To prick the human conscience itself, to make it bleed the shape of hopeless loss, and want to die but know that conscience denies, even as the gravity of nothing leaves it laughing and alone.

David Annandale and I walk back down Poverty Row just after the attack on Pearl Harbor to watch one of the most confusing and strange attempts at wartime propaganda a low budget studio could produce. BLACK DRAGONS (1942) has Bela Lugosi as a mysterious, menacing man who seems to be on a mission of revenge. But what does he have to do with the corpses that keep popping up on the steps of the Japanese embassy in Washington? Will FBI agent Clayton Moore be able to figure things out or will he spend his time chasing Joan Barclay around her uncle/father's house until all the characters are dead? And how does David find a way to link Christopher Nolan and Bela Lugosi? Listen and learn! BLACK DRAGONS is probably the oddest of the nine films Lugosi made for Poverty Row film producers and certainly the one with the most unintentionally funny dialog. Just as it was about to go into production the decision was made to shoehorn in topical plot elements ripped from the headlines. This means that the original reason behind events in the script has been lost leaving bits of their probable supernatural nature flapping around in the film. This is the only explanation I can imagine for the never addressed ability of Lugosi's Monsieur Colomb to seemingly teleport in and out of moving taxicabs! But David has an interesting take on the film as a bizarre treatise on the subject of ‘acting' both onscreen and within the structure of the story. His idea is a bold way to look at the picture as a whole and certainly makes it more entertaining as you try to figure out what the hell is happening at any point in the film's hourlong running time. Rarely has such a barely planned collection of quirks and gaffs been so mesmerizing! If you have any comments about this movie or any other film we've covered on the show thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. Thank you for listening and we'll be back soon.

Holy identity crisis Batman! It's time to tumble into a brand-new season of Shoot the Hostage. This time, the theme is Identity and we're kicking off with Christopher Nolan's “grounded” take on the superhero genre, Batman Begins (2005). While Nolan was busy trying to convince the world that a billionaire in a rubber suit is grounded, we're here to ask the tough questions like why Christian Bale sounds like he's gargling gravel and how Liam Neeson ended up looking like a 90s street magician with a Fu Manchu complex. We'll be navigating the cinema of the mid-2000s, discussing whether Gary Oldman is just a collection of various chameleons in a trench coat and why Cillian Murphy seems to be the only person who realised he was actually in a comic book movie. We also look at the character identities of altruistic billionaires and wonder if Michael Caine is just playing everyone's favourite Tory father figure. In this episode, you can expect: Dan's reasons for choosing the theme of “Identity” We discuss the Darren Aronofsky Batman film that probably would have had Martha Wayne shooting up in crime alley. The croissant-based origins of the Batmobile. We revisit the dark days of 2005 when the Crazy Frog was the pinnacle of cultural achievement. Debate regarding the physics of a water vaporiser that somehow ignores the fact that humans are made of mostly water. We discuss why Christopher Nolan films are best enjoyed at 3pm on a Sunday with very specific speakers. The sliding doors moment in this movie with Joe Chill in the courthouse.

Our Oscar retrospective continues as we spotlight a past Best Film Editing winner with Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk.Told across land, sea, and air — each on a different timeline — Dunkirk is a masterclass in editing as storytelling. We break down how Lee Smith's Oscar-winning work builds relentless tension, manipulates time, and transforms a historical evacuation into a cinematic pressure cooker.We discuss how the film's structure elevates the experience, how Hans Zimmer's ticking score works hand-in-hand with the edit, and why Dunkirk proves that editing isn't just technical — it's emotional.Tense, immersive, and meticulously crafted — this is Oscar-winning precision at its finest.#WatchTowerFilmPodcast #OscarSeason #Dunkirk #BestEditing #ChristopherNolan #LeeSmith #AcademyAwards #FilmPodcast #WarCinema #CinematicTension

