2021/12/24

Spider-Man No Way Home, the fourth, and most anticipated of the Marvel Cinematic Universe offerings this year is out and … just, Wow! Despite COVID concerns, and the widely predicted demise of the theater industry, the newest Spidey film is breaking box office records. It also seems to be a critical success, winning over both audiences and reviewers. So I guess that is still possible too. With anticipation, and speculation, at an all-time high this film had a high bar to clear, or perhaps swing

Ghostbusters is high up on the Regular Joes list of favorite films. From the very first teaser for Jason Reitman’s Ghostbusters Afterlife the Joes have been waiting with varying degrees of optimism about what would ultimately be delivered. After, again, COVID related delays, the film is finally here. To cut to the chase, critics hate it, the Joes love it, and if Ghostbusters holds a special place in your heart you should too. Note: there will be SPOILERS. So maybe watch first, listen later. Next up

Episode 413: Marvel Two In One

2021/12/03

This past week Disney+ launched their fourth live action Marvel Cinematic Universe based show. WandaVision was very good but uneven, Falcon and the Winter Soldier was kind of a meandering, missed opportunity and Loki seemed to be going somewhere . . . but then didn’t. So, does Hawkeye finally hit the target? The answer is a clear maybe, sort of, we’ll see. Two episodes in opinions are mixed. There’s a lot of speculation about what we might see, or want to see. But, as we well know, the powers that

2021/11/19

Once you’ve done something twenty-five times getting it right should be pretty much a walk in the park. The Eternals, the newest Marvel Cinematic Universe offering may indicate otherwise. Over the last dozen years Marvel has gone back to the well several times to pull relatively obscure characters such as Ant-Man and The Guardians of the Galaxy to elevate them to high profile hits. As one of the later creations of the legendary Jack Kirby (Captain America, The Fantastic Four etc, etc.) The Eternals

While there are very few certainties in life, it’s pretty darn likely that if there’s a Rhode Island Comic Con the Regular Joes will be there. It’s also a given that as long as there’s a sofa in the Omni Providence lobby the Joes will be making yet another run at their traditional guerrilla talk show. Some years they find many guests, in others it just ends up being a small group of good friends talking about the stuff that inspires, excites and unites them. This year Barry, Dave and Tod are again

The Regular Joes take time out from packing for their (mostly) annual pilgrimage to the Rhode Island Comic Con to check out the recent bumper crop of Trailers and Teasers for, The Book of Boba Fett on Disney+, The Beatles: Get Back on Apple +, House of the Dragon coming to HBO, Sandman and Ozark season 3 on Netflix, and over on Amazon Prime, there’s The Wheel of Time and The Witcher season 2.

Episode 409: Sand Trap: Dune (2021)

Regular Joes Podcast ·

2021/10/29

Directed by Denis Villeneuve, Dune (2021) is the third effort to adapt Frank Herbert’s landmark 1965 novel. After the first cinematic attempt 1984 (too compressed) and a later mini-series 2000 (faithful but slow) failed to do justice to the source material a different approach was needed. Is it possible to spoil a 55 year old story? Let’s just say the execution this time around was clearly ambitious in regard to production … if not in scope. Halloween is a favorite holiday for the Regular Joe’s

Episode 408: James Bond Will Return

Regular Joes Podcast ·

2021/10/22

After nearly 60 years and 25 (official) movies it's safe to say James Bond films have developed certain expectations. You have a disfigured bad guy with a vague accent, an island base, lots of henchmen, and a global threat. Add in some fast cars, the prerequisite beautiful women, and you start to get the idea that No Time to Die, Daniel Craig’s final (he really means it this time) turn as James Bond is just like so many other Bond Films. Only, it’s not. Ok, you know how sometimes the Regular Joes

2021/10/15

This week, the Regular Joes take on 3 new series to see if they are worth the effort...Hulu's Y The Last Man, NBC's LaBrea and CBS's Ghosts. Are they welcomed additions to the fall TV line up or destined to be forgotten at the bottom of a California tourist attraction / tar pit? Dave, Barry and Tod let you know what they think, you can let us know what you think. The boys also run down the lengthy list of movies and shows hitting between now and the end of the year to see what they are most excited

2021/10/08

Fans of Isaac Asimov have been waiting decades for an adaptation of his groundbreaking sci-fi series Foundation. Many have said it’s unfilmable. It certainly is dense and a challenging narrative to translate to the screen. This week the Regular hosts, plus Irregular Joe Brian Mix, take a look at the first episode of Apple’s lavish and ambitious effort to bring the millennium spanning tale to the masses. Or at least to their customers who need something to watch other than Ted Lasso. Brian also takes

