There have been a number of big summer movies like "F1: The Movie," "Superman" and "Jurrassic World: Rebirth." But these popcorn movies are not likely destined for big awards.

Jeff Bridges is here, too, but this is about a new program (Ares) that’s about to embark on a dangerous mission. “Roofman” – A robber evades authorities by hanging out in a toy store. Channing Tatum plays the thief, Peter Dinklage and Kirsten Dunst swirl around him. “Anemone” – Daniel Day-Lewis comes out of retirement for this film directed by his son, Ronan. The plot?

The film is a remake of a South Korean effort about two men kidnapping an executive, convinced she’s an alien bent on destroying Earth. “Nouvelle Vague” – Richard Linklater has another entry this year.

In the Dumpster this week: We note the passing of Kelly Clarson's ex Brandon Blackstock at just 48. Please keep his four children in your thoughts. Actress, singer, Prince confidant, and other multi-hyphenate Apollonia (Patricia Apollonia Kotero), at the young age of 66, finds herself embroiled in a legal battle with Prince's estate over her name. Though Apollonia has been going by the moniker professionally since the 1980s, including while starring in Prince's Purple Rain film, and owns several trademarks for it, Paisley Park Enterprises is coming after her in the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board to try to cancel her ownership of her name.  And while the Biebers have managed to avoid entry in the Trashy Divorces Cinematic Universe (by staying married!), we are officially launching "Bieber Watch" after Hailey's strong assertion of the stability of their marriage in May's issue of Vogue. Yeah, we're late to the party - people have been proclaiming the end that marriage since they started dating! Also, Justin Bieber's Instagram shows him recently hanging out with fellow Disney Channel alum Kyle Massey, which caused a bit of an uproar online. Massey stands accused of sending nude pictures to a 13 year old.  Over in Hollywoodland, Leonardo DiCaprio has sat for a rare interview with Esquire Magazine and director Paul Thomas Anderson. In it, he explains that while he has entered his fifth birthday, his emotional age is more like 35. Seems high! Princess Lee Radziwill (and Jackie Kennedy's sister) Lee Radziwill's Upper East Side duplex is on the market - for a mere $17M. At 4,600-square-feet and with views of Central Park and Fifth Avenue, photos reveal a gorgeous home that's certainly out of our price range.  Finally, in Cardi B and Offset news, it seems that Offset may be a bit tweaked that Cardi has moved on with a New England Patriots player - and declared his crush on singer Sabrina Carpenter, though he could not name any of her songs.  Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

Movie of the Year: 1999Three Kings (feat. Best Movie Year Ever author Brian Raftery!)In this episode of Movie of the Year, the Taste Buds dive deep into Three Kings, the 1999 Gulf War satire movie directed by David O. Russell. Set in the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War, the film follows a group of U.S. soldiers—played by George Clooney, Ice Cube, and Mark Wahlberg—as they set out on a gold heist and instead face the moral complexities of war. This Three Kings movie blends action, comedy, and political commentary while paying homage to war films of the past.War and Morality in the 1999 Three Kings MovieWe explore how Three Kings uses the Gulf War setting to comment on U.S. foreign policy, the chaos of post-war Iraq, and the blurred lines between heroism and self-interest. The film is not just a war movie—it's a war satire and a war comedy-drama rolled into one, making it a unique entry in late-90s cinema.David O. Russell's Bold Directing StyleFrom unconventional camera techniques to sharp tonal shifts, Three Kings is a prime example of David O. Russell's fearless filmmaking. We discuss how his approach, both on and off set, shaped the movie's lasting legacy and why it stands apart from other Gulf War movies.Three King's Multicultural Cast Redefines the War GenreWith a diverse lineup that includes Clooney, Wahlberg, and Ice Cube, Three Kings challenges typical casting for war movies. We break down how the characters' backgrounds and performances enhance the story's authenticity and cultural reach.Guest Panelist: Brian RafteryJoining us is Brian Raftery, author of the upcoming book on Hannibal Lecter's cinematic history. Brian also created the acclaimed Ringer mini-series Mission Accomplished, chronicling the making of Three Kings and the tension between David O. Russell and his cast.

