Podcast appearances and mentions of Brett Ratner

This golden week: - Has established for a fact that delaying the editing of a podcast is not the last little superstitious push the Olympians needed to get them across the golden goal-line.  - Sure, Claire Thompson may be known as Human ChatGPT to her teammates, but your stalwart co-Thompsons are unintimidated, since they've long been known as the Human Microfiche and the Human Disc One of Microsoft Encarta, respectively.  - How Did We Not Know that the meteorite that struck Bruderheim, Alberta, Brett Ratner (unfortunately as yet unstruck by any meteorites), and the reflection of local demographies in PWHL team theme nights would all be essential ingredients in this witch's brew of an episode. 

From Super Bowl LX, Turning Point USA's halftime show, and 2026's Grammy Awards to new Epstein Files news and the latest with ICE, Keith breaks it all down. He disects the opening of multiple-rape-accused-Brett Ratner's movie Melania: A New Film, Boxer Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller's toupee, and the passing of a great Keith and The Girl listener.

Subscribe to Investing In Bizarro World: @bizarroworld Editor's Note: We will have a new gold/antimony private placement open this week in Private Placement Intel. It's a tiny company with a C$7 million market cap that has secured some very prospective projects in Victoria, Australia. We have had great success with gold/antimony in previous deals, including with Southern Cross Gold in Victoria, which now sports a C$2.6 billion market cap. We also did very well with Perpetua Resources (formerly Midas Gold), which is now being built and has a US$3.5 billion market cap. No guarantees this new deal gets that big, but there's a lot of room between C$7 million and a few billion, and it has similar hallmarks. The deal will be open tomorrow. We have very little space left at Private Placement Intel. Click here to join: https://bit.ly/4ary0i7Macro Musings - Gold, silver, and copper are still in a bull market — but the path is going to be violent. We talked about how consolidations that used to take weeks now take days, sometimes hours, and Thursday's whipsaw was the perfect example: silver went from $90 to $65 in a single session. This is what a market looks like when paper positioning, leverage, and volatility are elevated. Nick walked through why S&P volatility has been manageable even with tech-heavy selling, while precious metals volatility has been the real story. The gold volatility gauge (GVZ) has been high enough to produce outsized daily ranges, and that's exactly what we're living through. On the macro backdrop, the message stayed consistent: inflation is still cooling, growth is still there, and the rate picture isn't signaling a hawkish regime. The dollar remains weak overall, and the two-year yield continues to suggest the Federal Reserve isn't gearing up to hike — which is fuel for the metals complex as the year progresses.Market Takes - The takeaway this week was simple: don't confuse volatility with failure. We said it plainly — gold can pull back and still be bullish, silver can retrace hard and still be fine, and copper can dip without breaking the bigger trend. If you'd been told a year ago we'd be talking about $4,800 gold and $74 silver as “stressful,” you would've laughed — and that perspective matters. We also emphasized how distorted tape action gets when volatility spikes. Strong earnings and good drill results can still sell off in the moment, not because fundamentals suddenly changed, but because liquidity, positioning, and risk management take over. That's why we kept repeating the discipline: know what you own, know why you own it, and use pullbacks to build positions — not to panic-sell them. We also hit uranium: the market's fixation on spot misses the bigger driver, which is contracting. Utilities are negotiating long-term pounds in a wide range, and the bigger question is what happens when availability tightens further and the ceiling moves higher. We closed this section with a quick Crypto Cycle note: Chris flagged a crypto winter setup, Bitcoin fell below $70,000 this week, and his view is a cyclical bear market that could bottom later this year around $58,000 or lower depending on the macro. The point wasn't doom — it was process: sometimes doing nothing is the right move, and patience can be an asset class.Bizarro Banter - We went where the headlines won't. The Epstein scandal and the government's handling of the files is beyond grotesque, and we said it plainly: redacting predators while exposing victims is cruelty — and the absence of meaningful arrests is the scandal layered on top of the scandal. The story is being managed instead of resolved: Speaker Mike Johnson dismissing it as “partying,” the broader donor-protection reality, and the global nature of the network. We talked about how the same elite ecosystem that preaches rules for everyone else operates through backchannels, favors, and protection — and how partisan tribalism keeps people from uniting around the obvious moral line: anybody involved in trafficking and abuse should be pursued and prosecuted, period. Brett Ratner, director of the “Melania” move, is in the files. Kathy Ruemmler, who was White House Counsel to Obama, is in the files. Brad Karp, chairman of Trump-preferred law firm Paul Weiss, is in the file. Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Giants owner Steve Tisch are in the files. British royalty are in the files. The Rothschilds are in the files. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak is in the files. It's both sides. It's the global elite. And it's rotten.0:00 Introduction1:46 Macro Musings: Gold Volatility Explained. Metals Bull Intact. Dollar Weakness Persists. Buy-the-Dip Discipline.9:15 Market Takes: Tether Gold Buying.

