Podcast appearances and mentions of Joel Schumacher

Hay películas malas. Hay películas muy malas. Y luego está Batman & Robin, una obra cinematográfica tan fascinante en su desastre que casi merece ser estudiada por científicos. En este programa nos lanzamos sin red a analizar una de las películas más polémicas de la historia del cine de superhéroes. La cinta que consiguió que Gotham pareciera una discoteca gigante, que los trajes tuvieran más plástico que una juguetería y que los villanos compitieran por ver quién soltaba el peor juego de palabras. Repasamos el delirante espectáculo dirigido por Joel Schumacher, con un reparto encabezado por George Clooney como Batman, acompañado por Robin, Batgirl, una Poison Ivy capaz de seducir a media ciudad y un Mr. Freeze interpretado por Arnold Schwarzenegger, que parece decidido a congelar Gotham a base de chistes horribles. Hablamos de sus efectos visuales, de sus decisiones creativas imposibles, de sus infames pezones en los trajes, de cómo casi manda al banquillo a Batman durante años y de por qué, pese a todo, se ha convertido en una película de culto para muchos aficionados al cine más disparatado. ¿Es realmente tan mala como se dice? ¿Tiene más virtudes de las que recordamos? ¿O estamos ante uno de los mayores accidentes de tráfico de la historia del blockbuster moderno? Con Miguel Ángel, Frikilandias, Ricky y el Mamado Lidel, en una charla cargada de risas, incredulidad, nostalgia noventera y toneladas de hielo. Porque si vamos a hablar de Batman & Robin, lo mínimo es sufrir juntos. Ponte cómodo, prepara el bat-repelente para tiburones y recuerda una cosa: en este programa nadie está a salvo de los chistes de Mr. Freeze. ❄️

This is the first episode of a new side series exclusively available on our Patreon! Ryan is joined by his baby brother to discuss whether or not the now iconic 1990’s Batman films directed by Joel Schumacher are in fact, dumps. Despite being a part of one of the biggest franchises of all time, these two films garner mixed reviews from die hard and casual Batman fans, but why?

This week on Semi-Pro Film Show, we're kicking off our “going postal” sweep with Joel Schumacher's Falling Down — the Michael Douglas movie that might be the best, most serious, and most unsettling entry in the whole lineup.We talk about why Falling Down still works, how the movie balances social commentary without feeling too heavy-handed, Michael Douglas as D-Fens, Robert Duvall's final-day-on-the-job cop storyline, the movie's mental health themes, defense contractor guilt, chaotic Los Angeles energy, and why this film feels like the blueprint for a whole genre of unhinged “one bad day” movies. Plus: Joel Schumacher, Batman & Robin, Postal, Crank, First Blood, Michael Douglas' hairline, and way too many “send this to someone…” jokes.Watch/listen as we break down Falling Down, the movie that asks: what happens when a man who is already unstable finally gets pushed too far?

A 2000-es években sokan az új Marlon Brandót látták a lázadó szerepekben feltűnt ír fenegyerekben, az idén 50 éves Colin Farrellben, aki olyan emlékezetes filmekben játszott le mindenkit, mint Joel Schumacher fülledt thrillerje, "A fülke", de hidrogénezett hajú Nagy Sándorként is láthattuk Oliver Stone 2004-es eposzában, amely a világot előrehajtó, kozmopolita toleranciazsarnokot ünnepelte. Legemlékezetesebb alakítását az "In Bruges" című 2008-as drámában nyújtotta lelkiismeretfurdalástól kínzott kutyaszemű bérgyilkosként, valamint nemrég "A sziget szellemei" című, szintén Martin McDonagh-darabban - a Batman-világból kiemelt "Pingvin"-ként pedig önálló sorozatot kapott. Az ígéretes kezdet után Colin Farrell végül nem nőtt igazi sztárrá, talán mert a szemében sose a sikeréhség, hanem a whiskeyszomj tükröződött. Összességében a karrierje olyan, mint a Tottenham: nincs miért szégyenkeznie, de olyan hú de nagy ász se lett. Colin Farrell legemlékezetesebb filmjeiről és alakításairól beszélgettünk és nem egyszer vitatkoztunk, mert például a "SWAT" című akciófilm nem aratott köztünk osztatlan sikert.A beszélgetés résztvevői:Balázsy IstvánBezsenyi TamásCsunderlik PéterDékány LászlóLaska PálA Régen minden jobb volt a Tilos Rádió történelmi-popkulturális műsora:https://www.facebook.com/regen.minden.jobb.volt

