Silver Screen Snobs

It's the Twins special! No, not the Arnie/De Vito classic - although in hindsight that would have been awesome - No we're taking on the the new Kristen Wiig/Bill Hader dramedy The Skeleton Twins. Plus a double feature of double movies with Enemy and The Double! That's more dopplegangers than you can shake two identical sticks at. Also, there's the Shaq-starring Steel in Dave's Crap Corner, which totally fits the double theme coz' the hero and his alter ego steel suit is like a metaphor for the duality of man, man. Also, there's some news.

Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller have finally delivered their long-awaited comic book sequel, Sin City: A Dame To Kill For. Tom and Dave fight over whether or not Twitter belongs in Jon Favreau's Chef or how dumb is too dumb in Grand Piano plus reviews of Divergent and Start Options Exit. Guest: James Bird.

Uber Turtles fan Jesse Boyle returns to help us discuss Michael Bay's updated version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Tom also reviews Across 110th Street in the Classic Corner and we talk sequels-a-plenty in the news section.

This week we're joined by guest Tim Durkin to review Boyhood, Richard Linklater's epic, as well as discuss the latest comedy out of New Zealand, What We Do in the Shadows. Tom takes over the Crap Corner to talk Tobe Hooper's Lifeforce and there ain't no news because who's got time for news? Not us. Not this week, anyway.

Craig Johnson returns to help us discuss Joel Edgerton's latest, Felony. We also review Woody Allen's new film, Magic in the Moonlight, and the late Richard Attenborough's Trial and Error.

The Inbetweeners "lads" are "back" and they're headed to "Australia"! This week we discuss the second film to spawn out of the incredibly popular U.K. comedy and Tom also covers the last couple of MIFF 2014 screenings. Plus some news. Always with the news.

We're back again with MIFF Part 2 covering more films Tom's been checking out at the festival this year: Turkey Shoot, It Follows, Trespassing Bergman and Housebound.

In a Snobcast first, we attempt to review a feature film and fall apart on mic while doing so. Turns out The Expendables 3 simply isn't worth talking about. So we almost do. Then don't. Then do again. And so on. But not before we pay tribute to Robin Williams and discuss Palo Alto and Devil's Knot.

Tom takes us through six films of MIFF 2014 in this special bonus episode: Electric Boogaloo: The Wild Untold Story of Cannon Films, Life Itself, Oculus, Locke, I Hired A Contract Killer, We Are The Best. Guest: Jesse Boyle.

This week we discuss Marvel's latest film, Guardians of the Galaxy, with guest Jesse Boyle. Tom reviews William Friedkin's Sorcerer in the Classic Corner and we talk female superhero movies, Scorsese loving film over digital and who blinked first in the DC vs Marvel staring match.