Newt talks with Marc Beckman, producer of the new documentary film “Melania” and Melania Trump’s senior advisor and agent for more than 25 years. The film, directed by Brett Ratner, offers an intimate look into the life of Melania Trump, focusing on her role as First Lady and her relationship with President Trump. The film follows her for 20 days leading up to the inauguration on January 20, 2025, and has broken box office records in its first week in theaters. “Melania” aims to provide a groundbreaking visual and sonic experience, diverging from traditional documentary film formats. It features a first-class production team, including two Oscar-winning cinematographers, and a diverse soundtrack with artists like The Rolling Stones and Elvis. The film captures significant moments, such as Mrs. Trump reflecting on her immigrant experience during the inauguration, and her involvement in initiatives like the “Take It Down Act” and foster care reform. Mrs. Trump’s commitment to her family and work ethic is emphasized, with insights into her dedication to her role as First Lady and her involvement in various philanthropic efforts. The film’s success has led to plans for a docuseries to further explore her life, showcasing her as a figure who transcends the traditional role of First Lady.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 55: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: So would you like to collapse the Trump Regime? Today? Peacefully? Legally? You - the White House press corps. It only takes one of you. You go into the next Oval Office Scrum, and you ask him politely for his explanation of something released by his administration, by Pam Bondi’s office, on the government website, and you read – quoting this FBI 302 interview file: “Maxwell presented (her) to Trump…by the things Maxwell said, it was clear that (she) was available…”And don’t stop reading and don’t make eye contact. THEN from the sworn affidavit, reed, quote: “I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling the plaintiff that she couldn’t ever say anything, if she didn’t want to disappear like the 12-year old female (redacted) and that he was capable of having her whole family killed…” Quote: “the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein... under penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger” unquote, what SIR is your explanation SIR about when you threatened this girl’s life, sir. Just keep asking. Don't make eye contact, don't stop, don't stop talking when he starts talking. Just reel off those quotes. And the one about becoming fertilizer. And the "Calendar Girls" story (as nonsensical as that probably is). And all the others. Because we don't always see the escape hatch when it appears before us, and it just appeared. Because the Epstein Files are part of an official Department of Justice Document Dump. Their contents are Pam Bondi's problem, not you or your lawyer's. And if you don't bear down and do this job as it was designed by the Founding Fathers, you will sooner or later face one of these outcomes: you'll be arrested, you'll be replaced by some automaton Bari Weiss likes, or the country will survive and the next people running media will never consider you for work because you were cowardly when we needed your courage. Oh and you can peacefully, legally end the careers of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio and Bari Weiss and lots of others. The material is all in front of you. Just have the courage to pick it up and fling it, like he'd fling his poo at you. ALSO: Don Lemon was arrested not because Jesus but because Trump has always hated him. And if you've forgotten, I explained two weeks ago why Trump was trying to restart the 2020 crap, now sending Tulsi Gabbard to Georgia. They're sitting up not a claim that the election was fixed, but that the election was fixed by another country (hey, Nicolas Maduro, you mind taking the rap, in exchange for a pardon?) and there is no statute of limitations on THAT. B-Block (34:55) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Harriet Hageman, the blob they elected to the House from Wyoming to replace Liz Cheney, is now running for Senate. Emphasize "running": she has fled a town hill. The Bill Maher Pretzel Logic: Celebrities should shut up, voters don't listen to TV and movie stars. But Bill, you expect them to listen to you. So you're saying you're not a star? And the latest Bari Weiss firing target is supposedly Face The Nation host Margaret Brennan and one of the names being thrown around (probably nonsensically) is Matt Lauer. C-Block (54:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: We need a doubleheader. I heard an audio book with a famous actor doing Thurber's tribute to what would be called Dunning-Kruger Syndrome: "The Macbeth Murder Mystery" and it was one of those rare times when I actually said "No - I did this better." So I bring it to you, and as a bonus, a second great unheralded Thurber story: "Meet Birdey Doggett." Enjoy them at your leisure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

