    Independence Day (1996) - Roland Emmerich's Earth Day Extravaganza

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we fire up the grill and celebrate Independence Day, the blockbuster that dominated the box office during the summer of 1996! With monument-destroying aliens and one of the greatest presidential speeches in movie history, this film delivers spectacle on an epic scale. We discuss how this film helped cement Will Smith's movie-star status, why some of the special effects hold up better than others, and how seeing the film in Washington DC made the experience even better. Plus, hear which part of the film we think should be completely cut as part of a script stitch up.

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, Reggie and Isaiah revisit Jurassic Park, the blockbuster that inspired Reggie to become a scientist. We discuss how Spielberg's masterful direction, groundbreaking visual effects, and John Williams' iconic score made this film something that holds up even after more than 30 years.

    Disclosure Day (2026) - We Are Not Alone ... in Wanting a Better Script

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we are joined by the hosts of the Vaguely Nerdy Podcast to discuss Disclosure Day, the alien-contact film that had all of us excited long before it ever reached theaters. We debate the film's biggest strengths and weaknesses, rank our favorite Spielberg alien movies, and even discuss if we've experienced a real-life alien encounter ourselves. We also explore why the film's fascinating premise and strong performances never quite overcome its clunky script. Was Disclosure Day worth the wait, or is it another reminder that a great premise can only carry a film so far? Tune in as we disclose the truth about this film. Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠

    Bumblebee (2018) - The Smaller Iron Giant?

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we revisit Bumblebee, the Transformers movie that brought a smaller, more character driven story to the screen. Set in the 1980s, the film follows Charlie and Bumblebee as they form a friendship that feels like a mashup of E.T. and The Iron Giant. We discuss why the smaller scale works so well, how Hailee Steinfeld carries the emotional core of the story, and why Bumblebee himself is more expressive here than in the entire Michael Bay series combined. Tune in as we discuss this robot-car coming-of-age story. Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠

    Hook (1991) - Rufio, Rufio, Ru-Fi- Oh No!

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we revisit Hook (1991), Steven Spielberg’s sequel to the Peter Pan story that asks a surprisingly grown-up question: what happens when Peter Pan grows up? We discuss Robin Williams’ journey from work-obsessed father back to the Pan we all know, Dustin Hoffman’s delightfully theatrical Captain Hook, and why the film hits very differently as an adult than it does as a child. We also talk about the imaginative production design and whether Spielberg’s emotional core overcomes some of the movie's rougher edges. Is Hook the flop that people say it is, or should you give it a watch? Tune in to find out! Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠

    Princess Mononoke (1997) - Where There’s a Wolf, There’s a Way

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we review Princess Mononoke, Hayao Miyazaki’s epic fantasy about humanity, nature, and the impossibly difficult task of trying to do the right thing when others yearn for fighting. We discuss the breathtaking animation, the morally complex characters in Iron Town and the forest, and why Ashitaka may be one of the most genuinely noble protagonists we’ve ever covered on the show. Plus, we talk about why this film is so much better than the films it inspired. Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠

    Akira (1988) - Oh, Kaneda!

    In this episode, we review Akira, the groundbreaking cyberpunk anime that changed animation forever. We break down the film’s jaw-dropping animation, why the iconic bike slide still gets copied decades later, and how Akira helped shape everything from The Matrix to modern sci-fi anime. We also discuss the friendship and rivalry between Kaneda and Tetsuo, the film’s themes of power and corruption, and why the atmosphere of Neo-Tokyo feels so alive and dangerous. Tune in as we dissect one of the most influential animated films ever made! Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠

    Aladdin (1992) - When You Wish Upon a Star Casting

    In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we revisit Aladdin (1992), the Disney classic powered by unforgettable music, fun characters, and one of the greatest voice performances in film history. We spend a lot of time celebrating Robin Williams’ Genie, whose improvisational energy completely transformed animated movies and elevated Aladdin into something magical. Plus, we have an important discussion about genie-wish strategy: if you found a magic lamp, what are the smartest wishes you could actually make without getting tricked? Here's a preview: vague wording around immortality is probably a terrible idea! Tune in! Follow us on ⁠BlueSky⁠
