It's All Film And Games

Bong Joon Ho's newest Sci-fi Comedy film Mickey 17 is the biggest movie to come out in 2025. Does this film live up to the standard of his previous work, or does it fall victim to a post-best picture winner slump? Nick Ramono joins Cory and Sam to discuss this new film, as well as recap the 2025 Oscars. 

In what can only be called the biggest return since Michael Jordan came back to the Wizards, the boys are back with a new episode about the 2025 Oscars. Cory, Sam and special guest Nick Ramano go to battle with an auction style draft to determine who knows the most about the best movies of 2024. Each contestant gets $1000 to bid on what movies will win the most awards at this year's biggest movie award show. New episodes will be coming back weekly, so stay tuned for more content for the rest of the year!

The cord has been officially cut, streaming madness is running rampant, and the boys talk about which streaming service is the best of the best in a 16 team bracket. 

The boys are back. The boys are back. The boys are back in town as they say. The town this week is Jordan Peele's Nope, which is sweeping the nation as the premiere 2022 blockbuster. Listen, as the boys scream at each other over and over again about if this movie is deserving of all its praise. 

We're back.  Top 5 movies from the mediocre film bros.

It's been a minute hasn't it? Well today the film bros go all the way back to 20 years ago to discuss one of the best years in film ever. Listen as the boys get back into the swing of things and argue and cry just like they've always done :) 

Does Zack Snyder strike gold with his new campy Zombie movie? Does Samir learn how to quietly eat noodles? All of these questions will be answered on our newest episode :) 

On today's episode we talk all things fire, Jolie, and Bernthall Midparts as we discuss the newest Taylor Sheridan movie "Those Who Wish Me Dead."   Follow our twitter so you never miss an episode of the podcast @allfilmandgames  

It's only fitting that our most ADHD episode revolves around the most ADHD movie released in quite some time. Today the mediocre film bros talk about The Mitchell's Vs. The Machines, the 2021 Sony produced animated feature film. Listen, as Samir takes literally 10 minutes to get one single point across, the film bros compliment themselves about how good they are at podcasting, and how Cory can quite literally never stop bringing up big media conglomerates.

On today's episode we take a break from films to discuss our 4 favorite tv episodes ever made. Each episode is deeply loved by the film bro who nominated it, and as it turns out we all pretty much have the same taste when it comes to TV. The nominees were: 'Ozymandias' S5 E14 of Breaking Bad  'Pilot' S1 E1 of Sopranos 'Mac Finds His Pride' S13 E10 of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia  'Finding Frances' S4 E7 of Nathan For You 

We couldn't have picked 3 more different movies for our 25th episode special. One made us cry from how sad it was, one made us cry from how funny it was, and one made us cry because of how bad it was (except Dane who obviously loved it). Thank you to everyone for the recent support!  Make Sure To Follow All Film And Games on Twitter @allfilmandgames and we just launched our TikTok under the same @

If you like podcasts where the guest is the smartest person on the show then I have a show for you! Today we have our dear friend John on the pod to talk about the 1996 cult classic, Trainspotting, and it's relation to Thatcherism and late stage capitalism. Even with its brainy subject manner this proves to be one of our silliest episodes yet! 

The rules are simple (yet we still got confused multiple times). 5 rounds. Each person takes turns picking a 2021 Oscar nominated movie. The person who's 5 movies win the most awards come Oscar Night wins the draft. Lots of trash talk and banter in what is likely our best episode yet! 

Will Gamble is objectively the most eligible bachelor on this planet. With his extensive knowledge of anime, six foot 7 frame, and a laugh that could cure diseases, we wanted him to be the first guest for our bachelor series. The mediocre film bros picked 4 comedies for Will to watch and he will pick his favorite as the Will Gamble Bachelor Champion. Movies Discussed: Life Is Beautiful  Best In Show Naked Gun Foot Fist Way  Private Life 

There were 3 main surprise Golden Globe Winners, and our mediocre film boys were dead set on talking about them this episode. This episode we talk all things girl bosses, on the nose dialogue, and the ethics of actors portraying themselves, and most importantly if Cory could pass as Michael Moore at a bar.    Episode Timeline: I Care A Lot: 00:00:00 United States vs. Billie Holiday: 00:35:00 Nomadland: 00:48:00

It's a special guest extravaganza as we talk with our dear friend Emmaline! We have argued with Emmaline about movies for months and figured she'd be the best first guest on our show. We talk about 3 of her personal favorites in Little Women (2019), Yes God Yes (2020) and Water Lillies (2007) as well as her general love for cinema! 

We finally have new releases in 2021! Today the mediocre film bros discuss 3 of the most popular movies released in the past two weeks.

Dane Holtz is loved by everyone. So for today's episode we had him recommend 3 MCU movies that only he likes in order to make us hate him. The episode turns into much more than the MCU as we discuss pooping our pants, Dane's brush with the ski police, and Dane's hatred of the Italian race!  

It's award season everyone! Which means that we will be spending the rest of the month talking about how much we hate movie award shows, yet also completely following their every move. We talk about the biggest snubs, surprises, and the potential big winners of everyone's second favorite award show. 

