Podcasts about Apocalypto

Hey sorry the episode is late, we recorded like three episodes this week and Matt didn't have time to edit. Anyway while we were scrambing to figure out something to watch for weird scheduling reasons, we discovered that Apocalypto was shot on digital and boy oh boy were we lucky for that fact because this is a weird one/wild digital artifact. Topics include: Gibson's unrelenting thrist for a certain kind on screen violence, the weird push and pull between woke method and conservative values in the movie, and the uses of digital video in creating a kind of on screen murkiness as a central unifying aesthetic.  An artcicle about the movie's busted concept of Mayan history can be read here. Our friend Ryder recommends "Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest" for a pointed corrective on the kind of anthropological thinking that Gibson promotes here: we don't tak about it much because we're a film scolar and a local dummy but Ryder went to fancy history school.  Matt recommends a book that won't be out for a few months. Yeah I don't get it either. Corbin recommends a video game, available on your local video game console of choice. Thursday's episode is about INLAND EMPIRE. Watch it here.

In this episode, we dive deep into Apocalypto, discussing the film's intense themes of survival, civilization, and human brutality. We explore the characters' journeys, analyzing their struggles and the stakes they face, while breaking down the raw brutality that defines much of the movie. We also discuss the film's immersive depiction of the ancient Mayan world, powerful visuals, and how the brutal action drives the emotional core of the story.Chapters:00:00:00 The greatest way to open a movie00:07:20 The meaning behind the story00:13:02 Let's talk human sacrifice 00:17:11 The pure pride of the Mayans00:22:57 Jaguar Paws extreme resilience00:26:16 The flaws of the bad guys00:32:16 No redemption for the evil tribe00:35:19 Our plan if we had to escape00:40:45 The costume design's help with storytelling00:42:55 The hardest scene to watch & the religious beliefs of the tribe00:45:52 Jaguar Paws pure badassery00:47:24 Why are they not scared to death of Jaguar Paw00:52:22 What are the evil tribe even doing this for?00:54:01 Why Mel Gibson made this movie00:55:15 Our rating & review01:00:43 Final thoughts01:03:03 Cue the music

V tejto časti som pokecal s Petrom Szabóom, zakladateľom a majiteľom slovenskej pražiarne kávy Coffeein. Najskôr to bol iba bežný e-shop, ktorý predával obyčajnú taliansku káv no Peťo kávu vôbec nepil. Úprimne, firma sa nikam nehýbala. Totálny zlom prišiel až po pozretí filmu Apocalypto. Zo stagnujúcej malej firmy rozbehol miliónovú pražiareň a predajňu káv – a až tá zmenila slovenský trh. Pokecali sme o tom, prečo sa rozhodol venovať práve káve, ale Peťo mi hovoril aj o ďalších možnostiach, nad ktorými rozmýšľal.Peťo tiež spomínal zlomové momenty vo svojom biznise. A ako sa mu podarilo pozicionovať Coffeein na trhu? To vám sem určite nenapíšem, treba si to vypočuť. Mega zaujímavý je aj jeho tím. Hovorí im „tím švajčiarskych nožíkov" – každý člen ovláda viacero skillov, ktoré pomáhajú firme byť flexibilnejšou a efektívnejšou. Prebrali sme aj expanziu značky Coffeein do zahraničia. Zaujímavý point bol Peťov totálny zápal pre kávu, vďaka ktorému je jeho firma tam, kde teraz je.V praktickej časti dal Peťo tipy na prípravu kvalitnej kávy doma. Ako kávový guru nezabudol vypichnúť význam kávového vzdelania pre zákazníkov aj profesionálov. Prezradil na seba, prečo sa rozhodol prestať s alkoholom a ako mu to ovplyvnilo život a biznis. S tým súvisí aj Peťova osobná cesta k sebazlepšovaniu. Na konci podcastu sme prebrali jeho pohľad na zmysel života. Fakt sa oplatí vypočuť si ho. Táto časť je mega silnou motiváciou pre všetkých podnikateľov.

