The summer of Superman begins with Shua's birthday! So we kick it off with a Super celebration. Jovial Jay travels across the country to join his buddy for his special day. It's a Metropolis-sized episode of Enjoy Stuff! Even Lex Luthor knows it's a big deal when a new Superman movie comes out. Jovial Jay and Shua hang out together with the family to experience the premiere of the biggest movie of the summer and reminisce about their experience with the Man of Tomorrow.    News Nine Inch Nails say their TRON soundtrack is going to be epically industrial Now that we're all growed up, we need an adult Chuck E. Cheese. And now we have one. Your wish to have more commercials before movies is now a reality thanks to AMC Theaters Michael J.

On the way he enjoyed some very cool landmarks. And they had tons of fun when they were together. Shua recommends the newest documentary that celebrates the 5th anniversary of Steven Spielberg's classic film Jaws. It's a very well-made film by Laurent Bouzereau that documents the classic for future generations.     Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay examines the highly anticipated adaptation of the classic Enders Game. While it included much of what was in the book, the film failed to successfully adapt the story in a satisfying way. Jay explains his thoughts and why he thinks it didn't quite work.

In 1978, when Christopher Reeve brought the Man of Steel to the big screen in a way that nobody had ever experienced, it changed the superhero genre forever.

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy review nine movies for you this week with four of them coming in a unique bundle. Those include a group of friends sheltering in place when they believe a nuclear missile is coming for them (Nuked), a pregnant woman confined to a house when a mysterious man threatens her safety (Push), an introvert and an extrovert confined to an apartment trying to avoid becoming one with the world (Else) and another couple on the outs stuck in an apartment complex seemingly with no way out (Brick). Beyond that there is the implication that Van Helsing was not the man he said he was (Abraham's Boys) nor do the lucid dreams of a grieving man reflect the reality of his relationship (Daniela Forever). Steven Spielberg's immortal masterpiece celebrates a birthday with a new documentary (Jaws@50: The Definitive Inside Story). Jacob Tremblay comes to realize his anti-government father may not be the best role model (Sovereign). Finally, Steve gets to throw in his two cents on this week's big comic book reboot (Superman).1:02 - Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story11:44 - Nuked18:40 - Push22:46 - Else27:10 - Brick38:09 - Daniela Forever45:46 - Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story1:01:41 - Sovereign1:18:55 - SupermanCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTSIGN UP TODAYBe sure to check outChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

It is with heavy hearts that we have to push back our release schedule one week. Actually, no, our hearts are light and full of joy. A new baby has been added to House Stokes in the form of past guest Elliott (from the Home Alone 2 episode) and his lovely wife having a baby. Said baby was just very inconsiderate in arriving at precisely the time we were set to record our Fast Five episode. So, it'll be here in a week. All will be well.   In the meantime, we're flashing back to last summer when it was the Summer of Spielberg, and we're giving you one of our most popular episodes, the Jurassic Park episode featuring AJ and Kristie from the In Love With Horror podcast.   The Summer of Spielberg continues as Laci and Matt were able to buckle their seatbelts in time for their helicopter to land on Isla Nublar, where they meet up with AJ & Kristie from the In Love With Horror podcast to talk about Jurassic Park (1993). The four team up for a rollicking podcast so good it'll have you shouting “Hello John!” at total strangers.   First of all, this famous action/horror/sci-fi/disaster epic has like 50 incredible lines of dialogue! So we just spend some time saying these lines at each other. But eventually we get into it, talking about the history of Michael Crichton's novel and its adaptation by Steven Spielberg. Then we take a close look at the movie, wondering just how bad of a boss John Hammond must be and what exactly is the nature of his relationship with Ian Malcolm.   Also, apparently John Hammond was originally intended to sing a song explaining how Jurassic Park works? Instead they did the Mr. DNA thing, but we would love to hear that song. Who knows... maybe we will.   Please check out the great In Love With Horror podcast on Apple Podcast (https://apple.co/4b80RX2), Spotify (https://bit.ly/3KYfbXe), or YouTube (https://bit.ly/4btwtqp), and support them on Patreon (https://bit.ly/3VV0jzy).    Watch this episode in full: https://youtu.be/o2RueFt2rC8   Time stamps: 00:09:41 — Our histories with Jurassic Park 00:30:05 — History segment: Career overview of Jurassic Park author Michael Crichton; overview of Spielberg's career since 1982; and a brief overview of the production of the movie 00:48:16 — In-depth movie discussion 01:13:14 — John Hammond's deleted musical number 01:54:35 — Final thoughts and star ratings   Artwork by Laci Roth.   Music by Rural Route Nine.

