Cole was too busy watching actual basketball, so Nicole and Stu are left to fend for themselves in alien territory as we enter the worlds of shoes and sports with the Affleck/Damon brand-biopic. Is it a fleeting microgenre, or are products the new comic books? We discuss what makes the film hollow and irritating, the limits of slipping 'subversive' messages into hyper-corporate movies, the odd way it handles Michael Jordan as a figure, it's success with xillennials, endless 80s nostalgia, and how the film doubles as a pitch for Affleck and Damon's revenue-sharing based studio 'Artists Equity'.

It's all about animation and Tribeca Film Festival this week on BEHIND THE LENS! And not just any animation, but world premiere animation shorts – DEAR UPSTAIRS NEIGHBORS and ROAR, both animated gems led by filmmakers with a Pixar pedigree – animation editor SARAH AFFLECK and writer/director JESSE WEGLEIN, respectively. First up, we're gonna roar with writer/director/editor/dp/and songwriter JESSE WEGLEIN and his beautiful short ROAR! ROAR follows a neurodivergent young girl with selective mutism who, after being uprooted from Tokyo to San Francisco, must navigate a chaotic new culture and an isolating silence by transforming her internal K-Pop soundtrack into a vibrant visual language to find her place—and her new roar. Then, more animation goodness for you from animation editor SARAH AFFLECK and DEAR UPSTAIRS NEIGHBORS. DEAR UPSTAIRS NEIGHBORS is the fantastical and all-too-relatable story of one woman's epic battle against her noisy neighbors for a good night's sleep. As I told Sarah Affleck, this short from director Connie He could directly pertain to my condo neighbors, and I'm betting some of your neighbors, too! This is one high-energy, FUN, short film! http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Der Judge des Sneakpods hätte die düstere Geldfinde-Krimi-Problematik, die in The Rip erzählt wird, höchstwahrscheinlich effizienter als Affleck und Damon gelöst, er hätte aber auch ein furchteinflößenderes Begleittier zur Hand gehabt. Ob letzteres am kommenden Vater-Kind-Zelten teilnehmen wird dürfen, ist fraglich. Sicher ist nur, dass unser diesjähriger ESC-Content wenig retrospektiv bereits in der heutigen Folge ausgebreitet wird.
GREEN ROOM (2015) Director: Jeremy Saulnier Cast: Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Alia Shawkat, Patrick StewartA punk band walks into a Nazi bar. No, that's not the setup for a joke — it's the setup for one of the most suffocating, nerve-shredding thrillers of the last decade. This week on Dewey Pod Monster, Sean and John dig deep into Jeremy Saulnier's 2015 siege film Green Room, where a broke touring punk band witnesses a murder backstage and suddenly finds itself trapped in a standoff with a very organized, very murderous gang of neo-Nazi skinheads. Spoiler: the dogs are not friendly.In this episode, we discuss:Captain Picard's Cold-Blooded Era — Patrick Stewart plays Darcy, the calculating Nazi ringleader, with such chilling charisma that both hosts can't stop talking about it. He's warm, persuasive, and absolutely terrifying — and apparently has been acting since the 1760s, so he's had time to practice.Would a Real Punk Band Actually Do This? — John goes full music nerd and calls out the movie's two biggest logical leaps: why any self-respecting anti-Nazi punk band would knowingly play a neo-Nazi club, and how they survived long enough to open with Nazi Punks Fuck Off without getting murdered on stage. Sean defends the film. John is unconvinced.The Art of Doing More With Less — Shot on a $5 million budget with basically three sets, Green Room delivers a masterclass in compressed, claustrophobic tension. The hosts debate whether it's a horror film, a thriller, or just a really unpleasant Tuesday night — and explore how Saulnier's visual style echoes David Fincher's color palette and controlled camera work.One-Handed Shotgun Detour — The conversation takes a brief detour to John's other watch this week, The Rip (Netflix), starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in a cop drama that almost holds together — right up until Affleck fires a shotgun with one hand out a moving SUV window. John has thoughts.We Also Talked About:Long Shot (1981) (Internet Archive) — A Leif Garrett teen heartthrob vehicle about a high school soccer star who plans to fund his European football dreams by winning a foosball tournament. It is exactly as good as that sounds.Long Gone (1987) (Youtube) — An HBO baseball film set in 1957 following the fictional Tampico Stogies minor league team, starring William Petersen and Dermot Mulroney. A discovered gem to some; "it was fine" to Sean.The Lowdown (2025) (Amazon) — An FX series starring Ethan Hawke as a truth-chasing freelance journalist in Tulsa investigating what may or may not be a murder. Coen Brothers vibes, from the director of Reservation Dogs. Sean's wife kept interrupting him.Disco Lunch by The Boy Detective (Youtube) — A southeastern Michigan ska-horror-punk album that John is furious he didn't listen to sooner. Available on streaming and in vinyl variants at Pinkerton Records.Unlocked (Netflix) — A real-jail social experiment show where prisoners are allowed to semi-govern themselves. John watched Season 2 and found himself unable to sympathize with a single person in it.Blue Ruin (2013) — Saulnier's previous film and the first entry in his loose "revenge trilogy." Essential viewing if Green Room is your entry point.Rebel Ridge (2024) — The unofficial third film in Saulnier's spiritual trilogy. Mentioned as context for why Sean has been tracking this director for years.New episodes of the Dewey Pod Monster podcast drop every week. We're proud members of the YouRun Podcast Network.

