This episode kicks off with a discussion about theatrical releases, social media, Point Break and The Fast and the Furious before your regularly scheduled programming of Movies We've Seen since last time (6:56), TV Talk (44:27), and Entertainment News/Upcoming Trailers and Stuff (1:03:56).  Then Patrick continues to share his gift by absolutely crushing this latest edition of What Year Did That Come Out Again?

We are concluding our season on fantasy movies with a major Peter Jackson fantasy movie.  Instead of focusing on the original Lord of the Rings trilogy, we decided to watch the first part of the Hobbit trilogy with THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY.  Please send any and all feedback to anotherlookpod@gmail.com.  Please follow us on Instagram @anotherlookpod, and rate/review/subscribe where ever you get your podcasts!   Our next season will be a selection of movies from all of our own personal watchlists!

Klemt mellom splatterkaoset i Braindead og Bad Taste og den kommende Ringenes Herre-suksessen finner vi Peter Jacksons herlige 90-tallsmareritt The Frighteners – filmen hvor Michael J. Fox svindler folk med spøkelser mens Jeffrey Combs går fullstendig av hengslene i bakgrunnen. Fox spiller Frank Bannister – en småsvindler som bruker spøkelser til å tjene penger, helt til en mystisk og dødelig skikkelse begynner å herje i byen. Resultatet er en herlig miks av horror, komedie, serial killer-thriller og ren tegnefilmenergi. I denne episoden tar Attack of the Killer Kast turen tilbake til 1996 for å snakke om spøkelser, seriemordere, tidlig CGI-kaos og hvorfor The Frighteners gikk fra kinoflopp til kultklassiker. Vi er også innom Jake Busey, R. Lee Ermey, videobutikk-nostalgi og hvorfor dette føles som en film ingen egentlig hadde fått lov til å lage i dag.

Long movies with short characters.  We must be back in Middle Earth again!  After 8 years, Peter Jackson brought more Tolkien tales to the big screen and another epic trilogy arrived.  These Hobbit adventures were almost as awesome at the previous Lord of the Rings movies, and some of our old familiar characters show up here, but it's all top-notch action and CGI beasts done properly.  Sweeping music, slashing swordplay and a bad-ass, fire-breathing, trash-talkin' dragon make this a thrilling ride!  Let me guide you (and save you about 8 hours of your time) through all the fun and treasures of the Hobbit trilogy with the high quality dorkiness you've come to expect from Missing Real.  Pretty confident, ain't I?  Maybe my dragon name should be "Smug".  

Deze aflevering van Nerd Culture is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/-mWBrDFxai8 Deze week schuiven Daan, Koos en Huey aan voor een bomvolle aflevering van Nerd Culture vol grote fantasy-, sci-fi- en filmfranchise-updates. Koos bespreekt zijn IMAX-ervaring met Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu vanuit Pathé Schouwburgplein Rotterdam, terwijl de heren ook duiken in de toekomst van Middle-earth nu Peter Jackson nóg meer Lord of the Rings-films wil maken, waaronder mogelijk zelfs The Silmarillion. Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu Review Koos is deze week naar Pathé Schouwburgplein in Rotterdam geweest voor de IMAX-vertoning van Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu, de eerste Star Wars-film sinds The Rise of Skywalker. In de podcast bespreekt hij uitgebreid hoe de overstap van Disney+ naar het grote doek uitpakt voor Din Djarin en Grogu. De film voelt duidelijk als een voortzetting van The Mandalorian-serie, met Pedro Pascal opnieuw als Mando en Jon Favreau en Dave Filoni stevig aan het roer van het verhaal. Tegelijkertijd roept de film ook vragen op over de toekomst van Star Wars in de bioscoop: werkt deze meer episodische stijl wel als volwaardige blockbuster? Koos deelt zijn ervaringen met de IMAX-presentatie, de actie, de muziek van Ludwig Göransson en de ontvangst van de film, die wisselende reviews kreeg ondanks sterke reacties op Pascal en de sfeer van de Star Wars-wereld. Peter Jackson wil meer Lord of the Rings films maken Peter Jackson lijkt nog lang niet klaar te zijn met Middle-earth. Terwijl The Hunt for Gollum en Shadow of the Past al in ontwikkeling zijn bij Warner Bros., laat Jackson nu doorschemeren dat hij nóg grotere Tolkien-verhalen naar het witte doek wil brengen. Volgens de regisseur raken de appendices van The Lord of the Rings langzaam uitgeput en wil hij liever aan de slag met “meatier” materiaal zoals The Silmarillion en Unfinished Tales. Dat zou gigantisch nieuws zijn voor Tolkien-fans, want die verhalen bevatten enorme oorlogen, mythologische figuren en de diepste lore van Middle-earth die we tot nu toe nauwelijks in live-action hebben gezien. Opvallend is ook dat de Tolkien Estate sinds het overlijden van Christopher Tolkien veel opener lijkt te staan tegenover nieuwe verfilmingen.

