"Here's the story of a lovely couple Who are in a cool band they call doubleVee Allan & Barb Vest went on a podcast To discuss bands that are family. Here's the story of a groovy podcast, Hosted by two guys named Uncle Gregg and Brett They were diving deep through all the records Mostly classic alternative Til the one day when the Lads met the Vests And they knew it was much more than a fad That this group must somehow form a top five list That's the way we do it on Only Three Lads Only Three Lads Only Three Lads That's the way we do it on Only Three Lads!" That's right - the focus of this week's episode is on bands containing siblings, married couples, cousins, etc.  Coincidentally - actually, it's totally NOT a coincidence - our Third Lads today are the Oklahoma-based married couple, Allan & Barb Vest, who make up the band doubleVee.  Allan was previously primary songwriter, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist for one of the best left-of-center indie pop bands of the early 2000s, Starlight Mints, who released four albums during the first decade of the new millennium.   Barb's history notably includes writing, hosting and producing the nationally syndicated film soundtrack radio programFilmscapes, as well as editing a music webzine and performing with various bands.  Together as doubleVee, Allan & Barb have crafted some astounding and wildly inventive music - the highly recommended debut concept album The Moonlit Fables of Jack the Rider in 2017, the 2019 EP, the 2022 record Treat Her Strangely (containing "Your Love Is It Real?" as heard on the hit Netflix series Wednesday), and now the newly released EP Periscope At Midnight.  The music of doubleVee is a wonderful and beguiling thing - comfortingly poppy but with plenty of strange twists, turns and detours along the way.  Cinematic music with a keen and often whimsical eye for storytelling, doubleVee's songs are beautiful and orchestral, but leaves you with the unsettling feeling that something grotesque may be bubbling underneath the surface.  Thanks to Howard Wuelfing for the introduction and coordination!

Tra i molti generi cinematografici, l'Horror è uno dei pochi a mantenere sempre e comunque una certa attrattiva che porta sempre e comunque il pubblico davanti al grande schermo. La verità è che l'orrore è una delle sensazioni primordiali più difficili da combattere e forse solo al Cinema è possibile esorcizzarlo.Ecco a voi le storie horror cinematografiche degne di nota per provare terrore, disgusto oppure desolazione.Avendo capito la formula da presentare al pubblico e abbandonato qualsiasi riferimento al film originale di Wes Craven, "Nightmare 4-Il non risveglio" porta avanti la storia del demoniaco Freddy Krueger a caccia di nuove vittime e pronto a popolare i loro incubi.01.

In this episode I am once again joined by Duncan Barford, occult practitioner, counsellor, and author of “Occult Experiments in the Home”. Duncan begins with an analysis of the 2016 film, “A Dark Song”, which he believes is the most accurate depiction of occult practice in cinema. Duncan details the plot, breaks down its depictions of ritual, and shares his own emotional reaction to the film's climax. Duncan then shifts gear and gives a detailed explanation of the infamous Abramelin ritual, a multi-month ritual considered by many to be the most ambitious working a magician can attempt. Duncan gives a survey of the major written accounts of those who have attempted it including Aleister Crowley, Lionel Snell, and William Bloom; reveals why the ritual has such a high failure rate; and shares what he believes is the key to success. Duncan also analyses the esoteric structure of Coleridge's poem “Rime of the Ancient Mariner” and interprets it as a description of the spiritual path, proposes an equivalency between success in the Abramelin and Buddhist stream entry, and reveals why he believes the study of history is an obstacle to magickal success. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep336-the-magick-of-abramelin-duncan-barford-3 Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:28 - The Magick of A Dark Song 02:45 - The film 04:41 - The Abramelin Ritual 07:23 - Cinematic depictions of magick 08:04 - Spoiler warnings and the plot 08:24 - Hiring the magician 10:03 - Sophia's motive for the ritual 11:36 - A deep understanding of how ritual works 14:40 - Describing the magickal working 17:04 - Meeting the Holy Guardian Angel 21:01 - The practitioner's journey 25:58 - Characer arcs 30:03 - The key of devotion 33:02 - The esoteric structure of Coleridge's “Rime of the Ancient Mariner” 33:34 - The cycle of insight 38:37 - Crisis, breakthrough, ordeal, union 43:38 - Unsettling themes 44:12 - Interventus Caninus 44:57 - What next after absolution? 45:33 - What is the point of the Abramelin Ritual? 46:46 - Reflecting on the ending of the film 49:39 - Crowley, Snell, Bloom, and Katz - those who attempted the Abramelin 49:54 - Mysterious history of the Abramelin Ritual 52:39 - Recensions of the Abramelin 53:56 - Duncan describes the Abramelin text and ritual 01:00:20 - Why does the Abramelin ritual have such a high failure rate? 01:02:12 - Meeting Lionel Snell 01:04:51 - A tarot reading and why history is an obstacle to real magick 01:06:53 - Daniel Ingram's revision of traditional fire kasina meditation 01:11:00 - Crowley's attempts at the Abramelin ritual 01:14:37 - Other accounts 01:16:40 - William Bloom's attempt 01:20:45 - Secret to success with the Abramelin Ritual 01:24:13 - How to increase the success rate of rituals 01:29:18 - Are you ready to attempt the Abramelin? 01:31:52 - Stream entry and Abramelin 01:34:35 - Duncan reflects on his past claims to attainment 01:37:16 - Questioning pragmatic dharma assumptions and the vogue of stream entry 01:41:00 - Insider vs outsider views 01:42:13 - Does magick really work? 01:43:31 - A story of powerful magickal effects

