It's like a Book Club, except for movies, how crazy is that?? Mildly!
Still in 1978, still disemboweling enemies with solid iron prosthetics ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Ryan's Ever-Incomplete List of Action Movies
1978! Ryan's Ever-Incomplete List of Action Movies
It continues... by going backwards a little bit ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Ryan's Ever-Incomplete List of Action Movies
While Matt Marinates (?) we here at Book Club for Movies (it's Ryan. Ryan is typing this) have assembled a crack team of the most proximal people possible: Kandie and Evelyn Miller! It's not the New Normal, it's quite strange in fact, but it's enough to have a quickish discussion about the new (and a little bit of the old) Dungeons & Dragons movie!
Slowly but surely! Ryan's Ever-Incomplete List of Action Movies
6 down... 136 to go??? https://letterboxd.com/bcfm_ryan/list/ryans-ever-incomplete-list-of-action-movies/
Quadruple the movies, quadruple the amount of by-myself! https://letterboxd.com/bcfm_ryan/list/ryans-ever-incomplete-list-of-action-movies/
Attacking the list part 1(ish)! https://letterboxd.com/bcfm_ryan/list/ryans-ever-incomplete-list-of-action-movies/
Hey I'm re-tooling my half of the BCfM By Myself feed to feature my sputtering effort at covering this list of action movies from 1962 to present: https://letterboxd.com/bcfm_ryan/list/ryans-ever-incomplete-list-of-action-movies/ All publicly released, all here and on the Book Club for Movies YouTube channel.

Remember when we used to avail ourselves of our copious sports knowledge to talk about all the television we've been watching? Honestly doesn't ring a bell!
Are our opinions on M3GAN are a delicate TikTok dance of emotion OR do we like the pressure washer part? Find out on this week's ep with a little help from Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, and Samaritan on the back end!
If you guessed that we'd get back into the swing of things by talking about Marvel Snap, Midnight Suns, Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, M3gan, John Q, Homebodies, Saving Private Ryan, Something in the Dirt, Wakanda Forever, The Banshees of Inisherin, and Deep Impact... you were right!
Hey the messiest show of the year just got messier, and feel free to throw your favorite five onto the pile!
From the twisted mind that suggested we do shows on Morbius and Ambulance comes... Anna and the Apocalypse! Is it enough? Is it really that good? Listen to find out! Or just yes, yes it is! Also we do our due diligence with It's a Wonderful Life, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, Frances Ha, and Bedazzled! Happy Holidays! :)
A gaggle of geese, a murder of crows, and an Act of Violence is what we call 200 podcast episodes my friends – we were having too much fun for #Noirvember to do anything else so come join in and stick around for a few words on Austin Powers, Chronicle, and The Money Pit!
I think we're alone now, there doesn't seem to be anyone around... so about Jurassic World Dominion then...
Two deep into #Noirvember and we have a real zinger on our hands folks, a real crackerjack I tells ya, with Out of the Past! Plus a bit on the back half about Crazy Mama, Fallen, the Goo Goo Dolls somehow, and 10 Cloverfield Lane!
It's our inaugural #Noirvember and we're starting with a showstopper in Blast of Silence before really going off the rails with a bit of Bullet Train, Lightyear, and Rad!
We're not fanboys... we're fanMEN *hard rock music begins*
This is it. This is how it ends. #Octoberween, I mean, and it ends with Deadstream! Okay technically it ends with some talk about Terrifier 2, Bloody Hell, The Conjuring 2, Cat People, Ready or Not, and Nope! Yep!
Originally released on 11/12/21 to patrons only, now public! We did it, we made a bonus, and it was another blast, a bonus Blair Witch blast with our very first podcast guest ever, my daughter. Did she believe the lies? Did she understand the question? Only one way to find out. https://www.patreon.com/BookClubforMovies
The third time's the charm this #Octoberween with Ti West's The Innkeepers and some bonus blabber about Werewolf by Night, Old, The Black Phone, Rosaline, and Three Thousand Years of Longing.
#Octoberween enters the bathroom stall this week with Glorious and extends its stay with Umma, Bodies Bodies Bodies, The Conjuring 2, and the Nightmare on Elm Street... remake ¯_(ツ)_/¯
#Octoberween begins! This week it's We're All Going to the World's Fair and boy do we! And then it's Class of 1999, Cloverfield, and Day Shift and boy do we!
Hey if you guessed we'd follow through and talk about Darkman but also Darkman III: Die Darkman Die, Prey, and (of course) Ski Patrol then you were right on the money, now go take that money to patreon.com/bookclubformovies and...
What better way to follow up a month of lovey dovey movies with yet another lovey dovey movie assuming you, like us, lovey dovey Ethan Hawke! Failing that you can stick around for some talk about Do Revenge and Judgment Night('s soundtrack) on the back half of the show!
And so the month of Awwwgust ends in the middle of September with 1980's Somewhere In Time plus a little help from Airheads, Supergirl, Jean-Luc Godard's Weekend, Europa Report, and... Immortality?
