In which the Mister and Miss Angie join me in reviewing CONCLAVE (2024), from a novel by Robert Harris, the film has a screenplay by Peter Straughan (winner of the 2025 Best Adapted Screenplay Academy Award) and is directed by Edward Berger.  After the death of the Pope, Thomas Lawrence (a riveting performance by the always luminescent Ralph Fiennes), the Dean of Cardinals, must convene a conclave to choose the new leader of the Catholic Church. Troubled by his own faltering faith, Thomas must make some hard choices to uphold his responsibilities while also dealing with the ambitions of his fellow Cardinals.  The powerhouse cast includes Isabella Rossellini, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, Lucian Msamati, Jacek Koman, Carlos Diehz, Thomas Loibl, Brian F O'Byrne and Sergio Castellitto.  The film clocks in at 2 h, is rated PG and is currently streaming on Prime Video but also to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.This episode of the pod is dedicated to the always lovely and fabulous Miss Angie - love you Sister!#Conclave #RobertHarris #PeterStraughan #EdwardBerger #RalphFiennes #Lawrence #IsabellaRossellini #SisterAgnes #StanleyTucci #Bellini #JohnLithgow #Tremblay #LucianMsamati #Adeyemi #JacekKoman #Wozniak #CarlosDiehz #Benitez #ThomasLoibl #Mandorff #BrianFOByrne #OMalley #SergioCastellitto #Tedesco #Thriller #Drama #ConspiracyThriller  ⁠@PrimeVideo  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Welkom bij aflevering 207 van Nerd Culture waarin we met een gehavende opstelling van start gaan op deze May the Fourth. We droppen een shitload aan feitjes, fabeltjes en ongezouten meninkjes omtrent het derde deel uit de STAR WARS prequel trilogie: Revenge of the SithRevenge of the Sith 20th anniversary Deze week trappen we af met een rewatch van Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, waarin we het twintigjarige jubileum van Revenge of the Sith vieren. Want vorige week hebben we dit niet genoeg aandacht geven, toch ;) Als het bevalt duiken we vanaf nu elke week in een film uit de originele Skywalker-saga! Deze week is het tijd voor het hoogtepunt van de prequel-trilogie.Zoals altijd zat Huey klaar met zijn notitieboekje vol vragen en feitjes. Komen we deze week eindelijk te weten of Obi-Wan inderdaad in het voordeel was met the high ground? Waarom praat Yoda eigenlijk zo raar? En is het verantwoord om de aanval op de Jedi Temple op 4 mei te bespreken?In Revenge of the Sith zien we hoe Anakin Skywalker definitief kiest voor de duistere kant, met alle desastreuze gevolgen van dien. Blauwe lichtzwaarden vliegen je om de oren, Clones keren zich tegen de Jedi en de Galactische Republiek valt in sneltreinvaart uiteen.Of je de film nu al honderd keer hebt gezien of voor het eerst echt goed bekijkt, wij bespreken de film tot in de diepste uithoeken van Mustafar. Van cinematografische keuzes tot onbedoelde komische momenten: alles komt voorbij.Opnames Avengers: Doomsday van startHet was deze week het grootste nerdnieuws: Avengers: Doomsday is officieel in productie gegaan. De film moet het eerste grote Avengers-spektakel worden sinds de Multiversele Saga van star is gegaan, maar… soepel loopt het allemaal niet. Volgens de doorgaans goed geïnformeerde scooper MyTimeToShineHello is er op dit moment nog steeds geen definitief scenario. Elke draaidag zou er opnieuw aan gesleuteld worden, alsof zelfs Marvel nog geen idee heeft waar dit verhaal precies heen moet. Klinkt geruststellend!Alsof dat nog niet genoeg onzekerheid is, voegde John Rocha eraan toe dat slechts de helft van de beoogde cast daadwerkelijk is vastgelegd. Ze zijn dus al begonnen met filmen, zonder dat alle acteurs weten of ze überhaupt meedoen. Blijkbaar is dat gewoon hoe blockbusters tegenwoordig gemaakt worden: een combinatie van hoop, chaos en star power met een snufje paniek in de ogen van de producer.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #20700:01:53 Wat gaan we vandaag doen?00:03:56 Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith01:00:23 Captain America Brave New World01:12:43 Havoc01:15:47 John Lithgow krijgt bakken met kritiek om zijn rol als Perkamentus.01:19:26 Michelle Pfeiffer over de dood van de Hollywood cultuur in Los Angeles.01:21:38 Spielberg tipt de beste film allertijden. 01:23:10 Echte Superman trailer komt nog.01:24:52 Avengers Doomsday is begonnen met schieten.

