070 - TERMINATOR GENISYS

Jeremy and Anthony Malone reunite for the first of a new season, beginning with a timely examination of 2015 science-fiction action sequel Terminator Genisys starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emilia Clarke, Jai Courtney, Jason Clarke and JK Simmons.

Over the course of a mammoth struggle of intellects, their debate touches on such weighty matters as bad marketing, Ryan Gosling's Giggle Factory, James Cameron's secret merman identity, grey goo, Amistad with Oompa-Loompas and Terminators that ride horses, dance, attend job interviews or are made of mushrooms. We were both quite tired.

I took this video on my smartphone using digital zoom. It was the best I could do in short notice as I was just a general attendee sitting towards the back. I'm fairly certain the school did do a professional recording. Once they release it please buy a copy to support the high school and it's theater program.

063 - REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2018

Jeremy rounds up his choices for the best and worst films of the year, assisted by Chris Arnsby and Anthony Malone, the latter joining via written notes, as together they cover such subjects as the stage version of The Exorcist, the parallel between Freddie Mercury and Neil Armstrong, Jurassic World: The Lawsuit, the distance of history and exactly what Jeremy thinks of Ernest Cline.

A listing of my previous Best Film winners (with a tie for 2003 and a four-way tie in 2004 - ask me about it sometime).
Orson Welles, American actor, director, writer and producer, who worked extensively in theater, radio and film, creator of the epic "Citizen Kane", which is often touted as the greatest movie ever made, heard here getting frustrated with some studio personnel as he attempts to narrate some badly written commercials that he clearly finds quite annoying.

Jeremy is joined by Anthony Malone to discuss the 1991 comedy adventure Hudson Hawk, starring Bruce Willis and newly-minted Oscar nominee Richard E. Grant. Their discussion diverts onto such subjects as baldness, cappuccino, Cameron Diaz's retirement and Christoph Waltz impressions as they try to avoid talking about the actual film.

054 - PLAY TIME

Anthony Malone joins Jeremy to discuss 1967's epic comedy Play Time, starring, co-written and directed by Jacques Tati. As they dissect the film they immediately decide is a masterpiece, they also touch on Terry Gilliam, The Prisoner, Peep Show, architectural prophecy, silent farce and all the joy of the world.

Considered by many to be Jacques Tati's masterpiece, PlayTime is a perfectly orchestrated city symphony. Shot on 70mm on a huge constructed set of concrete, glass and steel, the film was the most ambitious project Tati ever took on. Now diligently restored in-line with the filmmaker's particular, perfectionist approach, audiences can once again enjoy the expansive scope of his comic vision.
I think Jacques Tati's PlayTime is one of the unrivaled great films of all time, but rather than talk about its socio-economic commentary or its myriad of slapstick gags, let's take a minute to dive into its extraordinary (and extraordinarily fun) Royal Garden sequence, and explore the inner workings of chaos unfolding.

052 - PRINCE OF DARKNESS

Jeremy is joined by Anthony Malone for a discussion pertaining to John Carpenter's 1987 quantum horror Prince of Darkness, starring Donald Pleasance. Their conversation covers such matters as broken-down cars, academic dissertations, future sitcom stars and Joe Pesci impressions, while Anthony is tickled by the notion of an Erich von Daniken theme park and Jeremy is interrupted by an actual ghost.

Trailer for John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness. It is evil... It has awakened. Master of horror John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing) directs this terrifying battle between mankind and the ultimate evil. A group of graduate students and scientists uncover an ancient canister in an abandoned church, but when they open it, they inadvertently unleash a strange liquid and an evil force on all of humanity.