We learned about dino DNA for the first time in 1993 with the first Jurassic Park movie. That DNA must have staying power but they're still churning out Jurassic movies 32 years later. This time, in “Jurassic World: Rebirth”, it's Scarlett Johanssen, post-Black Widow, taking the lead. She plays Zora, a merc hired by a questionable pharmaceutical rep to help a dinosaur expert get access to a forbidden area where dinosaurs still roam free. This is all to get some dino DNA to help cure heart disease. Is it worth going to the theater to find out what happens next? Check out this episode to find out! “Jurassic World: Rebirth” also stars Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Luna Blaise, David Iacano and Ed Skrein. Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

Flight 44: If it moves on wheels at Disneyland, it was probably designed by 93-year old Disney Legend and Thea Lifetime Achievement recipient, Bob Gurr.   Walt Disney was so impressed with his knowledge and skill, that he invited Bob Gurr to join WED Enterprises to design the very first Autopia cars that debuted at Disneyland in 1955. Over the past 74 years, Bob has made transportation magic worldwide, developing such legendary Disneyland ride vehicles as the Monorail, the Flying Saucers, the Haunted Mansion “Doom Buggies," the Submarine Voyage sub fleet, the PeopleMover, and the Matterhorn Bobsleds. After “retiring” in 1981, Bob went on to co-found Sequoia Creative and design the massive King Kong animatronic for Universal Studios Hollywood. He designed the flying spaceship for the 1984 Olympics opening ceremonies, effects for The Jacksons' Victory tour, and dinosaurs for Steven Spielberg's “Jurassic Park.” Plan now to join us as Bob climbs aboard a vehicle with no wheels for a journey across ten decades on one of the most incredible time travel adventures we've ever had!

Dana and Tom with returning guests Klarissa (I've Seen That One (IG)) and Ralph Esparza (Film Producer) re-revisit Jaws (1975) for its 50th Anniversary: directed by Steven Spielberg, written by Peter Benchley and Carl Gottlieb, cinematography by Bill Butler, score by John Williams, starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, and Richard Dreyfuss.Plot Summary: Jaws is a masterclass in cinematic suspense, a film that grips the audience with primal fear and refuses to let go. Directed with surgical precision by a young Steven Spielberg, it tells the story of a seaside town terrorized by a great white shark—an unseen menace that lurks beneath the surface both literally and metaphorically. Roy Scheider's Chief Brody, caught between political pressure and his own conscience, anchors the human drama, while Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw provide texture as a scientist and a grizzled fisherman, respectively.But the real triumph of Jaws is its restraint. The mechanical shark's frequent malfunctions forced Spielberg to show less, and in doing so, he created more: more tension, more imagination, more terror. John Williams' iconic score doesn't just accompany the action—it is the shark. What emerges is not just a thriller, but a work of art that understands the mechanics of fear and the anatomy of heroism. It's not about a shark; it's about the people who must confront it—and, by extension, themselves.Guests:KlarissaI've Seen That One (IG)Previously on Roman Holiday (1953) RevisitRalph Esparza (Film Producer)Credited on Tollbooth, Mad House, Killer Date, An Occasional Hell, and One Degree Celcius@ralph_esparza on IGPreviously on Magnolia (1999)Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome Back Klarissa and Ralph03:11 Relationship(s) with Jaws15:34 Cast of Jaws16:32 Why Doesn't Jaws Seem to Age as Much as Its Comtemporaries?23:23 What is Jaws About?33:07 Background for Jaws38:33 Jaws Success - Accident or Genius?40:35 Plot Summary for Jaws42:05 Did You Know?45:51 First Break46:48 What's Happening with Klarissa and Ralph49:38 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy52:20 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance54:22 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty59:24 Second Break01:00:07 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:06:28 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:15:15 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:17:57 In Memoriam01:19:55 Remaining Questions for Jaws01:33:22 Thank You to Klarissa and Ralph01:35:30 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter,

In today's episode, Embeth shares the extraordinary journey that shaped her voice as a storyteller—from her upbringing in apartheid-era South Africa to her unexpected entry into acting through a university drama program. She reflects on being discovered in a play by a William Morris agent, catching Spielberg's attention through a TV movie, and ultimately choosing to pause her career to raise a family. That pause led to a creative reawakening and a nine-year quest to adapt a memoir into her directorial debut, Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight. Embeth offers heartfelt, hard-earned wisdom on the power of saying “yes,” surprising yourself in auditions, and writing what you know. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Embeth Davidtz right here.

