Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast

Sam Cherington & Will Morey

What is it with *third* movies? Why can"t trilogies ever seem to stick the landing? Why is it Part 3 when franchises gearshift to Tokyo Drifting or Season of the Witching? Why did it take three whole movies for Jason to find his hockey mask?! Join hosts Will Morey and Sam Cherington as they break down the best and worst movies ever made that came after two other movies. Nothing is off limits... they"re watching the good, the bad and the ugly. (Including The Good, the Bad and the Ugly!)

Halloween Ends

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/10/31

Sorry, we got the date wrong. Evil dies tonight! Just in time for Halloween, it's yet another, um, Halloween. Will and Sam watch Halloween Ends, the 3rd/4th/13th chapter in the endlessly retconned saga of Michael Myers. Can this final showdown between Michael and Laurie top all the other final showdowns between Michael and Laurie? Pull on your burned and beat-up Shatner mask and find out!

The Exorcist III

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/10/28

"It's the smiles that keep us going, don't you think...?" Spooky Threequel season continues as Will and Sam talk about 1990's The Exorcist III, a movie that is by design not a Part 3 and only barely a sequel to The Exorcist. But there's still plenty to talk about, including the brilliance of Brad Dourif and George C. Scott, the greatest jump scare in horror history, and how we maybe have Groucho Marx to thank for the entire Exorcist franchise. Music: Backbeat by Kevin MacLeod

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/10/18

Call up the CD-throwing and cocktail-shaking Cenobites, 'cause it's time to party like it's 1992! Will and Sam unlock the oh-so-early-90s gorefest that is Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, a movie that is incredibly dumb yet somehow still one of the better Hellraiser movies. It's a low bar.

Toy Story 3

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/10/10

October is here, but before we can get to the scary threequels, we're watching 2010's Toy Story 3... which honestly is a pretty intense experience. Fortunately, you've got a friend(s) in Will and Sam, as they muse over the movie's timely message about passing our toys (and beloved IP) on to new generations, as well as their own hopes and fears about parenthood and whether or not their kids will like all the same nerdy crap they liked.

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/09/12

This week, Podcast Part 3 is venturing out into the wasteland for a visit to Bartertown. It's time for 1985's Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, George Miller's not-final-anymore entry in the absurdly influential post-apocalyptic Mad Max saga. Spoiler alert: Any movie stuck between The Road Warrior and Fury Road is gonna have a hard time, no matter how much Tina Turner it's got.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/08/29

Remember those movies from the mid-2000s where Kate Beckinsale wore a lot of skintight leather and fought werewolves? (The correct answer is "sort of...?") Turns they made five of them and we're watching the third one, 2009's Underworld: Rise of the Lycans! It's a prequel movie, so no Kate Beckinsale, but instead we get Bill Nighy and Michael Sheen taking bites out of the scenery as we learn the origin of the centuries old blood feud between vampires and werewolves. Be prepared to take notes,

Alien 3

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/08/15

It's time for a look at the Alien saga's gloomiest and most divisive chapter, 1992's Alien 3, a movie that boldly doesn't care if you liked the ending of Aliens. Spend an hour with Sam and Will as they break down what works (Sigourney Weaver, David Fincher) and what doesn't (pretty much everything else). Then stick around as they talk about other random stuff for like 15 minutes! (Music: Backbeat by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/) via Creative Commons license

Three Third Predators

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/08/01

It's a triple feature of Part 3s this week, as Sam and Will face off against the galaxy's deadliest hunter not once, not twice, but THREE times as the Predator franchise tries time and again to restart itself, first with 2004's Alien vs. Predator, then with 2010's Predators and finally with 2018's The Predator. At least Predator 2 isn't ashamed to admit it's a sequel to something. Music: Backbeat by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/) via Creative Commons license

Jaws 3-D

2022/07/19

Summer's here, and Podcast Part 3 is back... coming to you live from SeaWorld! Hope you like endless B-roll of waterskiiers and a lot of out-of-focus camera work, because Sam and Will watched Jaws 3-D, starring Dennis Quaid, Louis Gossett, Jr., Lea Thompson, Manimal, the mom from My So-Called Life, and the most rigid and unrealistic fiberglass shark since... well, Jaws 2.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

2022/06/17

Look what we have made... it's the season finale of Podcast Part 3, and we're wrapping up our Palpatine trilogy with 2019's The Rise of Skywalker! Will and Sam fire up their force dyad to puzzle over the many strange decisions that led to this messy end to the Skywalker Saga. Along the way, Sam nitpicks about lightsabers, Will bangs the table in frustration a lot, and together they have a friendly and respectful discussion about The Last Jedi. (Yes, it can be done!)

Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/06/03

This week, we move forward with Star Wars but also back in time?! We've done Episode VI, so logically Episode III should be next, right?. If you're confused, then congratulations... you're in the prequel trilogy, and we're watching 2005's Revenge of the Sith! Thrill as Palpatine transitions from normal-face Chancellor to monster-face Emperor, while Sam and Will break down Star Wars' "quiet years" before the prequels, and beat a very-dead horse by proclaiming this movie a decent threequel but also a

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/05/27

It is unavoidable. It is our destiny. Welcome to the three-part season finale of Podcast Part 3! It's time for an Emperor Palpatine triple feature, starting this week with 1983's Return of the Jedi... a film from a simpler time, when Star Wars was just three movies, two Ewok Adventures and one Holiday Special. And we liked it that way, dammit. Get off our lawn. Music: Backbeat by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/) via Creative Commons license.

Army of Darkness

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/05/20

Strap on your chainsaw and load up your boomstick, 'cause this week Will and Sam are headed to the Middle Ages to face down 1993's Army of Darkness! After the horror of The Evil Dead and the horror comedy of Evil Dead II, Sam Raimi's third rumination on the dark powers of the Necronomicon is a horror comedy fantasy time travel masterpiece and one of the best and grooviest threequels we've seen yet.

Friday the 13th Part III (in 3D!)

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/05/13

Put on your 3D glasses now! Sam and Will are headed to Crystal Lake for a relaxing weekend with newly hockey-masked Jason Voorhees in 1982's Friday the 13th Part III. Get ready to duck and dodge 3D baseball bats, wallets, joints, eyeballs, yo-yos and more eyeballs as Friday the 13th nails down the slasher formula that would carry Jason through nine more movies. (And by formula we mean sex, death and wandering into old barns and cabins.) Music: Backbeat by Kevin MacLeod

The World's End

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/05/06

This week we're taking a look at thematic trilogies from a single director. And before you worry that we're gonna go all film school on you, relax! Will and Sam watched The World's End, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's followup to Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz in the Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy. Can Wright and Pegg do for pub crawls and body-snatching aliens what they did for zombies and shoot-em-ups? Can you tell a more mature story while staging a bar fight with goo-filled aliens?

Die Hard with a Vengeance

Podcast Part 3: The Part 3 Podcast ·

2022/04/29

It's not Christmas, but that's okay 'cause we're watching the Die Hard that isn't a Christmas movie! That's right, it's time for 1995's Die Hard with a Vengeance... aka the one with Samuel L. Jackson! While John McClane plays the world's hardest game of Simon Says, Sam and Will discuss the evolution of action movies from the 80s into the 90s, delve into the many scripts that got kicked around for Die Hard 3, and break down what makes Bruce Willis such a great action hero.

2022/04/22

Three is the magic number as Will and Sam swing into the Spider-Verse... or at least the Parker-Verse with 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home. Reunite with Peter 1, Peter 2, and Peter 3 as we discuss how the 27th movie (!!!) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe sneakily works as the final chapter in a trilogy AND as a surprise Spider-Man origin story!

Before the MCU, before the DCEU, before the Star Wars Expanded Universe, even before the, um, Dark Universe... there were the Universal Monsters. Join Will and Sam for an old school graveyard smash as they tackle one of the oldest threequels out there, 1939's Son of Frankenstein, starring Boris Karloff, Basil Rathbone AND Bela Lugosi.

It seemed only right that we celebrate our 13th episode with that 80s slasher classic... A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors! (April Fools, Jason!) Stay up late with Sam and Will as Freddy Krueger's franchise finds itself, and see if the Dream Warriors live up to the hype of their sick-ass theme song from Dokken.