Movie of the Year: 1971McCabe and Mrs. MillerMcCabe and Mrs Miller and the Birth of the Revisionist WesternIn this episode of Movie of the Year, Ryan, Greg, and Mike dive into McCabe and Mrs Miller, one of the most enduring and atmospheric films of the 1970s. Hailed as a defining entry in The Revisionist Western, Robert Altman's subversive frontier tale reshaped the genre with its melancholy tone, snowy landscapes, and the unforgettable chemistry of Beatty and Christie.More than 50 years later, McCabe and Mrs Miller still captivates audiences with its blending of realism, capitalism, romance, and tragedy. The Taste Buds explore how the film dismantles the myth of the cowboy and replaces it with something far more human — and far more haunting.McCabe and Mrs Miller and the Evolution of The Revisionist WesternAs one of the foundational films of The Revisionist Western, McCabe and Mrs Miller stands in opposition to classic Hollywood frontier mythology. Instead of rugged heroes conquering the wilderness, Altman gives us a world where power is fragile, capitalism is violent, and survival depends less on grit and more on negotiation, luck, and vulnerability.The Taste Buds analyze how the film:challenges Western tropes through vulnerability instead of bravadoreplaces heroic gunfights with corporate brutalityforegrounds community, compromise, and human frailtyuses McCabe's tragic arc to critique capitalist expansionThis isn't the West as legend — it's the West as lived experience.Robert Altman and Gordon Willis: Sound, Snow, and Cinematic SubversionMcCabe and Mrs Miller bears the unmistakable imprint of Robert Altman, whose improvisational direction and overlapping soundscape helped reinvent American cinema in the 1970s. Working with cinematographer Gordon Willis, known for his moody, shadow-rich images, Altman transforms the Western into a dreamlike, fog-drenched meditation.The Taste Buds highlight how Altman and Willis shape the film's signature aesthetic:Overlapping dialogue and naturalistic sound that create a bustling, lived-in communityDiffused, foggy lighting and filters that give the film its iconic “sepia snowdream” lookLong, drifting shots that emphasize the vulnerability of characters lost in a harsh landscapeLeonard Cohen's mournful soundtrack, underscoring the film's quiet despairAltman and Willis built not just a Western — but a world.Beatty and Christie: The Heart of McCabe and Mrs MillerAt the emotional center of the film are Warren Beatty and Julie Christie, whose complex, understated dynamic elevates McCabe and Mrs Miller into something approaching tragic romance.The Taste Buds explore:Beatty's portrayal of McCabe as a man confused by his own legendChristie's luminous, grounded performance as Mrs. Miller — the true brains of the operationThe subversion of the “cowboy and madam” tropeTheir crackling chemistry and the off-screen relationship that deepened their on-screen connectionTogether, Beatty and Christie redefine intimacy within the Western genre, offering partnership instead of power fantasy.Themes of McCabe and Mrs Miller: Capitalism, Community, and ControlRyan, Greg, and Mike unpack the themes that give McCabe and Mrs Miller its enduring...