#Awwwgust gets to 3rd base this week with Age of Adaline and a hefty helping of Thor: Love and Thunder on the back half, then we talk about The Outfit for some reason! Movies!
Awwwgust continues with a total Carney movie: Once! It then continues with additional carney movies Adventures in Babysitting, M*A*S*H, Guarding Tess, and The Contractor!
Are you ready for the name we came up for this month we're doing of lovey dovey movies? No, you're not! So cuddle up with a cry-buddy and fire up The Umbrellas of Cherbourg for starters, and keep the waterworks going for Grown Ups, Fanboys, Robin and Marian, Between Two Ferns The Movie, and The New Mutants!
Bringing you yesterday's podcasts... today! But who can blame us for stretching out Julykwondo as long as possible with our last and final selection for 2022: Furie! We also stretch it out with a few words on The Princess, The Gray Man, and Umma, but who wouldn't!
Investigate that Fire Down Below from 1997 with Matt and Ryan this week in what's probably this year's 3rd entry for #Julykwondo, then stick around for Plus One, Game of Death, and Enter the Fat Dragon!
Julykwondo continues to be a very good name for a very good month wherein we're now watching The Blonde Fury aka Cynthia Rothrock herself mow down as many as it takes to SOLVE CRIMES, but we also have a few words on Six String Samurai, Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, History of Punk: Sound of Rebellion, and 1991: The Year Punk Broke! *whisper whisper* patreon.com/bookclubformovies...
Julykwondo is back and everybody loves the name! This year we start off with The Fearless Hyena and a little help from Five Fingers of Death and The 36th Chamber of Shaolin... and 24 Hour Party People and Masterminds!
Also unbearably massively talented? Paddington! 2! And since Matt went and saw Doctor Strange 2 we go ahead and give that another spin as well, spoilers included this time.
What's better than a movie about a movie about a movie? Talk about value! We also talk about In the Tall Grass, Top Gun Maverick, and the CORRECT Ambulance movie, because we're professionals. And as always thank you for listening, please consider contributing to the Patreon if you want to enable this lunacy, and enjoy the extras! https://www.patreon.com/BookClubforMovies
TVVB! It's back! How do you play? We may have invented the game but that doesn't mean we know how (or why) it works! Come, join us to talk of television & other things. But mostly television. And yes, there is a winner at the end. A winner is you!
We do in fact talk about the Michael Bay film called AmbuLAnce, but we also talk about Emergency, Top Gun, and Hot Shots... so it's a win in my book!
We're Venom! Haha jk, here's some Morbius and some not-Morbius about Den of Thieves, Taken 3, and Turning Red!
Sure they can rescue you from not being glued to a TV on a 1980s weekday afternoon but can Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers get the job done on a Sunday evening in your early 40s? Find out this week with a little additional help from Formula 51, Ghostbusters (2016), and Get Smart. Movies!
Well the universe is splintering ¯_(ツ)_/¯ so we're probably talking about Everything Everywhere All At Once, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, The Quick and the Dead, Dark Waters, The Batman, We Need to Talk About Kevin, and You Were Never Really Here. Movies!
If you're anticipating a windfall then boy do I have good news for you: Jesse Plemons continues to make movies! And if you're anticipating a Grindhouse or an Anthropophagus then wow somehow that paid off as well!
Fans of movies will agree this is one and people who look at Tom Holland will undoubtedly see him in this film, so come and enjoy 2008's movie of the year: Uncharted! And since that doesn't last long we also talk about Attack the Block, I Care A Lot, Ramenheads, and Life After Flash.
If you caught our mainline-but-LIVE show on the Hawkeye TV series (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OboR0F47JEM) you know that we read a comic or two in preparation, well this is what you listen to or watch if you want all the gory details. Normally there isn't a video version (https://youtu.be/Mfo5hA3TTho), and normally these are Patreon exclusives, so if you like what you see or hear go visit us over there!
Bruce Dern. Nebraska. You literally could not ask for anything more, and we don't, but we do also talk a little bit about Nebraska's spiritual sequel: Blade Runner 2049.
Death on the Nile is a movie that existed before, all professionals know this, and exists again in this our year 2022 so here's a cool 31 minutes on it plus another 31 on Underworld, The Adam Project, and Jimmy Savile a British Horror Story!
Thrill as we breakdown Breakdown and then stay as we speed past The Thomas Crown Affair, Tick Tick Boom, and Unstoppable!
It's a very special episode this week where Matt knows what he wants to talk about and Ryan has no idea what it is and his levels are a little lower than they should be... LIVE!
Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a spider can, like go to his wizard friend and really whoops up reality and what not. Oh plus The Kingsman, The Untouchables, and Live By Night because we care.
The Ryan and The Matt talk about The Bat, Man, and somehow still manage to surprise each other, something that Batman hasn't done for quite some time!
Two live shows in a row? This can only mean one thing: a TV show from 4 months ago? Hawkeye it is!