High in the mist-shrouded Cairngorms, where the winter wind bites like a vice, lies the domain of a long-spoken, unsettling presence. For over a hundred years, the climbers of Ben Macdui have told stories of a towering figure pacing just beyond sight and of booming footsteps lost in the fog. Known as the Big Grey Man, few have seen it, several have heard it and even more sensed it, but just about none have ever agreed on what “it” actually is.

Ben Affleck's Argo (2012) In 2012 Ben Affleck would co-write and direct Argo, winning the Best Picture of the Year at at that year's Academy Awards celebration. Although a skillful and professional job it's - quite simply and obviously - a hack job, typical of the US's need to paint itself in the proper light while also giving Hollywood the opportunity to congratulate itself yet again (as well as short-changing the Canadian Government). An obvious and simplistic piece of political propaganda, Affleck's film continues the pattern of white-washing a serious topic while also reinforcing the idea that the US is the guardian, victim, and champion of the free world (whatever the hell that means). Democracy is safe because of the US's continued struggle against dissident elements throughout the world (in this case the Iranian Revolution). This week Mr. Chavez & I discuss the propaganda of this film, the role of the C.I.A. as saviour, dishonesty in storytelling and the note by note moments that make up a rescue mission movie. Take a listen, it's an interesting and relevant talk. Questions, Comments, Complaints & Suggestions: gondoramos@yahoo.com - Many, Many Thanks.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes revisit "Changing Lanes", the early 2000s drama built around one bad day and two men whose lives collide in all the worst ways.Mike Butler remembers enjoying this film the first time around, and on rewatch there is still a lot to like. The dual protagonist structure, where each man also serves as the other's antagonist, creates an interesting dynamic. Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Affleck both deliver strong performances, bringing intensity and humanity to characters pushed to their limits.Mike Field also appreciates the performances and the decision to treat this concept as a grounded drama rather than a more conventional action thriller. However, he finds the dual main character setup distracting, making it harder to fully invest in either character's journey.Both Mikes agree the film is not without its flaws. There are noticeable contrivances, and the resolution leans a bit too conveniently toward a tidy ending. Butler also feels Affleck's character could have used more development, particularly in showing what drives him toward the darker choices he begins to make.Even with those issues, "Changing Lanes" remains a compelling and thoughtful early-2000s drama, anchored by strong performances and a premise that still resonates.