Madeline, Emilio, and Julian continue their seasonal cycle of Unorthodox Holiday Movies with a discussion about "Eyes Wide Shut," Stanley Kubrick's enigmatic final feature from 1999. Marking their first discussion about a Kubrick film, the trio take an appropriately late-at-night stroll journey through the many layers of EWS, including its touches of dream logic, commentary on class and wealth, and what the film has to say about observation and participation in potential acts of transgression, romantic and otherwise. Also along the way are nods to the film's admirable fake New York City, musician-specific considerations about gigs akin to one taken by character Nick Nightingale, and a shout-out to friend-of-the-show Jamie Homs, originally slated to be the guest for this episode.     If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.  This really helps us find new listeners and grow!Follow us on IG and TikTok: @sleeplesscinematicpodSend us an email at sleeplesscinematicpod@gmail.comOn Letterboxd?

Klipsun now introduces his new aesthetic with Iboga and steps into the void with a bold and twisted re-imagination of Electrypnose's Gentle Frightscaping. This reinterpretation doesn't just flip the script - it dissolves it entirely. Cinematic, warped, loopy, and richly psychedelic, the track spirals through unexpected turns and playful distortions, all while maintaining a hypnotic groove that keeps the mind wide open. A creative trip deep into the funhouse mirror of sound. Strange, imaginative, and irresistibly trippy - just the way we like it on Iboga.

Observational Cinematic Compulsion Disorder, or OCCD, is a common behavioral condition characterized by involuntary ocular fixation on a neighbor's in-flight audiovisual LCD display, even in the absence of accompanying auditory stimuli. Patients with OCCD exhibit vastly impaired concentration filtration, resulting in reflexive visual tracking of narrative cinematic sequences presented on adjacent personal screens during commercial air travel. The disorder is frequently associated with heightened situational distractibility, transient dissociative drift, and a paradoxical increase in attentional salience toward media not voluntarily selected by the patient. Management of OCCD involves admission to a 19th-century gothic asylum in upstate New York, with current clinical guidelines emphasizing electroconvulsive therapy administered on a daily basis, leading to a positive outcome of preemptive engagement with self-selected entertainment to mitigate cross-screen visual intrusion.

Drew and Rory start with eyeball horror, Stranger Things hype, and the idea of AI-powered contact lenses before stumbling straight into the real mind-melt: Midjourney, Grok Imagine, Mystic 3, and Flux all colliding in one episode. They roast their own prompts, trigger an accidental NSF-DoubleU moment live inside Grok, argue about “flux face,” and still somehow manage to pull out real, practical tips for people trying to make better AI images without losing their minds.Across an hour of chaos, they unpack Midjourney v8's subtle shifts, hidden personalization signals, Style Explorer tricks, Smart Search shortcuts, Grok's Sora-style infinite feed, Mystic 3's scary-good skin detail, and why Midjourney still owns lo-fi, lived-in, “shot-on-a-phone” energy. If you care about composition, cinematic ratios, editorial portraits, food realism, or just want to hear two people dunk on Flux and node editors while actually teaching you something, this one hits.Listeners will come away knowing how to use stills archive for composition, when to skip upscales for more analog realism, how Grok Imagine's image + video workflow really behaves, and where Mystic 3 can replace Midjourney in a serious portrait or product stack.--⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour0:00 Intro, eyeballs, and a Friday brain check2:05 Contact lens horror stories, Mission Impossible, Black Mirror eyes3:07 Stranger Things Season 5 hype and binge vs weekly TV4:51 Movies, biopics, sports docs, and couch season setting in6:23 Cowboys documentary, sports pipelines, and TV as passive story feed7:00 AI overload, nobody keeping up, and why this pod exists8:30 Midjourney profiles, Style Creator, and new personalization talk9:29 Like/dislike buttons as hidden training data and 7:3 aspect ratio love10:35 Stills Archive, cinematic framing, and cleaner compositions12:00 Style Explorer vs old-school SREF and what quietly vanished13:16 Three under-the-radar Midjourney Smart Search + right-click + Option-upscale tweaks15:35 V8, fewer wall-of-text prompts, and a move toward visual controls18:12 First look at Grok Imagine's interface and infinite scroll feel19:35 Sora-style endless bottom feed, variants, and “make video” in Grok22:51 Cinematic looks, color grading, and Grok as “idea and curate” engine24:19 Live NSFW surprise inside Grok Imagine and instant rating change25:23 Finding Grok history, stills, and video exports with sound26:31 Who actually gets Grok video and Drew's first real reaction to using it27:38 Mystic 3 enters the chat and upscaling less for analog vibes29:02 Why “too sharp” screams AI and how grain + smart detail saves realism30:18 Outpainting, editing, and why Midjourney still wins surgical compositing35:01 Mystic 3 V3 screen-share and first impressions35:45 Editorial portraits, skin detail, eyelashes, and hands that finally look human37:26 Mystic 3 model comparisons: Zen, State-of-the-Art, and weird description blur39:16 Zooming all the way into pores, fingerprints, and micro skin texture43:44 Cocktail and food prompts where Mystic falls behind Midjourney50:05 Nano Banana 2 rumors, native 4K wishes, and how Midjourney might respond50:58 Why Midjourney still rules lo-fi, disposable camera, and Polaroid-style shots52:16 Grok Imagine vs Flux vs Midjourney for lived-in Y2K flash photos53:39 Flux face, direct flash tests, and “go flux yourself” is born55:30 Nodes, Grok workflows, and why scrolling is faster than wiring graphs56:01 Why Midjourney is avoiding node-based interfaces on purpose57:05 Final sendoff: go flux yourself and get out of here