Juanma González analiza los estrenos de la semana que son: Amenaza en el aire, El secreto del Orfebre y Reacher. ¡Dale al play! En el programa Es la Mañana de Fin de Semana, Juanma González ha hablado sobre los estrenos más importantes de esta primera semana de marzo.Amenaza en el aire Protagonizada por Mark Wahlberg y dirigida por Mel Gibson— La pasión de Cristo (2004), Apocalypto (2006), etc.—, la acción se concentra en un único espacio, la avioneta, y cuenta la historia de un piloto (Mark Wahlberg) que transporta a una teniente general (Michelle Dockery), quien custodia a un testigo (Topher Grace) que va a testificar en un juicio contra la mafia. Sin embargo, el piloto no es quien dice ser. Aunque el argumento es poco innovador, González ha destacado que "es entretenida". González ha comentado sobre el tono de la película que "Mel Gibson la dota de un sentido del humor que es muy propio de él" a través de los personajes, pues, según González, incluso a los antagonistas "les coges cariño". Además, González ha subrayado sobre Mel Gibson que "después de tantos años, puede y sabe dirigir una película ambiciosa. Son 90 minutos muy rápidos y bastante entretenidos. Tiene pulso como director, rueda muy bien, sabe dominar la acción, el suspense y el humor". "Al final, es una serie B que solo busca entretener y divertir. Conserva esa escuela que se ha ido perdiendo en las películas de acción modernas, que son diferentes", ha concluido González.El secreto del orfebre Basada en la novela homónima de Elia Barceló, es un drama romántico que sigue la historia de dos amantes condenados a encontrarse y desencontrarse a lo largo del tiempo, luchando por estar juntos. Juan Pablo (Mario Casas) es un orfebre que viaja a su pueblo natal, donde se reencuentra con un amor que cambió su vida, Celia (interpretada por Michelle Jenner y Zoe Bonafonte). González ha explicado que es "una película con muy buena factura", ya que cuenta con atmósferas rurales idealizadas y un toque histórico. Además, ha continuado diciendo que "es una película muy bien hecha, con una buena factura visual, que no resulta televisiva. Es cursi y romántica, pero no excesivamente empalagosa". Por otro lado, en cuanto a los actores, González ha afirmado que "Mario Casas ha mejorado mucho como actor".Reacher La tercera temporada de Reacher se ha estrenado en Amazon Prime Video. Alan Ritchson da vida al exoficial de la policía militar, Jack Reacher. González ha dicho que la serie es "súper entretenida, tiene mucho humor, pero también es violenta. Hay muertos de verdad, tiene el tono de novela policíaca y película de acción ochentera y noventera".Par Impar En el último episodio del podcast Par Impar, Dani Palacios y González cuentan con la participación del director Nacho Vigalondo— Daniela Forever (2025)— para hablar sobre la película Carretera perdida (1997) de David Lynch.

