We're taking this elevator to New Mexico for a pitch session and convo all about a true cinematic sicko...Ari Aster. But we can't do it alone. We're joined by stand up comedian and known Aster skeptic Noah Marger to chat about the auteur of the abominable and his new immunocompromised film EDDINGTON. What worked? What didn't? Did Tanner play one of the Antifa militants? Did Tanner play all of them? These answers and more. Only on Ari Aster's Elevator Pitch.

Oh my lord...this elevator found its way to Metropolis. That's right. It's time to talk Superman. Was it good? Was it fine? And most importantly, what should its star DAVID CORENSWET do next? Because we think he is a star! So is Hoult! And Brosnahan! And Bradley---Actually I'll let you get there yourself. In the meantime, we've cranked up the thermostat and turned the mics on. Let's SWET.

The mics are on, the raptors are out of the cage and even worse...Tanner is back into the elevator. We're also joined by Matt's roommate, Sigma Chi Brother 4 Life, and known Reddit paleontologist Noah Paradise to chat about all things Jurassic Park. We start with the newest instillation, Jurassic World: Rebirth before finding our way back to the original three (19:18). Goldblum. Raptors. Michael Chrichton. Nick Van Owen. Nothing's off the table. We lick the damn bowl clean. Then we toss out some other lab disasters. What makes for a good science gone wrong movie? Let's find out. We're gonna pitch our own (49:19).

We finally saw F1 so it's time to box for a quick two hour pod and change the pitch oil. But first, shall we chat about the blockbuster hit and its star? Why not. After all it's none other than thief/hotel manager, fight club entrepreneur, old man baby, Oakland A's GM, stunt double, forgotten silent film-era star, fake Italian film star, spy gamer, and personal trainer...Brad Pitt. So up top is our F1 chat. What works and what...almost works. Then we go full Pitt. Lot's of Oceans Twelve. Some Moneyball. Maybe a little Allied if you're lucky (38:57). Then we have our first pitch conversation (1:23:27). We'll explain all that. It's different. It's fun. IT'S PITT.

It’s time again for Tanner to call the shots. He had once simple request. Pitch fake movies to the pride of Long Island, Alec Baldwin. We thought it’d be best to take this one to 1997, smack in the middle of his go at leading man status. The Hunt for Red October. The Getaway. Malice. The MF Edge. Who was this guy anyway??? (1:02:43) But first, a few pieces of movie news. We just gotta talk Denis Villenueve returning to Earth for James Bond (unless he goes Moonraker) and Sorkin’s Social Network Part II. It’s a loaded episode. Billy and Stevie Baldwin would be proud of it. 

Wow...We've been waiting for this one. It's finally time to talk Celine Song's Materialists, her matchmaking follow-up to 2023's Past Lives, starring Pedro Pascal, Chris Evans, and this week's guest...Dakota Johnson. She's running fashionably late to the elevator, so we've got plenty of time up top to chat through what's surely one of the more interesting movies you'll see this year. No spoilers but let's just say Celine Song's got us in a damn TIZZY. Then we chat through some other Dakota favorites of ours and how her off-kilter performance style has evolved over the years (36:14). Then we PITCH fake movies to Dakota in whatever year we want (58:58).

For the release of the Phoenician Scheme (and because there's no new episode) [and cause the Stanley Cup is happenin'] we're re-releasing last year's Wes Anderson pitch-off with Empty Netters hosts Dan and Chris Powers!!

It's getting HUMID in the elevator today. Cause we're talking Dazed. We're talking Jaws. We're talking Snack Shack. We're talking High School Musical 2. That's right. It's Summer Movie Week on Elevator Pitch. We chat through some of our favorites, what exactly defines a summer flick, and finally settle the debate on whether Anatomy of a Fall really qualifies. Then we piiiiiiitch two summer movies that damn well should be made tomorrow (1:00:42).

FINALLY....VIDEO EPISODES!

You're gonna need to trust us...for one last pod. It's finally Cruise week in the elevator. Nay...it's FUTURE CRUISE WEEK in the elevator. We're joined by comedian Ryan Goldsher to chat Mission Impossible: The Final Dead Reckoning Part 2 and pitch movies to the only professional pilot, spy, deep sea diver, free solo climber, pool shark --- you know what? This bit doesn't work for Cruise. Simply too many hits. That's why we'd like to figure out what's next for the eternal movie star. So join us for a meeting of the minds and a pitch session (01:07:22) for the ages.
