The Junkies compare vacations: Shauna stayed in a hostel and didn't get murdered (yay!) and Olivia enjoyed the Big Little Lies vibes at an oyster farm north of San Francisco. Then it's time to talk zombies: specifically the scary-fast ones featured in the 28 Days Later movie series. They both can't wait for the premiere of the third movie, 28 Years Later, and go back to relive the events leading up to it. (Warning, spoilers for 23- and 18-year-old movies within.) Shauna loves a good end of the world story, Olivia loves the 28 Weeks Later more than the original, and both of them love Cillian Murphy, even when he's not nude.

Welcome to the LIVING FOR THE BOYLE review series!  Daniel Francis Boyle originally hailed from Manchester, England and his filmmaking career took off thirty years ago in 1995 with the release of acclaimed cult thriller Shallow Grave.  And ever since then, Danny Boyle (as he's officially known) has carved out a uniquely successful career not only achieving box office success several times but also winning a few Oscars along the way.  During this time period, he has also become one of MY personal favorite directors, having helmed excellent ORIGINAL stories spanning several genres including children's fantasy, science fiction, crime drama, horror, and biopic.  Over the next few months, I will be reviewing some of my favorite entries from his filmography in the lead-up to the long-awaited sequel to one of his more successful films….28 Years Later which will be released in the U.S. on June 20!From the Oscar-winning writer (Aaron Sorkin) of The Social Network comes another "Based Upon a True Story" exploration of one of the titans of the digital revolution, this time the titular Steve Jobs played by Oscar-nominee Michael Fassbender (Shame, Black Bag).  This story takes behind the scenes in the lead-up to three VERY different product launches headlined by the eventual Apple CEO in 1984, 1988, and culminating in 1998 with the launch of the revoluationairy IMac computer for home and office use.  Along the way, we not only learn about the various ups-and-downs of the Apple/Mac brand as overseen by Jobs but much of his personal drama as well, especially his tumultuous relationship with his daughter Lisa.  This Oscar nominated drama was directed by Boyle and featured a stellar cast including Kate Winslet, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jeff Daniels, and Seth Rogen.Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Case and Sam are joined by DJ Nik to revivify some Xenomorphs!   Overview   In the latest episode of the Another Pass podcast, hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea, along with guest DJ Nik, delve into the complexities of "Alien Resurrection," the fourth installment of the renowned Alien franchise. They discuss the film's controversial elements, including its scientific plausibility, character dynamics, and Joss Whedon's unique screenplay style. The conversation highlights the film's shift towards a more campy tone and examines the visual aesthetics brought by director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, particularly the impressive underwater sequences. The hosts critique the character motivations and propose improvements, with Sam suggesting clearer intentions for the scientists and more depth for the space pirates, while Nick proposes focusing primarily on the scientists and Ripley in a more claustrophobic setting. Case adds ideas for restructuring the narrative arc to enhance suspense. The episode concludes with a tease for their next discussion covering "Highlander 2: The Quickening."   Notes Introduction to Alien Resurrection Discussion (00:00 - 10:27) Case Aiken and Sam Alicea host Another Pass podcast with guest DJ Nik They're discussing Alien Resurrection, the fourth film in the Alien franchise Nik introduces himself as a host of multiple podcasts including Whiskey and Cigarettes Case positions this film as less respected than Alien 3, which he previously defended Nick describes his love for the franchise, noting the Xenomorph as 'the greatest creature ever created' He appreciates how each film in the franchise has different directors with different visual styles Sam admits she only watched the Alien films because of the podcast, as she's 'afraid of everything' Plot Elements and Science Issues (10:27 - 20:35) The group discusses the questionable science of cloning Ripley to harvest the alien inside her The movie is set 200 years after Alien 3, with Ripley having died in the previous film Sam suggests the genetic material might have been recovered like in Jurassic Park Case notes the first three films maintained scientific plausibility while this one stretches credibility The movie explores Ripley as a superhuman hybrid, shifting the franchise toward sci-fi adventure Nick points out that Sigourney Weaver was brought back as the flagship character Case questions the scientists' motives for bringing the aliens to Earth Characters and Crew Dynamic (20:35 - 30:37) The movie features a crew of space pirates rather than soldiers or workers as in previous films Sam notes the villain motivations aren't properly established, raising questions about their plans The group questions why the aliens are kept together in cells where they can conspire to escape Nick suggests this is due to 'human hubris' and scientists wanting to study their interactions The movie has a distinct 'Joss Whedon' style, as he wrote the screenplay Case appreciates the lived-in world aesthetic consistent with previous Alien films Sam praises the film's beautiful visuals and camera work despite her criticisms Alien Sequences and Visual Elements (30:38 - 39:45) The underwater sequence with aliens swimming is praised as visually impressive Sam notes the unrealistic breath-holding duration in the underwater scene The group appreciates creative kills and set pieces in the film They discuss how director Jean-Pierre Jeunet brought a different visual style The film is described as more campy than previous entries, closer to a slasher film in space The cast is discussed, with Michael Wincott as the captain and Ron Perlman as an abrasive character Winona Ryder is described as distractingly famous for her role as the android Call The Xenomorphs and Newborn Design (39:45 - 49:46) The aliens show intelligence when escaping their cells by sacrificing one of their own The group discusses the alien queen's live birth ability instead of egg-laying Case questions how this is an 'evolutionary upgrade' when it seems painful and inefficient The newborn hybrid alien design is praised as appropriately freaky and different The theme of motherhood continues from previous films in the franchise Nick points out how the newborn looks more human than regular xenomorphs Sam simply finds the newborn 'gross' and disturbing Improving the Film - Sam's Pitch (49:46 - 01:01:06) Sam suggests clarifying the scientists' motives early in the film She proposes establishing that the main goal is creating super-soldiers like Ripley Sam recommends making the pirates more likeable so viewers care when they die She suggests giving hints about Winona Ryder's character being an android earlier Sam recommends establishing a military base on Earth as the destination for the specimens For the underwater scene, she suggests allowing characters to surface for air occasionally She would keep the film's ending but focus on fixing the first act and character development Nick's Alternative Approach (01:01:06 - 01:10:07) Nick proposes eliminating the space pirates entirely He suggests focusing on scientists, Ripley, and Call (Winona Ryder's character) He recommends a more claustrophobic setting with military presence to explore ethics Nick suggests adding communication between the space station and Earth He proposes showing how Ripley's DNA was extracted to address audience questions Nick mentions that Joss Whedon's original script featured Newt instead of Ripley He wonders how the film might have been different if directed by Danny Boyle, who was approached first Case's Restructuring Proposal (01:10:08 - 01:18:51) Case suggests making the space pirates the focus of the first act, with Winona Ryder as the viewpoint character He proposes revealing Ripley later as a surprise, during the basketball scene He recommends establishing that scientists have been successfully cloning aliens already Case suggests the aliens should have been in captivity longer to justify their escape methods He likes keeping the back half of the movie mostly intact The hosts share that Sigourney Weaver actually made the backward basketball shot in one take They conclude by mentioning their next episode will cover Highlander 2: The Quickening

