Podcasts about Operation Avalanche

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we decided to mix up the formula a little bit and watch a sort-of-documentary, sort-of-mockumentary, sort-of-reality, sort-of-fiction film. We watched and discussed the 2016 movie Operation Avalanche, co-starring the director and writer of the film, Matt Johnson. How exactly did the two CIA agents come up with a plan to fake the moon landing? How does a blending of reality and fiction lend to a conspiracy theory narrative? We discuss all this and more!

PREVIEW: #ITALY: #1943: Conversation with historian James Holland, author of THE SAVAGE STORM, re the choice of Mark Clark as the American Fifth Army commander for Operation AVALANCHE -- expected to be quickly successful as the Italians changed sides and the Germans retreated north of Rome.  It didn't happen that way. More details in a two-hour show tonight.  1943 Italy        

Tape #3: No one is going to think this is fake, because how insane would that be?This week, Wii Shop songwriter and copyright law provocateur Matt Johnson shoots his moonshot. Jacob unpacks an impressive London bus montage. Matt steps on the gas. Both threaten to turn this into an episode on 2001: A Space Odyssey.

This week, we’re reviewing Matt Johnson’s BlackBerry. As huge fans of Matt Johnson’s previous works (The Dirties, Operation Avalanche & Nirvanna the Band the Show), we’re very excited to finally be able to watch BlackBerry. The question is: Will it live up to our expectations..? Music: BlackBerry Movie Score Suite by Jay McCarroll

In this episode of America: Fog of War, Brett and Colby highlight the individual who, originally deemed to be too small by Army standards, goes on to become the Army's most decorated combat veteran of World War II.

Film and Wrestling fans rejoice as we step back inside the squared circle for Part 2 of our interview with Andy Appelle!  Having just wrapped Operation Avalanche, Andy and the same team come together again to make one of the greatest Canadian shows of all time, Nirvanna the Band The Show where Andy would serve as writer, editor and cinematographer.  We then talk about Psycho Gorman, Andy's next project as Cinematographer and then we end with a swerve...Wrestling!  Andy would find himself working alongside Jason Eisener and Evan Husney as Cinematographer on Vice's Dark Side of the Ring and then directing the epic show Tales from the Territories and now directing the newest season of Dark Side of the Ring which is airing now on Crave.  

Andy Appelle was born and raised in Thunder Bay and actually started his film career acting in Conflix films before heading to Toronto to start his career as a successful Writer, Editor, Cinematographer and Director!  In this first part of our interview we trace Andy's time acting in Thunder Bay, directing his first short film Little Matthew, landing a spot on the crew of the Slamdance winning film The Dirties and we will end with his role as cinematographer on the brilliant feature film Operation Avalanche!

It's about time we look at some movies from the homeland with some appreciation and admiration. For those not in the know, have no fear, Can-Con is simply Canadian content, so we're starting what will be a yearly trek into the Northern film wilderness. We'll get weird. We'll get wild. I'll have a weird, sad tangent on my personal fears over the looming spectre of artificial intelligence. Films discussed include: Clearcut, Slash/Back, Viking, I Like Movies, Blackberry, The Dirties and Operation Avalanche.

Randy watches a fake television special, "Give Me Pity"- and liked it. Clark praises "Blackberry", which leans more tragedy than biopic. Russ shares his journey with the new series, "Dead Ringers" and ties in his recent experience with childbirth. Also, Clark and Russ discuss their "Big Shark" screening experience with Tommy Wiseau - included at the end of the episode is the Q&A from the screening. Also, also - Clark finally saw Scream VI and the boys freely discuss the film. That means spoilers.