La película "Fjord" se alzó el sábado con la Palma de Oro a la Mejor película al término de la 79ₐ edición del Festival de Cannes. La elegante velada en el Palacio de los Festivales congregó a la crema y nata del cine mundial, con la presencia de artistas como Penélope Cruz, Zoe Saldaña o Geena Davis. El aclamado director rumano Cristián Mungiu alzó el sábado la segunda Palma de Oro de su carrera por "Fjord", un drama sobre las diferencias culturales entre los países de Europa a través de una piadosa pareja rumano-noruega que se instala con su familia en un fiordo. Cuando las maestras de los niños descubren moretones en sus cuerpos, la sociedad comienza a cuestionar las costumbres conservadoras de los padres evangélicos y estalla un álgido debate en medio de la atmosfera glacial nórdica. “Déjenme por favor saborear este momento. Un premio de esta categoría, por segunda vez… Hoy en día es un riesgo elevar la voz frente a los peligros que nos acechan. Hay cosas de las nadie quiere hablar. Las sociedades están fracturadas. Y esta es una película contra el autoritarismo”, dijo Mungiu al recibir la máxima recompensa del festival. Leer también"Siempre soy tu animal materno" de Valentina Maurel: miradas cruzadas en Cannes El director rumano es un invitado recurrente de Cannes, donde ha recibido numerosos premios, principalmente una primera Palma de Oro en 2007 por la extraordinaria “4 meses, 3 semanas, 2 días” sobre una chica que debe recurrir a un aborto clandestino en Rumania. Los españoles Javier Ambrossi y Javier Calvo fueron honrados con el Premio a la Mejor dirección por « La bola negra », junto al polaco Pawel Pawlikowski por su increible "Fatherland", sobre un viaje del escritor Thomas Mann y su hija por Alemania. El jurado decidió entregar su premio a la alemana "La aventura soñada" de Valeska Grisebach, mientras que "Minotauro" del ruso Andrei Zviaguintsev ganó el Gran Premio. Leer también"El ser querido" de Rodrigo Sorogoyen en Cannes: radiografía de un tóxico El Premio al Mejor guion fue para Emmanuel Marre por su cinta "Notre salut", un drama histórico ambientado en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y que había recibido excelentes críticas por parte de la prensa francesa. Para esta película sobre un funcionario colaboracionista con el régimen nazi, Marre se inspiró de la historia de su bisabuelo. El premio a la Mejor interpretación masculina fue entregado a Emmanuel Macchia y Valentin Campagne, protagonistas de "Coward" de Lukas Dhont. De su lado, las actrices belga Virginie Effira y la japonesa Tao Okamoto fueron premiadas por sus respectivos papeles en "All of a sudden" de Ryusuke Hamaguchi. Leer también"Ceniza en la boca" de Diego Luna: migrar, maternar y empezar de nuevo en España La gala de cierre permitió entregar una Palma de oro de honor a Barbra Streissand por el conjunto de su carrera, anunciado por la diva francesa Isabelle Huppert. Streissand sin embargo no pudo estar presente, aunque envió un mensaje donde habló de su pasión por el cine y de su poder para "abrir corazones y mentes". En esta edición del Festival de Cannes se entregaron otros dos reconocimientos similares, a Peter Jackson y John Travolta. El primer premio anunciado durante la velada fue el galardón al Mejor Cortometraje, que fue para el argentino Federico Luis, por su cinta "Para los contrincantes", que cuenta el universo de las peleas de boxeo infantil en el barrio de Tepitos, en Ciudad de México.

