Today we are joined by Cooper Tomlinson from the "That's A Bad Idea" sketch group to talk about his new psychological thriller Obsession, the importance of the communal theater experience, and the "creature feature" genre. Will confesses that he gave up a childhood stop-motion claymation career because of a friend's comment, Liam reveals he is doing a documentary-style watch-through of every Shia LaBeouf film, and Cooper describes the surreal experience of seeing his own billboards on the way to the studio.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert.  For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion.  There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. This month, we welcome Brennan Klein back to the show to discuss Marci X, an early-aughts comedy of manners that had Lisa Kudrow rapping, and also wrapping up her career, and if you thought that joke was lame, wait until you hear some of the ones we make in the episode.  Join us for a rollicking multilayered journey into white girls doing Kenyan folk dance, gay boys singing abstinence ballads (or is it abstinence boys singing gay ballads?), and Kudrow and Damon Wayans possibly being the unsung comedy couple of the decade.  You won't want to miss this one, since you almost certainly missed the movie!* *(But hey, it made more money than Spiral and The Hottie and the Nottie put together!)

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert.  For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion.  There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. April's Your Movie Rocks sees the return of two Alternate Ending main characters: editor-in-chief Tim Brayton back for his second go-round; and The Guy From The Hottie & the Nottie, last heard from in the episode on Spiral (2007), and visiting with us again, because, well...we're talking about The Hottie & the Nottie, the near-universally-reviled 2008 lightning rod of Paris Hilton hate. Tune in to learn whether Mandy succeeds at becoming one of the world's only Hottie & the Nottie defenders, to find out if Tim has warmed on it at all in the 15 years since he last experienced it, and to decide if you agree with Tim's assessment that this YMR choice was the cruelest thing he has ever done to another human being. Enjoy!

Fresh of off One Battle After Another and Sinners sharing a combined haul of 10 Oscars, the Alternate Ending crew is here with our thoughts on the ceremony and winners. Tim is joined by Cameron and Caleb to talk about the surprises, the weird technical snafus, and have a hot debate over the inherent distastefulness of the In Memoriam montage.

Send a textIn this episode, Dan goes to Alternate Ending and interviews Killsboro who made the trek across the bridge for a collab. We talk to them about the collab, their new killer location, and the last decade in the beer game. Topics range from their love for lager to pizza toppings to Wu-tang Clan.Later in the episode Dan talks to one of the founders of the nationwide Brewsology beerfests. They talk about this weekend's event and the future of beerfests around the country as well as the idea to mix beers and museums for a great experience.Chase from Top Beer Drops joins to the talk about the top rated beers of the previous week - a week in which the number one beer came from one of our local favorites. And we talk about some of the recent and noteworthy beers released locally as well as a bunch of beer-related events happening this weekend alone.

The Alternate Ending team, led by Brennan, prepares for the movies of March, a surprisingly full schedule of horror movies, among other things. Before the show, Caleb brings the new critical darling The Testament of Ann Lee to the movie roundtable, while Brennan suffers through Return to Silent Hill. Brian, overachiever that he is, has re-watched the entire Jack Ryan movie series, and shares his thoughts.

The Alternate Ending podcast was born on 3 January 2016, when the husband-and-wife team of Rob and Carrie Jarosinski shared their picks for the top 5 movies of all time. The site and the podcast have both seen a lot of changes since then, and we're taking this moment to look back over all the changes the decade has witnessed here at Alternate Ending, and in the wide world of movies overall. Such a special topic deserves a big sprawling all-star treatment, so Tim is joined by four other members of the Alternate Ending podcast family to take a walk down memory lane: Bride of Alternate Ending's Brennan Klein, Mandy Albert of Your Movie Rocks, Brian Fowler, and Cameron Shaw. Together, the crew talks about the site's history, our favorite moments from the podcast, and more, including Tim's review of the 2006 fantasy film Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses, by request of Patreon supporter Kyrie.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. To kick off the second year of the show, Mandy welcomes Alternate Ending regular Brian Fowler, who has tasked her with watching the movie Spiral - not that one, the other one. No, the one from 2007 that virtually nobody has seen or heard of. The one starring The Hottie & the Nottie's Joel David Moore. Just how many souls "virtually nobody" actually means is one of the main topics of discussion between Mandy and Brian, as is Brian's steadfast belief that this is actually a pretty special psychological thriller, and he wants more people to hear about it. Will Mandy agree with Brian's warm assessment? Listen to find out!