Min 5: UN COMPLETO DESCONOCIDO: de talentos insoportables Bob Dylan (Timothée Chalamet) se hizo un nombre en el mundo del folk a muy temprana edad con sus versiones acústicas. Así que cuando en 1965, en el Newport Folk Festival, decidió conectar una guitarra eléctrica y usarla en su concierto, fue un duro golpe para los puristas del folk que veían el futuro del género en el joven. Desde ese momento, la vida de Dylan cambió profundamente. Activamos el Filtro Luchini para analizar una de las películas destacadas que nos faltaban para completar el sudoku de Los Oscar. Alberto Luchini y Raquel Hernández aplauden la calidad del biopic libre que ha hecho James Mangold y queda para el recuerdo la frase lapidaria de Luchini: "por fin un biopic que habla de un imbécil con talento, pero dejándolo como lo que es: un imbécil" CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3'5 estrellas Min 17: AMENAZA EN EL AIRE: Vuelve Gibson Un piloto (Mark Wahlberg) transporta en su avioneta a una teniente general (Michelle Dockery) que custodia a un testigo (Topher Grace) que va a testificar en un juicio contra la mafia. A medida que atraviesan las montañas de Alaska, las tensiones se disparan, ya que no todo el mundo a bordo es quien parece ser. Y a 3.000 metros de altura no hay escapatoria posible. Casi una década después, Mel Gibsol, responsable de títulos como La Pasión o Apocalypto, vuelve a ponerse tras la cámara para disfrutar dirigiendo una peli palomitera, de usatr y tirar, que da lo que se espera. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 2,5 estrellas Min 22. EL SECRETO DEL ORFEBRE: Casas vuelve a Casa Juan Pablo (Mario Casas) es un prestigioso orfebre que viaja desde España a Nueva York para una exposición sobre su obra. De camino pasará por su pueblo natal, un viaje que le llevará al pasado y al reencuentro con un gran amor que cambió su vida para siempre (Michelle Jener) . Adaptación de la novela homónima de Elia Barceló dirigida por Olga Osorio que, pese a su aspecto inicial de telefilme de sobremesa, ha convencido a Raquel Hernández. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 26. MI ÚNICA FAMILIA Mi única familia (en inglés Hard Truths) es una película británica de drama de 2024, escrita y dirigida por Mike Leigh. La película se centra en los desafíos de una familia en un entorno urbano complejo. Resalta la vida de una madre, interpretada por Marianne Jean-Baptiste, quien lucha por encontrar sentido en su rutina diaria, marcada por el desencanto y la incomprensión. Alberto Luchini pone el foco en el personaje protagonista al que da vida Marianne Jean-Baptiste y al que define como uno de los papeles más desagradables y antipáticos de los últimos años. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 30: QUINIELA OSCAR 2025 EDC Pese a las luces y las sombras, los aciertos y despropósitos y los grandes y vergonzantes momentos que nos han dejado los Premios de la Academia de Hollywood, el trío protagónico del Filtro Luchini se atreve con una quiniela a 10 categorías en la que la gran duda se coloca justo en la categoría final. ¿Anora? ¿Cónclave? ¿The Brutalist? Aunque los últimos sondeos apunta a un presumible triunfo de Anora, las dudas están en todo lo alto y el Trono de Luchini tras su 8 de 10 en los Goya está en juego. Min 47: ESPECIAL BSO LA MEJOR MÚSICA ORIGINAL DEL AÑO Y si ya es complicado acertar en la categoría estrella de esta 97ª edición de los Oscar, lo que suceda en la categoría de mejor música en general es aún más imprevisible. Se juegan la estatuilla The Brutalist, Cónclave, Emilia Pérez, Wicked y Robot Salvaje. Ángel Luque confiesa su amor por esta última, pero pone la equis en Cónclave, mienras que Roberto Lancha mantiene su pálpito del Filtro Luchini para elegir como favorito a Daniel Blumberg y su trabajo para The Brutalist.

Head into the depths of the jungle this week as Will's pick is the controversial historical action epic Apocalypto. Our dynamic podcasting duo discuss Mel Gibson as a director, the film's various historical inaccuracies, and the art of the chase movie. Is this just a Mayan version of Rambo? Or is there something more elusive to Gibson's vicious genre filmmaking? Listen in as we find out.

