Send us a Question!PARTY PLEASER: Kathryn joins Melvin to summarize this year's cherry-picked so-bad-its-good movie, War of the Worlds (2025)! Featuring a cast of fairly known names (Ice Cube, Eva Longoria, Devon Bostick, Clark Gregg, and many more) this odd adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic limits its prose to a computer screen. What could go wrong?  Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 20-minutes discussing Chris Columbus' pull quote on the Harry Potter Reboot, "What's the point?", and the unique nature of rebooting Harry Potter as a series unlike other franchises that offer spinoffs, prequels, or alt-universe tales. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) The entire film is told through the prose of a computer screen (and sometimes cellphone screen). How do Kathryn and Melvin feel about this?Ultimately, the film is in over its head, and it isn't even sure how to handle dialogue and drama let alone thrills and action sequences.Yapping about how movies sometimes advertise products and how Tesla does NOT come out of War of the Worlds (2025) looking good.Beefing with Will Radford since he's a bad character and a bad dad.Melvin ponders why movies like this take off and how the streaming as a distribution format influences this sort of thing.The third act of the film, specifically the climax, is when everything bizarre and noteworthy happens.Recommendations:Castle Rock (Season 1) (2018) (TV-Series)Friday the 13th Part III (1982) (Movie)Support the showSupport on Patreon for Unique Perks!

Triple Feature: Happy Gilmore 2/Heads of State/The Thursday Murder Club

Tonight's Triple Feature brings together three wildly different but thematically connected films: Happy Gilmore 2, Heads of State, and The Thursday Murder Club. Netflix leads with Happy Gilmore 2, directed by Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya) and marking Adam Sandler's return to his most iconic role in a sequel that blends nostalgia with heart. Amazon Prime counters with Heads of State, an action-comedy from Ilya Naishuller (Nobody) starring John Cena and Idris Elba as unlikely political partners, mixing campaign satire with explosive buddy-movie energy. Rounding things out is Netflix's adaptation of Richard Osman's bestseller The Thursday Murder Club, helmed by Chris Columbus and headlined by Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, and Ben Kingsley in what looks to be the start of a cozy-crime franchise. Critics call Happy Gilmore 2 a fun if uneven revival, Heads of State a brash but entertaining streaming-era crowd-pleaser, and The Thursday Murder Club charming and faithful, if leisurely paced. Together, these films explore the comedy and drama of second chances and reinvention—whether it's Sandler's aging golfer taking another swing, Cena and Elba finding common ground in chaos, or a group of retirees proving that friendship and wit never go out of style.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Wenn Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan und Ben Kingsley in einer Seniorenresidenz plötzlich zum Mordclub werden, klingt das nach einem perfekten Cozy-Crime-Rezept. Doch kann Chris Columbus' Verfilmung von Richard Osmans Bestseller wirklich mit modernen Whodunnits wie Knives Out mithalten – oder bleibt es bei Sonntagskrimi-Vibes? Wir sprechen über das Zusammenspiel der Starbesetzung, die Eigenheiten des Genres „Cozy Crime“ und die Frage, ob der „Donnerstagsmordclub“ mehr ist als ein netter Rätselspaß für zwischendurch.

The Film Board by The Next Reel Film Podcasts

Case Notes, August 30th, 2025: A suspiciously cozy murder mystery has been committed. The suspects—Tommy Metz III, Mandy Kaplan, Steve Sarmento, and Justin “JJ” Jaeger—have assembled remotely, each with their own dubious alibis and hot takes. The film: The Thursday Murder Club, Netflix's big adaptation of Richard Osman's beloved novel. The crime? A charming cast, a confusing mystery, and a script that may or may not have committed third-degree exposition.This month's Film Board roundtable dives headfirst into the soft lighting and softer stakes of this senior-led whodunit. JJ comes in as the film's most vocal defender, praising its character-driven structure and comparing it (gasp!) to Knives Out. Tommy and Steve are less convinced, calling the movie pleasant but forgettable, faulting everything from flat cinematography to emotionally neutered finales. Mandy, the show's resident Osman superfan, mourns the depth lost in translation from page to screen. Pete, meanwhile, accuses Chris Columbus of directing every scene like it's the trailer—and not in a good way.From plot structure and adaptation choices to the aesthetics of Cooper's Chase and the misuses of Sir Ben Kingsley, this episode covers it all. Was it a missed opportunity or just an okay pizza? Can Helen Mirren's exposition dumps be forgiven? Did we really need the cold case? Should somebody address the case of Jonathan Pryce?If you love spirited disagreement, spoilers aplenty, and occasional emotional whiplash caused by the word “cake,” this is your episode.Watch & DiscoverWatch Now: NetflixOriginal Theatrical TrailerAdapted from The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman Support The Next Reel Family of Film Podcasts:Become a member for just $5/month or $55/yearJoin our Discord community of movie loversThe Next Reel Family of Film Podcasts:Cinema Scope: Bridging Genres, Subgenres, and MovementsThe Film BoardMovies We LikeThe Next Reel Film PodcastSitting in the DarkConnect With Us:Main Site: WebMovie Platforms: Letterboxd | FlickchartSocial Media: Facebook | Instagram | Threads | Bluesky | YouTube | PinterestYour Hosts: Pete | JJ | Steve | Tommy | Andy | Ocean Shop & Stream:Merch Store: Apparel, stickers, mugs & moreWatch Page: Buy/rent films we've discussedOriginals: Source material from our episodesSpecial offers: Letterboxd Pro/Patron discount | Audible

