  • It's Finally THANKSGIVING at the GRINDHOUSE
    Nov 22 2023
    Sixteen years later Eli Roth gets around to setting the table.

    For this year's holiday kickoff to family quarreling guest Web Bist of TRILOGY IN THEORY discusses matters of such import as:

    • Is is reasonable to believe that Patrick Dempsey and Gina Gershon would reside in a small town and not be a couple??
    • How much parental punishment is necessary for teenagers deciding to replace their cracked iPhone on Black Friday?
    • And what should one hose do with the poster Regal Cinemas handed him with the infamous John Carver (who said host didn't even remember)?

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

  • Waiting for THE KILLER with ASSASSINS
    Nov 19 2023
    Patience for a wide theatrical release is in short supply.

    When David Fincher releases a new film... we grab the ethernet cable. In this episode about the battle for artistic compression our guest is David Giannini of OFF SCREEN DEATH and A PODCAST DIRECTED BY. As that latter show last produced a series of episodes on Mr. Fincher's filmography we thought it prudent to bring Dave back... to discuss Richard Donner's ASSASSINS. And while the waiting game is different in tone from new release THE KILLER, both provide a good amount of laughs. But only one has a sweaty Antonio Banderas. Enjoy!

  • After BARBIE We Play w/ TOYS at the SOBER CINEMA
    Jul 26 2023
    Joan Cusack was the Robot Barbie ahead of her time.

    I don't know if that's a spoiler because it was honestly hard to follow Barry Levinson's fever dream passion project TOYS. We debate the creep factor of many things in this film:

    • The use of Robin Williams childlike nature YET AGAIN used as a means of courtship. This time THE PRINCESS BRIDE herself, Robin Wright, is the unfortunate love interest.
    • LL COOL J as The Prodigal Son and ALSO The Master of Disguise (shoutout to Dana Carvey.)
    • And finally... the white privilege of a robot's chosen diet.

    If you want more follow along as we cover the films of 1983 this year and continue 1993 at the movies on our Patreon feed such as the family film BODY OF EVIDENCE!