There's arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman.  No matter how many times he's been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City's greatest defender.  With so much Bat content out there, there's plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank!  This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman's history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters.Join hosts Daniel Cohen, Pop Break's former Film Editor, and Kris Ingersoll, co-host of the Media/Lit podcast, as they bring on several guests every month to share their passion for the one and only Dark Knight.  From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned.  Bottom-line: If you're a Batman fan, this is required listening.In our continuing yearlong theme for the Eras of Batman, we enter one of the most divisive eras of them all…THE SCHUMACHER ERAThe Batman franchise has seen many iterations, but few are as polarizing as the films helmed by director Joel Schumacher in the 1990s: Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. If you've ever wondered about the legacy of these films, or if you've found yourself laughing at their campy charm, you're not alone. In this episode, we'll delve into the Schumacher era of Batman, examining its initial reception, the nostalgic reassessment it has undergone, and why it remains a beloved topic among fans today. After that, they run down the top ten most iconic 90s costumes and gear from these two films!Joining Kris and Daniel to break it all down, we have both hosts of the Anniversary Brothers Podcast, Aaron and Josh Sarnecky!

Goodman, David Himmelstein, Jason Richman, and Michael Browning and directed by Joel Schumacher.Along the way, we talk a lot about Anthony Hopkins and Joel Schumacher, along with Die Hard, the Coen Brothers, Hamlet, the World Trade Center, action comedies, and a fun game about 2002 trailers!Theme music by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CFF Films⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Ross and friends.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies We've Covered on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies Recommended on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.

This week, we review Phone Booth (2002), Joel Schumacher's razor-tight psychological thriller about guilt, vanity, and public exposure. Colin Farrell stars as slick publicist Stu Shepard, with Kiefer Sutherland as the chilling unseen Caller and Forest Whitaker as the police captain caught in the chaos, in a story that explores morality under pressure. With one man trapped in a phone booth by a sniper who knows all his secrets, this film raises intriguing questions about truth, punishment, and whether people only change when they are forced to.Is this one call too close for comfort or a ringing endorsement of high-concept thriller madness?

This week on The Video Store Podcast, I am recommending four movies built around one of the simplest and most reliable science fiction ideas there is, shrinking people down. It is a strong trope because every one of these films understands that once a character gets small, nothing has to be exotic to feel dangerous. A bloodstream can look like deep space. A shopping cart can feel absurd and threatening at the same time. A backyard can turn into a full scale survival story. The fun of these movies is not just the effect itself, it is the way each one finds its own tone inside the same basic setup.Fantastic Voyage starts this set in an old-style studio style. Richard Fleischer directed it, Raquel Welch was still early in her career, and the movie ended up winning Academy Awards for art direction and special effects. Isaac Asimov wrote the novelization, which helped give the film an added layer of science fiction prestige even though the movie was not adapted from one of his earlier books. It is still one of those sixties films where the production design does a lot of the selling. You are watching people turn the inside of a human body into a full cinematic world, and they do it with real confidence.The Incredible Shrinking Woman takes the same basic concept and pushes it toward satire. Lily Tomlin is the main reason to see it, and she is surrounded by exactly the kind of bright, slightly unreal suburban world that makes the jokes work. Jane Wagner wrote it, Joel Schumacher directed it, and the movie has a cast that includes Charles Grodin and Ned Beatty. There is also a nice eighties detail in the score, since Suzanne Ciani handled the music, which gives the film one more thing separating it from the older version of this idea. It is not the most famous title in this group, but it feels very specific to its moment, especially in the way it folds consumer culture and household products into the premise.Innerspace may be the easiest recommendation here because it is so good at being funny, fast, and a little chaotic without losing track of the effects work. Joe Dante directed it, Dennis Quaid and Martin Short make a very good mismatch at the center, and the movie won the Academy Award for visual effects. This is one of those late eighties studio movies where the effects are both impressive and funny. It also has that Dante who has a habit of making a mainstream movie feel just a little off center. You can sense the touch of Industrial Light and Magic in the technical side, but it never turns into a dry demonstration reel.Honey, I Shrunk the Kids is a joy to watch. Joe Johnston made his live action directing debut with it, Rick Moranis is exactly right for the inventor at the center, and Disney turned a backyard into a full adventure landscape. It was a major hit, and for a while it stood as Disney's highest grossing live action film. Part of what makes it hold up is that so much of it was built around practical effects, oversized sets, models, puppetry, and carefully staged perspective tricks. It also had Tummy Trouble attached in theaters, so for a lot of people there was a Roger Rabbit bonus built into the experience. That is a pretty good rental memory to have.What I like about putting these four recommendations is that they show how flexible a shrinking movie can be. One plays it as a polished sixties science fiction trip. One turns it into satire. One uses it for special effects comedy with a little manic energy. One makes it into a family adventure that a lot of people probably first met on cable or VHS. Same basic hook, very different results. That is usually a good sign you have a real movie trope and not just a gimmick.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