DC’s Titans is back for a third season, and now on HBO Max. Which is a big step up from living exclusively on a niche streaming service that no one knew how to find. It’s also freakin awesome. And, frankly the Joe’s would’ve talked about it sooner if Barry had caught up with the episodes. If you haven’t watched there will be at least minor SPOILERS. As previously mentioned the Regular Joe’s got sucked into another Star Trek prop auction. In the unlikely case that you have ever wondered how three

Remember when we would eagerly review the new fall TV offerings, excited for a glimpse of what might be a new favorite show. Those years seem far behind us now ... at least two years behind us. This week the Regular Joe’s rundown the decidedly thin offerings for fall TV. There are a few hopefuls including Apple’s Foundation adaptation, Hulu’s Y the Last Man, La Brea on NBC, and Ghosts from CBS. There are also some returning favorites. Dave is excited for Nancy Drew, Barry can’t wait for season 411

After what seems like a long drought of TV shows and Movies to get excited for, several trailers and teasers have dropped giving even the most cynical of us (Dave) cause for hope. First up there’s Star Trek, lots and lots of Star Trek. The franchise that CBS (now Paramount+) built their streaming platform on the back of is back with more iterations than most of us ever imagined. Lower Decks continues, Discovery is cued up for season 4, Picard returns to tried and true formulas, Prodigy . . . well,

After their two week break the Regular Joe’s are back and we catch up on what they have been doing. Tod seemingly squandered his time getting ready to start his 24th year of school ... and not buying a vintage 240z, while his cohosts took off on their own late summer adventures. Barry opted to make a return Trek to the final frontier, now located in Ticonderoga New York, while Dave visited a Galaxy far, far, away … in Orlando. In yet another instance of consumer codependency they all each received

2021/08/20

For this week’s episode we threw together a band of troublesome lone operators and tasked them with watching and reporting back on The Suicide Squad, an apparent sequel that tries desperately not to be a sequel. Not surprisingly, the usual bad actors, joined by the notorious Derryl DePriest, ultimately completed the mission but failed to achieve overall consensus. Dissenting opinions aside, James Gunn can take a lump of @#$&% and make it awesome. Note there will be SPOILERS like, a giant freakin

For their 400th episode (more or less) the Regular Joe’s dug into the vault and pulled out “episode zero.” Although periodically mentioned, this episode has never been released. There’s some good reasons for that. Which the Regular Joe’s of 2021 point out as they listen to their 2013 selves take a first stab at recording a podcast. This episode contains several notable firsts. Including Dave’s first swipe at Maggie Gyllenhaal, Tod‘s first recorded takedown of Star Trek The Motionless Picture (which

“Everyone is excited about the new Ghostbusters film,” Which, frankly, is a phrase we haven’t been able to say since 1989. The trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife looks incredible. As we creep closer to the film’s November release trepidation over the franchise’s next incarnation is rapidly being replaced by eager anticipation. Who you gonna call? Next up the Regular Joes ask the question, do you add to the collection or do you upgrade? There has never been a time like this for 1/6 scale collectors

Episode 398: Loki, Low Key?

2021/07/23

Ok, so if there is one thing for certain about the Marvel Cinematic Universe based shows streaming on Disney+ we never quite know what we are getting. WandaVision kept people guessing. Falcon and the Winter Soldier was the can’t miss vehicle that somehow never quite got out of Captain America’s giant shadow. And then there’s Loki. What could be better than a series about the charismatic, and occasionally sociopathic, Norse God of Mischief? How about a series about more Lokis that you can, or

Remember way back like 10 years ago when we would wait years or even a decade to see the next film in a franchise released? Marvel changed that giving us as many as four MCU films in a single year . . . until they didn’t. The unbearable 2 year gap between Spider-Man Far From Home (2019) and the long delayed Black Widow is over. The First (female) Avenger’s solo film is finally in theaters, or if you pony up extra cash, in your living rooms via Disney +. This week the Regular Joes weigh in with their

As we move in into a summer that seems to alternate between extremes of very hot and very wet, the Regular Joes catch up on their recommendations for what to watch if you are stuck inside. To the surprise of no one who listens, Tod recommends Evil, formerly on CBS now “the best reason to have Paramount Plus.” Dave makes a pitch for Bosch in it seventh season on Amazon Prime. And Barry gives un update on the Bad Batch on Disney Plus. They also discuss (mostly spoiler free) a pair of films that two of
