Cinema Drive Classics presents:Cinema Drive loves the veritable talent that is the versatile Val Kilmer! His passion and powerful performances were evident even in his early years with these cult flicks that started off his career. Join Jason and Ryan as they explore what made these films fun and worth another watch!The Deep Question: What's a movie you'd still enjoy with the sound off?This Week's Features:Real Genius (1985)Top Secret!

Do we need to create more with friends? This week, Joey and Jess talk about consuming, the value cycle, parallel play, time horizons, water-based cooking, and Ciabatta. They don't talk about Real Genius. references Superstar "My grand theory of life is to just hammer the shit out of quadrant 4" 

Dear telefriends! Get ready to transcend this earthly plane, as Paul, Arlo, and Eric encounter a universe of concrete birds, homeo-whores, and techno-techno equipment for the latest Four-Color Flashback. The gang gets high (some of them too high) on Alejandro Jodorowsky and Mœbius' sci-fantasy The Incal, a far-out trip to a new state of being. What starts as a noir riff quickly becomes a galaxy-spanning, head-spinning epic. Topics of discussion include the Lee/Kirby-esque dynamic between Jodo and Mœbius, each page's intricate color design, what an asshole Detective John Difool is, whether or not any of this makes any sense (or if it needs to!), and much more.   NEXT: prepare to enter Val-halla. We begin our series of Val Kilmer double features with two of his first films, 1984's Top Secret! and 1985's Real Genius.     BREAKDOWN 00:00:45  -  Intro / Banter 00:30:12  -  The Incal 01:20:51  -  [Paul got too high] 01:41:08  -  Outro / Next   MUSIC “Because I Got High” by Afroman, Because I Got High (2000) “Too High” by Stevie Wonder, The Sounds of Stevie Wonder (1973)

Let's dive into two of my favorite things that taste great together... trans allegories, and Star Trek! Season two, episode two of Strange New Worlds, "Ad Astra Per Aspera," rocked my world. Because it shouted with its whole chest TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS. So let's get you the context you need if you've never watched a Star Trek, and dive into our main discussion!

Mike and Christian join Val Kilmer who plays a stuttering, hyperactive student genius in this barely remembered 80's comedy

Jon D. takes on ketchup conspiracies (seriously — check the Pantone match), why Andor might just be the best Star Wars content ever created. Plus listener giveaways, and more. It's part stand-up, part soapbox, and full of Jon D. style.

Real Genius follows 15-year-old science prodigy Mitch Taylor, played by Gabriel Jarret, who's recruited to a prestigious tech university to work on a secret project. He's partnered with the school's legendary slacker-genius Chris Knight, played by Val Kilmer — a guy who's more interested in pranks and pool parties than lab experiments.But things aren't what they seem. Mitch and Chris soon realize that their laser research is being secretly used by the military to create a precision assassination weapon. The fun and games turn into a mission to stop their invention from being weaponized — and they do it in the most over-the-top and delicious way possible. And yes, we're talking about a house filled with popcorn.It's part college comedy, part Cold War commentary, and part anti-establishment geek rebellion — all wrapped up in classic 80s flavor.If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.

In this episode, we review "Real Genius" (1985), the 2nd feature film in the long career of Val Kilmer (b. 1959, d. 2025). Recorded on 22 June 2024, this is a "time capsule" episode. - Which Geek was the most excited about reviewing this movie? - Which Geek was the most...confounded(?)...by the movie? - Which science classes did the Geeks take in college? Which Geek(s) took only one science for general requirements, and which Geek(s) almost added a minor in a science? - Which Geek had to rent this movie twice? - Which hyperbolic phrase did one Geek resurrect to describe this movie? - What commentary did the Geeks have about higher education, 1980s history, 1980s technology, dumb people, smart people, the TV show "Big Bang Theory," social intelligence, political correctness, ethics, and holding the door open for other people? - Which character in the movie led to a discussion about possible autism in fictional characters vs. quirkiness or eccentricities written into character personalities? - Which Geek immediately dropped a philosophy class in college when the professor openly (and probably unethically & illegally) claimed that religious students would almost certainly fail the class? - And, how did discussion about this movie lead to mentions of "Animal House," "Revenge of the Nerd," and "PCU"?Listen now for the answers to these and other academic questions as we study..."Real Genius."E-Mail: discerninggeeks@gmail.comPlease rate or review us wherever you listen to podcasts.

