Is Ben Affleck right for Batman? Hear our opinions within..Opening: DaredevilBed track: 1989 Batman Score12 min
- TFR 9: Wright Here Wright NowVelkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome.This week we discuss one of our very favorite directors, Edgar Wright! With Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost having completed their Cornetto Trilogy this past weekend with The World's End (It's great, you should go see it), we discuss Wright's other works, and generally what makes his high-energy style tick. Along the ride, there are lots of blink-and-you'll-miss-it jokes and hidden bits of symbolism that make Wright's style unique and infinitely re-watchable.So Join the Club in our tribute to Edgar Wright!Opening: Hot Fuzz Dialogue/Here Come the Fuzz - Jon Spencer and the Elegant TooBedded throughout: Soundtracks to respective filmsClosing: The Cornetto Megamix - Mike RelmAlbert went to Alamo Drafthouse's Cornetto Trilogy screening on Thursday night and had a blast!Edgar Wright's Personal Blog: Official source for all your Edgar Wright production news, etc!Tease Me, Baby - Albert's The World's End Trailer write-up on The Website of DOOM!Film Brain's Projector: Keith Lemon - The FilmAnt Man test footage (There's more of it, but you'll have to dig around.)E-mail us: [email protected]Like us on Facebook!Twitter us: @FilmRoomCastAlbert: @PrimitiveManPrdAustin: @untitleduserWe are on iTunes!Please subscribe, rate, and review!Next Up: Horror!1 hr 2 min
- TFR: The Lost Tapes - A World He Never MadeHello, everybody!This time on The Lost Tapes, we riff Howard the Duck! Considered one of the worst flops of all time, Howard the Duck is a film adaptation of a then extremely popular Marvel comic of the same name, and one that we personally love. We compare the film to the comic; what they got right, what they missed, and where they REALLY went off the rails.So come sing along with the totally-not-forgettable theme song as we dive head first into Howard the Duck: The Movie!Opening: Hastily Made Cleveland Tourism Video Parts I & II(Hastily supercut by Al)(P.S. We're sure Cleveland is a lovely city to visit.)Closing: Duck Hunt SSBC Remix by LeonThe Howard the Duck Comics really are fully worth seeking out.E-mail us: [email protected]Like us on Facebook!Twitter us: @FilmRoomCastAlbert: @PrimitiveManPrdAustin: @untitleduserWe are on iTunes!Please subscribe, rate, and review!Next Up: Edgar Wright!1 hr 31 min
- TFR 8: SMithcastHello and welcome!We are back to revisit one of our favorite directors, Kevin Smith! It has been a while since either of us has caught up with the man, and figured it was high time we did just that. In this jumbo-sized cast, we delve into the (almost) complete filmography of the greatest director to come out of Jersey!Needless to say, our EXPLICIT TAG is in full effect here; not for the squeamish. So if you're cool with that, sit back and enjoy our SMithcast!SPOILER WARNING: Red State spoilers are from 1:23:34 to 1:33:34.

- TFR 7: Send In The 'ToonsThis week, Austin and Albert have a rather Looney chat about two movies featuring characters that shaped their childhoods. One a classic, one an oddity, we're talking Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Space Jam!In these two live-action-mixed-with-animation films, why did one work and one not? What defining factors made the difference? Why is Lola Bunny so terrible, and Jessica Rabbit so great? Can modern interpretations of the Looney Tunes work? These questions and more will be pondered and possibly answered in Send In The 'Toons!Opening remix: "Who Slammed Roger Rabbit" by Albert Wiltfong...I'm so sorry.Get the original and "extended" mixes!

- TFR: The Lost Tapes - The Whimsical World of Mary Crawford
Welcome to another Lost Tapes edition of The Film Room!
This time we gaze into a mouth-shaped deep, dark abyss; we watch David DeCoteau's A Talking Cat!?! (punctuation not ours), a family film that features notable actor Eric Roberts as the titular talking cat(!?!). Did we mention it was shot on the same set as some (extremely) soft core porn? By the same director? Did we?
After tumbling down the no-budget no-effort film hole, we try to climb our way back out by thoroughly picking it, and the importance of base filmmaking, apart at the seams.
This is The Whimsical World of Mary Crawford!

- TFR: The Lost Tapes - OogiehateWelcome, welcome to FUN!This is technically our Episode 0. About a month before we had the idea to start the cast, we partook in an experiment of sorts. We watched The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure and saved the resulting chat, spurring a discussion which germinated into the podcast you know today. What is contained within is a dramatic re-reading of that insane chat, with movie audio accompaniment. We discuss why this monumental theatrical flop not only doesn't work as a film, but as a piece of children's entertainment. We had a lot of fun doing this, and hope you will too!These are the lost tapes!E-mail us: [email protected]Twitter us: @FilmRoomCastAlbert: @PrimitiveManPrdAustin: @untitleduserYou can find the original chat, "The Oogieloves: A Journey Into Madness" in its raw form here.Austin's B-Movie Message Board review is here.Cinema Snob's hilarious parking lot review of Oogieloves.End song: Upular (Up Remix) by PogoUp Next (Really!): A Fish Called Wanda - The Career of John Cleese51 min
