Juni is de maand van vele dingen (examens, festivalseizoen, …), maar toch bovenal van onze Zwino! Hij blaast namelijk deze maand zijn verjaardagskaarsen uit en dat betekent niets meer of niets minder dan (tijdelijke) alleenheerschappij.Gelukkig is hij de verkeerdste niet en gaf hij zijn makkers Peer en Poelie een keuze tussen twee films met in één van de hoofdrollen een Marvel-acteur. Peer kwam uit bij een Samuel L. Jackson vehikel, bomvol actie (what-else), genaamd THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT. Zwino werd betoverd door de wondermooie Scarlet Johansson en trok samen met Bill Murray naar Japan voor LOST IN TRANSLATION. Poelie tenslotte trok terug naar zijn kindertijd met Mark Ruffalo voor 13 GOING ON 30. We konden bovendien niemand beter bedenken om een verjaardagsfeest op te luisteren dan The Cruiser himself. Hij viel pardoes met zijn parachute in de verjaardagstaart en de Cinemaat nam ons dan maar mee naar het slotstuk van een franchise die nieuwe standaarden zette qua actie-blockbusters: MISSION IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING.Van een spetterend feest gesproken.Geniet ervan Zwino én luisteraars!jullie kunnen ons ook mailen naar moviematterspodcast@hotmail.com Volg ook onze socials: (1) Movie Matters Podcast Op facebook en op instagram: @_moviematterspodcast_ • Volg ons via Letterboxd: Zwino: ‎ThomasZwino's profile • Letterboxd Peer: ‎Lpereboom's profile • Letterboxd Tim:  ‎Tim Poelman's profile • en https://boxd.it/4Y95L En Join onze discord waar we samen gezellig over films kunnen praten: https://discord.gg/Krq6uXGWFm

Devil's urine. That's what Dupont employees called PFAS. These toxic, human made forever chemicals are now in the blood of almost every human on the planet. They are found in drinking water around the world, even Antarctica. And they are used in a broad range of consumer products, like non-stick cookware, stain-resistant clothing, waterproof items, dental floss, and even medical masks. These are only a few examples of many. This group of toxic chemicals, perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), permanently concentrates in your body and the environment. You can't get rid of them. In fact, they bioaccumulate, meaning they get worse and worse. The public awareness from uncovering of the truth behind Dupont's misdeeds now contaminating much of the planet is tantamount to this generation's Silent Spring. Our guest Rob Bilott is very much a Rachel Carson sort of figure who has stood up to the chemical industry as the lead attorney to bring light to the dangers of PFAS and its many variations. He fought and won a 20+ year battle against Dupont for the poisoning of over 70,000 people in West Virginia and Ohio. His work was even captured in the 2019 feature film, Dark Waters where he was portrayed by Mark Ruffalo. Rob has continued his groundbreaking work and is looking at the potential of a nationwide class action lawsuit as newer versions of PFAS emerge, unregulated and as dangerous as ever. In this interview from Summer 2022, we explore the history of PFAS, what exposure means, where it can be found, and what we can do. Rob Bilott is a partner in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky offices of the law firm, Taft Stettinius & Hollister LLP [https://www.taftlaw.com/people/robert-a-bilott], where he has practiced in the Environmental and Litigation Groups for over 31 years. During that time, Rob has handled and led some of the most novel and complex cases in the country involving damage from exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS”), including the first individual, class action, mass tort, and multi-district litigation proceedings concerning the toxic chemical, recovering over $1 billion for impacted clients. In 2017, Rob received the Right Livelihood Award, known as the “Alternative Nobel Prize,” for his decades of work on behalf of those injured by PFAS chemical contamination. Rob is the author of the book, “Exposure: Poisoned Water, Corporate Greed, and One Lawyer's Twenty-Year Battle Against DuPont,” [https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Exposure/Robert-Bilott/9781501172823] and his story is the inspiration for the 2019 motion picture, “Dark Waters,” starring Mark Ruffalo. Rob's story and work is also featured in the documentary, “The Devil We Know.” Jessica Aldridge, Co-Host and Producer of EcoJustice Radio, is an environmental educator, community organizer, and 15-year waste industry leader.

