Saddle up and join in as Ronald, Steve and John hit the trail for a week’s worth of television and film offerings. We’ve got Westerns and Comics and Galaxies far, far away… OH MY!
Ron, Steve, and John return to the ongoing Watch-em-all series with the next three installments in the Halloween franchise, 1988’s Halloween 4: The Curse of Michael Myers, 1989’s Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, and, from 1995, Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers. It would be simplistic to say that the quality declines as this trilogy of films proceeds, and it would also be correct.
The guys talk about 2022’s “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,” the Nicolas Cage action buddy comedy John chose as this week’s Required Viewing. Then the trailer for Robert Zemeckis’s upcoming effects-driven, time-spanning drama, Here, is discussed. Ronald also digs into his recent physical media purchases, and somewhere in there we call it a show.
This week your Required Viewing assignment is Here for Blood, a gleefully schlocky slasher movie chosen by Steve. Then Ron details some physical media purchases, and the guys discuss recent releases like the charming Glen Powell/Richard Linklater collaboration Hit Man and the fourth season premiere of Amazon's wild and graphic superhero saga, The Boys.
Join in as Ronald, Steve, and John discuss Exhuma (2024), In A Violent Nature, Furiosa, Love Lies Bleeding, and more!
Ron, Steve, and John get their asses away from the Myers house and dig deep in their candy buckets to see what’s up with the boogeyman. My guess is Halloween (1978), Halloween II (1981), and Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) are all in there, and that they get devoured/discussed thoroughly.
Dive in as Ronald, Steve and John navigate a river of topics including 1968's The Swimmer, and two new releases, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes and The Last Stop in Yuma County!
Ronald adds a fresh piece of office furniture to the Schmovie family and then the guys get tangled up in the spider's den of Infested, a creepy-crawly French creature feature selected by Steve. Later on, John talks about The Fall Guy, and Ronald shares some physical media picks for the week. Also, MORE!
Everybody fall in for a loosey-goosey episode of the show! Steve saw Challengers, John watched Baby Reindeer, and Ronald has a few things to say about physical media. The Mufasa trailer is also discussed.
The guys are back to give you the 411 on Norwegian disaster flick The Wave, vampire ballerina bloodbath Abigail, the first 40 minutes of Alex Garland’s Civil War, and the just-released trailer for the MCU’s impending ‘hail Mary’ movie, Deadpool and Wolverine.
Ronald, Steve, and John discuss the newly-released slapstick comedy, Hundreds of Beavers.
On a very special episode, Ronald, Steve, and John celebrate the 4-1-0 with a massive rundown of some of the biggest titles in television and film to make their way through Baltimore. From 12 Monkeys to The Wire to John Waters, and that’s only halfway through the episode. Jump in Hon! Charm City’s-a-callin’!
Ronald, Steve, and John discuss Chowchilla (2023), Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Late Night With The Devil, and more!
Join in as Ronald, Steve and John dive in to one of James Cameron’s game-changing classics, 1989’s The Abyss. And be sure to stick around as they run down new trailer releases and check in with one good thing they each watched in the last 7 days.
In a stunning return to podcasting after a full week away, Ron and Steve and John talk about Elia Kazan and Bud Schulberg’s social satire/black comedy from 1957, A Face in the Crowd. Then they move on to discussing a few recent trailers, before wrapping things up with a round of “What Else Did You Guys Watch,” America’s favorite pastime.
The red carpet has been rolled up, but Ronald, Steve and John hang back and recap the 96th Academy Awards. From there, join in as they discuss 2023’s God is a Bullet and Apple TV+’s new historical drama series, Manhunt.
Some say it’s the end of Peak Television, but there’s a lot of TeeVee out there making a claim otherwise. Join Ronald, Steve, and John as they share what they’ve been watching lately on the small screen, including Shogun, The Curse, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and more!
Shai-Hulud beckoned Ronald, Steve, and John to the sands of Arrakis, and the call has been answered. Join in for a Dune (2021) rewatch and a discussion around Denis Villeneuve’s newest sci-fi epic, Dune: Part Two. All that kicks off after this week’s Required Viewing chit chat around Wes Craven’s 2005 thriller, Red Eye.
On this week's pod Ronald, Steve, and John contemplate this week's Required Viewing pick, 2021's Nine Days, and then move on to a grab bag of reviews, including the new Liam Hemsworth actioner, Land of Bad, a Coen brother film, Drive-Away Dolls, and a new animated Netflix film written by Charlie Kaufman called Orion and the Dark.
Ron, Steve, and John spend way too much time obsessing over their year-end lists of the best new movies they saw, so it’s only fair that you spend a fraction of that time listening to this episode where they excitedly share the results. Find out which of 2023’s crop made the cut and which ones didn’t! See if your faves get a mention! Disagree loudly by arguing into the void! Anything can happen in List Town.
