Podcast appearances and mentions of Christopher Walken

In this episode, we break down MAN ON FIRE (2004) — Tony Scott's explosive revenge thriller starring Denzel Washington. We dive into the emotional transformation of John Creasy, the bond between Creasy and Pita, and how the film turns vengeance into a story about redemption and sacrifice.We analyze the stylized editing, intense performances, and the raw emotion that makes Man on Fire stand apart from other action films. From its chaotic visual style to its heartbreaking final moments, this is one of the most powerful revenge movies ever made — and we unpack exactly why it still resonates.Chapters:00:00:00 Intro: The insane visual style00:09:42 Dakota Fanning went off in this movie00:19:55 The beauty of this movie00:22:57 How the kidnapping world works00:26:46 A dirty scene they cut from the movie00:30:41 RIP Tony Scott: When art mimics life00:32:18 Southern bell Lisa00:34:56 The insanely dangerous film set00:42:36 Gray's Denzel hot take00:44:28 The funny way Dakota Fanning got emotional on camera00:45:51 Our one complaint with the movie00:48:09 The alternate ending00:53:06 The kidnapping process was accurate00:55:12 Tarantino might be responsible for this movie00:58:12 Christopher Walken just loves to pop in and out01:02:15 Why this movie works so well01:06:34 Why the overt style works so well01:08:04 Our official rating & final thoughts01:13:03 Cue the music

It is finally time to talk about my favorite Christopher Walken movie! Joey C stops by to help me revisit this "theological thriller" from 1995. The movie is about a rogue angel name Gabriel looking for a soul to help him create a new heaven. He has to fight other angels, humans, and the literal devil himself. It's awesome!https://youtu.be/WIQTZyriJbchttps://rumble.com/v75v0jc-the-prophecy-1995-is-a-tense-theological-thriller-hack-the-movies.html

It's Awards Season yet again. Here on the Holmes Movies Podcast that means, it is time for the Alternative Oscars episodes! AKA the Anders and Adam-emy Awards: Each episode for this series we pick a different year in Oscars history and attempt to correct the record, stripping the undeserving of their garlands while recognising those who were cruelly overlooked.This time, we will be casting our eye back to… the 51st Academy Awards. The event celebrated all the films released in the year of 1978. The event was held at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles, California on April 9th 1979. The host was the legendary Johnny Carson.It was a bittersweet ceremony as it was the last public ceremony of The Duke himself John Wayne, who would pass away a few months later from cancer. He was there to announce and give the award for Best Picture. It was also the year when Laurence Olivier was awarded with an Honorary Oscar for his achievements and contribution to screen acting and the art of film. The 51st Academy Awards was the ceremony where Michael Cimino's film The Deer Hunter won big. It was awarded Best Picture and Best Director along with Best Supporting Actor for Christopher Walken. Along with Heaven Can Wait from Warren Beatty and Buck Henry, The Deer Hunter got the most nominations. Did The Deer Hunter deserve Best Picture? And what is up with the person dressing up in a full duck costume? Listen to this episode and see how we would have done things. Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos. The film has been released digitally and also in select cinemas in the US and the UK. In Finland it was released on Apple TV after finishing its limited cinema run and was the Number 1 film for multiple weeks. You can read a review about it here on the Fangoria website. The film is now available to watch in the other Nordic territories like Sweden, Oslo and of course Denmark.