Folge #221: Zwischen Klon-Chaos und schrulliger SatirePodcast-Vermissung, Sound-Fetischismus und ein Film, der Erwartungen auf den Kopf stellt! Nach einem kleinen technischen Holperstart und dem Geständnis, dass Timo seine eigene Stimme eigentlich ganz gerne hört (Selbstliebe ist wichtig!), geht's direkt in die Vollen. Danach wird's filmisch: Zeljko hat sich Raging Fire noch einmal angesehen, einen chinesischen Action-Polizei-Thriller mit Donnie Yen, der auch im Rewatch noch ordentlich knallt, auch wenn das Make-up manchmal etwas zu glattgebügelt wirkte. Timo hat derweil die Horrorkomödie Borderline mit Samara Weaving und Ray Nicholson (Jack Nicholsons Sohn, der seinem Vater verblüffend ähnlichsieht) entdeckt – ein skurriler und witziger Trip über einen Stalker und sein Opfer, der mit abgefahrenen Ideen und guter Kameraarbeit punktet. Außerdem stand bei Timo die deutsche Wokeness-Komödie Alter weißer Mann auf dem Programm. Der Film von Simon Verhoeven nimmt aktuelle Reizthemen wie Gendersternchen und KI aufs Korn, bleibt dabei aber eher harmlos und oberflächlich. Für Timo ein ganz okay-er Film für zwischendurch, der aber keine tiefen Spuren hinterlässt. Das führt zu einer kleinen, aber wichtigen Diskussion über deutsche Komödien im Allgemeinen. Der Film der Woche ist diesmal Bong Joon-hos (Parasite) neuester Streich: Mickey 17. Robert Pattinson spielt Mickey, einen "Expendable" auf einem fremden Planeten, dessen Körper nach jedem Tod geklont wird. Der Film entpuppt sich als schrullige Sci-Fi-Satire mit Tim-Burton-artigen Zügen und wirft dabei durchaus ernste Fragen zur Ethik des Klonens und der Kolonialisierung auf. Timo hatte zwar etwas mehr Ernsthaftigkeit im Stil von Parasite erwartet, fand den Film aber dennoch sehr unterhaltsam und clever. Zeljko feierte den Humor und die abgedrehte Prämisse. Mark Ruffalo und Toni Collette als überzeichnete Führungspersönlichkeiten sorgen für zusätzliche Lacher, auch wenn ihre Charaktere bewusst platt angelegt sind. Ein Film, der Spaß macht, zum Nachdenken anregt und mit einem starken Robert Pattinson überzeugt. Eine Folge, die von technischen Finessen im Heimkino über Filmfestival-Nostalgie bis hin zu gesellschaftskritischen Sci-Fi-Komödien reicht – wie immer mit viel Leidenschaft und persönlichen Einblicken. Also, Ohren auf und ab in die Welt von "Once Upon A Time In Cinema - Der Filmpodcast" – jeden Donnerstag um 18:00 Uhr, überall wo es Podcasts gibt!

Send us a textRemember Collateral from Michael Mann starring Jamie Foxx and arguably the biggest movie star worldwide, Tom Cruise? We didn't remember a lot from this movie either. What we did remember was that it was more realistic than your average action film of the time, and Jada Pinkett Smith seemed normal. But with these two mega stars, this director, and a supporting cast that is downright diabolical, we have high hopes.Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

