In this episode of Cracking the Code of Spy Movies, Dan and Tom uncover the hidden history of pre-title sequences long before James Bond ever ordered a martini. We look at pre-title sequences – before James Bond and Beyond. Although the 007 franchise made the pre-title or "cold open" world-famous, it certainly didn't invent the idea. Today, we take you on a deep, cinematic journey exploring when pre-title sequences really began, how filmmakers used them, and why they evolved into one of the most iconic elements of modern filmmaking. What we examine: We break down pre-title sequences starting in the 1930s through more modern movies, including film noir innovations, experimental openings from classic Hollywood, and surprising influences that shaped the James Bond formula. You'll hear examples from Double Indemnity, The Killers, D.O.A., The Great Train Robbery, Citizen Kane, Casablanca, North by Northwest, Psycho, and more. We even examine the fascinating proto-Bond styles found in Viennese Nights (1930), The Public Enemy, King Kong, and other early films that used storytelling before the title card. Then we explore how EON Productions transformed the cold open into a cinematic event. Starting with From Russia with Love (1963), the Bond franchise turned the pre-title sequence into a mini-story before the story, complete with action, intrigue, a fake-out death, and a seamless transition into the iconic Bond title design. Movies like Goldfinger perfected the formula, cementing the expectation that every Bond film begins with a thrilling pre-title mission. We also identify earlier cinematic influences on the Bond gun-barrel sequence. This includes the 1934 film Crime Without Passion and the legendary ending of The Great Train Robbery. Finally, we look at how James Bond's success inspired other genres such as action, horror, and thrillers. We even look at television shows like Mission: Impossible and The X-Files. This is to demonstrate how these shows and movies embrace the cold open as a storytelling weapon. If you love movie history, spy films, James Bond, or filmmaking craft, this episode is packed with insights, references, and fun analysis. Tell us what you think about our decoding of pre-title sequences – before James Bond and beyond? Did you already know this history?  Did we miss anything?

Mit einem Fragebogen bewaffnet, haben die Kollektivmitglieder des Theaterensembles Citizen.KANE.Kollektiv die Eltern der jeweils anderen besucht. „Dickes Blut“ erzählt diese Geschichten in einer großen bunten Familienfeier.

par Benoit Basirico Cinezik Radio sur Cinezik.fr A l'occasion de la rétrospective que lui consacre la Cinémathèque Française du 8 octobre 2025 au 11 janvier 2026, voici notre plongée dans l'univers sonore d'Orson Welles, un véritable architecte du son, au fil d'une carrière faite de génie et de conflits avec les studios, autour de chefs-d'œuvre comme “Citizen Kane”, “La Soif du Mal” et “Falstaff”. Des partitions conçues autour de motifs récurrents et d'orchestrations sombres (Bernard Herrmann), d'ambiances jazz vénéneuses émanant des juke-box (Henry Mancini), de thèmes mélancoliques remixés et fragmentés par le réalisateur lui-même (Paul Misraki), de musiques torturées pour exprimer l'oppression (Jean Ledrut dans Le Procès), de nappes sonores vibrantes et nerveuses (Angelo Francesco Lavagnino) et de jazz espiègle ou atonal (Michel Legrand). Se croisent la révolution du film noir (Citizen Kane, La Dame de Shanghai), l'adaptation radicale des tragédies shakespeariennes (Macbeth, Othello, Falstaff), le cauchemar bureaucratique kafkaïen (Le Procès) et les essais-documentaires vertigineux (Vérités et Mensonges), témoignant de la quête perpétuelle de contrôle artistique de ce géant du cinéma. Programme des B.O : De l'autre côté du vent (Orson Welles, 2018) - Michel Legrand Vérités et Mensonges (Orson Welles, 1973) - Michel Legrand La Soif du Mal (Orson Welles, 1958) - Henry Mancini Le Procès (Orson Welles, 1962) - Jean Ledrut Citizen Kane (Orson Welles, 1941) - Bernard Herrmann La Splendeur des Amberson (Orson Welles, 1942) - Bernard Herrmann Le Criminel (Orson Welles, 1946) - Bronisław Kaper La Dame de Shanghai (Orson Welles, 1947) - Heinz Roemheld Macbeth (Orson Welles, 1948) - Jacques Ibert Othello (Orson Welles, 1951) - Angelo Francesco Lavagnino & Alberto Barberis Dossier Secret (Orson Welles, 1955) - Paul Misraki Falstaff (Orson Welles, 1965) - Angelo Francesco Lavagnino Le Troisième Homme (Carol Reed, 1949) - Anton Karas It's All True (Orson Welles (reconstruit), 1993) - Jorge Arriagada Too Much Johnson (Orson Welles, 1938) - Paul Bowles