Te invitamos a experimentar un viaje iniciático, comprometido, ilustrado y aventurero a través de las "Hojas del bosque", con su autora, Lucía Triviño, para explorar tu apasionada relación con las arboledas y desentrañar el complejo nudo de ficciones y realidades que lo caracteriza. Desde las historias medievalistas más inesperadas a los Ents de Tolkien, pasando por toda referencia atractiva que tenga que ver con nuestros mundos emboscados. Como dice la botánica Ana Erice en el prólogo a “Las hojas del bosque”, el libro que tanto estábamos esperando de Lucía Triviño publicado por Ariel. Y es que debemos aprender a amar a los bosques con mayor conocimiento de causa. Cultivar un afecto consciente, que se reconozca un poco ciego y enamorado de una entidad que es y será siempre, al menos en parte, ficticia. Con Triviño no desnudaremos a la espesura de sus ricas vestimentas imaginarias, porque conoce bien el valor del mito, de la literatura y de los modelos científicos y lograremos que esa imagen ideal de las forestas en nuestra mente y en nuestro corazón sea también buena para el bosque.Además, las compañeras Biela y Tierra nos traen a “Por un mundo rural vivo” a Aina y Laura de la Red de la Semillas y el proyecto Red Resembrando, para hablar, por fin, de las semillas, del tráfico de semillas, del rescate soberano de las semillas. Hablamos de la película “Percy”, una biografía real, dirigida en 2020 por Clark Johnson y escrita por Garfield Lindsay Miller y Hilary Pryor. Christopher Walken encarna a Percy Schmeiser, un pequeño agricultor septuagenario de Canadá que se enfrenta a la corporación Monsanto después de que sus organismos genéticamente modificados afectan sus cosechas.También hablamos con Héctor Castrillejo, de El Naán de sus últimos trabajos, de La Casa del Baile, su último gran proyecto. Y, claro está, la música corre a cargo, inevitablemente, de la tribu de El Naán. Club de la Hojarasca: Diego RJ, José Manuel Sebastián, Álvaro Soto y Pilar Socorro. Y, ahora, si eres árbol, y si no también, que el hombre te ignore, o como dice Lucía Triviño: "no queramos tanto a los bosques, querámoslos mejor"… Amor incondicional emboscado. Bienvenid@s, por tanto, a un bosque donde entablamos una relación sana que haga justicia a las forestas que amamos. Sin duda, territorio conmovido ¡Arriba las ramas!HT: #LosBosquesDeLuciaRadio3Escuchar audio

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Okie dokey, that's it for Fallout season 2! We thought it was a great season finale, packed to the rads with answers (the Enclave is behind it all, and the President is one of them), more questions (have Hank and Steph been a thing for 200 years or what?), and as f$%ked up and funny as ever.  Thanks from all three of us to everyone for joining us for this series! What a freaking blast it is, right? It was so much fun to cover, and we especially appreciate those of you who wrote and called in (but we love all of ya).  I (Jason) hope you guys all stick around as Karen and I start with Apple TV's Severance next week. We're going back to the beginning and the plan is to cover the whole series, episode-by-episode, spoiler free. What is Severance, you ask? It's a trippy workplace sci-fi thriller where employees surgically split their work and personal memories, creating two separate versions of themselves. It starts as a clever corporate experiment and develops into an unsettling mystery about identity, control, and rebellion. Smart, stylish, funny, and quietly disturbing, with an incredible cast — Adam Scott, Zach Cherry (!), Britt Lower, John Turturro, Christopher Walken, and Patricia Arquette. Hosted by Jason and Karen. And if you're looking for something else to dig into, highly recommend checking out any of the other shows this podcast covers. They are… Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Randy. Come join our Discord and chat with hosts and other listeners:  Don't know what Discord is?

One of the more bizarre projects to come out of a Hollywood studio in the late 1960s, Paint Your Wagon felt like a turning point movie. Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood - and they're both singing? How did that happen? Turns out it's quite a story. Then, ahead of an appearance at the BFI to talk about his work in David Lynch's The Elephant Man, Dexter Fletcher joins Simon for a chat about it.

FROM THE VAULT | Natalie Wood was one of Hollywood's brightest stars - a child actress turned icon whose career spanned decades and generations. But in 1981, her life was cut short under circumstances that remain deeply controversial. When Natalie drowned off the coast of Catalina Island during a weekend aboard a yacht with her husband Robert Wagner and co-star Christopher Walken, questions quickly overshadowed the official explanation.