More than 3 million pages, 180,000 images and 2,000 videos have been made public in the latest release of the Epstein Files. Lord Mandelson, already sacked as US ambassador over Epstein, is captured in his briefs and accused of taking cash from the sex offender. And the former Prince Andrew is pictured on his knees and faces new claims that Epstein sent a woman to sleep with him - on royal property. Emails from others including Richard Branson and Elon Musk have gained attention - and there is a lot more to come. Also; Don Lemon has been hailed a speech martyr, even receiving a standing ovation at the Grammys, after his arrest for gatecrashing a church service to film anti ICE protesters. Piers Morgan is joined by Ana Kasparian, Tara Palmeri, lawyer Mark Eiglarsh and Eric Bolling to discuss. Then; he speaks to Brett Ratner, director of ‘Melania' - who also appeared in the Epstein Files - and producer Marc Beckman, who is a senior adviser to the First Lady.

On today's episode of The Necessary Conversation, we unpack one of the most explosive news cycles yet—newly released Epstein materials that repeatedly reference Donald Trump, journalists being arrested while covering protests, the FBI seizing 2020 election ballots, and Trump suing the United States government for billions of dollars. And Bob shows off his new MAGA cowboy hat given to him by Hasan Piker.This episode gets heavy, fast.

The $75 million dollar Melania Trump documentary hit theaters this weekend, and we were there to witness it on opening night. In this emergency episode of the Lodgecast, we tell you all we encountered on the screen and in the Burbank 16 theater that projected this movie. Disgraced director Brett Ratner shot this film, which takes place in the 20 days before Donald Trump's second presidential inauguration. It's a disturbing piece of MAGA propaganda that reveals little about Melania and what drives her. Nevertheless, we endured 104 minutes to tell you all of our observations in this special episode!

We've been covering what's happening in Minnesota, and the killing of Alex Pretti, all week on The Verge. To begin this episode, Nilay explains why — and why so many others seem to feel the same way right now. After that, the hosts talk about the CEO-studded screening of Melania Trump's documentary last weekend, the disastrous public appearance from Tim Cook, and whether Cook and other CEOs have any other option but to capitulate to the Trump administration. Then it's time for some gadgets: we talk about the super-foldy, super-expensive Samsung Galaxy  Z Trifold, the Clawdbot / Moltbot phenomenon, and whether Google can finally put Chrome OS and Android together the right way.

Not all listeners agree with Mark’s take on the anti-ICE protests — immigration raids are what they voted for, and that’s what they’re happy to be getting. Are the protesters being paid? And if so, by whom? The silent majority speaks! That is, via the KFI talkbacks. When Barack Obama was president, he was known as the “Deporter in Chief,” but he apparently did it in a much less violent manner. Miracle weightloss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy that’ve been the darling of every fatty trying to drop a few pounds may have a few risky complications! Acute pancreatitis for one. Who knew minor celebrity Mark Thompson went on a date with Sheena Easton to the Kennedy Center! What do you say after a screening when the movie was terrible, but you have to interact with the filmmaker? Disgraced filmmaker Brett Ratner directed the “Melania” documentary. That last sentence has nothing to do with the first sentence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who would have thought a documentary about Melania Trump would under-perform at the box office? Oh, that's right - everybody. Acc and Jack dive into this new Brett Ratner-directed documentary, which is expected to make a mere sliver of its production and marketing budget at the box office. Also discussed in this episode of The Acc and Jack Show: People either really love or really hate the band Geese's performance on Saturday Night Live.

Jeff Bezos's Amazon MGM Studios is due to release its feature-length documentary about Melania Trump, directed by Brett Ratner, a formerly exiled film-maker who was accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women. The documentary was screened at a promotional event inside the White House, attended by what the Hollywood Reporter describes as ‘70 assorted VIPs', including Amazon's Andy Jassy, Apple's Tim Cook and the former boxer Mike Tyson. Bezos bought the rights to the film for $40m (£30m) and spent a further $35m on a global marketing push – but so far, ticket sales are reportedly ‘soft' as it prepares to screen in more than 100 UK cinemas.