Est-ce qu'on en finira un jour avec les biopics de chanteurs ? Visiblement non. Pour preuve, l'arrivée cette semaine sur les écrans de Better Man consacré à Robbie Williams. Pour tout dire, on en bâillait d'avance, peu convaincu par l'idée de revenir sur le parcours de l'ex-membre de Take That, de son enfance à sa starisation ou ses heures de bad boy faisant la une des tabloïds. Pour autant, un détail rendait ce cas singulier : Williams y est portraitisé sous les traits d'un singe en image de synthèse. Pourquoi cette idée farfelue ? Même si Better Man est narré par Williams lui-même, la chose ne sera jamais explicitée, si ce n'est au titre d'une exubérance de plus. Si elle est minimisée par un scénario suivant à la lettre les règles de son registre (en gros un traumatisme global lié au manque de considération de Williams par son père ou le passage obligé d'un gros chagrin quand sa mamie adorée meurt), Better Man n'en reste pas moins à part dans l'univers des biopics musicaux, en n'ayant pas peur - à l'inverse des ultra-platounets Bohemian Rhapsody (Freddie Mercury) ou One Love (Bob Marley), pour ne citer qu'eux - d'une franche créativité lors de numéros musicaux dantesques. Les tubes de Williams, comme "Rock DJ" ou "She's the One" donnent lieu à des scènes délirantes, préférant les sommets graphiques des plus spectaculaires comédies musicales au déroulé usuel d'un récit connu d'avance. À l'image d'une phénoménale séquence de concert se transformant en bataille médiévale façon Seigneur des Anneaux autour de "Let Me Entertain You", Better Man, film étrange, a le mérite d'être souvent un show des plus divertissant.S'il y a une personnalité qui aurait bien de quoi nourrir un bon biopic, c'est bien Mel Gibson, star ultra-populaire dans les années 80 et 90, devenu paria suite à des déclarations très problématiques. Elles avaient fait oublier que Gibson est aussi un réalisateur particulier, alignant Braveheart, modèle de film historique épique, La Passion du Christ, biopic gore en araméen de Jésus ou Apocalypto, extraordinaire survival chez les mayas. Il n'est pas improbable qu'une mauvaise réputation acquise ait empêché Gibson de se lancer désormais dans des projets de la même ampleur. Il réapparait aux commandes de Vol à haut risque, thriller en huis clos ressuscitant, jusque dans son titre, le cinéma d'action américain des années 90. Soit le décor quasi unique d'un avion de tourisme embarquant une agent du FBI, un témoin à protéger et un tueur à gages chargé de les éliminer. Un exercice de style inattendu pour un réalisateur qui privilégiait jusque-là les grands espaces et l'emphase pour s'enfermer dans la carlingue étroite d'un coucou. De quoi privilégier un trio d'acteurs – surtout Mark Wahlberg, inattendu en tueur aussi dégénéré que survolté, s'en donnant à cœur joie. Vol à haut risque tenant de la voltige économique en étant totalement déconnecté du marché actuel, plus proche de l'altitude du haut du panier des séries B qui sortent directement en vidéo ou sur les plateformes de VOD que de celles des blockbusters en pilote automatique. Ce qui en fait pour autant une curiosité marrante, agréable trou d'air dans la routine des sorties, façon plaisir régressif devant une séance de cinoche à l'ancienne, nerveux et efficace. Et dans des fauteuils plus confortables que celle des soirées vidéo-club d'antan d'où ce sympathique thriller semble exhuméBetter Man / Vol à haut risque. En salles le 22 janvier.