Über keinen Film wurde so viel geschrieben wie über „Citizen Kane“. Orson Welles kam eigentlich vom Radio und Theater, das Studio aber ließ ihm, dem Debüttanten, freie Hand und gab ihm ein hohes Budget. Welles drehte durchaus einen #Hollywood-Film, jedoch den untypischsten, den man sich vorstellen kann. Wir müssen „Citizen Kane“ in erster Linie als einen Film begreifen, der Filmkritik in filmischer Form liefert. Nicht vergleichbar ist der Klassiker mit den Werken der russischen Formalisten, Disga Wertow oder Sergej Eisenstein beschritten völlig andere Wege. #OrsonWelles und sein Co-Drehbuchautor Herman J. Mankiewicz, genannt #Mank, lösen sich keineswegs komplett von der US-amerikanischen Erzählweise, aber sie führen diese auf eine andere Ebene, hinterfragen Klischees und Konventionen. „Citizen Kane“ ist auch der ideale Film für jene, die Filmemacher oder Drehbuchautoren werden wollen, denn sie sehen hier, was alles möglich ist – und wie wenig davon in heutigen Serien- und Filmproduktionen gewagt wird.

Rosebud was the name of Citizen Kane's childhood sled, an emblem of simpler days, a symbol of a time when he knew joy, safety, and belonging. What makes that symbol powerful is not its sentimental value. It is what it represents: the longing for a spiritual home.

Es ist es lange her, dass #DavidFincher sehenswerte Filme gedreht hat. „Sieben“, „Fight Club“ und „The Social Network“ liegen weit zurück. Jetzt ist der einst so gefeierte und oft überschätzte Regisseur mit einem Herzensprojekt zurück: „Mank“ ist ein Film über den heute fast vergessenen Drehbuchautor Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) und dessen Bedeutung für den Klassiker #CitizenKane. Vor knapp 50 Jahren trat die berühmte Filmkritikerin Pauline Kael eine Debatte unter Filmwissenschaftlern und Filmkritikern los, indem sie kräftig und polemisch an der Autorenfilmtheorie rüttelte, die wiederum entscheidend auf den französischen Filmtheoretiker André Bazin zurückgeht. Bazin sah in #OrsonWelles den genialen Autorenfilmer, dem es trotz Hollywoods Studiosystem gelungen sei, seine persönliche Vision auf der Leinwand zu verwirklichen. Kael aber verschob den Fokus auf Co-Drehbuchautor Mank, sein Anteil an dem Meisterwerk sei immens groß. Vom einsamen Genie Welles könne nicht länger die Rede sein. Diese Fokusverschiebung überführt Fincher nun bei Netflix in einen 130-minütigen Schwarz/Weiß-Film, der das alte Hollywood wieder aufleben lässt und die Entstehungsgeschichte von „Citizen Kane“ zu erzählen versucht. Das Resultat: der langweiligste Film aller Zeiten. Mehr dazu von Wolfgang M. Schmitt im Video!Die Filmanalyse +ABO gibt es bei Steady als Monats- und vergünstigtes Jahresabo.

Pete and Hannah have worked their way from 100 all the way to the top, and now they're closing the list with Citizen Kane. The AFI calls it the greatest film ever made — do they agree?

