After going “Psycho” for Alfred Hitchcock a while back (episode 140, but who's counting?) we revisit another of his classics, 1948's Rope. Upon release, Rope basically hanged itself with audiences and critics due to its deep, dark premise. Two men of questionable sexual orientation strangle the living daylights out of their friend with a … well, you know … just to do it. Heavy handed philosophies, psychological games, and one sharp Jimmy Stewart later, the film stiffed at the box office. But now, over seventy years after its release, is it now simply a gay old time? The Old Roommates dive into the pate and discuss the thriller through their middle-aged lens. Join them for this lively discussion.Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.

The crime rate has skyrocketed, New York City has been turned into a maximum-security prison, and only one man can save the President, Snake Plissken. In this week's episode of Born to Watch, the crew dives deep into Escape from New York (1981), John Carpenter's dystopian sci-fi action classic. With Kurt Russell cementing his status as an ‘80s action legend, this film delivers an unforgettable mix of grunge, synth, and one of cinema's most iconic antiheroes.Join Whitey, Damo, and Gow as they break down what makes Escape from New York such a cult favorite. From its gritty, neon-lit depiction of a crumbling NYC to Carpenter's signature synth-heavy score, this movie packs a punch in just 99 minutes. The guys debate whether this is Carpenter's best film (or if The Thing still reigns supreme), dissect the film's incredible cast—including Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, and Isaac Hayes—and, of course, question the physics of Snake's impossible glider landing.Expect plenty of laughs, wild tangents (including a deep dive into the weirdest VHS collections), and heated debates over the most ridiculous moments of the film.

In this episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas wrap up John Williams Month with a deep dive into the 1978 classic Superman: The Movie! They explore the film's lasting impact on superhero cinema, Christopher Reeve's legendary performance, and how John Williams' iconic score helped define the Man of Steel. From emotional storytelling to groundbreaking special effects, they discuss why this film remains a gold standard for superhero origin stories. Plus, they analyze how this Superman set the stage for the modern superhero genre and what lessons James Gunn might take for the upcoming Superman: Legacy. Strap in for a nostalgic and insightful discussion on the film that made audiences "believe a man could fly!" Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 – Introduction: Wrapping up John Williams Month with Superman (1978) 00:14 – First Impressions: How many times have we seen this classic? 00:24 – Christopher Reeve's Impact: The definitive Superman 00:47 – The Heart of Superman: Why this film still resonates 01:09 – The Film's Strengths & Weaknesses: Does it hold up today? 01:50 – Superman's Influence on Modern Superhero Films 02:30 – Lex Luthor's Portrayal: Gene Hackman's unique take on the character 03:00 – Iconic Moments & Special Effects: The magic of practical effects 04:00 – John Williams' Score: How music makes Superman feel larger than life 04:45 – The Legacy of Superman (1978): What it teaches today's superhero movies 05:30 – Looking Forward: Hopes for Superman: Legacy Key Takeaways: Christopher Reeve set the gold standard for Superman. His portrayal remains unmatched in charm, confidence, and hope. John Williams' score is a character in itself. The music elevates key moments, making them feel larger than life. The film's practical effects were groundbreaking. The flying sequences and large-scale destruction still hold up in many ways. Lex Luthor was portrayed with a mix of comedy and intelligence. Gene Hackman's take on the character remains a unique interpretation. Superman's humanity makes him relatable. His emotional reactions, especially to Lois Lane, show why he's a compelling hero. The newsroom setting perfectly captured the hustle of journalism. Perry White, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen brought energy to The Daily Planet. Without Superman (1978), modern superhero films wouldn't exist as we know them. The film paved the way for serious and big-budget superhero storytelling. Memorable Quotes:

EPISODE 71 - “STEVE & NAN's FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1970s” - 1/20/2024 The 1970s was a decade that saw the rise of the auteur. Filmmakers like Scorsese, Coppola, Cassavetes, Altman, Lumet, and DePalma hit their stride and brought to the screen their specific vision and stylized films. It was a very experimental era where boundaries were pushed and once-taboo topics were explored. It became a creative high point and gave us some iconic movies.

