August 07, 2018Meanderings #128: "Avengers: Infinity War" -- Does Thanos Destroy Hollywood?"Avengers: Infinity War" is out on Blu-ray next week, and that means it's time for us to sit down and talk about the MCU once more. Has this monolithic connected universe changed Hollywood, and if so, has it done it for the better or for the worse? Oh, and is "Infinity War" any good?...more6minPlay
July 31, 2018Meanderings #127: The New "Overboard" and the NothingburgerA likable cast and an enjoyable soundtrack isn't enough to make 2018's "Overboard" a good movie. On the other hand, there's really nothing there to make it a bad movie either. It just kind of blah. It is the sort of movie that makes Josh utilize one of his new least favorite words/phrases: nothingburger (or nothing burger or nothing-burger, if you prefer)....more6minPlay
July 10, 2018Meanderings #126: Shhh... It's "A Quiet Place"If Josh created a list of his favorite films for the first half of 2018, "A Quiet Place" would definitely make the cut. A smart, stripped down horror tale of a family trying to survive a monster apocalypse, the John Krasinski directed movie shows the importance not just of visuals in storytelling but of sound design as well....more6minPlay
July 03, 2018Meanderings #125: The Wondrousness of "Mission: Impossible"For 22 years, Tom Cruise has been playing Ethan Hunt and as we gear up for the latest installment in the "Mission: Impossible" franchise to be released later this month, it is time to take a look back at the first five movies. Plus we toss in a little Jack Reacher as well, because the first of those movies, along with "M:I" are now all out on 4K UHD....more6minPlay
June 26, 2018Meanderings #124: The Disappointment of "Acrimony"Tyler Perry's "Acrimony," the latest from the prolific writer-director, is now out on Blu-ray. If you've seen the ads for the film, you're going to go into it expecting a certain kind of story. What you're going to get, however, is something entirely different. Are there any takeaways there? You bet there are! ...more6minPlay
June 19, 2018Meanderings #123: "The Death of Stalin" in the 21st CenturyArmando Iannucci's "The Death of Stalin" doesn't only have things to say about the death of Stalin, but modern day political struggles as well. While an exceptionally funny film, it isn't too kind to either Stalin or what is happening today, and that's for a good reason. Listen as we break it down for you....more7minPlay
June 15, 2018Meanderings #122: Gnoming it up with "Sherlock Gnomes""Sherlock Gnomes," the sequel to "Gnomeo & Juliet" is out this week on Blu-ray and while Josh doesn't love it as much as he loves the first entry in the franchise, he does hope that it helps shows the way forward and that more gnome movies are on the horizon. Listen as he explains....more6minPlay

They are, undoubtedly, comedy classics, but is all well within them? There may be sadness just beyond the horizon......more6minPlay
June 07, 2018Meanderings #120: Changing History "Terminator: Genisys" & "Forrest Gump"Next week both "Terminator: Genisys" and "Forrest Gump" arrive on 4K UHD. Both these films play with history, the former with its own timeline and the latter wit the history of the United States. Whether or not it works in either (or both) cases, it does lead to some interesting questions about right and wrong....more8minPlay
June 05, 2018Episode 37: Kathryn Beaumont & Mindy Johnson on "Peter Pan"For Josh's money, "Peter Pan" is one of the best classic Disney animated films and so he couldn't be more excited today as on the podcast he talks to Kathryn Beaumont, the voice of Wendy Darling. She is joined by Mindy Johnson, an author and historian who literally wrote the book on Tinker Bell. What was filming like? How do these two women see the legacy of the movie? We delve into those questions and more....more17minPlay
