Podcasts about best movie year ever

A Christmas double feature in search of a DIE HARD or LOVE ACTUALLY! What is this madness? A Christmas special on a podcast called TRILOGY IN THEORY... missing the third part of the trilogy? That's where we look at the Netflix original LOVE HARD which presents two dating app aficionados finding each other across the country with that annual holiday debate: is DIE HARD a Christmas movie? So we pair that Netflix "content" with a proper film... that proper film being John Frankenheimer's REINDEER GAMES. This may not be the best example of the superior nature of movies designed for theatrical release but it does allow us to pontificate on the conundrum that is Xmas at the Movies and hopefully find a third film to make a TRILOGY IN THEORY!

The Third Part in Steven Soderbergh's Whistleblowers Trilogy We finish up this month's trilogy and our TWO HUNDREDTH EPISODE with Matt Damon at peak schlub as THE INFORMANT! The exclamation point is included in the title of the film; not a measure of our excitement. For one host despises Matt Damon and the other one is still trying to understand the motivations of a man making six figures and married to Melanie Lynskey to blow it all up! Now that exclamation point was intended as we will spend the next two hundred episodes of TRILOGY IN THEORY trying to understand such a man. Enjoy!

If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! If a filmmaker ever wants to make people uncomfortable just complete your passion project which is seen as dangerous and very progressive... and then wait a quarter century (or less) and one can upset an entirely new demographic of people who see your movie as dangerous and backwards! It's these murky waters that two straight men enter and attempt to discuss BOYS DON'T CRY as a flick that for obvious reasons is just a bad time. Thankfully this discussion is behind a paywall and more importantly... no one listens to us anyway! Enjoy and catchup on last year's Movie Book Club from Quentin Tarantino's CINEMA SPECULATION!

The Second Part in Steven Soderbergh's Whistleblowers Trilogy A little Oscar talk. A little Marvel Cinematic Universe talk.

If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! While we can all agree that HEAT is Michael Mann's masterpiece and to a somewhat lesser degree that MANHUNTER is the Hannibal Lector cinematic masterpiece... what about THE INSIDER?

The Third Part in our Coup d'etat Cinema Trilogy The failure of Warner Bros. Project Popcorn to overthrow cinema is discussed in regards to James Gunn's streaming loss leader THE SUICIDE SQUAD... and it's delightful! Yes, it's noble failure lead to even more television with spinoffs but you don't see Matt Reeves THE BATMAN catching flak for that so instead we revel in the charms of a true comic book movie where our heroes ponder if they are being sent off to fight something that is slang for butthole.

The First Part in our Coup d'etat Cinema Trilogy We put our love of procedurals to the test with the walkabout pace of an assassin in France in THE DAY OF THE JACKAL.

The Third Part in our Identity Crisis Cinema Trilogy We discuss our agreed upon favorite film of 2023 in Celine Song's PAST LIVES with very little in the way of judgement. Possibly because that is befitting of the tone of the film but also because we can't help but gush about this modern classic that sits beside the likes of ALL THE HEAVEN ALLOWS and Edward Norton's KEEPING THE FAITH!

Instead of deciding to partake in BEING JOHN MALKOVICH we play a little hot or not with the... fairly unattractive debut feature film from Spike Jonze in what would be the beginning of a series of lighthearted fare from the writer Charlie Kaufman.

The First Part in our Identity Crisis Cinema Trilogy If ever we have an identity crisis we can only hope to handle it with as much charm as Audrey Hepburn or Cary Grant. Instead you get us.

If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! In which the comparisons to AMERICAN PIE never end but at least it wasn't forced into a trilogy on Taye Diggs ALMOST ruining a wedding. That may have been us playing the part of Mr. Diggs by ruining two great slice-of-life comedies from the Best Movie Year Ever of 1999 in THE WOOD and THE BEST MAN. In the former we get a classic hang movie as three young men move onto adulthood and in the latter it's an ensemble of middle-aged friends looking for one last chance to reflect on their youth (for better but mostly worst) and we couldn't be more pleased to dive into that particular universe. Though the fact that ended on Peacock twenty-five years later isn't exactly what we had in mind for The Best Man Cinematic Universe. Enjoy!

A special bonus episode for the latest funny book on film! In true DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE fashion are we pandering by featuring this latest MCU joint without a proper trilogy in theory? Or are we doing everyone a favor by NOT trying to force two other innocent bystander films in to a discussion on a silly superhero played by a very silly Ryan Reynolds in a "plot" that spends two hours making excuses for why Hugh Jackman is back as Wolverine and why Deadpool still exists at all? Look... this is all silly. Including this very podcast. Turn your brain off and enjoy and we will resume proper film with our next episode on the classic CHARADE!

The Third Part in our Mask of the Doctor Trilogy We finish our trilogy on masks of doctors (although that comes into question by the end of the episode) by starting with comparing our podcast to FRIENDS or SEINFELD and every other podcast is the 9:30 sitcom that everyone hate watched until ER started. In some regard THE DARK KNIGHT RISES is seen as maybe the misfire of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy... although that is not backed up financially or critically. It's just a vibe!

