    Over the mountain, Down in the valley, Lives a former talk-show hostEverybody knows his name it is the Final Picture Show Podcast and this week on the show we load up with vodka and head to the mother land to watch a post-apocalyptic movie from Russia in the mid 90s, oh yeah it is also an art movie and a little surreal and a little confusing.

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 68 A Wind Named Amnesia (1990)

    I went down to the beach and saw Sue. She was all like Ehh and I'm like whatever and this is guy comes up to me while wearing my leather and he's all like death is a manifestation of our own child alien and I'm like... whatever. Whatever indeed as tonight we look at a navel gazing anime from the 90s-- a first, but not a last for us. We get into the philosophy of our times and more as we have a laugh brought to us by self-serious anime done in by bad acting, bad writing, bad....well

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 67 Last Night (1998)

    It's kinda like a love song (crazy old fashioned love song). Tonight we head to the great north and visit what some sources have called "a movie too Canadian for it's own good." Tonight we discover a hidden gem and hopefully you do too as this movie is too go to not share. Tonight we look at Last Night, a very 90s indie movie about what to do with the last hours on earth. A familiar concept for us, but a very different take then we have seen this far...and will likely see again. You can find the movie via the link here: https://youtu.be/RhNpt1GRWwM?si=8SDCtnweXuHqk6yjIt is worth your time and hopefully you felt our show was as well. Next week we head to 90s Japan and look at our first post-apocalyptic anime: A Wind Named Amnesia

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 66 Doom Runners (1997)

    Them bones are me, some say Doom Runners is an amazing movie. Tonight we feel so alone talkin' about this hidden gem from the 90s. What is Mad Max was for kids? That's the question we seek to answer this week. In addition, this week we dive into core 90s memories, our love of New Zealand, and one of Tim Curry's best movies.

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 65 War of the Worlds (1953)

    War...what is it good for? Vaporizing all of the humans! Good god! Tonight we visit the frontlines one last time as we look at the OG aliens invade movie War of the Worlds from 1953. We dive into the original casting choices, how formative the sound effects turned out to be, report on the national guard being deployed, and find the time to gush over 50s science fiction films. It is a fun time.

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 64 War of the Worlds (2005)

    Heartbreaker, you've got the best of me, But I just keep coming back incessantly, Oh, why did you have to run your game on me? I guess you are just War of the Worlds from 2005. Tonight we go back 20 years, holy carp I'm old, to the world of 2005 where we find a land recovering from the shock that was 9/11. Huh...a world in shock reeling from an event that took place 4 years prior... maybe this movie does have a lot in common with the 2025 version? Tonight we tackle the important topics like: looking at the filmography of two heavy hitters in the film world, the consequences of couch jumping, if Dakota Fanning is unfairly derided, why this endings sucks a big one, how we would rewrite this movie and make it more pro military. It is a fun time.

  • Final Picture Show Podcast Ep: 63 War of the Worlds (2025)

    Hanging down on the corner of 52nd and Broadway, cars passing bye and I wish one of them would hit me after sitting through 89 mins of this advertisement funded by billionaires. Less a movie and more of an example of late stage capitalism run amok---less of a review and more of support meeting for those recovering from shock. This movie is a sight to behold. Tonight we get into whateverinthehell this is and somehow make it out on the other side. God speed. Next week we look at the 2005 version of the HG Wells novel