McDonald's killed Batman. Then Warner Brothers buried him in neon. After Batman Returns traumatized parents and Christian groups, McDonald's panicked and pulled their Happy Meal deal. Warner Brothers, terrified of losing fast food merchandising money, forced a course correction that gave us Batman Forever—a neon-soaked, toyetic mess that abandoned Tim Burton's gothic vision for Joel Schumacher's campy, pun-filled nightmare. In this 10th anniversary episode of the Cinema Psychos Show, hosts Cottington and John Wooliscroft do a full Batman Forever fix and Batman Forever review—ranting about everything from the nipple suit to Jim Carrey's Riddler (Ace Ventura in green spandex) and Tommy Lee Jones sleepwalking as Two-Face. But they don't just roast it. They pitch alternate Batman 3 sequels: one that continues the Burton-verse with Catwoman and Billy Dee Williams as Harvey Dent, and one that keeps Robin but replaces the camp with Scarecrow as the real psychological threat. They also debate the legendary Schumacher cut, expose the Batman Returns McDonald's controversy, and explain why Batman Forever—not Batman & Robin—started the franchise's death spiral. If you're a Batman fan, a 90s kid drowning in nostalgia, or just love cult film analysis with a comedic, rant-heavy edge, this episode is your Batman Forever alternate version.

We've got a lot to celebrate this week, Spookies! Not only is it our very own Monica's birthday, it's also a Fifth Tuesday and the sneaky unofficial start to a new themed month — so of course we had to cover The Phantom of the Opera (2004). A luxe movie musical that captures the theatrical flair of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Broadway show and pairs it with the camp sensibilities of director Joel Schumacher, this flick practically jumps out of the screen when that first booming note hits. On a new Spooky Tuesday, we challenge you not to sing along as we talk all things score and book lore.

This week we're joined by the legendary drag queen Peaches Christ to talk about Joel Schumacher's landmark 1987 vampire movie, The Lost Boys, starring Jason Patric, Corey Haim, and Kiefer Sutherland. The Lost Boys marked a radical new direction for vampires that took Tony Scott's sexy goth approach in The Hunger and injected with the MTV sensibilities of late-80s teen culture. Paired with incredible night time photography and killer soundtrack, it is as close to perfect as a horror movie can get. Brothers Michael and Sam Emerson are moved to the seaside town of Santa Carla, California with their mother. It's your average boardwalk town with one mean exception: people go missing here at a much higher rate than most other places in the country. When Michael is brought into a group of wild weirdos that live by night it falls to Sam and the weirdo Frog Brothers to deal with Santa Carla's real problem: vampires.

CW: This episode contains discussion of sexual assault and violence, including abuse of minors, in relation to recent revelations in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Listener discretion advised.   Some Big News Weeks led us to a slightly unwieldy conversation about several topics alongside Joel Schumacher's 1999 thriller 8mm. Written by Se7en scribe Andrew Keving Walker and boasting a rich ensemble cast including Nicolas Cage, Joaquin Phoenix, Catherine Keener, James Gandolfini, and Peter Stormare, the film explores elite depravity, snuff films, and the dark core of the American dream where desperate people's lives become a commodity. We first begin with some thoughts on recent events at the Berlin Film Festival and offer our definitive answer to the question on everyone's lips, "Is cinema political?" Then, we venture into Schumacher's film, a not-very-good grisly crime thriller with some resonant considerations about the brutalization of young women within the machinery of capital. Finally, we share some personal thoughts on the most recent releases from the Epstein Files, what they tell us about the nature of power in the world, and offer up an alternative movie title for those thinking more deeply about the case's reverberations. Get access to all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish.

