This week, we're chatting about the not-technically-a-flop-but-still-has-flop-energy film EDGE OF TOMORROW! We discuss the necessity for new alien design, the firewall that stops us from asking questions about Tom Cruise, and discuss our favourite topic: what it's like to be married to Ben Affleck.

Send us a textEpisode 217 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and this week, with Mission Impossible back on the big screen, it's as good a time as any to remind folk of what might be Cruise's finest blockbuster movie of the 21st century. Some bizarre marketing might well have dulled its box office impact, but make no mistake, this is a (mostly) brilliant film. Listen in as we discuss everything that works about Edge of Tomorrow, and the one thing that almost derails the entire movie (especially for Rob). Link in the bio.

After dying in battle, he wakes up to relive the same brutal day—over and over—until he teams with the legendary “Full Metal Bitch” Sgt.

This week it's Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt over and over and over again as we talk about EDGE OF TOMORROW.

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**What do you get when you mash up Groundhog Day, Starship Troopers, and Mission: Impossible? A sci-fi action banger, that's what! This week, frequent guests Tim Gaylord and Ryan Burns are back to break down Edge of Tomorrow (2014), the high-octane Tom Cruise flick based on Hiroshi Sakurazaka's mind-bending light novel All You Need Is Kill (seriously, what a title). How does the film stack up against the book? And is either one so good we'd gladly relive it again and again? Hit play and find out.#EdgeofTomorrow #TomCruise #EmilyBlunt #TimGaylord #RyanBurns #DougLiman #HiroshiSakurazaka #AllYouNeedIsKill #LightNovel #BrendanGleeson #BillPaxton #ScienceFiction #TimeLoop #FilmisLitPod #DannyGaylord #Moviereview #Movieadaptation #BookvMovie
Welcome back to Born to Watch, where this week the team tackles the endlessly rewatchable, criminally underappreciated Edge of Tomorrow (2014). Strap in as Whitey, Damo, and Dan on the Land gear up for a sci-fi action loop fest featuring Tom Cruise in one of his most against-type roles, Emily Blunt as a full-metal badass, and a time-travel plot that actually sticks the landing. Enjoy our Edge of Tomorrow (2014) Review!The boys jump right into the paradox-riddled battlefield, first marveling at how this epic blockbuster somehow bombed in the US, despite being everything a great action movie should be. They blame lousy marketing, title confusion (was it Live Die Repeat?), and the fact that in 2014, Cruise was still on Hollywood's naughty step thanks to Oprah's couch.But now? It's cult-classic gold.Whitey kicks off by calling out just how rare it is to see Cruise playing the weasel, Major Cage is an ad man thrown into combat, clueless and terrified. For Dan, this fish-out-of-water arc makes the movie shine, watching Cruise go from smug coward to unstoppable warrior. Damo agrees, even calling Edge of Tomorrow his number one Cruise performance, yep, he goes there.Emily Blunt earns unanimous praise as Rita Vrataski, the “Angel of Verdun” and all-around exosuit-slaying legend. She's fierce, stoic, and fit as hell, basically the action heroine we didn't know we needed in 2014. Her iconic push-up entrance gets a lot of airtime (and a few longing sighs), and the team agrees she holds her own, and then some, against Cruise.And what would a Born to Watch ep be without the usual blend of insight and irreverence? We get tangents on everything from duck anatomy (cloacas, anyone?) to Bill Paxton's legendary status as the only man killed by a Terminator, a Predator, and an Alien. The Paxton love is real.The pod dives into director Doug Liman's sharp visuals and crisp pacing, and shout out screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie, who somehow turns a convoluted time loop premise into a tight, clever, and emotional thrill ride. Liman's resume (Bourne Identity, Mr. & Mrs. Smith) gets the props it deserves, and there's a great sidebar on the upcoming Road House remake, complete with hot takes on Jake Gyllenhaal.As always, the “Hit, Sleeper, Dud” segment delivers, with Gone Girl getting the nod as a masterful hit, Kevin Costner's 3 Days to Kill as a solid sleeper, and Lucy (sorry, ScarJo) landing squarely in dud territory. Bonus points for Damo's vivid breakdown of Ben Affleck's infamous side-dick scene.The episode also features a glorious Cruise countdown. Each host reveals their top five Tom Cruise films, expect Jerry Maguire, Collateral, Top Gun: Maverick, and of course, Edge of Tomorrow, to make appearances. Damo even throws in Tropic Thunder, because who can forget Les Grossman?Then there's the philosophical stuff: How long was Cage actually in the time loop? (Answer: a hell of a long time). Was blackmailing the general really the best plan? (Debatable). And what's the real ending? (Whitey thinks it's Cruise's “now you're gonna bone me” smile).Oh, and voicemails are back! Listeners call in to rant about The Bodyguard, praise the pod's Whitney Houston renditions, and drop the occasional F-bomb. Classic Born to Watch fan energy.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Edge of Tomorrow Cruise's most underrated film? Would you waste 300 time loops trying to get with Emily Blunt? Did this movie deserve to flop—or is it a misunderstood masterpiece?Drop us a voicemail at BornToWatch.com.au and be part of the show!#BornToWatch #EdgeOfTomorrow #TomCruise #EmilyBlunt #MoviePodcast #SciFiMovies #DougLiman #TimeLoopMovies #LiveDieRepeat #FilmDiscussion #UnderratedGems #CinephileApproved