Host Victor opens by previewing the podcast's current coverage: HBO's Industry (focus of this episode), The Pitt on HBO Max, Apple TV+'s Drops of God, and a Christopher Nolan rewatch ahead of The Odyssey (with upcoming discussion of Insomnia). He also mentions upcoming premieres including Paradise, which remains the podcast's most popular show. mailto:needssomeintroduction@gmail.com Victor calls Industry's episode “Dear Henry” an elite, event-packed installment that feels like a season finale while resolving little. He follows up on last week's revelation that Tender is effectively a Ponzi scheme by outlining real-world analogs: the FTX collapse (FTX/Alameda circular self-inflation via the FTT token), Germany's Wirecard fraud (manufactured transactions, overpaying for acquisitions, auditors' failures, and political/regulatory protection including actions against Financial Times reporting), and Theranos as a charisma-driven deception. He also notes money-laundering examples involving Ghana and argues the show's broader theme is the emptiness of a culture fixated on wealth, valuation, and belief-driven “truth,” raising questions about how much corporate value is overstated and whether society celebrates con men. Joined by Darren, they first discuss the Game of Thrones prequel A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (episodes 1–5), praising its intimacy, sets, humor, acting, and a brutal recent battle episode, and noting its short season and fast production cadence. They then break down “Dear Henry”: Harper warns Yasmin that she and Henry were duped by Whitney, and while Yasmin reacts defensively, the warning sinks in. Whitney's unsettling dynamic with Henry escalates (including a bathroom/shower moment and later clubbing), while Henry grows suspicious about Tender's audit and Whitney's manipulation. Sweetpea's public takedown presentation at an Alpha conference drives Tender's stock down sharply and impresses Eric, who watches with pride. In Ghana, a planned whistleblower meeting is disrupted when Whitney arrives first and intimidates the potential source (Tony), reinforcing fears of more dangerous forces behind Tender. Later, Whitney is revealed to be using a fabricated identity (a Lithuanian passport is shown) and a conversation indicates Russian-linked backers are laundering money through Tender, trapping Whitney and raising the stakes for everyone. They discuss Whitney's use of high-end escorts as tools for access and influence; Hayley confirms she and others were planted around key figures and that sex acts were recorded, confronting Yasmin with how they were exploited. Eric receives a compromising video involving an underage girl (“Dolly”) while with his daughter, but still appears on TV to push for a new audit, warning Whitney not to corner him and implying he could expose Whitney. Henry fires an auditor and tries to assert control as CEO, while Whitney continues drafting a “Dear Henry” letter about a “hole in the bucket,” revealed as a cash-flow/shortfall problem. The episode culminates in Eric meeting Harper with a lawyer present; he asks only for his original investment back to be put in trusts for his daughters if the short pays off, suggesting he may be planning to exit entirely. Eric admits he felt genuine pride watching Sweetpea, more than he expected he could feel, and the final image of him walking alone fuels Victor and Darren's concern about possible suicide or at least Eric's departure from the show. They close by anticipating two remaining Industry episodes, the A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms finale, and the upcoming launch of Paradise, while noting Darren will be traveling and will catch up later. 00:00 Welcome & What We're Covering This Week (Industry, The Pit, Drops of God, Nolan Rewatch) 02:36 Why This Week's Industry Episode ‘Dear Henry' Feels Like a Finale 03:20 Tender as a Ponzi: Looking for Real-World Analogs 05:24 FTX Explained: The Circular Token House of Cards 10:27 Wirecard: The Closer European Parallel (Fraud, Audits, Politics) 18:26 More Scams & Money Laundering Threads: Theranos, Ghana, and Beyond 19:59 What Industry Is Really Saying: The Emptiness of Wealth Culture 23:49 Darren Joins: Quick Detour Into the New GoT Prequel ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' 39:41 Back to Industry: First Impressions, Then Scene-by-Scene Breakdown Begins (Yasmin & Harper) 42:46 Yasmin vs. Harper: Self-Made Power vs. Riding Coattails 43:32 Trailer Talk: Are Harper & Yasmin Two Sides of the Same Coin? 45:48 Whitney's Shower Ambush & the ‘Hole in the Bucket' Letter 49:44 Boarding School ‘Experimentation' and Henry's Growing Suspicion 52:12 Whitney's Intimate Manipulation: Touch, Jealousy, and Control 57:03 Political Satire + Real-World Scam Parallels (FTX, Wirecard, Theranos) 01:01:35 ‘Too Big to Fail' Lies: Can a Fake World Hold Together? 01:03:06 Clubbing, Relapse Energy, and Henry's Night Spirals 01:05:53 Was Jim's Overdose a Setup?

Art & Joe start talking some Werewolf by Night. Also they talk a lil D&D, a little Christopher Nolan, a lil OBS....

