Filmmakers talking about movies because… Well, they would be doing it anyway!
Episode 340: The Crew’s asking for their cheeseburger to go while watching Mark Mylod’s The Menu. This black comedy puts high dollar fine-dining in the pressure cooker, which explodes with themes of class, art, and finding joy in your work. The cast and editing are pretty perfect. The Crew discusses…

Episode 339: The Crew’s doing the Mondoshawan (the aliens in the beginning) Waddle Dance while watching Luc Besson’s The Fifth Element. This big budget French Sci-fi film was a surprise box-office hit in 1997. But does it still hold up? The Crew discusses…

Episode 336: The Crew’s definitely not looking at Frank while watching David Lynch’s Blue Velvet. David Lynch films can be confusing and hard to digest, but Blue Velvet is not one of them. All the ambiguity is in the looks and the performances, and the plot is easy to follow. The film’s opening is one of the best of all time; clearly setting up the themes and tone. The Crew discusses…

Episode 336: The Crew’s staring down Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in the West. This classic delivers all the Spaghetti Western goodies. Everyone is sweating while covered in mounts of dirt, and if you’re lucky, only three other people used the bath water that day. Henry Fonda and Claudia Cardinale steal the show, and Jason Robards adds some much needed comedy. The Crew discusses…

Episode 335: The Crew’s decoding riddles from a sign post while watching Mick Jackson’s L.A. Story. Steve Martin writes and stars in this 90’s comedy that switches from satirical takedown to a love letter to LA. Sometimes smart, sometimes goofy, but always funny. The Crew discusses…

Episode 334: The Crew’s wondering if the unpronounceable name joke was ever funny while watching Carl Reiner’s The Man With Two Brains. This film was the third of four collaborations between Carl Reiner and Steve Martin. After their spoof of film noirs with Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid, they took aim at 50’s sci-fi (Donavan’s Brain, or The Brain that Wouldn’t Die). The jokes are good but the film loses its pace halfway through. And Kathleen Turner steals the film as an evil gold digger. The Crew discusses…

Episode 333: The Crew’s hiding from the mob while watching Herbert Ross’ My Blue Heaven. This early 90’s comedy has a great cast and some big names behind the camera, but it’s largely been forgotten and feels very dated. The Crew discusses…

Episode 331: The Crew’s painting themselves blue after watching James Cameron’s Avatar. Cameron took 12 years to give us another film after the global success of Titanic. And the wait was worth it. The CGI and 3D floored audiences in 2009 and the film went on the become the biggest box-office hit of all time (it’s still the highest grossing film after a couple of re-releases). The Crew discusses…