Episode 59 - This time on the show, Chris' basement is in a state of flux, the guys discuss the challenges of creative productivity, Chris is still an Apple fanboy, Coury is taking his kids to see Weird Al, Chris still hasn't watched "Real Genius" but Coury watched "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", someone who clearly has some issues accused Chris of being a thief, Coury's family got screwed on their taxes, and apparently "elderly proms" are a thing.   Send in a question to heresmypodcast@gmail.com #heresmypodcast #HMQFY

     This week- two films about dreamers being betrayed by trusted individuals working for the government.     In 1968, William O'Neal is arrested for attempting to steal a car while posing as a federal agent. While in custody he is approached by the FBI who make an offer he can't refuse- the charges will disappear if he infiltrates the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party and relays information on its leader, Fred Hampton. Based on a true story, the second feature from Shaka King, Judas and the Black Messiah.    The CIA has secretly hires Professor Hathaway to make a laser weapon precise enough to carry out illegal political assassinations from outer space. Hathaway recruits a team of brilliant students to do the work for him as he redirects project funds to build a massive new house. As the deadline looms he recruits a budding genius in physics, Mitch, and places him under one of his heroes, Chris Knight, now a disillusioned slacker just trying to survive his final year. A 1980s comedy classic and one of the best college films of that century- Real Genius.     All that and Dave pregames with the game, Tyler rides the movies like a pro, and Kevin plans a march of the squirrel army. Join us, won't you?   Episode 413- Knight Betrayal

Real Genius was Val Kilmer's second big screen appearance. His first, Top Secret!, we also covered on this podcast. Like that one, Real Genius is a tremendous showcase for his immense acting talents. This is a truly great 80s comedy, propelled by the infinite charisma of Kilmer as brilliant slacker Chris Knight. It doesn't hurt that William Atherton plays his despicable foil Professor Jerry Hathaway. Atherton just excels at playing an asshole. Thus, as Knight relishes in making a fool of him, the audience can't help but laugh. Alas, Real Genius is on this pod for a reason. Despite being a cult classic now, it fared poorly upon its release, grossing $13 million on a budget of $8 million. Thankfully, people smartened up, cementing its rewatchable status over the years.  Now, sit back, get inspired with a Space Food from Warped Wing Brewing Co., and fill out those entries for the Frito-Lay sweepstakes! The Thunderous Wizard, Chumpzilla, and Bling Blake are unwittingly building murder lasers for the government! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – When he gets mad, he doesn't get even... he gets creative! Lingering Questions – Best Chris Knight one-liner? (24:42) The "Long Series of Distractions" Trivia Challenge – Bling Blake challenges the field to trivia about the movie.

We pair this science-fueled cult classic with some booze-worthy brews and dive into the chaotic brilliance of laser-building college kids, over-the-top 80s tech, and Val Kilmer in full smartass mode. From genius-level pranks to military-grade mischief, this one has everything — including a popcorn explosion you'll never forget.

In Episode 409 of Friends Talking Nerdy, hosts Professor Aubrey and Tim the Nerd dive deep into a heartfelt and wide-ranging discussion that spans Hollywood, professional wrestling, and British sci-fi.The episode opens with a tribute to the legendary actor Val Kilmer, who recently passed away. Professor Aubrey and Tim the Nerd reflect on Kilmer's diverse and iconic filmography, sharing personal stories and thoughts on his most memorable performances. From the enigmatic Jim Morrison in The Doors to the cool intellect of Real Genius, the hosts explore Kilmer's range and charisma. They praise his unforgettable turn as Doc Holliday in Tombstone, his magical role in Willow, and even delve into the controversy and stylistic flair of Batman Forever. The discussion takes a thought-provoking turn as they examine The Chaos Experiment, a lesser-known film with eerie relevance to today's U.S. political climate, underscoring Kilmer's later-career choices and the unexpected legacy some of his work may leave. Naturally, no conversation about Kilmer would be complete without mentioning Top Gun, a film that helped define an era and cemented Kilmer's place in pop culture history.Next, Tim the Nerd switches gears to the squared circle as he offers his insights into the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame inductees. He celebrates the long-overdue induction of Triple H, reflecting on his in-ring legacy and behind-the-scenes influence. Tim also discusses Michelle McCool's contributions to the women's division, the undeniable charisma and strength of Lex Luger, and the tag-team chaos brought by The Natural Disasters—Earthquake and Typhoon. A special segment is devoted to the induction of one of wrestling's most iconic moments: Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13—an induction not of a person, but of a legendary match that defined the Attitude Era. Tim explores how this match's storytelling and in-ring psychology continue to influence professional wrestling to this day.Finally, the episode wraps up with Tim sharing his initial reactions to the new season of Doctor Who on Disney+. Despite high hopes, he expresses disappointment, critiquing a perceived disconnect between the show's creative intentions and what actually makes it to screen. Tim explores how Doctor Who's new direction may be missing the emotional and narrative impact longtime fans expect, offering a thoughtful take on what's working and what's falling short.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.