Originally released on the Now We Know Patreon feed on February 22, 2022 —yet no doubt new to so many of you — we look back at the ill-fated cartoon pilot Defenders of Dynatron City, which boasted the vocal talents of Whoopi Goldberg and Tim Curry, and almost Christopher Walken, until the producer absurdly decided he wanted a "more cartoonish" voice. Part of a cross-platform multimedia rollout, the pilot's release coincided with a very bad video game (atypical of the golden age of LucasArts games) and a six-episode comic series, making it... a proto-Shadows of the Empire, perhaps?

fWotD Episode 3178: Batman Returns Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 16 January 2026, is Batman Returns.Batman Returns is a 1992 American superhero film directed by Tim Burton and written by Daniel Waters. Based on the DC Comics character Batman, it is the sequel to Batman (1989), also directed by Burton, and the second installment in the Batman film series (1989–1997). The cast includes Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Michael Gough, Pat Hingle, and Michael Murphy. Set during Christmas in Gotham City, the film follows Batman (Keaton) as he confronts corrupt businessman Max Shreck (Walken) and deformed crime boss Oswald Cobblepot / the Penguin (DeVito), whose bid for power threatens the city. Their schemes are further complicated by Shreck's former secretary Selina Kyle (Pfeiffer), who seeks revenge against him as Catwoman.Burton was initially uninterested in directing a sequel to Batman, feeling creatively constrained by Warner Bros.' expectations. He agreed to return only after being granted greater creative control, which included replacing original writer Sam Hamm with Daniel Waters and reuniting with many of his previous collaborators. Waters's script emphasized characterization over plot, and Wesley Strick was later hired for an uncredited rewrite that added, among other elements, a master plan for the Penguin. Filming took place from September 1991 to February 1992 on a budget of $50–80 million, primarily on sets and soundstages at Warner Bros. Studios and the Universal Studios Lot in California. The film's special effects relied mainly on practical techniques and makeup, supplemented with animatronics, limited computer-generated imagery (CGI), and dozens of live penguins.The film's marketing campaign was extensive, featuring brand tie-ins and merchandise intended to replicate the financial success of Batman. Released on June 19, 1992, Batman Returns broke several box-office records and grossed $266.8 million worldwide, becoming the sixth-highest-grossing film of 1992, but fell short of Batman in overall success and longevity. The darker tone, along with violent and sexual content, was cited as alienating family audiences and prompted backlash against marketing partners for promoting the film to children. Critical reception was polarized, though most reviewers praised the principal cast.Following the mixed reception of Batman Returns, Burton was replaced as director for its sequel, Batman Forever (1995), which was developed with a more family-friendly tone. Keaton also declined to return. In the years since its release, Batman Returns has been reappraised as one of the strongest Batman films and a pivotal early example of auteur-driven superhero cinema that helped shape the genre's darker, more ambitious direction. The film is also recognized as an alternative Christmas classic due to its winter setting, festive imagery, and themes of loneliness and isolation. Its story was revisited in the comic series Batman '89 (2021), and Keaton later reprised his version of Batman in The Flash (2023).This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:59 UTC on Friday, 16 January 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Batman Returns on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Ruth.

Today on Whats My Frame, I'm joined by Director, Writer, and Producer Stephanie Laing. Stephanie opens up about her creative process and how her dual perspective as both a producer and director strengthens her craft and career. She takes us behind the scenes of Palm Royale, sharing stories from set and what it was like collaborating with comedy legends Kristen Wiig and Carol Burnett. Stephanie also walks us through the journey of bringing her upcoming feature, TOW to the screen. Full Bio:Sundance Alumni Stephanie Laing is an Emmy-winning director, writer, and producer. Laing recently wrapped production on feature film, Tow, under her newly launched Cake or Death Pictures. Tow, which Laing also directs, is the inspirational true story of Amanda Ogle, an unhoused Seattle woman who fought her way out of tow-company hell to reclaim her life and the car that held it all together after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. Tow had its world premiere at the 2025 Tribeca Festival in the Spotlight Narrative film category, and was recently picked up by Roadside Attractions and Vertical for a 2026 theatrical release. Tow stars Rose Byrne as Ogle and currently holds a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Dominic Sessa, Octavia Spencer, Ariana DeBose, and Demi Lovato also star in the film.On the television side, Laing most recently directed 5 episodes on season two of Apple TV's Emmy-nominated series Palm Royale starring Kristen Wiig, Carol Burnett, Allison Janney, Laura Dern, and Ricky Martin, where she also serves as an Executive Producer. This follows her work on season one of the show, where she also directed multiple episodes. Additionally, Laing directed 3 episodes in season one of Apple TV's hit Jon Hamm series Your Friends and Neighbors, and she has directed 6 episodes for the upcoming season two, which she's also an Executive Producer on.

