23 - The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

The boys are back discussing Wes Anderson's 2001 film about hating your dad and wanting to smash with your hot not-sister (?). We get into fake New York City, bird ransom, the secret sauce that is Owen Wilson and enjoy some Hulk Hogan style lying from Alec Baldwin. Also discussed: Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, Upgrade, The Phoenician Scheme, The Lighthouse and the films of Ken Russell. We will be back next week with Tim's birthday episode where we will be taking Guillermo del Toro's brutal 2021 noir Nightmare Alley, a movie about the love of lying to people for money.

22 - Results (2015)

The boys are back this week for one of Ben's all timer favorite romcom's, Andrew Bujalski's beautifully demented look at love and personal training, "Results". We talk about Bujalski's catalog, this movie as a response to "Computer Chess" being called mumblecore, marvel at how great all of the performances are and get into genre tropes and how hard this movie subverts them. Like "The Beast" last week, we love this movie and hope this gets you to check it out. Also discussed: Funny Ha Ha, The Invisible Man, Point Blank, Step Brothers, Wolf Man, Aliens and Titanic PLUS reaction to the first trailer for "Resident Evil". We will be back next week with another love movie, this time about loving your sister (?) and hating your dad: Wes Anderson's 2001 masterpiece "The Royal Tenenbaums". Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme music. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

21 - The Beast (2023)

Tim and Ben continue the Spring of Love with another low budget, sci-fi romance horror (?) Bertrand Bonello's brutal 2023 film "The Beast". We dig into the insane generation spanning plot, marvel at the beast mode level acting performances, question how much this actually adapts from the Henry James novel that suggested it, grumble over having to stream the end credit stinger to your phone and Ben reports back on the movie Bonello made while waiting out Covid "Coma", which is much less good! "The Beast" is really something special and hopefully you check it out if you haven't seen it already. Also discussed: The Terror, Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World, The Informant!, Mother Mary and Vox Lux. We will be back next week talking about Andrew Bujalski's delightfully subversive 2015 romcom about using the gym to avoid confronting your problems, "Results". Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme song. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

20 - A Man and A Woman (1966)

Tim and Ben really shake up the format this week and talk about a pleasant movie with a happy ending, Claude Lelouch's dreamy 1966 romance "A Man and A Woman". We get into the fly by night production, debate the possible themes in the cornucopia of film stocks, Ben loses it over talented women acting with their faces and Tim offers some valid criticism to go with Ben's gushing. Also discussed: Michael Clayton, John Wick 4, Constantine, Dune pt 1, Minority Report plus another Crimson Desert check-in. The Spring of Love continues next week about movie that is going to make you feel BAD, Bertrand Bonello's 2023 sci-fi romance horror (?) "The Beast". Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme song. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

19 - Solaris (1972/2002)

The boys kick off The Spring of Love proper with a beefy double feature of Andrei Tarkovsky's arthouse sci-fi tale of love and loss along with the confusing but interesting remake by our boy Soderbergh. We talk about Tarkovsky's beef with Kubrick and 2001, filmmaking in the USSR and how not very different it was from the West, explore the depths of hatred author Stanisław Lem had for both adapations and marvel about how Hollywood got together to make sure George Clooney's nude ass could appear in a PG-13 rated movie. Also discussed: Bad Day at Black Rock, Apocalypto, Ad Astra, Intersteller, The Drama (spoiler warning) plus the Larry McMurty novel Lonesome Dove and the new game from Pearl Abyss Crimson Desert. We will be back next week when we go back to 1966 for Claude Lelouch's gorgeous romance "A Man and a Woman". Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme music!

18 - The Wrestler (2008)

With Tim in Ireland Ben enlists a tag team of special guests, returning champ Nick (Nyid07) and Jeremy (jmball321) to talk Darren Aronofsky's 2008 masterpiece "The Wrestler". We get into the coolness of pro wrestling, the world that the movie captures in downright uncanny detail, Aronofsky as the dumb guy GOAT, suggest Necro Butcher matches to watch on YouTube and of course we remember so many guys. Also discussed: Stone Cold, The Truman Show, Project Hail Mary, The Alabama Solution, Den of Thieves, Killers of the Flower Moon and the work of Jean Claude Van Dam along with so much more. The Spring of Love will kick off next week when Tim returns for us to talk both the original and the remake of Solaris. Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme song. Support local wrestling where you live. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

17 - Army of Shadows (1969)

The boys are back with another episode before Tim left in the first place. This week we are talking one of the coolest to ever do it, Jean-Pierre Melville and his brutally personal mangum opus "Army of Shadows". We dive into another tortured production, talk about the near semi-autobiographical nature of the French Resistance capering, how Le Wokeism kept this movie from most of the world for over 40 years and talk about why every director you think has made cool movies since the 70s probably was influenced by Melville to some extent. Also discussed: Brawl in Cell Block 99, Sometimes I Think About Dying, Paris 13th District plus we both saw Return to Silent Hill and boy does it suck major ass! Ben will return next week with a tag team of special guests to talk Darren Aronofsky's 2008 masterpice "The Wrestler". Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme music.

Rerun - The Counselor (2013)

With Tim in Ireland we are back this week with an episode from the old show where we dig into Ridley Scott and Cormac McCarthy's utterly insane 2013 film "The Counselor". Everyone knows this movie sucks but this podcast presupposes that notion.... maybe it's actually awesome? We will return with a new episode next week, the schedule for April will be: Army of Shadows (Melville, 1969) The Wrestler (Aronofsky, 2008) Solaris (Tarkovsky/Soderbergh, 1972/2002) A Man and a Woman (Lelouch, 1966) Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme music.
