Forgotten Cinema

It's the 1980's. A Plane full of passengers has been taken hostage by terrorists. The one man who can save them?

CHUCK NORRIS.

That's right, the Mikes are discussing the 1986 film The Delta Force on this episode of Forgotten Cinema! Join Mike Butler and Mike Field as they gush over how well written and acted the first half of the movie is and then lament or celebrate how extremely cheesy the over the top corny 80's action is in the second half.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.

The Mikes are going back to the 70's to talk about aliens, Spielberg, and cliched dads on this episode of Forgotten Cinema!

Join Mike Butler and Mike Field as they discuss the 2011 film, "Super 8" from director JJ Abrams and produced by Steven Spielberg, starring Elle Fanning, Kyle Chandler, and Joel Courtney. The Mikes talk about this film being a direct homage to the 70/80's films by Spielberg, the lack of character journeys for many of the kids at the focus of the film, as well as big changes made to a key character in the film.

The Mike's gotta be brave, they gotta jump in... To this week's movie!!!

Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss brain clouds, existentialism, and volcanos during this look at the 1990 Tom Hanks film, also starring Meg Ryan and written and directed by John Patrick Shanley.

They'll talk the meanings and symbolisms that exist in nearly every frame of this film, the look of the film, and whether or not you can truly classify the film as straight-up comedy.

The Mikes are taking a look at the 1984 Academy Award winning film The Killing Fields starring Sam Waterson, Haing S. Ngor, and John Malcovich and directed by Roland Joffe.

This one covers some heavier topics, but ones that deserved to have light shed on them. Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss the very 70's style filmmaking on display and how it is used to great affect. They also talk about how Ngor deserved his Best Supporting Actor award and how he actually lived through some of the terrible events depicted in the film.

The Mikes are diving down into the oceans depths to bring you this "special edition" episode. And by special edition we mean James Cameron's The Abyss: Special Edition!!!!!!

Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss all the facts about the dangerous and stressful making of this film as well as why out of all director's cuts and special editions, this one is the one with the most importance on one's enjoyment of the film; as the theatrical version of The Abyss presents a meaningless and incoherent plot, lost to the cutting room floor for the sake of a specific runtime.
