Movies N Sh*t

The sexiest of all episodes begins with a quick discussion about numbers, a reminder that all of you out there listening have the power to give this podcast a rating, Werner Herzog’s definition of truth, and a little Oscar talk before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We’ve Seen since last time (17:29), TV Talk (48:11), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (1:04:19).  Then it’s time for brand new installments of What Year Did That Come Out Again? (1:21:40) and Tomato Talk (1:28:12) before a special Bonus Action Movie Trivia Game (1:32:56)!  Finally, your Hidden Gem recommendation is provided at 1:43:40.  Episode highlights include a discussion about the poetry of On the Waterfront, original cinematic approaches that we’ve never seen before,  Patrick’s preference for dogs over cats, how the production of a film can inform the way we view and judge the film itself, Patrick’s aversion to body horror, the problem with having a job, the enduring legacy of SNL, the unseating of Ernst Stavro Blofeld by Amazon’s Jeff Bezos as James Bond’s greatest nemesis, and The Fast and the Furious franchise’s unhinged titling insanity. 

That’s all from us for now… we’re gonna go smoke a cigarette. 

Episode 68 begins with a little secret, a little Lynch talk, a little fire talk, a little seat talk, and a little move-based musical talk before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We’ve Seen since last time (at sort of 18:54, but really 20:02), TV Talk (1:21:03), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (1:35:04).  Then it’s time for another installment of What Year Did That Come Out Again? at 1:45:42 and a special David Lynch edition of Tomato Talk at 1:50:56.  Finally, at 1:54:12, podsmith Patrick provides a Hidden Gem recommendation for your viewing pleasure.  Episode highlights include our adoration for Vidiots, a discussion about what makes acting impressive, age inappropriate historical epics, unlikely Christmas movies, covers superior to original songs, what James Mangold does well, asexual male comradery, Kelly's updated Star Wars sequel trilogy rankings and Patrick's impassioned response, AppleTV's unsettling visual aesthetic and the unsettling visual aesthetic of Brett Goldstein's unshaven face (we love his bearded look, for the record), when it's okay to tinker with a finished film, the superiority of the original Alien movie, excitement about the latest take on Superman, and a final word from the incomparable David Lynch.  
Golden sunshine and blue skies all the way!   

Episode 67 begins with some Nic Cage holiday goodness, unconfirmed James Bond murder trivia, and a little Trek talk before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We’ve Seen since last time (22:49), TV Talk (1:05:49), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (1:25:42).  Then it’s time for the first ever combination installment of What Year Did That Come Out Again? AND Tomato Talk at 1:37:31 and - SPOILER ALERT - Patrick absolutely crushes it!  Finally, at 1:43:40, both of the podsmiths provide a Hidden Gem recommendation for your holiday viewing pleasure.  Episode highlights include motion capture talk, helpful listener feedback, the magnificence of Wicked, the troubled convenience of Gladiiator, the brilliance of John Williams, the latest Star Wars show, our favorite Mission: Impossible movies, a shout-out to your next Oscar host - Conan O’Brien, and of course, holiday movie talk.  All this in less than 2 hours!  Enjoy, ya filthy animals.

We begin executing episode 66 with a heartfelt Movies N Sh*t tribute to the ultimate cinematic daddy and legend of legends, James Earl Jones.  Then it’s on to a little movie theater talk, followed by a discussion about movie trailer dialogue delivery vs. actual movie dialogue delivery before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We’ve Seen since last time (21:36), TV Talk (1:39:57), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (2:00:00).  Then it’s time for a double dose of “Not Like This, Christopher Nolan” along with some enlightening listener feedback at 2:16:15 before Patrick’s shameful showing of What Year Did That Come Out Again? at 2:25:28 but impressive performance during Tomato Talk at 2:28:10 to redeem himself before both of the podsmiths provide a Hidden Gem recommendation for your viewing pleasure.  Episode highlights include Kelly and Patrick arguing about transformers, agreeing about the joy of showing someone a movie they end up liking, discussions about the real-time storytelling format, movie hitmen, a lack of sincerity in today's hip, self-aware flicks, a general lack of respect amongst movie theater audiences today and whether or not we even deserve nice things, and of course, a love song for Bobby Long. 

Special shout-out to all our North Carolina friends and listeners recovering from the storm.  Thinking about you all and hoping you are back with the power to watch all the movies you can get your hands on very soon.  

Today’s episode opens with a classic clip that also serves as the most in-depth installment of  “Not Like This, Christopher Nolan” ever produced for this podcast.  We chase that with further humorous digression about Top Gun, crab boils, lizards, what we’ve learned from the movies and whether or not that’s a good thing, the Mandela effect, the beginning and end of water cooler pop-culture references, Emmy nominations, the great and powerful Gary Oldman, and non-musical Musical trailers, all before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We’ve Seen since last time (30:58), TV Talk (1:30:07), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (1:43:05).  Then, Patrick absolutely crushes the latest installment of What Year Did That Come Out Again? at 1:59:48 and Tomato Talk at 2:02:33 before providing another masterful Hidden Gem recommendation to close things out until next time.  Episode highlights include a discussion about Horizons, other westerns and passion projects, Run Fairs, the Death of Stalin, Trek Takes, Olympic takes, and a movie experience in the wake of an assassination attempt unlike any other.    

Special shout out this week to Patrick’s high school geography teacher, Russell Vacanti.  Live long and prosper

All that, plus Patrick has a mid-life crisis inspired melt-down while Kelly takes a break to pee.  

Movie watchers… Riiiiiiiise!