This week on End Credits, we're going back to the turn of the millennium, or do we mean the Willennium? For those of you who remember the turn of the century have we got a treat for you! Remember 1999? A lot of great movies came out that year, and some people think that it might be the one of the best for the breadth and variety of projects, so this week. we'll draft them! This Wednesday, July 17, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson, Tim Phillips, Candice Lepage and Peter Salmon will discuss: The 1999 Movie Draft. Now halfway to episode #400, we pause to hold a very special movie draft. Exactly 25 years ago, we were halfway through what's come to be known in some quarters as the "Best Movie Year Ever". This week, the whole gang is here to draft the great films of that year, from a cyberspace dystopia to a Shakespeare comedy in high school to the mockumentary about a scary witch in the forests of Maryland. This week, we're going to party like it's... you-know-what. Cue the Prince! End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

The Third Part in our Sex Pact Trilogy The only climax one could expect from our trilogy on a sex pact among friends would have to involve two former sitcom stars in Alison Brie and Jason Sudeikis who are... SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE. But mainly we want them to sleep with each other (if not us, of course) in this lovely romcom from Leslye Headland. One host falls for the first time while the other perhaps has aged into a world where he can accept a platonic relationship with Ms. Brie and/or Mr. Sudeikis. But mainly Alison Brie. And then Amanda Peet enters the picture! Catchup on last year's Movie Book Club from Quentin Tarantino's CINEMA SPECULATION!

And while spending America's birthday with Jenna Elfman and Richard Jenkins doesn't sound particularly sexy (though delightful!) that's where the sex positivity of Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake come on.

The First Part in our Sex Pact Trilogy For our latest trilogy we make a sex pact. Not with each other but with three films on films where friends take "the next step" together. Unfortunately for our first entry in AMERICAN PIE it's the likes of Jason Biggs and Chris Klein awkwardly making these moves on the likes of the Alyson Hannigan and Mean Suvari. Thankfully all of them mostly come out unscathed as we remark on the strange sweetness of this perverted movie that was THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY for the blink-182 crowd. What we are saying is that in our 40s we are no better now than we were then. Especially when it comes to our fandom of Natasha Lyonne!

The Third Part in our Driving with Death Trilogy Although David Lynch's THE STRAIGHT STORY didn't make the cut for our Book Club (shame on you Best Movie Year Ever!) but it's better than END OF DAYS (another strange omission from the book on 1999 in film) and so it gets to be included in a proper trilogy.

The Second Part in our Driving with Death Trilogy They don't make them like they used to. Because every movie coming out now Is. Simply. Not. SPEED. From the auteur Jan de Bone we were introduced to the next great Hollywood star in Sandra Bullock (apologies to DEMOLITION MAN) and Keanu was anointed as The Next Great Action Star (though THE MATRIX and JOHN WICK would still be some years away.) And then there's Jeff Daniels as the boozing, cynical Obi-Wan Kenobi who knows everything about bombs and almost nothing about sober love-making.

Was 1999 truly the greatest year in cinema? We dive headfirst into the nostalgia (and maybe some controversy) to discuss our FAVORITE films from this legendary year. From genre-bending blockbusters like "The Matrix" to cult classics like "Fight Club," and hidden gems like "The Iron Giant," this episode is packed with laughs, debates, and deep dives into why 1999 might just be unbeatable. **** Endslate is an ANIMA podcast edited by Rene Perez and produced by Mel Lozano.

The First Part in our Liam Neeson is a Short-Term Mentor Trilogy How did one podcaster spend his May the Fourth? By running out on his sleeping family for a late night twenty-fifth anniversary screening of the George Lucas opus STAR WARS: EPISODE 1 - THE PHANTOM MENACE. He then spent a week questioning his commitment to cinema and this podcast and pondering this question: if this podcast sticks around for two decades will people come around to our way of thinking or do we need to be bought out by Disney first to gain that wistful afterglow?

The Third Part in our Pressure of the Pedestal Trilogy In which Sofia Coppola's nepo baby status is questioned by one host and the other can't get over Josh Hartnett's hair.

The Second Part in our Pressure of the Pedestal Trilogy We Pick Flick for the second part in this month's trilogy with Reese Witherspoon in a star-making performance (sorry, she was merely the fuddy-duddy in CRUEL INTENTIONS) in Alexander Payne's ELECTION. Competing with the likes of a young Chris Klein at the height of his himbo powers we discuss how this look at high school politics ages somewhat gracefully into middle age.

The Third Part in our Dealing with the Devil in 1997 Trilogy One host talks about what a GREAT ASS Connie Neilsen has and how Keanu Reeves has his head... ALL THE WAY UP IT. Or something to that effect. The other host presents a childhood memory of walking in on his parents watching THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE and we wrap up our dealings with the underworld by debating the merits of bringing about the antichrist or being forced to watch SPAWN again.

For one host this a pleasant first time watch of unpleasantness while the other host remembers fondly the teenage musing in a Hot Topic on the sick cruelty that Morpheus is exposed to while simply doing his job. Also the audio commentary informed us that the producers found Joely Richardson very hot. So maybe this podcast isn't such a waste of your EVENT HORIZON audio time after all. Enjoy!