In this Barber's Brief, V and Marc cover the biggest marketing and platform stories from the last couple of weeks—plus introduce a new segment.First up, they unpack why marketers should stop trying to re-label marketing as CapEx, and why misusing finance terms (like ROI) can damage credibility with CFOs. Then they move into search and AI: Google's Danny Sullivan warns publishers not to restructure content into “bite-sized chunks” just to appease AI search—because what works today may not work tomorrow.Next, they revisit Paul Feldwick's classic “message myth” argument: advertising isn't just a rational “message delivery” machine—it's showmanship, emotion, and association-building that shapes preference and memory. Finally, they break down the strategic implications of the Google + Walmart partnership and what it signals about the future of retail discovery, closed-loop measurement, and platform power consolidation.Ad of the Week: Miller Lite starring Christopher Walken, a “masterclass in showing up without shouting,” built around a simple cultural truth: people aren't showing up like they used to—and maybe we should.To close, they preview The Sharp Cut: an upcoming POV episode on one-to-one marketing, mass personalization, and whether the promise is real or overhyped.Listen, share, and stay sharp, everyone!Key TakewaysStop calling marketing “CapEx” to sound finance-savvy. If you misuse accounting language (ROI, CapEx/OpEx), you lose credibility fast—especially with CFOs.Marketing doesn't cleanly fit CapEx logic. Brand value is uncertain, often maintenance-based, and hard to capitalize like a tangible asset.Better move: push for practical governance: separate marketing line items on the P&L, and treat “foundational” work (e.g., rebrand) more like development/R&D where appropriate.Google's warning on AI-era SEO: don't rebuild your site into short “LLM-friendly chunks” just because it may perform temporarily—optimize for humans, not the machine.The “Message Myth” still matters: effective advertising is often less about what it says and more about what it does—creating emotional associations and mental availability.Digital vs. analog communication: boards tend to prefer “digital” (logic, claims, propositions), but “analog” (music, mood, emotion, showmanship) is what drives preference.Google + Walmart = retail discovery power shift. Expect more closed-loop, AI-driven commerce experiences where media, merchandising, and checkout blur together.Ad of the Week insight: sometimes the strongest creative move is restraint—Walken's presence sells “showing up” as a cultural reset, not a hard sell.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Marketing Moments01:14 The Language of Marketing and Finance07:47 Content Strategy in the Age of AI12:51 The Message Myth in Advertising18:57 Google and Walmart's Retail Partnership25:19 Ad of the Week: Miller Lite's Campaign27:43 Upcoming Changes in the PodcastLinks:Marketing is Not CapEx—Stop Saying It Is - https://www.marketingweek.com/marketing-not-capex-ridicule-finance/Google doesn't want you to create bite-sized chunks of your content -...

Will a stacked cast and witty banter give this film an edge? Or will it fall prey to Tarantino Imposter Syndrome? Listen and find out!