Who will be crowned champion? Weeks have been leading up to this moment as Cory and Sam faceoff in our most obnoxious and dramatic episode yet.  Cory picked Holy Motors, while Sam picked Persona. Winner takes all!

Today we discuss each film bro's biggest cinema blind spot. We've all been there. A popular movie gets brought up, and everyone looks towards you to get an opinion on the movie. Except, little do they know, you've never seen said popular movie. Listen, as the film bros roast each other like never before and discuss 4 popular movies instead of weird art house stuff for a change.

2020 has come and gone, and we'll all be incredibly sad to see it go. We laughed, we cried... we mostly cried. But luckily there were a couple great movies that came out this year. Listen as the Mediocre Film Guys each go through their 5 favorite movies of 2020.  Movies Talked About On Today's Episode: - Borat 2 - Another Round - Tenet - Sound of Metal - Bad Education - Da 5 Bloods - Soul - His House - Minari - Pieces of A Woman - Shithouse  

Dane Holtz is the greatest guy we know. This isn't hyperbole like when we said Sam was funny, Samir was elegant or Cory was insightful. Dane is just truly the best dude we know. This episode is dedicated to everyone's actual favorite film guy, Dane, as we conclude the Secret Santa series with his 3 movies.   Episode Timeline:  Intro: 00:00:00 Akira: 00:27:00 Mystic River: 00:56:00 Evil Dead 2: 01:20:00

Samir. What is there to say about Samir? Certainly the best dancer of the group, Samir has always been a welcome friend of the other 3 film guys, until he joined this podcast. Samir has been nothing but a source of negativity and divisiveness throughout his reign of terror in our podcast. But now the tables have turned and we the other 3 get to destroy his movies.  Episode Timeline: Intro: 0:00:00 Mutual Appreciation: 0:20:00 A Seperation: 0:47:00 Amores Perros: 1:10:00      

Sam Merikallio. Perfect taste, perfect little spoon, perfect white male podcaster. These are terms everyone uses to describe Sam Merikallio. On today's episode we dive further into the Secret Santa Series, as Sam recommends 3 movies to the other mediocre film guys followed by the other 3 mercilessly roasting Sam and saying mean things about him.   Episode Timeline: Intro and Disney Announcement Recap: 0:00:00 Brazil: 0:34:00 Perfect Blue: 1:10:00 Sound Of Metal: 1:40:00 Recap: 2:25:00    

Cory Stillman. Handsome. Intelligent. Selfess-Lover. These are some of the most common ways Cory has been described over the years. On today's episode Cory will take his selflessness a step further and give the gift of 3 movies to the other mediocre film bros that none of them have seen before. The other 3 will all rate and then guess which movie they think he picked for each specific film bro. Time Stamp Of Episode: Intro and Discussion of HBO Max / Theater Drama: 0:00 Bronson: 35:00 Half-Nelson: 1:00:00 Ice Storm: 1:15:00 

Today's episode is a deep dive into movies that we believe to be diamonds in the rough. Movies that were either written off or actually universally disliked, that the film bros love. Listen as Cory still believes he's right about everything, Dane talks about the mid 2000s as if anything good happened from then, Samir talks about the number 69, and Sam wins every movie debate again!

That's right. The film bros get political this episode, eh not really, rather they talk about how much they hate movies. The guys take turns picking two movies they dislike, and picking the movie they hate less. Watch as Samir, Sam and Cory shit on movies, and Dane somehow makes this about how much he loves movies. Lots of horrible hot takes and screaming will follow.  

On this episode the boys face off in drafting their favorite horror movies from the 70s through the 10s. Listen as Sam (with his terrible mic quality) tries to argue that horror movies are bad, while Samir Cory and Dane all take the draft way too seriously! 

In today's episode we finish up on the saga of both hating the Oscar's and also obsessing over them. There's hot takes galore this time around, where the boys have learned in order to make a good episode, they must passionately argue about who has the best taste (spoiler alert: it's Sam who gets shit on hardest). 

Aren't The Oscar's the worst!? Well as all good film bros, we both love to talk about how much we hate The Oscars, and also base 90% of our discussions related to films about the award show. On todays episode the 4 mediocre film guys talk about the who should have won best picture for the 2010 through 2015 movies. Lots of laughs and tears in this episode!

The mediocre film bros have added a fresh face, and learned that the secret to life is...friendship?? Listen to the boys rank every pixar movie.   This episode tackles important subjects like watching the Iron Man 1 sex scene with your parents, live action Avatar The Last Airbender, and Samir's hatred of toys.

On this episode the 3 mediocre white film guys talk about their favorite 5 movies from 2020 so far.  Witness, as they ramble about Hugh Jackman, Spike Lee, and Sonic The Hedgehog lore on our very first episode.  Follow The 3 Mediocre Film Guys Twitters: Sam Merikallio: https://twitter.com/ThickShorty420 Cory Stillman: https://twitter.com/CorsLight25 Dane Holtz: https://twitter.com/holtzy65