Greek mythology has a way of cycling back. Every generation seems to take a turn with these stories, reshaping them to fit the tools and tastes of the moment. With a new version of The Odyssey directed by Christopher Nolan on the horizon, it feels like a good time to revisit a few earlier attempts. Not the definitive versions. Just four films that each capture a different moment in how the myths were staged.Jason and the ArgonautsDirected by Don Chaffey and brought to life by the stop motion work of Ray Harryhausen, this remains the standard for mythological adventure on film.The skeleton fight is still the showcase. Harryhausen animated seven sword fighting skeletons by hand, frame by frame, matching choreography that had already been filmed with live actors. It took months to complete just a few minutes of screen time. The patience shows. The movement has weight and timing that still feels precise.There is also Talos, the bronze giant, who creaks to life in a way that feels mechanical and ancient at the same time. No digital polish. Just careful craft. The film was not a major hit in 1963, but it built its reputation through television airings and revival screenings. Filmmakers like Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson have pointed to it as an influence.Clash of the TitansNearly twenty years later, Harryhausen returned for what would be his final feature. Released in 1981, the same summer as Raiders of the Lost Ark, it feels like a bridge between eras.Medusa is the standout. Instead of legs she has a serpentine body, and the sequence plays almost like a horror film, full of shadow and flickering light. Harryhausen again handled the creature effects himself, at a time when optical and early digital techniques were starting to change the industry.The cast gives the film a formal tone. Laurence Olivier plays Zeus and Maggie Smith appears as Thetis. There is also Bubo, the small mechanical owl added after the success of Star Wars. Even at the time some viewers were unsure about that addition. It says a lot about where fantasy films were headed in the early 1980s.HerculesDirected by Luigi Cozzi and starring Lou Ferrigno, this version of Hercules leans into spectacle in a way that is sometimes baffling and sometimes charming.Ferrigno had already been known for playing the Hulk on television, so casting him as Hercules made sense on a physical level. The film itself mixes Greek myth with science fiction imagery, including cosmic visuals and creatures that feel closer to Italian fantasy cinema than to Homer.It was part of a cycle of sword and sandal films in the early 1980s, many of them international co productions designed for global markets. The effects are uneven, but there is sincerity here. It commits to its vision without irony.The OdysseyDirected by Andrei Konchalovsky and starring Armand Assante, this two part television adaptation aired in 1997 as an event production.The format allows it to cover more of the journey than most feature films attempt. The Cyclops sequence and the Sirens episode stand out, helped by visual effects that were ambitious for network television at the time. The production won an Emmy for visual effects and reflects a brief period when large scale myth adaptations were being mounted for prime time audiences.Watching it now, you can see both its limits and its effort. It wants to treat the source material seriously, without reducing it to spectacle alone.Taken together, these films show how the same source material can shift with the era. Stop motion craft in the 1960s. Transitional fantasy in the early 1980s. International genre filmmaking. Large scale television in the 1990s.When Nolan releases his Odyssey, it will enter a long line of attempts to translate these myths into something contemporary. Revisiting these earlier versions is a way to see how each generation solved the same problem with different tools.They are worth tracking down. Not because they are perfect, but because each one reflects a moment when someone decided these ancient stories were still worth staging carefully.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Host Victor opens by recapping the podcast's current coverage: weekly breakdowns of The Pitt season 2 with his wife Kim (a medical PA), discussion of Industry, and a recommendation to watch the Game of Thrones prequel A Night of the Seven Kingdoms (six-episode season, renewed for season 2). He also notes a Christopher Nolan rewatch series (Following and Memento). He invites feedback via email and Spotify/YouTube comments and asks listeners to share the show.   