starring Oscar Isaac in a breakout role as a struggling folk musician in the early sixties on the cusp of the Dylan explosion. He’s gonna lose your cat, he may or may not knock you up and his assholery is in good company amongst the industry he struggles to break out in. Emotionally unresolved issue don’t help either. Greenwich Village is looking strange and sad.

  • The Sword Of Doom (1966)
    This month is ASSHOLES ON FILM for our theme and we’re keeping it vintage this midweek as we explore a Samurai classic that was actually considered a big flop and all production of a follow up ceased after it’s release. Perhaps the Japanese film goers at the time didn’t appreciate Kihachi Okamoto’s interpretation of a popular serialized story but the tale of the stone cold killer, Ryonusuke, stood the test of time as one of the Samurai genre’s most compelling features. We’re talking the 1966 classic “THE SWORD OF DOOM” starring Tatsuya Nakadai, Michiyo Aratama & Toshiro Mifune. Don’t expect much honor in this tale but you might find it to be an intoxicating study in evil.

  • For A Few Dollars More (1965)
    Our vintage selections for our ASSHOLES ON FILM theme this month involve Sergio Leone’s MAN WITH NO NAME Trilogy and this follow up to the breakout hit maybe has our lowest grade asshole this month but Clint did break that telegraph operators egg yolk and you just don’t do that. We’re talkin’ the 1965 spaghetti western “For a Few Dollars More” starring Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Clef, Gian Maria Volonte and motherfucking Klaus Kinski. The budget is doubled, the music gets a little more orchestral and the pockets of The Man With No Name swell even more. After a bunch of dudes die, of course.

  • Barry Lyndon (1975)
    It’s ASSHOLES ON FILM month and should it be a surprise that a month full of main character assholes are also some very beloved and well regarded movies? We finally catch up to watching one of Lord Stanley’s films and it also happens be Bob’s favorite of his movies. Those interested in such things are well aware and much has been said of it over the years. We discuss one of our favorite movie assholes ever in Stanley Kubrick’s 1975 masterpiece, “Barry Lyndon” starring Ryan O’Neal, Marisa Berenson, Leon Vitali and many more. How did the typical small town Irish boy find himself amongst the pomp of nobility and how did it all fall apart? Iconic shots, perfectly patient, revolutionary lighting, amazing costuming, art inspired and hilariously vacant in expression. Except for that one sniveling boy lord. What more can be said on it? Hear us out and revel with us.

  • Tammy (2014)
    It’s MOVIE ROULETTE REVIEW time! Angela selected from a hat the category “Tammy” and, sure enough, we landed on the 2014 comedy “Tammy” starring Melissa McCarthy and directed by her husband Ben Falcone. This comedy was actually a hit, believe it or not! It’s only hard to believe because, while it did do well at the box office, nobody seems to speak of this movie. It’s star studded (Susan Sarandon, Toni College, Allison Janney, Mark Duplass, Dan Ackroyd, Sandra Oh, Kathy Bates) but it gets no lip service! We have no problem telling you why. This movie was intended to be some kind of in-show bit where we watch it over and over and over but…well…

  • A Fistful Of Dollars (1964)
    ASSHOLES ON FILM is our theme this month and our Monday vintage selections will be westerns. We will be featuring an iconic trilogy in the “spaghetti” kind of western. We’re discussing Sergio Leone’s MAN WITH NO NAME films starting with the 1964 hit that put Clint Eastwood on the map, “A Fistful of Dollars” which is really just a western remake of Akira Kurosawa’s “Yojimbo” that was release the previous year. The Man with No Name strolls into a troubled town of two feuding factions and leaves it bloodier and more abandoned than it was before. His pockets a little bit faster. Hear us speak of the iconic films of Sergio Leone today and throughout the month!

  • In Bruges (2008)
    NEW MONTH. NEW THEME. We’re pumped for September’s theme as we dive into some films that truly embody the nature of “the asshole”. ASSHOLES ON FILM is what we’re slipping into and we’re starting off with a movie chock full of assholes. Brimming with asshole cunts. We’re discussing Martin McDonagh’s worthy 2008 debut film “In Bruges” starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson. Two hitmen are ordered to go to Bruge, Belgium and they’re not sure why. One is enjoying the town and the other hates it. It’s violent as hell and quite funny. Check it out first of you’re curious. We’re starting off ASSHOLES ON FILM with a gauntlet. A gauntlet of…assholes. I don’t know. They pay me to type out these episode descriptions for them. The only thing is, I’m not allowed to type them at home. I have to go to this warehouse in North Nashville. There’s a desk with an old laptop on it and only one working overhead lamp. Sometimes you hear what sounds like someone just outside hitting the ground with a chain. I’m not great at it but it’s easy money. It pays my tv and streaming bill.

  • X - Men (2000)
    APOLOGIES FOR THE MICROPHONE DISTORTION IN THIS EPISODE. We cut out several minutes with way too much static but what is left is audible and is what we were able to salvage. Apologies again for the obnoxious pops. We think we fixed the issue for next time.
    Goodbye ADOLESCENT POWER FANTASY. You were an interesting theme this month. We say goodbye with a movie that was highly anticipated and we credit this as the first real seal coming off of the era of superhero domination. Good or ill. We were so young when we went to see this movie in theaters in the summer of 2000. We still had them dang towers! We’re discussing “X-Men” by the controversial director and alleged boy groper, Bryan Singer. This stars a very well cast Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen and is Hugh Jackman’s breakout role. It’s a fun movie with a lot of ups and downs and we go out on the big screen mutants and get ready for our next insufferable theme. GOODBYE ADOLESCENT POWER FANTASY.
