Movie Madness

It’s Blu-ray time again as Sergio Mims joins Erik to take you on a sprawling arc (even the Joan kind) through recent titles you will want to check out. From a pair of watered-down true stories about bad men down to the everyday concerns of the suburbs from paying for college to weird neighbors. They put another woefully-mishandled small town mystery on your radar as well as a couple action films that Sergio just loves for their interrogations, chases and downhill ski shootouts. How can you resist?   Olive (Birdman of Alcatraz, Great Balls of Fire, Five on the Black Hand Side, The Hallelujah Trail) Twilight Time (Don’t Bother To Knock, Underworld USA, The New Centurions, The Seven-Ups) Criterion (The Passion of Joan of Arc, The King of Jazz, Women in Love) Lionsgate (Lady Bird, Small Town Crime. The Last Movie Star) Kino (Joan of Arc, The Soldier) Shout Factory (The Burbs)

It’s the annual Summer Box Office show! Erik Childress breaks down his predictions for the 20 films he believes will be the tops in theaters this summer and then goes beyond just as a bonus. Sergio Mims is on hand to challenge some of those thoughts. They certainly agree what will be the champion of the summer, but can it be the biggest film of the year? It’s all here as they discuss Infinity War, Deadpool 2, Solo: A Star Wars Story as well as Sicario Deux and all the non-sequels as well. They even bring in some outside market research thanks to Olivia Obineme from WHPK Radio’s South Side Weekly. Do you agree or disagree with their findings?

Last month, Erik Childress attended his 16th SXSW Film Festival and it was one of the best ones in years. It opened with A Quiet Place which has gone on to become one of the biggest success stories of the year. There were some wonderful surprises by a number of films still waiting for distribution deals. But greatest of all was the host being in the same room with his cinematic idol during a special screening at the festival. Erik tells the whole story to Sergio Mims and also shows a lot of love (and a little shade) to the films he saw.