This week, we review Batman & Robin (1997), Joel Schumacher's neon-drenched, camp-infused take on the superhero genre. George Clooney dons the cowl as Batman, with Chris O'Donnell returning as Robin, joined by Alicia Silverstone's Batgirl. Together, they face off against a pun-happy Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and the seductive Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) in a Gotham that looks more like a laser tag arena than a city in peril. With its over-the-top costumes, toyetic set pieces, and infamous one-liners, this film raises intriguing questions about how far a franchise can stray before it freezes over.Is it a cold-hearted flop or a misunderstood cult classic?

[School of Movies 2025] This is a commissioned episode for our hardworking Pez-loving Discord moderator Mike Hasko. It's a relic from 1993, a period just after the Cold War and not too long before the War on Terror, and the focus is on a middle-aged, white, American, divorced, straight, cis, male office-worker who one boiling hot Los Angeles morning decides that he has had enough. The man known throughout most of the movie by his personalised license plate as D-FENS (played with vigour by Michael Douglas in this memorable and divisive Joel Schumacher joint) steps out of the car he leaves stuck in traffic, walks across a city that is not designed for pedestrian travel, and clashes with everyone who gets in his way. The creative team are really trying to have their cake and eat it by making the protagonist also the antagonist and how much they succeed or fail is very much down to the perception of the viewer. Pull up a breakfast 'Whomelette' and an ice-cold, aggressively-priced can of Coca Cola and we shall guide you through this eventful day.

Tonight's triple feature charts the modern musical's evolution from stage grandeur to cinematic intimacy. Les Misérables (2012), long trapped in development, found redemption under Tom Hooper's live-sung realism, winning three Oscars and redefining the genre's emotional rawness. The Phantom of the Opera (2004), Andrew Lloyd Webber's own adaptation directed by Joel Schumacher, preserved the opulent theatricality of its 1986 hit, trading subtlety for spectacle and box office success. Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd (2007) stripped Sondheim's operatic dread to its bones—industrial London rendered in blood and ash, with Johnny Depp's haunted performance earning two Oscars. Together they form a triptych of obsession and redemption—three wounded men seeking salvation through music, their worlds collapsing between faith, art, and violence. From the barricades to the opera house to Fleet Street, these films trace the death of theatrical innocence and the last roar of the sung confession.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

Actress and musician Jill Schoelen (POPCORN, THE STEPFATHER, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA 1989) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to share her career journey. From a 7 year old girl with alopecia who loved to sing for whoever would listen… to landing her first agent at age 10… to auditioning for the role of “Emmeline” in THE BLUE LAGOON as a teenager seven times only to not get the role… to her audition for “Sarah” in LABYRINTH alongside Jennifer Connelly and Ally Sheedy (Jill didn't get that role either)… to landing the role of “Claudette” in Joel Schumacher's D.C. CAB (1983) and then going on to star in a string of genre films like THE STEPFATHER, CURSE II, POPCORN, and WHEN A STRANGER CALLS BACK all while suffering from agoraphobia and severe anxiety… to the surprising information Fred Walton shared with her about her audition for WHEN A STRANGER CALLS BACK after the film had finished shooting… to her upcoming films RALPH'S PERFEKT CHRISTMAS and A DYING ART… and what to expect in her upcoming book of memoirs and on her upcoming album, Jill explains why you can't attach your happiness to an outcome that you can't personally control and why it's so important to just keep showing up.

This week, Andrea and Jodie sink their teeth into Joel Schumacher's 1987 teen vampire classic, The Lost Boys.

