For many of us, Fred Savage was an important part of our formative years, thanks to his roles in The Wonder Years and The Princess Bride. He's also an established director and producer, but for watch enthusiasts, he's famous for another on-screen role — Hodinkee's Talking Watches, in which he appeared in 2018. We caught up with Savage to see what he's been up to since, and it turns out — quite a lot. We caught up with Savage to see what he's been up to since, and it turns out — quite a lot. He has started Timepiece Grading Specialists, a business that promises to empower collectors, sellers, and buyers to navigate the world of vintage and pre-owned watches with confidence.

Tim Williams from 80's Flick Flashback and Nicholas Pepin of Pop Culture Roulette did, and they're with me to talk about “Vice Versa!”Upon returning from a buying trip abroad for the department store where he works, divorced executive Marshall finds that he is in possession of a strange ornamental skull. He is looking after his 11-year-old son Charlie for a few days. The skull has special powers, and when Marshall and Charlie simultaneously wish they were each other's age, they switch bodies. Now Charlie must go to work, and Marshall must go to school. Charlie must also deal with Marshall's girlfriend Sam. Furthermore, a smuggling duo is in pursuit of the skull. Can the father/son combo switch back before the smugglers get to them? Will they save the day? Eventually, yes they will. Also, it's a bit creepy that Charlie has kissed his dad's girlfriend.Ancient mystical artifact? Check. Bumbling antagonists? Of course. Impromptu proposal? Only if your spirit is in your dad's body!

Yes, Mr. Arnold's death, Paul's going to Harvard, and Winnie to a long and successful career on the Hallmark Channel were all disturbing outcomes, but this is much worse. This SVU shows little Kevin Arnold beating, raping, and then re-victimizing women across the Upper West Side.

That's a good thing too because it's our theme for this next round of picks.What better film to kick things off and put us in the mood for romance but the classic 1987 film, The Princess Bride. Based on the 1973 William Goldman novel and brought to us by the wizard of love himself Rob Reiner this film stars Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, Fred Savage, Andre the Giant and a host of others. It holds a special place in our hearts and we hope you can enjoy it with your own special someone.As usual we veer off on tangents but try to stay on topic and dig into what is a romance movie really. Finally, we respond to the question we know you're burning for us to answer... are we romantic?

Today's guest is a true legend. Fred Savage is an actor, producer, and director, best known for his roles in front of the camera in The Wonder Years and The Princess Bride after getting his big break in a commercial for Pac-Man Children's Chewable Multi-Vitamin. He's also a watch collector who I've seen get excited about vintage Gallet, Patek, and everything in between.You might also recognize Fred from his 2018 Talking Watches episode. Since then, he's become a fixture in the vintage watch world, and I always look forward to crossing paths with him at shows, auctions, or meetups. Ben Clymer also joins the show, and we discuss Fred's evolution as a collector since his Talking Watches episode, some of his more offbeat finds, and how watches have become something for the whole family in the Savage house. Thanks for listening, and we hope you enjoy this week's episode of Hodinkee Radio.