DANIEL AND APOCALYPSE NOW AND NOT YET  The word apocalypse (Apocalypto or revelation) means ‘the unveiling of things that have been hidden or covered up'. God hides things from us until he is ready to reveal them to us, and people cover things up until God is ready to expose them. Both these meaning of apocalypse are occurring in our world at the moment - like never before. The idea of apocalypse occurs in two stages – first there is a gradual unveiling of many things being in the process of change at the same time without any clear indication of what they are going to change into – the winds of change – Now and not yet. The second and final change stage is a suddenness of something new happening that stops us in our tracks as the manifestation of a momentous change finally occurs. It was like that on the day of Pentecost. Jesus told 120 people to wait in an upper room for the ‘promise of the Father' and they did. Jesus had told them that they would be ‘baptised with the Holy Spirit not many days from now'. Jesus had been unveiling to them in his teachings the wonder of things to come but they did not fully understand what he meant. They knew something was going to happen but they did not know when, or what it was going to look like. Then the day of Pentecost arrived And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:2). The entire world was changed that day and the rest is history. I believe that we are currently living in the apocalyptic days where there are signs of great change occurring in all nations of the earth, but we do not know how many years it will be before God accomplishes his final purposes for the world and his Church and for each individual soul, and we don't know what it will look like. But Daniel prophesied that there would be a coalition of ten nations or world rulers that will seek to rule the entire world in the end days. The 120 in the upper room had to wait ten days for the apocalyptic outpouring of the Holy Spirit, but they were not told it would be ten days – Pentecost - and the number ten speaks of times of faith and patience through times of trial and testing (Deuteronomy 8:2). And we are in times of trial and testing and patience on such a global scale like never before.  I'm revisiting last week's talk about Daniel's apocalyptic prophecy in Daniel in chapter 2 about King Nebuchadnezzar having a dream where he saw a vision of a great statue that had a head of gold and shoulders and arms of silver and an abdomen and thighs of brass and legs of iron and feet and toes of iron and clay. And a stone was supernaturally cut out from a mountain, and it struck the image on its feet of iron and clay and broke them in pieces. Daniel said to the king ‘There is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will come to pass in the latter days – the end times. (Daniel 2:28) This vision depicts the nature of the world kingdoms from Babylon down to the present day and history shows us the dates when these world kingdoms actually ruled. The Scripture goes on to say ‘And in the days of those rulers the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed…It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever'…The dream is certain, and its interpretation sure.” The actual feet of iron and clay represents a multitude of global rulers that are already in existence and have been for some years with we don't know how many years to go before the identity of the ten toes is fully revealed (Apocalypto). I believe that the overall ‘feet nations' – not the toes - are current global nations made up of both harsh totalitarian governments and fragile democracies that are currently attempting to mix together through trade and political alliances but who cannot form a lasting bond. And in the meantime apocalyptic events are cascading upon the world at an alarming rate. Daniel's prophecy was pointing to what would happen in the ‘latter days' and he placed those ‘latter days' events in the time frame of being ‘in the now and not yet days of those rulers.' That means in the apocalyptic days of the global nations out from which would one day emerge those ten rulers who attempt to rule the earth.  The great stone represents Jesus Christ over his Kingdom of faithful people. That Kingdom smites the image on the feet and ten toes of a ten-nation world empire destined to yet emerge at the end of the age, whenever that will be – now and not yet. The feet are present now but the toes have yet to emerge on the world stage and be identified. So I believe we are in the ‘days' of preparation when God will set up his end time Kingdom in a new measure of spiritual power and authority to be revealed in greater measure in God's people than ever before in the earth. Indeed, there is a wind of the Spirit blowing in the Church exposing much darkness in the Church and at the same time revealing more light and truth to the Church for those seeking God and his Kingdom. The Now and Not yet theme is mentioned four times book of Revelation where it refers to Jesus as the one who is and was and is to come.  God's people will be God's living stones supernaturally cut out of a mountain and built together as God's dwelling place in the earth – God's House, the Church. The prophet Haggai said  ‘I will shake all nations… and I will fill my house (Church)with glory…The glory of this latter house (Church) shall be greater than the former, says the LORD (Haggai 2:6-9). In the days of Haggai that Scripture was prophetic not only for Israel and for the Church – but for each of us individually as his House, as temples of the Holy Spirit. The 'setting up' of this Kingdom is a work in process – now and not yet. The apocalyptic culmination of political darkness and evil in the earth will be the ten toed nations. The apocalyptic culmination of Spiritual light in the earth will be the Bride of Christ. These are both works in progress – now and not yet. One is a work of corruption and will be the work of man and one is the work of purification and will be the work of God's grace. Ephesians 5:15, because we live in times of much corruption see that you walk responsibly and diligently and wisely, redeeming the time thoughtfully, seeking to understand what the will of the Lord is. (NKJ) On a personal level in this apocalyptic time of change this will mean thoughtfully assessing our way of seeing things and doing things and inviting God into the reordering and redeeming of what we might think of as the lost or wasted times of our past. We can now become aware of his appointed times of new beginnings for us with a new understanding of his will for an ‘all things new' future for our lives. This becomes a new way of living in the grace of God amidst the outer turmoil and darkness and disorder of the world. Paul must have asked himself at times ‘Why am I in prison, why did I get shipwrecked, beaten up, ignored and insulted? The answer for Paul was - that is where Jesus was. And we can be where Jesus is at any time by his grace, with all things working together for his design and purpose to come to pass in our lives.  The world cannot take us to where only God destined us to be. God moves forward with his overall plan for the world, and he moves forward with his designated plan for our lives. There is an energy which directs us, moves us and carries us, even though we cannot see where it is taking us. That energy is the hidden power of the wind of the Spirit which blows where it wills, and God's apocalyptic changes happen gradually and then suddenly, perhaps after times of enduring patiently through times of difficulty.  We cannot see our final destination but with this kind of faith we see through the present disorder of this world system, and we can enter into the eternal order of God's Kingdom. God's grace lifts us across the bridge from the world of fear and stress into his world of stillness and rest where we can learn to trust that we are being carried by the power of his grace to becoming who we should be and doing what we should be doing.  The true Church is out there somewhere – Now and not yet. The Bride of Christ is in there somewhere – Now and not yet. The true self God designed for you to be is within you somewhere – Now and not yet.