This week, Tommy is joined by David Iacono, who is currently starring in “Jurassic World Rebirth.” The film has become one of the biggest movie releases of the year. When he’s not dodging terrifying dinosaurs, you may have seen David in "Dead Boy Detectives," "Fear Street: Prom Queen" and the fan-favorite series, “The Summer I Turned Pretty.” Today, David opens up about never-before-told stories from his time filming the latest installment of the Jurassic Park franchise (like that random FaceTime from Steven Spielberg while on set in Thailand), having to drown in one of his most heart-racing scenes, and what filming with dinosaurs - what he calls “tennis balls on sticks” - is really like. We also celebrate his character Cam on “The Summer I Turned Pretty” and find out if he is Team Conrad or Team Jeremiah, what he has learned about himself through playing Cam, and that epic cast group chat. And David shares so much more that you won’t hear anywhere else, including something powerful that he has never said before.Subscribe, rate, and review this episode if you enjoyed this conversation!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Koepp previously co-wrote the original Jurassic Park film (1993) and wrote its sequel, The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997). Development of Rebirth was first reported in January 2024. Edwards was hired as director a month later, and casting commenced shortly thereafter. Principal photography took place in Thailand, Malta, and the United Kingdom from June to September 2024.Jurassic World Rebirth premiered on June 17, 2025, at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London, and was released in the United States and Canada by Universal Pictures on July 2.

Gareth Edwards People love some dinosaur action on the big screen.  Since 1993, Jurassic Park and Jurassic World films have made billions of dollars in the box office.  The Jurassic World Trilogy ended in 2022 with what should have been the final installment, Jurassic World: Dominion.  Yet, in 2025, we got another installment that is as confused about what it wants to do as we are to receive it.  Rebirth leaves alot to be desired, battling Dominion and Fallen Kingdom for the right to be called the worst film in the franchise.      0:00:00 - Introductions and Banter 0:08:00 - Box Office 0:15:30 - Trailer- The Odyssey, Dir.

This week, the full complement of Regular Joes, Barry, Brian, Dave, Derryl, and Tod take a moment to recognize two summer blockbusters that have reached milestone anniversaries. Steven Spielberg‘s Jaws (1975) which is looking pretty good at the half century mark. And Robert Zemeckis' Back to the Future (1985) the film that earned Marty McFly, Doc Brown and the DeLorean (the cyber truck of its era) permanent positions, in pop culture. What made them stand out back in the day?  What about the parade of sequels that followed each of these films? And, what's more frightening, a twenty-five-foot great white, or parking with your horny 17 year old mom? There's also the usual topics and Round of What's in the Box. Thanks for listening!

As though starring in a new Jurassic World movie isn't a big enough deal, Luna Blaise also boasts an especially exciting franchise achievement. She's right smack in the middle of one of the most iconic set pieces from Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park novel, a set piece that was famously cut from Steven Spielberg's original film.In Jurassic World Rebirth, Blaise plays Teresa Delgado. Just before starting her first year at college, Teresa takes a boat trip with her father (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), her little sister (Audrina Miranda), and her boyfriend (David Iacono). Little do they know, they're sailing through Mosasaurs territory. Fortunately, Scarlett Johansson's Zora Bennett and her team swoop in to save them, but the Mosasaurs sets its sights on their boat instead and the entire group winds up stranded on Ile Saint-Hubert, an island that InGen once used to run a secret R&D facility.While trying to make their way to a rumored village on the island, Teresa and her family are left with no choice but to steal an inflatable raft right out from under a sleeping T-Rex's nose and ride it down river to get them closer to this supposed safe haven.With Jurassic World Rebirth now playing in theaters nationwide, Blaise joined me for a Collider Ladies Night conversation to revisit her journey to the franchise, a journey that included two hit TV shows - Fresh Off the Boat and Manifest. She also recapped her Jurassic World audition, revealed her character's backstory, explained why she thinks of Garcia-Rulfo and Iacono as family, and, of course, walked me through exactly what it was like to film that river raft scene.