January is a rough, wintry month for the movies, but one of the bright spots is that it means the arrival of the Sundance Film Festival. And the Alternate Ending crew is taking this as a good opportunity to celebrate the life and career of Sundance founder - among many other highlights - Robert Redford, who died in September 2025. Tim is joined by Caleb Wimble and Zev Burrows for this deep dive into the acting, directing, and general good deeds of one of the last great movie stars. Before turning to discuss Redford, the trio shares three films for our movie roundtable: Caleb brings the current awards hopeful Sentimental Value, Zev travels to 1955 Japan for the punishing character drama Forever a Woman by director Tanaka Kinuyo, and Patreon supporter M.C. Steffen assigns Tim the ludicrous Christian propaganda film/courtroom thriller Suing the Devil.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. The first year of Your Movie Rocks ends on a very special episode, in which Mandy is joined by her former student Ali Roberts (@deranged_hands on Instagram), now a film student and filmmaker. And, it turns out, a tough player of the YMR game, assigning Mandy the appalling-looking direct-to-video animated feature Life's a Jungle: Africa's Most Wanted. But by God, Mandy will find the good and the beautiful about this ungainly piece of Madagascar-sploitation, and have a great time doing it.

As 2025 winds down, the cold and bitter specter of a January that's unusually barren of even the usual kind of January new releases rears its icy head. To help weather this winter storm, Brennan Klein is joined by Brian Fowler and Caleb Wimble as they find whatever they can to sustain themselves until the spring. Plus, they've decided to forego the usual movie roundtable in lieu of a tribute to the late Rob Reiner, whose passing earlier in December came as such a shock to the film world. Join us in celebrating an estimable filmmaking career on this year-ending episode of Alternate Ending!

Dan and Brian welcome Brennan Klein from Alternate Ending to celebrate some of their shared cinematic interests and then dissect a strange COVID-era holiday romcom, Dear Christmas. Join as they discuss the ranking of Disney's Zombies movies, the Hallmark-and-co holiday romcom industrial complex, the alien qualities of a quarantine production, the many occupations of Jason Priestley's character, ephemeral conflict, the baffling depiction of podcasting, glassblowing music, and the fine line between bland and bizarre. Brennan can be found several places online: Most socials @ItsRainingBrens: https://x.com/itsrainingbrens Alternate Ending: https://www.alternateending.com/ ScreenRant: https://screenrant.com/author/brennan-klein/ Dan's movie reviews: http://thegoodsreviews.com/ Subscribe, join the Discord, and find us on Letterboxd: http://thegoodsfilmpodcast.com/  

This week sees the release of Avatar: Fire and Ash, the tenth narrative feature directed by James Cameron, and that seemed like an auspicious enough number to use it as an excuse to celebrate. Alternate Ending's resident Avatar maniac, Tim Brayton, is joined by a trio of fellow Cameron-heads: Zev Burrows, Andrew Milne, and Caleb Wimble. And the four of them dilly-dally for as much time as Ol' Jim himself might do in going over his directorial career, and some of his other interests, culminating in our picks for the best films of his slender but massively popular filmography. As a warm up, the team has an all-2020s movie roundtable this time: Caleb sees Oscar hopeful tearjerker Hamnet, Andrew raises and then crushes our hopes with the samurai drama Tornado, Zev puzzles around with Yorgos Lanthimos's newest weird fiction, Bugonia, and Tim deals with one of the decade's most confusing distribution platforms to see Kurosawa Kiyoshi's 45 minute filmlet Chime, by request of Patreon subscriber... Caleb Wimble. Well how about that.

'Tis the season for an viewing diet unhealthily dominated by ugly sweaters, fake snow, and immaculately trimmed prop Christmas trees, and the Alternate Ending gang is celebrating by bringing Tim and Brennan together to discuss something other than horror cinema for a change. They're joined by terrible Christmas movie expert Cameron, and the three of them are sharing their thoughts - or in Tim's cases, confusions - on the omnipresent modern holiday movie genre, slick and cheesy romantic comedies made by Netflix, Hallmark, Lifetime, and other fine purveyors of shameless cinematic comfort food. It's a holly jolly time on this very special episode of Alternate Ending!