To celebrate our 200th podcast, we take a look at some of the less screened and spoken about movie masterpieces that give us "that feel". Movies like Chaplin's The Gold Rush, Renoir's Boudu Saved From Drowning, Forman's The Fireman's Ball, the Coens' Barton Fink, Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire among many others are what Secret Movie Club founder.programmer Craig Hammill calls "lightning bottle movie masterpieces". Movies that give you "that feel" of electric, exciting "I want to do this" moviemaking. We discuss 15 movies in all, including asserting that Citizen Kane, as discussed as it is, is taken for granted and underrated now. Our hope here is that you'll go check out or re-watch a few of these movies and seek out cinema that gives you "that feel" to make amazing movies. 

This week's theme is Property. Bob & Robb recommend six movies that get owned.  Bob — The Abyss (17:10), House of Sand and Fog (37:25), Barbarian (53:14)  Robb — Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (4:12), Captain Ron (29:00), Citizen Kane (45:02)  Follow —>  Rewind Video: https://rewindvideopod.substack.com/p/follow-rewind-video  Bob: https://letterboxd.com/rgdjr/  Robb: http://robbwitmer.info

Yarbs and Will are back and today they open with the ACC's “Halloween Massacre,” Dabo's ref-blasting and why officiating needs accountability just like coaches and players. Then it's CFP rankings hysteria vs. reality, an Oregon gut-check, and a detour into band lore—from LSU's 66-year-old tuba rookie to Ohio State's family “dot the i” moment.The guys rip into the ESPN vs. YouTube TV carriage fight and the streaming sprawl that made “cutting the cord” a joke, hit NASCAR with Denny Hamlin's heartbreak, and serve up Get Off My Lawn: pharma-commercial dance numbers, and why Dallas is absolutely not “America's Team.” They also rapid-fire the week's oddities (Tom Brady's cloned dog), Tuberville's tone-deaf comments, and their 3-on-3 of most overrated movies (prepare yourself: The Dark Knight, Titanic, Pulp Fiction, The Godfather, Citizen Kane catch strays).Finally, they celebrate the Panthers' stunner over Green Bay, size up Saints-week stakes, debate Bills-Chiefs regular season vs. playoff truth, and wonder if Kyler's time in Arizona is over with Jacoby Brissett thriving. Chaos, jokes, and strong takes—exactly how Breaking Sports likes it.

When Ninjas Ruled the 80s: A Deep Dive into Daytime WarriorsWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast. Prepare yourself for a crossover extravaganza as hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell team up with special guest Professor Dustin Morrow from The Long Rewind Podcast to tackle one of the 80s' most inexplicable obsessions—ninjas! This isn't just any ninja discussion; it's a deep exploration of Revenge of the Ninja (1983) and Ninja 3: The Domination (1984), two Canon Films masterpieces that defined the era's fascination with mystical warriors who apparently preferred fighting in broad daylight.The Canon Films Ninja RevolutionThe hosts dive into how Israeli production company Canon Films single-handedly weaponized America's ninja obsession, churning out genre-defining films starring Sho Kosugi—the first Asian actor to headline major American action films. From Salt Lake City doubling as Los Angeles to ninjas scaling palm trees to fight helicopters, these movies redefined what action cinema could be on a shoestring budget. Revenge of the Ninja emerges as the "Citizen Kane of ninja movies," featuring some of the most jaw-dropping stunt work ever captured on film, all accomplished with just a few fearless stunt performers and zero CGI.Possession, Aerobics, and V8 JuiceNinja 3: The Domination takes the conversation into even stranger territory, combining ninja action with Flashdance-inspired aerobics sequences and full-blown demonic possession. Lucinda Dickey's telecom worker/aerobics instructor becomes possessed by an evil ninja spirit, leading to some of the most bewildering cinema of the decade. The hosts explore how this unholy mashup of genres created something uniquely, unforgettably 80s—complete with neon-soaked apartments, Patrick Nagel paintings, and one of cinema's most disturbing love scenes involving tomato juice.Additional Highlights:The mystery of ninja costume storage capacity and infinite weapon suppliesWhy "daytime ninjas" were apparently a legitimate career pathCanon Films' breakneck production schedule that gave us three Lucinda Dickey movies in one yearThe Village People fight sequence that has to be seen to be believedHot tub death scenes as the ultimate 80s ninja execution methodFinal VerdictThe hosts agree these films represent peak 80s absurdity while delivering genuine thrills. Whether you're seeking unintentional comedy (Ninja 3) or surprisingly solid action filmmaking (Revenge of the Ninja), both movies offer essential viewing for understanding how ninjas conquered American pop culture one throwing star at a time.Connect & ExploreCheck out The Long Rewind podcastDiscover more about The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast and TruStory FM at trustory.fm.

