Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Probably the film I had the least amount of expectations for. I was looking forward to it (because I like new movies in the theater) but I wouldn't say I was super excited about it. Wow I was wrong. This is a blast to watch, and everyone should go see it. It's funny, has great action, and adds fantastic characters to an already rich MCU. Can't wait for more of the Ten Rings. --- Shang-Chi, the master of unarmed weaponry-based Kung Fu, is forced to confront his past after being drawn into the Ten Rings organization. --- Show Notes Leave a Review on Podchaser for a free screen pass Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge Check out Matt Goes to the Movies wherever you get your podcasts --- SHOW LINKS Facbook.com/basementbinge Instagram @thebasementbinge or send me an email - harrison@thebasementbinge.com Help the show by leaving a review on Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge You can also follow me on Letterboxd @HARRYPerry13 Best of the Best intro music by Anthony P.

La La Land, I joked that the first time I watched this - I watched it wrong. But despite not liking it, I fell in love with the music. And eventually, I came around to it, and fell in love. So I have been looking forward to this for quite some time now. I've got a lot to say about La La Land, and why it's a great story about chasing down dreams. --- I'm giving away a digital copy of La La Land!

Reminiscence, a movie that I was only slightly interested in because of the cool concept, but only sat my but in a theater seat for Hugh Jackman and Rebecca Ferguson. Walking out, I was actually impressed.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: Out of the Shadows Of all movies to pick for the podcast in honor of my birthday - why this one? Well, I really love the first, and you can't have it on The Basement Binge without also getting to the sequel. And while I do have a soft spot for these turtles and the way this film and one random scene has inspired me, there isn't much else to remember. So I brought Matt and back from 'Matt Goes to Movies' to help me have some fun with this dissapointment.

This is not your typical Basement Binge episode, and it was not planned at all. But something came to me as I was preparing for "Out of the Shadows" and I knew it was a story I just had to tell. How Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows have been a significant part in my life, more than I ever realized. So if you were ever curious what inspired the weird segment "Fall In" -this is the episode for you.

WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA!? Let me tell you all the reasons this is a bad idea - Furious 7 is the perfect ending - Nothing (not even a cute Vin Deisel Baby) can replay Brian O'Conner - This is supposed to be about family, nothing in this movie is really about family - 6 and 7 were already way too over the top - here it is much worse And it is all really a shame because F. Gary Gray would have made a fantastic Fast movie with a better script. Just look at his Italian Job remake. So give it a listen for a good time as we roast this thing.

Cruella, a film that I hadn't given much thought to, but purchased tickets anyway, just to see Emma Stone and Cruella. Being back in a theater delivered on that premise 110% and gave me so much more to love! Here is why I think this might be one of the most entertaining films I have seen this year! --- Cruella - "In 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, a young grifter named Estella is determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella's flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute. But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella." Starring: Emma Stone, Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, John McCrea, and Mark Strong. Directed by Craig Gillespie. --- Show Notes Leave a Review on Podchaser for a free screen pass Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge Check out Matt Goes to the Movies wherever you get your podcasts --- SHOW LINKS Facbook.com/basementbinge Instagram @thebasementbinge or send me an email - harrison@thebasementbinge.com Help the show by leaving a review on Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge You can also follow me on Letterboxd @HARRYPerry13 Best of the Best intro music by Anthony P.

How can I even begin to talk about Your Name (Kimi no Na wa)? For the longest time, it has felt like an insurmountable task. Too much too good to ever be able to provide any justice to this amazing film. How can I convey the jaw-dropping beauty of the 2D animation or the emotional heart of the incredible score from RADWIMPS, let alone trying to express anything coherent of the power that this story tells? But I couldn't let this "Unintentional Animation Season" come to its end without getting to a film as great as Your Name. This is something special, even magical, and more people need to see it. Beyond that, I just need to get these thoughts out of my head, because it's keeping me up at night. Something THIS good deserves to be talked about nonstop!

Continuing on with this unintentional animation Binge, we have - Missing Link from Laika Studios. I've heard some pretty sad things about this film, especially considering it lost about $80 Million Dollars at the Box office. It was on Hulu so I streamed it, hoping to find some great reason to call it a Hidden Gem. After that first watch, I was quite harsh. But a second watch with my nephew, I came around. So this is what I thought!

