We kick off a fresh new decade for Amblin with our last - at least for now - Clint Eastwood movie, the 2010 supernatural drama HEREAFTER. Our Clint journey began with something of a surprising gem with The Bridges of Madison County,and to bookend our experience with Mr. Eastwood we also get a film full of surprises; a meditative, pragmatic  look at belief, grief and questions of life and death. We get into it all, from Peter Morgan's triptych screenplay, the range of performances, its occasionally bizarre swings, to Charles Dickens and Pizza Express. TRIGGER WARNING: In the episode we discuss matters of grief, loss and death - and particularly on the experience of losing loved ones.Follow the podcast on Twitter (@RamblinAmblin), Instagram (@ramblinamblinpod) and Blusky (@ramblinamblin.bsky.social).

Grab your bug spray and your makeshift flamethrowers as NostalgiaCast braves Frank Marshall's ARACHNOPHOBIA for the latest '90s Bucket List episode, starring Jeff Daniels, John Goodman, and the late, great Julian Sands. Listen as Jonny and Darin discuss the movie's creepy-crawly Spielberg-ian touches, its perfect balance of comedy and scares, and lament how modern moviegoers try to "outsmart" the films they watch instead of engaging with the magic of them. Let's rock 'n' roll! 

The next sequel we will discuss is "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama 2", a Full Moon Feature. For it, I chatted with the writer, Shane Bitterling. Shane wrote most of his Full Moon Credits under the name Kent Roudebush. Shane/Kent talked about his journey from Indiana to Hollywood, his early writing jobs, his friendship with the writer of Critters, Dominic Muir, a meeting at Amblin, and a ton more. Shane's IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0084535/Kent's IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4551376/?ref_=tt_ov_wr_1Your homework is to watch "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama 2" which is free on Tubi, which I read was a censored version.Follow us on all social media @sequelsonly and our website is sequelsonly.com Review, rate, and share us with your friends, enemies, neighbors, exes, and even that annoying supermarket clerk!

Clint Eastwood's two-picture project looking the Battle of Iwo Jima reaches its conclusion (as does the 00s for Amblin) with LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA, this time following the perspective of the Japanese soldiers on the island, who employed a unique strategy that took both the Americans and their own country by surprise. To examine these letters, we invite host of All 90s Action All the Time Scott Murphy to dig into what makes this the more successful film of the two, from the figure of Ken Watanabe's General Kuribayashi, to the ensemble cast at large, its strength as an anti-War movie and the inherent surprise that such a feature should come from one Clint Eastwood. It's a film of such stark, searing power, and one that is so good, we had to record our thoughts twice…You can follow Scott's podcast on X @90sAction and can find the show wherever you get your podcasts. Vote for your favourite Amblin movies of the 00s here: https://forms.gle/XHBdU1iit3g4YH9C8 Follow the podcast on Twitter (@RamblinAmblin), Instagram (@ramblinamblinpod) and Blusky (@ramblinamblin.bsky.social).

The Spiel welcomes Anthony Breznican, Vespe's Kingcast co-host and entertainment reporter extraordinaire at Vanity Fair, to talk about Amblin's Innerspace. This weird-ass movie was directed by Joe Dante and produced by Spielberg and is all about a shrunk down Dennis Quaid getting injected into Martin Short's butt and that's just the start of this crazy '80s flick. Bond-esque villains, mini-Kevin McCarthy, a pissed off screenwriter and a who's who of very famous people that almost made this movie. Innerspace is a trip and a hell of a lot of fun to revisit.

GRATIS hasta el día 31 de marzo. En este episodio solo para suscriptores y oyentes premium, viajamos al corazón de Amblin, la productora que marcó los 80 y 90 con el sello inconfundible de Spielberg. Aventura, humor y animación. ¿Puede alguien que no sea Spielberg hacer películas que parecen de él? Hablamos de Regreso al futuro, Animaniacs, Fievel, el ratón con más drama de los 80, y cómo Gremlins nos enseñó que las normas están para romperse… con consecuencias catastróficas. Nostalgia a paladas, anécdotas y algún que otro desvarío en una charla donde, como siempre, no sacaremos nada en claro, pero esperamos que al menos estés un rato entretenido.