Bonus Segment: Magnolia (1999)As a special treat, the Taste Buds also discuss Paul Thomas Anderson's sprawling epic Magnolia, another standout from the cinematic powerhouse year of 1999. They examine how both Magnolia and Three Kings reflect the ambitious, risk-taking spirit of late-90s filmmaking.Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering it for the first time, our Three Kings podcast episode offers fresh insights into one of the boldest war films of the decade. Listen now to hear how this Gulf War satire still resonates today.

Send us a textThe theatrical landscape of 2025 tells a fascinating story through its box office patterns and creative trends. Animation continues its unstoppable theatrical dominance across multiple studios, while long-running franchises like Mission Impossible and Jurassic World show unmistakable signs of fatigue. Has the time come to put these decades-old properties to rest?Our midyear film roundup reveals a striking preference for original storytelling over franchise continuation. From the breathtaking coastal beauty of Paolo Sorrentino's Parthenope to the inventive shark thrills of Dangerous Animals, our top picks demonstrate cinema's continued ability to surprise and captivate. Steven Soderbergh's spy thriller Black Bag showcases masterful craftsmanship, while Tim Robinson's Friendship brings his distinctive comedic sensibilities to feature length with remarkable success.The conversation turns passionate when discussing Ryan Coogler's Sinners and Ari Aster's Eddington – films that blend genres with extraordinary confidence while delivering profound thematic depth. Both represent bold, auteur-driven visions that resonated deeply with audiences seeking thoughtful, challenging cinema.Looking ahead, the remainder of 2025 promises an embarrassment of riches from acclaimed filmmakers including Park Chan-wook, Paul Thomas Anderson, and Jim Jarmusch. Their upcoming works, alongside anticipated releases like Edgar Wright's The Running Man and Blumhouse's Weapons, suggest our year-end lists may undergo significant transformation.What films have captured your imagination in 2025? Join our conversation about this remarkable year in cinema and share your own discoveries and disappointments.

The final season of The Adam Sandler Cinematic Universe continues it's theme of “For Your Consideration…” with an examination of the first Adam Sandler film that made the film critics stand up and take notice of his true potential as an actor Paul Thomas Anderson's “Punch-Drunk Love”Will this deconstruction of a his own filmmaking style that ultimately feels like an Adam Sandler film by way of the arthouse have enough strength within itself to find acceptance in the our Shared Cinematic Universe or will it prove just too much of a product of its creators to fit the constructs of the star charts we've crafted thus far. Whatever the answer, we hope you find a bit of enjoyment in this charmingly off-kilter darkly comedic romance that saw Sandler nominated for his first Golden Globe.Comments can be directed to AdamSandlerCinematicUniverse@gmail.com and don't forget to follow us on Twitter @TheASCU

When your last name is Spielberg, there's naturally a certain legacy, but our guest today is Destry Allyn Spielberg, a talented director and actor who's confidently stepping into her own light, proving her unique voice and vision away from her famous father Steven Spielberg. You might know Destry from her acting roles, including her memorable performance in Paul Thomas Anderson's critically acclaimed "Licorice Pizza," as well as her work in the HBO limited series "I Know This Much Is True." She's also appeared in independent films like "Mass Hysteria." But it's in the director's chair where she's really been making waves. Destry's demonstrated a keen eye for storytelling with her striking short films "Rosie" (which she also acted in) and "Let Me Go the Right Way," which premiered at Tribeca and earned praise for its compelling narrative and performances. And now, she's made her highly anticipated feature directorial debut with the chilling psychological thriller, "Please Don't Feed the Children." This film, written by Paul Bertino, plunges us into a post-apocalyptic world where a deadly virus has targeted adults, leaving a group of orphans searching for safety. The cinematography, handled by Shane Sigler, the cast include Michelle Dockery from "Downton Abbey" in a uniquely villainous role, alongside the brilliant Giancarlo Esposito from "Breaking Bad," and a talented young ensemble including Zoe Colletti, Andrew Liner, Dean Scott Vazquez, Regan Aliyah, Emma Meisel, Joshuah Melnick, and Vernon Davis. Destry Allyn Spielberg is an exciting new voice, building a remarkable body of work that stands on its own merits, while undeniably carrying that incredible filmmaking DNA.

