2015/08/28

Did you know that the word 'dinosaur' actually means 'Awful Terrible Lizard'? Or something like that? And what does 'UCB' mean, is that code for something top-secret (or something totally not)? And what happens when one has to change their name to not sound like a former child star turned pop disaster? If any of these questions interest you, then you may want to take a listen to this conversation with the lovely and talented actress LINDSAY ELIZABETH HAND. Currently, Lindsay can be seen in the

Episode 23.3: SLAVOJ ZIZEK - Cinema & Ideology

2015/08/15

What do Hitchcock, Kung-fu Panda, Revenge of the Sith, Tarkovsky and They Live all have in common? Nothing. Except, maybe, that the power of artistic expression influences a bearded guy who looks and sounds like he's done possibly some drugs... by that we mean the drugs of KNOWLEDGE. And analysis. And ideologies. And Coca-Cola. Join us for a discussion of Slavoj Zizek, and the two films directed by Sophie Fiennes that feature him most prominently: THE PERVERTS GUIDE TO CINEMA and THE

What do William Shakespeare and Stanley Kubrick have in common? Aside from being two of the top people in their respective plains of theater and cinema? How about men's rise to power? How to get it, how to hold on to it? What it means to *be* something? Here, Jack and Andrew take a look at stories involving men like Redmond Barry (cum Barry Lyndon), Marc Antony and Brutus, who looked at where they were and thought, 'Hmm... what to do now...' Oh, and by the way, we have a returning director -

PARENTAL ADVISORY NOTICE (fy) for Explicit Language... Check out the big-movie-watching brain on Andrew! This time, for the first time since the first Two-Minute-Movie-Mile, Andrew sees more movies than Jack, but altogether the movies discussed go from auteurist spectacles in blockbuster form (Coppola and Nolan) to animated films (Wes Anderson and Miyazaki). Before this, Jack and Andrew discuss the Fox's FAN4TASTIC fiasco, and the trailer for Tarantino's HATEFUL EIGHT. Films discussed: THE

Once again Jack hogs the mic, but only after the 34:15 mark into ‘Marathon’ mode. As for the films Jack and Andrew saw together, it’s both the highest and lowest of cinematic

Movies need music sometimes. Or much of the time. For some filmmakers, their works won't fly without the melodies the composers work for them. People like John Williams. Danny Elfman. Nino Rota. Trent Reznor. Jonny Greenwood. Miklos Rosza. And of course Bernard Herrmann and Ennio Morricone. These and more are discussed on this very MUSICAL episode of the show. Oh, and we make a theremin joke. Spoilers. (Also, there was an audio issue during recording, which is why our voices sound not

2015/07/10

So, question to ask: is Gone with the Wind racist? Should it be banned? Should that even be a real question (given that it's the highest grossing film - still, of all time adjusted for inflation)? But what about historical context? Or, for that matter, the AFI top 100 lists? Wait, what about that last part? Jack and Andrew in the main discussion on this episode of the Wages of Cinema discuss the recent (not really) controversies that have spiked sales of the classic David O. Selznick

Lots of movies, both new and classic, some hardcore auteurs to discuss (Herzog, Bergman, Dreyer, PT Anderson), including some tough 90's flicks, war movies (not of the conventional kind), and much much more.

Men at the crossroads. Lancelot of the Lake. Robert Dupea. Worlds involving the Round Table with daring-do in England, and the existential desolation of oil and cold south-north-west coast. Sword fights and disagreements over toast. Chivalry and piano. CINEMASCOPE and BBS. Here we got a film that may have not been seen like Sword in the Stone or Excalibur, but it's worth talking about another Arthurian cinematic adaptation nonetheless for Jack.

Then at around the 8 minute mark we get to talking about new/classic movies we've seen with two minutes a piece. We go across from new blockbusters to Harold Ramis comedies to Charles Laughton, to Bela Tarr, James Gunn and Satyajit Ray (the latter gets 4 mins).