Deze aflevering van Nerd Culture is ook te zien op YouTube: https://youtu.be/H5XUa_hrbgk In deze aflevering van Nerd Culture schuiven Koos en Huey weer aan voor een bomvolle show vol films, series, games en popcultuur. We bespreken de toekomst van videogameverfilmingen met opvallende uitspraken van de Devil May Cry-showrunner, duiken in de nieuwe updates rondom Star Wars, Fallout en Ghostbusters, en praten uitgebreid over Peter Jacksons langverwachte terugkeer naar de wereld van Kuifje. Ook komen The Batman II, Ghost in the Shell, Fast & Furious-spin-offs en Netflix’ nieuwe abonnement met reclame voorbij. Daarnaast bespreken we natuurlijk wat we gekeken, gelezen en gespeeld hebben, waaronder The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, The Punisher: One Last Kill en The Adventures of Tintin. Peter Jackson kondigt sequel aan voor Kuifje Na vijftien jaar stilte lijkt er eindelijk weer beweging te zitten in de wereld van Kuifje. Peter Jackson heeft tijdens het filmfestival van Cannes bevestigd dat hij actief werkt aan een vervolg op The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn uit 2011. Volgens Jackson schrijft hij momenteel samen met Fran Walsh aan het script, zelfs vanuit zijn hotelkamer in Cannes. De afspraak met Steven Spielberg was altijd dat Spielberg de eerste film zou regisseren en Jackson de tweede, maar dat project bleef jarenlang hangen in development limbo. Mogelijk wordt de sequel gebaseerd op Prisoners of the Sun, het iconische Inca-verhaal uit de Kuifje-strips, al is dat nog niet bevestigd. Mocht de film daadwerkelijk doorgaan, dan wordt dit Jacksons eerste speelfilm sinds The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies uit 2015. Goedkoper Netflix abonnement in Nederland Netflix gaat vanaf volgend jaar ook in Nederland een goedkoper abonnement met reclame aanbieden. Daarmee volgt de streamingdienst dezelfde strategie als concurrenten als Disney+, HBO Max en Videoland, die inmiddels allemaal goedkopere advertentie-abonnementen hebben geïntroduceerd. In landen als Duitsland en Frankrijk bestaat deze optie al langer, waar kijkers advertenties te zien krijgen voor en tijdens films en series. Opvallend, want jarenlang was juist het volledig reclamevrije model één van Netflix’ grootste verkooppunten. De exacte Nederlandse prijs is nog niet bekend, maar in Duitsland kost het reclame-abonnement momenteel €4,99 tegenover €13,99 voor reclamevrij kijken. De komst van advertenties laat goed zien hoe hard de streamingoorlog veranderd is: groei en winstgevendheid lijken inmiddels belangrijker geworden dan de oorspronkelijke premium ervaring.Wil je adverteren bij de podcast Nerd Culture óf misschien bij een andere podcast van ILVY Network?