We offer profound reflections on "Hacksaw Ridge," the harrowing tale of Desmond Doss, whose conviction in the face of conflict left an indelible mark on history. Venture with us into the soul-stirring journey of a conscientious objector who became a World War II hero without firing a bullet. We uncover the intricate dance of morality and faith that guided Doss's life, giving listeners a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the crafting of a film that challenges the very notions of courage and conviction.This episode is charged with the emotional power of storytelling as we analyze the pivotal moments of "Hacksaw Ridge," unraveling the layers of Desmond Doss's character against the backdrop of war and personal belief. We regale you with anecdotes from our personal lives, historical tidbits, and parallels to recent global events, tying the past and present in a thought-provoking conversation. The court-martial scene serves as a cornerstone for our discussion, showcasing the clash between institutional authority and individual conscience, a theme that reverberates through Gibson's directorial oeuvre and our current societal challenges.Rounding off our exploration, we delve into the broader cultural impact of Gibson's filmography, where films like "Apocalypto" stir a potent mix of controversy and insight.  This episode is not just a review of a film but an examination of the moral compass that guides us through life's tumultuous seas. Join us for an enriching dialogue that celebrates the power of cinema to inspire, challenge, and transform.Support the show********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV: https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonOdysee: https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylon

The Spin Chagrin, a concept that finds Frank having to watch a movie he's never seen before based on the random spin of a wheel filled with off-the-wall genres, continues into its third year; the twist this year is that all the categories are quotables from Frank himself. In this episode, Frank's category was "Aztec Ally.” For this category, he watched and reviewed three different movies: the Ian Ziering SyFy movie Aztec Rex, Mel Gibson's Apocalypto, and the ‘70s horror slasher Mardi Gras Massacre featuring an Aztec enthusiast as the killer.

"Apocalypto" is a historical action-adventure film directed by Mel Gibson and released in 2006. The movie is set in the pre-Columbian era, specifically in the declining Mayan civilization. The story revolves around a young hunter named Jaguar Paw, played by Rudy Youngblood, who lives with his tribe in the Mesoamerican jungle.The film begins with peaceful scenes of the tribe's daily life but takes a dark turn when they are attacked by a group of raiders from a more advanced and aggressive Mayan city. The raiders capture many members of the tribe, including Jaguar Paw, and take them to the city, where they face the threat of being sacrificed for religious rituals.The central plot follows Jaguar Paw's attempt to escape captivity and return to his pregnant wife and young son. As he navigates the dangerous and unforgiving jungle and encounters various obstacles, the film explores themes of survival, sacrifice, and the clash between civilizations."Apocalypto" is known for its intense and visceral action sequences, as well as its depiction of the brutality and complexity of the Mayan civilization during its decline. The film received praise for its cinematography, direction, and the performances of the cast, although it also faced criticism for its graphic violence. Mel Gibson co-wrote the screenplay with Farhad Safinia.

