  • Projecting an Ending to NO TIME TO DIE
    In which two podcasters who aren't big fans of James Bond try desperately to figure out how to continue this nonsense.

    If you ever wanted to see a beloved franchise compared to the USA cable channel classic BURN NOTICE... then do we have the podcast for you.

    Along the way we try to remember the various endings of the HALLOWEEN franchise and declare Daniel Craig victorious over Harrison Ford. Enjoy!

  • Zack Snyder's SHORT CUTS
    You can't please everyone... but you have a better chance by making your movie really long.

    And just include everyone's favorite character. Maybe that's Jack Lemmon as an absentee father trying to make good. Or perhaps you prefer Madeline Stowe as a mother who doesn't like phone calls. Lyle Lovett who takes baking VERY. SERIOUS. You might even be a guy that likes Julianne Moore with no pants on-

    Alright, you get the point. This is an episode on glorious excess in film. And to celebrate we do the same. For podcasting. Also with no pants. Enjoy!

  • Projecting BLUE COLLAR for Labor Day
    We talk race relations, class warfare and NOPE we let this 1978 Paul Schrader film speak for itself.

    What your two lowly movie podcast hosts can discuss with some authority is how they start their day by managing their streaming queues across various platforms and how movie posters did Richard Pryor a great disservice as an actor. Also we imagine what it would be like to interrupt Harvey Keitel as he gives oral pleasure to a lady. All of this adds up to us being BOLD MEN!

  • Projecting THE KID DETECTIVE for BAD DETECTIVES
    We discuss a film where the detectives aren't as bad as the title states.

    Also BAD DETECTIVES has little to do with the characters of BAD TEACHER. Or BAD MOMS. And absolutely nothing to do with BAD SANTA (for better or worse). Instead this Presley Paras film questions the validity of the old guard when amateurs get a look at the books; something we'd like to believe applies to us... but then again in editing these episodes it's apparent we belong exactly where we are.

    Enjoy our discussion of this film and other examples of young crime solvers such as THE KID DETECTIVE and BRICK!

  • Projecting No Children for Mother's Day and OBVIOUS CHILD
    We discuss Jenny Slate and Jim #2 from THE OFFICE and it's adorable except for the pregnancy bit.

    OBVIOUS CHILD released into theaters in the summer of 2014 to much affection but not from the conservatives who loved little JUNO and her precocious decision to keep her pregnancy. Guest Derek of THE GRAND GESTURE joins the show to bro it out on how we adjust our expectations for a comedy based on such serious subject matter and to do so we rely on previous films by the likes of Woody Allen and-

    -well these show notes are not getting any easier. How about you just listen instead. This is an audio format after all.

  • Projecting TOGETHER TOGETHER as the Rom-Com Without the Creepy Romance
    We discuss this new Patti Harrison & Ed Helms baby-making comedy...

    But we also project these films:

    • DEFENDING YOUR LIFE
    • KNOCKED UP
    • YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
    • THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY
    • OBVIOUS CHILD
    • and THE SWIMMER
    • That last one was mainly to talk about Burt Lancaster's chest. We couldn't resist and neither could you. If this assortment of movies give you the impression that you should check out this theatrical release on April 23 or when it hits VOD on May 11... well, we've done our job. Or at the very least appropriated other great works to make our point. Enjoy!

    • Projecting a RUN from the MISERY of 2020

      Much like the rest of you (THOUSANDS of listeners we can only assume) we can't wait to leave 2020 behind. So for our first episode of 2021 we look at the charms of parenthood. And no... not more of the strangely beloved NBC family drama but instead the child-rearing talents of one Sarah Paulson in RUN. This leads to hot tub fantasies with Kathy Bates from MISERY. Naturally. 2021 is going to be great!

    • Projecting LAST CHRISTMAS Sixteen Years After ELF

      Web Bist co-host of TRILOGY IN THEORY and well-known Emilia Clarke superfan joins PROJECTING FILM to discuss LAST CHRISTMAS. This late Christmas episode is fine because look at that title.

      Also the editor of this show is very lazy.

      But that matter not as we talk holiday films that are strangely obsessed with death and being late to ELF sixteen years after its release. Enjoy as we lecture you and ourselves on our rampant consumerism!

    • Projecting THE BIG CHILL as The Worst Episode of DINNER FOR FIVE

      While it may be sad that this year no one should be gathering around the dinner table for the holidays, fear not! For the latest episode of PROJECTING FILM can provide all of the awkwardly boorish conversation you have come to hate for those annual family gatherings as your hosts compare an official Criterion classic in THE BIG CHILL to something that is truly great... which is the DAREDEVIL publicity tour episode of DINNER FOR FIVE.

      We have never felt more right.