Bill is back next week from his research and writing sabbatical. While he's gone, we decided it's important to revisit the horrors we laid out in our Project 2025 podcast series, Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal – and have the series author, pro-democracy advocate and the author of nine books, David Pepper, tie them to what's actually happened so far. In Chapter 11, set in November in Tallahassee, fictional Florida, Governor Buck Bryce confidently addresses the press regarding Hurricane Timothy, initially predicted to be a manageable Category 1 storm. However, the hurricane unexpectedly strengthens to a devastating Category 4 upon landfall, causing widespread destruction and significant loss of life. The governor, previously assured by Washington that all preparations were sufficient, is confronted with the reality of inadequate storm forecasting due to recent cuts to federal meteorological services as proposed by Project 2025 and now DOGE following through.As emergency response efforts falter, Bryce grapples with the new federal policies under Trump that make it difficult to declare emergencies and provide immediate assistance to affected businesses and citizens.(As is now actually happening: Under President Donald Trump, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has denied federal assistance for tornadoes in Arkansas, flooding in West Virginia and a windstorm in Washington state. It also has refused North Carolina's request for extended relief funding in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. This fictional but predictive narrative highlights the consequences of disregarding climate science and federal data, resulting in death and destructionAs always, the series author, David Pepper updates on how what he predicted has come to pass.We'd like to thank all the artists who volunteered their time to make this episode:Mark Ruffalo who read the chapter and others who contributed character voices. Sound design by Jonathan Moser.Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal is written by David Pepper and produced by Pepper, Melissa Jo Peltier and Jay Feldman and is a production of Ovington Avenue Productions and The Bill Press Pod.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“Whedon at the line….oh, no, another brick!” - Steve, on the screenplay clunkers On this week's episode, the 2025 Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza kicks off with a trip to Franchise Town as we discuss the fun, Spader-tastic sequel, Avengers: Age of Ultron! How great is James Spader with this Ultron performance? Are there too many characters in this fully-loaded movie? Should they have written mutant characters when they couldn't use the word ‘mutant' anywhere in the script? And would Ultron have been more menacing if he was given a big, mechanical mustache? PLUS: What in the world is going on with the Maximoffs' accents here? Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Cobie Smulders, Anthony Mackie, Hayley Atwell, Idris Elba, Linda Cardellini, Stellan Skarsgård, Claudia Kim, Thomas Kretschman, Andy Serkis, and James Spader as Ultron; directed by noted jerk, Joss Whedon.

“Sinema Kulübü'müzün 21'inci buluşmasında Yorgos Lanthimos'un yönettiği, başrollerinde Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo ve Willem Dafoe'nun yer aldığı, 2023 yılı yapımı, orijinal adı “Poor Things” olan, bizde “Zavallılar” adıyla gösterime giren filmi konuştuk.Filmde, Victoria dönemi atmosferinde, eksantrik bilim insanı Dr. Godwin Baxter tarafından yeniden hayata döndürülen Bella Baxter'ın, kendi kimliğini ve özgürlüğünü keşfetme yolculuğunu anlatılıyor. Bella, ilk başta dünyaya karşı tamamen masum ve bilgisiz bir şekilde yaklaşırken, zamanla hem bireysel arzularını hem de toplumsal baskıları sorgulamaya başlıyor.Victoria dönemi Kraliçe Viktoriya'nın hüküm sürdüğü 1837-1901 yıllarına karşılık geliyor ve bu dönem sanayi devrimi ile birlikte emek sömürüsü ve işçi hakları gibi toplumsal ve ekonomik konularla anılıyor. Günümüzde de iş hayatını ve toplumsal hayatı kökten değiştiren teknolojik ve siyasi bir atmosferden geçerken film yaşadıklarımıza bir anlamda ışık tutuyor.Film, büyüme, özgürleşme ve kişisel iradenin oluşumu temalarını, mizahi bir dille ve çarpıcı görselliklerle işliyor. Bella'nın hikâyesi, özellikle kadınların kendi hayatları üzerinde söz sahibi olabilmesi, toplumun dayattığı rollerin aşılması ve bireyin yeniden doğarak kendi yolunu çizmesi üzerine derinlikli bir anlatı sunuyor. Yorgos Lanthimos, seyirciyi hem görsel olarak büyülüyor hem de rahatsız edici derecede doğrudan sorular sormaya teşvik ediyor. Gerçekten üzerinde uzun uzun konuşabileceğimiz replikler var.Film, 96. Akademi Ödülleri'nde En İyi Film, En İyi Yönetmen ve En İyi Uyarlama Senaryo'nun da aralarında olduğu 11 dalda Oscar'a aday gösterildi. En İyi Kadın Oyuncu (Emma Stone), En İyi Prodüksiyon Tasarımı, En İyi Kostüm Tasarımı ve En İyi Makyaj ve Saç Tasarımı olmak üzere dört dalda Oscar ödülüne layık görüldü.Biz de oyunculukları çok beğendik, çünkü çok fantastik öğeler barındıran bir ortamda o karakterleri yaratmak bir ustalık işi. Filmi hem görsel nitelikleriyle hem de mesajlarıyla beğendik, size de önce izlemenizi sonra bizi dinlemenizi tavsiye ederiz.Bu bölümde görüşlerine yer verebildiğim arkadaşlarım(02:35) Suat Soy, (06:48) Elif Burcu Yılmaz, (08:55) Ebru Vural, (10:24) Olcay Çat, (11:35) Cem Çağatay Karaali, (14:54) Uğur İyidoğan ve (16:22) Gamze Şenfer.Support the show

