Les Fugitifs
We end Mike White May, this year all about Francis Veber films and their remakes, with the first Veber film to star Martin Short, but definitely not the last, Les Fugitifs. The Projection Booth's Mike White and Richard Hatem's Paranormal Bookshelf Richard Hatem join the episode to talk
Martin Short again, Nick Nolte, and the respective child actors.
The two films follow a former bank robber who, on his first day out of prison, gets mixed up in a robbery gone, and has to try and sort out his life and the robber's life as well.

Mad Max Fury Road
We take a break from Mike White May with the fourth in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a look at the latest entry in the series and a perfect film: Mad Max Fury Road. Midnight Viewing's Father Malone joins the episode to talk Immortan Joe, Charlize Theron, and the recasting of Mad Max.
Directed once again by George Miller and starring a recast Tom Hardy as Max, it's a high octane thrill-ride across the savaged wasteland of dystopian Austrailia. It's one of the most stunning pieces of practical filmmaking ever put to screen and a worthy entry into the "Perfect Film Club".

La Chèvre / Pure Luck
We near the end of Mike White May, this year all about Francis Veber films and their remakes, with the first pairing of a duo that would become famous for their works together in La Chevre. The Projection Booth's Mike White and Film Foundation's Ryan Verrill join the episode to talk
Martin Short, Pierre Richard, and why the remake doesn't work.
The two films follow a private investigator tasked with finding a wealthy client's supremely unlucky daughter by forcing him to work with an equally unlucky man from the wealthy client's business. It's high concept that struggles to be as funny as the intial setup seems to think it is.

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
We take a break from Mike White May with the third in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a look at the final film in the original trilogy Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Midnight Viewing's Father Malone joins the episode to talk guzzoline, Aunty Entity, and why this movie has gotten a bad rap.
Directed once again by George Miller and starring Gibson once again, the film follows the titular Max as must contend with wasteland politics and resource scarity in Bartertown, a town run by Tina Turner's pitch perfect Aunty Entity. Throw in a dash of Peter Pan for good measure and you have the George Miller-est entry into the franchise yet.
