Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Marty gives Clif the movie Suitable Flesh to watch and Clif gives Marty the movie Green Book to watch. Clif and Marty pair up two movies that somehow work exceptionally well together. Here comes Green Book and Suitable Flesh. We start with Suitable Flesh. A wild Lovecraft-inspired body-swap horror throwback featuring Heather Graham and horror legend Barbara Crampton. Clif and Marty talk B-movie charm, gross-out effects and Stuart Gordon vibes. Overthinking this movie might ruin the fun!Next, it's Peter Farrelly's Oscar-winning road movie Green Book starring Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali, discussing the chemistry between the leads and the film's mix of comedy and drama. Green Book often feels like “The Odd Couple in a car.” They also cover listener mail, Jim Jarmusch appreciation and pizza-folding sitcom jokes. #TalkingPondo #FilmPodcast #GreenBook #SuitableFlesh #MovieReview #HorrorMovies #ClassicCinema #BarbaraCrampton Support the showFind our films here:The Love Song of William H ShawRevenge of ZoeWriting Fren-ZeeMaking Pondo on FacebookX (formerly Twitter):@MakingPondoInstagramMaking Pondo on Letterboxd:Season OneSeason TwoSeason ThreeSeason FourTheme Song "The Rain" by Russ PacePhotos by Geoffrey Notkin

Kristian discusses the latest Marvel rumors, the future of the vampire hunter in the MCU, and where Blade could appear next.

Sony didn't wait long to release the Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer we've all been craving and oh, how it delivered! Unsurprisingly, the trailer now holds the record for the most-watched ever, garnering 718.6 million views in a 24-hour period. The new film shows Peter Parker banding together with familiar characters such as Bruce Banner and Frank Castle while he anonymously serves New York City as Spider-Man. Let's not delay - who wants to take a bite out of this big apple first?It's a three-for-one MCU week, with the announcement that a second season of Wonder Man is beginning production, and a title plus release date for the Punisher special presentation. All of the creatives behind Wonder Man are returning for the second season, including Destin Daniel Cretton as director and executive producer. Marvel announced the news with a social media post of the front of the script for the next season. Today, the film studio let us know that the Punisher tv special will be called “One Last Kill,” and is set to drop on May 12 the week after the finale of Daredevil: Born Again season two. So much here to bite off, what are we chewing on the most?Remember how all we can do is rave about Project Hail Mary? Well the box office agrees, as the Ryan Gosling-led film opened to $141 million globally last weekend, with $80.6 of that being domestic. In the era of sequel-verse, Hail Mary rivals only Oppenheimer for being the other film to pass this kind of benchmark that isn't a continuation of a franchise. No one here is surprised, but is the industry?Lightning RoundDisney has announced release dates for Lilo & Stitch 2 which is coming out on May 26, 2028, Memorial Day weekend, and Pixar's Incredibles 3, which debuts on June 16, 2028.Netflix has rounded out the main cast of the upcoming live action Scooby Doo series.

This week on Movie Mistrial, we take a road trip through music, prejudice, and unexpected friendship as we revisit Green Book.Green Book is an accessible, crowd-pleasing drama anchored by strong performances from Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali. Their chemistry brings warmth, humor, and emotional weight to a story about personal growth, cultural barriers, and human connection, making the film widely appealing and emotionally engaging.Despite its success, Green Book has drawn criticism for simplifying complex racial issues and framing them through a familiar “feel-good” lens. Some argue the film centers a white perspective and softens historical realities, reducing systemic injustice to individual moments of prejudice and reconciliation.Join us as we unpack the charm, controversy, and cultural conversation surrounding Green Book. Is it an uplifting story of empathy and change—or a well-made film that plays it too safe with difficult subject matter?Connect with us and share your thoughts:Twitter: http://tiny.cc/MistrialTwitterFacebook: http://tiny.cc/MistrialFBInstagram: http://tiny.cc/MistrialInstaVisit our website, www.moviemistrial.com, for more captivating episodes and to stay up-to-date with all things movies.