When it comes to classic films that have left an indelible mark on pop culture, few stand out as vividly as The Princess Bride (1987). Directed by Rob Reiner and adapted from William Goldman's novel of the same name, this film is a rare gem that effortlessly blends adventure, romance, and comedy into a story that continues to captivate audiences across generations. In the latest episode of Born to Watch, Whitey and Damo are joined by our great American mates from the Middle Aged Movie Podcast to explore what makes this film such a cherished piece of cinematic history. It's clear that The Princess Bride is much more than just a fairy tale; it's a cinematic masterpiece that remains as relevant and enchanting today as it was over three decades ago.A Genre-Defying StoryThe Princess Bride defies easy categorisation. At its core, it's a love story between the beautiful Buttercup (Robin Wright) and her devoted farmhand, Westley (Cary Elwes). But describing it merely as a love story would be a disservice to its richness of narrative. The film is a tapestry woven with fantasy, adventure, comedy, and satire elements. It masterfully parodies the tropes of traditional fairy tales while embracing them, creating a unique, sincere and self-aware tone. The film's brilliant use of a framing device—a grandfather (Peter Falk) reading a book to his sick grandson (Fred Savage)—immediately sets the stage for a tale that is both nostalgic and timeless. This storytelling method allows the film to break the fourth wall and engage the audience directly, making it feel like we, too, are being told a story by a beloved family member. This technique highlights the film's storytelling theme as a powerful and enduring form of connection, resonating deeply with viewers of all ages.Iconic Characters and PerformancesOne of the most memorable aspects of The Princess Bride is its cast of unforgettable characters, brought to life by an ensemble of actors who deliver some of the most iconic performances in cinematic history. Cary Elwes as Westley perfectly embodies the quintessential hero—charming, witty, and endlessly resourceful. His journey from farm boy to the legendary Dread Pirate Roberts is one of the film's most satisfying arcs, and Elwes' performance balances swashbuckling action with deadpan humour, making Westley both a classic and a modern hero. In her film debut, Robin Wright plays Buttercup with a delicate balance of strength and vulnerability. While her character is often the damsel in distress, Wright's portrayal adds depth to Buttercup, making her more than a passive love interest. She gracefully embodies the film's central love story, making the audience root for her and Westley's reunion.Mandy Patinkin's Inigo Montoya, the vengeful Spaniard seeking to avenge his father's death, delivers one of the most famous lines in film history: “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” Patinkin's portrayal infuses the character with a passion and sincerity that make Inigo's quest one of the film's most emotionally resonant subplots.Wallace Shawn as Vizzini, the cunning Sicilian whose overconfidence leads to one of the most entertaining battles of wits ever captured on film, is hilarious and memorable. His repeated exclamations of “Inconceivable!” have become a catchphrase that has outlived the movie.And, of course, André the Giant as Fezzik, the gentle giant with a heart of gold, is another standout. André's natural charisma and physical presence make Fezzik one of the film's most endearing characters, providing comic relief and emotional warmth.A Perfect Blend of Humour and HeartIts seamless blend of humour and heart sets The Princess Bride apart. William Goldman's screenplay is filled with sharp, witty dialogue that keeps the audience laughing, but it never sacrifices the story's emotional core. The humour is often self-referential and playful, poking fun at the conventions of the genre while also delivering genuine moments of tenderness and affection.The film's pacing is another key factor in its enduring appeal. At a brisk 98 minutes, The Princess Bride never overstays its welcome. Each scene serves a purpose, whether advancing the plot, deepening the characters, or delivering a memorable line that will be quoted for years to come. The balance of action, romance, and comedy ensures something for everyone, making it a perfect family film that appeals to both children and adults.Cinematography and Score: Enhancing the FantasyThe visual and auditory elements of The Princess Bride play a significant role in creating its fairy-tale atmosphere. The cinematography by Adrian Biddle captures the beauty and whimsy of the film's various settings, from the rolling hills of Florin to the foreboding Cliffs of Insanity. The use of practical effects and on-location shooting gives the film a timeless quality that CGI-heavy movies often lack.Mark Knopfler's score further enhances the film's enchanting mood. The music is both romantic and adventurous, perfectly complementing the tone of the story. Knopfler's theme for The Princess Bride is instantly recognisable, its gentle melodies evoking the nostalgia and magic that defines the film.A Cultural PhenomenonSince its release, The Princess Bride has grown from a modest box-office success to a full-fledged cultural phenomenon. Its influence can be seen in countless other films, TV shows, and even video games that have drawn inspiration from its blend of romance, adventure, and humour. The film's dialogue has become so ingrained in popular culture that even those who haven't seen it can often recognise its most famous lines.Moreover, The Princess Bride has inspired a fiercely loyal fan base that spans multiple generations. Its appeal lies in its universal themes of love, bravery, and the triumph of good over evil. These themes resonate with audiences of all ages, making it a film that parents are eager to share with their children, ensuring its legacy for years.Conclusion: A Tale for the AgesThe Princess Bride (1987) is more than just a movie; it's an experience that transports viewers into a world where true love conquers all, where heroes are brave and resourceful, and where even the most diabolical villains have a touch of humour. Its perfect blend of romance, adventure, and comedy, combined with unforgettable characters and iconic dialogue, makes it a timeless classic that continues to enchant audiences nearly four decades after its release.At Born to Watch, we believe that in a cinematic landscape often dominated by franchises and reboots, The Princess Bride stands out as a reminder of the power of original storytelling. It's a film that doesn't rely on spectacle or special effects but on the strength of its characters, the wit of its script, and the sincerity of its heart. For these reasons and many more, The Princess Bride remains a beloved favourite, a movie that future generations will cherish.For those who have yet to experience the magic of The Princess Bride, there's no better time than now. And for those who have already fallen under its spell, it's always worth revisiting, if only to remind yourself that true love, as Westley famously declares, “is the greatest thing in the world.”Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcasthttps://www.borntowatch.com....
What's up, dudes? It's time for another Christmas-adjacent episode! This time, I've got the Saturday Morning Mafia with me to talk about “The Princess Bride!” Yep, it's Christmas time, and Columbo—erm, Peter Falk—reads his sick grandson a fantasy story. There's fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles... in other words, it doesn't sound too bad. Westley the farm boy falls in love with Buttercup. When he goes off to seek fortune to marry her, his ship is lost at sea. Years pass, and Buttercup is now betrothed to Prince Humperdinck. Suddenly, she's kidnapped by a giant, a Spaniard fencer, and a criminal mastermind. A mysterious man in black eventually rescues and reclaims her, and reveals himself to be her Wesley.Unfortunately, it's all a plot to start a war, and Buttercup's murder will be the inciting scapegoat. Consequently, Westley is mostly killed, and the Spaniard and giant revive him with help from a disgraced Billy Crystal…I mean, Miracle Max. With their assets combined, they bluff their way into the castle, get revenge on all the baddies, and escape to live happily ever after. Oh, and there's some kissing in it too.Fred Savage? Yep. Andre the Giant? Got him. Masters of the Universe toys and Santas in the background! Inconceivable!!

