This long-form conversational podcast dives deep into both film and the psyches of two film-obsessed friends. Join Adam and Nathan through movie deconstructions, lists, histories, or just sharing their views on what is good and what is not. Welcome to Line of Sight.
Adam Coates & Nathan Makarenko

To celebrate Nathan we go to his 9th favourite movie.0:00 -50:00 Intro and DVD present talk50:00 ALIENS discussion

It's Oscar season, and there is lots of buzz about Oscar gold for many films form last year, but we're going to talk about one from 20 years ago in honour of the great Catherine O'Hara. For Your Consideration is a Christopher Guest film will all the usual players, about a film and it's actors who have rumours of earning an Oscar nomination.

It's January, it's Brenda's birthday, so welcome back to the podcast Adam's wife Brenda, as we talk about the female-centric comedy Bridesmaids.

These are our favourite first-time, or at least for Nathan "first-in-a-long-time," movies we watched in 2025, not including new releases. Stay tuned for that list next week!

Adam and Nathan go on a movie marathon to finish off the year.

We go back to Pandora, again, and discuss the latest in the James Cameron Avatar Franchise: Fire and Ash.(REPOST)

We go back to Pandora, again, and discuss the latest in the James Cameron Avatar franchise: Fire and Ash.

We finally talk in depth about one of the greatest Christmas movies, nay, movies of all time.This one is a banger.

We recorded this 5 days before the untimely and unexpected passing of directorial legend, Rob Reiner. RIP Rob, we only had good things to say about your movie.Featuring special guest "Fake Adam"

For our annual Jessica Lowndes Hallmark Christmas movie this year we have chose then one with the title that has nothing to do with the movie, other than to be a pun for Gladys Knight being in it.

There are many version of this story, but the one from 2002 was on both of our Top 100 lists, in fact they were right beside each other as numbers 86 and 87. So close.

The main review is Seven Samurai but we ended up talking a lot about the new Frankenstein.0:00-29:00 Frank29:00 and beyond Samurai

A powerhouse cast leads this forgotten gem of a WWII film, just in time for Remembrance Day.

Happy Howl ween, this week we jump into the Wolf men world. The original Universal monster from 1941 and the Benicia del Toro, Anthony Hopkins Emily Blunt master piece directed by Joe Johnston.

We go through all the Pixar feature films and give them our collective tier ranking.Listening is fun but, for the first time ever, you can watch along on with video! Available on YouTube , tier ranking portion only, so you have to listen to the audio version for the preamble, or this is the perfect excuse to skip it!

We have not done a list in a while so here is one.

As a tribute to Mr Robert Redford we take a look at Tony Scott's Spy Game from 2001. Also talk Whitney and Dolly

We round off Subtember with a "comedy" from 1996 that actually captures the essence of a sub movie quite well, but doesn't exactly capture the essence of a comedy movie.

We continue Subtember with Hunter Killer. We also talk sneezing and food.

It's that time of year again, but I don't have to tell you, avid Line of Sight listener... it's SUBTEMBER!!!We kick things off with a mashup of two movies featuring maybe the most famous submarine of all, the Nautilus. We watch for maybe the first time the 1954 movie 20000 Leagues Under the Sea, and the 2003 counterpart The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen for maybe the last time.

We finish off the Summer of Spielberg with a film neither of us had seen before. Enjoy and get mentally prepared for SUBTEMBER!!!

Doc sent Marty a letter...The epic conclusion to the Back to the Future trilogy, and nearing the end of The Summer of Spielberg on Line of Sight.

We had no idea that Ice Cube was going to star in a new version of War of the Worlds this year, just after we recorded this, otherwise we definitely would have reviewed that one instead of this one starring Tom Cruise directed by Steven Spielberg.

0:00-23:00 min Film Junk Episode 1000 Talk 23:00 Mins Back to the Future

Next up for our "Summer of Spielberg" we are trading the shark for something much bigger, but not better. The Jurassic franchise is a cash cow, and much like the cow in the original movie it has been ripped to shreds.