The 2006 Mel Gibson movie, Apocalypto, takes us into a decadent Maya civilization in the Yucatan on the eve of the Spanish Conquest of Mexico. It could be a commentary on ancient Rome or the present-day US, but, because it is a new world for both the viewer and the forest-dwelling protagonists, we get to see it through ‘new eyes' and a ‘beginner's mind.' It's a great movie, a cinematic masterpiece. It also allows us to ask how Mel Gibson, a devout Catholic and such a human sinner—as we all are, though when he does something terrible it's in the news—should proclaim the Gospel after he has fallen from his moral pedestal a few times. We also ask about how the Church should proceed given her many painful scandals. It was a great discussion on the Missio Dei podcast on YouTube and I'm delighted to share it here.

He may be in decline but he still knows a good movie when he sees it so Ollie returns to argue with Sarah on the merits or lack thereof in the movie Apocalypto(2006). Is it hi-octane action? Yes! Does it have a paper thin plot? Absolutely! Does the politics it represents leave a bad taste in your mouth? Possibly! Sit back and enjoy as two friends discuss a movie one loves and the other doesn't while both agreeing that the director is a POS.

Battle is bloody. There's no arguing that. But what of war and battle in pop culture? There's a whole spectrum of goriness, from the bloodless G.I. Joe cartoon from the 80's to the brutal mayhem of Apocalypto. Cam and Izzy are here to talk about their favorite blood and guts pop culture (horror excluded) moments of all time. You might even find out that's there's something called "too gory."A fun game of "What's My Body Count?" rounds out the episode with Cam doing his best to remember exactly how many people have died in every film he's ever seen.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5956105/advertisement

Not since 1985 when the Apple board got rid of Steve Jobs has there been such an upheaval in the tech sector as there was last Friday when Sam Altman, the 38 year old CEO of Open AI (the not-for-profit that runs CHATGPT), was fired . It was a board coup that also saw the company's president and three senior researchers resign. Investors were ropeable, especially the CEO of Microsoft who tried to mediate his return to the company. When that failed, Microsoft made Altman an offer he couldn't refuse. Is this best tech soap opera to date?

Comedian Tim Gray returns to talk shingles, Apocalypto, and Aqua.

Mel Gibson's Apocalypto is one of those works of art whose reputation has suffered from its circumstances. Its release in late 2006, two years after The Passion and six month after Gibson's infamous DUI, more or less coincided with the director's blacklisting from Hollywood. Thus Apocalypto tends to be overlooked by critics, despite having been hailed as a masterpiece by the likes of Scorsese, Tarantino, Edgar Wright, and Spike Lee. Apocalypto has also been attacked for its portrayal of "first peoples". Set in Mesoamerica immediately before first contact with the Spanish, it features a protagonist from a small forest tribe who is captured by Mayans for the purpose of human sacrifice (depicted as the mass-scale brutality it was) and must try to escape back to his family.  Gibson's depiction of Mesoamerican peoples is sensitive and sympathetic but not PC. Rather than sneering at how terrible a pre-Columbian civilization could be, in portraying the Mayans Gibson wanted to make us reflect on the decadence of the modern West and in particular the American Empire. The film is about a culture of death not unlike our own. Filmed, like The Passion, in a language most people have never heard, Apocalypto is a stunningly ambitious recreation of a lost civilization, but also a thoroughly entertaining chase movie. Gibson is known for his singular approach to cinematic violence, and Apocalypto gives ample opportunity to discuss the specific artistic choices that are overlooked when we wave off all movie "blood and guts" as the same.