In the final part of our three part 2025 series, Is This Cinema?, we look at the 2010 boundary pushing shocking controversial A SERBIAN FILM co-wri & directed by Srdjan Spasojevic which has its advocates like moviemaker Eli Roth and its detractors (many many others). Actor, moviemaker, musician Andras Jones (who did NOT see the movie) and Secret Movie Club founder.programmer Craig Hammill (who did) use the movie (which did play big festivals around the world) as the launching point for the third part of their conversation about what actually defines cinema. Andras and Craig work to dig down on what the basic elements are that define cinema. Citizen Kane and Pink Flamingos both come up. And surprisingly Andras and Craig do ultimately come to a definition that works for both of them.

In the classic film Citizen Kane, Charles Foster Kane amasses wealth and power by building a newspaper empire. In a story reminiscent of Ecclesiastes 2:4-11, Kane spares himself no pleasure, building a castle with grand gardens full of artistic treasures. Like other tycoons, what Kane really wants is adulation. He bankrolls his own political career and, when it fails, he blames the defeat on voter “fraud” to save face. He builds his wife an opera house and forces her into an ill-suited singing career to make him look good. Here too Kane’s story echoes Ecclesiastes, where wealth is found to harm those who chase and horde it (9:10-15), leaving them eating “in darkness, with great frustration” (5:17). By the end of his life, Charlie Kane lives in that castle alone, isolated, and angry. Citizen Kane ends with the revelation that Charlie’s pursuits have been driven to fill a void in his heart—the parental love he lost as a child. I can imagine the author of Ecclesiastes agreeing. Our Father God has set eternity in our hearts (3:11), and life can only be enjoyed with Him (2:25). Charlie Kane’s cautionary tale speaks to us all: don’t seek spiritual fulfilment through wealth and power, but through the one who pours His love into our hearts (Romans 5:5).

THE GOOD CITIZEN—This episode is a special one for us here at Magazeum. We even gave it its own code name: “Project Rosebud” (IYKYK). But if you only know our guest as the grandson of the man who inspired the lead character in the film classic Citizen Kane and the founder of one of the largest publishing empires in the world, you are missing out. Will Hearst could have done the easy thing, but he chose not to. As the current chairman of the Hearst Corporation, Will balances stewardship of a sprawling media empire with a commitment to community and lasting value. Unlike the new breed of media moguls, his leadership is less about compliance and more about the continuing importance of fostering quality journalism rooted in place and purpose.But aside from his role as a suit at the Hearst Corporation, Will's labor of love is Alta—an indie quarterly that champions a distinct West Coast voice, providing a vital counterpoint to the East Coast lens that still dominates the national discourse.Alta is crafted to be held and savored—he thinks of its subscribers as members more than a mailing list. In an age dominated by volume, speed, and algorithms, Will Hearst would like to remind us to slow down, listen deeply, and consume wisely. In times like these, his vision seems almost Quixotic—to see media as craft, culture as inheritance, and storytelling as something lasting. Nevertheless, he continues to charge, shaping a legacy both ancient and urgently new.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

Movies that change cinema often come from outsiders – whether it's Orson Welles making Citizen Kane or George Lucas making Star Wars a.k.a. Episode IV: A New Hope. The excellent graphic novel Lucas Wars by artist Renaud Roche and writer Laurent Hopman just came out in English (the original French title is Les Guerres de Lucas.) I talk with Renaud and Laurent about why the making of Star Wars was such a long shot, and how the production changed the lives of everyone involved. Plus, we discuss the unsung heroes who helped make Star Wars happen -- like Lucas's ex wife Marcia and studio mogul Alan Ladd Jr.   Imaginary Worlds was just nominated for a Signal Award for Best Arts & Culture podcast!