This week, the boys go treasure hunting with John Huston's 1948 masterpiece “The Treasure of the Sierra Madre”. Dave and Jeff hadn't seen it before, John has seen it several times because he's a fancy film school nerd bro, so we grab a few whiskeys and beers and talk about it! We also catch up on the California tax credit news for film and entertainment, John gives some spoiler-free mini-reviews of “28 Years Later” and “F1”, and we fill you in on all the happenings of 1948 to add context to our feature conversation, which may help you understand why the movie was not a financial hit… at first.

This week we're excited to present an archival conversation from the 52nd New York Film Festival in 2014 with Inherent Vice director Paul Thomas Anderson and his very large and talented cast. For one week only from July 4-10, join Film at Lincoln Center in revisiting this great American film on 70mm film, ahead of the director's highly anticipated new feature One Battle After Honor. Get tickets at filmlinc.org/vice This conversation was moderated by Kent Jones, former Director of the New York Film Festival. Paul Thomas Anderson's wild and entrancing Thomas Pynchon adaptation is a cinematic time machine, placing the viewer deep within the world of the paranoid, hazy L.A. dope culture of the early '70s. It's not just the look (which is ineffably right, from the mutton chops and the peasant dresses to the battered screen doors and the neon glow), it's the feel, the rhythm of hanging out, of talking yourself into a state of shivering ecstasy or fear or something in between. Joaquin Phoenix goes all in as Doc Sportello, the private investigator searching for his ex-girlfriend Shasta (Katherine Waterston), menaced at every turn by the telegenic police detective “Bigfoot” Bjornsen (Josh Brolin). Among the other members of Anderson's mind-boggling cast are Reese Witherspoon, Benicio Del Toro, Martin Short, Owen Wilson, and Jena Malone.

We have been anxiously awaiting this season for a long time all because of these last two movies. This P.T.A. film has been on all kinds of "Best" lists since it came out 18 years ago and now that we've seen it, we don't see it going anywhere anytime soon. From its sweeping wide shots to its phenomenal cast we loved this film and loved discussing it even more. Check out where is falls in our rankings and let us know what you think.

“Is ‘Amélie' really a better love story than ‘Road House'? And did Jonah Hill actually make baseball interesting?”In this delightfully unpredictable episode of The Ben and Skin Show, Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina “K-Ray” Ray—dives headfirst into the New York Times' Top 100 Movies of the 21st Century list, and things get hilariously off the rails.From debating the emotional power of Amélie to questioning the realism of Moneyball, the gang brings their signature mix of insight, irreverence, and movie nerd passion. Skin breaks down the brilliance (and frustration) of The Master, KT confesses his confusion over Oldboy, and Ben can't stop laughing at the idea of Road House being the gold standard for romance.Funniest and Most Memorable Moments:“Is Hopper most known for Easy Rider?” “No. Hoosiers.” “No. Speed.” — A perfectly chaotic filmography debate.

In this episode of the show we are moving our Altman conversation to the 90s as we discuss his sprawling epic, some would say a tapestry, Short Cuts. Over the course of our equally sprawling conversation you will hear us talk about Altman emerging from the shadows and reclaiming his position as a critical darling, the many reasons why film critics tend to see Short Cuts as one of the best of its year and maybe even the decade, and whether Altman is evolving in this movie or rather applying his tried-and-true methods once again. We also talk about how many vignettes might be too many, Altman as a heavy influence on Paul Thomas Anderson and whether Short Cuts did indeed require to have so many instances of full frontal nudity to get its point across.

