279: A Podcast Called FRED - Ahsoka episode 6 discussion

An almost-unrecognizable Nicolas Cage, makes dark comedy out of his character Paul Matthews' attempts to manage his sudden and improbable fame. An exceptionally clever bit of casting for one of the most prolific and recognizable actors working today.

Following the screening, Deadline's chief film critic Pete Hammond, who can also be seen on KCET’s Must See Movies, moderates a Q&A with director/writer Kris Borgli.

Dream Scenario Q&A

With Ridley Scott's Napoleon due for release, we take time to look back at his 2000 historical epic, Gladiator, for our Deep Dive pick this week.  Over in the main reviews we both chat about The Marvels and The Killer, and Andy shares his thoughts on Dream Scenario.  

For a bonus review of Anatomy of a Fall, be sure to head over to the Youtube channel later this week where Andy includes it with this week's clips.

Episode 190: Are You Not Entertained?

Nicolas Cage plays a meme. Not just in real life any more, but now also in Dream Scenario, a quirky fantasy in the mould of Charlie Kaufman and Woody Allen, although nowhere near as funny. Cage's biology professor starts appearing in countless people's dreams for no obvious reason, blankly observing the events within, and soon becomes a minor celebrity - but as his presence in the dreams grows more active, public opinion turns on him.

Dream Scenario flirts with a variety of themes of modern society, such as fame, celebrity, cancel culture, power dynamics in academia, male ego, and the grammar of social media - arguably without meaningfully committing to any of them, but equally arguably avoiding the pitfalls that doing so might create. It dramatises the difference between who a public figure of opprobrium actually is and who the version of that figure is in the minds of the public that reviles him, depicting its angry mob with a mix of horror and amused fascination, but also refuses to indulge in cancel culture whining, explicitly critiquing the anti-woke world of the likes of Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan. (An additional and crucial detail of the film is that, unlike people at the centre of similar real-life pile-ons, Cage's professor has done nothing to instigate the hatred - his presence in people's dreams and behaviour within them is entirely without explanation.)

Dream Scenario is an interesting film that builds on the infamous memeability - memeness? memeitude? - of its star to explore observations and nuances of modern, hyper-online, highly personalised culture. With all that said... we wish it were funnier.

Recorded on 27th November 2023.

Review: Dream Scenario

A DePalmber to ReMalmber reaches its thrilling conclusion as our intrepid director kicks off an action mega-franchise with an opening entry that's far more 'film' than 'flick' -- it's 1996's Mission: Impossible, directed by Brian DePalma, written by David Koepp and Robert Towne, and starring Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Emmanuelle Béart, Henry Czerny, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames, Vanessa Redgrave, Kristin Scott Thomas, Emilio Estevez and Rolf Saxon. This classic of the 90s now takes its rightful place in the ADHD-DVD canon. Somehow, perhaps in viewing it within the context of some of DePalma's broader work, both hosts enjoyed this movie more than ever before on this latest rewatch. All that plus-with bonus-also: Justin's got theatrical field reports on The Holdovers and Godzilla Minus One, and Hayley can't receive gifts.

Other works discussed in this episode include The Boy and the Heron, Godzilla (1997, 2014), Godzilla vs Kong, Friday Night Lights, Fooled Around Fell In Love by Elvin Bishop, Guardians of the Galaxy, Topkapi, and the entire Mission: Impossible franchise.

If you'd like to watch the film before listening to our discussion, and it's not a requirement though in the case of a fine film such as this we do recommend you do, it can be found streaming on Paramount+(with).

We'll be back next week with the first annual Shaqmas celebration on the program, as we honour Hayley's holiday tradition by watching a film starring Shaquille O'Neal on Christmas. This year it's friend and former guest EJ Feddes making his return with an unseen film from his collection: Steel (1997), starring Shaq as John Henry Irons, DC Comics' black Superman. It's... not very good, which should make it lots of fun to talk about, so we'll see you next week at the movies!

ADHD-DVD - 40 - Mission: Impossible

De twintigste aflevering van het derde seizoen van Cinepraatjes, de podcast van Cinemaatjes. Iedereen allereerst een gelukkig nieuwjaar. Vorige aflevering zogen we een verhaal uit de duim en gaf Marino van Liempt ons het idee voor het plot en beloofde ons biertjes wanneer we er iets van konden maken. Dat bierpakket hebben we ontvangen en trekken we open. En dat is niet zomaar een bierpakket, dat is een filnk bierpakket… Een kast van een bierpakket. We hebben ook twee nieuwe maatjes op Patreon nl. Mima Kake en everyth1ng.dies. We hebben zowaar een echt nieuwtje en omdat we het echt nieuws vinden hebben we de jingle weer even afgestoft. Er komt nl. echt een tweede deel van ‘Amsterdamned’ van Dick Maas, de man die we graag eens als gast in de podcast willen hebben. Uiteraard niet alleen een bierpakket, maar ook weer een sonnet van Marino. Dit keer eentje die we makkelijk konden raden. JP keek ‘Thanksgiving’ van Eli Roth. William keek op Amazon Prime de nieuwe film van Emerald Fennell ‘Saltburn’, sterker nog hij keek ‘m zelfs twee keer. JP keek ook nog de nieuwe film met Nicolas Cage ‘Dream Scenario’. We trokken ‘Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back’ uit de kast en hebben het over de blow-periode van zowel Kevin Smith als van onszelf. In onze Special bespreken we onze Top 5 van 2023, zowel films uit 2023 als films die we voor het eerst zagen in 2023. Uiteraard beantwoorden we ook weer vragen van luisteraars over onze goede voornemens voor 2024, het gebrek aan nostalgie voor videobanden, boeken die we graag verfilmd willen zien, de slechtste film van 2023 en welke beroepen we willen uitoefenen in Hollywood.

Episode 303 - The Best Films Of 2023

This week, we get in our heads about 2023's "Dream Scenario." We talk (more) about Nicolas Cage, the movie's funniest and most harrowing moments, and what we would do if this scenario happened to us. Listen now.

EP 242: Dream Scenario

Suitably uncomfortable, Dream Scenario's cynical edge on a high-end premise paired with Nic Cage's committed performance is worth a watch.

"I have this romantic idea of the movies as a conjunction of place, people and experiences, all different for each of us, a context in which individual and separate beings try to commune, where the individual experience overlaps with the communal and where that overlapping is demarcated by how we measure the differing responses between ourselves and the rest of the audience: do they laugh when we don’t (and what does that mean?); are they moved when we feel like laughing (and what does that say about me or the others) etc. The idea behind this podcast is to satiate the urge I sometimes have when I see a movie alone – to eavesdrop on what others say. What do they think? How does their experience compare to mine? Snippets are overhead as one leaves the cinema and are often food for thought. A longer snippet of such an experience is what I hope to provide: it’s two friends chatting immediately after a movie. It’s unrehearsed, meandering, slightly convoluted, certainly enthusiastic, and well informed, if not necessarily on all aspects a particular work gives rise to, certainly in terms of knowledge of cinema in general and considerable experience of watching different types of movies and watching movies in different types of ways. It’s not a review. It’s a conversation." - José Arroyo.

"I just like the sound of my own voice." - Michael Glass.

They will also tackle just released, under-the-radar, and bad films, all while drinking different tasty local beers every week. Films, Beers, Talking.