With the recent passing of Val Kilmer, Jeff reviews one of his early movies. Also goes off on a side tangent about Batman. :)

Send us a textThis scientific romp was part of the ultimate trio released in August 1985. Real Genius, Weird Science, and My Science Project were released within one week of each other and just one month after Back to the Future. With Martha Coolidge at the helm, this movie spared the usual sophomoric fare we all love the '80s for. I love those sentence-ending prepositions. I ain't know much, but I know what I like. And I likes me some Val Kilmer. With no pandering to the usual bully/nerd tropes, this movie was rewritten and executed in a way that reveres the nerds and underdogs, full stop. 

Movie spoilers abound! Welcome to our Phsysics Phoundations Course! Today we're discussing a truly phoundational text: Real Genius starring Val Kilmer. First, let's all take a step back… Because little did we know just how influential this movie was going to be to the works of Psych. The humor, the character of Chris Knight, and the silly references strike a real Psych chord. We follow a bunch of teen geniuses during their time in college building a laser. But a nefarious plot may be a-brewing!

Val Kilmer was an actor's actor. The rare sort of movie star whose focus was always on creating the best performance possible. Even when not the leading man, he through himself into every role, always elevating what had been written on the page into something special. Over the course of an impressive 30 year career, Val was shaped by the Hollywood machine into a bonafied movie star. From lighter fair like Top Secret and Real Genius to performances in Tombstone, The Doors, Willow, Heat and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang... Val proved there was no genre he couldn't master. No character he couldn't make memorable and, perhaps most impressive, wholly his own. His contributions to the film industry are as vast as they are undeniable. Val Kilmer passed away from pneumonia on April 1, 2025 at the age of just 65. For this tribute episode, we discuss 12 of what we consider to be his most important films. ----------------------------------------Retro Ridoctopus is:• Parasite Steve (read)• 8-Bit Alchemy (listen) • Coopster Gold (join) • Nintenjoe (subscribe)----------------------------------------All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile

The category for May is Val Kilmer's filmography! Allan picks the first one and it's definitely a popcorn flick! REAL GENIUS (1985) Directed by Martha Coolidge

2024's Road House is surprisingly watchable, even if it pales in comparison to the original. Jake Gyllenhaal does a serviceable job as Elwood Dalton—the bouncer with a penchant for violence but a heart of gold. And the general premise of a man who busts up bar fights for a living is still wildly entertaining. Where this one stumbles is the odd use of CGI to make the fights appear more "brutal." It's often distracting and offputting. Not distracting enough, though, to make you forget how bland and boring Billy Magnussen's villainous Brandt is. He lacks any semblance of the sleaze Ben Gazzara brought as Brad Wesley. Honestly, and it is baffling to type this, the movie is kind of saved by the ludicrous performance of Conor McGregor. He may be high as hell on blow, but he definitely understands the assignment. Now, sit back, get belligerent with an Orange Blossom Pilsner2 from Orange Blossom Brewing Co., and take it outside!

Actor Val Kilmer died on April 1st of this year, after a long battle with throat cancer. He was 65. Kilmer's film career began in the 1980s with iconic turns in the likes of Top Gun and Real Genius, but it was in the 1990s where be became an icon in a decade known primarily one dominated by iconoclasts, starting with his portrayal of Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's The Doors, and including memorable bit roles in movies like True Romance, replacing Michael Keaton as Batman in Batman Forever, and what man consider his greatest role as Doc Holiday opposite Kurt Russell's Wyatt Earp in Tombstone. Kilmer was an avid documentarian of his own life and was rarely without his camcorder. His own video tapes were repurposed to tell the story of his life and career in the moving and insightful documentary Val, directed by Ting Poo and Leo Scott, which captures a man who seems to know his time is almost up reflecting on the lessons of a life extraordinarily lived. That film formed the basis of this conversation between John and Julia discussing the strange life and career of this remarkable actor.

