In this episode of the show we are closing our March string of 80's sci-fi comedies (and the entire quarter called Fantastic Winter) with an excellent and bodacious conversation about Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Over the course of our chat you will hear us talk about how this movie stands a little bit to the side of the comedy mainstream of the late 80's, how it synthesizes many traditions and lays the groundwork for many other works to draw from. We discuss its impact on the so-called "slacker generation," how it's mostly watched for its excellent vibes, how the two protagonists are just nice all around and how, against all odds, the film's relationship with its own time travel logic is much more rigorous than meets the eye.

Veteran filmmaker Joel Soisson takes listeners on a fascinating journey through four decades of Hollywood filmmaking, from his humble beginnings as a PA in the early 1980s to becoming what one website dubbed "the direct-to-video sequel king." Unlike many of his generation who experienced a "Star Wars moment" that defined their career path, Soisson drifted organically from art school into animation and eventually motion pictures, originally dreaming of becoming a cinematographer before fate intervened. His break into writing came when producer Sandy Howard mentioned wanting to do a family film about a lost dog, prompting Soisson to pitch ideas that led to his first screenplay. What followed was an unexpected career trajectory defined largely by horror films—not because he lived and breathed the genre, but because early successes made horror projects incredibly easy to greenlight while his romantic comedy pitches faced much steeper odds in an industry that quickly typecast him based on what worked commercially.Soisson shares insider stories from some of his most iconic projects, including A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge, which wasn't just another franchise opportunity but literally a matter of survival for Bob Shaye's fledgling New Line Cinema after Wes Craven had sold away all profit participation on the original film. The story of how Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure got made reveals Hollywood dealmaking at its most wonderfully absurd: Italian producer Dino De Laurentiis, who barely understood English and had no concept of American teenage culture, greenlit the project primarily because he'd made a definitive Napoleon epic and apparently misread "exterior, the world of San Dimas" as "the war of San Dimas." Soisson also provides a sobering perspective on his extensive work with the Weinstein brothers, describing how he spent nearly two decades literally ducking into doorways to avoid Harvey Weinstein after being fired from Mother's Boys, while defending Bob Weinstein against guilt by association and noting the brothers barely spoke during his final five years there. Now focused on reimagining classics like The Magnificent Seven and Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Soisson discusses his proudest work: "My Best Worst Adventure," a family film set in Northern Thailand centered on the dangerous sport of buffalo racing that combines all his storytelling passions into one unique project.
Actor Alex Winter may be best known as the Bill half of Bill and Ted -- and he's currently treading the boards with his counterpart from the Bill & Ted movies, Keanu Reeves, in a Broadway production of Waiting for Godot. But his body of work includes a ton of other films and tv shows, with roles both in front of and behind the camera. One project he co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in is the indelibly out-there 1993 comedy Freaked, which has just gotten a 4K UHD restoration and digital & BluRay release. Jordan and Alex talk about all that and more in this week's episode, along with the creative force that showed Alex both his way into Hollywood and his way through the work: silent comedy icon Buster Keaton, and in particular his films Sherlock, Jr. and The General.Then Jordan has one quick(ish) thing to say about what The Devil Wears Prada 2 needs to do if it wants her seal of cinematic approval. Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun.Need more Feeling Seen? Keep up with the show on Instagram and Bluesky.

From the SAG-AFTRA picket lines to the New York Times lawsuit against OpenAI, the battle over AI's role in creative industries is heating up. In this second episode of The Dynamist's series on AI and copyright, we dive into the messy reality of how artists, creators, and tech companies are navigating this rapidly evolving landscape.Our guests bring unique perspectives to this complex debate: Mike Masnick, CEO of Techdirt, who's been chronicling the intersection of tech and copyright for decades; Alex Winter, the filmmaker and actor known for Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, who offers boots-on-the-ground insight from his involvement in recent Hollywood labor negotiations; and Tim Hwang, Senior Fellow at FAI, who explores how current legal battles could shape AI's future.The conversation covers everything from "shakedown" licensing deals between AI companies and media outlets to existential questions about artistic value in an AI age. While the guests acknowledge valid concerns about worker protection and fair compensation, they challenge the notion that restricting AI development through copyright law is either practical or beneficial. Drawing parallels to past technological disruptions like Napster, they explore how industries might adapt rather than resist change while still protecting creators' interests.
Happy New Year! Shoot off the fireworks, toot the noisemakers, and make yourself a nice plate of black-eyed peas, collard greens, and cornbread. Do you have any resolutions this year? A word or mantra for the year? No? Well, you're in luck. We're here to help with that by way of four movie recommendations. Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)First up is the 1986 John Hughes comedy classic, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The real righteous dudes in the audience will know why this film has a great movie mantra, but if you don't, you're in luck! We'll tell you all about it in today's show. Galaxy Quest (1999)Next is the 1999 love letter to Star Trek, Galaxy Quest. This comedy is a wonderful send-up of classic Star Trek, but is also a fascinating meta-commentary on stardom, fandom, and geek culture. By Grabthar's Hammer, you best pick this one up for another fantastic movie mantra.It's a Wonderful Life (1946)Frank Capra's 1946 film, It's a Wonderful Life, is a timeless Christmas classic, but it's got one of the best movie mantras in history. Starring Jimmy Stewart, Donna Reed, Henry Travers, and Lionel Barrymore, this drama still rings true today and is worth watching as we start the new year. Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989)We close our movie mantras this week with another comedy, 1989's Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. While yes, the tagline reads, “History's about to be rewritten by two guys who can't spell,” this is a comedy that still writes a wonderful movie mantra. Filled with cameos from comedians, rock stars, and more, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is a delightful sci-fi comedy. Strange things will be afoot at the Video Store if you don't pick this one up. From all of us here at the Video Store Podcast, we hope your new year is a great one. Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

SURPRISE!No-one knew this one was coming. Not the Patrons, and no-one on social media. This week was going to have no episode, but I really wanted to do an episode on the crazy story behind Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, and how a sequel this wacky and ambitious ever got made in the first place. A sequel that references Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal, as well as containing evil robot versions of Bill & Ted, and the characters dying and ending up in hell.It's a lot more fun than the sequel was going to be, that's for certain!Just a small episode, but a most non-heinous one. STATION!! I would love to hear your thoughts on Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey !CONTACT....