This week on The Filmmakers Podcast, hosts Conor Boru and Francis Annan welcome two icons of the filmmaking world: producer, writer and director Chris Columbus, and Academy Award-winning actor Sir Ben Kingsley. Chris Columbus – the creative force behind classics such as Home Alone, Mrs Doubtfire and the first two Harry Potter films – shares his experiences of working with visionary directors like Robert Eggers, his approach to shaping scripts as a director, and the importance of collaboration with actors. He also reflects on the role of rehearsals, the unique magic of making films for the big screen, the movies that continue to inspire him, and why he believes there is so much to learn from the new generation of filmmakers. Sir Ben Kingsley – whose career spans over five decades with landmark performances in Gandhi, Schindler's List and Sexy Beast – discusses the inspirations that continue to fuel his craft. He speaks about his Shakespearean roots, the nuances of performing for stage versus screen, and offers invaluable insights for emerging actors looking to build their careers. An unmissable conversation with two true legends of cinema. The Thursday Murder Club is out now!

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars and movie directors! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Sometimes we are lucky enough to even speak with them about their work. And sometimes, they are both a movie star and a movie director. Today that's Embeth Davidtz, director of Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, now in theaters and expanding this weekend. Our B-Sides include Feast of July, The Gingerbread Man, Mansfield Park, and Bicentennial Man. We speak with Davidtz about her directorial debut, her incredibly diverse acting career, and adapting from the memoir by Alexandra Fuller. There's extended discussion of Robert Altman's direction of actors, the underrated qualities of Feast of July (a Merchant Ivory production!), and the ambitions of Bicentennial Man. Not to mention the incredible high-wire act by Davidtz's in her dual performance in that Chris Columbus sci-fi epic. There are reflections on working with B-Side friend and frequent guest Alessandro Nivola, the legacy of the Miss Honey character from Matilda, and the “trickery” involved in directing a child like Lexi Venter to an incredibly natural performance.

Listen as we ponder such questions as: are vampires played out as a narrative concept? Does this movie function as an earnest feminist counter to its sex-centered marketing? Is this movie an attempt to better execute the core ideas behind Jordan's previous film Ondine? Is Caleb Landy Jones Good in this? What's going on with Caleb Landry Jones' Wikipedia page? What's going on with this movie's Wikipedia page? What going on with Chris Columbus' Wikipedia page? The answers to these questions, and more, can be found within. Hosted on Acast.

Yes, we really get into the “Gremlins” original script by Chris Columbus and its novelization by George Gipe!In the original script, Billy is fantasy author and sticks up for himself much more. Of course, the gremlins themselves are also more vicious. Gone is the good mogwai character of Gizmo. In fact, they kill and eat the dog, decapitate Billy's mom, and eat some McDonald's customers (rather than the food). Thankfully, Joe Dante lightened the tone and brought in some humor.In contrast to the mysterious thriller of Columbus, Gipe expands the backstory of the creatures. In his origin, the mogwai were genetically engineered by an alien named Mogturmen to be gifts and peace offerings to neighboring worlds. Unfortunately, he miscalculated, and the gifts turned out to be mischievous and murderous pests. Can't win ‘em all, I guess.Medieval sword replica? Check. Alien geneticist? Yup. Gremlin in a toolbox thrown into a lake? Only if you want to setup a sequel!

In more detail, it's the 40th Anniversary of the movie and as Mike is attending the Forbidden Worlds Film Festival, where a special showing (& cast Q&A) is happening, he wanted to give the movie a go beforehand! In this review Mike talks about the characters, special effects, the directorial-style, the connections to adaptations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's works, the general “vibe” of the movie and so much more! Mike does spoil some aspects of the movie, but leaves some out, to encourage you to check the movie out yourself and make your own mind up!
