  • Cinecast Episode 310 – Demon Leeches

    17

    Back to two shows a week will hopefully continue to be the norm from here on out. This week’s b-side focuses on two episodes of “Game of Thrones” in which there is a lot to haggle over. The least of which is probably the sheer amount of boobs, butts and blue balls. A nice distraction from a voice mail from a regular listener has us evaluating the career of Leonardo DiCaprio and other that may or may not follow the same career path. From there it’s more on DiCaprio in the Watch List as we cover his latest, The Great Gatsby, as well as Kurt’s opinion as his best role in Catch Me if You Can. Spanish horror, Tom Cruise and Bruce Willis’ fall to mediocrity all round out a nice, even Watch List. We’ll be back next week with more NOS and Paul Walker.

  • Cinecast Episode Classic – We’re Calling it “#53″

    0

     
    Minnesota has been cold and dismal for almost the past 8 months. We finally got a hint of good weather (literally, it went from 35 to 90 degrees (Fahrenheit) overnight) and we love you – we really do, but sorry, Andrew needed his patio and beer evening. On top of that there has been a very slight domestic issue that needed attending to and we weren’t able to catch Gatsby. Also Mud hasn’t worked it’s mojo in the Toronto/Minneapolis markets very well either; so there’s that. We’ll be back next week though, with an explanation about this small hiatus and a likely a very long conversation about Cumber-khan.

    In the meantime, here’s something to keep you occupied if you really need your Cinecast fix: a classic episode in which I think Andrew and Kurt really started to feel comfortable with each other and became heterosexual life mates. We talk a bit about Angelina Jolie’s first (and only?) really impressive performance in A Mighty Heart, John Cusack tackles horror in 1408, more awesome Japanime with Paprika and the musical that kept audiences in their chairs when it was all over, Once.

    If you need more show notes, they’re over here. Oh, and apparently we’re available on MySpace

  • Cinecast Episode 307 – Don’t Be A Don’ter

    20

    This week sees the absence of Matt Gamble but that doesn’t stop us for going on far longer than probably needs be about another fantastic episode in the saga of Westeros. We take a step back from our initial anticipation of a Michael Bay film and remind ourselves to keep calm and carry on. The Watch List this week takes us to HotDocs and Jurassic Park. Again. Though not much new in the message, we take a quick look at Soderbergh’s thoughts on the state of cinema and decide that yes, you are probably part of the problem. All this and more in this episode in the classic banter style of the RowThree Cinecasts of yore.

  • Cinecast Episode 303 – Prolificity

    26

    With Andrew’s new night school/work schedule things are a bit weird in the Cinecast scheduling department, but we still manage to get to a lot of new ground (and some old Australian ground) in this 3+ hour episode of The Cinecast. Two definitely “off the beaten path” films from a Hollywood standpoint to talk about. Yet both as different from each other as they could possibly be. We introduce a new segment to The Cinecast this week with our weekly “Game of Thrones” recap in which we realize that although this week’s episode covered more ground in 55 minutes than most television covers in half a season, it still left about a third of the character threads off the screen this week. A healthy Watch List harkens back to Australian (not really) blockbusters, Harmony Korine’s previous works and a couple of straight to DVD pictures that might (might) surprise you.

  • Cinecast Episode 297 – Eat Her Cookies

    20

     
    We’re more or less back to our regularly scheduled programming this week, though it’s with great and powerful pleasure we bring you two main stream, theatrical reviews. While the boys parse through Sam Raimi’s prequel of The Wizard of Oz they reminisce a bit on the theatrics and minutiae of 1939 film making and the original version. Andrew slowly begins to realize that the second movie reviewed this week, Dead Man Down is actually even dumberer than he first realized as Kurt dishes ammunition whilst ironically trying to defend the film. It’s quite the entertaining downward spiral of a conundrum. We’ll be back later in the week with our Watch List and possibly some listener feedback.

