Put on your nostalgia glasses, because this one might get controversial. We're talking about Steven Spielberg's Hook. It's a movie that the critics didn't love, but we kids did, damnit! 

Who was right? How has this movie aged? How does Peter Pan age? How does memory work? Are you petty enough to walk up a staircase backwards to maximize hook damage? Did J.M. Barrie say "Lookie lookie, I got bookie!" as he stole this story from a child? 
How does any of this work!?

EP63: Hook (1991)

Here it is: the definitive podcast about the film adaptation of Tracy Letts' August: Osage County. I defy you to prove me wrong on that.

Graham Techler (Panic of '29) joins TV's Kevin & Kat to break down this movie's missteps (and triumphs), its wildly incongruous Kings of Leon theme song, old theatre school stories, and just what the hell Benedict Cumberbatch is getting up to here. And they still find time to answer one very important question: is Meryl Streep good in this movie? The answer may surprise you!

Next time: The Season 1 finale & Mystic Pizza: Origins - Miami Vice, Satisfaction (1988), Baja Oklahoma, and more!!

Nature is speaking

Was haben Adam Sandler und Hugh Grant gemeinsam? Richtig sie sehen beide fantastisch aus. Aber zudem sind sie beide bekannt dafür in mal besseren mal schlechteren Rom-Coms mitzuspielen. Anlässlich des bevorstehenden Valentinstag haben sich Sabi und Lucas die herausfordernde Aufgabe gesetzt, drei, mit Klischees durchzogene, Rom-Coms anzusehen. In dieser Folge werden die Filme Notting Hill, 10 Things I Hate about You, 50 First Dates und weitere behandelt, um den Spuren des romantischen Schauern zu folgen. Seid gespannt was es für Entdeckungen gab.

201: Von Honig-Aprikosen bis Adam Sandler

Pretty woman walkin' down the street
Pretty woman, the kind I'd like to meet
Pretty woman, I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you
Mercy...

A weekly podcast where two self-proclaimed film nerds talk movies. That's right, another movie podcast.

Throughout each episode, we assign point values for different categories to arrive at a final score. Then we surprise our co-host (and our listeners) with the next week's movie. On the last week of every month, we randomly select a film suggestion from our listeners!

We never know what we'll be talking about the next week! Shenanigans ensue.

Where is the purpose in your life
Where is the truth
Do you remember your hopes Your dreams
They are no longer your own
This day is for living your own life
Don't let this world capture your heart
Your passion lost to a thousand themes
Surrendered to the screen
This is not a story
This is not a book this is your life
And this is not a play
Some TV show you've seen
This is real life

Das "Must Listening" für alle Fans von Filmen, Serien und allem anderen Gedöns. Wir verpacken das Ganze mit einer Menge Humor. Also schaltet ein, egal ob Filmnoob oder Filmnerd!
