  • 444 JAWS (1975) Part 2
    Aug 23 2025

    On this episode of The Cine-Files, Steve Morris and John Rocha continue their revisit of 1975's JAWS with Part 2 of their breakdown and analysis of this modern classic in honor of its 50th anniversary. Steve and John did an episode on this film years ago, but are continuing to give it the FULL Cine-Files treatment here. Directed by legendary director Steven Spielberg, the film stars Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw, Lorraine Gray, and Murray Hamilton. Scheider stars as police chief Martin Brody, who, with the help of a marine biologist (Dreyfuss) and a professional shark hunter (Shaw), hunts a man-eating great white shark that attacks beachgoers at a New England summer resort town. Nominated for four Oscars, it won for Best Original Score, Best Film Editing, and Best Sound. It lost Best Picture to One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Steve and John go thru the movie scene by scene to break down the direction, acting, storylines, cinematography, score, action sequences and more.

  • 442 SUPERMAN (1978) Part 3 with The Geek Buddies' Michael Vogel
    Aug 8 2025

    On this episode of The Cine-Files, Steve Morris, John Rocha and writer, producer, and Geek Buddy Michael Vogel wrap up their deep dive into 1978's classic superhero film SUPERMAN with Part 3 of their discussion. We did this movie as our third episode of the show and we thought we'd give it the full, current Cine-Flies treatment in honor of James Gunn's SUPERMAN hitting theaters. The film is directed by Richard Donner and stars Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, Ned Beatty, Valerie Perrine, Marlon Brando and Gene Hackman with an incredible score from John Williams. It depicts the origin of Superman, including his infancy as Kal-El of Krypton, son of Jor-El (Brando), and his youthful years in the rural town of Smallville. Disguised as reporter Clark Kent, he adopts a mild-mannered disposition in Metropolis and develops a romance with Lois Lane (Kidder) while battling the villainous Lex Luthor (Hackman). It was nominated for four Academy Awards and won for Best Visual Effects (Special Achievement). Steve, John and Michael go thru the movie scene by scene to break down the direction, acting, storylines, cinematography, score, action sequences and more.
