    BALLISTIC: ECKS VS. SEVER (2002) The Worst Reviewed Movie on Rotten Tomatoes Paired with Maligned Wines

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! Last December, while recording a different episode for this podcast, Dallas and myself discovered that we both had fond memories of a movie titled (ridiculously, but also awesomely) "Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever” starring Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu. We’d both seen it in the theater back in 2002, and…never again since. That’s partly due to the movie largely being unavilable due to rights issues, but mostly because it has the LOWEST RATING OF ANY MOVIE EVER ON ROTTEN TOMATOES!!! That’s right, with 119 professional reviews, that is the highest number of total reviews while still maintaining a splat-tastic 0%. So we were scared. Did we want to ruin this childhood memory? (By “childhood” I mean young adulthood, but you get what we’re saying.) Well, then returning special guest (from our MIRACLE MILE episode) Nicholas Langdon took interest in joining us if we ever covered it on the pod, and we said eff it, let’s do it. Let find out.

    THE NAPA BOYS (2025) - The Fake Sequel to Sideways Paired with the Shittiest Pinot Noir in the World

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! THE NAPA BOYS is a brand new comedy that debuted last year at the Toronto Internatuional Film Festival (TIFF) and caused quite a stir. The film follows the two sons of Sideways main characters - Jack, Jr. and Miles, Jr. - and their entire “Napa Boys” crew which has become famous throughout the world because - get this - this is in fact the FOURTH Napa Boys movie in an ever-expanding Sideways-sequel franchise which also includes The Napa Girls. The title screen for this film, when it displays, is THE NAPA BOYS 4: THE SOMMELIER’S AMULET. It’s a fake fourth movie of a never-made franchise of a film that never even spawned a sequel let alone a franchise and it is an SNL-style gross-out comedy-fest and it is going to be divisive. We know this because…we were divided! Yes, this is the first episode where we strongly disagreed with a guest regarding their movie. Decarceration had seen it twice and enjoyed it and thought highly of it’s blackly comedic critical lashes while Dallas and myself were…less enthused. We cover the backstory and making of the film, then spend a half hour being painfully polite, trying to express our differences while nodding to the talent involved, etc. But folks, we get INTO IT at around the hour mark. It had to happen eventually! Fight! Fight! Fight!

    SIDEWAYS (2004) Paired with Wines That Embody Its Characters

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! We did BOTTLE SHOCK, so we had to do the better of the two 00's wine movies - SIDEWAYS.  We discuss "The Sideways Effect". "The French Paradox", how both dovetailed to alter the American wine industry, and why this movie still matters. And then pair wines to match certain characters.

    ONE CUT OF THE DEAD (2017) w/ Screenwriter Mark Palermo: Paired with Wines - and a Hard Ice Cream Float - that Embody the Punk Rock Inventiveness of Indie Filmmaking

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! THIS EPISODE CONTAINS ALL THE SPOILERS! ALL OF THEM! GO WATCH THIS MOVIE BEFORE LISTENING! AND DEFINITELY DO WATCH THIS MOVIE! With special guest, Screenwriter MARK PALERMO, writer of one of my Top 5 movies of all time, DETENTION (2011). Also podcast host for MOVIES AND CHAOS and writer for the The Retroscope zine. ONE CUT OF THE DEAD is not-really a horror film that was made for $30,000 by a director whose ethos was: you need to make 200-300 movies before you can make a single good one! We do argue whether that’s actually necessary, certainly at that nutty number, but one thing is certain: Ueda made something AMAZING with One Cut off the Dead. The film soon reveals itself, and it is a celebratory, life-affirming, wild, comedic, charming, unforgettable filmwatching experience by the time the second (?) credits roll. THE WINES (and Hard Ice Cream Float) FINAL GIRLS WINE 2023 “Frankenfizz” Piquette of Sangiovese2014 Fiddlehead Cellars “728” Pinot Noir, Fiddlestix Vineyard, Sta. Rita HillsVodka Root Beer Float (instructions below)Instructions Split a can of soda between two large glasses and then add a shot of vodka to each.Carefully drop two scoops of either dairy dairy-free ice cream into each glass (if you have an ice cream that is cinnamon or coconut flavored - or both! - it makes it even better), and then top off with remaining can of root beer.Slurp, scoop, and enjoy.Support the show Our Sponsor: CURATED WINE SHOP, mid-city Los Angeles, they'll help you pair wine with any movie!

    BOTTLE SHOCK (2008) Paired with the Objectively Superior Cabernet and New World Syrah

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! We finally tackle a WINE movie! And since the 50th anniversary of the Judgment of Paris was last week, we had to cover the (highly fictionalized) movie that was made about the event. We're talking the rather silly and otherwise forgettable BOTTLE SHOCK starring Alan Rickman, Bill Pullman, Chris Pine, and Chris Pine's wig. Dig in for a little wine history, a little film history, and a lot of rewriting a shitty script in real time.

    VINTERVIEW: Director Chris McGilvray talks Wine Documentary EDEN (2024)

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! Today’s VINTERVIEW is with filmmaker, branded content creator, and now documentarian Chris McGilvray. We chat with Chris about his narrative short filmmaking, how he quickly realized this was never going to lead to the kind of breakthrough previous generations enjoyed, pivoted to branded content and became a champion of pushing that type of work into more organic and authentic expressions, and then segued from that into his first feature length documentary about the Mount Eden Winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains, considered to have the longest lineage of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in all of North America. We thought this Vinterview would run 20-30 minutes. We had the whole thing Q&A’d scripted out and it was only 5 Q’s! But the conversation evolved organically and we talked at length about the themes of the documentary, themes you rarely see in a Wine doc yet pertain to nearly every aspect of the wine industry.

    Kiyoshi Kurosawa's PULSE (2001) Paired with Loneliness and Blackberry Cobbler

    Sen Us Your Thoughts! Dallas asked me: "What's the creepiest movie you've ever seen? Not the scariest - the creepiest." I only had to think about it for a short moment: PULSE. A movie that is creepy, unnerving, unsettling, and so, so easy to sink into. We dive deep into its themes of human lonliness, the rise of the internet and the moment of Y2K, and how PULSE imagines the human world might end. Or, perhaps, how it's already ended.