To kick off a new cycle featuring musicians turned actors, Julian, Madeline and Emilio rewatch 'Licorice Pizza', Paul Thomas Anderson's 2021 film and love letter to the San Fernando Valley circa 1973.  Populated with memorable turns from Bradley Cooper, Sean Penn, Tom Waits, Skylar Gisondo, Benny Safdie and others, the film is anchored by the performances of newcomers Cooper Hoffman (son of late great PTA favorite Phillip Seymour Hoffman) and Alana Haim, the youngest of three musician sisters that make up the band HAIM.  The group discusses their own personal histories with HAIM, as well as the band's many collaborations with PTA, who directed several of their music videos,  They then dig into the unusual friendship dynamic between Gary and Alana, discuss several of the reoccurring motifs, praise the film's visual aesthetic, the many great needle drops, and weigh in the film's polarizing final note.

We were admittedly a bit dubious going into this pairing, which was spoken into existence by writer-director Andrew DeYoung invoking THE MASTER when describing his new Tim Robinson/Paul Rudd comedy FRIENDSHIP, but it's not the stretch we thought it would be. In fact, Paul Thomas Anderson's discomfiting psychological drama proves such an interesting lens through which to view FRIENDSHIP's discomfiting absurdist comedy that we move into Connections early, to discuss how each of these two films about lonely men at odds with their own reality bucks convention, not only in terms of narrative and character, but in style and structure as well. Then in Your Next Picture Show we give a glimpse of the episode that could have been if we had chosen the PTA film we went into FRIENDSHIP expecting to be reminded of (and still kind of were): PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE. Please share your thoughts about THE MASTER, FRIENDSHIP, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

This week on the show, we finally begin our newest Deconstructing Directors series. We set our sights on Paul Thomas Anderson and talk about his first film: 1996's Hard Eight. We chat about Anderson's style, the complicated nature of the lead character and also how cool smoking is.  Next week, Deconstructing PTA continues with Boogie Nights Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/doofmedia Follow us on Twitter: @doofmedia See all of our podcasts and more at doofmedia.com!  

Aimee Mann released her third album, Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo, on May 2, 2000. It featured some songs from her soundtrack for Paul Thomas Anderson's "Magnolia" alongside newer tracks and became one of the best reviewed albums of the decade. For our series Silver Liner Notes, writer Carrie Courogen joins us to talk about the album's legacy and take listeners' calls.

We can't say that it would have occurred to us to pair the new Tim Robinson/Paul Rudd comedy FRIENDSHIP with THE MASTER if writer-director Andrew DeYoung hadn't specifically invoked Paul Thomas Anderson's 2012 psychological drama, but the two films do wind up being unexpectedly complementary portraits of relationships between emotionally unstable men. Plus, we're happy to have an excuse to revisit THE MASTER, a slippery film wherein nearly every scene has a claim to being the most important one. So this week we're taking a closer look at a few of those scenes and the multiple interpretations they invite.

The new THUNDERBOLTS* assembles a group of leftovers from various MCU stories to face off against their personal failings in a way that's broadly reminiscent of, yet tonally distinct from, the wannabe superheroes of 1999's MYSTERY MEN. It's also tonally distinct from most recent Marvel projects in a way that we all responded to, even if we differ on whether THUNDERBOLTS* is punching above its power class in the metaphor department. We debate that before bringing MYSTERY MEN back in to explore the various power differentials both between and within these two groups of superheroes with self-esteem issues. And in Your Next Picture Show we entertain another hypothetical “misfit superheroes” pairing that Scott argues has a better claim to the “classic” designation than MYSTERY MEN.  Please share your thoughts about MYSTERY MEN, THUNDERBOLTS*, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

It's a movie-heavy news week! Electric State fails to deliver the charge, we ask, should Marvel be worried that the Russo brothers don't seem to have it? Sure, you heard Apple TV+ has cost the company BILLIONS, but Apple has deep pockets, and we say thank you for the excellent content. Warner Bros announced that the latest movie from Paul Thomas Anderson starring Leonardo DiCaprio and the Bride of Frankenstein movie directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal have been delayed. And finally, Disney announced at a shareholder meeting that Coco 2 is coming.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
