    Episode 159: War of the Worlds

    It's time to wrap up Spielberg Season 2 with the man's deeply cynical alien invasion film War of the Worlds. Sarah and MJ discuss the movie as an allegory for 9/11, refute even more schmaltz claims, talk about if there is a defenitive pandemic movie, and yes, brush up against Spielberg's latest release, Disclosure Day.

    Episode 158: The Terminal

    We pull into the penultimate stop on our journey through the second act of Spielberg's career to talk about his slight, feel good film The Terminal. They discuss the post-9/11 optimism of the piece and its connection to post-WWII optimisim, whether or not Tom Hanks' accent is good, and Sarah admits her belief in an age old addage (at least in this circumstance).

    This week, returning guest Rob Wallis joins us to talk about the only Spielberg/Di Caprio collaboration to date, Catch Me If You Can. They talk about the excellent 1960's production design, the loss of Leo's baby face, and refute accusations of Spielberg schmaltz (yet again).

    This week, Sarah and MJ are joined by Missy Lonsinger to talk about Spielberg's sci-fi follow-up to A.I., Minority Report!

Dick, the brief moment where Tom Cruise almost became a frequent Spielberg collaborator, and the beginning of the uglyfication of Spielberg's movies.

    Hey! Did you know we have a Patreon page? Check out this free Patron episode in lieu of your normal episode while MJ is on vacation! If you like what you hear, maybe drop by and subscribe at patreon.com/jawforaminute. This month's Patron Episode takes us to Northern California (which, ironically, is where MJ is spending some of his vacation), to witness a small town terrorized by spiders in Amblin's 1990 film, Arachnophobia. They discuss the "good ole days" of cinema, practical effects, and discover some similarities between Arachnophobia and a certain movie about a certain shark (hint: it is not Shark Exorcist).

    Episode 155: A.I. Artificial Intelligence

    Schmaltzy garbage? Misunderstood masterpiece? Unsung prophet of the modern age? A.I. is an odd, divisive film in Spielberg's filmography, but Sarah and MJ are joined bye Kip Mooney to get to the bottom of it!

    Episode 154: Saving Private Ryan

    Spielberg Season 2 keeps chugging into Spielberg's final film of the 1990's (or 1900's), Saving Private Ryan. MJ and Sarah are joined by Nick Mear to talk about the reverence Spielberg is able to maintain for its subjects while also keeping things moving at a good pace, lots of behind the scenes magic, and whether accusations of Spielberg being "schmaltzy" are legitimate.

    Episode 153: Amistad

    This week, Sarah and MJ talk about Spielberg's other 1997 film, Amistad. They discuss its odd placement in his filmography, the beginning of the "soft" look of his films, and the glorious wigs that dot the film.