#190 - What if you could trade flat maps and footnotes for sunrise on Sinai and sea spray in your face as you approach a harbor Paul once saw? That's the world filmmaker Craig Dehut invites us into—where sacred places become cinematic classrooms and faith is strengthened by seeing.Craig shares how Appian Media grew from a coffee-shop idea to a nonprofit producing free, high-quality Bible documentaries viewed more than 20 million times in over 160 countries. We dig into the nuts and bolts: small teams hauling Sony rigs, drones, and audio kits through Israel, Egypt, Turkey, and Greece; the scramble for permits that can change by sunset; and the art of capturing clean, honest moments among crowds at sites like the Church of the Nativity. Craig explains why their films lean into archaeology, geography, and culture—so viewers can picture Capernaum's streets, feel the Valley of Elah's creek bed, and re-read Scripture with sharper eyes.Beyond craft, we talk impact. Homeschool families use the series as living curriculum. Skeptics come for history and stay for the evidence. Teachers cue clips, kids ask to binge-read First Samuel, and lifelong believers say they finally “saw” Jerusalem. Craig opens up about the editing grind, the joy and exhaustion of 16-hour field days, and a bold ten-year plan to build a Genesis-to-Revelation visual journey. The goal is simple and ambitious: help people read better by helping them see better—turning the lands of the Bible into accessible, vivid learning for everyone.Watch the documentaries on YouTube, explore resources at AppianMedia.org, and if the mission resonates, consider supporting monthly to fuel future trips and post-production.

The Cinematic Schematic is back with another special “on the road” edition to review Now You See Me, Now You Don't. It's been 12 years since the social justice magician troupe, the Four Horsemen (played by Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, and Dave Franco), made their big-screen debut in 2013. The “Ocean's Eleven with magicians” heist thriller may have been a relative dud with critics, but that didn't stop it from being a box office hit. The first film grossed $351 million worldwide and spawned a sequel, Now You See Me 2, which also performed similarly in 2016. The world has changed since 2016. There's been a global pandemic, two new presidencies, and TikTok and AI have changed the world of social media. Does the franchise still have the magic to dazzle audiences, or has the world moved on to new tricks? Hosts Caleb Masters and Laron Chapman each offer their quick reviews, providing a verdict to end each segment. Listen to decide whether this is worth your time. About Now You See Me, Now You Don't According to IMDB, About Now You See Me, Now You Don't is described as: A diamond heist reunites retired Horsemen illusionists with new performers […] The post Bonus Review: Now You See Me, Now You Don't – The Cinematic Schematic appeared first on The Cinematropolis.

