The MovieFilm Podcast MovieFilm Podcast

Lots to discuss in our latest MovieFilm show! First up, there's the fascinating new HBO documentary MOVIEPASS, MOVIECRASH and the trailer for Francis Ford Coppolla's self-funded sci-fi opus MEGALOPOLIS! And then it's the main event: FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA is in theaters now and we have plenty of thoughts on director George Miller's long-delayed prequel project! All that, plus Headlines, Listener Letters and more!

It was 45 years ago that Max Rockatansky, as played by a babyfaced Mel Gibson, first hit the deserted roadways of a near future Australia. Sure, he was more miffed than mad in his first big screen go-round, but director George Miller's debut feature MAD MAX made enough of a mark that it's still inspiring devotees nearly a half century after its debut. And with this week's release of FURIOSA, we thought it was a perfect time to dip into the archives and look back to the time when Miller made Mel Mad! 

KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES is sitting atop the box office throne, and we have lots to say in our in-depth discussion about the latest APES adventure! Does it live up to its lineage? Listen for all our thoughts. Plus: New LORD OF THE RINGS on the way whether we like it or not, remembering Roger Corman, and much more! 

THE FALL GUY may be falling below expectations at the box office, but the MovieFilm boys had lots of fun with this year's summer kickoff movie! In addition, we chime in on the first look at David Corenswet all suited up for next year's SUPERMAN! Plus: Headlines, Listener Letters and more! 

With the impending release of a new PLANET OF THE APES adventure, we thought it was a perfect time to dip into the archives and watch an entry from the original APES series. Listen separately or watch along with us as we talk through 1971's ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES, the third film in the cycle and one with a supremely depressing ending! We had a lot of fun while delving into some serious corners, and we hope you'll join us on the journey! 

For our latest commentary track, we talked through 1994's THE FLINTSTONES. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, the Steven Spielberg-produced cartoon adaptation was a summer smash, with the perfectly cast John Goodman and Rick Moranis playing Fred and Barney. Listen separately or watch along with us as we delve into the mists of the Stone Age (or 1994), pointing out behind-the-scenes trivia and other anecdotes along the way!
