The Complete Works Podcast

'Tis the season to watch some Christmas movies, and in true Mike and Mike fashion, we picked the most violent ones. It's time for a Mike Makes Mike Watch - Mike D is making Smith watch Ben Wheatley's hitman horror movie KILL LIST, while Smith is making Mike D catch up with the zombie musical ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE!

This week, Roy Scheider as a college debate coach, alongside master debaters Kirk Cameron and Jami Gertz - what starts as a college ensemble movie then takes a hard pivot into the kind of thing you'd expect from a Kirk Cameron vehicle. This is LISTEN TO ME!

It's time for another Mike Makes Mike Watch! This time around, Mike D is making Smith watch Takashi Miike's AUDITION, while Smith is making Mike D finally get around to Martin Scorsese's THE IRISHMAN!

This week, Roy Scheider co-stars alongside Adam Baldwin as two at-odds assassions in a bleak, nasty thriller from the screenwriter behind THE HITCHER and NEAR DARK - it's time for COHEN AND TATE!

It's a little bit late, but it's time for Mike D's annual Birthday Bylaw! And this time around, he decided to go way back and make us talk about Howard Hawks' seminal 1939 classic drama, ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS!

It's finally happened, everyone - two of our Complete Works subjects are in the same movie together! And it just happens to be one of the biggest movies of the year - so let's dive into Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh's supporting turns in WICKED!

This week, Roy Scheider stars in an Elmore Leonard adaptation from acclaimed action/thriller filmmaker John Frankenheimer (and reuniting with his OUTSIDE MAN co-star Ann-Margret while he's at it) - it's time for 52 PICK-UP!

It's been a while, so it's time for another bonus Off Mike Discussions episode! This week, Smith is watching a ton of new releases like MEGALOPOLIS, CONCLAVE, THELMA, SMILE 2, and VENOM: THE LAST DANCE. Meanwhile, Mike D has thoughts on RED ROOMS, IT'S WHAT'S INSIDE, STRANGE DARLING, and figured that it was finally time to catch up with THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST.

Finally, a club for men! Roy Scheider stars alongside Harvey Keitel, Frank Langella, Jennifer Jason Leigh and more as we discover that men will literally throw knives, hit up a brothel, and stage a wedding with a sex worker rather than go to therapy.

Did you know that Roy Scheider provided English narration for the original theatrical release of Paul Schrader's epic biopic MISHIMA: A LIFE IN FOUR CHAPTERS? Well, he did - and even though that's not the version most people watch today, it means we've still got to talk about it!