One of the breakout hits of 2016 was this based-on-a-true-story tale of the first manned missions to outer space. Focusing on the black women at NASA - mathematicians, engineers, and computers - who made these early spaceflights a reality through sheer brainpower while often going unrecognized for their contributions, Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, and Janelle Monáe star in this adaptation of Margot Lee Shetterly's book. Director Theodore Melfi chose Kevin Costner, Kirsten Dunst, Jim Parsons, Mahershala Ali, Aldis Hodge, and Glen Powell to round out the cast in this Best Picture Oscar nominee. But does too much melodrama subtract from the sum of this inspirational biopic? In honor of Black History Month, we're doing the math to see if all the accolades tallied by Hidden Figures still add up ten years after release.   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down a massive new wave of Marvel and DC rumors that could seriously reshape the future of some of the biggest franchises in Hollywood. From shocking reports about Marvel Studios canceling the long-troubled Blade solo movie to claims that Mahershala Ali's Daywalker may instead debut as part of a Midnight Sons team-up, there is a lot to unpack for MCU fans. We also dive into a surprising new direction for The Batman – Part II, where new rumors suggest the sequel could shift focus away from Harvey Dent and instead introduce Gilda Dent as a potential female Two-Face. What would that mean for Matt Reeves' Gotham and the tone of the sequel? On the Marvel side, the Spider-Man: Brand New Day rumor mill is heating up again, with Sadie Sink's name being strongly linked to Jean Grey in the MCU. Could Marvel be setting the stage for the X-Men through Peter Parker's next chapter? Plus, we discuss new Man of Tomorrow rumors, including a mysterious spoiler reference and the possibility of Wonder Woman appearing in the DCU's Superman film. How much of this is setup for the wider DC Universe, and what does it tell us about James Gunn's long-term plan?

This movie is mostly about the connection between two men from different worlds who learn to understand each other during a road trip.  It's a very entertaining film ... but looking back, did the Academy get it right and award the right film the top award at the Oscars Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Green Book as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 2018?Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching  Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHeart RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, BlueSkyShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messenger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.com or jackferdman@gmail.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.  It helps our podcast continue to reach many people and make it available to share more episodes with everyone.Send us a text

Witness the Rebirth….but is it a rebirth though? This week Billy and Raul tackle the Jurassic Park/World franchise…..again. Because much like Frankenstein, Universal cannot help themselves in milking this golden cash cow. We have a whole new consisting of Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali, Director for hire Gareth Edwards(Rauls “favorite”), and the promise of a fresh new take on the franchise. Does it actually work? Listen to see if life uh finds a way. Follow Billy and Raul on Bluesky @masterofpuns196 and @raulvaderdz as well as the main show @synspod

