The Neon Movie Bunker

It's a big show this week, as El'Ahrai and John probe the nature of truth and reality--and the nature of love and weaving--with reviews of "You Can See Everything" and "Wicker"! Plus Bat-newsbits, home video picks, a question, and more! That lady promised me six whole bars of cream-whipped hazelnut milk chocolate. I've come to collect.

Can you go home again? Can an Oscar-winning screenwriter go back to the well that won them that award? Listen to John, El'Ahrai, and Cati try to get to the bottom of that question with their mutual review of "The Social Reckoning"! Plus a historic flop, a closing of note, and a dispatch from The Massacre at the Pickwick Theatre! You should listen! We get 'em all: sun-worshippers, moon-worshippers, Satanists. The Manson family used to hang around and shoplift. Bunch of deadbeats!

Conflict! Friction! Fight! Fight! Fight! El'Ahrai, John, and Cati gather 'round the microphones this week, and there is a major disagreement about one of the films up for discussion! Which one will it be? Your choices, all reviewed, are "Digger", "Verity", and "The History of Concrete"! Plus! The merger practically nobody wanted has gone through--what will Skydance do to you? Plus video picks, questions, and more! You should listen! One night with Venus, a lifetime with mercury. Isn't that the phrase?

You've all been very good boys, girls, and everything elses, so John and El'Ahrai have returned to bestow upon you talk about movies! This week, we've got reviews of "Primetime" and "The End of Oak Street" for you, as well as newsbits, video picks, and more! (Look, all the writeups can't be winners. Clearly.) You should listen! In heathen times you might have been a Great Priestess of Isis. Yet, in this strange and modern world your purpose is of greater worth.

Another 168 hours (give or take) have passed, so El'Ahrai and John are back with another round of reviews, news, and more! Thrill to reviews of "Resident Evil" and "Runner"! Hear, at last, who won the TIFF People's Choice Award! Learn about home video releases! And, just possibly...more! You should listen! Remind me again how you found your nipples attached to a car battery.

We're rounding the turn into the home stretch of the year, which around these parts means ANTICIPATION! Join John, El'Ahrai, and Cati as they enumerate their lists of their Five Most Anticipated Movies Through The End Of The Year! (Unanimous agreement on "Hexed", of course.) Plus! Reviews of "Practical Magic 2" and "The Uprising"! You should listen! You've always been crazy. This is just the first chance you've ever had to really express yourself.

Fall festival season has arrived, and we're talking about it! Hear El'Ahrai and John dsicuss the goings-on at Venice, Telluride, and Toronto. But wait, there's more! There are also reviews of "Mutiny" and "The Furious"! Plus video picks and more. You should listen! I'm supposed to believe that you are perfectly relaxed, right here, now...in a dark alleyway, waiting to buy black-market plutonium from a psychopath?

3-2-1. This week, John, El'Ahrai, and Cati (The Blonde in Front) review three films this week, all three of them on the first ("The Dog Stars"), El'Ahrai and Cati on the second ("Buddy"), and John alone on the third ("Coyote vs. Acme"). Which will come out triumphant? But wait, there's more! We also have details of the Neon Movie Bunker 20th Anniversary Whatever! (Here's a hint: twitch.tv/neonmoviebunker--but when?!) Plus newsbits, video picks, and the usual foolishness. You should listen! He respects me. He loves me. And he's never boring.

It's another magnificent episode this week, as John and El'Ahrai are joined by Cati Glidewell, the Blonde in Front, for a lively roundtable discussion of Maastricht Zone trade in the age of Trump's tariffs and whether the Yankees have enough relief pitching for the 2026 postseason. Wait, I'm getting late word--that agenda has been scrapped and this week they're talking about movies. Reviews of "Tony", "Buffet Infinity", and "Colony" are on tap! Plus a few quick newsbits, home video talk, and a Ridley Scott ranking! You should listen! Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion.

There is a theme running through this week's reviews: it's called "people doing dumb things". John and El'Ahrai review "The Wrong Girls" and "Jackass: Best and Last". Plus other bits and things and stuff. It's not a bad show, all told. You should listen! Were you wearing an armadillo helmet when you said it?