When over 100 million people watch something, there is no way we can avoid talking about it. We discuss our favorite trailers from this year's Super Bowl. And yes we chose to talk about Knuckles instead of Wicked. And was there a commercial for Scientology during the big game or are people just messing with us?Bram Stoker is a horror icon, but not in the same way as other creators like Stephen King or John Carpenter. Stoker is known for Dracula and nothing else. It is the rare case where the work has completely overshadowed the author. Still, "Bram Stoker's Dracula' still carries a lot of weight to many more than just horror audiences.But when you ask people to name any of Stoker's other works, the question will probably be met with a blank stare. in 1988, director Ken Russell gifted the world with his take on The Lair of the White Worm. Sexy, sensual, frightening, and an assault on the senses, the film is an underrated gem that we could not say enough good things about as hard as we tried.After school specials went away a long time ago, but those who are old enough, remember them fondly. Though it was a Lifetime movie, 1996's No One Would Tell definitely fits in the category. Its story of a high school girl being abused by her boyfriend is a powerful one that remained with anyone who saw it.But how well does it work in 2024? Putting aside how strange it is to see Fred Savage and Candance Cameron star in a movie about respecting women, it is a very effective movie. There are some poor writing decisions that are impossible to ignore, but the tension, pacing, and overall tone make for an impactful watch.

What's up, dudes? NES was the greatest thing ever in the '80s! In fact, it was so great they made a feature film about it! I've got Mike Westfall of Advent Calendar House and Chad Young from Horror Movie BBQ here with me to dive into the 1989 Fred Savage movie “The Wizard!” It was a December release that capitalized on the Christmas season to help sell video games.Brothers Corey and Jimmy Woods are being separated by their parents' divorce. Jimmy is a slightly autistic young boy who has had problems and PTSD ever since his twin sister died at a young age. One day, Corey discovers that Jimmy has a natural talent for playing video games, and the two journey to the West Coast to compete in a video-game championship. They want to prove that Jimmy doesn't belong in an institution.Along the way, they evade the adults who are trying to take Jimmy away, especially the bounty hunter Putnam. The duo also meet Haley Brooks from Reno, who helps them scam their way to the big Video Armageddon competition. Jimmy makes it to the finals and even manages to defeat local phenom Lucas. Oh, and he finally gets closure by leaving his most treasured possession at a tourist spot special to him and his sister. Mega Man 2? Yep. Double Dragon? Uh huh. Super Mario Bros. 3?! Only if you don't use the Power Glove! So grab your lunchbox, hop on your skateboard, and hitch a ride to this episode on “The Wizard!”Advent Calendar HouseFB: @adventcalendarhouseTwitter: @adventcalhouseIG: @adventcalendarhouseHorror Movie BBQFB: @HorrorMovieBBQTwitter: @HorrorMovieBBQIG: @horrormoviebbqCheck us out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com!

Star of stage and screen, film and television, voice over and live action, Parvesh Cheena's list of credits is expansive -- and you've almost certainly seen or heard him in SOMETHING (Barbershop? Outsourced? Crazy Ex-Girlfriend? Mythic Quest? The Mandalorian?). Parvesh has carved out a place for himself as a character actor -- a position that has at times been a little lonely, and a little strange. As for seeing himself on screen? Even as a kid, he looked to some of the biggest, weirdest characters of them all: Danny Devito's Penguin in BATMAN RETURNS and Mike Myers as Dr. Evil in the AUSTIN POWERS movies.Michelle Pfeiffer whip stuntNiecy Nash-Betts's Emmys acceptance speech***With Jordan Crucchiola and Parvesh Cheena

Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers for Warriors of the Wasteland, I mean if you can actually ruin this movie? “Again that's what I love about these movies.

Lil' Fred Savage is unwell so naturally his Papa Columbo (Peter Falk) comes to pinch his cheeks read him a family favorite. A tale that sees a young farm boy, Westley (Cary Elwes) leaving the only eligible girl in Florin, Buttercup (Robin Wright) behind to seek an unspecified fortune abroad. During his 5 year absence, Prince Humperdinck (Chris Sarandon) snatches her up for his bride. His motives are far from noble as his plan is to hire Vizzini (Wallace Shawn), Fezzik (Andre the Giant) and Inigo Montoya (Mandy Patinkin) to kidnap Buttercup, kill her, and frame Florin for it in order to start a war. Things get complicated when the Dread Pirate Roberts shows up, Inigo finds the 6 fingered man (Christopher Guest), and The Machine gets turned up to 50. A story of adventure, miracles, true love, and revenge. The Princess Bride, this week on Doom Generation.