Vivi (Vicky), character design analyst and video essayist, joins the podcast to break down how fame is built, sold, and protected. After a clear-eyed look at the “next big thing” machine around actors like Mason Thames, we examine how Hollywood favors familiar, marketable faces, how race and colorism shape visibility, how listicles and PR language disguise old hierarchies as meritocracy, and why certain careers are pre-selected long before the audience thinks it has chosen.From there, we move into fame as a system through To Be Hero X, Oshi no Ko, and My Hero Academia: trust scores and hero towers, idol factories and weaponized fandom, rankings and school pipelines that turn human beings into managed brands. We connect how these stories show image as currency, audiences as enforcement, and corporations as the final arbiter of who is celebrated, discarded, or sacrificed.All this, plus the content creator pipeline, sponsorship logic, scandal management, selective cancellation, and what it means to live as a product in an attention economy that never switches off. This episode is direct, detailed, and unromantic about what modern fame demands—and what it quietly costs.0:00 – IntroShow open, “I've Been Meaning To Watch That” intro, this week's topic preview. 0:26 – Meet Vivi (Vicky)Vivi introduces herself, her character design work, and how she reads visual choices and tropes. 1:21 – Episode OverviewFraming the three texts (To Be Hero X, Oshi no Ko, My Hero Academia) and “fame as a system.” 2:07 – Media Mania: Mason Thames & Manufactured StarsVulture article, Mason Thames' three #1 films, “ordinary” palatable whiteness, comparison to Jim Carrey, Daniel Kaluuya, Mahershala Ali, Caleb McLaughlin vs co-stars, listicles, casting patterns, race and colorism in who gets momentum.25:00 – What Is Fame As A System?Defining fame beyond Hollywood: power in a name, internet volatility, person-to-product pipeline.36:29 – Enter To Be Hero X (Context + Why It Hits)Underrated status, production, anthology structure, trust value system, Hero Tower explained.40:53 – Style, Structure, and the Hero FactoryVisual language, hero/villain PR, reality show framing, shipping, consent, system manufacturing crime and narratives.51:05 – Trust vs Fear & Who Gets ProtectedHeroes as controlled assets, commission, balance of worship and terror, parallels to scandalous but untouchable figures. 1:12:04 – Oshi no Ko: Idol Industry and Weaponized ParasocialityPilot, reincarnation hook without plot spoiling, how the show dissects exploitation, image labor, fans as enforcement.1:54:04 – My Hero Academia: Hero Rankings and Marketable MoralitySeries summary, school-as-industry pipeline, quirks as brandable assets, Class 1-A vs 1-B, children groomed into a hero economy.2:22:15 – Endgame: Systems That Eat Their OwnClosing on endings discourse, systemic rot, why To Be Hero X reads like Oshi no Ko + MHA pushed to its logical conclusion. 2:31:48 – WatchlistUpcoming watches: Chainsaw Man movie, My Hero Academia catch-up, other anime on the radar.Vicky's Linktreehttps://linktr.ee/viviwithavTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@viviwithav2.0YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@viviwithavPodcast SocialsYouTube https://www.youtube.com/@ivebeenmeaningtowatchthatp2316Twitter: https://twitter.com/BeenMeaning2PodTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ivebeenmeaning2podFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ive-Been-Meaning-To-Watch-That-113280083760521/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ivebeenmeaning2/

This week, we're kicking off November with a look at the most recent entry in the Jurassic World franchise. Scarlett Johanson and Mahershala Ali star in Jurassic World: Rebirth where they lead a team of skilled operatives to an island research facility for the original Jurassic Park. Their mission is to secure genetic material from dinosaurs whose DNA can provide a pharmaceutical breakthrough that has the potential to cure heart disease. But, when their mission intersects with the Delgado family, whose boat capsized in dinosaur-infested waters, stranding them on the island, both groups confront not only the prehistoric predators that stalk the island but a sinister, long-hidden discovery buried within the facility's ruins. The expedition quickly transforms from a scientific endeavor into a fight for survival against creatures that have mutated and evolved in ways no one anticipated.

It's the seventh time mankind doesn't learn it's lesson, and unfortunately that goes for the writers, too. Nostalgia Critic takes a look at Jurassic World Rebirth. Come see us at Grand Rapids Comic-Con - https://www.grcomiccon.com/ Join our YouTube Members - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiH828EtgQjTyNIMH6YiOSw/join Last weeks Nostalgia Critic - https://youtu.be/LHK3kyXfRLk Check out our store - https://channelawesome.myshopify.com/ Support this month's charity - https://solvecfs.org/ Jurassic World Rebirth is a 2025 American science fiction action film directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp. A standalone sequel to Jurassic World Dominion (2022), it is the fourth Jurassic World film as well as the seventh installment overall in the Jurassic Park franchise. The film stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein. In Jurassic World Rebirth, the world's de-extinct dinosaurs live around the equator, which provides the last viable climate for them to survive. A team travels to a former island research facility where the three mountainous dinosaurs reside, with the goal of extracting samples that are vital for a heart disease treatment. The team also rescues a shipwrecked family, and both groups struggle to survive after becoming stranded on the island. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As marketing ramped up for Jurassic World Rebirth, there were multiple questions about just what the hell this film was going to be. There was no Colin Trevorrow, no Chris Pratt, and no Bryce Dallas Howard. Instead, we had Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and, much to Adam's chagrin, director Gareth Edwards (2014's Godzilla). So, what exactly were we in for? That's what we're here to discuss. With theatrical stories to tell, the guys come in and talk about what their expectations for Rebirth were going in, as well as if it lived up to any of them. This Jurassic World series has been a tough set of weeks for us. Can this update of ‘dinos on the chase' be a nice end to the series? Also, be sure to stay tuned until the end, as we talk about what we're doing next, and it involves another big creature attacking story. Though this one, might be the one that started it all. What is it? Listen and find out!!