We've been sitting on this idea for a while, but with Chloe Zhao's Oscar hopeful Hamnet opening this month, it seemed like as good a time as any to finally move forward with one of the biggest topics a film podcast can tackle: big-screen adaptations of the work of Elizabethen/Jacobean playwright William Shakespeare, the most-adapted writer in film history on top of being the most famous name in the history of both English drama and English literature. Such a grand subject deserves a bigger crowd, so this week, Tim is joined by no fewer than three Alternate Ending regulars: Gavin McDowell, Brian Fowler, and Caleb Wimble. Together they discuss what makes a good Shakespeare movie, what we should do with adaptations that discard the original text, and why there are such a disproportionately high number of good Macbeths. Before the main event, our regular movie roundtable covers a wide range of movies, as wide as the number of genres good old Billy S. touched on his career: Brian has caught up with Black Phone 2, Gavin celebrates Armistice Day with nice, pleasant WWI/Armenian genocide movie, 2016's The Promise, Caleb has checked out the brand-new Predator: Badlands, and thanks to Patreon supporter Robin Zimmerman, Tim is here to discuss 2015 cult film Turbo Kid.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. For November's episode, Mandy invites her colleague Inara on to discuss a subject about which Mandy knows practically nothing: cube-based videogame Minecraft. And more importantly, what happens when filmmakers try to convert those cubes into characters for the feature-length A Minecraft Movie, which remains at the start of November the highest-grossing film of 2025 at the U.S. box office. Come for Mandy's bafflement at what there is to this universe beyond "cubes", stay for her emerging theory of good stupid vs bad stupid in art.

Send us a textIn this episode, Dan talks with Kyle of Horus Aged Ales. Kyle visited New Jersey doing several collabs and sat down with Dan at Alternate Ending. He talks about the two collabs he is doing at Alternate Ending, his untraditional rise to popularity in the beer world, and why he loves doing collabs so much. He also shares stories related to his love for food, disc golf, and why birds are such a prominent feature in his beer labels and his life. He also teases ahead to a few future collabs that we should all keep our eyes on and might even sell you on why spreadsheets are cool.Also in this episode - Chase from Top Beer Drops talks about the top rated new beers of the past week which includes a lot of local names and some of the same hops that keep making the list - Eggers. Dan talks about the new releases that caught his eye including some notable collabs and two breweries that are celebrating anniversaries this week with some killer collabs on the taplist.

October 13, 2025 marked the 75th anniversary of the premiere of the Oscar-winning classic All About Eve, which the Alternate Ending crew decided made for a perfect excuse to revisit one of the most remarkable face-offs between two evenly-matched masterpieces in cinema history. In this corner: Eve, the caustically witty dark comedy about backstabbing and ageism in the world of legitimate theater. In the far corner: Sunset Blvd., the lacerating film noir about madness and ageism in the world of motion pictures. Two of the medium's most iconic female lead performances, top-tier screenplays by two of Hollywood's most celebrated writers... even if the team can't pick a favorite, it's a pleasure just to get to luxuriate in the presence of these two icons. To discuss the highs and... higher highs of these two classics, Tim is joined by Cameron, and Brian, and not least Zev, whose idea this was in the first place. Before getting to the main showdown, Cameron shares her thoughts on the new must-see cinephile bait, Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, Zev catches up with the must-see-somewhat-less DreamWorks Animation comedy Dog Man, and courtesy of Patreon supporter and regular podcast guest Andrew Milne, Tim gets a third perfect 10/10 masterwork to talk about, in the form of John Woo's 1989 action epic The Killer. Brian unfortunately wasn't able to catch up with a movie, as he's just out a stay at the hospital that's put him out of work for a few weeks. Help him out during this difficult time by visiting his GoFundMe page!

