Podcast appearances and mentions of Laurence Fishburne

Our “Summer of Sam” continues as The Nomads of Fantasy board the haunted starship for Paul W.S. Anderson's Event Horizon, starring Sam Neill and Laurence Fishburne. We gush over the film's incredible production design, moody atmosphere, and a first half that lets the crew (and the dread) breathe. But we also talk about how the finale sputters into a dull ending—and how so much promising material was clearly cut, leaving a choppier, less satisfying experience than it could've been. Join us as we celebrate what works, lament what's missing, and imagine the better version that might have been.Stick around for a round of 20 Questions after the conversation!Safe travels, nomads.

Jake discusses the 2025 Spy Thriller, The Amateur, starring Rami Malek, Laurence Fishburne, Rachel Brosnahan and Michael Stuhlbarg.

Tauche mit uns ein in einen vielseitigen Filmtalk, in dem wir die Kultkomödie Happy Gilmore (1996) sowie das lang ersehnte Happy Gilmore 2 ausführlich besprechen. Wir beleuchten Adams Sandlers Rückkehr als unkonventioneller Golfheld, zahlreiche Cameos (u.a. Bad Bunny, Travis Kelce) und nostalgische Rückblenden mit emotionalem Tribut an Carl Weathers.Weiter geht es mit dem bewegenden Drama The Outrun (2024), das auf Amy Liptrots Memoiren basiert. Wir analysieren Saoirse Ronans energiegeladene Performance als Rona, ihre Rückkehr auf die abgeschiedenen Orkney-Inseln und den Kampf gegen Alkoholismus – eingebettet in beeindruckende Naturbilder und ausgezeichnete Filmmusik von John Gürtler & Jan Miserre.Im nächsten Segment reden wir über The Marvels (Marvel Cinematic Universe, Released 2023). Trotz durchwachsener Kritiken präsentiert der Film ein Duell der Superkräfte zwischen Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel und Monica Rambeau. Wir diskutieren die Chemie im Trio, die filmischen Höchstleistungen (?) – sowie Kritikpunkte wie Überfrachtung und schwache Bösewichtzeichnung.Last but not least: The Amateur (2025), der Rami Malek als introvertierten CIA-Analysten Charles Heller zeigt, der nach dem Tod seiner Frau zur eigenmächtigen Spurensuche rund um den Globus aufbricht. Wir sprechen über das düstere Thriller-Feeling, klassische Agentenstruktur, die Dynamik mit Laurence Fishburne und die Debatte um Revanche vs. moralischer Ambivalenz – mit Blick auf mögliche Fortsetzungen.Nächste Woche fällt leider aus - wir hören uns am 15. August wieder!Hausaufgabe bis dahin: "KPOP Demon Hunters" (Netflix) #NapalmAmMorgen

Nathan is still recovering from Jason's gunshots so Jerika fills in this week to help discuss Francis Ford Coppola's film Megalopolis after nearly 50 years in the making. Did Francis really cast the Cancelled Actor All-Stars? Is there any baseline of logic to understand ANY of this movie? Does Aubrey Plaza nearly save this entire thing? Should this have been a musical? And just what in the hell did Jon Voight just say?! Next week: Nathan returns as the guys go nuclear.

The summer of the list is over friends! We're back to our regularly scheduled nonsense. And to get back into the groove, we're cooking up a new marathon: Once More with Feeling. The hook? Movies we have seen before, but via their remakes! And we go all the way back to episode one when we covered a John Carpenter classic. We are talking the 2005 remake of Assault on Precinct 13. Arthur finally gets to hop on the mic to talk about the siege story, but how does it hold up to the original? We talk violence, psychoanalysis, Laurence Fishburne, and much, much more. Tune in to hear our thoughts!

What happens when cops get so deep undercover that they risk losing themselves and becoming the very thing they're trying to destroy? Bill Duke directs Laurence Fishburne and Jeff Goldblum, Michael Mann directs Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell, and both of these movies will take you to the limit.The Deep Question: You find an email from the head of a major movie studio in your spam and quickly realize it's legit.

Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey dive into Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007), the action-packed sequel to Marvel's original Fantastic Four movie, directed by Tim Story. The film reunites the super-powered team as they face their most cosmic threat yet. Ioan Gruffudd (Horatio Hornblower, San Andreas) returns as Reed Richards / Mr. Fantastic, Jessica Alba (Sin City, Into the Blue) as Sue Storm / Invisible Woman, Chris Evans (Captain America: The First Avenger, Knives Out) as Johnny Storm / Human Torch, and Michael Chiklis (The Shield, Coyote) as Ben Grimm / The Thing. As Reed and Sue prepare for their wedding, Earth's atmosphere is disrupted by the arrival of the mysterious Silver Surfer (voiced by Laurence Fishburne of The Matrix, John Wick), with Doug Jones (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy) providing the physical performance. The cosmic rider heralds the approach of Galactus, a planet-devouring force that threatens Earth's survival.

This week Bryan and Dave take you back to the New York City of 1990 with a look at what might be Abel Ferrara's most focused movie, King of New York. With a dynamite cast of killers, including Christopher Walken at his best, Laurence Fishburne carrying practically the entire movie on his shoulders, David Caruso, Wesley Snipes, and Giancarlo Esposito, King of New York presents a morally gray crime movie where everyone, even the cops, are just the worst. Crime is the blood that keeps the city alive in this movie and an unreliable narrator is going to do his best to convince you that his crusade to run the criminal underground and thereby the entire city is just, good, and right. Stylish, slick, and kinetic, King of New York is like a Pixies song with loud, outrageous, and violent scenes of criminal carnage punctuated by quiet meditations on morality. It's bleak, nihilistic, and the brothers can't help but notice that this very-much American cops and robbers movie feels much, much more like the Italian Polizziotteschi reflections which makes the film's subtle social and political undertones feel that much more pronounced.Join the Bring Me The Axe Discord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/snkxuxzJ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support Bring Me The Axe! on Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://patreon.com/bringmetheaxepod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Bring Me The Axe merch here:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bonfire.com/store/bring-me-the-axe-podcast/⁠⁠

"Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see"For today's episode, we are conducting a conversational watch-along of Paul W.S.

Tune in as Pride Month rolls onward for its second week on 2CC! Anna (@banananna024/@formergleek) is jumping back on the show for a deep dive into The Matrix, the 1999 sci-fi action movie about a computer hacker who's bestowed with a quest to free humankind from the simulated reality in which they've all been imprisoned. The utterly trans layers of this iconic film, Tom Cruise and his representation of the predatory cult Scientology, multiple instances of Anna quoting the John Wick franchise, and the comparison that Arthur draws between Switch from The Matrix and Val from gen:LOCK pop out as just a few of the talking points in this episode.Written and directed by Lana and Lilly Wachowski, The Matrix stars Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Hugo Weaving, Gloria Foster, Joe Pantoliano, Marcus Chong, Julian Arahanga, Matt Doran, Belinda McClory, Anthony Ray Parker, Paul Goddard, Robert Taylor, Marc Aden Gray, Ada Nicodemou, and Rowan Witt.Spoilers start at 59:30The Matrix Is Intrinsically TransThe Marcus Chong Story#MatrixGate what really happened to Tank the Operator in the original MatrixCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastrHere's how you can learn more about Palestine and IsraelHere's how you can keep up-to-date on this genocideHere's how you can send eSIM cards to Palestinians in order to help them stay connected onlineGood Word:• Anna: Andor• Arthur: Someone Knows by Vi KeelandReach out at email2centscritic@yahoo.com if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or any of your preferred podcasting platforms!Follow Arthur on Twitter, Goodpods, StoryGraph, Letterboxd, and TikTok: @arthur_ant18Follow Arthur on Bluesky: @arthur-ant18Follow the podcast on Twitter: @two_centscriticFollow the podcast on Instagram: @twocentscriticpodFollow Arthur on GoodreadsCheck out 2 Cents Critic Linktree