  • Cinecast Episode 296 – Praying at the Juno Temple

    73

    Without much going on in theaters currently, Andrew and Kurt take to the internet and discuss the current VOD release of The Brass Teapot starring Juno Temple and Michael Angarano. A quiet little 80s style suburban fable with a a dash of Dante, a sprinkle of The Great Recession and a dollop of light bondage. Andrew sorts out his security issues with the Google-machine and the video edition returns. All the better to see you with (my dear) as we delve further into the Orson Scott Card boycott – which is a do-over of the Polanski debates had on previous Cinecast shows. Andrew finds pleasure in needling our frequent co-host, Matt Gamble, when he can’t defend himself. The Watch List is also Polanski heavy as well TV-talk with disparate subjects ranging from “Game of Thrones” season 2, and the long running medical dramedy with Zach Braff in “Scrubs.” We delve into the 1% defense examined in Richard Gere’s Arbitrage and sad-sack Stallone in James Mangold’s Copland.

  • Cinecast Episode 295 – I Wouldn’t Wear That. Even in the Future!

    30

    This week sees a return to form with all sorts of negativity and disagreement. But [in best DeForest Kelley voice] for God sake man, it’s Anne Hathaway. She’s worth fighting for! Outside of that little tussle, Sean Kelly from SKonMovies.com joins in on the discussion with a bit more of a unique Oscar experience having seen the whole thing in a packed theater. For the majority of this Cinecast it is a look back at Sunday nights Hollywood back-patting at the Academy Awards. We talk about it all: from winners to losers to hosting to gowns (OK, not really) to stage direction to orchestration. Look no further; it’s all in here. From there we venture into the Watch List with Kurt proving Matt Gamble’s prognostication mostly correct with a viewing of Margaret. We grind the axe a bit more (though less enthusiastically) about modern biblical epics while Sean looks at a couple of Oscar-nominated documentaries and Andrew continues his Star Treking.

  • Cinecast Episode 294 – Gennero-ic

    14

    Matt Gamble makes a brief appearance in this episode where he extols upon the virtues of teen witches (and Emma Thompson.) He is also rather confident he knows something about Oscar. Kurt believes only a fool bets against Abe-Frakkin-Lincoln and Matt can Argo-fuck-himself. Andrew discusses the Teal n’ Orange edition of Officer John McClane and his adventures in Mother Russia as Daddy Car-crusher. Another Take this Waltz debate ensues. Kurt also caught an early screening of Park Chan-Wook’s Stoker and despite being under a gag-order, encourages people to flock to the cinema for this unusually stylish blend of Hollywood and Korean aesthetics. A fun and eclectic Watch List including old school mega-epics (Frankly, my dears, we don’t give a damn), Ricky Jay on Henry David Thoreau and dramatic Steve Martin, early Cameron Crowe flirtations ghetto blasters and the IRS troubles, and ends with Andrew trouble with tribulations in his Blindspotting adventures that lead to just a re-watch of Star Trek II.

  • Cinecast Episode 292 – Editing Orgasm

    10

    Non-censored version of the above poster
    can be found HERE.

    Welcome to another part one of the week in Cinecast! For this week’s episode we’re talking Steven Soderbergh’s Side Effects – don’t let the SPOILERS! bite you folks! Between the chit and the chat we take a brief, but much awe-inspiring look back at the career of said director and lament his exit from the world of film making. Of course there are a few house keeping items to get to in the beginning of the show and we look forward at the next couple of weeks of Cinecast’s content. Feel free to send feedback to us in any way, shape or form for possible inclusion in part two of this week’s Cinecast later in the week.

  • Cinecast Episode 290 – Great Tatts

    51

    And we’re back! Almost like we never left. Almost. With the new season of the Cinecast starting up we’re going to be trying some new things. We get privy on all the new shit while we get our bearings on this cold weather to open up the show. Then we dig into the second film of a trend in Hollywood for 2013 of “old action stars attempting a come-back” in Bullet in the Head. We enjoyed the Schwarzenegger version, can Stallone compare? Also Kevin Spacey is back to work within the U.S. government in David Fincher’s, Netflix original series “House of Cards.” Check out all the news ideas and we’ll be back later in the week to assess.

  • Cinecast Episode 289 – Food, Friends and Sunshine… Tobago

    7

     
    We finally made some time while in country to check out the local Tabagonian Cinema life and found it quite similar to that stateside. Clean, friendly and Schwarzenegger in 35mm. This was a special show recorded on the fly while on vacation in Tobago – blunders, breaks and all. As promised, we review some of the local flavors for the first half of the show, then move on to the movie talk. We’ve also started a new feature with this episode: drink delivery, compliments of our better halves (or Halveyards in one case). See you all back on the mainland next week sometime.
