  • Sexy Mother Russia - TWB90

    Sexy Mother Russia - TWB90
    Jun 12 2019

    This is not about elections, steel dossiers, or FBI reports I will never read. This is all about how sexy, crazy, cool, and dangerous those Russians can be on screen and off.

    Movies with actors doing Russian Things:

    1. Vanessa Angel from Spies Like Us
    2. Viggo Mortenson from that one killer movie, Eastern Promises
    3. Everyone in White Nights. Even Gregory Hines, a defector from the U.S. Mikhail Baryshnikov, Helen Mirren, and Isabella Rossellini
    4. Salt - Angelina Jolie

    Red Sparrow is a film, starring Jennifer Lawrence, about a young ballerina recruited into an elite organization of spies who use sex, not guns as a weapon. 

    • Red Sparrow opened at the wrong time of the #metoo movement, or was it just in time to justify the cause?

    This, That and Other News

    • The case of Sergei and Anna Chapman. 
    • Maria Butina who sales couches and US gun toting charm.
    • This guy fakes his own death to elude an assassination plot. 
    • Sex coaches offer up the goods, America doesn't bite. 
    • The Cold War scare. Even in the early eighties, we had to prepare for a potential bomb scare/ nuclear fallout. Duck and cover.

  • Road Trip Heroes - TWB89

    Road Trip Heroes - TWB89
    Jun 5 2019
    In This Episode 1. Liam Neeson did that to himself. 2. 15:17 To Paris and the Hollywood movie meant for Lifetime. 3. Patriots Day and true event films. How long to wait before we capitalize on a tragedy. 4. When art transcends admiration. 5. Eurotrip: The Movie we don't have now. Liam Nesson takes the low road, on purpose. C'mon, bruh, you volunteered this information which allowed the media to run away with it. However, should we care? Will we somehow erase the memory of watching this man portray roles in Schindler's List, Star Wars: Episode One, or all the Taken movies? What he said was stupid and insensitive. Who he is, is flawed like you and me.  15:17 to Paris is not a Clint Eastwood, like, Movie - On The Thread 15:17 should begin after the train attack.Clint Eastwood offended people with some of his views on Hilary Clinton during and after the election. He is a person who is a famous actor and director. Who cares what he thinks. His art is what we relate to the man, not the other way around.Of his 39 credits as director, 15:17 is far from any exemplary in comparison to his previous productions.15:17 played too much like a Lifetime movie, which made it almost unbearable to watch.Recognizable movie and television actors also made it difficult to believe a story that is a true story.This movie portrays true events with those involved at the time it occurred. Less recognizable actors would make this film more convincing.Eastwood tried to tell the tale of these four heroes as truthful as he possibly could but ended up hurting Hollywood appeal by coming at this project wearing kids gloves. Spending twenty minutes with these fellows on vacation while sightseeing was boring. All the drama occurred at the end of this film, whereas, it ignored the issue of every life that is not so spectacular: the single mother raising her child, the effect of a young boy losing his best friend, and a man’s struggle to find a place in a world where he needed fit in. Patriots Day and applying Hollywood ascetic to real life events. The real heroes of this very real event are the first responders. Stories of their bravery in a time of crisis are good stories to be told on Good Morning America or with news outlets, however, to capture the Hollywood flair, movie depiction of horrible events have to include some sort of stretch to the imagination. Stories change with each retelling. The shootout at the end of Patriots Day between the two terrorists and law enforcement, although not accurately depicted, added a Hollywood pizazz to events that in realtime occurred quickly and without dramatic pause. 15:17 To Paris reminded me of that EuroTrip Movie in a way but less boring. If you really want a Eurotrip movie, then stay away from Hostile aka torture porn movies of the early 2000s. Watch this silly film about a high school graduate in search of his pen pal and love of his life. 1. Michelle Trachtenberg of Buffy fame. 2. Matt Damon 3. Stupid comedy movies and the event film. 4. Teen angst movies: there are none. Only things kids are into these days is Juuls and Fortnite. 5. It’s just a different world. When Art Transcends Admiration - Scoop Du Jour I was upset by past rhetoric expressed by Clint Eastwood years ago and lost admiration for a man I thought was a great visionary and storyteller. However, one doesn't associate with the other. His thoughts on Hilary Clinton doesn't reflect on his filmmaker vision.  Reality stars, actors, and sports heroes are not who we imagine them to be in most instances; they are people. What we admire is their art, the characters, and on-screen personas. Nowadays with social media, we know more about them as individuals and it's not flattering. No matter how mundane they are in comparison to the most popular Twitch streamer or Youtube star, your story matters. If you want to tell that story, go on ahead while the getting is good. We have the technology and other means, so why not? The stupidest person in the world can have a Youtube or blog account. We invest in idols and the characters we believe they are. Reality stars, actors, and sports heroes, sometimes they are not who we imagine them to be. No matter how mundane they are in comparison to the most popular Twitch streamer or Youtube star, your story matters. If you want to tell that story, then go on ahead while the getting is good. We have the technology and other means, so why not. The stupidest person in the world likely has a youtube or blog account. Weekly Gratitude: Our realities might not be great, but they are our stories. Flava text: Always shoot from the hip.

  • Sharks Plus Ocean Equals Scary - TWB88

    Sharks Plus Ocean Equals Scary - TWB88
    Mar 17 2019
    Recently, Warner Bros. released The Meg as proof that sharks are not bankable unless you make them silly. As frightening a creature as sharks seem, they are never good subjects for a movie. There are very few plots involving sharks in which to script an original film. Depending on the idea, a thrilling shark movie should never be over-conceptualized. Just keep it simple: sharks plus ocean equals scary.   Sharks strike fear in the minds of most people who ever watched Jaws. As frightening a creature they are; however, sharks are never good subjects for a movie. There are very few plots involving sharks in which to script an original film.  Jaws is the best shark film made, and that was just about 40 years ago. Tell the same story over with The Shallows and add in a human element, Open Water, then you might just come close to some decent, but nothing is or will ever be as good as Jaws.    In this episode:  
    • The Shallows and Open Water are two good films that embody the simplicity of a good shark film. 
    • Crazy shark movies that have to make the animal more terrifying than they are is not embracing the horror most of us feel when we consider swimming in an ocean.
    • Shark movies should rely on the fear already embedded within our psyche. Prey on the audience by feeding upon the fear most of us have of being in the ocean. 
    Scoop Du Jour: Naked Mole Rats and The Probability of the SyFy network.        Wow, it’s amazing how this has come full circle. As we near this pinnacle of 100 episodes I revisit episode three of this podcast when we discussed the probability of the SyFy network, and how movies, like, Sharknado would not keep it afloat.    Audiences give less attention to the movies, it’s the series that made the probable success of the SyFy network a reality.    This, that, other news, and Stingrays:  
    • Boy gets stung by a shark in the willy-wacker. 
    • My daughter and her sting ray vacation.
    • Talk about having something stuck in your head. Try this: insert baby shark song. 
    Weekly Gratitude:   My daughter is alive and for that, I have nature to thank. Our bodies are magnificent machines hellbent on keeping us alive.    Flava text: Shuffle you feet or else bye bye go your pee-pee.   We're always open for suggestions and/or a favorable comment But Machete don't tweet.