Might want to put on the headphones for this one -- Bob "Bobcat" Goldthwait has a set of pipes (at least in the old days) that is indescribable. A perfect fit for the MTV era, Bobcat's comedy was edgy (to say the least) and he became a favorite of other edgy artists (Kurt Cobain was a big fan). Bobcat was a regular at Comic Relief fundraisers and he carved out a niche as a supporting actor in flicks such as Police Academy 2. Bobcat also was behind "The Citizen Kane of alcoholic clown movies" -- Shakes the Clown. But eventually Bobcat found himself trapped by his comic persona and that voice and he consciously sought out more behind the scenes work (including directing the Jimmy Kimmel Live show in the early 2000s). And in recent years, the comic now know as Bob Goldthwait has poked a little fun at the change -- a 2020 special is called "You Don't Look The Same Either." As always find extended clips below and thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Bobcat? Time to test your speakers -- here's Bobcat in full flight at one of the Comic Relief benefit shows. As one commenter noted -- he's a real life Tasmanian Devil. https://youtu.be/O0qAfWWQJ5w?si=mT9EFIhW60N_5wnj Bobcat was a natural for gonzo comedies and his role as Zed in the Police Academy films was a fan fave. https://youtu.be/GbURJaV_iYQ?si=QMduQa7fbzti-DSl A bomb that has turned into a cult classic, Shakes the Clown imagines an all clown world with Bobcat as the titular character trying to beat a frame up for murder. https://youtu.be/Du71B7kEHvY?si=Cil0KZrScl3jVE-5 In his recent standup, Bob Goldthwait drops the "Bobcat" and has fun at the expense of his old image. https://youtu.be/XX2NzMnIsOg?si=EFaIdb4MfJRA8kLA

Steve interviews author Nick Davis, whose book "Competing with Idiots," offers a very inside look at the lives of "Citizen Kane" writer Herman Mankiewicz, and his brother, writer/director Joseph Mankiewicz ("All About Eve," "Julius Caesar," "Cleopatra"). 

In the past twenty years, more than a third of all American newspapers have shuttered; trust in media institutions is now at a historic low. And yet we're still drawn to depictions of reporters onscreen. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss two recent entries into the genre: “The Paper,” a workplace comedy from Greg Daniels and Michael Koman set at a failing local newspaper, and “The Lowdown,” a crime noir from Sterlin Harjo about a freelancer and self-styled “truthstorian.” They compare these new works with earlier examples to illuminate how the practice—and perception—of journalism has changed. In classics such as “All the President's Men,” Fry notes, “The airing of the facts via the news, via this character of the journalist, makes us feel like it's gonna be O.K. Like, the truth is out!” Today, she says, “I'm not sure we treat newsmaking the same way.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The Paper” (2025–)“The Lowdown” (2025–)“All the President's Men” (1976)“The China Syndrome” (1979)“Citizen Kane” (1941)“The Gilded Age” (2022–)“The Office” (2005–13)“‘The Paper' Is Old News,” by Inkoo Kang (The New Yorker)Brian Stelter's Reliable Sources newsletter“Spotlight” (2015)“Succession” (2018–23)“My Undesirable Friends” (2025)404 MediaNew episodes drop every Thursday.