A special New Year's Eve treat from Poshlo and Fableck as they attempt to watch the cinematic glory that is Gigli, starring Vagennifer and Benita in an alleged comedy that features truly baffling performances by Justin Bartha and Al Pacino, too much Christopher Walken and nowhere near enough Lanie Kazan.CW: Offensive portrayals of disability, sexuality and gender. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Adam Scott (Severance, Parks and Recreation, Stepbrothers) is an Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated actor and comedian. Adam joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why the era of movies that produced ET, The Goonies, and Temple of Doom means so much to him, how Severance was in such apt alignment with the grief for his mother's death, and the reason playing “fan at bar” is way more embarrassing than “guy at bar.” Adam and Dax talk about a call of the void by licking lead, rebranding artisanal nicotine delivery systems, and the ethical dilemma of whether to sneak a peek at new season episodes. Adam explains sleeping through his first call time on set with John Turturro and Christopher Walken, not knowing where to put what he does to impress his mom once she was gone, and how sharing your insides is a credibly important way to make a difference in the world.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

On the 93rd episode of Bomb Squad Matinee, Tim, Tanner, Joe V, and special guest Mando Franco return to the world of animated Batman films as they discuss Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. How does Batman Beyond's first (and still only) film stack up to the other Batman animated films? What are the major differences between the edited original home video release and the uncut PG-13 version? What was up with Michael Rosenbaum doing a Christopher Walken impression? Tune in to find out!

It's that time of year again—when we gather by the fire, sip something warm, and queue up… movies that *technically* take place at Christmas. This week, we're unwrapping two not-quite-but-definitely-set-during-the-holidays classics: Stanley Kubrick's eerie yuletide odyssey Eyes Wide Shut (1999) and Steven Spielberg's breezy cat-and-mouse charmer Catch Me If You Can (2002). While neither film is exactly “festive,” both use the holiday season to cast their stories in a glow equal parts melancholic and mischievous. Before diving into our gift-wrap-adjacent double feature, our Blue Plate Special is packed with plenty of cinematic goodies waiting under the tree. We break down the eyebrow-raising possibility of Warner Bros. being sold to either Netflix or Paramount/Skydance—and what such a shake-up could mean for the future of the film industry. We also share our thoughts on several recent releases we've caught (Sentimental Value, The History of Sound, Jay Kelly, and Pavements), react to Quentin Tarantino's recent comments about Paul Dano and 21st-century cinema, relive our theatrical experience seeing Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, and pay tribute to the recent losses of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Jim Ward, Jeff Garcia, Peter Greene, and the legendary Rob Reiner.

Lunch-Time Confessions brings some fun as Lopez questions the legitimacy of a Christopher Walken quote

ITL plays a game of “Would You Rather,” debating playoff paths like facing the Patriots in the first round versus the Broncos in Denver, plus roster questions including a fully healthy Nick Chubb for the stretch run or sticking with Woody Marks — and more. Lunch-Time Confessions brings some fun as Lopez questions the legitimacy of a Christopher Walken quote, before Judge John Lopez steps in to rule on the big question: are the Texans truly the second-best team in the AFC?