Join me as I embark on an epic 3D sci-fi movie marathon, diving into four incredible films that pushed the boundaries of visual effects and immersive storytelling: The Martian (2015), Gravity (2013), Dredd (2012), and Edge of Tomorrow (2014). In this episode, I break down what makes each film a standout in the science fiction genre, exploring their ground-breaking 3D visuals, intense action sequences, and lasting legacy.From the vast, empty void of Gravity to the stylized brutality of Dredd, each of these films uses 3D in unique ways. In this episode, I break down how The Martian's landscapes, Gravity's weightlessness, Dredd's surreal slow-motion sequences, and Edge of Tomorrow's intense battlefields create unforgettable cinematic experiences.Tune in now for a deep dive into these incredible 3D sci-fi films! Whether you're a movie buff, sci-fi fan, or 3D enthusiast, this episode is packed with insights, analysis, and a discussion of how these films continue to leave a lasting impact.The Martian (2015)A gripping survival drama that follows Mark Watney (Matt Damon), an astronaut stranded on Mars after a disastrous mission. Directed by Ridley Scott, this film combines thrilling realism with humor and heart, showcasing NASA's ingenuity and the power of the human spirit. Co-starring Jessica Chastain, Jeff Daniels, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Donald Glover.Gravity (2013)A technical masterpiece that redefined modern visual effects,Sandra Bullock and George Clooney are astronauts stranded in orbit after their shuttle is destroyed. Directed by Alfonso Cuarón, the film is an intense, minimalist survival story that thrives on realism, tension, and stunning cinematography.Dredd (2012) Bringing Judge Dredd back to the big screen with a violent, no-nonsense adaptation, Dredd stars Karl Urban as the iconic law enforcer and Lena Headey as the ruthless drug lord Ma-Ma.

Directed by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr. & Mrs. Smith), the film follows Major William Cage (Tom Cruise), who is thrown into an unwinnable war against alien invaders but gains the ability to reset time every time he dies.

Groundhog Day meets alien invasion seems a sure fire high concept pitch; add megastar Tom Cruise into the equation and you would assume a box office smash. And yet, despite this and a strong critical reception, Doug Liman's Edge of Tomorrow met with a lackluster response, despite mech suits, Emily Blunt and innovative alien design. Join Sebastian, Chris and Rodney as they Live, Die and Repeat this movie over and over and over until they figure out why this wasn't a huge box office hit.
What's the title of this movie? Who decided to make it a comedy? Why isn't every movie as good as this one?
Mike takes the guys on another dive into a time loop. This time with the action movie, Edge of Tomorrow.
Inbetween our many conversations, we sneak off into how EDGE OF TOMORROW became a beyond well made movie that keeps earning legions of fans. Later on, I harp on the rather solid manga novelization of the book that inspired the aforementioned film. Why do studios still not know hot to market or title material like this? Why do audiences often love this kind of thing yet not show up for it? And what other factors make it stand out from all the other material even half a decade later?

