Mike Phillips has on myself, Allen Austin and Samantha De Rosa go through and do a four round snake draft of our favorite baseball movies! Baseball is back baby!
Just a movie check-in of what I have watched over the past couple days. From the 1978 style horror of Piranha to the delightfully violent Guns Akimbo, In between all these I also watched The Old Guard, which I did not like at all and am still SHOCKED that people enjoyed.
Mike Phillips has me on as a guest on his "Just End The Suffering Podcast" and together we gush over John Wick and the universe he inhabits. Then we briefly touch on "Hamilton" and our impressions of it.
Netflix. How could you do this to me? How could you Charlize Theron like this!? The latest straight to streaming Netflix production is a mess of a movie with bad action, bad writing and some really bad acting. "The Old Guard" is a skip on every mark.
Sophie Stanko joins to podcast to talk about Hamilton, the play now turned movie that lives up to all the hype...and more. Sophie brings a enthusiasm and experience in theater as we talk about what made Lin-Manuel Miranda's masterpiece so magical. How does the play translate into a movie? What are the top songs? What does this mean for Broadway plays in cinematic forms?
Amazon Prime original movie "My Spy" takes time to get its feet underneath itself, but in the end it's an enjoyable family friendly adventure. The movie stars Dave Bautista, Chloe Coleman, Parisa Fitz-Henley and Kristen Schaal.
Over the past few days I have seen "The Italian Job" (1969), "Bad Education" (2020), "Athlete A" (2020), "Blow The Man Down" (2020). In a nice twist...all of them are really good! "The Italian Job": B "Bad Education": A "Athlete A": A "Blow The Man Down": B+
Scoob! came out on HBO Max, so it was time to see if the Mystery Gang could entertain for a new generation.

Be sure to check out Mike Phillips' blog - "Just End The Suffering" and his coinciding podcast on SoundCloud and all streaming platforms.
Rob Manfred, What Are You Doing?? Mike Phillips lets me rant about what is happening (or what isn't happening).
Well this film is not a happy one. But that doesn't mean it's bad! My initial reaction "The Lodge" directed by Severin Fiala and Veronika Franz.
How good is Adam Sandler in"Uncut Gems"? Unbelievably good. My movie theater experience...well let's say not the most desirable. But the movie "Uncut Gems" itself is worth the price of admission twice over.
Mike Phillips ("Just End The Suffering" Podcast) and I talk about our most disappointing and worse movies of the 2010s. We are also joined by Garrett Murray with a celeb appearance.

Special shout out to Mike Phillips for having me on his podcast to…discus…and vent…about Star Wars: Episode XIV – The Rise Of Skywalker!

Full SPOILERS come at 42:13, where Jon Stanko stops by to recap the movie and look ahead to the future of the franchise (1:31:20) in an epic episode.
Let's just say...I had a reaction. Begins with my instant reaction to Star Wars: Episode XIV - The Rise of Skywalker. The rant goes on for 10:10, followed by eight minutes of what my feelings were going into the movie. Little bit of after and before. Again, spoilers and NSFW warning. I had takes.
Made a guest appearance on Mike Phillips' "Just End The Suffering" Podcast to talk Watchmen!
My instant reaction to seeing Rian Johnson's fantastic who-dun-it "Knives Out" (Spoilers)
I'll admit to being the guy who read the book first, but here are my takes on "The Shining" sequel, and "Doctor Sleep".
Very simple here. If you like Rambo, you'll like this latest installment.
My coworkers and friends Jack Clark and Steve Kultzow joined me for a snake draft comprising of our top five Iona Athletic moments this season. It could be a game, a moment, a memory, and event; everything was on the table. Listen and let us know if we missed any!
One of the most overrated things in sports...professional drafts and god forbid attending one.
Touch on a few news pieces at the top before reviewing "In Order Of Disappearance" and "Godzilla: King Of The Monsters". Then joined by Michael Phillips to talk about "Pokemon: Detective Pikachu" and various video games we'd like to be made into movies. We close it out with a trailer roundup. Apologies for the the non-ideal audio during the interview and intermittent. A trail run to be improved going forward.