"The Noise is man thoughts unfiltered, and without a filter, a man is just chaos walking." For years I have been seeing that dumb ad on IMDb claiming that Chaos Walking was "unreleasable" just to get a great trailer and a release date in March 2021 during a global Pandemic. My love for Daisy Ridley was something that made me want this project to finally happen. Then to learn Doug Liman was directing, I was genuinely excited. He may not be the best working director, but he has skills for fun popcorn flicks with great action and awesome world-building. Add the always great Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland and it seemed pretty good. Like I said I really liked that trailer. So this past weekend, my wife and I got our tickets and a full popcorn bucket and saw Chaos walking. Here are my thoughts completely spoiler-free, if this is something you are deciding to see or not. If you have seen it and want to hear more, I do get into a bit of spoiler talk in the last few segments. In the not-too-distant future, Todd Hewitt (Tom Holland) discovers Viola (Daisy Ridley), a mysterious girl who crash lands on his planet, where all the women have disappeared and the men are afflicted by "the Noise" - a force that puts all their thoughts on display. In this dangerous landscape, Viola's life is threatened - and as Todd vows to protect her, he will have to discover his own inner power and unlock the planet's dark secrets. From the director of The Bourne Identity and Edge of Tomorrow and based on the best-selling novel The Knife of Never Letting Go, Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland star with Mads Mikkelsen, Demián Bichir, Cynthia Erivo, Nick Jonas, Kurt Sutter, and David Oyelowo in Chaos Walking.

Kubo and the Two Strings from Laika, come onto my radar quite a while ago, as I was browsing through the Wikipedia page of Travis Knight (Director) because of his Director position with Bumblebee. It was a time in my life when I was beginning to be exposed to a lot more than just blockbusters. Nonetheless, Kubo remained a low priority on my watch list, because I never wanted to pay money to rent it. With this recent fix I have had on watching these animated films that have been on my watchlist for far too long, Kubo finally earned its turn. I am so glad that it did, and that I decided to watch it for The Basement Binge. It is already one of my new favorites and is just about perfect for the segments of the Basement Binge. So lets FALL IN. If you are interested in seeing this production style there are some great YouTube videos Credited As: Stop Motion Animator - great explanation of what it is like to do stop motion from Daniel Alderson (Fantastic Mr. Fox, ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls) THE ART AND SCIENCE OF LAIKA - 45 minutes 'TED talk' from Laika themselves Show Notes Connect on Social Media Facbook.com/basementbinge Instagram @thebasementbinge or send me an email - harrison@thebasementbinge.com Help the show by leaving a review on Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge You can also follow me on Letterboxd @HARRYPerry13 Best of the Best intro music by Anthony P.

This is not a normal episode. Wreck-It Ralph has meant a lot to me personally from the very first time I saw it in theaters way back in 2012. So 9 years later as I find myself even more like Ralph than I did before, something inside me is pushing to release a very different type of podcast. So this is my very personal history with Wreck-It Ralph and why it means so much to me!

Fantastic Mr. Fox was the first in a long list of Blu Rays on my shelf I could not wait to get to. Having been recommended it by a great friend with a similar sense of humor years ago, I couldn't wait. But it had to wait for the podcast schedule. The time finally came, and after watching, I realized that as much as I loved it I wasn't really sure what to think. Some acclimation was definitely needed. (Since recording I have rewatched it and for sure love it). Here is my review of Fantastic Mr. Fox --- This is the story of Mr. Fox (George Clooney) and his wild-ways of hen heckling, turkey taking, and cider sipping, nocturnal, instinctive adventures. He has to put his wild days behind him and do what fathers do best: be responsible. He is too rebellious. He is too wild. He is going to try "just one more raid" on the three nastiest, meanest farmers that are Walter Boggis (Robin Hurlstone), Nathan Bunce (Hugo Guinness), and Franklin Bean (Sir Michael Gambon). It is a tale of crossing the line of family responsibilities and midnight adventure and the friendships and awakenings of this country life that is inhabited by Fantastic Mr. Fox and his friends. Written and Directed by the great Wes Anderson, this wacky animated classic is great for everyone in the whole family, and not just in the dumb kids' movie tagline kind of way. It has is beautiful to look at, with an amazing cast, hilarious deadpan jokes, and a very important message.