We continue to learn more about Jack... Ryan this week as we move into the third part of our marathon. Not only do we get a new movie for a new decade, we get another new Jack Ryan — Ben Affleck. Maybe most noted for its mid-film set piece that stands as eerie bit of business at the time of release, Affleck's Ryan outing is rooted in the action filmmaking style of the 2000s. How does it hold up? How do Clancy's politics continue to shift? We discuss all of that and much more on this episode. Tune in now!
Our Oscar retrospective continues as we revisit a past Best Actor winner with Kenneth Lonergan's Manchester by the Sea.Casey Affleck's haunting, restrained performance anchors one of the most emotionally raw films of the past decade. We dive into how the film portrays grief without melodrama, the power of silence in performance, and why Affleck's Oscar-winning turn feels so painfully authentic.We also discuss Lonergan's writing, the film's New England atmosphere, and the quiet moments that hit harder than any dramatic monologue ever could.Subtle, heartbreaking, and deeply human — this is Oscar-winning acting at its most vulnerable.#WatchTowerFilmPodcast #OscarSeason #ManchesterByTheSea #BestActor #CaseyAffleck #KennethLonergan #FilmPodcast #AcademyAwards #CharacterStudy #ModernCinema
A gritty, twisty one-night siege thriller that actually looks great (yes, you can see what's happening). The RIP throws Matt Damon and Ben Affleck into a paranoid, internal-corruption nightmare where everyone feels suspicious and every conversation sounds like it has a second meaning.The setupMiami PD captain Jackie Veles is executed by masked hitters after sending one last message and ditching her phone in the river. The FBI descends on the TNT squad (Tactical Narcotics Team), grilling Damon's Dane and Affleck's JD Byrne with a barrage of insinuations—then drops a key reveal: the lead agent is Affleck's brother (Scott Adkins), and it gets physical.What we dig intoThe “big score” tip: Dane gets a text about serious cash—then tells each teammate a different number (immediately sketchy).The money house: a run-down suburban place with a single pristine attic space hiding buckets of cash—enough to bring cartel heat and dirty cops out of the woodwork.Procedure vs panic: phones confiscated, on-site double counts, and the creeping feeling that everyone has an angle.Corruption lore: VCAT baggage, rumours of a cop “crew” that hunts cash stashes, and the sense the real enemy is inside the system.The siege and the switch: masked shooters, cartel contact, and the film's central fun: constantly reassigning blame as the night spirals.Motifs that land (and one that doesn't): the tattoo mantra (“Are we the good guys? We are, and always will be”), the “see another sunrise” thread… and the slightly daft full-circle beat at the end.The verdictThis is Knives Out with tattoos and automatic weapons—a clean, propulsive plot, strong tension, and a solid Damon/Affleck double-act. It's not subtle about cop-mythology, but as a contained, twist-forward thriller with a great cast and tight pacing, it's an easy Strong Recommend.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

This week on Forgotten Cinema: Now Showing, the Mikes are talking about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's new movie, "The Rip". And just like almost every single Netflix film...it's fine. Mid. Meh.Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss how the great performances by Damon and Affleck push this film slightly above the Netflix norm. But poor writing, dark and empty sets with a skeleton cast keep this film from being all that it can be. Is this the future of cinema? Do we have to hear them say they have to get "the rip" 9000 times to remind second screen audiences what's going on?Seems to us like it's mostly just films you'd find in the DVD bargain bin at your local superstore.

The duo teamed up with writer-director Joe Carnahan to bring the script to life — inspired by true events from Miami Police Department's Tactical Narcotics Team.

Gift Someone (Or Yourself) An RR Tee! https://shorturl.at/hekk2 It's a Boston Christmas in January as Coy & Greg REUNITE for The Rip Reaction, Recap, Breakdown, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!! Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to The Rip (2025), the upcoming Netflix crime thriller from co-Writer / Director Joe Carnahan (Narc, The Grey, Smokin' Aces, The A-Team) that reunites longtime collaborators Matt Damon & Ben Affleck in a gritty, character-driven story about loyalty, desperation, and the thin line between justice and crime as a group of Miami cops discovers a stash of millions in cash, leading to distrust as outsiders learn about the huge seizure, making them question who to trust & who to rely on. What results is a tense, grounded thriller in the vein of Heat & Affleck's own The Town, focusing on the fallout of a high-stakes criminal operation gone wrong. The film stars Matt Damon (The Bourne Identity, Oppenheimer) and Ben Affleck (Argo, Gone Girl) as central figures caught on opposite sides of a dangerous moral divide, with their characters bound by a shared past, forced into a collision course when a lucrative score begins to unravel. Set against a contemporary urban backdrop, the story explores how greed, pressure, and unfinished business can “rip” relationships apart, testing trust between partners, friends, and family. The supporting cast includes Teyana Taylor (One Battle After Another), Scott Adkins (John Wick: Chapter 4, The Expendables 2), Catalina Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace, From), Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights, Godzilla vs. Kong), Steven Yeun (Minari, Beef), Sasha Calle (The Flash, On My Block), Néstor Carbonell (The Dark Knight, Lost), & More!

