MoviePod is weebing out this week!

I am joined by MLYP to discuss a film that bombed at the Japanese box office and contributed to bankrupting an animation studio. Home video and digital releases helped elevate the status of Redline and now people consider it to be an excellent gateway anime for Western audiences trying to get into the medium.

(The wrong file was uploaded last time. This is the correct version. Sorry for the inconvenience)

John Travolta and Nick Cage swap faces in the John Woo film Face/Off. It was well-received but time has been very favourable to the film. Repeat viewings on cable as well as cult fandoms developing around Nicholas Cage, John Woo and the film itself has helped elevate the film to being considered one of the best action films of the 1990s.

I am joined by June and Caleb from the Kill The Computer podcast. Caleb also composed the music for MoviePod and hosts the 60 Minute Drill podcast. June, like Caleb, is a legendary poster on Twitter and Bluesky. She is a social media editor for The Onion and co-hosts the Ill-Conceived podcast.

This week on MoviePod we are discussing a film that I find so interesting that it inspired me to change to this format. I am joined by my great friend Ben to discuss Alien 3, also known as Alien³, or Alien Cubed. David Fincher directed this bleak and depressing film but disowned it after the studio interfered. An extended cut, known as the Assembly Cut, released in the early 2000s restored much of Fincher's vision.

Alien 3 has a really troubled and fascinating history and it was a blast to dive in deep to see why people absolutely despise this film for killing off fan favourites while undestanding why people appreciate that bold choice.

Heads up: there are some Game of Thrones season 3 spoilers in this episode. This movie does feature Tywin Lannister but the spoiler actually is not about him!

"Hold on tight, spider monkey"

Andy returns to MoviePod to discuss the hit film Twilight. As Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's careers have hit new critical heights people have treated this young adult adaptation with far less contempt. This film always had its fans but the detractors have softened their vitriol. This is still a batshit insane film and our discussion is a lot of fun.

MoviePod has been injected with a virus and has evolved into something much greater!

MoviePod is now a podcast about reclaimed cinema! To open up the new format I am joined by Maeve. We discuss Paul W.S. Anderson's Resident Evil. This may not be a great adaptation of the video game but us and subscribers to vulgar auteur theory.