For this bonus episode of the Alternate Ending podcast, Tim is once again joined by film scholar Will Quade, author of the recent article "We Accuse: Antisemitism and Historical Remembrance in the Films of the Dreyfus Affair" published in The International Journal of the Image. They're here to discuss the remarkable path to distribution of the controversial 2019 Roman Polanski film An Officer and a Spy, which has only just received a North American release in the fall of 2025. Together, they explore questions of the conflicting politics driving the film's delayed release, the conflicting politics within the film itself, and the reasons why the film itself forces a reckoning with the complicated and unpleasant questions it raises.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. For October's episode, Mandy is watching a movie about a bunch of people in funky costumes haunted by the specter of death: no, not a horror movie, the notorious 1967 Beatles fiasco Magical Mystery Tour, thanks to Beatles fan and regular Alternate Ending podcast guest Cameron Shaw. Together, Mandy and Cameron try to figure out what the hell was going on with this shoot, what the hell was going on with the Beatles, and really just what the hell was going on with the 1960s, while also contemplating the ineffable beauty of 16mm semi-professional cinematography. And Cameron finds time to share some deep lore about Tim's prehistory. Roll up, step right this way, and give it a listen!

A creepy old house on Stacey's street is set to be demolished, and the baby-sitters (along with honorary BSC member Charlotte Johanssen) are convinced that there is a mystery surrounding the strange happenings at the property. But… is there? Is Stoneybrook built on an ancient burial ground? What's with all those flies? Is the mystery just a collective hallucination inspired by a few good horror movies? Join us and our return guest Tim to watch the old house and its mystery come tumbling down in Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook. A few links from our conversation: The Amityville Horror (1979) Pet Sematary (1989)  Summer of My German Soldier The rules of War (card game) Tim's excellent film review podcast and website, Alternate Ending, where they're discovering good movies, one bad movie at a time. Was there a haunted house in your neighborhood? We want to hear about it! Find us on Instagram @stoneybrookreunion or send us an email at stoneybrookreunion@gmail.com. 

Send us a textIn this episode, Dan goes to Alternate Ending and hangs with the folks from Finback who were there collabing on an upcoming beer. Dan talks to Basil, Kevin, and Daniel from Finback about their 11 years as a brewery, the changes in the beer world since they opened, and how they have made Finback into what it is today.Jose of Yankeerunner IG fame joins the conversation and talks about this year's Melesa's Wings and the upcoming milestone in terms of fundraising. He also teases ahead to what is to be expected this year.Chase from Top Beer Drops joins the podcast to talk about the top 10 new beers of the past week which includes one of Dan's favorite breweries taking the top spot. We also talk about some of the local beers that caught our eye including many Oktoberfest beers which are making their way to the local taps.

1. Original2. Shorter Ending3. Longer Ending

September might be one of the most notorious dumping grounds on the cinematic calendar, but the Alternate Ending crew is still excited enough to talk about it that Brennan has been joined by no fewer than three guests this time. Caleb, Brian, and Mandy are on hand to see if there are any silk purses to be made out of this sow's ear of a month, and as it turns out, there's one title in particular that has everybody on the panel genuinely excited. Even beyond that, a few of our brave guests try to make the case that there might be something to remain hopeful for as autumn comes along to shove summer to the side. For the movie roundtable, we have four new releases to talk about: Caleb catches up with the buzzy Netflix original KPop Demon Hunters, Mandy grimaces through the body horror relationship drama Together, and Brennan checks in on the last smash hit of the summer, Weapons. And Brian felt duty-bound to check out an icon's return to motion pictures in Sweet Revenge, and boy does everybody end up having some very strong feelings on that one...

There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. August's episode is a very special one: Mandy welcomes to the AE podcasting family non other than Josh Albert, her co-host from the Star Trek: Enterprise podcast At Least There's a Dog - who is also, not incidentally, her husband - who comes with an olive branch to the AE community. Knowing that Christopher Nolan's 2020 time-shifting spy thriller Tenet is a highly contentious text on the Alternate Ending discord, Josh felt like it would be worthwhile for Mandy and himself to finally sit down and watch the thing and see what all the hubbub is about. And since Josh is a trained particle physicist and Mandy hates chase scenes, this movie full of cool chases and bad physics has a lot of hubbub indeed. Do they heal the rift in the AE family? The only way to find out is to listen!