The right picture can win or lose a war, and they don't come more iconic than the image of US Marines raising the American flag atop a mountain in Iwo Jima. But the story behind an image isn't always so red, white and blue, as shown in Clint Eastwood's sombre World War Two drama FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS. There is plenty to dive into and explore in both the film itself and the real history of the men who were - or perhaps weren't - in the iconic image. To help us examine that iconography, we welcome back returning guest Rhys Edwards. Join us as we explore what is a more unconventional war film than its surface may suggest. Follow the podcast on Twitter (@RamblinAmblin), Instagram (@ramblinamblinpod) and Blusky (@ramblinamblin.bsky.social).

On this episode we dive deep into the making The Invisible Raptor with writer and star Mike Capes and producer Nic Neary. The film is a hilarious, Amblin-inspired horror-comedy that delivers big creature-feature thrills (without ever showing the creature itself).Mike and Nic share how the movie originated as a 3 AM idea, the journey from script to screen, and how they secured funding and distribution in a competitive indie film market. They also get into guerrilla filmmaking tactics, crafting a compelling pitch package, boosting production value with amazing locations and handling on-set crises. Please enjoy this conversation with Nic Neary and Mike Capes.Show NotesMovies Mentioned:Jurassic Park (1993)Ghostbusters (1984)The Goonies (1985)Indiana Jones franchiseE.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)Jaws (1975)Airplane! (1980)The Naked Gun (1988)Gremlins (1984)Super Troopers (2001)Speed (1994)Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (1985)Ghostbusters II (1989)Terrifier (2016)It's Always Sunny in PhiladelphiaTeen WolfHere are some key takeaways from this conversation with Mike & Nic.You Have Got to Stand Out.The film industry is oversaturated with scripts, projects, and ideas—pitching something uniquely is essential. The Invisible Raptor team understood that a script alone wouldn't grab attention, so they built a compelling pitch package with costumes, action figures, a movie poster, and a humorous pitch video. These tangible assets made the project feel real to investors, giving it momentum before it was even funded. A script isn't always enough—filmmakers should create visual, physical, or digital materials to showcase their vision, commitment and enthusiasm.Write the Movie You Want—Then Find a Way to Make It HappenConventional wisdom tells indie filmmakers to write “contained, low-budget” scripts—but the Invisible Raptor team ignored that advice. They wrote a film with a dinosaur theme park, elaborate effects, and car chases, then figured out how to make it work through resourcefulness, networking, and persistence. Finding an affordable dinosaur amusement park seemed impossible—until a chance conversation with John Stamos led them to the perfect location. Discovery Cube Science Center in Anaheim, where Stamos' sister worked, had everything they needed—including a giant animatronic dinosaur that pooped, which fit the script perfectly.By piecing together multiple assets through favors the team gave the movie a much bigger scope than its budget should have allowed. Don't let financial limitations stifle your creativity—write the best version of your story, then problem-solve to bring it to life.Hire for EnergyFilmmaking is grueling, especially on an indie production where long hours and tight budgets push everyone to their limits. The Invisible Raptor team knew that keeping morale high was just as important as hitting their shots. A positive, energized set prevented burnout and kept the production moving forward, even when challenges arose. They understood that even one toxic crew member can derail everything. That's why they were selective in hiring—not just bringing on trusted friends, but choosing people who truly supported the vision. Negativity spreads faster than positivity, so keeping the right energy on set meant keeping the right people around.Follow Mike Capes at:IMBd:

Leave it to Vespe and JRT to turn a conversation about the 1995 Amblin family adventure story CASPER into a lewd, R-rated talk about ghost titties. In our defense, bad influence (and James Beard award-winning author) Mallory O'Meara is our guest and despite all of our best efforts when we three get together things get chaotic and talk quickly turns to horniness. Does Casper hold up? Which of the three Uncle ghosts do you most relate to? Is it possible that '90s Bill Pullman and '80s Alec Baldwin are the same person? Did Amblin think twice about making a family comedy about a dead child? We ask all these important questions and much more.

We're back to our usual programming over at Ramblin: An Amblin Podcast, and this time we're taking a precarious walk over old Nebbercracker's front lawn to cautiously enter MONSTER HOUSE, Gil Kenan's 2006 feature film debut and the second of the Robert Zemeckis-produced motion capture animations. Because we're a-scared, though, we can't do it alone, so we've enlisted the help of all-time great sister Sophie Glenn to complete our trio. Together we discuss childhood memories, re-litigate tales of old ladies in the woods and reminisce about the Disney Channel in the mid-noughties. We also find that we have way more to say about this weird, quasi-forgotten little throwback movie than anybody could have reasonably thought.