Original Release Date: Monday 5 January 2026    Description:   Our first installment of 2026 finds your friends in podcasting discussing why the President of the United States is so insistent on there being another Rush Hour movie from director Brett Ratner. Then, Dean and Phil delve into the two final “Mission: Impossible” movies, both 2023's Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and 2025's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. Then, they delve deep into the strengths and weaknesses of Guillermo del Toro's Netflix film version of Frankenstein. Finally, just in time for Twelfth Night, they go thru a whole lot of seasonal fare, both movies and television specials, including “Pee-wee's Playhouse Christmas Special”, the Rankin-Bass “Frosty the Snowman”, The Muppets Christmas Carol, and Stanley Kubrick's The Shining.

Part 2 of this two-part dive into the recent batch of released Epstein files kicks off by naming more of the men photographed in the Epstein files who seemingly enjoyed the spoils of supporting his network, from magician David Copperfield, to disgraced movie director Brett Ratner, to named co-conspirator, and infamous predator disguised as a model scout, Jean-Luc Brunel. With more released documentation of what victims were reporting over the years, and who could have taken action, the number of people who chose to look the other way is astounding. A startling FBI Tip from an alleged victim regarding Epstein and Trump's involvement in crimes against her at 13-years old on Lake Michigan takes us on a historical dive into forced business connections with that area that span decades. Several victim statements and allegations are reviewed, and throughout, we see the impact of Virginia Giuffre's bravery to pursue legal action against Ghislaine Maxwell and speak publicly. All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

With just a few days to go until Christmas, it's time for another movie set on the big day. Not-so-jolly ol' (not a saint) Nic Cage plays an ordinary and restrained regular guy in The Family Man while Tea Leoni is at her most likable and charming as his wife. After splitting up in college, Mister Successful gets a glimpse of what their life COULD have been. The controversial frat-boy Brett Ratner directed a dramedy that's going for a vibe similar to It's A Wonderful Life, including the main character's distaste for his lot in life (in the "Glimpse-verse", at least)…but also giving us a touching ending. So choose us by choosing to listen to the 703rd episode of Have You Ever Seen. And Merry Holidays-mas, one and all!

Austin picks this week's film in the December category! The Family Man (2000) Directed by Brett Ratner

On this week's episode, I'm rejoined by Scott Mendelson of The Outside Scoop, whom I've tasked with answering a very simple question: Is there a good business case to be made for rebooting the Rush Hour franchise or is it merely a (very odd) sop to Donald Trump and his wife's chronicler, Brett Ratner? (:47). Then we discussed Zootopia's crazy popularity in China. (14:16) We taped this episode before news broke that Netflix had completed its purchase of the studio and streaming assets of Warner Bros., but we were prescient enough to discuss what might happen if Netflix picked up a controlling stake in WB. Spoiler: Nothing good for competition in Hollywood! (33:15)

Happy Thanksgiving week! Just a few major stories to break down this week. FarCry is headed to television on FX with Rob Mac staring, which is the right type of chaos that show needs. Wicked went off to see the wizard with a big box office take, and it might not be, for good. Plus Rush Hour 4 is happening, and the reason why is pretty unusual. That and more on this weeks episode.

The gang breaks down the revival of Rush Hour 4, a project brought back to life after President Trump reportedly lobbied Paramount's top shareholder to greenlight Brett Ratner's return to the franchise. With Ratner facing years of misconduct allegations and Trump reshaping Hollywood through friendly creatives, the trio asks what this says about Trump's pressure on companies. Then they turn to Thanksgiving travel, questioning whether the busiest travel weekend in America should have its own federal rules as airports, highways, and rail systems buckle each year under the holiday surge.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:10:12 - Rush Hour 400:34:21 - Thanksgiving Travel Laws00:52:35 - Emails01:07:07 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast.

Roman Polanski appearing in Rush Hour 3 makes a lot more sense now. Rapist recognises rapist.

Chrisean Rock revealed she regrets having her son with Blueface, saying the negativity from him and his family—especially his mother Karlissa—has left her feeling surrounded by “evil.” Robert Irwin and Witney Carson won “Dancing with the Stars” Season 34 after a high-stakes finale. Also, romance rumors are swirling around Robert Irwin and Xochitl Gomez after they were spotted hugging, chatting, and spending time together backstage before the finale. Donald Trump has reportedly pushed for “Rush Hour 4,” bringing back Brett Ratner despite his #MeToo allegations. Plus, Tara Reid filed a police report claiming she was drugged at an Illinois hotel after finding a mysterious napkin over her drink and later waking up in a hospital.

