Cinema Fix

Are you a movie addict? Do you get the shakes if you're not at the theater every weekend? Does your spirit long for cinematic enlightenment? If so, don't worry. We're here to help you get your fix. Join Andrew and Monica every week for the purest discussion and in-depth analysis of the latest mainstream and blockbuster films. Don't want to be spoiled? No problem! Each episode is split into two separate segments. The first is just a 10-minute general discussion letting you know whether or not a movie is worth your hard-earned cash. The second is when they dive deep into spoiler territory and really pick apart what does and doesn't work at both a craft and thematic level. Come on, you know you want it. And the best part is, this drug is legal.

    Episode #81: Guardians of the Galaxy (Part 2)

    I am Groot! As is the custom whenever a new superhero movie is released, Rod Morrow joins Andrew and Monica to debate its merits. Guardians of the Galaxy introduces audience to a whole new side of the Marvel universe. One thing's for certain -- it does have a lot of comic relief and personality. But is that enough to make it a good movie? The gang debates everything from the villains to the characterization to Marvel's overall plan. Is Thanos a compelling threat yet? What's up with Gamora's motivations? How is the movie clearly aimed towards people who are already familiar with the Marvel universe? And why, oh why, is Howard the Duck here? Tune in to find out. SHOW NOTES: 0:22 - Intro 3:55 - Rod's thoughts on Guardians of the Galaxy 12:38 - Poorly-drawn characters? 21:20 - Ronan and Marvel's choice of villains 26:35 - Lack of world-building (unless you're a comic fan) 33:20 - A good movie, or empty personality? 41:55 - Whether Marvel films are defined by mere anticipation 47:05 - The direction and visual style 49:54 - Do we even need Phase 2? 1:02:46 - Other random thoughts 1:16:44 - Show close DON'T FORGET: You can contact the show by emailing cinemafix@filmgeekradio.com or leaving a voicemail at 336-793-2509.

    Episode #81: Calvary, Lucy, Guardians of the Galaxy (Part 2)

    Andrew and Monica return with spoiler-free thoughts on three of late summer's cinematic offerings. First, they discuss the new film from director John Michael McDonagh, Calvary, which stars Brendan Gleeson as an Irish priest. They then turn their attention to Luc Besson's Lucy and figure out what percentage of your brain should be turned off to enjoy it. And finally, they give some quick thoughts on Marvel's latest superhero installment, Guardians of the Galaxy. Is this movie that will change Andrew's mind about Phase 2, or is it just more of the same? Tune in to find out. SHOW NOTES: 0:22 - Intro 2:10 - General thoughts on Calvary 7:50 - General thoughts on Lucy 12:45 - General thoughts on Guardians of the Galaxy 19:50 - Show close DON'T FORGET: You can contact the show by emailing cinemafix@filmgeekradio.com or leaving a voicemail at 336-793-2509.

    Episode #80: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (Part 2)

    Special guest Charlie Nash stopped by for the second part of our Cinema Fix episode on Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and the resulting discussion was pretty bananas. As great as the visual effects are, is performance capture technology ever going to feel timeless? Is the film's bleak tone an appropriate one given the ridiculous nature of the property? How does Matt Reeves' direction elevate poor writing? And what is it trying to say about the nature of violence, and do the climactic moments undermine the intended message? Tune in to find out. SHOW NOTES: 0:22 - Intro 3:05 - Charlie's general thoughts 5:52 - Performance capture technology -- how good is it? 20:06 - Characterization (or lack thereof) 23:32 - The opening scene, apes on horseback 26:53 - The gun control message and tone of the violence 30:06 - Koba and Blue Eyes 37:09 - A hypocritical view of violence? 53:06 - Andrew nitpicks a human reaction 58:49 - Show close DON'T FORGET: You can contact the show by emailing cinemafix@filmgeekradio.com or leaving a voicemail at 336-793-2509.