Welcome to the Video Store Podcast.It's Christmas movie season but not everyone wants peppermint sweetness and cozy small-town charm. Some of us want our holiday movies filled with explosions, heists and a whole lot of chaos.This week on the Video Store Podcast, I'm spotlighting four Christmas movies that trade twinkling lights for trouble. Reindeer Games (2000)Reindeer Games is a crime thriller set days before Christmas. When Rudy Duncan (Ben Affleck) is released from prison his only goal is to get home for Christmas. But when his cell-mate dies, Rudy steps into the man's shoes to meet his mysterious and beautiful pen pal, Ashley (Charlize Theron).One bad decision later and Rudy is trapped in a violent casino-robbery plot run by Ashley's unstable “brother,” Gabriel (Gary Sinise). With no options, Rudy is forced deeper into the operation and nothing is what it seems as alliances shift and lies are uncovered. Reindeer Games brings crime, plot twists and holiday mayhem together in one memorable movie.Batman Returns (1992)Tim Burton's Batman Returns is set against a dark, gothic backdrop of Gotham City during the Christmas season. Batman Returns introduces two iconic villains who become the city's newest threats. The first is Oswald Cobblepot, The Penguin, a physically deformed man who was abandoned by his wealthy parents and raised in the city's sewers by penguins. The second is Selina Kyle, Catwoman, pushed to her limit by evil businessman Max Shreck.Michelle Pfeiffer is the definitive Catwoman, seductive, broken and electric in every frame. Danny DeVito's Penguin is a grotesque and disfigured man, a departure from the comics. Christopher Walken adds a sinister element as the businessman Max Shreck.Tim Burton's vision partnered with Danny Elfman's haunting score creates a mesmerizing Christmas classic set in Gotham City.The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)Samantha Caine (Geena Davis) lives a quiet life as a schoolteacher until a car crash triggers memories of her past life as a deadly government assassin.Samantha hires private detective Mitch Hennessey (Samuel L. Jackson) to help her uncover her past and together they set out to find the truth. Their adventure is full of gunfights, treachery, and some of the best buddy-dynamic chemistry of the '90s. Davis transforms from warm suburban mom to hard-boiled operative with shocking believability and Jackson delivers one of his funniest, most charismatic roles.Written by Shane Black and directed by Renny Harlin, The Long Kiss Goodnight mixes holiday atmosphere with espionage to create one of the 90's most underrated action movies.Lethal Weapon (1987)Lethal Weapon redefined the buddy-cop genre and set the standard for all future buddy-cop movies. Set at Christmastime in Los Angeles, the movie pairs veteran detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) with newcomer Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson). Their investigation into a young woman's suspicious death spirals into a violent clash with drug traffickers and the psychotic Mr. Joshua (Gary Busey).Lethal Weapon is full of heart, which is what you want in a Christmas movie. Riggs who is spiraling out of control from grief and Murtaugh, a grounded family man, form a bond that is convincing from start to finish. Also written by Shane Black, Hollywood's king of Christmas action movies and directed by Richard Donner, Lethal Weapon blends holiday themes with explosive action, dark humor, and iconic one-liners. Lethal Weapon is on of my favorite Christmas action movies.If you're looking for Christmas movies that are filled with action, these four belong at the top of your December movie list.Thanks for visiting the Video Store.

The legend is true. We watched the infamous 2003 bomb "Gigli" so you don't have to, and the reality is somehow worse than the reputation. Starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez at the peak of "Bennifer" mania, this Martin Brest-directed disaster is a baffling mix of mob thriller, offensive rom-com, and unintentional comedy. In this episode, we break down: The cringeworthy plot of a hitman trying to "convert" a lesbian mob enforcer (J.Lo). The controversial and poorly handled portrayal of an intellectually disabled character by Justin Bartha. How studio interference ruined the director's vision, creating a tonally insane mess. Whether this movie truly killed J.Lo's film career and ended Martin Brest's. The random, inexplicable cameos from Al Pacino and Christopher Walken. We answer the question: Is Gigli a so-bad-it's-good classic, or just a painful, offensive relic of 2003? The answer might surprise you (but probably not).

Send us a textRemember Batman Returns starring Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken & Michelle Pfeiffer. Sure, you do. It ushered in a whole era of men wanting their girlfriends or wives to dress up as Catwoman, and it didn't even have to be Halloween. Well, this one takes place over the Christmas Holidays, so we're picking it as a Holiday Film. With an all-star cast, Tim Burton returning, we are signing up to watch '90s Batman fight the Penguin and Catwoman during the Holiday Season, and we'll see if this is a nostalgic gift under the tree or a lump of coal in the stocking. Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

