Matt's Movie Lodgecast

Horror auteur Zach Cregger wrote and directed Barbarian back in 2022, which delighted most of us. Now he returns with his follow-up film Weapons (2025). At 2:17 AM seventeen children from the same third-grade classroom suddenly run away from their homes. That's the premise. The film features an ensemble cast including Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Cary Christopher, Toby Huss, Benedict Wong, and Amy Madigan. The film received critical acclaim and was a minor hit, grossing $264 million. We'll let you know what all the buzz is about in this episode!

Director Ridley Scott returned to outer space with the 2013 Alien prequel Prometheus, set on a distant world, and two years later, when he adapted Andy Weir's best-selling 2011 novel, Scott visited another extraterrestrial destination, albeit one relatively closer to home: Mars. On the Red Planet, Matt Damon plays an astronaut stranded by fate who must survive in the harsh environment while his NASA colleagues come up with plans to rescue him. With an ensemble cast, including Jessica Chastain, Jeff Daniels, Kristen Wiig, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sean Bean, Michael Peña, Kate Mara, Sebastian Stan, Aksel Hennie, Mackenzie Davis, Donald Glover, and Benedict Wong, the film was an interplanetary success, premiering at Number One and going on to top the box office for multiple non-consecutive weekends. Just a month after its release, the film surpassed Gladiator to become Scott's highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. With Weir's novel Project Hail Mary set to get the big screen treatment next year, we're visiting The Martian for its tenth anniversary, and we promise to bring him home when we're done!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

The man's talent allowed him to jumpstart his career and land parts in shows and movies with the best and brightest. Best recognized for his role as Sorcerer Supreme Wong in the MCU, he has played Kublai Khan in the Netflix series "Polo," the Necromancer in "What We Do in the Shadows," and has had supporting roles in two Ridley Scott features, "Prometheus" and "The Martian."

If you like a horror movie that will keep you guessing and constantly exclaiming “OMIGAWD WHAT AM I WATCHING!!!?”, then the movie “Weapons” just might be that movie for you. This movie is brought to us by the director of the surprise horror hit from 2022, “Barbarian.” That would be one Zach Cregger and we'll see if he goes two for two with this latest offering from him. “Weapons” starts off with the plot point that suddenly 17 elementary school kids, all from the same class, suddenly run out of their houses at 2:17am, and never return. Naturally suspicions are pointed at their teacher, Ms. Gandy, played by Julia Garner. One of the sources of suspicion is a father of one of the missing kids played by Josh Brolin, who's questioning of Ms. Gandy leads them both into a path of darkness. Is it worth going to the theater to find out what happens next? Check out this episode to find out. “Weapons” also stars Alden Ehrenreich, Cary Christopher, Benedict Wong, Austin Abrams, Scarlett Sher, Jason Turner and Amy Madigan. Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

For a film shrouded in secrecy and teased by a provocative and intriguing teaser trailer, Weapons is poised to draw the audience into its web of mystery. WS+ hosts, WillDaBeast and Cupcake, were NOT ready for the cinematic assault of the double-back, time-around narrative, the true reveal of the genre, the central mystery, and the craziest WTF ending (Director Zach Cregger must have watched “28 Years Later” and then said….hold my f&*king beer). Not to sound like Alfred Hitchcock, but please don't spoil the film for your friends or yourself and try to watch this one blind.

That was inspired by the arrival of Weapons, the second film from Zach Cregger, and in the reviews section our quartet lose their minds over that, and also look at Freakier Friday, My Oxford Year, and The Pick-Up. Oh, and they talk about trailers, trailer, and more trailers in the movie news section. Guest-wise, Chris pops up on Zoom to have a lovely natter with Guy Pearce, who shows off his musical prowess, reveals the one accent that eludes him, and talks about brilliant new Australian prison drama, Charles Williams' Inside (which is out on Monday, August 11, on digital platforms); [20:12 - 37:51 approx] and Ben has a lovely spoiler-free chat with Weapons star, and the MCU's secret weapon, Benedict Wong.

One of my most anticipated horror movies of the year - Zach Cregger's Weapons - has finally hit theaters worldwide. This is Zach Cregger's follow-up to Barbarian, which was the 'WTF was that' horror movie of 2022, that had a lot of huge fans. This film's script, also written by Cregger, sparked a huge bidding war back over two years ago, with New Line Cinema picking it up for nearly $40 million. There's even some alleged rumors that Jordan Peele parted ways with his management team over them losing the rights to the script for Weapons. So, needless to say, there's been a lot of buzz around this movie in Hollywood and horror circles for a few years now. I, myself, may or may not have even taken a peek at the script a while back. But, does Weapons live up to the standards that Zach Cregger set with Barbarian? Find out in this review!Weapons:Written and Directed by: Zach CreggerProduced by: Zach Cregger, Roy Lee, J.D.

"Weapons" is the latest horror film from director and writer Zach Cregger, whose feature directorial debut, "Barbarian," was a huge success when it was released in 2022. His follow-up has been greatly anticipated since then, and Warner Bros. has done an incredible job marketing the film to get audiences super interested in what the horror filmmaker has up his sleeve for his latest. Working with an all-star cast that includes Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Cary Christopher, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Benedict Wong & Amy Madigan, the film follows the case of seventeen kids from the same classroom who mysteriously disappear overnight at the exact same time, with their teacher being the main suspect. Cregger was kind enough to speak with us about his work and experience making the film, which you can listen to below.
