"Captain America: Brave New World"

For this week's main podcast review, Lauren LaMagna, Cody Dericks, Brendan Hodges and I are here to discuss and review the latest edition in the MCU, "Captain America: Brave New World," starring Anthony Mackie, Danny Ramirez, Shira Haas, Carl Lumbly, Xosha Roquemore, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Giancarlo Esposito, Tim Blake Nelson & Harrison Ford. After many years, delays re-shoots, and a Disney+ series, Anthony Mackie finally gets his own Marvel film as the new Captain America, with Harrison Ford joining the MCU and taking over the role of (now President) Thaddeus Ross. What did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the writing, direction, acting, action, what this is all leading to, how it toes back to 2008's "The Incredible Hulk," and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

"The English Patient"

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture With the release of "Conclave," Ralph Fiennes is finally an Oscar nominee once again after nearly thirty years since his last nomination for Anthony Minghella's 1996 film "The English Patient." The epic romance WWII drama went on to win a leading 9 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and was a critical and box office success. Starring Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe, Kristin Scott Thomas, Naveen Andrews, Colin Firth, Julian Wadham, and Jürgen Prochnowwe, the film has had a bit of a divisive reaction as the years have gone on. What did we think of it upon this latest rewatch? Please tune in this Valentine's Day as Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, and I discuss the direction, writing, performances, craftsmanship, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Comprehensive film podcast

Deb in KL

I enjoy listening to the different takes on mainstream and art house movies. Though at times the reviews can be rather lengthy. I particularly like the conversations on awards wins; predictions and the wins. This podcast is for the movie obsessed!
Best podcast for Oscar picks

austinthebookworm

Great podcast but there’s one presenter who is a bit impatient and talks over others - anyway still amazing, great coverage of mainstream and Arthouse flicks and of course the essential voice on Oscar predictions
Quality content, average audio

Dan the Milkshake Man

Enjoy the comprehensive analysis Lauren Cohen needs to upgrade the audio quality, which sounds awfully tinny
Less would be more.

Really good podcast that would be really great if it got rid of two things - the polls and Dan Bayer.
