Early Access: Movie Catch-up - March 2024
🕑 Added 2024-03-25 17:26:28 +0000 UTCHey everyone, here's the latest movie catch-up! This ended up being a milestone episode for two reasons. One, it's probably the longest and most diverse list of films we've ever discussed on an episode. Two, we probably got the angriest we have ever been discussing a movie on the show, which was one sent to us by one of you kind Patrons.

You guys should cover some SNL movies. Especially "it's pat"!

Eagerly waiting to find out the other 24 films in Ryan’s Top 3 Films List.

You really nailed the Oscars. Jimmy Kimmel has the charisma of a wet piece of toast.
Ryan Lancello
Thank you, we never would’ve watched it otherwise, I’m glad we did!

I LOVE the anime Akagi but never read it. I did read though Saikyou Densetsu Kurosawa from the same author and it has really stuck with me as one of my favorite pieces of media ever. Like in a "oh shit, I will never be able to write like this" sort of way. I also watched another older mahjong anime called Legendary Gambler Tetsuya which starts kinda great like Akagi but limps a little to the finish. Maybe worth a glance. Also, never seen The Man Who Would Be King. Really love John Huston, but he's always a guy whose movies I never seem to seek out, but end up catching them and being really impressed. Will definitely have to put it on this week.

If you guys are interesting in another movie similar to Easy Rider (very meditative with minimal dialoge) check out Two Lane Blacktop. Basic plot. Two Drifters race another drifter across late 60s early 70s America.

Ryan you're bring me right back to Freshman year of highschool with all this Japanese cartoon talk, and not in a pleasant way

Kaiji was great!!! You can Also watch One Outs...the new Ghostbusters was a 6/10 movie for me

Fools paradise feels like a movie written and directed by Charlie Kelly
Anthony Hoffman
Fuck him

I think this is my favorite episode of all-time. I love it when Ryan & Joe unite to shit on Hollywood

Latte Pronto be like: 🥺 Fool’s Paradise was a movie I was excited for and we saw opening weekend. It was a letdown but I laughed Adrien Brody’s ‘I watch the movie better with my eyes closed’ bit. That’s stuck with me a year later! Counterpoint: Holy shit I forgot about the Malkovich scene, that was so unnecessary
Mary and Steve
I definitely expected y’all to say you found The Day the Clown Cried on the same website as the Palace 🤦♀️ Steve and I saw the long-gestating movie The Primevals a few weeks ago, good stop-motion! Really fluid stuff, whole there is some major charm to the stilted stop-motion of yesteryear but I like the slick stuff, too. Over the weekend we saw Late Night with the Devil and David Dastmalchian needs to be in better movies. He’s in a lot of middling stuff right now. Some neat ideas, Steve and I were discussing it the rest of the weekend and what ‘we would have done.’ If anyone else (Joe, Ryan, fellow Patreon members) saw it/will be seeing it, I’m interested in what y’all think.

Ryan I hate that hack, "Watch Bad Movies so you can learn how to make good movies." Because pretty much every time the only thing it teaches you is "Have a higher budget" and "Get lucky and don't have a bad producer who's controlling"
Luke Gordnier
Chloe is awful in that terrible Tom and Jerry movie as well
Luke Gordnier
If you guys like hotel farces you should do an episode on four rooms

He said “Some people say that the silent era was the golden era of film. These people are difficult and insane.”
Almost Cult Classics
What did he say?

I pictured Joe seething during Muhanys comments about silent movies

You guys seem to upload these the same time I'm about to make Mac and Cheese
