Wigging Watchery EP 13: Connie and Carla

For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Josh Parham, Dan Bayer & Daniel Howat to review and discuss Clint Eastwood's latest film "Juror #2," starring Nicholas Hoult, Toni Collette, J. K. Simmons, Chris Messina, Zoey Deutch, Cedric Yarbrough & Kiefer Sutherland. The film had its world premiere at the 2024 AFI Fest last week, where it received solid reviews, but is being unceremoniously dumped in less than 50 theaters by Warner Bros. So what gives? Is this as bad as the studio is making it out to be, or is something else happening here? Tune in as we discuss the acting, writing, direction, awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

"Juror #2"

A film whose brilliant conceit is so simple and compelling we can't believe we've never seen it before, Juror #2 tells the story of a juror whose responsibility it is to assess the guilt of a defendant who he knows is innocent of murder - because it was the juror who did it.

Summoned to serve on a jury and quickly recognising the details of the case, Nicholas Hoult's Justin realises that the deer he hit with his car one dark, stormy night was in fact the defendant's girlfriend, for whose supposed murder he is on trial. So begins a morality play of sorts, Justin wanting to do the right thing and keep an innocent person from prison, but unwilling to expose himself as the real, if accidental, killer.

It's a film that sets two institutions, the family and the court, at war. Justin's wife has a baby on the way, and is there any wrong that can't be justified by the protection of the family? We discuss this in the particular light of director Clint Eastwood's reputation as a lifelong conservative, Mike suggesting that the distrust the film shows towards the legal system, a government institution, has precedent in Eastwood's other work, but its critique of the sanctity of the family is surprising and invigorating.

Juror #2 is a thoroughly engrossing exploration of a terrific idea, and you'll take its questions home with you long after it ends. What would you do? Are you sure?

Recorded on 18th November 2024.

Juror #2 (2024)

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham, Giovanni Lago, Brendan Hodges, Tom O'Brien, and I are here to discuss and review the latest film from Academy Award-winning South Korean filmmaking Bong Joon Ho, his much-anticipated follow-up to his historic Best Picture Oscar-winning film, "Parasite," an adaptation of the 2022 sci-fi novel "Mickey 7," titled "Mickey 17," starring Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo. After numerous delays, clashes with Warner Bros., and the highest budget Bong has ever had to work with, the film had a ton of skepticism heading into it but received positive reviews following its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival. What did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the performances, themes, filmmaking, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

"Mickey 17"

After a little time off, we're back at the cinema to see Bong Joon Ho's sci-fi comedy, Mickey 17, in which Robert Pattinson dies. Repeatedly. Leaving Earth on a spaceship seeking to colonise an icy planet, Pattinson's Mickey is an "Expendable": a disposable worker given lethal assignments, regenerated by a biological printer, and sent out to die again. But when the 17th version of Mickey fails to die at the mandibles of the local fauna, he finds his way back to the colony, only to find that he's already been reprinted as Mickey 18 - and clone coexistence is strictly prohibited.

We're disappointed by what looked like a marvellously energetic, knockabout comedy and social satire from the trailer. Even considering the film's very broad tone, there's too little in the characterisation to really buy in to, a severe lack of pace, and an ending that betrays it. Nonetheless, as failures go, it's an interesting one, playing with plenty of ideas, and featuring more than enough good jokes to support it. Our recommendation of Mickey 17 is far from whole-hearted, but you ought to give it a whirl.

Recorded on 23rd March 2025.

440 - Mickey 17

The guys discuss the film adaptation, MICKEY 17, based on the 2022 science fiction novel by Edward Ashton.
… 

Mickey 7 tells the story of Mickey Barnes, an expendable, that is a body that can be reprinted again and again, who is part of an expedition to colonize and terraform the ice planet Niflheim. The planet is inhabited by cockroach, rolly polly, armadillo like creatures called Creepers, who stand in the way of the colony’s efforts to gain a foothold. On one of his missions into the planet, Mickey 7 falls into a cavern and is left for dead, causing the colony to print a Mickey 8. When Mickey 7 doesn’t die and returns to the colony, the two bodies plot how to keep this multiple pairing unknown while also learning more about the creepers and the colony’s intentions. Themes include: the perils of colonization, and identity. 

… 

The film adaptation was written and directed by Bong Joon-ho (Parasite, The Host, Snowpiercer, Memories of Murder, Okja) and stars Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo. The film is Bong Joon-ho’s eighth feature film and long-awaited follow-up to the multi Oscar-winning Parasite which won Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay and Best International Feature. 
… 

Topics of discussion include the plethora of differences from the novel, a Bong Joon-ho retrospective, the the lack of story and plot within the novel, the thing that author really wanted kept in the film, and whether or not movie theaters are dead.

MMO is talk radio for movie fans with weekly news shows, reviews, previews, and special guests. We celebrate the Oscars by making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. If you love cinema, if you love showbiz, welcome home.

"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.