Mark Kermode began reviewing films 40 years ago, and has established himself as one of our most foremost critics, both in print and on air. He co-presents Screenshot on Radio 4 and the podcast Kermode and Mayo's Take, with his long-term collaborator Simon Mayo. He's said he goes to every screening hoping it will be the next Citizen Kane – but he's also renowned for his energetic rants against the films he finds most disappointing. Music is another lifelong love – and for nearly 30 years he's played double bass in The Dodge Brothers, a skiffle band who have also performed live soundtracks for silent movies. And film music is the subject of his most recent book, Mark Kermode's Surround Sound, examining the complex relationship between what we hear and what we see. Mark's music includes Mica Levi, Strauss and Jelly Roll Morton.

Travis is back in the studio this week, home from Dragon Con, and he is joined by Austin and Phil Rood of The Picture Show (with Austin and Phil Rood) to talk about all three of them watching Citizen Kane for the first time ever. Widely proclaimed to be one of the best and most influenctial films ever made, it is the first feature film for Writer/Director/Producer/Actor Orson Welles. So, does it live up to the hype? Or is it just an old movie that everyone cites as great, but has where everything in it has been done better?

SEASON 4 EPISODE 11: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Jayvee Vance has got to resign as Vice President. Relax; he won't. But you cannot BE Vice President of the United States if you're crazy enough to boast about repurposing the military as a War Crime committing death squad killing probable migrants in international waters. Plus if you’re responding to tweets by the Krassensteins you’re clearly insane and unfit for office. Even under Trump.. MEANWHILE: if Trump was an FBI informant against Jeffrey Epstein that means he was a witness to everything Epstein did with those girls? And yes, Mike Johnson tried to "back off" his claim that Trump was an FBI Epstein agent late Sunday, but a) the "back off" came 72 hours after he blurted it out; b) it still implies that Trump knew about Epstein and went to the authorities about it, suggesting he had first-hand evidence like HE WAS THERE, and c) it is a cardinal tenet of QAnon that if Trump is ON the Epstein client list. "He did it for 'Merica!" might not be the flex Trump and Mike Johnson think it is ALSO: Trump was booed as he arrived at the U.S. Tennis Open yesterday. You didn’t see it because Bob Iger and ABC and Disney whored themselves out pre-censoring the truth. CBS just did that too - and worse, agreeing NOT to edit out any lies by Trump Gang members. THE PRIMARY RESIDENCE WITCH-HUNT? The mortgage app alleged white lie with which Trump hopes to bring down a Fed governor and Letitia James and Adam Schiff? The nut job releasing the alleged evidence is Bill Pulte and guess what public records show HIS OWN PARENTS DID? They ALSO CLAIMED multiple "primary residences" - and you can only have one. Oops. THERE IS SOME GOOD NEWS: per G. Elliott Morris: mainstream Trump polling is flat, unchanged. But the INTERIOR numbers? Since January Trump’s STRONG approval number - the diehards - has dropped from 34% to 24%. That's down a third. And his STRONG disapproval number - the haters - has grown from 36% to 46%. Also a third. That is unsustainable. B-Block (41:53) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: "Gunther Eagleman" and the other similarly stupidly named Right Wing influencers now alleged to be on yet ANOTHER country's payroll. Plus the man who killed CNN John Malone may have inadvertently outed a racist: himself. And And a CBS correspondent named Robert Costa let Trump pee on his leg about Russia and all he did was report: “CBS Exclusive: Trump Exclusively Peed On MY leg!” C-Block (55:20) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: They're going to use A.I. to try to reconstruct the infamous 43 missing minutes in the classic - possible greatest film of all time - "Magnificent Ambersons." I loathe the concept. I will watch the product as many times as they let me! But of more immediate relevance, if they ever release it, I'll be able to say I knew the star of a new 2025 film who died in 1994 and I met in 1985 only I didn't realize it was him. I swear I thought she said "Carlton." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are quite a few directors who absolutely blew the doors off with their first feature film. We have been combing through and tried to find our favorites to try to create the most powerful teams of debut films. We also spin ten random movies we should all watch within the next six weeks (find more details about where to watch on Instagram). And finally, it took five years and tens of dozens of episodes, but after a comedy of errors Jake finally breaks down in the most ridiculous and uncontrollable giggle fit just trying to make technology work. I considered taking it out, but I've left in all Dustin's bloopers over the years, so I guess I was due. Sorry.Before that, Dustin gives his first impressions of after seeing Weapons and The Tom Green Documentary. Jake has just watched the first season of The Hunting Wives, the renewed season 14 of King of the Hill, the first episode of MobLand (finally) and as promised, Citizen Kane.Have thoughts about the episode?

