In this episode, Roy and Angela sit down to talk about one of their happiest comfort zones in film land: Movie musicals! From childhood classics that raised us, to modern movie musicals that wrecked us in the best way, we go through the films, songs, and scenes that turned us into full time musical geeks.We talk about what makes a great movie musical, how some soundtracks basically became personality traits, which films still hold up on rewatch, and which ones secretly live rent free in our heads. Expect strong opinions, a lot of laughter, some light singing energy, and a very honest chat about why these stories hit so hard.Tell us YOUR favorite movie musical in the comments. Is it a golden age classic, an animated banger, a modern stage-to-screen adaptation, or a chaotic deep cut only you and three people on Letterboxd remember?Cinegeeks Podcast is powered by RØDE and produced by Nerd Heard Studios.🔔 If you enjoy hanging out with us, hit subscribe so you never miss an episode.*********************************************************Connect with the Cinegeeks everywhere:Instagram: @CinegeeksPod – https://www.instagram.com/cinegeekspod/Facebook: Cinegeeks Podcast – https://www.facebook.com/cinegeekspodThreads: @cinegeekspod – https://www.threads.net/@cinegeekspodTikTok: @CinegeeksPH – https://www.tiktok.com/@cinegeeksphX (Twitter): @CinegeeksPod – https://x.com/CinegeeksPodBluesky: @cinegeekspod.bsky.social – https://bsky.app/profile/cinegeekspod.bsky.socialLetterboxd: @cinegeekspod – https://letterboxd.com/cinegeekspod/Website: https://www.cinegeekspod.comEmail for collabs and inquiries: cinegeekspod@gmail.com

What's up, Cinegeeks!We have a massive episode for you today as we are joined by our good friend, the one and only Smash of SmashThatScreen! Together, we're tackling two of the year's most anticipated films. First, we dive into the wicked world of Park Chan-wook’s 'No Other Choice.' We discuss how this savage dark comedy starring Lee Byung-Hun stacks up against the director's legendary filmograpy, and compare its powerful themes of economic desperation to another modern South Korean masterpiece: Bong Joon-ho’s 'Parasite.' Then, we come home to discuss the monumental finale to TBA Studios' historical trilogy, 'Quezon.' Directed by Jerrold Tarog, this 'Bayaniverse' epic sees Jericho Rosales take on the towering and complicated legacy of President Manuel L. Quezon. We explore how the film portrays him not as a flawless hero, but as a charismatic, brilliant, and deeply flawed political operator. It’s a stacked conversation, and you won't want to miss Smash's insights. Tune in!(00:00) Start(02:30) SMASH REPORT: KinoFest 2025 & JFF 2025(16:23) Quezon(51:15) No Other Choice
We're clearing out our watchlist with a massive movie round-up! This week, we're catching up on four of the most talked-about films of the moment, and they could not be more different.First, we plug back into the grid with TRON: Ares. Is this long-awaited sequel a stunning audio-visual masterpiece powered by a Nine Inch Nails score, or is it all style and no substance?Next, we answer the call for Black Phone 2. The franchise takes a huge swing, moving from contained psychological horror to a full-blown supernatural slasher. Does this new direction work, or should The Grabber have stayed on the line?Then, we lighten the mood with Aziz Ansari's directorial debut, Good Fortune. With a high-concept "life-swap" plot and a cast featuring Keanu Reeves as an inept angel, Seth Rogen, and Ansari himself, is this the charming comedy of the year?Finally, we tackle a heavy one: the German documentary RIEFENSTAHL. We discuss this complex, challenging portrait of Leni Riefenstahl—Hitler's infamous propagandist filmmaker—and the new archival material that dismantles her lifelong "apolitical artist" myth.Join us as we break down what's worth your time (and what isn't) in our latest episode!(00:00) Start(02:41) TRON: Ares(21:26) Black Phone 2(36:32) Good Fortune(49:27) Riefenstahl

Dwayne Johnson breaks the mold in The Smashing Machine.Paul Thomas Anderson turns the screws in One Battle After Another.In this week’s Cinegeeks episode, we’re joined by Smash of @smashthatscreen to dig into both films with fresh eyes and hot takes - we dive into two very different rides, one bruised and human, one wired and propulsive. From a real-life MMA legend’s fight outside the cage to a father racing the clock, we’re unpacking performance, craft, and the punches that land after the lights come up, with Smash jumping in on the big swings, the quiet moments, and the stuff that lingers.What’s Inside:• The Smashing Machine - Johnson’s Mark Kerr transformation, Safdie’s raw direction, and why the fallout hits harder than the fists• One Battle After Another - Paul Thomas Anderson’s propulsive rescue odyssey, Leonardo DiCaprio’s desperate father turn, and Jonny Greenwood’s score turning the screwsListen now and tell us which film hit you harder.Roy and Anj also talk about their experience re-watching Avatar: The Way of Water during its limited time rerelease at SM Cinema's IMAX with Laser in this week’s Post Credit Pick!
Kilig, chaos, and that first-love freefall: the Cinegeeks dive into Minamahal: 100 Bulaklak para kay Luna.They lock in on the leads: how Andres Muhlach stays sincere and a bit awkward in all the right ways, and how Ashtine Olviga turns quiet beats into moments that hit, a true breakout you can feel.They ask if the film nails that high school to early college kind of love: the mixed signals, the late night chats, the dumb bravery that makes you leap before you look.
From villain school to colonial voyages, the Cinegeeks take you on a double feature this week! First off, they dig into Kontrabida Academy, Netflix’s new Filipino satire where kontrabidas finally take center stage and the idea of power gets flipped into something sharp, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt. Then they shift gears with Lav Diaz’s Magellan, a three-hour historical slow burn led by Gael García Bernal about the man famous for kickstarting the colonial era in the Philippine Islands. Two very different films, one packed episode.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Start(02:10) Kontrabida Academy(42:35) Magellan
We’re back!!!And we’re diving straight into what might be the final case for Ed and Lorraine Warren. After years of hauntings, possessions, and that creepy damn doll, The Conjuring: Last Rites tries to bring it all to a close. But does it really feel like the end? Or are we just getting more of the same in a shinier package?We also take a quick look back at The Conjuring 1 to 3. Which ones still hold up? Which ones didn’t age so well? And how does Last Rites compare?For this week’s Post-Credit Picks, we’re talking:Together (2025)MaterialistsThe RosesJujutsu Kaisen: Hidden Inventory / Premature DeathGowok: Traditional Kamasutra TeacherYup. It’s a wild mix.
In this episode of the Cinegeeks Podcast, we dive deep into WEAPONS (2025) — the much-hyped horror thriller from Barbarian creator Zach Cregger. Dubbed a “horror masterpiece” by some early viewers, we ask the big question:Is WEAPONS the next horror classic?We talk about what worked (and what broke our brains), how it compares to Barbarian, and why the internet is going wild over this film’s structure.🎙️ Special thanks to D' Original Pares Pares Mami House for hosting us while we recorded this review!