In this episode of the Hollywood Godfather podcast, Gianni reflects on his personal connection with director Brett Ratner and their experiences working on the movie 'The Family Man.' He recalls meeting Ratner as a child, dating his mother, and witnessing Ratner's career development. The discussion focusses on the key elements and plot points of 'The Family Man,' starring Nicolas Cage and Téa Leoni, including its exploration of life's unexpected twists and the importance of family. Russo shares anecdotes from the film set, delves into the movie's themes, and emphasizes its suitability as a holiday classic.

Our exit today has us stopping an international counterfeit money scheme. This week, we are talking about Rush Hour 2, written by Ross LaManna and Jeff Nathanson and directed by Brett Ratner.In preparation, Tripp watched Rush Hour, so there is a lot of comparing between the two movies. There is also discussion about bloopers (of course), Jackie Chan, Chris Tucker, Zhang Ziyi, Ocean's Eleven, some cultural insensitivity, 90s action films, Quebecois cinema, Hong Kong, Jeremy Piven, Billy Crystal, erotic Antonio Banderas films, and a surprisingly long conversation comparing the different cuts of Apocalypse Now!Thememusic by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CFF Films⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Ross and friends.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies We've Covered on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies Recommended on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.

We present our comparison of Hercules: The Thracian Wars to Hercules the 2014 movie starring Dwayne Johnson! Hercules is a Radical Comics character who has appeared in two limited series, The Thracian Wars and The Knives of Kush, both written by Steve Moore with Cris Bolsin as the artist. The Jim Steranko "Hercules" from the cover of the first issue is also featured in solid bronze as the first in the Radical Toyz product line. Radical Toyz commissioned sculptor Chris Ingram to bring to life the art that represents Radical's flagship title.The story takes place in barbarian Thrace, in Northern Greece. Hercules and his companions are hired by the Thracian king, Cotys, to train the Thracian army into one that excels in ruthlessness.Hercules is a 2014 American action-adventure fantasy film directed by Brett Ratner from a screenplay by Ryan J. Condal and Evan Spiliotopoulos. It stars Dwayne Johnson as Hercules, a self-proclaimed demigod who is hired to lead the armies of Thrace into battle against a warlord.

WILL GRAHAM & HANNIBAL LECTER HUNT A KILLER!! Red Dragon Full Reaction Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects! RED DRAGON Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Full Spoiler Review!! Roxy Striar and Andrew Gordon sink their teeth into Red Dragon (2002), the chilling prequel to The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal!! Directed by Brett Ratner and based on the novel by Thomas Harris, the film sets the stage for Hannibal Lecter's reign of terror by diving into the case that first brought him down. Edward Norton (Fight Club, American History X) stars as Will Graham, a gifted FBI profiler pulled out of retirement to track down a serial killer known as “The Tooth Fairy.” To catch him, Graham must confront the brilliant and sadistic Dr. Hannibal Lecter—played once again by Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs, The Father) in one of his most iconic roles. Ralph Fiennes (Schindler's List, Harry Potter) delivers a haunting performance as Francis Dolarhyde, a reclusive killer obsessed with transformation, while Emily Watson (Breaking the Waves, Punch-Drunk Love) plays Reba, a blind woman who sparks an emotional conflict within him. The cast also features Harvey Keitel (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction) as FBI agent Jack Crawford, Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote, The Master) as sleazy tabloid reporter Freddy Lounds, and Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds, Fried Green Tomatoes) as Molly Graham, Will's wife. Famous and highly searched moments include Lecter's cryptic manipulation from his cell, the terrifying home invasion sequence, and Dolarhyde's dragon transformation imagery—especially the chilling use of William Blake's painting The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in Sun. With psychological tension, disturbing visuals, and a legacy of terror, Red Dragon cements itself as a key chapter in the Hannibal Lecter saga.

Zo is in the famed Chinatown area of Los Angeles enjoying the sights, the sounds and, as it turns out, a bunch of commotion. Zo loves a good martial arts bout just like everyone else, but does a kung fu fight have to break out at the Chinese restaurant where he's at trying to enjoy egg fu young? It seems as though a well dressed Chinese man and a tall, lanky, goofy looking African American are in a full-on Hong Kong film fight with a bunch of unruly Chinese gangsters. At some point the tall goofy one, who's been talking non-stop during the fight, screams out "LAPD!," so these are supposed to be the cops? Instead of law and order they're causing an unacceptable amount of chaos smashing dishes, overturning tables and generally upsetting customers. Bumper to bumper traffic and kung fu fights . . . is Rush Hour always like this? Episode Segments00:03:41 - Opening Credits for Rush Hour starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker00:12:27 - Favorite Parts of the 1998 Film: Rush Hour00:28:04 - Trivia from the Movie Rush Hour00:33:25 - Critics' Thoughts on Brett Ratner's Rush Hour Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.