SEASON 4 EPISODE 50: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: The newest crimes this week mean he's now committed 32 of the 40 "sins" Thomas Jefferson accused King George III of in The Declaration of Independence: He's telling those protesting the dead on the streets of Iran that he'll defend them while telling those protesting the dead on the streets of Minneapolis that his 'government' was right to kill them. He's raided the home of a journalist, trampling the 1st Amendment He's threatened taxation without representation over sanctuary cities He's unilaterally cut off visas from 75 countries (including thirteen countries headed here in June for soccer's World Cup) Trump has now lost any remaining moral authority to continue as president of this country. We must peacefully counteract his increasingly repressive and immoral and violent actions and threats and what looks like only two options regarding the midterms and 2028: he wants to either fix the elections for Trumpists or eliminate them outright. Object? He’ll buy you or blackmail you or hire somebody to KILL you. I mean, what are ICE agents if not private paramilitary gangsters, hired by Trump, to kill you? On what Trump promises is “the day of reckoning and retribution” against Minnesota. What do we do next? B-Block (30:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Bill Maher bristles at a joke (well, when was the last time he actually made, or heard, a joke?) There's another new idiot Congresswoman who wants Tim Walz arrested over the murder of Renee Good. And the Fox News writer who believes we are under attack by gangs of ANTIFA WINE MOMS. C-Block (41:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The "Ford Finger" incident with Trump reminded me of the day the right wing tried to bury Tom Hanks over what they thought was disrespect to staffers at a movie event.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sweaty palms, bad decisions, and the creeping realization that the walls are closing in have always been Joe Carnahan's cinematic comfort zone, from the raw nerve of “Narc” to the adrenalized chaos of “Smokin' Aces.” With “The Rip,” Carnahan distills that obsession into its most claustrophobic form yet, a lean, pressure-cooker cop thriller that weaponizes procedure, grief, and mistrust by refusing to let anyone leave the room.Premiering January 16 on Netflix, the film follows a team of law enforcement officers tasked with counting a massive cash seizure inside a private home, only to realize the money has placed them squarely in someone else's crosshairs, turning routine protocol into a moral and physical siege where loyalty fractures and survival comes at a cost. The film stars Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Kyle Chandler, Scott Adkins, and more.On this episode of The Discourse, host Mike DeAngelo is joined by writer-director Joe Carnahan to discuss how “The Rip” grew out of deeply personal real-life experience, why confinement can be more terrifying than scale, collaborating with Damon and Affleck as producers, and why character-driven crime stories continue to pull him back more than any franchise machinery.

Happy holidays ToB Fans! Completing a string of 3 straight publicly available Film Club episodes, commemorating the show's relaunch, we finish with our annual tradition of doing a Christmas movie for December. This year, with Matt joining the show it was his choice. He went with a movie from the mid-2000s that he's revisited time and again - 'Surviving Christmas'. A Ben Affleck vehicle that comes from a rocky era of his, just one year removed from 'Gili'. Fortunately, it features a strong supporting cast, with both Catherine O'Hara and the late James Gandolfini stealing the show and preventing this from being a complete disaster. Devoid of any type of strong holiday message, we spend much of the movie indulging Affleck's character's obnoxious desires, and despite some funny moments peppered throughout and a relatively strong third act, the tonal inconsistency and unlikability of the main character leave this movie mired in mediocrity. See you all again in 2026!
In this episode of the show our December retrospective of Ben Affleck's works behind the camera continues with Live by Night. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us discuss the challenges of adapting Dennis Lehane's sprawling gangster epic, the possibility that Affleck might have bitten more than he could chew at the time and that imitating Scorsese is much more difficult than meets the eye. We also talk about Affleck's physical transformation and why he might not look his best in baggy period-accurate suits, the problem of following a dense story without a good hook or a compelling protagonist, the criminal underuse of many great character actors and much more!Tune in and enjoy!Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy BurrowsFeaturing: Nicolo GrassoIntro: Infraction - CassetteOutro: Infraction - DaydreamHead over to uncutgemspodcast.com to find all of our archival episodes and more!Follow us on Twitter (@UncutGemsPod), IG (@UncutGemsPod) and Facebook (@UncutGemsPod)Buy us a coffee over at Ko-Fi.com (ko-fi.com/uncutgemspod)Subscribe to our Patreon!