Today we sit down with the incredible journeyman actor Mark Pellegrino, who after four decades in the business continues to embody what it means to be a true working actor. Mark shares unforgettable audition stories, including his famously bold move of performing a seven-page monologue that earned him one of the greatest compliments of his career and led to booking A Murder of Crows. He also recounts working with David Lynch, Joel Schumacher, and Philip Seymour Hoffman, while offering a candid look at his meticulous preparation process—whether it's reading a script 200 times, rewriting audition sides, or diving into deep research. Beyond craft, he reflects on navigating a post-strike industry and his latest projects, including playing Cousin Eddie in the upcoming Murdoch: Death in the Family series. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Mark Pellegrino right here.

It's Die Hard in a phone booth!This week on DIE HARD ON A BLANK we're in a glass case of emotion with special guests Katie Walsh and Blake Howard as we discuss the 2002 high-concept thriller PHONE BOOTH, starring Colin Farrell and Forest Whitaker!Slick, sleazy, unscrupulous celebrity publicist Stu Shepard (Colin Farrell) lies for a living, hustling on behalf of his clients while strutting the streets of New York, and constantly making and taking phone calls with the help of a young intern named Adam (Keith Nobbs). However, while visiting one of the city's few remaining phone booths to secretly call a young actress he is trying to sleep with behind his wife's back, Stu suddenly finds himself in the middle of a terrifying situation…when an unidentified “Caller” (Kiefer Sutherland) informs Stu that he will kill him with a sniper rifle unless he remains in the phone booth and follows all his demands… As the two hosts of the MIAMI NICE podcast, our friends Blake and Katie are no stronger to the joys of Colin Farrell…nor of director Joel Schumacher, whose life, career and filmmaking style are all discussed at length. We also get into the film's long and tortured development history, other directors who were considered to helm Larry Cohen's long-gestating screenplay (including Michael Bay), and of course, the surprisingly high amount of “Die Hard DNA” crammed into that confined space. We hand out some awards in the “Die Hard Oscars” and wrap things up with the “Double Jeopardy Quiz”…where the scores can really change. Schumacher stans rise up!TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUqTCsjCsA8At the time of release, PHONE BOOTH is available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV/iTunes, YouTube, Fandango and all the usual platforms!Click here to subscribe to our Patreon feed 48 HOURS OF BUDDY MOVIES!www.patreon.com/48hoursofbuddymovies Hosted on Acast.

From David's iconic vampire coven dripping in leather and attitude to The Frog Brothers, Michael's earring, the Jim Morrison inspiration, and Schumacher's unmistakable designer flair—this episode celebrates the wild, rebellious style that made The Lost Boys immortal.

What happens when you mix Keanu Reeves, a scenery-chewing Al Pacino, and a Faustian bargain?Andrew Neiderman's novel was originally going to be adapted in the early 90s, directed by Joel Schumacher and starring Brad Pitt, but casting Satan proved difficult and so the project was halted.Speak of the devil, the O.J. Simpson trial gave new life to this story, and everyone became interested in courtroom drama and corrupt lawyers. The movie was resurrected, with Keanu Reeves choosing it over Speed 2, and the production desperate to entice Al Pacino to play the devil. Maybe they made a deal with the devil? In a bizarre twist worthy of the film itself, a copyright violation lawsuit forced the studio to digitally amend key scenes, proving that even fictional devils face real-world consequences.Inspired by John Milton's Paradise Lost, Dante's Inferno, and the Faust legend woven into late 90s Manhattan, The Devil's Advocate remains a fascinating time capsule of '90s excess while asking timeless questions about the price of success and the susceptibility of human ambition and greed.

“Both [Cage] and George C. Scott [in Hardcore] share the same forehead sweat…” - Andrew  On this week's very special episode, we're celebrating EPISODE 800 with a very sleaze-tastic conversation on Joel Schumacher's 8MM! How funny is it the screenwriter got upset that the content was toned down from his more hardcore vision? Was Cage's Tom Welles in over his head with this case or was he just the man for the job? How funny is that scene with Gandolfini trying to skip town carrying several boxes of pornography? How great is Joaquin in this performance as Max California? And how terrifying is that final showdown at Casa de Machine? PLUS: “Marc Maron” asks Machine who his guys are! 8MM stars Nicolas Cage, Joaquin Phoenix, James Gandolfini, Peter Stormare, Anthony Heald, Catherine Keener, Myra Carter, Amy Morton, and Chris Bauer as Machine; directed by Joel Schumacher.
