Madison proclaims she has finally broken the season premiere curse, but Chelsea thinks her cohost has tampered with the results. Either way, they both agree that people would wage war for the pleasure of Heath Ledger's smile, and Chaucer has never been more accurately portrayed in film. With a stacked cast including Paul Bettany, Alan Tudyk, not to mention the deadly cheekbones of Rufus Sewell, this hilarious medieval romp will leave you yearning for ren faire to return.Connect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time. The cinematic world of love and laughter had rom-com enthusiast Madison head over heels from the time Harry met Sally. For genre skeptic Chelsea, however, it's been a grueling enemies-to-lovers plot.

Twenty-five years ago, director Curtis Hanson (8 Mile, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle) followed up his widely acclaimed crime drama classic LA Confidential with this quirky adaptation of the Michael Chabon novel of the same name. This tells the simple story of Professor Grady Tripp (Michael Douglas) who wrote ONE great novel several years and is having.....some difficulties....writing the follow-up. Beyond that, he has one headmaster's wife (Frances McDormand) who he's been having an affair with, a highly impressionable much younger student (Katie Holmes) who is enamored with him, a nebbishy editor/publisher (Robert Downey Jr.) who keeps hounding him for that next book, and.....a wayward student James Leer (Tobey Maguire) whom he gets mixed up with in some incident involving a dog that gets shot. James Leer also looks up to Grady and also just might be The Next Great American Writer. And there's more plot and several more characters to boot....plot is almost incidental as this Pittsburgh-set character comedy has more to it than plot. How about interesting characters, comical situations, and loads of fun dialogue to boot!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
In this episode, the Munsons dive into the versatile and wildly entertaining career of Alan Tudyk, joined by guest Munson, Mike Van de Voort. From battling a nasty case of hives in his first film role alongside Robin Williams to shattering Case's box office spreadsheet with his staggering number of billion-dollar films, Tudyk's career is nothing short of legendary. We explore his rigorous training at Juilliard (and pirate camp), the less-than-glamorous roles his agent forced upon him, and the (potentially) infamous Alan Tudyk bird scale. Of course, we can't resist gushing over his iconic performances in Tucker and Dale vs. Evil and Resident Alien, while also celebrating the countless animated characters he has brought to life. Buckle up for a deep dive into one of Hollywood's most underrated chameleons! How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Alexis Hejna and Jason Teasley present their Creature Commandos 2024 TV Show Review! Creature Commandos is an adult animated superhero television series based on the eponymous team from DC Comics. Produced by DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation, it is the first television series and the first installment in the DC Universe (DCU). The series focuses on a black ops team of monsters assembled by Amanda Waller. All seven episodes of the first season were written by series creator James Gunn, with Dean Lorey serving as showrunner and Yves "Balak" Bigerel as supervising director.The series features an ensemble cast including Indira Varma, Sean Gunn, Alan Tudyk, Zoë Chao, David Harbour, and Frank Grillo. After James Gunn and Peter Safran became co-CEOs of DC Studios in October 2022, they announced Creature Commandos in January 2023. Production on the series had begun by then and casting was underway. The cast was announced that April. Bobbypills and Studio IAM provided animation for the series.Creature Commandos premiered on the streaming service Max on December 5, 2024, with its first two episodes. The series received positive reviews from critics, who praised the voice performances, animation, and Gunn's storytelling. It is the first entry in the DCU's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. In December 2024, the series was renewed for a second season.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59
The first animated series for James Gunn's DCU has concluded and we've got a lot thoughts. Mainly, why are we still coding disability as monstrous? Is David Zaslav running security in Pokolistan? What's the over-under on at least one student wanting to get freaky with a fish girl? Is Doctor Phosphorus the show's MVP?

This week we're talking about the start(?) of the new DCU with the entire first season of Creature Commandos and there's a lot to talk about here. This is a jam packed episode. We realize that we have never had a complaint about Alan Tudyk, discuss the problematic elements of the writing (CW: sexual assault), James Gunn loving himself, and the broader messy implications of the new DCU.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes. It wasn't quite the box office battle Hollywood wanted it to be this weekend with Wicked and Gladiator II going toe to toe in movie theaters. The musical movie adaptation soared with a nearly $114 million domestic opening, making it the biggest premiere ever for a Broadway movie adaptation. Into the Woods previously held that title, opening to just $31 million in 2014. Internationally, Wicked raked in an additional $50.2 million giving it a total opening of $164 million. While Gladiator II limped behind the musical phenomenon domestically, opening to $55.5 million, it succeeded in the international market to the tune of $165.5 million and overtook Wicked's worldwide box office significantly due to opening one week earlier internationally. The Blonde Bond himself, Daniel Craig, is a potential star for the feature film Sgt. Rock, which is in early development with DC Studios. While nothing is known about the plot, the character first appeared in comics in 1959 as a World War II soldier and was created by Robert Kanigher and Joe Kubert. Challengers director Luca Guadagnino is set to direct and his screenwriting collaborator on both Challengers and upcoming film Queer, Justin Kurtizkes, will pen the script. In a deleted scene from Season 2 of Loki — part of an impending 4K UHD Blu-ray release — Loki recalls just how many people said Loki was a problem while talking with his friend Mobius over slices of key lime pie. After listing many names, Loki also brings up two villains from Marvel comics that audiences have not yet encountered in the MCU. The first is Amora, also known as Enchantress and the second is Absorbing Man, who began life as a boxer named Carl Creel, a character seen in Agents of Shield, — until Loki poisons him with an elixir that gives him the ability to transform his body into the quality of anything he touches. At the very end, Loki also brings up Hercules, who appeared in a post credits scene of Thor: Love and Thunder. Disney and Lucasfilm have revealed that animated anthology series Star Wars: Visions is coming back for a third volume in 2025. A new teaser has been released for Noah Hawley's upcoming Alien franchise series titled Alien: Earth that confirms the series will arrive in the summer of 2025 on FX and Hulu. Deadline has confirmed that Suits spinoff series Suits: LA will feature the return of Gabriel Macht who played Harvey Specter on the original series in a limited reprisal of his role that is being described as a three episode arc. Robert Pattinson and Charlize Theron have both joined the cast of Christopher Nolan's upcoming untitled film. They join Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong'o, and Matt Damon. Banijay Rights, the distributor for Netflix anthology series Black Mirror, has struck a deal with Neil Gibson's UK-based Twisted Comics to create comics based on several of the episodes of the series. Developer CD Projekt announced The Witcher 4 video game is now in full-scale production. Isabel May, best known for her role in Yellowstone prequel series 1883 and 1923, has joined the cast of Scream 7 and will play Neve Campbell's daughter. Samuel L. Jackson is in negotiations for a key role in J.J. Abrams' untitled feature at Warner Bros. He joins Jenna Ortega, Glen Powell, and Emma Mackey. In an interview about his upcoming voice role of Doctor Phosphorus in Creature Commandos, Alan Tudyk confirmed that he will also voice Clayface in the series. Tudyk also voices Clayface on Harley Quinn: The Animated Series and its spin-off Kite-Man: Hell Yeah!, but this version will be a new iteration of the character.