Hey there, fellow watchers! It's your host Whitey, flying solo once again for this special edition of Born to Watch. After last week's popular solo mailbox episode, he's back on the mic, diving deep into the year that was 2024—a year that, in Whitey's words, wasn't exactly Hollywood's finest. With a trusty mix of humour, honesty, and more than a few nostalgic callbacks to the glory days of video shops, Whitey gives us his take on the Good, the Bad, and the downright Ugly movies of 2024. This episode covers everything, whether you're looking for hidden gems, blockbuster letdowns, or absolute cinematic disasters, so strap in for the best and worst movies of 2024.The Good – Movies Worth Your TimeKicking things off with the Good list, Whitey revisits some of the standout films of the year. First up is Alien: Romulus, a tense sci-fi thriller that Whitey still stands by after a couple of rewatches at home. Despite a few nitpicks—like the unnecessary hybrid twist and a clunky android character—he praises its gripping tension, stellar action, and atmospheric set design reminiscent of the original Alien film. Whitey even boldly declares it might just be the third-best movie in the franchise!Next, it's time for some weather chaos with Twisters, the legacy sequel that brought just enough nostalgia without going overboard. Whitey recounts his less-than-ideal cinema experience (complete with overly chatty patrons) but admits the film was still a blast, thanks to Glen Powell's charisma and a twin-tornado showdown that kept him glued to his seat. And, of course, Whitey couldn't leave out Deadpool and Wolverine, a crowd-pleaser packed with slapstick humour, MCU references, and the electric chemistry between Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.From the toe-tapping spectacle of Wicked to Denis Villeneuve's stunning epic Dune: Part 2, Whitey breaks down what made these films worth watching—and why you should check them out if you haven't already. He even gives a shoutout to Juror #2, Clint Eastwood's final film, calling it a fitting farewell for the legendary director.The Bad – Not Terrible, Just DisappointingIn the Bad section, Whitey tackles films that had potential but ultimately fell short. First on the chopping block is Furiosa, George Miller's Mad Max prequel that struggled without Max himself. While Whitey appreciates Miller's world-building and some solid action scenes, the bloated runtime and over-reliance on CGI left him underwhelmed. He also critiques Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, which failed to capture the charm of its predecessor despite the return of the original trio.Whitey wraps up this section by discussing The Fall Guy, a disappointing adaptation of a beloved 80s TV show. Despite its promising cast—Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt—the film's ludicrous plot and lack of heart earned it a spot on the Bad list.The Ugly – The Year's Biggest LetdownsFinally, we arrive at the Ugly, where Whitey unleashes his full frustration on Joker: Folie à Deux. He doesn't mince words, calling it a “trainwreck of boredom and arrogance” that destroyed the original's brilliance. While Whitey has a soft spot for musicals, this wasn't the kind of musical he could get behind.Bonus Mentions & What's Coming NextFor those who stick around till the end, Whitey throws in a couple of honourable mentions, including Gladiator 2—a film that, while unnecessary, still delivered some fun moments—and Inside Out 2, a sequel that entertained without reaching the emotional depth of its predecessor.Looking ahead, Whitey teases next week's episode, where he and Damo will tackle The Last Jedi, one of the most divisive Star Wars films of all time. Expect fiery opinions, passionate debate, and plenty of laughs as the duo dissects what could be the worst Star Wars movie ever made.If you're a fan of brutally honest reviews, nostalgic movie talk, and Whitey's signature blend of wit and sarcasm, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and enjoy this rollercoaster ride through 2024's cinematic highs and lows.

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film.

This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars.

EPISODE 61 - “FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1960s” - 11/11/2024 The decade of the 1960s was an exciting time in filmmaking. The stodgy studio contract system was starting to give way to a new crop of independent cinematic auteurs, often associated with the "New Hollywood" era, include: Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, Sam Peckinpah, Arthur Penn, John Cassavetes, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, and Peter Bogdanovich.