THIS PODCAST IS AVAILABLE IN FULL FOR FREE ON OUR PATREON!!! (patreon.com/uncutgemspod)In this last bonus tie-in podcast of the year we are discussing Ben Affleck's most acclaimed movie Argo. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about where Argo ranks among Affleck's directorial efforts, how it stacks up against other prominent movies of its year, how many historical inaccuracies it sports and whether it even matters at all. We also talk about Affleck directing himself in an internalized performance, the alluring idea of making movies about movies and how movies save the world, and that sometimes embellishing reality in service of emotional realism may triumph over factually correct screenwriting. Finally, we spare a few precious thoughts on John Goodman and Alan Arkin's performances and how they serve to comment on Hollywood, and we also find time to relitigate a few old arguments regarding our opinions on Bryan Cranston and the way one should pronounce Warren Beatty's surname.

In this episode of the show, our Ben Affleck mini-retrospective continues with The Town. Over the course of our chat you will hear us talk about whether The Town is a herald of filmmaking growth from Affleck, how he directs his own performance and how the ideas of organic authenticity explored in Gone Baby Gone translate to a different genre. We comment on Affleck's directorial style, Jeremy Renner's powerhouse performance and the many flourishes connecting The Town to such filmmakers as Michael Mann, Ridley Scott and John Frankenheimer. We also chuckle at a few shots here and there, wonder if FBI agents rehearse their PowerPoint presentations and show gratitude that these bank robbers had a habit of raiding barber shops for DNA with which they could use to contaminate crime scenes and not other establishments where DNA is also found.

Pop 3:The Golden Bachelor is officially flopping — ratings for Mel Owens' season have dropped to less than half of Gerry Turner's, with producers reportedly “embarrassed” and blaming a miscast lead. Meanwhile, over in Netflix land, Love Is Blind success story Amber “AD” Smith and Ollie Sutherland tied the knot after meeting on Perfect Match season 3. And The Kardashians returned this week, with Kim finally opening up about Kanye, health scares, and major stress while Khloé carries the show and Kourtney… would rather be anywhere else. Deep Dive: DWTS Drama The Dancing with the Stars fandom is heated this week. Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas got in trouble by ABC for promoting an unauthorized giveaway to the Halloween show. Meanwhile, Maks Chmerkovskiy stirred the pot by saying pro dancer Jan “has no business being on DWTS.” Val came to his brother's defense but also said Jan did better his first season than Val did in his own debut. Jan took the high road, saying, “Whoever is trying to stay relevant by spreading hate, that's not the way.” Final Thoughts: Love Is Blind Weddings None of the final couples end up getting married and there are major questions looming ahead of the reunion.

Book Vs. Movie: “He's Just Not That Into You” The 2004 Liz Tuccillo & Greg Behrendt Book Vs the 2009 Jennifer Aniston FilmPicture it: the Sex and the City writer's room. Writers Liz Tuccillo & Greg Behrendt overhear a female coworker asking for relationship advice (at work, but that's another issue for another time) about guy she's been seeing. After hearing a litany of red flags, Behrendt pipes up with, “He's just not that into you.” And thus was born an empire. It's the quip that became an episode on a hit HBO show that became a bestselling, Oprah-featured, self-help book that became a movie.