We return with an episode on the final film of 2005, and the second from Mr. Steven Spielberg himself, with his historical drama MUNICH. Charting an account of Mossad assassinations following the massacre at the 1972 Olympic games, it is one of Spielberg's most polarising and daring works to date, with the decades long Israel-Palestine conflict front and centre as it - and we - explore the moral complexities at the centre of its story that are as relevant today as it was 20 years ago.Save the Prince Charles Cinema: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-the-prince-charles-cinemaFollow the podcast on Twitter (@RamblinAmblin), Instagram (@ramblinamblinpod) and Blusky (@ramblinamblin.bsky.social).

Episode 113 - Ralph and James are watching the brand-new Skeleton Crew trailer which amps up the Amblin vibes big time!

Ramblin is back - and we're more Geisha than ever. After an extended summer break, the boys are back to continue down the Amblin road, staying in 2005 to explore Rob Marshall's period drama MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA, based on Arthur Golden's novel of the same name. To chart the journey of young Chiyo's self-discovery and efforts to become a Geisha in pre and post-WW2 Japan, we welcome back returning guest, friend and film journalist Barry Levitt. Together, we discuss the film's origins, its questionable sense of authorship and posit the question; could this film -  a follow-up for a filmmaker who just won Best Picture for a musical adaptation that revived the genre - have worked better as, well, a musical? You can follow Barry on Twitter and Letterboxd @blevitt93 , and catch his writing over at the likes of Vulture, The Daily Beast, Empire, LA Times, Rolling Stone and more. Follow the podcast on Twitter (@RamblinAmblin) and be sure to like and subscribe so you don't miss an episode! Get in touch with us either via Twitter or email rambinaboutamblin@gmail.com.

In this episode, Jay sits down with Steve Young, a multifaceted creative known for his lengthy career as a comedy writer on 'The David Letterman Show,' as well as a musician, filmmaker, and author. They delve into the technical hiccups that stall creative processes yet highlight how embracing small failures can lead to unexpected successes. Steve shares insights from his time in TV and recording, his songwriting journey, and the fascinating world of industrial musicals explored in his documentary 'Bathtubs Over Broadway.' The conversation also touches upon the significance of authenticity and creativity in producing long-lasting, impactful work amidst evolving media landscapes.   00:00 Technical Difficulties and Introductions 01:19 Steve Young's Career Highlights 02:13 Growing Up and Early Aspirations 03:01 The Evolution of Comedy Writing 10:22 Dave's Record Collection and Unusual Discoveries 12:33 The World of Industrial Musicals 16:23 Bathtubs Over Broadway: From Concept to Film 27:49 Unexpected Journeys and Voice Acting 33:07 The Challenges of Breaking into Nashville 33:43 Meeting John Shane and Merle Hazzard 34:38 Creating 'Broken Heart Insurance' 35:40 The Journey of Songwriting 36:52 Embracing the Artist Identity 38:04 Collaborations and Creative Partnerships 38:56 Navigating Self-Doubt and External Validation 41:01 The Importance of Artistic Persistence 43:16 The Role of Comedy in Music 56:09 The Influence of Personal Experiences on Art 58:20 Reflecting on Trauma and Creativity 01:01:40 The Intersection of Music and Comedy 01:08:20 Final Thoughts and Inspirations Bio:  Steve Young is a creative force of nature with a career that seamlessly blends comedy, music, and storytelling. Best known as an Emmy-nominated comedy writer for legends like David Letterman, Matt Groening, and Lorne Michaels, Steve has spent years behind the scenes crafting some of television's most memorable comedic moments. But his talents go far beyond the punchline. His quirky record collection sparked the creation of the critically acclaimed documentary "Bathtubs Over Broadway," and Amblin is now developing a feature film based on his book. Now, Steve is charting new territory as a recording artist. In 2024, he released "Broken Heart Insurance," his debut album of humorous yet heartfelt alt-country songs, recorded in Nashville and produced by Grammy-winner Alison Brown. The album showcases a different side of Steve's storytelling prowess—combining his sharp comedic sensibilities with the raw honesty of country music. With a career spanning comedy writing, film, and music, Steve is the perfect podcast guest for hosts looking for someone who can deliver captivating stories, a touch of the absurd, and unexpected insights into the creative process. Whether reflecting on his Emmy-nominated days with Letterman, discussing his leap into music, or sharing wild behind-the-scenes tales from "Bathtubs Over Broadway," Steve will surely entertain, inspire, and leave listeners wanting more. Steve Young is stepping onto the music stage while keeping his comedic roots alive. Steve is the one to book if you're looking for a guest who can take your audience on a journey from late-night TV laughs to heartfelt country ballads. https://www.thetragedyacademy.com/guests/steve-young/  