GET YOUR MULTIVERSE NEWS MERCH HERE:https://multiverse-news-shop.fourthwall.com/Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesMarvel Studios is returning to its roots and the source of its inspiration – the comics! For the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's history, the studio and the comic publishing arm of the company are collaborating to create a tie-in comic for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. While there have been official tie-in comics to the films before, it was a case of the comics working within the confines of what was already planned and established for the films, not a true collaboration from the ground up. To that end, Marvel has pulled out all the stops by bringing talent the likes of writer Matt Fraction, who was allowed to visit the films set along with other creators working on the comic. The comic, a one-shot that releases July 2, ahead of the film's July 25 release, is said to be designed to act as media that exists within the film's continuity.20th Century Studios released the teaser trailer for Predator: Badlands, the highly anticipated sequel to Dan Trachtenberg's Prey. The trailer, while brief at just over a minute, is jampacked with footage that includes vistas, locales, creatures and technology never seen within the franchise, including two mysterious characters: one being what seems to a Predator protagonist and Elle Fanning in an enigmatic, humanoid role who begs more questions than answers.A couple weeks ago we discussed the casting of several key figures in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series, including John Lithgow as Hogwarts Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore. Now, while speaking the London Times last week, the actor revealed that he was not prepared for the resulting public outcries and backlash in response to his participation - given series creator J.K. Rowling's involvement; as Rowling's public transphobic stance and comments in recent years have been the subject of controversy. Elsewhere, David Tennant, who played Barty Crouch in the films, offered his appropriately timed insights on the author while receiving an allyship award at the British LGBT Awards, saying, “We shouldn't live in a world where that is worth remarking on — I don't wish ill of her, I just wish her to shut up.” The lines between the worlds of make believe and our real one are often blurry and the decision to separate art from a problematic artist is a complicated and personal one. The review embargo has lifted on Thunderbolts* and from 107 total reviews, the film currently has a certified fresh rating of 88% on Rotten Tomatoes.The upcoming prequel Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping has cast Joseph Zada as Haymitch Abernathy and Whitney Peak as his girlfriend, Lenore Dove Baird. Mckenna Grace will play District 12 tribute Maysilee Donner, Jesse Plemons will portray a young Plutarch Heavensbee, and the film is set for release on November 20, 2026.Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Jenna Ortega-led series Wednesday. The series will follow a split release schedule with part 1 dropping on August 6, and part 2 to follow on September 3.Sydney Sweeney is set to star in a film adaptation of hit video game “Split Fiction” with Jon M. Chu directing, Variety has learned. The script for the movie is being written by “Deadpool & Wolverine” screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.Emma Mackey has been cast as the White Witch in Narnia, Greta Gerwig's adaptation of C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia fantasy novels.Over the weekend, “Minecraft” collected $37.8 million overseas and $60.5 million worldwide in its fourth weekend of release. Meanwhile, “Sinners” added $13.5 million internationally and $58.5 million globally in its second week. For the second consecutive weekend, Warner has nabbed the No. 1 and 2 spots on international, domestic and global box office charts.

Despite the backlash that Actor John Lithgow has received for taking part in the Harry Potter series on HBO following J.K Rowling's anti-trans comments, he will continue to be part of the show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pope Francis' death not only led to an outpouring of remembrances. It also unleashed a new wave of memes from the Oscar-nominated movie Conclave. It tells a very fun and very fictional story of the secretive process by which a pope is replaced. It's a twisty political thriller, it's a tense jury drama, and it's got some strong commentary on the state of the Catholic Church. Conclave stars Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, and Isabella Rossellini, and it's available to rent or stream at home.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopculture.To access bonus episodes and sponsor-free listening for Pop Culture Happy Hour, subscribe to Pop Culture Happy Hour+ at plus.npr.org/happy.

Although we often complain about the sentencing guidelines, this week, I find myself thankful that we still live in a country that has courts and due process, in the federal criminal courts.  At least for now.  So today, we celebrate the death of guideline departures, lament the death of due process in immigration, and worry for the future of this democracy. That's why we start off talking about the plight of Kilmar Garcia-Abrego, a person lawfully in this country who was abducted by brownshirt immigration thugs and stolen away in the night to a concentration camp in El Salvador.  No notice. No hearing. No due process.  No contact with a lawyer or loved ones.  No prospect for release – ever.  That's why we start off talking about the plight of Kilmar Garcia-Abrego, a person lawfulfully in this country who was abucted by brownshirt immigration thugs and stolen away in the night to a concentration camp in El Salvador.  No notice. No hearing. No due process.  No contact with a lawyer or loved ones.  No prospect for release – ever.  This is who we are now.  Pay attention.   IN THIS EPISODE: Kilmar Garcia Abrego: authoritarianism is here, and we are in a full constitutional crisis.  If they can do this to him, they can do it to ANYBODY… and they will. Lost Lore tequila! New changes to the Supervised Release guideline; A warning – if you are successful in arguing against supervised release, you could impact your client's ability to earn early release from prison; The goal of S/R, in no incertain terms, is REHABILITATION!  But courts are using it as punishment, and routinely imposing prison terms for said violations.  