Danny Boyle skapade 1996 med Trainspotting ett obarmhärtigt porträtt av unga heroinister i Skottland, kryddat med stilkänsla, svart humor och ett magiskt soundtrack. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Trots att låten ”Lust for life” kom nästan 20 år innan ”Trainspotting” lanserades är det svårt att frånkoppla Iggy Pops låt från filmen. Intro-scenen är så igenkännbar att till och med ”The Simpsons” har gjort parodi på den, trots de tunga ämnen som behandlas i filmen. Att en roman skriven på skotsk slang om unga, tunga missbrukares liv skulle översättas till en internationell filmsuccé känns långt ifrån en självklarhet. Filmen väckte också blandade reaktioner när den kom. Vad innebär det att ”välja livet”? Rasmus Grosin ser om ”Trainspotting” från 1996, och blir golvad igen.

In vacanza a Bangkok, l'americano Richard scopre l'esistenza di una comunità segreta che vive su un'isola paradisiaca e decide di raggiungerla insieme a una coppia di turisti francesi. Ma il gruppo di moderni hippie, guidato da una donna, non è solo un'oasi di pace e armonia. Un film di Danny Boyle, con Leonardo DiCaprio e Tilda Swinton.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we look back at Danny Boyle's genre-redefining horror-thriller 28 Days Later (2002)—the film that breathed new (and terrifyingly fast) life into the zombie subgenre. With Cillian Murphy leading a standout cast and Alex Garland's bleak script laying the groundwork, we explore how this British indie horror became one of the most influential films of the 2000s.We dive into its raw digital aesthetic, haunting score, and chilling depiction of a society brought to its knees by the Rage virus. Is it a zombie movie? A pandemic parable? A post-apocalyptic survival tale? Yes—and we're unpacking all of it.Follow Us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠: @horrorhourwiththehannasMusic by Aries Beats - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPpnxLYrzVA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