On this week's Richard Crouse Show: It's hard to remember now, but there was a time when we were not tethered to our smart phones. A new film, “BlackBerry,” starring Jay Baruchel and Matt Johnson, and now playing in theatres, vividly recreates the scrappy story of friendship, betrayal and hubris that began our obsession with our phones. Today, we going to focus on that story, courtesy of the film BlackBerry, which opens in theatres on May 12. There was a time when the Canadian made, odd little phone, with a QWERTY keyboard, encrypted messaging and low data cost, was a status symbol, used by some of the world' most powerful people. In the hands of everyone from President Barack Obama and Justin Timberlake to Katy Perry and Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, the phones helped the world communicate in a whole new way. They were the original smart phones, which makes their Canadian creators Mike Lazaridis and Doug Fregin, visionaries, the men who gave us the future. Recently I sat down with BlackBerry co-writer, co-star and director Matt Johnson, and Jay Baruchel who stars as the awkward genius behind the BlackBerry tech, Mike Lazaridis. Matt is the director of The Dirties, which won Best Narrative Feature at the Slamdance Film Festival, Operation Avalanche, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and mockumentary television series Nirvanna the Band the Show. You know Jay from his voice role as Hiccup Haddock in the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, and for roles in Knocked Up, Tropic Thunder, The Trotsky, Fanboys, She's Out of My League, Goon, This Is the End, and the action-fantasy film The Sorcerer's Apprentice. You can also see him as the host of We're All Gonna Die (Even Jay Baruchel) on Crave. BlackBerry is the story of the company Research in Motion, Jim Balsillie, the hotheaded businessman, played by Glenn Howerton, who was there for the rise and fall of the iconic company. “BlackBerry” isn't just a business story or the story of innovation. Instead, it is an underdog tale that emphasizes the human foibles that led to RIM's downfall, not just the financial ones. We began the interview with the idea of talking about the film, but were soon sidetracked by a discussion inspired by the lessons learned from the film, about what it means to be Canadian, why we don't celebrate our own stories and much more. Stay tuned, it often doesn't sound like an interview as much as a conversation we might have had over a drink or two. Like the movie we were supposed to concentrate on, before the conversation took a few left turns, the interview is passionate, patriotic, funny and not quite what you might expect.

Inspired by Matthew Miller and Matt Johnson's THE DIRTIES, teenage angst, and a certainty that last thing people remember about high school is lesson plan, Ethan Eng's hurls itself head first into everything else that makes high school memorable in his award winning debut film, THERAPY DOGS. Ethan and his best friend Justin are students trying to make sense of their high school existence. In what will be the last chapter of their teenage lives and the beginning of adulthood and beyond, they decide to make the ultimate senior video in the search for answers. Exploring teenage suburbia in a no-brakes adventure, questions arise whether there's more to their lives than simply growing up. Director, writer and lead actor Ethan Eng joins us for a conversation on the remarkably accomplished debut film that masterfully blends together documentary, narrative, skater punk and high school “senior project” elements to create something wholly unique and compelling, as well as how his collaboration with fellow lead actor and producer Justin Morrice and enlisting Matthew Miller and Matt Johnson (The Dirties, Operation Avalanche) to be THERAPY DOGS executive producers.

In this week's episode we talk about one of the most famous conspiracy theories of all - did we land on the moon? We talk about some popular theories that people will say prove that not only did we not land on the moon, but that it wouldn't have been possible. Take a listen and see what you think.

For this episode I had a chat with DIY filmmaker Matt Johnson. Matt has found critical acclaim with his 2013 film The Dirties, a found-footage mockumentary film tackling the much discussed topic of gun control and bullying in a high school, which went on to win the Grand Jury Prize at the Slamdance Film Festival. His following film Operation Avalanche saw him and his team infiltrate NASA to shoot another found footage project based around the topic of the Apollo 11 moon landings. Were the moon landings fake? Watch the film AND YOU DECIDE. But most recently, he has co-written and starred in the Vice comedy series Nirvanna The Band The Show with Jay McCarrol, where he plays a helpless musician, possibly with a large chip in his brain coming up with plans and schemes to play at his favourite restaurant. Sit back to our chat with a martini and steak bake... For more updates follow the podcast on Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/thecupodcast/

Giving me a platform to talk about the work of director Matt Johnson was perhaps a mistake. It made him too happy. The opportunity to talk about Nirvanna The Band The Show, Operation Avalanche, AND The Dirties?! Madness. Hopefully you listeners can tell how much I like this guy and his guerrilla style of filmmaker and I hope you consider watching his TV shows or films. Canada! Whodathunk.  Also we discuss the Atlanta Child Murders HBO doc for all you true crime podcast fanatics. I hear true crime is very hip with the kids these days. 