Victor and Kim then discuss The Pitt episode 6, directed by Noah Wyle (his first directing credit on the show). They describe it as more “mundane” in plot but possibly the best episode of the season due to staff camaraderie and subtle emotional beats. A central throughline is the death of frequent-flyer patient Louie, which the staff grieves, contrasted with new doctor Ogilvy's detached comments. They discuss how ER staff form relationships with frequent flyers and the episode's late reveal that Louie's chronic drinking followed a car accident that killed his pregnant wife.   A major theme is the “invisible work” of nurses: Perlah's grief, Dana cleaning Louie's body, behind-the-scenes patient prep, and how experienced nurses and advanced practitioners often run workflows and handle details. Kim relates this to real practice, including ICU and ER routines and how PAs/NPs frequently have more laceration-repair experience than attending physicians. They also touch on what happens to unclaimed bodies (morgue, possible cremation) and note the episode's visual focus on a homeless patient as part of a broader theme of dignity for underserved people.   They cover other episode storylines: an incarcerated, malnourished patient whom Dr. Al-Hashimi wants to help despite bed pressures; Dana appears to manipulate an oxygen monitor reading (tape is implied) to keep him from being discharged; and a new competent nurse who arrives mid-shift, prompting discussion of ER shift overlap and staffing. They discuss a law student experiencing a first psychotic episode and how wording like “what's wrong with him” can alarm family members.   Victor and Kim analyze a cancer patient on home hospice who refuses to leave the hospital, with a death doula present. Kim suspects heavy pain medication (including ketamine and long-acting morphine) could lead to respiratory compromise, while Victor wonders if the patient is trying to die away from her husband. They also discuss Santos being behind on notes, a comedic/critical AI documentation thread (including errors like urologist vs neurologist and incorrect surgical history), and broader electronic medical record and faxing frustrations.   Additional medical beats include the waitress developing a life-threatening infection leading to an above-knee amputation, a patient demanding repeated D-dimer testing despite being on Eliquis, and Kim explaining what a D-dimer is and how unnecessary testing increases costs. They discuss translation access for hearing-impaired and non-English-speaking patients via video interpreter services. Character moments include Joy revealing she wants to be a pathologist to avoid patient interaction, and a motorcycle knee-laceration case using fluorescein to check joint involvement.   They end by noting Louie dies from pulmonary hemorrhage (Kim would have liked more foreshadowing) and Kim shares a real trauma case involving an alcoholic with liver failure who died from bleeding after a minor accident. Victor briefly previews Drops of God season 2 episode “Brothers and Sisters,” highlighting themes of sibling conflict and a toxic Georgian sibling relationship, and says they will discuss the current and next episode later. Victor closes with reminders about ongoing Industry coverage, the Nolan rewatch, upcoming premieres, and holiday/Valentine's greetings.   00:00 Welcome + What We're Covering on the Podcast This Week 00:35 Why You Should Watch ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' (GOT Spinoff Pitch) 02:32 Other Ongoing Coverage: Industry, Nolan Rewatch, and What's Next with Sona 03:58 Subscribe, Feedback, and Quick Programming Notes (Drops of God Tease) 04:50 Episode 6 Kickoff: Why This Might Be the Best ‘The Pit' of the Season 06:26 Louis' Death as the Emotional Through-Line (and Ogilvy's Cold Take) 09:16 The ‘Invisible Work': Nurses, Body Care, and Behind-the-Scenes Medicine 13:02 NP/PA Skills in the ER: Suturing, Lacerations, and Who Really Closes Wounds 15:30 Frequent Flyers & What Happens When No One Claims a Body 17:50 Underserved Patients Theme: Homeless Man, Inmate Case, and Bending the Rules 22:03 Dana Steps Up + The New Nurse Mystery (Shifts, Overlap, and Staffing) 24:48 Psychosis Case Update: Communicating Uncertainty to Family 26:13 End-of-Life Cancer Patient: Husband Dynamics and Pain Med Risks 28:17 End-of-Life Choices: Hospice, Dignity, and ‘I Don't Want to Leave' 30:00 Santos' Rough Week: Sleep Deprivation, Garcia, and AI Note Chaos 31:30 AI in Medicine vs