SO WHAT EVEN HAPPENED THIS MONTH? January has flown by and February already seems to be moving even faster. But 2021 is looking out to be a slightly improved 2020. At least in the world of film releases. Warner Brothers may have figured something out with this new HBO Max and theater release, doing well at the Box Office (in Covid terms) and with HBO subscribers. The rest of the studios are still figuring it out as we get a repeat of last year with way too many film release dates delayed (again). But hey! Disney+ has some great things coming through the pipeline! The Basement Binge is now in video form on YouTube!

The Kid Who Would Be King is a film perfectly described as a "Hidden Gem." Dumped with a bad release in January of 2018, I spent too many cold mornings staring at the poor poster waiting for the bus. I instantly judged it, sadly to later realize this is one of those special releases that deserve to be treasured. The re-telling of the classic epic of King Arthur and the Sword in the Stone, from the experience of brave 12-year-olds. Full of adventures, and heart, battles against demons and firey undead knights, and a hilarious young Merlin. It is packed with so much to enjoy, and an incredible meaningful message of hope, I am sure you will love it! --- Old school magic meets the modern world in this epic adventure. Alex (Louis Ashbourne Serkis) thinks he's just another nobody, until he stumbles upon the mythical sword in the stone, Excalibur. Now, he must unite his friends and enemies into a band of knights and, together with the legendary wizard Merlin (Sir Patrick Stewart), take on the wicked enchantress Morgana (Rebecca Ferguson). With the future at stake, Alex must become the great leader he never dreamed he could be. Written and Directed by the great Joe Cornish, this fun kids adventure is something for all of us. Currently streaming on HBO Max and VOD.

SO WHAT EVEN HAPPENED THIS MONTH? December was a very interesting month, with a very strange end to the year. Either way, SO LONG 2020. Completing another trip around the sun doesn't immediately change everything, but I am excited for the symbol of new opportunities the new year brings. We have some updated news about Legendary and Warner Brothers working out a deal for Godzilla vs Kong and Dune. Coming in January is the first-ever live-action MCU TV series premiering on Disney+ WandaVisioin.

Warm Bodies stole my cold High School heart way back in 2013. With the help of Teresa Palmer and M83, it has become a film that has never left my memories! So years later I came to revisit and was touched by how much heart this silly Zombie Rom-Com has, and promised my wife I would do a podcast on it! So I decided it would be a great Christmas episode!! --- If you would like to learn more about my Christmas message you can email me at harrison@thebasementbinge.com or contact me on social media (listed below) or visit ComeUntoChrist.org Written and directed by Jonathan Levine and starring Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer, based on a book by the same name comes the heartfelt and silly Zombie romantic comedy - Warm Bodies. After a highly unusual zombie saves a still-living girl from an attack, the two form a relationship that sets in motion events that might transform the entire lifeless world.

One of the films have looked most forward to this year is Monster Hunter. Knowing nothing of the word of Paul W. S. Anderson, I was a little nervous as reviews of his work only revealed it could be hit or miss. But I think Milla Jovovich is a total boss and as a HUGE fan of the game (logging over 5000+ hours in MH3U alone) I was excited to give it a chance - in good faith. So Saturday morning my brother and I headed to our local Cinemark - and had a great time! --- So should you go see it? That is up to you to decide! --- From the video game to the live-action director behind 'Residents Evil' and 'Event Horizon' and based loosly on the Capcom game "Monster Hunter Word" comes - Monster Hunter When Lt. Artemis and her loyal soldiers are transported to a new world, they engage in a desperate battle for survival against enormous enemies with incredible powers.

[#52] Luc Besson has one crazy imagination! But I honestly had no idea! All I knew was this was a space opera that had some mixed reviews and the Blu Ray was on sale for under $5. So sure why not, lets buy it. Then it just sat on my shelf.