Before the MCU, Marvel brought one of its darkest heroes to life in Blade (1998), a groundbreaking horror-action hybrid that paved the way for modern superhero films. Directed by Stephen Norrington (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) and written by David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight, Man of Steel), Blade follows the half-human, half-vampire “Daywalker” Blade (Wesley Snipes – Demolition Man, White Men Can't Jump) as he wages a one-man war against the vampire underworld. Alongside his grizzled mentor Abraham Whistler (Kris Kristofferson – A Star Is Born, Lone Star), Blade takes on the ruthless and charismatic Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff – True Detective, Somewhere), who seeks to unleash La Magra, the Blood God, in one of the most memorable finales in comic book cinema. Iconic moments include the legendary opening blood rave club scene, Blade's unforgettable line “Some motherf***ers are always trying to ice skate uphill,” and the explosive showdown that cemented the character as a cult icon. Also starring N'Bushe Wright (Fresh, Dead Presidents) as Dr. Karen Jenson, Donal Logue (Sons of Anarchy, Gotham) as Quinn, and Udo Kier (Suspiria, Flesh for Frankenstein) as Dragonetti.

“Adrian Brody is too good of an actor to be in a B-movie like this.” - Andrew On this week's episode, we're chatting about the outrageously late sequel, Predators! This is the one where a bunch of strangers get dropped into a Predators' hunting arena planet and have to survive being hunted by our beloved, be-dreadlocked alien warriors! But, why can't we get subtitles on these guys so we can see some Predator conversations? Why does the movie lose interest in its pretty cool original premise? Why is there an 11th hour serial killer reveal? And how do you put the great Laurence Fishburne in a two-second role like this? PLUS: Coming this fall to NBC, Predator: Cheers! Predators stars Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, Walton Goggins, Oleg Taktarov, Danny Trejo, Louis Ozawa, Mahershala Ali, and Laurence Fishburne as Ronald Noland; directed by Nimród Antal.

It's an explosive episode of the Breakfast All Day podcast for you on this Fourth of July holiday. We begin with the big movie of the week, "Jurassic World: Rebirth" which aims to reboot the decades-long "Jurassic" franchise. Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey are all wildly overqualified for running from freakish, mutant dinosaurs. In theaters. Next up is one of the best movies ever made, and that's not hyperbole: Wong Kar Wai's masterpiece "In the Mood for Love" is back in theaters for its 25th anniversary. If you've never seen this gorgeous, achingly romantic movie projected, here's your chance. The impossibly glamorous Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung co-star. Check here to see if it's playing near you: https://inthemoodforlove25.film/. Then we have another throwback review: "This Is Spinal Tap," which is in theaters for its 41st anniversary. The OG mockumentary about a British rock band on the decline is still hilarious and infinitely quotable all these years later. It's back for a limited run, and you can get tickets here: https://www.fathomentertainment.com/releases/this-is-spinal-tap/. Finally, we did our version of The New York Times' list of the best films of the century. We each picked 10 favorites from the past 25 years, but came at it from different perspectives with very different results. This was a tough but fun assignment! What would you put on your list? Thanks for being here and enjoy the holiday weekend! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

Sean and Amanda are joined by Chris Ryan to lead a team of skilled operatives to the most dangerous place on earth, a ‘Jurassic Park' sequel.

Then, they unpack their complicated and (at times) contentious feelings on the newest installment of the dinosaur action franchise, Gareth Evans's ‘Jurassic World Rebirth,' starring Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali (9:45). Later, Sean is joined by Eva Victor to discuss their critically acclaimed first feature film, ‘Sorry, Baby.'