In 2002, Steven Spielberg and Leonardo DiCaprio teamed up for a cat-and-mouse drama with surprising emotional heft. In 2025, Bob and Brad unwrap a Hanksgiving gift of their own: a revisit of Catch Me If You Can paired with the classic blended Scotch, Johnnie Walker Black Label.(0:00) Intro (08:20) Brad Explains (13:15) Performances, Themes (30:28) Johnnie Walker Black Label review (39:55) Two Facts and a Falsehood and Final Analysis (1:08:19) Let's Make it a Double and Final Scores--Bob and Brad return with another Hanksgiving installment, revisiting Steven Spielberg's 2002 biographical caper Catch Me If You Can as part of their Season 10 re-review series. Bob recalls loving the film back in Season 1 but hasn't revisited it in years, while Brad brings fresh eyes (and big feelings) to Spielberg's blend of charm, melancholy, and father-wound storytelling. Together they unpack how the film plays differently after The Fabelmans, why Leonardo DiCaprio's performance might be one of his best, and how Tom Hanks turns a supporting role into one of the most quietly emotional characters of his career.Then, the guys crack open Johnnie Walker Black Label, the iconic 12-year blended Scotch whisky. Is it still the gold standard of affordable scotch—or does it fall short compared to modern favorites like Monkey Shoulder and Chivas Regal? Brad finds more fruit and toffee than Bob does, leading to one of their more divided reviews this season.Along the way, they celebrate Hanksgiving, dive into Spielberg's evolving themes of identity, deception, and family fragmentation, revisit Christopher Walken's unforgettable supporting turn, and explore why Catch Me If You Can might secretly be one of the all-time great Thanksgiving movies.Has it been a while since you revisited Catch Me If You Can?

In this episode of Second Chance Cinema, MC and Spro dig into Suicide Kings — the 1997 crime thriller that blends dark comedy, kidnapping chaos, Christopher Walken coolness, and more plot twists than any film about rich-kid amateurs should legally be allowed to contain. Once dismissed as a Tarantino-wannabe and overshadowed by the decade's heavier hitters, Suicide Kings has since developed a loyal cult following thanks to its razor-sharp dialogue, brisk pacing, and Walken's magnetic, deadpan menace. MC and Spro revisit the film with fresh eyes to ask the big question: Did we judge this movie too harshly the first time around? From its clever structure to its surprisingly emotional center, the guys explore why Suicide Kings may deserve a seat back at the table — or at least a cleaner chair than the one Walken gets taped to. Featuring signature SCC banter, behind-the-scenes nuggets, and the usual dose of nostalgia, this episode is everything you need to reevaluate one of the ‘90s most underrated crime thrillers. #SecondChanceCinema #SCCPodcast #MoviePodcast #SuicideKings #ChristopherWalken #90sMovies #CultClassics #UnderratedMovies #FilmDiscussion #FilmNerd #MovieRewatch #CinemaClub #CrimeThriller #IndieFilm #RetroRewatch #PodcastEpisode #FilmCommunity #MovieBuffs #PodcastersOfInstagram #RewatchPodcast

Click here to try it out!Christopher Walken, Larry Fishburne, and Abel Ferrara's moral abyss of a movie. This week, the dads descend into King of New York, the neon-slick crime drama that turns Manhattan into a fever dream of violence, power, and warped justice.Walken plays Frank White, a freshly released drug lord who wants to “give back” — but only by murdering every rival and funding a hospital with blood money. His crew? Mostly Black. His moral compass? Bent beyond repair. His dance moves? Still pure Walken.What we coverCrime and capitalism: Frank's twisted logic — kill the competition, save the city.The Walken mystique: Dead eyes, slick hair, spontaneous robot dances.Larry Fishburne's “Jimmy Jump”: One of the great chaotic sidekicks — all swagger, coke, and AK-47s.Cops vs crooks: Caruso and Snipes as furious detectives who decide to skip due process and go full vigilante.Ferrara's vision: A New York that's nihilistic, sweaty, and corrupt from top to bottom.The politics of power: Race, class, loyalty, and the delusion of doing “good” through evil.The ending: Blood, subways, and one of Walken's best death scenes — calm, eerie, inevitable.Why listen?Because it's peak Bad Dads territory: a film that's stylish, sleazy, and morally bankrupt, yet impossible to look away from. We argue about whether Frank's warped Robin Hood act has any truth to it, trade notes on 1990s cop-movie chaos, and try to work out how this didn't end every actor's career.