While Bill is on a research and writing sabbatical for the next 4 weeks we decided it's important to revisit the horrors we laid out in our Project 2025 podcast series, Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal – and tie them to what's actually happened so far. The story that leads off Chapter 6 captures the struggles of 12-year-old Alvaro and his mother in a fictional detention center in West Texas. Alvaro expresses his hunger to his mother, who is too weak to properly care for herself. As they navigate the deteriorating conditions of the camp—overcrowded with diminishing food supplies, hostile guards, and a sense of fear from both authorities and fellow detainees—Alvaro reflects on lost friendships and longing for better times. His mother's health declines as she sacrifices for him, giving him her piece of bread despite needing it more herself. This highlights Alvaro's growing awareness of their desperate situation. He learns from a friend, Manuel, about possible escape routes and decides to plan his own escape to ensure both his and his mother's safety.In the second half of Chapter 6, in a parallel narrative, soldier Jake Caldwell describes the chaos of the detention center from his perspective. As he witnesses the overwhelming influx of women and children, he feels the systemic failures of the camp. The environment strips away humanity, leading children to escape in search of freedom. As both narratives unfold, Alvaro attempts to escape the camp, filled with hope for a future where he can see his mother smile again even as Jake grapples with the moral dilemmas of his role in the oppressive system. Their stories intertwine themes of resilience, sacrifice, and the harsh realities faced by both detainees and guards in the unjust conditions of the camp.We'd like to thank all the artists who volunteered their time to make this episode:Mark Ruffalo and Andrea Guidry who read the chapters and others who contributed character voices.

Climactic is an early-stage venture fund investing in the energy, AI, automation, and robotics sectors to address climate change and its effects. It is backed by folks like Chris Sacca, Reid Hoffman, Mio Partners, and StepStone.Prior to Climactic, Josh co-founded Freestyle Capital, where he sourced or invested in the unicorns: Airtable, Patreon, Betterup, and Intercom. He was a pioneer in the early days of the Internet where he co-founded Spinner, the first Internet music startup, acquired by AOL for $320M, and Crackle, a viral video startup, acquired by Sony for $65M. Josh's commitment to the environment is long-standing; he started a nonprofit app in 2014 to connect influencers (NBA, Guns N Roses, Mark Ruffalo, Al Gore, Evan Williams) to the most important climate actions from the leading nonprofits. --Here are six topics we covered in the podcast:Origins with Rock Stars and PresidentsJosh Felser co-founded ClimateX, connecting users to 100+ environmental nonprofits with partners like Al Gore, Guns N' Roses, and the NBA.Why He Left Traditional VCAfter success at Freestyle Capital, COVID and a five-month role in California's government led Josh to shift from consumer tech to climate venture, realizing business's role in systemic change.Climactic's EvolutionJosh and Raj Kapoor launched Climactic as a B2B climate tech fund, later narrowing their focus to AI and automation for enterprise sustainability and profitability.Two Portfolio BetsClimactic invested in Grit (robotics for faster, cheaper solar installs) and Copper (battery-integrated induction stoves for apartment electrification).Climate Messaging in the MAGA EraJosh advocates re-framing climate language—e.g., using “conservation” over “environmentalism”—to resonate with conservative audiences without losing authenticity.Personal WellnessJosh finds balance through humor, avoiding the 5 AM club, emotional resilience, and grounding reminders like a Buddha statue at his Stinson Beach home.--

In this episode of Nerd Legion, hosts Monte and DoA take a break from their 1980s fantasy marathon to discuss 'Mickey 17,' director Bong Joon Ho's latest science fiction film. They first delve into the movie's box office struggles and introduce Bong Joon-ho's history, noting his thematic blend of class conflict, environmentalism, and existentialism. The hosts critique the film for its rich moments of subtle humor and innovative concepts but argue it becomes unfocused in the second half, shifting from existential questions to heavy-handed political themes. They analyze Robert Pattinson's standout dual role performance, along with contributions from other notable actors like Mark Ruffalo and Toni Collette. The episode wraps with reflections on Bong Joon Ho's recurring themes and a funny personal anecdote about South Korea's macaron shop craze, highlighted within the film. They conclude that while 'Mickey 17' is visually appealing and entertaining, it doesn't reach the same profound levels as the director's previous works like 'Parasite' or 'Memories of Murder.'

