    Lives of Crime - The Asphalt Jungle (1950)

    We may have bitten off more than we can chew for what we hoped to complete by the end of the year but we’re finally back to a rotating theme that will likely encompass 2027 as well. Once again it’s time for our “LIVES OF CRIME” series and we’ve been hankerin’ since we did the James Cagney block and are finally able to get back into it. For this chunk’s crime theme we’re gonna need a few decent heavies. Preferably ones we can trust, which are non existent. We’re talking about HEIST MOVIES for this LIVES OF CRIMES five movie collection that we’re calling “YOU’RE NEVER OUT” because you’re never out. Once a crook always a crook. We kick it off with comfortable territory with a nice piece of classic film noir directed by John Huston who had already well made his bones in Hollywood. We’re talkin’ “THE ASPHALT JUNGLE” from 1950 starring Sterling Hayden, Sam Jaffe and a fresh faced upcoming starlet by the name of Marilyn Monroe. Crackers, crooks, crooked cops and little bit of good old fashioned, All-American copaganda. Seek it out and then hear us out. Get the job done.

    New Stuff - Masters of the Universe (2026)

    We wrap up our NEW STUFF SHOWCASE with the only movie in the bunch that didn’t hit that box office mark. We don’t mean to rub it in but maybe 80’s nostalgia has its ceiling. We caught MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE on a freshly dropped stream just six weeks after its theatrical release. Mattel cashed in huge with Barbie so now Prince Adam gets the treatment. In fact, they stick him in a soul sucking HR job daydreaming about some insane fantasy land from his childhood. Sound familiar? That’s you, man. He’s you. You f*****g loved He-Man so much and you used to play with the toys and pretended you were kicking it with Man-At-Arms, fighting Beast Man and making out with Orko. But here you are at your humdrum job with nothing left but cartoon landscapes in your mind. Can’t afford a house despite making 3x what your parents made growing up. How is this s****y burger twenty-five bucks? Straight of Hormuz? How about sending me to the Straight of He-Manz over in Eternia so I can get away from this dipshit life. Goddammit just let me be a Smurf, a Snork, a Gummy bear…ANYTHING! HELP ME!   Credits “Master of the Universe” by Hawkwind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcWsq4RGXgk&list=RDTcWsq4RGXgk&start_radio=1 “Kill v.

    New Stuff - Project Hail Mary (2026)

    We’re going through a NEW STUFF SHOWCASE and finally hitting up some fairly recent releases and this hit charmed the britches off of audiences when it released in theaters a few months ago. America’s Official Quirky Hunk and Modern Nice Guy Everyman, Ryan Gosling, stars in one of this year’s biggest hits, “PROJECT HAIL MARY”. Ryan plays Dr. Grace a middle school science teacher  who has to go light years into space to figure out why the sun is dying. He’s not expected to come back alive but when he encounters sentient extraterrestrial life then anything becomes possible. Grace and the alien must be really cute together until they can finally solve the mystery of the Astrophage. We’re nice and loose in this no notes discussion of a movie we’ve yet to hear anyone shit on. It’s the Little Rock guy. Rocky. Everyone loves him. Cuter than Baby Yoda IMO. He should co-host the next Academy Awards with Baby Yoda. You know that would be a monster ratings draw. Get it done, Academy. I just gave you money for free.   Credits “Black Sun” by Saluki: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XMqSa3ECPc&list=RD8XMqSa3ECPc&start_radio=1 “It Ain’t Easy” by David Bowie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnI_ko3_r_c&list=RDOnI_ko3_r_c&start_radio=1   IG: https://www.instagram.com/theprojectorsshow/   Subscribe to THE PROJECTORS on YouTube and podcast for a plethora of movie discussions as well as weekly repostings of our very first movie podcast “Documenteers” and much much more!
