Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy have done one final review show for 2022 and close it out with some biggies. It was quite a year for documentaries and they finish with four new ones including the story of a natural disaster tragedy (The Volcano: Rescue From Whakaari), the face of the Psychic Readers Network (Call Me Miss Cleo), a relationship between author and editor (Turn Every Page – The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb) and Laura Poitras' new film on artist and activist Nan Goldin (All The Beauty and the Bloodshed). The pair revisit their Sundance review of the remake of Ikiru with Bill Nighy (Living) and Olivia Colman takes an unexpected trip with a kid (Joyride). Rebel Wilson deals with a traumatic brain injury (The Almond And The Seahorse), Hugh Jackman deals with a depressed teenager (The Son) and director Alejandro G. Inarritu deals with his own career (Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths). Antonio Banderas returns as the swashbuckling kitty (Puss in Boots: The Last Wish), Damien Chazelle tackles Hollywood pre-and-post talkies (Babylon) and James Cameron finally takes us back to the world of the Na'vi after 13 years (Avatar: The Way of Water) 0:00 - Intro 2:18 - Living 14:20 - Turn Every Page – The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb 23:51 – The Volcano: Rescue From Whakaari 31:28 - All The Beauty and the Bloodshed 41:37 - Call Me Miss Cleo 49:29 – The Almond And The Seahorse 57:08 - The Son 1:11:35 - Joyride 1:18:27 - Puss in Boots: The Last Wish 1:31:06 - Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths 1:45:10 - Babylon 2:04:44 - Avatar: The Way of Water 2:29:38 - Outro
Christmas is coming, and the goose isn't the only thing that's getting fat. The Empire Podcast is bursting at the seams with incredible guests yet again, as we welcome a trio of top directors this week. First up, you get a brief excerpt from Chris Hewitt's live Q&A with James Cameron as he returns to cinemas with Avatar: The Way Of Water (the full show will be up soon, should you wish to listen to the rest; and you should!). Then, Amon Warmann has a nice in-depth chat with Alejandro G. Inarritu about his most personal film yet, Bardo: False Chronicle Of A Handful Of Truths, and then Chris talks to Spirited director Sean Anders about turning Dickens into a musical. Oh, and Chris gushes about one of Anders' films. No, not Daddy's Home 2. Although it is a Christmas movie. Then, in the virtual podbooth this week, Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer to talk about the movie-themed Christmas presents they'd like, the film they've bought the most; to discuss the week's movie news, including Henry Cavill's on-off-on-off-again relationship with Superman; and review Bardo, The Amazing Maurice and that water film. Enjoy.

Connor and Riley are joined by New Zealand cinematographer Nigel Bluck to discuss the cult favorite road film Two-Lane Blacktop. This film stars singer-songwriter James Taylor, and Beach Boy's drummer Dennis Wilson in the lead roles.

Ah, that virtue of ignorance. It's just so unexpected. So cue the drummer and turn Michael Keaton loose as the Next 140 Project jumps deep into the Best Picture of 2014. We’re not sure this was the right choice for the Academy’s highest honour in what was a dynamite year at the movies, but we still enjoyed this funny & weird Broadway offering from Alejandro G. Inarritu. There are some problematic elements that the film glosses over and the film is quite indulgent, but it’s a tremendous technical accomplishment and it's got plenty of good laughs. How often does the movie that wins Best Picture qualify as a comedy...or a fantasy? A great way to get through your day is to guzzle some Sparkplug Coffee.
