Sich nach einem Film in einer Review so richtig auszulassen – das lässt die Herzen aller Film-Geeks höher schlagen... doch ob man nur anhand dieser Reviews herausfinden kann, um welchen Film es geht? Dieser Frage gehen Lenny, Jonas und Alper auf den Grund, in einem Quiz mit einigen der notgeilsten Reviews, die Letterboxd zu bieten hat. Außerdem geht es (mal wieder) um Jonas Sand-Theorie und wie immer auch um die neuen Film- und Serienstarts der Woche. Dabei reden wir um Kino-Größen wie Marvels CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD, den kleinen, aber feinen Film HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS und den Start mit dem wohl süßesten Poster aller Zeiten: HUNDSCHULDIG! Und damit herzlich willkommen bei CINEMA STRIKES BACK!

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Ep 251: Nazi's. We hate Nazi's. But we love today's episode - Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny! Dr. Jones refuses to retire and so do we as your hosts dust off all the old artifacts, grab our hat and whip, and try to recapture the magic that made this franchise so special. Clicks.

It's been over a month since our last ep, and that means lots of summer movies to catch up with on Film Geek Central!First up, the long-awaited film adaptation of one of our favorite TV shows, THE A-TEAM. This one actually has some great casting in front of and behind the camera.GET HIM TO THE GREEK is the film we've been nicknaming, "That Film with the Guys We Hate." True, we're not big fans of Jonah Hill or Russell Brand. But will this be as funny as everyone says?SEX AND THE CITY 2 is the sequel to the TV show about formerly promiscuous women who have everything handed to them and still find plenty to complain about.PRINCE OF PERSIA is the newest video game adaptation, this one from Jerry Bruckheimer and Company. We know Jake Gyllenhaal can romance cowboys and talk with mutant bunnies, but can he carry an action film?SPLICE is a low-budget horror film which was nonetheless given a huge push for the summer. We've been wanting a good monster movie for a long time, so hopefully this is it.SHREK FOREVER AFTER rounds out the animated epic with everyone coming back for the last roundup.ROBIN HOOD is the epic Ridley Scott film that is sort of about Robin Hood and sort of needs to bring in a lot of that international box office to keep the people at Universal from crying themselves to sleep.All of this plus film news and our DVD Picks the W- well, since the last time we had a show.The whole thing happens this Sunday at 8:00 PM Eastern / 7:00 PM Central. Hope to see you there, Film Geeks! It's great to be back!

The summer movie season is here and whether it's Tony Stark's armor or Freddy Krueger's fingers this show is all about METAL!!! IRON MAN 2 is bound to be a huge hit. This sequel to the 2008 film brings Robert Downey Jr. back as the hero. In addition to Gwyneth Paltrow and Don Cheadle (replacing Terrence Howard), Tony Stark must also contend with Scarlett Johnansen, Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke. Marvel Comics produced this one, which is almost always a good sign.A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET is the remake of Wes Craven's 1984 horror classic. Jackie Earle Haley (WATCHMEN, SHUTTER ISLAND) plays Freddy Krueger this time out in a remake that is more like the gritty original than the humorous sequels.FURRY VENGEANCE is not an internet fetish site, but a new family comedy starring Brendan Fraser. When a real estate developer is about to knock down a nature preserve, the animals of the forest strike back. Hilarity ensues, we hope.THE LOSERS is another comic adaptation, this one a tongue-in-cheek action title from a few years back. A special forces crew is believed dead after a double-cross. They return to the United States in a bid to take out the man who set them up.Finally, THE SECRET OF KELLS is a critically-acclaimed animated film which is only now hitting the United States. It was nominated for a Best Animated Film Oscar, alongside such films as UP and CORALINE.We'll be covering all this plus film news and our DVD Picks of the Week!Hope to see you there, Film Geeks!

She reached out to his family for support, bringing the film to emotional boiling point.DEFENDOR made it to a handful of theatres before premiering on DVD this week.

Matt Damon re-unites with director Paul Greengrass for this story about a U.N. soldier who uncovers a conspiracy in war-torn Iraq.ALICE IN WONDERLAND was a powerhouse at the box office last week. Tim Burton's take on Lewis Carrol's classic tale is more of a sequel than a retelling. At 19 years-old, Alice falls down a rabbit hole and back into Wonderland. And it appears they've been waiting for her.SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE is a new R-rated romantic comedy in which a nerdy airport security man falls for a beautiful woman. But his insecurities get the better of him when he continually asks what she's doing with a loser like him.BROOKLYN'S FINEST is an ensemble piece that reunites the writer and director of TRAINING DAY. In three interconnecting stories, we follow Brooklyn police officers, each in the midst of their own personal crisis that bleeds over on the job.A PROPHET is a critically-acclaimed French film that is being called one of the greatest post-modern crime epics. The film involves a young Arab man becomes a bigwig in the mob from behind bars.All this plus film news and our DVD Picks of the Week.Hope to see you there, Film Geeks!

Hey hey, it's our 50th episode of Film Geek Central! Feel free to applaud.First, we're finally getting a look at COP OUT. Now, Austin named this his Least Awaited Film of 2009. If you only saw the original trailer, that's understandable. However, glimpses at several Red Band (read: uncensored) clips have put that in doubt. Will Kevin Smith's cop comedy surprise us all?THE CRAZIES is a film in which several laid back townspeople become infected with a mysterious sickness that turns them into crazed killers. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? But remember, this is a remake of George Romero's underrated film from 1974. That's right, in the world of mordern horror, Romero did everything first.44 INCH CHEST boasts a cast of some of the most talented actors from across the pond. Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, John Hurt, Tom Wilkinson, Stephen Dillane and Joanne Whalley all star in this crime film/psychodrama about a group of friends who take revenge on the man who has been sleeping with one of their wives.THE LAST STATION finally comes to Scott's neck of the woods, which means we can finally review it. This acclaimed film has already nabbed several awards nominations, including Oscar noms for Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer.All this plus Oscar predictions, film news and our DVD Picks of the Week!

Hey hey, it's our 50th episode of Film Geek Central! Feel free to applaud.First, we're finally getting a look at COP OUT. Now, Austin named this his Least Awaited Film of 2009. If you only saw the original trailer, that's understandable. However, glimpses at several Red Band (read: uncensored) clips have put that in doubt. Will Kevin Smith's cop comedy surprise us all?THE CRAZIES is a film in which several laid back townspeople become infected with a mysterious sickness that turns them into crazed killers. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? But remember, this is a remake of George Romero's underrated film from 1974. That's right, in the world of mordern horror, Romero did everything first.44 INCH CHEST boasts a cast of some of the most talented actors from across the pond. Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, John Hurt, Tom Wilkinson, Stephen Dillane and Joanne Whalley all star in this crime film/psychodrama about a group of friends who take revenge on the man who has been sleeping with one of their wives.THE LAST STATION finally comes to Scott's neck of the woods, which means we can finally review it. This acclaimed film has already nabbed several awards nominations, including Oscar noms for Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer.All this plus Oscar predictions, film news and our DVD Picks of the Week!

Expect lots of jumping and kicking.We'll also take a look at NORTH FACE, a film that details the adventures of a few mountain climbers as they strive to achieve their goals despite an unforgiving landscape.Finally, SERAPHINE is a film that was released to a number of territories already. It's the true story of Séraphine de Senlis, a modest woman from a common background who was discovered late in life to be an amazingly talented painter.As usual, we'll cover all these films, plus bring you the newest movie news and our DVD Picks of the Week.Hope to see you there, Film Geeks!