James Majure returns to the pod from Athens, GA for a two-part episode on Michael Mann's Manhunter, a box office and critical disappointment in 1986 that has emerged over the decades into being extremely influential not only on Mann's future works but on film and television in general, from genre conventions to forensic procedurals on TV. In part 1, we discuss the various cuts of Manhunter in existence, the source material, Thomas Harris' bestselling novel Red Dragon, Mann's tremendous empathy towards all the characters in his adaptation, the ways Manhunter's themes keeps turning up in Mann's later works, and how the Miami Vice series seems to have been a test kitchen for a lot of Mann's preoccupations as a film stylist.  Plus: a Michael Mann update with the surprise arrival of The Keep to Bluray and the 25th anniversary of The Insider. Part 2 of our discussion about Manhunter, including the Brett Ratner remake Red Dragon and a mid-series episode of Miami Vice that feels a lot like Manhunter, is available on the Junk Filter Patreon feed.  Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

Pls sub to the PPM Patreon to support our ongoing struggle against the Diddler trafficking nexus and to access the recently declassified "Dossier #6.A": patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping This is an emergency broadcast in light of recent developments. Diddy Declassified class is back in session. Dossier #4 has been bifurcated. This first part, now unlocked for your listening pleasure & edification, is a solo segue back into the series, contending w/ some of the recent developments in the downfall of the House of Diddy: Dossier #4.A - Includes coverage of some of the recent developments in the Diddler's downfall, such as the grand jury indictment & a slew of additional lawsuit complaints that have been filed in recent weeks by plaintiffs like Thalia Graves & Michigan convict Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith, as well as Alfredo P. Gonzalez, an incarcerated Sinaloan cartel member that had his lawsuit demanding $666k (sus) in damages as compensation for the biz he lost after allegedly getting blacklisted in the streets of NYC once he refused to traffick "boys / girls" for the Diddler dismissed by the presiding judge (sadly)... Fellow convict Cardello-Smith was much luckier (himself in prison on sex crime & unrelated kidnapping charges), as he received an initial $100 mil default judgment in his favor as Diddy failed to show up for the court proceedings or file a responsive motion. In the solo intro, we also go pretty deep on illustrating the interlocking ties between Z i o n i s t powerbroking families the Lauders (Estée Lauder) and the Bronfmans (Seagrams & otherwise) which brings the Diddler's close proximity to the Epstein-affiliated Mega Group into full view... As well as Harvey Weinstein. Illustrating how all of these entries in Diddy's Rolodex intersect both in the corporeal sense at his lavish, salacious Sean John x Estée Lauder fragrance launch parties, but also on a shared ideological Z i o n i s t level. And then we also examine Diddy's appointment of defense lawyer Marc Agnifilo (past clients include sexual monsters like NXIVM leader Keith Raniere, Harvey Weinstein, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, & Martin Shkreli, among many others) from this perspective of his shared social circle that numbers many Lauders & Bronfmans, and which brings Diddy buddy Edgar Bronfman Jr.'s family's close ties to the human potential sex cult into the mix, and which seems like a very foreboding bellwether for the Diddler's legal prospects, as pretty much all of Agnifilo's high profile defenses of sexual criminals & otherwise have failed utterly. We also get some of Edgar Bronfman Jr's music industry career details on the board, including his stint as CEO of Warner Music Group, which led to Bad Boy becoming an imprint for about 4 years, before he sold the major to fellow Z i o n i s t Len Blavatnik (not to mention buddy of cinema sex pests Harvey Weinstein & Brett Ratner). We talk the Diddler's apparent distro of illicit rape tapes, which takes his filming & blackmail tendencies to new noided heights... This is explored via the Thalia Graves lawsuit and Diddy's relationship w/ Rhymes & Dimes porno publisher & former celebrity bodyguard Big Joe Sherman. We talk about the corruption & bribery scandal in NY, Mayor Adams indictment, & a seemingly unrelated Hudson Valley case that resulted in a Judge putting his gun in his mouth & pulling the trigger while in the midst of a firefight w/ feds... And then there's a ton more besides.
