RamblingRamblers' Podcast

March Madness has arrived and for you non-sports fans, that means having to listen to us basketball fans go on and on about brackets and Cinderellas and upsets...

Well how about a bracket made just for movie lovers?

In this episode, Justin, Pat, and Pete navigate an expertly made bracket containing films made by the beloved director Steven Spielberg. They go round-by-round until the ultimate champion is crowned. How far will your favorite Spielberg film go? Listen to find out!

Trailers this week include the young adult novel adaptation The Maze Runner, the summer sci-fi sleeper The Signal and the Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep film The Giver.

This week, Justin is away, but that doesn't stop Pete and Pat from looking at the Oscars, the MTV Movie Awards and the war of words between Zack Snyder and Terry Gilliam over Watchmen. The duo then deliver some tough love to their absent cohost by running down a list of older essential films (that Justin has probably not seen). Trailers this week include Deliver Us from Evil, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, and Frank.

Welcome back, listeners! We missed you!

After a THREE WEEK BREAK (again, our apologies) the guys are once again joined by Pete Conway as they take on the job of picking out some of the greatest casting decisions of all-time as well as the ones that made us want to put our heads through the wall. Also, name-flubs! And something called "the masculinity of man." It's all here!

News-wise, the guys cover the unfortunate passing of Harold Ramis as well as the casting of the new Fantastic Four reboot (which inspired the feature discussion topic). Trailers this week include Paul Walker's second-to-last hurrah, Brick Mansions, Ten Rules for Sleeping Around and the much-ballyhooed Guardians of the Galaxy.

Come for the great discussion. Stay for Pat's impressions of both Keanu Reeves and the RZA. Not many people can pull off both...

In this episode, Justin is joined by Pete Conway, friend of the show AND the host, as Pat was off galavanting with Kellen Lutz somewhere on the opening weekend of The Legend of Hercules.

Justin and Pete dive into some news about the new FX show based on the Coen Brothers film Fargo, lament the future existence of Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 and continue discussing the sad yet hilarious story that is Shia LaBeouf.

Then the guys move on to discuss Her, the new Spike Jonze film that is equally beautiful and brilliant. And even though they talk about it for a half hour, they fail to mention HOW FUNNY IT IS! IT'S REALLY FUNNY! (No, really - it's actually very funny).

In this episode, Pat and Justin eulogize the video rental store behemoth that has now officially gone out of business. What does this mean for the rental business? Is Netflix really the end-all and be-all of home viewing entertainment? And what type of trouble did Manager Pat get into when HE used to work for Blockbuster?

All of that plus the guys briefly discuss Pat's viewing of Thor: The Dark World and get into the news about franchise-shifting directors being hired for both Star Trek and the next Bourne film. Also, Justin kicks and screams some more about Horrible Bosses 2. Trailers covered this week include A Winter's Tale and The Raid 2.

Justin and Pat spend this episode looking at horror movies in all their forms as Pat discusses why the genre is his favorite. The duo also discuss new trailers for Charlie Countryman and Hercules: The Legend Begins, and spend some time focusing on facial hair and Charlie Hunnam's shopping habits.

Pat and Justin provide an overview of the show before diving into new trailers for American Hustle and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, as well as a discussion of the next Oscar host. Our feature discussion springboards off of Warner Brothers announcement about the next Superman movie to discuss the state of DC comics movies and the overload of film news.