Dani Dufresne is an Emmy-winning producer and founder of The Aux Co, bringing over a decade of experience cleaning up creative disasters for major brands. In this episode, we explore why beautiful, expensive productions often deliver empty results and how production expertise at the beginning—not the end—of creative development changes everything.Dani's journey from film school to becoming a fractional executive producer reveals a fundamental flaw in how agencies and brands approach creative: they develop the idea first, then figure out how to produce it. This backwards process leads to blown budgets, compromised creative, and campaigns that look stunning but deliver nothing.The Movie Poster Test: If you can't explain your brand message in one sentence, your creative has already failedWhy agencies fail: The fatal flaw of developing creative without production expertise in the roomAI's brutal exposure: How artificial intelligence revealed $25 million in wasted programmatic ad spend from Q2 aloneCommunity vs influencers: Why borrowing audiences through influencer marketing is dying, and authentic community building is the futureThe burnout trap: How being the "problem solver" trains clients to only call you when things breakCinematic storytelling trends: The rise of MOS (music-only) filmmaking and why vintage/Y2K aesthetics signal authenticityFractional production model: How The Aux Co embeds expertise into agency teams without the overheadSimplicity wins: Why attention spans demand one-sentence messaging, not 50-page decksTimestamps:00:00 – Film school journey & production company origins02:47 – Transition from film editing to production work03:32 – Discovering producer role through problem-solving06:24 – Film development to advertising pivot07:36 – Agency vs production company dynamics08:36 – Founding The Aux Co as fractional production team10:50 – Building trust through small wins approach11:32 – Early involvement prevents costly mistakes13:11 – Results-focused creative evaluation14:40 – Longer-form branded entertainment opportunity15:54 – Community building over influencer borrowing17:52 – AI enabling real human connection work18:24 – Programmatic ad waste analysis ($25M Q2)19:28 – Vintage/Y2K aesthetic as authenticity signal21:01 – AI for rapid ideation & creative iteration22:43 – Cinematic storytelling & MOS filmmaking trend26:28 – Simplicity as ultimate creative power29:41 – Attention span decline requiring simple messaging31:33 – Evolution of director vs agency creative roles34:22 – Fractional executive producer model breakdown37:12 – Managing burnout & client selectivity38:23 – Letting go of problem-only clients40:56 – Partner dynamics & production software ventureWe explore the dramatic shift from influencer marketing to community building, the role AI plays in exposing waste and enabling genuine human connection, and why the most powerful creative ideas pass the "movie poster test"—explainable in a single sentence.If your brand message takes more than one sentence to explain, you don't have a creative problem—you have a clarity problem. The best ideas are simple enough to fit on a movie poster, powerful enough to drive results, and honest enough to build real community. Stop developing creative in a vacuum and bring production expertise to the table from day one.Enjoyed this episode? Subscribe to Drop The Mic and leave a review!

Julian, Madeline, and Emilio are rejoined by Brendan McDonald, former producer of the iconic podcast WTF with Marc Maron, for a bonus episode about Paul Thomas Anderson's latest masterpiece, One Battle After Another. Kicking off with a check-in on Brendan's life following WTF's end this past October, the group roll through the many hills of PTA's new film, including its roots in Thomas Pynchon's novel Vineland, numerous thematic and aesthetic connections to his greater filmography, and its balancing of political commentary and the personal struggles that coincide. Much time is also spent praising of the film's phenomenal cast, be it Leonardo DiCaprio delivering comic and dramatic beats with equal prowess, Chase Infiniti commanding the screen with her evocative breakout performance, or Teyana Taylor using limited screentime to maximal effect, among other examples. Keeping track of the time and remembering the password, with or without format punch-cards, the group draw from their many combined viewings to highlight a film that truly shines like a beacon with its expansive worldview, sincerity, and attention to detail in the uncertainty-laden present of 2025. Listen to the WTF archives and look back on the podcast's legacy at wtfpod.com.If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.  This really helps us find new listeners and grow!Follow us on IG and TikTok: @sleeplesscinematicpodSend us an email at sleeplesscinematicpod@gmail.comOn Letterboxd?

The Matrix at Cosm in LA opened on June 6th, 2025, which leverages Cosm's 87-foot, 12K+ LED immersive dome to show this classic film within a 16x9 frame while the additional space beyond the frame was filled with over 50 different scenes thereby expanding the worldbuilding beyond the frame. I finally had a chance to see it last month, and was really impressed with how much this additional space was able to increase the level of immersion, to amplify key emotional beats within the film, and create some truly awe-inspiring moments. I had a chance to speak with Alexis Scalice, Cosm's vice president of business development and entertainment, about Cosm's collaboration with Little Cinema, MakeMake, and Warner Brothers to launch their inaugural "Cinematic Shared Reality" immersive experience. The Matrix has a few more weeks of screenings before their second film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) opens on November 21, 2025. You can also hear more context from in Noah Nelson's No Proscencium podcast interview with Little Cinema's Jay Rinsky conducted ahead of the world premiere. And I also share some impressions of the two enhanced cinema productions of The Black Phone and M3GAN within Blumhouse Enhanced Cinema Quest App. These films have some similarities to what The Matrix at Cosm is doing, but at a much smaller scale and not nearly as effective as the expanded immersive worldbuilding in one of the greatest science fiction films of all time. The Matrix at Cosm is setting a quality high bar for this type of format that is going to be difficult to match. You can see more context in the rough transcript below.