[#51] Studio Ghibli and more specifically Hayao Miyazaki are quickly becoming a personal favorite among movies and animation! Each film they produce is so fun and touching and after Spirited Away I was a life long fan! So moving onto the next in my collection of Blu Rays is "Howl's Moving Castle". After Spirited Away blew everyone away there were a lot of English actors ready to be a part of the next amazing piece from Miyazaki. Namely Christian Bale. Also packed in this ensemble cast is Emily Mortimer, Jean Simmons, Lauren Bell (who wanted to mary Miyazaki), and Billy Crystal. Based on the book by Diana Wynne Jones of the same title released in 1986, Howl's Moving Castle is the story of an unconfident young woman who is cursed with an old body by a spiteful witch, her only chance of breaking the spell lies with a self-indulgent yet insecure young wizard and his companions in his legged, walking castle. Like the author said herself, it is a touching story about how "if you love someone enough all sorts of extraordinary other things happen in your surrounds as well, and you can achieve great things even if the world falls to pieces around you." "It is meant to be enjoyed. I want everyone to enjoy it and laugh, and rejoice about it because it is a wonderful thing." - Diana Jones Show Notes Connect on Social Media Facbook.com/basementbinge Instagram @thebasementbinge or send me an email - harrison@thebasementbinge.com Help the show by leaving a review on Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge You can also follow me on Letterboxd @HARRYPerry13 Best of the Best intro music by Anthony P.

The Second-Ever Basement Binge "Monthly Update". Probably the most tired and scatterbrained I have ever been when sitting down to record. Between being busy with work, the election, and trying to find some inner peace, it feels like time has flown right by and I have no idea what has been happening. So as scatterbrained as I feel. It was good to sit down and talk about things that excite me. As always thanks for your support.
The Mandalorian took the world by storm back in the calm world of 2019. When Season 2 was announced I was both excited and nervous. But after all that we have endured in 2020, The Mandalorian Season 2 is here, and it is so much fun to enjoy! So this is the first-ever "Mando-Mini".

EPISODE 50!! WE MADE IT! IT TOOKS A WHILE, FULL OF HIGHS AND LOWS, BUT WE MADE IT! Thank you so much for being here and downloading, helping me make it to 50 episodes! Onto 100!! A while back I saw my first ever Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki movie: Princess Mononoke. It absolutely blew me away! I was in a trance for days and couldn't wait to experience more. So the next time I was at Best Buy I bought Spirited Away blind. Just because of all the amazing things I had heard about his specific film. I had specifically been saving it for episode 50. It was so glad it was finally here! I'm not really sure what my expectations were but after the credits finished, I wasn't very impressed. Besides the beautiful animation, I didn't have many positive things to say. Because I was still processing, but as I gave myself time to think, the more I realized the power in this story. Hayao Miyazaki is a master artist and I am very grateful for the impact this film has had on me over the last few days/weeks! Let me tell you all about it! Let me know what you thought of the review on support the show by leaving a review on Podchaser.com/thebasementbinge ----more---- Spirited Away is a 2001 Studio Ghibli, traditional 2D animated movie. Written and Directed by Hayao Miyazaki. Winning the second-ever "Best Animated Feature Film" Oscar from the Academy Awards. "During her family's move to the suburbs, a sullen 10-year-old girl wanders into a world ruled by gods, witches, and spirits, and where humans are changed into beasts."

Episode #49 I recently heard for the first time ever, the phrase - "Lightning in a Bottle" - which I was instantly tantalized by! But if there was ever a perfect idea to express the greatness of the John Krasinksi Horror film A QUIET PLACE, it would be "Lightning in a Bottle". I am a total wimp when it comes to all things horror, but a film this good (and some motivation from my wife) can always get me to eventually press play! A horror film made on a budget of just $13 million, no less by a first time director, most famous for his role in The Office. HOW DOES THAT FILM EXCELL THIS WELL!? Like the Abbot's themselves, the result of amazingly talented people working together. Let me tell you all about it! ----more---- "A Quiet Place" is a 2018 Horror/Thriller film written by Bryan Woods & Scott Beck and John Krasinski, Directed by John Krasinksi, Staring: Emily Blunt, John Krasinksi, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe. "In a post-apocalyptic world, a family is forced to live in silence while hiding from monsters with ultra-sensitive hearing." Spooky Season is here at The Basement Binge, for the first time ever!!