Holidays often mean we post a listicle...and so the Civic Holiday brings about our breakdown of the American Film Institute's greatest movies that DIDN'T make their 1998 or 2007 Top 100 lists. So there's no Citizen Kane, Godfather, Jaws action here. These are nominees that were shunned both times, such as Dog Day Afternoon, Ghostbusters, L.A. Confidential...and so many more. Bev listed her #100 down to #11 alphabetically while Ryan came up with categories in groups of 10. Then we each did a more thorough analysis of our Top 10 lists. So get cozy on this first Monday of August as the 679th edition of Have You Ever Seen highlights 100+ choices of outstanding American movies on this AFI's Not Quite 100 listicle. Well, Actually: Brad Pitt IS in 3 movies between our 2 lists, but one of them was just a tiny cameo in Being John Malkovich. Also, it appears that Martin Scorsese should not have been listed with the directors who have 3 movies on one or both of our lists (it's just 2). Also also, Sigourney Weaver WAS in an AFI movie, but her 3 seconds in Annie Hall was a cameo at the very end where you can barely tell it's her. Sparkplug Coffee? Why, they sponsor us.

Title: The Room [Wikipedia] [IMDb] Director: Tommy Wiseau Producer: Tommy Wiseau Writer: Tommy Wiseau Stars: Tommy Wiseau, Juliette Danielle, Greg Sestero, Philip Haldiman, Carolyn Minnott Release date: June 27, 2003 PROMO: Cinema Recall (@cinema_recall) SPECIAL GUEST: Derik (@Rashanii); Ratchet Book Club (@RatchetBookClub), A Seat at the Spades Table SHOWNOTES: We did not hit her.

Yes, you read that right; this is our 100th numbered episode of the podcast, and we are celebrating that along with the conclusion of Season Eight with a very special redux on a long-time favorite: Tommy Wiseau's The Room! On this momentous occasion, Derik from Ratchet Book Club and A Seat at the Spades Table joins Beau and Ashley as a first-time watcher of the 2003 independent film often called "the Citizen Kane of bad movies". It would be a massive understatement to call Wiseau's magnum opus The Room important to Collateral Cinema; it's practically the reason we started podcasting together in the first place! We took the opportunity to hear Derik's fresh take moments after the experience and share our thoughts on why this film is not only so important to us, but to cinema and pop culture as a whole. Thank you to all of our listeners, guests, collaborators, and fellow podcasters for helping us make it this far, and here's to Season Nine and the next 100 episodes! You are tearing us apart!

It's back-to-back podcast coups as David and Ryan are joined by legendary director Joe Dante as well as a host of technical problems for poor Dave. But the content is so good, you'll never know! The guys chat with fellow (to Ryan) New Jersey native Joe about his storied career, their favorite Dante films, and Joe's own life as a movie-mad cinema-goer and collector of films. Then he tells them the absolutely insane story of how he became the custodian of /the/ Rosebud from freaking CITIZEN KANE for over 40 years and why he has decided to pass it on to the next generation of collectors.

John Travolta spent 18 years trying to turn L. Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth into the next Star Wars. Instead, he delivered a cinematic disaster that made Waterworld look like Citizen Kane. With alien dreadlocks, nonsensical plot twists, and more Dutch angles than Amsterdam, Travolta's passion project became Hollywood's punchline of the decade. Bitcherton co-stars Cassie Willson and Katie Marovitch join Misha to revolt against Battlefield Earth. Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