*The video version of this episode is delayed due to technical difficulties*Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesCinemaCon, the world's largest gathering for the motion picture industry, where studios and exhibitors showcase their upcoming film and theatrical offerings, reigns supreme this week, as the event was held in Las Vegas, March 31 through April 3. Several of the major studios we talk about on a near-weekly basis had plenty to dazzle us with, so let's break it down by studio and/or IP:Sony leaned heavily into its Cash Cow, meaning it was all things Spider-Man. In addition to placing Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, the final film of the animated Spider-Verse trilogy, back on the calendar for a June 4, 2027 release, Tom Holland took the stage to reveal the official title for his upcoming fourth Spider-Man film: Brand New Day, along with a new July 31, 2026 release date.Over at Warner Bros and DC, James Gunn ran the show, as he's been known to do. While the filmmaker shared an extensive sneak peek at his upcoming Superman, which was released online the next day; he also revealed that, circa 2018, he was approached to direct a Henry Cavill-led Superman film for the DCEU but opted to direct Suicide Squad instead. On the subject of James Gunn's Superman, Nathan Fillion, who portrays Green Lantern Guy Gardner in the film, was announced to be reprising the part in HBO's upcoming Lanterns series.Marvel Studios shared a new trailer for Fantastic Four: First Steps with CinemaCon attendees, which reportedly ‘electrified' and confirmed a fairly significant plot point regarding Vanessa Kirby's Sue Storm, as well as giving a first look at Julia Garner's Shala Bal Silver Surfer. Marvel's other, fast approaching, summer tentpole, Thunderbolts*, also had time to shine as Florence Pugh shared 5 minutes of footage with the audience, which teased the various miscreants' initial allegiances.Independent of CinemaCon, but still timely, Lucasfilm released the trailer for Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld, an animated anthology series that follows in the footsteps of previous ‘Tales' series, this time with a focus on bounty hunters Asajj Ventress and Cad Bane.Disney's offerings also included CinemaCon exclusive trailers for Avatar: Fire & Ash, Tron: Ares and Zootopia 2. Lionsgate announced an animated John Wick prequel directed by Shannon Tindle and with Keanu Reeves expected to voice the titular character. Chad Stahelski is developing John Wick 5 with Reeves returning, and Donnie Yen will direct and star in a spinoff.Sam Mendes revealed that all four Beatles biopic films will be released in April of 2028.

He also noted financing for the third film is still pending, urging fans to support the first two.Universal showed off a trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth that has not been made available to the public, but stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and director Gareth Edwards, took the stage to voice their love and enthusiasm for the franchise.Lightning RoundSony's live-action version of The Legend of Zelda hits theaters March 26, 2027, as announced by Nintendo on Friday.

The film is now expected to get a theatrical release in 2026.

We inject two more Danny Boyle films back into our veins with Trainspotting and T2 Trainspotting plus we also discuss Freaky Tales, Last Breath and Casa Bonita Mi Amor and the Beatles biopic casting news. 0:00 - Intro 27:15 - Review: Trainspotting 1:21:45 - Review: T2 Trainspotting 1:58:00- What We Watched: Freaky Tales, Casa Bonita Mi Amor, Last Breath, Beatles Movie Announcement 2:28:05 - This Week on DVD, Blu-ray and VOD 2:30:36 - Outro

Up this week a very fragile Ben and Jack return to discuss Trainspotting. First up an apology of being so frighteningly behind on bringing the pod to you this week - all will be revealed as to why. So... Trainspotting taken from the book by Irvine Welsh, which first became a stage show before then becoming A Danny Boyle classic. But what's it all about?Well firstly heroin. But is it just heroin? Is it about addiction and the idea of trying to understand the world in which we inhabit. We see the film apply a critical lense to the group of heroin addicts at the films core but does it judge? Was the film harsh enough on the effects of heroin?Now nearly 30 years on the perspective on heroin has changed substantially but Ben and Jack have a nose into whether young men are still plagued by the same problems that the film was discussing in the mid 90's. We take a look at the character of Renton, whether he's a hero or whether he's a villain before looking at some of the more brutal and uncomfortable scenes. Fantastic bit of fine wine of war crime today - plus only one man for MVP!Lots to come on what to watch this weekend - see you all on Friday!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What if the world forgot The Beatles… and only you remembered? On this episode of The Clean Slate Podcast, we're diving into Yesterday (2019), the feel-good musical fantasy directed by Danny Boyle and written by Richard Curtis. We break down the film's high-concept premise, its charming (and questionable) take on fame, and how the music of The Beatles is used to explore identity, artistry, and what it means to be original. Plus, we ask the big question: would YOU have done anything differently?

This week we return to our Must See Horror feature discussing a Top 100 horrors of all time list and make our own opinion on whether we feel it truly is a must see. This time we decide the fate of Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later a shot of rage into the decaying corpse of the zombie genre in the early 2000's and a star making turn for several actors especially one day Oscar Winner Cillian Murphy. We discuss the films status as Must See Horror as well as key scenes, actors and the overall quality and loo of the film. So get ready to either join us in the future or rage against us as we decide if 28 Days Later is a Must See Horror.

