2023 and the holiday season may be coming to a close, those things are true and time is relative. But before that all takes place, I want to look back at the latest and potentially greatest season horror movie to come out. Thanksgiving is not a very movie-laden holiday outside of Spider-Man, Black Friday, and not this spooky slasher named aptly for the same holiday, Thanksgiving. So if you like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer but want even more seasonal specific r...
It may not be a stellar entry for the DCEU. But somehow it encapsulate the ups and downs and the best and worst of the not so long-standing franchise. If nothing else, the Flash movie exists. This is a movie that has been long expected and gone through multiple ideas and revisions as the future looked bright-ish for this latest cinematic universe and now it looks dead in the water. The hype going into it was unbelievable, fans and the entirety of the DCEU was counting o...
It is another catchup episode of Nick Nack Goes to the Movies, and thank goodness they say good things come to those who wait. It may not be as new to theaters, but we have a jam packed triple feature here. Timely considering I just did a double feature of back to back movie viewings at Marcus Theaters. Not the Barbenheimer cinematic event, this is something more casual.So you wanna know what I am talkin here? Do ya? Well it is these cinematic beauties, or are th...
Well hey you, long time no chat? But now is the time to get reacquainted with one another as well as some of the movies that have been around the theater scene. If you like video game adaptations and want to see another Jack Black musical bop, well good, we are talking about The Super Mario Bros. Movie . If you like nerdy things, Chris Pine, and nerdy adaptations, we got Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Lastly, if you want to see if lightning can strike twi...
The Scream franchise has a special place in my heart. It may not be the scariest franchise out there, in fact, I can almost guarantee it is not, but it does something nothing else has really come close to. It takes a genre in slashers that people love and it plays with that notion of film lovers, it puts them in the movie. It has fun with the tropes of the genre without outright mocking them. This movie franchise references other horror franchises in a love letter to t...
After every non life-threatening medical issue ever to start off 2023 and some work travel, we are back baby. Back on your podcast airwaves, back with season 4, and Nick Nack is indeed back to theater for some movies. We ended last season with a Marvel movie so now we have to start this one with, you guessed it, another Marvel and specifically MCU movie. A ton of fun movies came out at the end of 2022, but I had to talk about the start of Phase 5 with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Q...
It is time to say goodbye to the MCU, well Phase 4 at least. Let's be real, we know of at least 2 more phases in the works. But Black Panther: Wakanda, or Black Panther 2 is the end cap of big screen movie entries for this phase, of course we have Disney Plus shows and a few seasonal specials. So this is the perfect time to recap one of the more highly anticipated entries of this phase. We of course we all excited for the latest Spider-Man entry, but this had to be rig...
There is a lot of change afoot for DC Comics in regards to their live-action presence. First the DCEU now just the DC Universe. That "The World Needs Heroes" trailer that had one independent project and 3 DCEU projects was quickly short-changed to just the well-received The Batman movie and only this one movie, Black Adam, came out in this year. The last of these DCEU, now just DCU movies, The Suicide Squad, came out all the way back in late July in 2021. With al...
Another episode is here just in time to ring in and close out the greatest time of the year, this Halloween eve you can celebrate the season in 2 unique ways with 2 franchises. Want some family friendly fun? Check out the sequel almost 30 years later, Hocus Pocus 2 and all the bewitching fun that may or may not bring. And after that, for a nightcap for something a bit scarier, you can hear how the 5th continuity timeline for this 13 movie series ends. All things Michae...
Another spooky vampire or otherwise horror movie out and about, and here I and this podcast are to talk all about it! Will you accept this invitation to this episode about the newest thing to sink your teeth into, The Invitation? This episode has everything you could want. Horror things, references to gothic architecture and Hallmark movies, romance, and a debate about the multiple portrayals of vampires and zombies in modern media. But most importantly, this is a piec...
While August and all of the summer blockbusters are mostly behind us, I wanted to take one long overdue look at some of the early August movies to grace theaters everywhere, especially my default one, Marcus Theaters. So this episode, it is time for you to catch a ride on the Bullet Train and hope you don't leave a trail of too many Bodies, Bodies, Bodies along the way. On one hand, you have a certified bop that should be considered one of the best summer movies of the seaso...
Another scary movie, and you know what that means? Yes, I had to talk about it, especially with the Jordan Peele name on it, that is like the seal of approval for the genre these days. And with it comes the movie trip to see the latest of these, Nope, with a few friends on the show as fellow Nopers to give not only their Letterboxd ratings, but also, all of us try and come up with the moral or message of the movie. That may be hard here with there being so much you can take ...
On this episode of Nick Nack Goes To The Movies, we have another mixed bag of horror and super hero content. And likewise, the mix not only includes genres, albeit ones you loyal listeners are super familiar with, the blend of scares and supes. The big mix is once again expectations. A big budget MCU movie, the juggernaut of movies and now shows with Disney Plus, versus a short story adaptation with one name brand actor to that movie's roster. Ethan Hawke is a fine act...
Welcome to another episode of Nick Nack Goes To The Movies. With nothing crazy coming out that I was dying to dedicate to a whole episode. I wanted to tackle a longstanding horror franchise that had been on my desk for ages, in the early inception of this podcast. And with the day that it was, I was curious for a 4th themed horror something or another too. And we did I Know What You Did Last Summer already, so it was time for this franchise to have a Final Destination ...
This episode of Nick Nack Goes to the Movies takes one the newest entries in some late 80's and early 90's classics. The 6th and potentially final movie end-capping the second dynamic dinosaur trilogy, Jurassic World: Dominion, and the sequel that nobody anticipated ever coming, Top Gun: Maverick. So, the theme of this episode quickly became how different franchise have come back to make a sequel entry. For Jurassic Park World, it was the end cap of a second trilogy, for Top...
It is time loyal listener for another super-stuffed episode of this pop-culture podcast. This episode of Nick Nack Goes to the Movies is all about the Black Mirror franchise. In the spirit of long lasting franchise marathon binges, we have given this the American Horror Story treatment. I got through all 22 movies/episodes in two weeks and here we are. If you want to be horrified by technology that seems far off, but shockingly isn't, if you want to reflect on the worl...
The latest from Marvel and the Cinematic Universe is here! And while that could also be applied to Moon Knight on Disney Plus. I am actually referencing the latest MCU movie to come out, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The latest of these movies to hopefully provide more clear concrete direction for the MCU, spoiler alert, it does not. But what it does do is blend the horror and super hero genres fairly well, even though I would have obviously been cool wi...
It is time for another magical episode about a film franchise, albeit not as long standing or even particular sturdy one. While we all want to talk about multiverses and strange doctor men, first I gotta get my notes out there to you on not only the latest Fantastic Beasts film, Secrets of Dumbledore, but also the middle less than stellar entry, The Crimes of Grindelwald, and of course the original. So let's take a trip all the way back to 2016 when we were just excited for Eddie ...
On the latest episode of this movie review podcast, I am not gonna recommend this one. I like super hero things, and I like horror things. Hypothetically this sounds like it would be a power blend of both genres with the latest Marvel adaptation, Morbius. That being said, this movie was not it. And honestly, kind of what you expected from the trailers. There is a dance scene that tries to rival the Spider-Man 3 monstrosity, but that was devastating in the best po...
It's time for another super hero movie, and you know I had to get my The Batman fix on ASAP! Is it the best of the caped crusader's live-action representations? If not, it sure has one of the most intriguing casts for one of these with the likes of Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright, Andy Serkis, and Colin Farrell to name a few. This gritty and dark version, those words may sound similar, and no this is not part of the DCEU, but this is the best version of Gotham ...