We continue our Summer of Spielberg with one of his greatest achievements.

As the sudden and unexpected (we come up with the idea this episode) kick off of our Summer of Spielberg â„¢, we're easing in with a Spielberg-adjacent classic The Goonies . He has a story credit and is an executive producer, he is an uncredited editor and second unit director, and he gets his name right up top as "Steven Spielberg presents..."Nathan's never seen it, so this could also be one of those "You've Never Seen...?" episodes we used to do.But The Goonies just turned 40, so here we are either way.

They said it could not be done but we did it. We have finally finished the Star Wars features. Again Star Wars "expert" Steve joins us to finish off the saga.

Adams returns from Mexico, talk a little Mission Impossible, Jaws, The Brutalist, Cast Away, The Three Musketeers, Venom The Last Dance, Out of Sight, From Dusk till Dawn, Michael Clayton, Case Bonita Mi Amor, The Road to El Dorado.

It's a Wyatt Earp double (maybe triple) feature. With the passing of Val Kilmer we though it was time we talked about one of the most quotable Westerns ever, and its lesser counterpart that came out less than a year later.

*You'll see why at the end of the movie**We're releasing this ahead of 260 because relevancy.Everyone is loving Marvel's "return to form" with Thunderbolts, or are they? One or both of us may not think it's all it's cracked to be. Are critic and user reviews lying about this latest blockbuster, or have they been starved for some semblance of the former glory of the MCU that they will accept almost anything at this point?

Happy May the 4th be with you, to celebrate we dive deep into the objectively worse Star Wars film to date. Also Nathan has a Disney World story.

Not the shoes, the 1992 hidden gem that kind of snuck by, starring Robert Redford, Ben Kingsley, Dan Aykroyd, Sydney Poitier, May MacDonnell, and River Phoenix, just to name a few. Why haven't you seen it yet? And if you have, why haven't you listened to the episode yet?

Time travel, Michael Chrichton, Richard Donner, Paul Walker, early 2000s. What could go wrong?

Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones peak 90's. He didn't kill his wife.

These the the WILDEST, FUNNIEST, and MOST SURPRISING titles of beloved films that have been translated into other languages. You won't believe #6!

Two almost-40-year-old straight white men discuss what the greatest movies of all time are, and it's about what you'd expect. We each come up with our own top 10 lists and then decide on a final, master, official Line of Sight Top 10 Greates Films (that we've seen) of All Time list.Donuts are also discussed, again.Next episode will be Star Wars: The Force Awakens, despite what is said at the end of this episode.

A epic movie calls for epic podcast run time. We talk Mel Gibson's 30 year old now classic Braveheart.Number 5 on Nathan's top 100Braveheart talk starts approx 25min into episode.

Are we scratching your surface? We tackle this forgotten 'classic',

For the big 250th episode it is also Adam's wife Brenda's birthday, and her birthday wish is to talk about one of her favourites Anne of Green Gables. It's a Canadian classic and everyone should see it, and then listen to us talk about it for almost 3 hours. That's almost 6 hours of Anne content, and we barely get into the sequels!

It is absolutely crucial that we talk about 1997's masterpiece Anaconda. It's basically a prequel to Marry Me (2022).

We didn't see everything last year, but these are our favourite 2024 releases.

Before we get to the Top 10 of 2024 we like to discuss the ten movies we watched for the first time in 2024 that were released in previous years. It's nice to look back and reflect on all we accomplished in 2024, and films we watched are part of those accomplishments. These are the best, our favourite, most likely to be rewatched, and worthy to be mentioned.

From the imagination of director Ernie Barbarash we talk Too Close For Christmas. The third film collaboration we have done on the show with generational talents Jessica Lowndes and Chad Michael Murray. Also we talk cheese and crackers.