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're embarking on a unique cinematic journey as we explore our Top 5 Point-of-View (POV) scenes in film and television. POV shots offer audiences a first-hand experience of the action, making for some of the most immersive and memorable moments in storytelling. After our countdown, we'll delve into the thrilling sci-fi action of Edge of Tomorrow and the playful perspectives of Rugrats.Top 5 POV Scenes in Film and Television:Hardcore Henry (2015) - Almost the entire film is a POV masterpiece, but one standout scene involves a high-adrenaline chase sequence that fully immerses viewers in the protagonist's frantic escape from numerous adversaries. The seamless integration of action and perspective makes this a top pick.Lady in the Lake (1947) - This classic film noir is shot entirely from the POV of the private detective protagonist. The scene where he discovers a body is particularly impactful, as viewers experience the shock and realization directly through his eyes.Enter the Void (2009) - This film uses the POV technique to express the disembodied state of a spirit wandering through Tokyo. The continuous float-over scenes through the neon-lit cityscape are both disorienting and mesmerizing, pushing the boundaries of narrative cinema.Peep Show (TV Series, 2003-2015) - This British comedy series is known for its extensive use of POV shots, giving viewers a literal view into the minds of the main characters. One memorable scene involves Mark, one of the protagonists, at a job interview, providing both humor and pathos from his direct perspective.The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007) - This film tells the true story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, paralyzed except for one eye. The scenes shot from his POV, particularly when communicating via blinking, are profound and deeply personal, highlighting the power of POV in conveying internal experiences.Edge of Tomorrow utilizes POV shots effectively, especially in the battle scenes where Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) relives the same day repeatedly. Each reset gives the audience a direct view of his growing desperation and skill, enhancing the film's intense action and sci-fi narrative. Rugrats While not traditionally known for POV shots, Rugrats often employs a low-angle perspective that mimics how toddlers might view the world. This approach is cleverly used to make everyday settings appear larger and more adventurous, encapsulating the show's charm and appeal to its young audience.Today's episode promises an exciting exploration of POV scenes across different genres and formats. Join us as we dive into these films and shows, experiencing first-hand the power of this immersive technique. Whether it's the intense action of Edge of Tomorrow or the playful world of Rugrats, there's a lot to appreciate and discuss.
SEASON 2 - EPISODE 115 - Dominic Tuohy - Special Effects Supervisor Special effects supervisor Dominic Tuohy (THE BATMAN, 1917, EDGE OF TOMORROW) joins us in this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast to discuss the craft of special effects. With a father active in the film industry, Dom was taken in by the special effects team at Pinewood Studios at an early age, and he's been working in the department for the past 40 years. Throughout the episode, we discuss the invaluable verisimilitude of special effects, and Dom muses over the magic inherent to filmmaking's smoke and mirrors. He later unmasks the secrets behind pulling off the Batmobile chase in THE BATMAN, and we learn how stunt coordinator Rob Alonzo creatively spent his time during the pandemic induced pause in production to pre-visualize the sequence. Dom also reveals the painstaking (and sometimes painful) work that he and his team endure to push the envelope and make an effect even better. Towards the end of the conversation, Dom reveals how he advises any young person interested in making a life out of making movies, and we reflect on the high price (and deep pleasure) of working in the industry. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
On the 39th episode of Bomb Squad Matinee, Tanner, Austin, and Tim discuss the 2014 Doug Liman-directed Tom Cruise vehicle Edge of Tomorrow (a.k.a. Live. Die. Repeat.).

Fall back in time with Legends Podcast! All month long, we're talking about time travel, paradoxes, and resetting the day with your demise. When PR officer William Cage (played by Tom Cruise) is unwillingly sent into combat against an invading alien army, he unwittingly gains the power to rewind time… but only if he dies. He teams up with war hero Rita Vrataski (played by Emily Blunt), who previously had the same power, to attempt to defeat an alien horde that uses time as a weapon - by living, dying, and repeating. Directed by Bourne Identity helmer Doug Liman, this 2014 sci-fi actioner based on the Japanese novel All You Need Is Kill was a box office hit and established Blunt's status as an action hero. Ten years later, we're reviewing Edge of Tomorrow as our 700th episode and the kickoff to our annual tradition of watching time travel movies in November. This is Chronovember!

And we're becoming Tom Cruise scream truthers: buckle up for a cavalcade of death yelps! Come Live, Die, Repeat with us!Next time on the pod we're visiting a stone-cold classic for its 50th anniversary: Francis Ford Coppola's THE CONVERSATION!

The Fault in Our Stars has the opposite problem of cinema's first (abandoned) attempt at a Fantastic Four movie, a great Tom Cruise movie with a bad title, Sopranos penultimate finale, Harry Potter movies click into gear, the greatest abortion comedy ever made, and Game of Throne and Silicon Valley hit series highs!
Despite all the success of the Mad Max films, Furiosa was a box office disaster! (What is going on this year??) Despite that, we're discussing two great sci-fi action films, Alien and Edge of Tomorrow! Have you seen both of these movies? What do you think of them?