In this episode, author Edward Ashton joins me to discuss the film Mickey 17, directed by Bong Joon Ho, based on Edward's book Mickey 7. The film and the book series explores themes of unfettered capitalism, whether or not people have souls, and the theoretical possibilities of colonizing other planets. In an earlier episode, I interviewed Edward Ashton about his book Mickey 7 and the sequel Antimatter Blues. At the time he had told me that Brad Pitt had picked up the rights to his film for Warner Brothers starring Robert Pattinson in the title role and costarring Toni Collete, Naomi Ackie, and Mark Ruffalo. Now that Edward is free from the NDAs he had signed during filming, we are able to discuss the exciting process of seeing his book turned into a new creative work.

It's been six long years since the last Bong Joon-ho film, Parasite, swept through the 2020 Oscars, including the prize of Best Picture. A beloved filmmaker that has brought us both intimate, grounded thrillers as well as propulsive genre yarn, Bong Joon-ho is once again dipping his toe into sci-fi class warfare with Mickey 17. Featuring Robert Pattinson in multiple roles and another "freaky little guy" routine, does Mickey 17 continue the South Korean director's streak of bracing storytelling?

Bong Joon Ho (Snowpiercer, The Host) returns from his Oscar triumph five years ago with his first directorial effort since his worldwide smash Parasite, which remains the ONLY foreign language film to ever win the Oscar for Best Picture.  This time around, he's directing a high concept sci-fi comedy adventure taking place in the future focusing on Mickey (Robert Pattinson) who works as an "Expendable" for a growing organization looking to colonize a snowy desolate planet.  His job entails being used as a tester of various hostile environments, new viruses, potential vaccines, and any number of deadly situations which can occur on said planet.  The key to his survival is that he doesn't survive most of these ordeals....they have the technology to simply clone him again to restart the process. :o And hilarity ensues!  Also among this stacked cast are Naomi Ackie, Mark Ruffalo, Toni Collette, and Steven Yuen.  For Mickey, it's time to find out if the 17th time's the Charm. ;) Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

If you thought one Robert Pattinson was good, wait 'til you see two of them in "Mickey 17."  We couldn't wait to review the latest sci-fi/satire extravaganza from the great South Korean auteur Bong Joon Ho, his first film since the historic Oscar wins of his 2019 masterpiece, "Parasite." But while we both enjoyed Pattinson's dual performances, we're split on how effective "Mickey 17" is as a whole. Co-starring Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Mark Ruffalo and Toni Collette. In theaters now.

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham, Giovanni Lago, Brendan Hodges, Tom O'Brien, and I are here to discuss and review the latest film from Academy Award-winning South Korean filmmaking Bong Joon Ho, his much-anticipated follow-up to his historic Best Picture Oscar-winning film, "Parasite," an adaptation of the 2022 sci-fi novel "Mickey 7," titled "Mickey 17," starring Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo. After numerous delays, clashes with Warner Bros., and the highest budget Bong has ever had to work with, the film had a ton of skepticism heading into it but received positive reviews following its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Imagine being a lawyer for BIG chemical companies… and then finding out they've been knowingly poisoning people for DECADES. That's exactly what happened to Environmental Attorney Robert Billott when a desperate farmer walked into his office with proof that something evil was happening.What started as one case turned into a MASSIVE legal battle exposing the truth about Forever Chemicals—toxic substances lurking in our water, our products, and even our bodies. His story inspired the documentary 'The Devil We Know' AND the Hollywood film 'Dark Waters' starring Mark Ruffalo and Anne Hathaway. He's also the author of Exposure, where he spills ALL the details. Today, Robert joins Culture Apothecary to break down what's REALLY in our water—and what we can do about it.Thank you to our sponsors!