Indul a rendes tudósításunk a cannes-i filmfesztiválról, ahol kiderül, hogy melyek azok a filmek, amelyekről a következő egy évben mindenki beszélni fog. Az első nap még laza programmal indult, először A faun labirintusa huszadik évfordulóját ünnepeltük a rendező Guillermo Del Toróval együtt, aki azóta Oscar-díjat is nyert (A víz érintése) és legutóbb a Netflixnek hozott dicsőséget a Frankenstein feldolgozásával, de az egykoron megkérdőjelezhetetlen menőségéből mára sokat veszített.Del Toro egyedi látványvilága és féktelen kreativitása húsz év után is lenyűgözött bennünket és lelkesedése megfelelő indítást adott a 79. cannes-i fesztiválnak. Hozzá hasonló pályát futott be Peter Jackson is, akit a nyitógálán életműdíjjal tüntettek ki, amit A Gyűrűk Ura Frodója, Elijah Wood adott át. Jackson díjazásának apropója nem volt teljesen világos, hiszen az utóbbi időben alig alkotott emlékezteset, bár a cannes-i programigazgató nagy becsben tarthatja a négy évvel ezelőtti Beatles-dokusorozatát, mert annak a címadó dala, a Get Back a gála zenei csúcspontja is volt.A megnyitón felvonult az idei zsűri is, amit ezúttal a koreai mester, Park Chan-wook vezet, akinek a filmjeiből csodás montázst láthattunk, viszont a koreaiul elmondott köszöntőszavait nem sikerült a közönség számára tolmácsolni. Stellan Skarsgard, Ruth Negga és Chloé Zhao mellett a zsűri legismertebb tagja idén Demi Moore, akit két éve Cannes fedezett fel újra A szer főszerepében. A 63 éves színésznő azonban úgy tűnik, nem a megfelelő tanulságokat vonta volna le a zseniális testhorrorból és mintha kezdené túladagolni azt a szert, amitől csontvázszerűvé vált a megjelenése. Amikor ceremónia végén bejelentették, hogy két nő jön megnyitni a fesztivált, azt lehetett remélni, hogy az idei plakáton lévő Geena Davis és Susan Sarandon (a Thelma és Louise volt a zárófilm itt 1991-ben) lesz az, de nem, Gong Li és Jane Fonda teljesen random párosa érkezett a színpadra. Mindenesetre a hihetetlenül energikus, 88 éves Fonda lelkes ordibálása legalább felébresztette az egybegyűlteket.A lanyha megnyitó után kellemes meglepetés volt a francia nyitófilm, a The Electric Kiss, ami elsőre egy könnyed kis meseszerű limonádénak tűnik, ám fokozatosan feltárulnak a mélységei. Egy szerelmi három-, majd négyszög kerül bemutatásra úgy, ahogy eddig még sosem láthattuk, egyenlő fontosságot adva minden karakter nézőpontjának. A főszerepekben Pio Marmaï, Anaïs Demoustier, Gilles Lellouche és Vimala Pons lenyűgöző alakítást nyújtanak. Közülük Lellouche-t pár nap múlva újra láthatjuk majd, Nemes Jeles László versenyfilmjének (Moulin) a főszereplőjeként. Filmek, amikről szó esik az adásban:A faun labirintusa (Guillermo Del Toro)The Electric Kiss (Pierre Salvadori)Készítette: Varga Ferenc és Onozó RóbertZene: Hegyi OlivérJó szórakozást az adáshoz, és ha tetszik, kérlek⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠támogasd a Filmklub podcastot a Patreonon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, egy dollár is nagy segítség!

J.R.R. Tolkien spent decades building a world that was never supposed to save itself easily — and Peter Jackson spent three films reminding us why that matters. This episode, the Nerds crack open The Fellowship of the Ring and try to figure out what makes it still hold up, still hit hard, and still make grown adults emotional about a wizard and some very small men. We dig into Tolkien's original novel, Jackson's 2001 adaptation, the question of what gets lost and gained in translation from page to screen, Tom Bombadil's conspicuous absence, and whether the Shire is the most effective piece of world-building in fantasy history.

The movie world is heating up! Today we're diving into the massive success and "Minus Color" legacy of Godzilla Minus One, breaking down the brand new Street Fighter (2026) trailer starring Andrew Koji and Jason Momoa, and discussing everything we know about Peter Jackson's return in The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum.

Byrd and Kevin welcome back returning guest and author Ray Morton to the show to talk about the newly revised and expanded second edition of his monumental book King Kong: The History of a Movie Icon! Originally published in 2005, the book covered all things Kong up to just before the release of Peter Jackson's remake. More than 20 years later, the great ape is more popular than he's been in decades, thanks to the Monsterverse films and a wave of comics, cartoons, video games, stage plays, and more. Ray has spent years revisiting and updating the book—adding new material, expanding existing chapters, and bringing this definitive guide into the modern era. We dive into what's been added and changed, and what it was like to revisit such a massive project. Along the way, we discuss the recent explosion of Kong content, explore lingering myths about the 1933 film's infamous spider pit scene, attempt to untangle the confusing history of Kong's IP rights, and touch on some unexpected backlash from Ray's first appearance—plus much more. Relax and enjoy the conversation!