Do you believe the moon landing was faked? This found footage movie (pseudo documentary) just might challenge your beliefs in that area, me and The Chris talk about this movie and discuss how we feel about the moon landing, not our regular type of movie, it runs a bit slow for us, so the episode seems a bit slow to us, hope you still enjoy it.

Couch Critics review one of Cooper's favorite movies growing up, The Dirties. The Dirties is a small movie made in 2013 by Director and lead actor Matt Johnson which won Best Narrative Feature at the Slamdance Film Festival, and Operation Avalanche (2016), which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. He has since left filmmaking but is still working on his TV show called Nirvana The Band The Show. Couch Critics do a short spoiler free review for those of you who haven't seen it yet then go more in depth for those of you who have seen this independent movie or when you go and watch it and come back to the review!

There was no episode last week and for this, we Apollo-gise… To make up for it, we’ve now got a review of Operation Avalanche that’s out of this world (Spoilers: 30:41 – 40:29)! In our news section, the headlines are trailers for Black Panther and Daddy’s Home 2. Other topics to discuss include Season 5 […]

I am so psyched (is being psyched still a thing) that our guest on This Movie’s About You this week chooses Curtis Hanson’s Wonder Boys as one of the films for his double bill. We’re pretty lucky to get Matthew Miller whose credits include producer, cinematographer, writer, editor, director…the list goes on. I’m familiar with Miller through his work with filmmaker, Matt Johnson and their projects Operation Avalanche and The Dirties, as well as the t.v. series, Nirvana the Band, the Show. But I feel like I know him even better after chatting with him about the academic mayhem that is Wonder Boys (Miller has a pretty extensive academic life himself) and the ironically hip culture in High Fidelity (his other film choice). And when we try to do our giveaway - Miller steps in with an giveaway offer Louis and I just couldn’t refuse!

Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Alan Arkin decide to rob a bank in Zach Braff's new movie. Dave and Tom decide to spend most of the episode talking about other movies. Also: Life, The Lego Batman Movie, Loving, 20th Century Women, A Monster Calls, Deepwater Horizon, Operation Avalanche, Alone In Berlin, VHS, Accidental Love, Down Terrace, The Outlaw And His Wife, Gaslight, The Letter, The Petrified Forest, The Bad Seed, After The Thin Man, Arsene Lupin.

Apologies for the lax Film Chat service lately! Some technical weasels and gremlins have been clogging up our efforts to transfer to premier podcasting platform Acast, and it's caused a couple of delays. Don't worry though, a team of expensive nerds is working on the problem and we've been assured it will all be sorted soon. Until then, here is the latest chat! Consisting of reviews of a trio of independent films -- lyrical coming-of-age documentary All This Panic, arthouse torture porn The Eyes of My Mother, and mockumentary thriller Operation Avalanche. Something for everyone, except explosion fans. Not many explosions. We also discuss whether Robert Downey Jr. will make a good Dr. Dolittle, we talk about fairy tales' backwards attitudes to interracial marriage, and we spend a surprisingly long time discussing racial purity, in the sort of tangent you have to save until episode 111 if you want to keep any listeners whatsoever.

NASA holds a special place in the hearts of Star Trek fans and this week on Engage, Jordan talks with Matt Johnson, Director/Writer/Actor of Operation Avalanche, a found footage film about two young filmmakers who film a fake moon landing in 1967. Jordan and Matt talk about how the movie was actually filmed at the NASA campus in Galveston, TX and also about some of Matt’s favorite Star Trek characters and his ideal Trek bridge crew. Jordan also addresses the delayed release for Star Trek: Discovery.

Sometimes there’s just too much good stuff to cover so this week I am going to talk with a pair of filmmakers from wildly divergent films but what makes them fun to combine into one podcast is that one is a real documentary — "For the Love of Spock" — and one is a fake documentary — "Operation Avalanche."

In this episode acclaimed director, writer, and Canadian Matt Johnson stops by the studio to tell us the real deal truth about the moon landing. Namely, that it for sure actually happened! Turns out he knows more than just about anyone under 70 about lunar landings, because he had to become an expert to make his magnificent movie Operation Avalanche. If you're a fan of independent film, science, powerful storytelling, budget talk, car chases, movie tech, and strangers becoming friends, this episode is most definitely for you. Have a nice time!