Tune in as 2 Cents Critic kicks off Pride Month! Yes, this month has circled back around for the year 2025, so the program will be focusing on queer art. For this first episode of June, Robyn Zabukovec (@TheFinalGirly) strides on back to her guest chair for a breakdown of Hannibal, the horror-thriller show that premiered on NBC in 2013 and spent three seasons diving into the grisly and psychological layers of the bond that grows between an FBI criminal profiler with a painfully perceptive knack for empathy and a cunning forensic psychiatrist who harbors murderous and cannibalistic secrets. Comparing this show to the underrated horror movie Sound of Violence (which Arthur and Robyn previously covered last Pride Month on 2CC), the fake TV series Clarice, and Robyn's hatred of the movies Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon stand out as a few of the subjects on this episode.Developed by Bryan Fuller, Hannibal stars Mads Mikkelsen, Hugh Dancy, Laurence Fishburne, Caroline Dhavernas, Hettienne Park, Scott Thompson, Aaron Abrams, Gillian Anderson, Raúl Esparza, Kacey Rohl, Lara Jean Chorostecki, Suzy Eddie Izzard, Gina Torres, Anna Chlumsky, Katharine Isabelle, Michael Pitt, Joe Anderson, Vladimir Jon Cubrt, Cynthia Nixon, Richard Armitage, Rutina Wesley, Tao Okamoto, Glenn Fleshler, and Fortunato Cerlino.Spoilers start at 40:45Note: Sorry for not posting an episode last week!

Abrams On this week's episode, we welcome Ben Worcester onto the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza to chat about the super-fun action sequel, Mission: Impossible III! How great is this engagement party scene with Ethan working the room? Has there been a better M:I villain than the late, great Philip Seymour Hoffman's portrayal of Owen Davian? Is this the M:I flick with the most Ving? And how lucky is Ethan to have Aaron Paul for a brother-in-law? PLUS: Does Ethan Hunt have the same bartending skills as Brian Flanagan?

Director Francis Ford Coppola is widely regarded as one of the greatest directors of the twentieth century, the visionary force behind The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, and dozens of other films. For decades, Coppola had sought to make a film drawing parallels between the fall of the Roman Republic and the future of the United States by retelling the Catilinarian conspiracy in modern New York, but was unable to secure studio funding. After three decades of fits and starts, Coppola ultimately spent $120 million of his own money to make the film, drawn largely from the fortune he made in the winemaking business. Released in fall of 2024, the ensemble cast features Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, Nathalie Emmanuel, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight, and Laurence Fishburne. After a troubled production and a rocky reception at Cannes, where the film premiered, Coppola was forced to spend additional money to market the film, but the trailer was removed for using fabricated pull quotes. Ultimately, the film grossed only $14.3 million at the box office - barely 10% of what it cost to make. But is this film - the ultimate vanity project - worth the wait or does it collapse under the weight of its own ambitions? All roads lead to Megalopolis!

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review, where this week we take the red pill and tumble down the rabbit hole into the genre-defining cyberpunk classic that is The Matrix (1999). Prepare for slow-mo shootouts, existential dread, and the most influential sunglasses in cinema history.Written and directed by the Wachowskis, The Matrix dropped like a black-leather-clad bomb on the sci-fi landscape in 1999 and changed the game forever. Keanu Reeves stars as Neo, a disillusioned computer hacker who learns that his reality is a simulated construct designed by sentient machines to subjugate humanity. Waking up to the "real world" — a dystopian nightmare where humans are harvested for energy — Neo is recruited by the mysterious Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) and the fiercely cool Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) to help fight back.The plot may be straight out of a philosophy seminar, but it's delivered with style, intensity, and more bullet-time than you can dodge.It turns out the dads still know kung fu. Revisiting The Matrix was a treat — we all had memories of our minds being blown by it the first time around, and it's still astonishing how well it holds up. While the sequels sparked debate, this original entry is tight, clever, and endlessly entertaining. A particular highlight was rediscovering how well the film balances its heady concepts with genuine emotion and momentum.We couldn't help but chuckle at the turn-of-the-millennium cool factor, but there's no denying that The Matrix still feels cool — and crucially, smart. It walks the line between popcorn blockbuster and brainy thriller with serious finesse.The Matrix remains one of the most influential films of the last 30 years. It changed action cinema, reshaped science fiction, and made philosophy sexy — all while kicking ass in slow motion. Whether you're here for the kung fu, the coding metaphors, or just to watch Agent Smith get punched in the face, there's always a reason to plug back in.