Three incredible artistic talents came together at the beginning of the millennium to create an astounding work of art: Tom Cruise, John Woo, and Limp Bizkit... together they produced MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 2 and we thank them every goddamn day of our lives.We're back to discuss M: I 2 with connoisseur of early 2000s cinema/vibes Katherine Vienneau. We've got the Chimera Virus, we've got Thandiwe Newton, we've got Dougray Scott oh my god we've got Dougray Scott. We've got masks galore, we've got sexual Tom Cruise having sexual sex, we've got at least a little bit of that classic John Woo doves and slo-mo and heroic bloodshed. We also pay our respects to Val Kilmer, Rest in Peace, and our disrespects to former friend of the show Paul Schrader, Rest in Piss. We talk about a very special Buckcherry appearance at Woodstock '99, and also recount our favourite Val Kilmer movies (TOP SECRET!, THE DOORS, THE SALTON SEA, and REAL GENIUS). Alex also tells us about the latest British comedy THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND which, unfortunately, sets up Ben to do sevearl Carey Mulligan impressions.Join us next week for MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III (Roman numerals this time, nice)Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com

Val Kilmer was a movie superstar for nearly four decades, Starting with movies like "Real Genius" and ending with an emotional send off in "Top Gun: Maverick" Val Kilmer was a one of a kind movie star for Gen X. Sickness cut his career, and life short, but his hall of fame filmography has made Val Kilmer immortal.Join Ty and RD as the remember the movies of the late great Val Kilmer.Download the episode for free.

Unfortunately, Dave can't make it this week (we miss you), but we (Evan and Megan) carry on in his stead. First we cover Michael Angarano's dramedy SACREMENTO (2:14), where a free-spirited guy (Angarano) cons his anxiety-ridden best friend (Michael Cera) into taking a road trip to, you guessed it, Sacramento. The movie, which co-stars the vastly underused Maya Erskine and Kristen Stewart, has the occasional poignant moment or funny line but is too scattershot for our taste. Next, we review Christopher Landon's thriller DROP (23:02), which stars Meghann Fahy as a widowed, domestic abuse survivor and mother who is terrorized by anonymous threatening messages on her first date in years. We really dig its central mystery, lead performance, intense atmosphere, and sharp commentary on abuse. And in this week's Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about Martha Coolidge's 1985 comedy REAL GENIUS in honor of the late Val Kilmer!

Val Kilmer was one of the most eclectic and enthralling actors of his generation and one of the movies that heavily showcased this is this week's movie, “The Salton Sea.” Kilmer showed he could be wacky, like in “Top Secret!” and “Real Genius” or deadly serious like in “Spartan” and “The Doors.” In “The Salton Sea” he sort of combines those two and it makes for an entertaining and captivating performance. If you want a movie that leads you down one path, en route to setting an expectation, just to subvert it, and does it multiple times, “The Salton Sea” just might be for you. Kilmer plays Danny Parker, a trumpet player, who has a faithful marriage to a beautiful wife until that all comes to an end. Afterwards, his life becomes a drug-filled downward spiral as he joins the perpetual night party of the tweaker to cope, or is that why he's really doing it? We don't know. He's also a confidential informant for a couple of L.A. detectives who want him to set up a maniacally, murderous drug dealer named Pooh Bear. This is a drug dealer known for killing people suddenly just because he doesn't like the tone of their voice. Also, Danny is told that he's been marked for death for something he didn't do, so things went from beautiful and romantic to pitiful and manic really quick. Is Danny Parker for real, or is he someone else? Will he survive the vortex of violence he finds himself in? Is it worth finding out in this lesser known Val Kilmer movie? Check out my spoiler-free review on this episode to find out! “The Salton Sea” also stars Vincent D'Onofrio, Adam Goldberg, Luiz Guzman, Doug Hutchison, Anthony LaPaglia, Glenn Plummer, Peter Sarsgaard, Deborah Kara Unger, Chandra West, BD Wong, R. Lee Ermey, Shalom Harlow, Sherry Knight, Meat Loaf, Azura Skye, Josh Todd and Danny Trejo.     Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

In this episode, we pay our respects to the legendary actor Val Kilmer. Jason's favorite actor has always been Val Kilmer, thanks to his all-time favorite movie: Real Genius. To honor Kilmer and his legacy, we dive into conversations about his impact on film and on us personally. “Best Friend of the Show,” Rob, joins Jason first to discuss many of Kilmer's iconic performances. Jason also chats with writer Stephanie Streisand (The Mighty Ones, The Detour), a friend of the show, about their shared love for Real Genius, Top Secret!, and how Kilmer's performances influenced her comedy. We end the episode with “Brother of the Show,” Trey. It's a heartwarming and fun tribute we hope all Val Kilmer fans find some comfort in.