Episode 30 of One Week Only! Our key film this week is "Miss Stevens," a low-key comedy about a 29-year-old High School teacher chaperoning 3 students at a weekend Drama competition. Lily Rabe is terrific as the quiet, socially-awkward but thoughtful teacher, and her performance won her Best Actress at this year's SXSW Film Festival. Directed & Co-Written by Julia Hart, the film is now in theatres & coming soon to VOD, from The Orchard. For our "Not Yet in Theatres" segment this week, we interview director Paul Taylor about his film "Driftwood," a dialogue-free thriller about a mysterious woman who is rescued and/or kidnapped by an older man for unknown reasons. The film won the Narrative Feature Jury Award at this year's Slamdance Film Festival, and it screens on September 18th at the Arclight Hollywood as part of the Slamdance Cinema Club. Find the complete Slamdance Cinema Club schedule online at www.arclightcinemas.com/news/ArcLight-Presents-Slamdance-Cinema-Club. We also review the fake documentary "Operation Avalanche" about faking the moon landing, by Matt Johnson (The Dirties); the psychological thriller "The Good Neighbor" starring James Caan, by Kasra Farahani; and the stirring ecological documentary "When Two Worlds Collide" about the indigenous people of Peru's fight to preserve the Rainforest, by Heidi Brandenburg & Mathew Orzel. Hosted by Carlos Aguilar & Conor Holt. Music by Kevin MacLeod at www.imcompetech.com

1967: the height of the Cold War, Tte CIA suspects there is a Russian mole inside of NASA, sabotaging the Apollo program. They send two young agents on a mission to go undercover, posing as documentary filmmakers to capture NASA’s race to the moon. The real mission – use their access and technology to hunt down the leak. But what they discover is far more shocking than soviet spies… Their government may be hiding a secret about Apollo that could define the decade, and the White House will stop at nothing to silence anyone who learns it. Operation Avalanche, Director Matt Johnson’s follow-up to the widely-acclaimed The Dirties, is another fake documentary film starring Johnson and collaborator Owen Williams, once again as young would-be filmmakers. This time, though, the DV cameras and school-shooting plot are swapped out for 16mm and the faking of the moon landing. Director Matt Johnson and Producer Matthew Miller join us for a conversation on the inspiration for Operation Avalanche , striking the right tone and the wide variety of reactions of filmgoers to the “conspiracy.” For news and updates go to: operation-avalanche

For nearly half a century people around the world have believed the moon landing was faked. If that were true, how could people possibly perpetrate such a massive hoax?

RECORDED AS POP CULTURE CLUB:  Welcome to an exciting edition of Pop Culture Club, in which I interview two filmmakers whose past and present work I've rather enjoyed quite a bit.  Matt Johnson is a sprightly young Canadian working in mainly a mockumentary framework for both of his wide-eyed tales of potentially misguided ambition. His latest, OPERATION AVALANCHE, is not unlike his first film only this time we are in a different era with similar characters. Recruited by the CIA in 1967, young filmmakers shoot footage of a fake moon landing after learning that NASA is losing the space race to the Russians. I had the tremendous opportunity to talk with Matt about this incredibly entertaining new film.  In addition, I also welcome Joshua Marston to the show, who had a huge hit back in 2004 with MARIA FULL OF GRACE. His latest recruits two of my favorite actors working today, Rachel Weisz and Michael Shannon, in a gradually paced story about identity and building a personal narrative.  COMPLETE UNKNOWN is a bit of a mystery wrapped in a tender story about love past and present. I was honored to learn more about Joshua's process that also made me appreciate the film a little bit more in terms of themes and context.  Stay tuned for some more great episodes of Pop Culture Club to come, including talks with a director whose film changed my life and a musician whose work continues to inspire me!   Check out OPERATION AVALANCHE: http://xyzfilms.com/operation-avalanche/ Check out COMPLETE UNKNOWN: http://www.protagonistpictures.com/films/complete-unknown