Therefore, the new guideline amendments make clear that this is not, by default, the appropriate result! The death of “upward departures” and simplification of the “three step process”; The difference between guideline “departures” and “adjustments”; The vindication of the need to telling our clients' life stories; Things in the “goddamn Sentencing Reform Act that were directed to the Commission 40 years ago to take into consideration when it promulgated the fucking guidelines, that it still has not done.”  (Mark's colorful language), the biggest one being the sad state of affairs at the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Talk of moving BOP to DHS and the future banishment to concentration camps of US Citizens.   LINKS:  "Reader-friendly" guidelines amendments from Sentencing Commission: https://www.ussc.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/amendment-process/reader-friendly-amendments/202504_prelim-rf.pdf   Timothy Synder's On Tyranny: 20 lessons from the 20th century:  Last episode we talked about the lesson of language (domestic terrorism).  Today we talk about not “obeying in advance” when an authoritarian begins to test the limits of his power.  If we let what is happening to Mr. Abrego Garcia and those like him, we are lost.  Here's a great video of John Lithgow reciting all 20 lessons.  Learn them.  Take action.  https://youtu.be/cXR5HLodsT8?si=KfukKSdAPEfytSLE   There's a new "open letter" circulating on Facebook and beyond, purportedly written by Liz Cheney.  She's not the author.  But the letter is right on.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesMarvel Studios kickoffs of the summer blockbuster season in just 2 weeks with the release of Thunderbolts* on May 2. With tickets now on sale, box office tracking and projections ahead of the film's release are forecasting a solid, if not somewhat soft, opening weekend; with most estimates landing between $63 to $77 million. While that is on the lower side for an MCU movie, optimists believe the general lower level of familiarity with the characters on the roster, combined with the positive test screenings, could give the film significant potential and room to grow in subsequent weeks via word of mouth. Elsewhere, Captain America actor Anthony Mackie offered some insights on Avengers: Doomsday while promoting Twisted Metal Season 2 for Peacock, saying, “It's going to give the audience that old Marvel feeling that they always had.”​The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced the introduction of a new Oscar category for Achievement in Stunt Design, set to debut at the 100th Academy Awards in 2028, honoring films released in 2027. This decision follows years of advocacy from industry professionals, including director and former stuntman David Leitch and stunt coordinator Chris O'Hara, who was notably credited as the first official "stunt designer" for his work on The Fall Guy. While the specific criteria and presentation details are yet to be finalized, this move is seen as a significant step toward recognizing the creative and technical artistry of stunt professionals in filmmaking. However, there is notable disappointment that earlier works, such as Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible series, will not be eligible for this new recognition.​HBO has officially announced the adult cast for its upcoming Harry Potter TV series, confirming several roles and actors we've discussed, along with new additions. John Lithgow will portray Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer is cast as Minerva McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu takes on Severus Snape, and Nick Frost will play Rubeus Hagrid. Additionally, Luke Thallon has been cast as Professor Quirinus Quirrell, and Paul Whitehouse will portray Argus Filch. Casting for the central trio—Harry, Ron, and Hermione—is still underway, with over 32,000 children auditioning for these iconic roles. In an interview with Deadline, Warner Bros' Mike De Luca and Pam Abby confirmed that the studio is moving forward with sequels to A Minecraft Movie and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. This weekend, A Minecraft Movie crossed a half a billion dollars at the global box office.A24 has released the first trailer for Ari Aster's Eddington, which stars Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, and Emma Stone. The film will premiere next month at the Cannes Film Festival and then will release in theaters on July 18th.Comedian Nate Bargatze will host the 77th annual Emmy awards which will be held on September 14th The Last of Us season 2 debuted to 5.3 million viewers, a 13% increase from the season 1 premiere.Insider Jeff Sneider is reporting that a remake of the 1988 horror cult classic Killer Klowns From Outer Space is in the works at MGM with Ryan Gosling attached to produce. This scoop is currently unconfirmed at this time.Jurassic Park star Sam Neill has joined the cast of the upcoming Godzilla x Kong monsterverse sequel which will be directed by Grant Sputore.Ahead of Star Wars Celebration this weekend, a new Darth Vader novel titled Master of Evil from author Adam Christopher has been announced which will release on November 11th.

It's Tax Day, and we're celebrating the fiscal cycle with a movie that gets physical. A film that puts the “internal” from “internal injuries” in the Internal Revenue Service. The flick that proves pocket protectors can be cool and no one will make fun of you for wearing them if you also carry a really big gun. Ben Affleck stars, the same year he donned the Bat-Mantle in Batman V Superman, alongside Jon Bernthal, Anna Kendrick, J.K. Simmons, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, John Lithgow, Jean Smart, and Jeffrey Tambor. In the film, Affleck plays an autistic CPA who is also a master assassin. Written by Ozark creator Bill Dubuque and directed by Gavin O'Connor, the film rightly drew criticism for “cripface” - casting a non-disabled actor to play a person with a disability - the film performed well at the box office and earned a sequel, which premiered last month at SXSW and goes wide later this month. But when the bill comes due, is The Accountant merely a paint-by-numbers affair, is it guilty of fraud, or does it add up to more than the sum of its parts?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Braga, King, and Ski talk about The Accountant. Ben Affleck is an autistic badass, John Lithgow is a bad guy, and Anna Kendrick likes math. It fits Affleck's bad acting perfectly and might be the best representation of a neurodivergent character in film. Is it any good? Listen!