Welcome back to the Video Store Podcast! Our little store recently celebrated two separate milestones! Not only does March mark the one year anniversary of our fun little podcast, but this just so happens to be the 50th episode of the show, which means I (Rob "Flack" O'Hara), Ashley Thomas, and The Retroist have officially recommended 200 films for your viewing enjoyment. U hope you returned them all on time.For this week's show I had planned to do something that coincided with our show's anniversary… and right as I was walking the store's aisles looking for movies to recommend I learned of the untimely passing of Val Kilmer, which convinced me to change course. Kilmer will be remembered as one of the great actors of our time. From Batman to Willow, Kilmer was woven into the 80s and 90s. The hardest part about this week's show was narrowing my selections down to only four. Top Gun (1986)Ride into the danger zone with this classic from the 1980s starring Tom Cruise as Maverick, Kelly McGillis as Charlie, and Val Kilmer as the one and only Ice Man. When I was a teen I didn't know anyone who hadn't seen this film and yet today it seems many younger film fans skipped it. Featuring an all-star cast and a soundtrack full of hits that will “take your breath away,” Top Gun is a classic that remains watchable and relevant today. Real Genius (1985)In Real Genius, a group of brilliant college students are brought together to work on a project that someone may or may not have nefarious plans for. Val Kilmer is Chris Knight, a loveable, quirky genius who takes a fifteen-year-old genius named Mitch under his wings. Will the geniuses have what it takes to complete their project — and if they do, will they also be able to stop it? Real Genius remains one of my favorite 80s comedies of all time. A guy's gotta have his standards.Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)In this old-school pulp detective story dragged into the 20th century, a thief (Robert Downey, Jr.) and a private detective (Kilmer) work together to solve a murder — and then more murders… and then try to avoid getting murdered. This is a fantastic film, dripping with style and unexpected twists and turns. Sit back, relax, and try not to lose the plot… or a finger.Tombstone (1993)No tribute to Val Kilmer would be complete without this film, featuring his iconic performance as Doc Holiday, Wyatt Earp's loyal friend. Also starring Kurt Russell, Sam Elliott, and several others, Kilmer's performance in Tombstone will never let you forget who's your Huckleberry.Rest in peace, Mr. Kilmer. If you haven't seen any of these in a while (or at all) feel free to check one (or all) of them out — just don't forget to rewind your tapes and have them back on time to avoid late fees.Thanks for visiting our store over the past year.

Memphis was told last week that the rainfall throughout the weekend would cause "generational flooding" in the Mid-South. We are now on the other side and we assess the damage and aftermath, how our listeners experienced it, and why many Memphians are upset at one local meteorologist. Also on the show, we break down the national "Hands Off" protests against President Trump, we react to a once-extinct species being brought back after thousands of years, and Rivera gives us his Gen Z movie review of Real Genius (1985).

Val Kilmer dead at 65 , Tommy Chong (alive at 86) joins us before Hash Bash, Detroit Tigers broadcaster Andy Dirks preps us for Opening Day, Cory Booker's vanity record, Elon Musk leaving Doge, and Blake Lively still can't win. Joe DePugh, the high school pitcher who threw "speedballs" and inspired Bruce Springsteen's ‘Glory Days,' dies at 75. RIP Val Kilmer. Gone too soon at 65.  We remember some of his classic roles in The Doors, Tombstone, Real Genius, Batman, Willow, At First Sight, Top Gun, and MacGruber.  The documentary Val is available on Amazon Prime and well worth your time. Val Kilmer had quite the team photo of woman. Corey Booker's new record is stupid and pointless. Virginia Guiffrey Roberts is down to one day left to live. She was in court 10 days ago for breaching a restraining order. Do most citizens in Canada own a firearm? Drew has a lot of Canadian gun questions. Netflix has a new documentary on the Gilgo Beach killer called "Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer. Some people are saying it focuses too much on the victim's families. The murders might have been solved faster if it wasn't for the ex-Suffolk County DA and the ex-police chief. Are there any non-criminal reasons someone would need a burner phone or military style body armor? Tommy Chong joins us as he prepares to come to town for Astronomicon. Tommy tells us stories of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, his erratic podcasting schedule, surviving the soCal wildfires, the passing of Val Kilmer, Cheech & Chong's Last Movie, the Ann Arbor Hash Bash and more. Detroit Tigers TV color commentator Andy Dirks joins us before the Tigers home opener this Friday. Elon Musk might be stepping down from Doge. Morgan Wallen was very grumpy behind the scenes at Saturday Night Live. He's now capitalizing on the moment by selling merch. Blake Lively seemingly pulled a Justin Baldoni on an earlier film. She also had a PR stunt at her friend's donut shop that hilariously backfired.
