Projected Opinions

Hey Listeners, this is an episode we recorded months ago and recently realized we hadn't published. So here it is now: our review of the movie Searching.

It's been forever since we've podcaster! Nathan has been working on sets and finishing up his semester, while Matt has been working on his home. Finally, we've seen some stuff worth mentioning! This week we review Green Book, a historical drama based on real events. The movie stars Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali and impressed us both as a solid entry this year. Rating 7.5/10 Go and see this film, it's worth the time.

Sorry about this late release, but life has been a whirlwind for both Matt and Nathan. This review of Bad Times will hopefully convince you to see this incredible movie. If you've been waiting for evidence that the guys don't hate everything they see, this episode is for you!

Matt and Nathan are still trying to figure out how they feel about Damien Chazelle's latest work, First Man. The Whiplash and La La Land director has success in everything he tries his hand at, but the guys aren't so sure audiences will love this Neil Armstrong biopic as much. This episode was live-streamed on FaceBook live. Like our Projected Opinions page to get notifications every time we record.

Matt and Nathan review venom, the latest Sony produced superhero film. Venom is a Spiderman villain in the Marvel universe, which Sony still owns the rights to as long as they keep making movies (that’s why we’ve had three Spiderman in 10 years)… But, unlike the latest Spiderman film, Sony did not share the production of them with Disney’s marvel studios. Guess how that went. We hope you enjoyed this episode live on Facebook where we now stream a recording sessions. Head to our page and like it to get notifications when we film our next episode!

Here's a story of Matt who was asked to go to see The Predator by his friend Nathan... guess how that went. But seriously, in this episode, the guys will review the latest cash grab by a Hollywood studio that has already beaten the franchise to death. Nathan describes different types of shots used to help stories make sense, and gives us all a anecdote that no one asked for: Shane Black apparently makes most of his movie stories take place during Christmas time. Feel free to tell us what you'd like to see! Twitter: @ProjectedOps Email: ProjectedOpinions@gmail.com

Matt and Nathan discuss the smaller production, Operation Finale. Description from IMDb: "A team of secret agents set out to track down the Nazi officer who masterminded the Holocaust." Sorry it's been so long everyone, we've both been really busy and there was another episode that was supposed to come out before this, but the audio got corrupted and we lost it. Thankfully, we've been more consistent as of late, so there are several episodes heading your way!

Matt and Nathan are finally back to discuss the summer blockbuster, Mission Impossible: Fallout.

This week, Matt and Nathan discuss the newest film from director Stephen Spielberg, Ready Player One.

On this very special episode of the Projected Opinions Podcast, Matt discusses The Shape of Water and The Silent Child with guests Dr. S. Jordan Wright and Dylan Lutes, members of the deaf community. They examine Hollywood's portrayal of people with disabilities and how The Shape of Water failed to actual sign language. NOTE: This episode is interpreted for our deaf guests, and therefore there are brief pauses throughout. We have not edited those pauses out, so that listeners might better experience a conversation with someone who is deaf and uses an interpreter. A link to the video version of this podcast is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ0d-D2HY6w&feature=youtu.be (Special thanks to Dr. Laura Maddux for interpreting for this episode.)
