Ewan reports back from the Zurich Film Festival with reviews for A Real Pain, Memoir of a Snail, Conclave, We Live in Time, Blitz, The End, and the award-winning Black Box Diaries. Lachlan finished Stalker and continued his deep dive into Andrei Tarkovsky's filmography with Solaris. They discuss the historic flop of Joker: Folie à Deux, a potential second season of Obi-Wan with Ewan McGregor and Christopher Nolan's next movie. Finally, they review The Apprentice by Ali Abbasi starring Sebastian Stan & Jeremy Strong.
202 - The Substance, Lionsgate & AI, and Netflix Geeked Week
Ewan and Lachlan talk Emmies, lineups for the film festivals in Zurich & Gent, and the trailers for Mickey17, Blitz, and Brothers. Ewan got reviews for The Penguin, Agatha All Along, Transformers One, Wolfs, The Wild Robot & Rebel Ridge and Lachlan has thoughts on Lionsgate usage of Generative AI. Finally, they review the disgusting (complimentary) instant horror classic The Substance with Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley.
2024 Most Anticipated
Ewan, Lachlan, and Kevin go over the release date calendar for 2024 and tell you what they are looking forward to the most. From Dune Part II, Mickey 17, and Nosferatu to a fourth Despicable Me movie I guess... there are a ton of sequels, prequels, and spin-offs as expected but also a bunch of exciting filmmakers premiering their work this year.