The First Part in our Dealing with the Devil in 1997 Trilogy So it's come to this. We (and perhaps you, dear listener) needed a reprieve from the year of cinema in 1999 and we find ourselves a mere two years prior... watching and discussing SPAWN? Blame the need for superhero silliness after the serious business of VARSITY BLUES for our current plight of watching lifeless action, in your face "politically incorrect" humor from John Leguizamo as a cross between Salacious Crumb and Jabba the Hutt and Martin Sheen right before the life jacket that was to be playing President Bartlett.

The Third Part in our Taming of the 1999 Shrew Trilogy One host finds Julia Stiles AND Heath Ledger insufferable while the other is more bothered by the supposed nice guy act of Joseph-Gordon Levitt. Which is to say that maybe middle aged men should not sit in judgement of the charms of teen romcom hits from their youth. They do however really dislike labeling 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU a "cult classic." On that we and the fanbase for this film can agree. And also Allison Janney. Always Allison Janney. Especially playing an erotica writing guidance counselor named Ms. Perky. Movies are the best. Enjoy!

The Second Part in our Taming of the 1999 Shrew Trilogy One man faces down forty by watching CRUEL INTENTIONS for the first time. Then he moved on to the audio commentary track (which required finding a used DVD) AND THEN this man moved on to CRUEL INTENTIONS 2. Which was just a series of unaired television episodes continuing this porny universe starring a young Amy Adams. Still not satisfied he moves to a actual porn with a terribly titled adult film parody of this Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon classic. Research was done.

The Second Part in our Follow the Non-Linear 90s Trilogy Back in 1999 one host was trying to convince his buddies to go see John August and Doug Liman's GO instead of seeing THE MATRIX for a third time while the other lesser host was somehow privy to stars of the adult entertainment world... but had no respect for the work of Canadian great Sarah Polley. Thus begins yet another disagreement in the joys of youth.

The First Part in our Follow the Non-Linear 90s Trilogy Christopher Nolan is like a bad penny on this podcast which is to say that he's good for the numbers (or at least he used to be before we constantly negged him) but also manages to crash the first episode of a year where we will primarily focus on the film of 1999... with a film from 1998. Such is his immense talent! For his debut feature film FOLLOWING we try to create some distance from what would follow in his filmography but end up extolling the virtues of his Batman flicks while also relaying a horrible date night experience with DUNKIRK.

The 82nd Astronaut sits down with former senior writer at Wired magazine and author of three books Brian Raftery, to talk about his fantastic book "Best. Movie. Year. Ever.: How 1999 Blew Up the Big Screen." Listen in on what got Brian into writing about films, what his top 3 favorite movies of this year were and how Deep Blue Sea is an underrated gem that deserves a, for the lack of a better phrase, deeper look.

Was 1999 the best movie year ever? We think it might be, and in this podcast we'll be exploring the movies that made that year so memorable. Before we start, we invited journalist and author Brian Raftery, who quite literally wrote the book on the movies of 1999 — Best. Movie. Year. Ever.: How 1999 Blew Up the Big Screen — to share his thoughts on why it was such an important year for movies and for our culture.

As goes Bond, so goes the rest of the movie year. With Bond 25 "No Time To Die" recently moving to October - along with several other high-profile spring '21 releases - the new movie year is getting off to a disappointing start. But with lots of holdovers from 2020 - "Dune"! "Maverick"! "Ghostbusters"! - and some very promising new titles on the horizon, it is, at the very least, an exciting year to contemplate.

If I asked you to name some of your favorite movies from the 1990s, odds are several of those were made in 1999. That year was bombarded with films like The Sixth Sense, Being John Malkovich, American Pie, and The Blair Witch Project that have ingrained themselves in our culture. My guest today is Brian Raftery, who has had a long career of writing on culture and entertainment for such publications as Wired, Rolling Stone, and Entertainment Weekly.

This week we're joined by Brian Raftery, film writer and author of the book Best. Movie. Year. Ever., which examines the films of 1999. At the time, Brian was just getting started as a writer for Entertainment Weekly, so he was on the front lines of a seminal year for film in a year where everything felt a little apocalyptic (ah, the quaintness of Y2K). What he wasn't doing was watching a lot of TV, so for this week's blind spot we'll be Brian's guides as he sits down with the The X-Files for the first time. In this episode we discuss Brian's book and how we're still having the same conversations they were 20 years later, then we dive into four of our favorite "Monster of the Week" episodes of The X-Files: Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose, Home, Bad Blood, and Drive.

Brian Raftery writes for GQ, Wired and Rolling Stone, among others. He just wrote a really interesting book. He called it "Best Movie Year Ever" and in the book's 300 pages, Brian makes the case that one of the most interesting and memorable years in cinema history... was 1999. The year that saw the release of Office Space. Rushmore. Three Kings. Being John Malkovich... you get the point. It's a great read, tons of interviews and insight into a year that not just saw a bunch of classic movies but changed the way studios marketed them. Listen to this one for a fascinating conversation about film!