This episode tackles two more changes from Peter Jackson's Fellowship of the Ring—Saruman orchestrating the storm on Caradhras, and the missing warg attack in Hollin. We break down how these adaptations simplify Middle-earth, debate whether Saruman's powers go too far, and discuss what's lost when the mountain itself isn't an antagonist. We also examine: Why Jackson condensed multiple threats into “just Saruman and Sauron” The cinematic potential of Gandalf's fiery defense against spirit wargs Aragorn's warnings vs. Saruman's prophecies—and who really drove the Fellowship’s next moves What removing the Hollin warg attack means for Sauron's reach in the story In our extended episode (members at https://theonering.com/members), we dive into: News about Tolkien's rare books and LOTRO's new expansions Listener comments over Boromir's character moments on the slopes of the Misty Mountains The fated 5 seasons of The Rings of Power What's next for the podcast (Children of Húrin, Kullervo, and maybe Lord of the Rings itself)!

In 1993, three eight-year old boys, Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Chris Byers, were murdered; their naked, mutilated bodies found shoved into the mud at the bottom of a ditch. The information developed by investigators pointed to three teenagers as the murderers. The three teens were convicted after two separate trials. One was sentenced to life imprisonment, one was sentenced to life plus forty years, and the third was sentenced to death. The convictions of the three teens became one of the most controversial cases in the State of Arkansas. During the early years of their incarceration, the growth of the Internet connected people all over the world through discussion forums and websites. As a result, the three teens, who became known as the “West Memphis Three,” developed a cult following that included the support of high-profile celebrities, including Johnny Depp, Peter Jackson, and Eddie Vedder and others, who all bought into the myth that the three convicted murderers were innocent.Today, the three convicted murderers are free. They appear to have given up their quest for judicial exoneration. Once they exhausted all other potential “guilty” parties, (some joined their camp and others were obviously not guilty), they focused their attention on Terry Hobbs, step-father of Stevie Branch, in an effort to divert attention from the evidence proving their guilt. Terry Hobbs was never a suspect in the murders and the facts of the case do not support his guilt. Undeterred, the convicted killers and their supporters continue to point fingers at Terry Hobbs.This is Terry Hobbs' story.https://amzn.to/4ui86q1Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Showrunner Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod lead the ambitious seven-season adaptation with each season dedicated to one book, reportedly costing around $100 million per episode, making it potentially the most expensive television production of all time.

The $110M sequel reunites Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day, and Jack Black while adding Donald Glover as Yoshi and Glen Powell as Star Fox in a recently announced surprise crossover cameo.With first reviews seeming to echo the first film's middling critical reception, will its box office performance be as out of this world as expected?Lightning RoundThis morning Amazon MGM released the official trailer for Masters of the Universe, slated for theaters June 5. Stephen Colbert revealed he's co-writing The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past with his son Peter McGee and franchise veteran Philippa Boyens, adapting six early chapters from The Fellowship of the Ring that were omitted from Peter Jackson's 2001 filmHimesh Patel has been cast in writer-director Ryan Coogler‘s revival of the X-Files and will star opposite the previously cast Danielle Deadwyler. Ryan Gosling is set to star in Universal Pictures' untitled event film directed by The Daniels, the Oscar-winning duo behind Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Cameron, Jesse, Derek and Emily are all back together for a packed episode. In RELEVANT Recommends, we highlight Indie Tribe's new album, Who Do You Say I Am? and caught up with the guys at SXSW to talk about the making of the project and what it says about who they are as a group.In RELEVANT Buzz: Alabama's basketball team has been quietly building a faith culture all season that's worth knowing about. Then, as Stephen Colbert is wrapping up the Late Show, his next move is pretty unexpected: writing a Lord of the Rings movie with Peter Jackson. And then we highlight an unexpected connection between SNL's newest cast member and Orlando-based Christian rapper Caleb Gordon. For real.Plus we cover NCAA tournament drama, late night legends ranked, and the high school celebrity alumni rabbit hole (yes, DJ Khaled, Joey Fatone and Wayne Brady went to school together).

And at the end of the show it's One Has to Go: pop icons, board games, classic Comedy Central, sneaker culture and more.
