Pre-Globes Gambling Preview w/ David Long! - ORC 12/19/23

"Maestro" had its world premiere at the 2023 Venice International Film Festival, where it competed for the Golden Lion. It is the second film to be directed by Academy Award-nominee Bradley Cooper following "A Star Is Born" and features him and Academy Award-nominee Carey Mulligan transforming into Leonard Bernstein and his wife, Felicia Montealegre. The two were kind enough to spend a little bit of time talking with me about their work on the film, and I also got the chance to speak with the film's Costume Designer, Academy Award-winner Mark Bridges. Dan Bayer also interviewed Academy Award-winning Supervising Sound Editor Richard King. All three interviews can be listened to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now streaming on Netflix and is up for your consideration in all eligible categories at the 96th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Costume Design and Best Sound. Thank you, and enjoy!

A Behind The Scenes Look At "Maestro"

"Flamin' Hot" premiered at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival, where it received positive reviews and was later released on Hulu and Disney+ over the summer. Academy Award-winner Diane Warren has been nominated at the Oscars 14 times in competitive categories. This year, she's shortlisted for writing the song for the film titled "The Fire Inside," performed by Becky G. Nominated already by the Society of Composers and Lyricists and Hollywood Music in Media, she could very well earn her 15th competitive nomination this year for the song which has over 2 million views on YouTube. Warren was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about her work on the song, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to stream and is up for your consideration at the 96th Academy Awards for Best Original Song. Thank you, and enjoy!

The 96th Academy Awards are over. Another awards season is behind us, and it was indeed a night to remember with some tight races, deserved wins, and a respectful ceremony that honored the nominees and the art of cinema. We witnessed powerful, moving speeches, shocking wins, and memories that will last a lifetime. Daniel Howat, Ema Sasic, and Alyssa Christian reacted to the winners moments after the ceremony ended last night, while Will Mavity and Cody Dericks joined me the following day to discuss the show too. I combined both conversations together for your enjoyment. Join us as we go over our reactions to the winners, their speeches, and what we thought of the show overall, including Jimmy Kimmel's opening monologue, the musical performances, in memoriam, and more. Please listen to the podcast below or subscribe to it. We want to give a massive shoutout to everyone in the NBP Film Community who has supported us through another awards season. Thank you, and enjoy.

Chris Gore was an amazing interview. If we asked him about his origin story, he’d also teach us how to be on TV. If we asked him about his career, he’d also teach us how to write books. And when we asked him about his time on G4 & Attack of the Show, Chris Gore spent over an hour taking us behind the scenes of his upcoming documentary, Attack of the Doc! Thank the gods we asked.

Chris Gore has been an inspiration to us, and to be frank, our show owes a huge debt of gratitude to his work in print, on Film Threat, and of course,  Attack of the Show. So it was an absolute thrill to chat with Chris about what inspired him to attack this doc. The conversation may begin with his origin story and focus on his new filmmaking endeavor. But we also hit on a ton of fascinating topics like the state of social media to when nerd culture went mainstream to Marvel to Star Wars to indie film, all the way to a new DVDuesday!

Attack of the Doc, the kickstarter & upcoming patreon campaigns put into practice what Chris Gore preaches. He’s truly incorporating the audience & “reassembling the fans from Attack of the Show” to make this movie as special as its subject. Please consider supporting Mr. Gore on this adventure. With all the podcasts, videos, and extras included by donating even a single dollar, you won’t regret it.

For more information, please visit the websites or any of Chris Gore’s social media via Attack of the Doc, Film Threat, or follow him everywhere at ThatChrisGore. If you’re late to the kickstarter, that’s ok. He’ll be starting a patreon with all of the same perks, and you can join in on the fun.

Do let us know if you become a patron of Attack of the Doc! We’ll happily shout you out on our social media and on MMO. If you’re enjoying our show, then you’re certainly in for a treat if you seek out Chris Gore via the marvelous Film Threat website and his Film Threat Podcast. Please rate & review both our shows on Apple Podcasts. Just click on our show icons, scroll down a few seconds in your App, and please click that fifth star.