Welcome to the LIVING FOR THE BOYLE review series!  Daniel Francis Boyle originally hailed from Manchester, England and his filmmaking career took off thirty years ago in 1995 with the release of acclaimed cult thriller Shallow Grave.  And ever since then, Danny Boyle (as he's officially known) has carved out a uniquely successful career not only achieving box office success several times but also winning a few Oscars along the way.  During this time period, he has also become one of MY personal favorite directors, having helmed excellent ORIGINAL stories spanning several genres including children's fantasy, science fiction, crime drama, horror, and biopic.  Over the next few months, I will be reviewing some of my favorite entries from his filmography in the lead-up to the long-awaited sequel to one of his more successful films….28 Years Later which will be released in the U.S. on June 20!Twenty-nine years ago, this raw, high-energy adaptation of Irvine Welsh's novel about a group of young men in Edinburgh (Scotland) scoring heroin took the world by storm.  Of course, it was about more than just the drugs....it was a frenetic crime comedy/drama not only exploring addiction but youth.  It also featured a top-flight cast of up-and-coming UK actors along with an iconic soundtrack!  Starring Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, Robert Carlyle, Kevin McKidd, and Kelly McDonald, it's time to find out about whether to....Choose Life.   Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Joe & Adam are diving back into the Danny Boyle cinematic well — this time with T2 Trainspotting (2017), the long-awaited sequel to the iconic Brit flick.   The whole gang is back - Spud, Sick Boy, Renton, and Begbie - and so is Boyle's stylish storytelling. Our hosts break down the film, debate Ewan McGregor's hit-or-miss filmography, and (for once) actually talk about the movie more than usual.   Plus, Joe's homegrown Kevin Bacon game makes a triumphant return, alongside the classic Box Office game and the all-important Picking Next Week's Film game.   Got a film you forgot you forgot? Hit us up at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts, episode suggestions, or just some light praise. The best picks make it onto the sacred Communal List - and who knows, one day, fate (or our deeply flawed selection process) might smile upon yours.   You can also follow Adam on Letterboxd; he rates and reviews the films he watches. The comments section is a very cool place to be. Also, be a pal: tell your chums, rate us, review us, shout our name into the void - whatever helps spread the word.

28 Days Later is a "Zombie" movie made with a TV Camera that you watch on a big screen. It's really great! We talk about the practical and impractical applications of digital technology, materiality and zombie movies, the movie's depiction of fascism and soildering, then and now, and also what a spectacular bummer this thing is.  Read a great essay about filmic materiality and the zombie movie here. Research also pulled up this extemely weird but kind of nifty essay about how 28 Days Later is kind of about the new apocolyptic bent that food writing took in the early aughts.  A very good interview with cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle can be read here.  Matt reccomends 'Cinema's First Nasty Women,' an anthology fron Kino Lorber, available now. Corbin reccomends Dinner in America. He also likes that new Pixar show on Disney+ but your milage might vary. Next Week's episode is about either Spy Kids 2 or 3, we havent quite decided yet. If anyone had a strong opinion about which is the superior one, tell us I guess. 

We’re excited to introduce you to a show we know you’ll love: Talk Easy. Hosted by Sam Fragoso, Talk Easy is a weekly series of intimate conversations with artists, activists, and politicians—where people sound like people. Actor Dev Patel has pursued interesting, complex roles in Hollywood since his arrival in Slumdog Millionaire fifteen years ago. He joins us today to discuss Monkey Man, his directorial debut and most personal project to date. At the top, we walk through the Hindu mythology that inspired the film, his decade-long fight to get the project greenlit, and the conditions of filming on an island during the pandemic. Then, Dev describes his intense creative process, how he landed his TV debut at sixteen as a sex-crazed teenager on Skins, and his life-changing role in Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire. On the back-half, Patel reflects on his years in The Newsroom, the films that followed, including Garth Davis’ Lion and David Lowery’s The Green Knight, and how director/producer Jordan Peele saved Monkey Man from oblivion.

Daniel Pemberton is an Academy Award-nominated English composer and songwriter. In 1994, at the age of 16, he recorded an album in his bedroom using a multitrack cassette recorder. It caught the attention of the music producer Pete Namlook, who released it on his label, leading to a flurry of soundtrack commissions. In the years that followed, my guest wrote music for TV shows including Peep Show, The Dark Crystal, Enola Holmes, and Slow Horses.But it's his feature film work for which he is best known. He has collaborated with many of the world's leading directors, composing for Ridley Scott's The Counselor, Danny Boyle's Steve Jobs, Guy Ritchie's The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Michael Mann's Ferrari, and Aaron Sorkin's The Trial of the Chicago 7 –– for which he was nominated for an Oscar. He has also composed the soundtrack for the Oscar-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and several video games including LittleBigPlanet and Concord. In 2009, the Guardian's Paul Moody said of my guest: “few know his name but millions hear his music almost every day.” Be attitude for gains. https://plus.acast.com/s/my-perfect-console.