Frank White (Christopher Walken) is a drug kingpin who just got out of prison and is eager to restart his criminal enterprise with his long-term lietenant Jimmy Jump (Laurence Fishburne) helping to lead the way.  And off the bat, he goes hard after every rival gang and starts to see success.....only there's crew of NYPD cops who are after him lead by Roy Bishop (Victor Argo) and they're getting close.  And what results is a hyper-violent crime drama featuring an all-star cast including David Caruso, Wesley Snipes, Giancarlo Esposito, and Steve Buscemi.  Directed by New York legend and long-timer indie auteur Abel Ferrara (Bad Lieutenant, Ms. 45), this came out in the Fall of 1990 amidst a glut of more celebrated gangster movies (Goodfellas, Miller's Crossing, New Jack City) so it got lost in the shuffle but it has since gone on to develop a devoted cult following.  So let's head back to the mean streets of late '80's New York and find out....who becomes The King! Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Hey Strangers! Daisy was recently on an episode of What Went Wrong. Here's a snippet of that episode. For the full thing, visit: What Went Wrong, or find it wherever you get your podcasts!   When Natalie Wood drowned in 1981 she was only 43 years old. Thanks to films like ‘West Side Story', ‘Rebel Without a Cause', and ‘Miracle on 34th Street' she was an icon, but she'd been out of the spotlight for almost a decade. Wood was in the midst of filming her comeback, ‘Brainstorm', when she, her co-star Christopher Walken, and her husband Robert Wagner took their yacht out for Thanksgiving weekend. What happened that night depends on who you ask… and when you ask them. Join Chris, Lizzie, and special guest Daisy Eagan from Strange and Unexplained for the first episode of our bonus series 'Out of Frame' where we'll investigate the darker, more obscure corners of Hollywood history. In this episode we'll find out if Wood's death sank her final film, or if ‘Brainstorm' had something to do with her death.

Nick welcomes TV critic Dan Fienberg back to the podcast for another round of smart, funny, and slightly unhinged TV talk. The two cover everything from Dan's unwavering loyalty to The Simpsons to his unapologetic dislike of Seinfeld, plus a look at the latest SNL hosted by Sabrina Carpenter. Dan also reviews several new shows, including the Stephen King prequel miniseries “It: Welcome to Derry,” the cringe-comedy “The Chair Company” from Tim Robinson, and the unexpectedly gripping true-crime series “Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy.” Then Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to dissect one of Hollywood's biggest misfires, “Wild, Wild West,” before diving into a celebration of cinema's most delightfully eccentric performers — Christopher Walken, Crispin Glover, Sean Young, Willem Dafoe, Malcolm McDowell, and the incomparable Tilda Swinton.

Zo goes on a trip to experience the quiet desert lifestyle in the Midwest. In a small town he hears strange rumors of men perched on the edge of buildings like birds, a dead body of a hermaphroditic man with no eyes, and a little girl who draws pictures of impaled men. The vibe of this place is all off, and Zo finds himself uneasy and unsettled. The least credible rumor of all is that there is a war in hoven ven and that the war had spilled on to Earth. Are there Heavenly angels fighting in the streets? Angels are said to look over us, but they are also sent to kill us by the dozens if they were commanded to . . . Episode Chapters00:04:04 Opening Credits for The Prophecy starring Christopher Walken, Elias ioteas, and Virginia Madson00:13:16 Favorite Parts of the 1995 film The Prophecy01:06:46 Trivia from the religious horror The Prophecy01:16:12 Critics' Thoughts on Gregory Widen's The Prophecy 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.

Nick reunites with film critics Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy to catch up on Steve's trip to Fantastic Fest, talk box office trends, and review new releases including Tron: Ares, The Kiss of the Spider Woman starring Jennifer Lopez, Roofman with Channing Tatum, and a heartfelt new documentary about John Candy. Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to dive into the bizarre world of Billy Corgan's $20 Goth Smoothie, the nostalgia of those old “Scary Sounds” Halloween CDs, and memories of Erehwon mountain stores at the mall. They also swap stories about some of Hollywood's most misguided side projects—from James Caan's Sicilian Vampire to Marlon Brando in drag and Christopher Walken partying with The Country Bears Jamboree.