Reality: Dictation Errors, Copy-Paste Charts, and Fax Machines 33:55 The Waitress Case Turns Critical: Above-Knee Amputation & Medical Anxiety 35:20 ER Testing 101: D-Dimer, Patient Demands, and Healthcare Costs 37:38 Communication Barriers: Sign Language, iPad Interpreters, and Future AI Translation 39:54 Joy & Ogilvy Career Talk: Why Pathology Is the ‘Hard Pass' Specialty 41:33 Motorcycle Knee Laceration Workup: Fluorescein Joint Injection Explained 42:53 Louis' Death & Pulmonary Hemorrhage: Humanizing the Staff + A Trauma Story 46:02 Drops of God Check-In: ‘Brothers and Sisters' and Where the Season's Headed 49:22 Wrap-Up: Upcoming Pods (Industry, Nolan Rewatch) and Farewell

Entre dezenas de produções independentes do mundo inteiro, um filme brasileiro marca presença na competição do Slamdance Film Festival, que começa no próximo dia 19, em Los Angeles. É com a estreia mundial de “Antônio Odisseia” que o Brasil desembarca no evento conhecido por revelar grandes nomes do cinema como Sean Baker, Christopher Nolan e o sul-coreano Bong Joon-ho. O longa, dirigido pelo paranaense Thales Banzai, leva à tela uma jornada intensa, caótica, visceral e bem brasileira. Cleide Klock, correspondente da RFI em Los Angeles Na história, Tony e sua melhor amiga, Ivy, assaltam o bar onde ele trabalha e roubam drogas que os levam a uma odisseia surrealista rumo a um encontro com Deus. O que começa como um roubo impulsivo rapidamente se transforma em uma jornada existencial, atravessada por delírio, espiritualidade e encontros inesperados. O cineasta Thales Banzai mora em Los Angeles desde 2020 e depois de anos tentando viabilizar projetos por editais e plataformas, decidiu apostar em uma produção completamente independente.“A gente financiou por conta da nossa produtora, a Seiva, que é a nossa coprodutora no Brasil, e produtores, amigos, próximos passaram o chapéu, todo mundo botou uma grana no filme porque acreditava no projeto e a gente resolveu fazer", diz. Filmado no fim de 2024, em São Paulo, em 17 dias, o roteiro foi desenvolvido ao lado de Kelson Succi, artista vindo do teatro e que também interpreta Antônio. Uma mistura de universos que ajudou a definir o tom do filme em uma produção toda em preto e branco. “Eu adoro trabalhar em preto e branco, fotografo em preto e branco faz muito tempo. Então é algo que consigo trabalhar nessa linguagem com facilidade e de que gosto muito. Dentro da nossa situação de produção, ajuda muito num filme de baixo orçamento, para a gente conseguir fazer, trazer mais valor de produção com menos, conseguir filmar mais rápido com poucos recursos de luz, criar uma situação expressiva interessante”, reitera. Além da trilha sonora (assinada por Kiko Dinucci e arranjo de cordas de Arthur Verocai) também ser peça central da narrativa, costurando realidade e delírio, o filme reúne participações especiais de Antônio Pitanga, Teuda Bara (que faleceu em dezembro), Leci Brandão e Chico César (narração). “O mais difícil foi chegar o roteiro no Pitanga, mas quando chegou, ele leu e curtiu muito. Foi a parte que também deu energia, colocou ainda mais energia. Ele falou que [o roteiro] lembrava dos personagens que fazia nos anos 1960 e 1970 e que estava animado", relembra. Festival alternativo Criado há mais de 30 anos como uma alternativa independente, o Slamdance aconteceu durante décadas simultaneamente ao Festival de Sundance em Park City, aproveitando a concentração de profissionais da indústria que já estavam na cidade nessa época do ano. Mas, a partir de 2025, o festival saiu de Utah e se estabeleceu em Los Angeles, marcando uma nova fase na capital do cinema. “Eu sinto que pra todo mundo com quem eu falo, e que está mais ligado na indústria, esse é um festival que todo mundo curte muito e admira muito, porque é feito com uma curadoria real. É um processo super democrático de pessoas que fazem filmes mesmo e que assistem a todos os filmes e debatem extensivamente o que deve entrar", diz Banzai. Para ele, o momento é propício ao cinema brasileiro, principalmente diante do sucesso de "Ainda Estou Aqui" e "Agente Secreto". “Acho que é algo que a gente pode começar a dar esses passos no Brasil, também, de sair só dos grandes cinco festivais, Cannes, Berlim, Toronto, Oscar e Veneza, e conseguir olhar para outros lugares, que são também super catalisadores de carreiras no mundo todo não só aqui”, diz Thales. Uma coprodução Brasil–Estados Unidos, “Antônio Odisseia”, chega a Los Angeles com apresentações nos dias 23 e 24 de fevereiro dentro da programação do Slamdance Film Festival.