This week it's the 400th episode! The main movie feature is Until Dawn, based off the PlayStation  survival/horror video game. There is also a second movie feature, The Amateur, starring Rami Malek and Laurence Fishburne. Star Wars: Andor is back for it's second season, and you can hear about the first two episodes. There's also that brutal second episode of The Last Of Us Season 2. If that wasn't enough, there's a bizarre episode of Doctor Who plus comics and more. 00:00:00 - 00:28:35 Intro & News 00:28:35 - 00:59:42 Comics 00:59:42 - 01:32:44 Doctor Who E202 01:32:44 - 02:00:22 The Last of Us E202 02:00:22 - 02:40:10 Star Wars: Andor E201-202 02:40:10 - 02:50:18 The Amateur 02:50:18 - 03:11:51 Until Dawn 03:11:51 - 03:16:51 Outro You can support the show at Patreon.com/GManFromHeck (and get access to the weekly bonus podcast) or at ko-fi.com/GManFromHeck.

This week on the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast, we dive into a bloody fairy tale twist, some high-stakes espionage, and a terrifying date night from hell—plus a couple of drum beats and a vampire classic for good measure. The Death of Snow White Directed by Jason Brooks – Starring Sanae Loutsis This isn't the Disney version. Snow White is on the run from her wicked stepmother and finds herself aligned with a group of seven dwarves… who are less "Hi-Ho" and more "psycho." Expect gore, survival horror, and a dark twist on a childhood favorite. Warfare Directed by Alex Garland & Ray Mendoza – Starring Will Poulter, Charles Melton, Joseph Quinn A gritty war drama where a Navy SEAL surveillance mission in Iraq goes horribly wrong. Packed with tension, chaos, and Garland's signature existential dread. Count Me In Directed by Mark Lo – Featuring Stewart Copeland, Claire Ferguson, Chad Smith, Clem Burke A celebration of rock's heartbeat—this documentary features some of music's most iconic drummers sharing what it means to keep time and create rhythm. Warning: you might be inspired to buy a drum kit afterward. The Amateur Directed by James Hawes – Starring Rami Malek, Laurence Fishburne, Rachel Brosnahan After losing his wife in a terrorist attack, a CIA codebreaker goes rogue. Fueled by grief and intelligence, he sets out on a globe-spanning mission of revenge when the agency fails him. Drop Directed by Christopher Landon – Starring Meghann Fahy, Brandon Sklenar What starts as a romantic evening for a widowed mom quickly devolves into psychological torment when a mysterious figure threatens her family unless she commits murder. Tense, intimate, and full of suspense. Sinners Directed by Ryan Coogler – Starring Michael B. Jordan, Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Caton, Delroy Lindo Twin brothers return home hoping for peace, only to find that evil doesn't forget. A southern Gothic drama that mixes family trauma with spiritual reckoning and small-town menace. Classic Review: Fright Night (1985) Directed by Tom Holland – Starring William Ragsdale, Chris Sarandon, Roddy McDowall Teenage horror nerd Charley Brewster is convinced his new neighbor is a vampire. No one believes him, so he turns to a B-movie TV host for help. Campy, creepy, and a total ‘80s gem. Follow Us Online:

A pair of retro reviews, as LexG does a deep dive on John Carpenter's 1976 classic Assault on Precinct 13... and the 2005 remake with Ethan Hawke and Laurence Fishburne, with plenty of Carpenter discussion along the way.