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. In July's episode, Mandy gets her second Zack Snyder movie in six months, thanks to Brian Fowler, who assigns her all three and a half hours of Watchman: Ultimate Cut, the even longer and less cohesive version of a movie she quite disliked in its original theatrical version. Will the addition of hyper-violent pirate animation be enough to sway her over to Snyder's massive vision? And what dark betrayal led Brian to pick this movie for Mandy in the first place? Tune in to hear the answers to these and other questions, learn Mandy's theory about the color yellow, and revisit those long-ago days when superhero movies were still kind of a weird novelty.

In this weeks episode we dream up better endings to the worlds best movies.Stu gets bleak. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. In Episode 5, Mandy is joined by AE regular Andrew Milne for a lively discussion of a movie that does not even occupy the same fold of spacetime as her wheelhouse: Shimomura Yuji's Crazy Samurai Musashi (2020), a psychology experiment in the form of a movie.  But was it an enjoyable psychology experiment?  Tune in to hear Mandy and Andrew develop a Grand Theory of Crazy Samurai Musashi in real time, learn about one of the strangest movie gimmicks of the decade so far, and find out why Andrew was so eager to revisit a movie that made him angry the first time around.   You can snag a copy of Andrew's novel White Scar Across the Firmament here!

In 1997, David Fincher followed up Se7en with what may be his most intricately plotted story with The Game. Michael Douglas continued his time owning the 1990s with another high profile role in Nicholas Van Orton. Joining Douglas is Sean Penn, Deborah Kara Unger, and a supporting cast to drool over. From IMDB: A mysterious game invades a man's ordered existence. Alternate Ending

Our topic this week is the very embodiment of "discovering good movies, one bad movie at a time": finding the scenes that actually work in movies that mostly don't Tim is joined by Mandy, whose Your Movie Rocks podcast makes her the perfect expert at finding the diamonds in a pile of coal (or a pile of... something else, as she describes on the episode), and we're also very thrilled to welcome back to the Alternate Ending podcast world Rioghnach Robinson. Before they talk about the subject of the day, as part of our movie roundtable Mandy (goaded by Tim) goes long on the new The Luckiest Man in America, Rioghnach goes back a couple of years to the unjustly overlooked I Want You Back from 2022, and thanks to Patreon supporter Hallvarður, Tim finally caches up with Jacques Rivette's iconic 1974 masterpiece Céline and Julie Go Boating.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. In Episode 4, Mandy and Gavin McDowell have what might very well be the single nerdiest conversation in the history of Alternate Ending as they discuss the 2009 costume drama Agora, and spend even more time discussing the history of the early Christian church and schools of Greek philosophy, leading to some rather intense, inflamed passions about what does and does not make sense to include in a cinematic treatment of a bunch of ancient Alexandrines that 99.9% of the audience will never have heard of. Tune in to hear why Gavin selected a movie for Mandy about which he already knew her opinion, hear his pitch for a musical about the Council of Ephesus, and learn way, way more about 4th Century Egypt history and historiography than you would ever expect to learn from a movie podcast.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert.  For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion.  There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. For Episode 3, Mandy is joined by Zev Burrows for some quality time In a Lonely Place (1950) with Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Grahame.  Tune in to find out what it has in common with The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, why more movies should be made in the middle of their stars' messy divorces, and what Zev was thinking when he decided, like a weirdo, that it might be fun to watch a good movie for the podcast.

Editor's note: apologies to Mandy for bumping this episode by a week to make room for our Oscar special. Starting in April, Your Movie Rocks will be back to its usual spot on the first Tuesday of the month. Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert.  For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion.  There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. On Episode 1, Mandy and AE horrormeister Brennan Klein think and speak at length about The Bye Bye Man, a movie whose previous claim to fame was inspiring one of the all-time great Tim Brayton review lines.  Tune in to find out how far Mandy's unconditional love for Doug Jones can carry her, and why Brennan is still thinking about it (and saying it) eight years after its release.

Hot on the heels of Anora winning five Oscars, the Alternate Ending crew is here with our thoughts on the ceremony and winners. Tim is joined by Cameron and Caleb to discuss the best and worst outfits, the relative merits of musical performances at the Academy Awards, the etiquette of the In Memoriam montage, and what we lost when the Academy refused to stage a face-off between Dune: Part Two and Furiosa. Your Movie Rocks with Mandy Albert has been postponed for a week. Look for the next episode of that series on Tuesday, March 11!