What does it take to break into the trailer business, survive the agency grind, and help shape campaigns for some of the biggest films of the last two decades? This week on Trailer Geeks and Teaser Gods, we sit down with Creative Director, Producer and Creative Executive Kazadi Katambwa to discuss craft, career, and creative instinct. Kazadi walks through his journey from film-loving college student in the Midwest to runner at Wiser Post, to assistant editor at Intralink, and eventually to cutting and producing major theatrical campaigns for films like The Dark Knight, Inception, Dunkirk, Mad Max: Fury Road, and many more. Along the way, the conversation explores the realities of Hollywood career paths, the importance of mentorship, and the delicate art of marketing great movies without getting in their way. Kazadi shares behind-the-scenes stories about working with Christopher Nolan, the challenge of distilling high-concept films into thirty seconds, and the creative leap from editor to producer to studio executive. From humble beginnings with a Thomas Guide in the passenger seat to shaping global campaigns at Amazon Studios, this episode is packed with insight, humor, and hard-earned wisdom for anyone who loves trailers or dreams of making them. Key Takeaways From Runner to Creative Voice Kazadi reflects on starting at the very bottom of post-production and learning the craft by watching great editors work. Patience, curiosity, and a willingness to say yes opened doors that formal plans never could. Reverse Engineering Great Trailers Early on, Kazadi studied timelines and cuts to understand how trailers were built. That hands-on education became the foundation of his editorial instincts. Working on The Dark Knight and Inception Marketing films of that caliber brought unique pressures. Great movies can be harder to market because the campaign must rise to the same level of excellence. Quiet Can Be Louder Than Loud On campaigns like Dunkirk, restraint and confidence became creative tools. Sometimes a simple heartbeat and the right image communicate more than any barrage of sound. The Power of Relationships Career moves from Intralink to Seismic to Buddha Jones happened through trust and collaboration. In trailer marketing, reputation and relationships remain everything. Evolving From Editor to Executive Moving from the editing chair to creative leadership required a new mindset. Protecting the creative while guiding teams became the next chapter of the journey. Understanding Filmmakers Working with directors like Christopher Nolan reinforced a crucial lesson. Great campaigns respect the filmmaker's vision and find ways to amplify it rather than replace it. Notable Quotes "Sometimes marketing a bad movie is hard. But marketing a great movie can be even harder." "Loud is not always the best thing. Quiet can be just as powerful." "Study the timeline. That's where the education really happens." "The best trailers feel confident. You can sense when a campaign is trying too hard." "Relationships are what move careers forward in this town."

On the latest episode of A Life In Movies, the movie interview podcast by All The Right Movies, we're talking to legendary actor James Woods.With a career spanning five decades, James has built a reputation as one of cinema's most compelling performers. An actor drawn to morally complex characters and unafraid to inhabit the darkest corners of human nature. A two-time Academy Award nominee with multiple Emmy wins to his name, his filmography reads like a masterclass in intensity.Speaking to us from Los Angeles, James takes us through the key moments that shaped his remarkable career. From his early days studying Political Science at MIT before the pull of acting proved too strong, to his film debut working with the legendary Elia Kazan. We dive deep into five landmark films: David Cronenberg's prophetic body-horror Videodrome, Sergio Leone's epic Once Upon a Time in America opposite Robert De Niro, Oliver Stone's raw and urgent Salvador (which earned him his first Oscar nomination), the action-comedy The Hard Way with Michael J. Fox, and Martin Scorsese's Casino where he brought the slippery Lester Diamond to unforgettable life.James also shares insights into his approach to those morally ambiguous characters that have become his trademark, his acclaimed television work, the compelling story behind his Executive Producer credit on Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and his most recent artistic endeavour in music. A fascinating conversation with one of American cinema's most distinctive talents.Connect with ATRM: To join our fantastic community of film fans, support what we do, access our archive, listen to exclusive episodes, and a whole lot more, become an ATRM patron:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the ATRM Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ We're available on any podcast platform:Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠We're across all major social channels too:Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ATRightMovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@allthe_rightmovies ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our movie group⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠

Rafael Arinelli, Thiago Muniz, Edu Sacer e Laysa Zanetti se reúnem para dissecar o cardápio cinematográfico de 2026 - e spoiler: tem coisa boa, tem jabá nostalgia e tem Disney espremendo franquia até sair suco de plástico.O papo começa quente com as surpresas de janeiro (quem diria que Extermínio seria surpreendente de verdade?) e segue pelos "oscarizáveis" de fevereiro, incluindo O Morro dos Ventos Uivantes de Emerald Fennell – que promete dividir puristas literários e cinéfilos modernosos. Março traz o possível adeus cinematográfico de Fernanda Montenegro em Velhos Bandidos, enquanto abril entrega o combo nostálgico mais poderoso: O Diabo Veste Prada 2. Meryl Streep voltando para aterrorizar assistentes? That's all.Mas o verdadeiro orgasmo cinéfilo vem em julho com Odisseia, de Christopher Nolan – mitologia grega + IMAX = shut up and take my money.