Cooper Roberts is an editor and director who just released his feature debut, All You Need is Blood—a delightfully gory tribute to Amblin-esque coming-of-age movies and zombie films. Cooper's background includes experience in advertising and music videos, and most notably, he was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2016 for co-directing the music video for Jack White's band, The Dead Weather, and their song “I Feel Love.”All You Need is Blood is a movie I really want to shout from the rooftops for more people to see. It's a love letter to childhood dreams of filmmaking and zombie movies and is full of charm and blood in equal measure. The effects are also awesome, and the movie is hilarious—I urge you to see it and tell your friends. All You Need is Blood is available to stream on the KINO app, which you can download today.In this conversation with Cooper we dig into the 6 plus year journey of bringing AYNIB to fruition, the challenges of relying on practical effects on indie movies and why casting is one of the most important elements of directing.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Cooper Roberts.80% of Directing is CastingCooper cited a famous quote, commonly attributed to Elia Kazan, that directing is 80% casting. For this reason, he paid close attention to the casting process and took his time finding the right people, which tremendously helped bring the characters—and therefore the film—to life. Cooper noted that casting actors who naturally embody the character makes directing them much smoother and more intuitive. Casting actors outside their usual genres can also yield surprising performances, as audiences respond well to seeing familiar faces in unexpected roles, as was the case with Mina Suvari playing a comedic role, which brought a fresh, unexpected dimension to the film.Never underestimate good old cold outreach.With few industry connections, Cooper turned to IMDb Pro to cold-email indie producers. Out of a hundred emails, he connected with several promising candidates and eventually found a committed team. A lot of would-be filmmakers wait to be discovered or think it's the responsibility of an agent or manager to get their movies moving forward, but it's all on you. Even if you don't have representation, just reach out to people. Cold outreach might seem daunting, but when executed well, it can be highly effective in finding partners and funding resources.Build a ‘Brain Trust' for Script FeedbackWhile writing the script for All You Need is Blood, Cooper sought to create his own ‘brain trust' of script consultants and friends for feedback during the writing process, which he modeled after Pixar. Although he didn't take all the notes, he found the input invaluable, as even a "bad" note could highlight a weak spot in the story. He noted Stephen King's advice from On Writing—if multiple people give similar feedback on a section, it's worth reevaluating. It is very easy to fall in love with your own voice and be blind to glaring issues in your script because you're just too close to it to be objective. This is why it's crucial to have trusted advisors and confidantes who can help you mold your projects. For more on Brain Trusts, I highly recommend Creativity Inc. by Ed Catmull, which outlines how Pixar was founded and how they operate to this day with a large emphasis on storytelling. Also, shoutout to script consultant Carson Reeves—Cooper and I both worked with him, and I can tell you he's great.

Chaos ensues as the wonderful, and James Beard award-winning, author Mallory O'Meara (Girly Drinks, The Lady from the Black Lagoon) comes on the show to discuss the extremely odd Amblin flick Joe Vs. The Volcano, starring Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan (three Meg Ryans, believe it or not), and directed by the famous writer John Patrick Shanley (Moonstruck). This movie is a favorite of Vespe's, but both other folks in the chat are newbies to it. We get personal, talk about what we'd do if we were diagnosed with the dreaded "brain cloud," and ask ourselves why there isn't way more sex happening in this movie.

Model, Streamer, and Kingcast favorite guest Laura Lux makes her first appearance on The Spiel and she brings a hell of a title with her. This is our very first time talking about a movie that Spielberg produced, but didn't direct. That's right, it's 1990's Arachnophobia directed by Spielberg's longtime producer Frank Marshall and starring Jeff Daniels, John Goodman, and Julian Sands... and a shit-ton of spiders. Our guest is from Australia, so she's uniquely adept at discussing big-ass spiders, which we do. The conversation also covers our childhood thoughts on the movie vs. how we perceive it today, trying to lock down what exactly the "Amblin feel" is, plus some brainstorming on what other kinds of creatures would we want to avoid swarming our house.