Will Ashton returns with another Instant Take, this time tackling The Amateur, a new action-thriller starring Rami Malek (Mr. Robot, Bohemian Rhapsody) as a surveillance tech expert turned reluctant vigilante. With a vibe that borrows from Death Wish and Jason Bourne, the film delivers slick set pieces, familiar genre beats, and a central performance that’s more restrained than revolutionary. Will explores how The Amateur flirts with deeper character nuance, particularly in its depiction of Malek’s potentially autistic-coded lead. Though the film never explicitly confirms it, the character’s traits raise questions about representation in action movies and whether the film embraces or falls back on tired tropes. Alongside Malek, the film features a solid supporting cast: Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Laurence Fishburne, John Bernthal, Holt McCallany (Mindhunter), and Julianne Nicholson. Some standout moments include inventive “trap-like” set pieces and moody, high-rise shootouts that pop in premium formats. But Will questions if that’s enough to elevate an otherwise middle-of-the-road revenge thriller.

Is it only April? We hope everyone has been doing well and hanging in there. Hopefully today's episode will help up lift some spirits because we've got a fun one with 1995's Die Hard With a Vengeance. Not only was Jordan surprised to learn this is actually the third film in the series, but also that it could have also co-starred Laurence Fishburne instead of Sam Jackson.  It also lets us ask a lot of important questions like who was the first Black person to save the world on film and what if Simon Gruber asked questions only about Black history?  Our book club is starting up soon! Coming up on Sunday April 27th we'll be discussing Eve Ewing's Original Sin which explores the intentional failures of America's education system when it comes to Black and Indigenous children specifically. We'll be talk about it on our IG (@whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod) and on our discord so be sure to join us on both.  We'll be back in two weeks with Academy award winner Adrian Brody in the very confusing Chinese blockbuster, Dragon Gate.  

This week, the boys stay positive as they take a look at Ridley Scott's first proper film, “The Duelists,” from 1977!

John and Dave also caught “The Amateur” (2025) in the cinema and offer a mini-review before John discusses some upsetting WGA hiring statistics. Grab a drink and give us a listen!

Based on the 1981 novel of the same name by Robert Littell, which was previously adapted into a Canadian film that same year, the film tells the story of a CIA decoder who goes rogue on a global mission for justice after his wife is killed in a London terrorist attack when his superiors refuse to act, using nothing but his intellect. What did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the story, performances, thrills, potential for a sequel, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast is jam-packed etc. etc. Bumper-sized, and so on and so forth. But it's true, perhaps this week more than ever as Chris Hewitt sits down for chats with two pairs — first, there's Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche, who reunite almost 30 years after The English Patient for this week's Odyssey-sampling drama, The Return. [24:05 - 38:32 approx] Then, there's Rami Malek and Laurence Fishburne, stars of the new spy thriller The Amateur, who reflect upon where they met, their working relationship, and the influence of Event Horizon upon modern cinema. [1:03:32 - 1:17:24 approx] Finally, Ben Travis has a lovely chat with Christopher Landon, the always affable director of this week's thriller, Drop. [1:38:53 - 1:53:53 approx] Either side of those, Chris welcomes Ben and James Dyer into the podbooth, as well as our returning geek queen, Helen O'Hara, back after that small business of getting married. They talk about that, discuss the great movie weddings they'd like to attend, run their eye over the week's movie news (including a whole bunch of trailers), and review The Amateur, The Return, Holy Cow, Drop, and One To One: John & Yoko. Also, Chris unleashes a new and almost instantly unwanted impression, and the question is asked: who is the funniest person Helen knows? The answer may shock you. Enjoy.
