EPISODE 195: 2008's Box Office Countdown (10–6) – Iron, Espionage, Penguins, and Robots (ft. Robert Yaniz Jr. & DW Lundberg) Episode Description: The countdown continues! Jason is joined by returning guests Robert Yaniz Jr. and DW Lundberg to tackle the back half of 2008's top-grossing movies—where talking animals, malfunctioning robots, and emotionally exhausted spies battled it out for box office supremacy. This batch has it all: MCU beginnings, Pixar magic, Bond reboot blues, and a certain talking lion who just can't catch a break. Films Discussed: Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (6) – The animals are back and... still trying to get home. Quantum of Solace (7) – Bond is brooding, brutal, and possibly bored. Iron Man (8) – The movie that launched a universe (and Robert Downey Jr. into legend). WALL·E (9) – A near-silent ode to love, loneliness, and environmental collapse. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (10) – Slightly darker, slightly edgier, but did anyone notice? IN THIS EPISODE: Was Quantum of Solace an artistic casualty of the 2008 writers' strike? How Iron Man became a bigger gamble than anyone remembers. Why WALL·E might be Pixar's boldest and most bittersweet gamble. Robert, DW, and Jason try to answer the eternal question: "Who actually watched Prince Caspian?" From Armored Avengers to existential robots, the back half of 2008's top 10 is more influential than you might think.

To kick of 2025 for the Sonic Cinema Podcast, we first return to 1999, and one of the most enjoyable movie surprises from that year. It's time to discuss "Galaxy Quest," and joining me is Robert Yaniz Jr. of Crooked Table podcasts and Back to Bluey to talk about why this comedy continues to endure after 25 years. I hope you enjoy!

EPISODE 188: Robert Yaniz Jr. of Crooked Table makes his TRIUMPHANT RETURN to Binge Movies for an epic ranking of the top 5 highest-grossing films of 2007! Jason and Robert dive into the chaos of Spider-Man 3, the spectacle of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, the letdown of Shrek the Third, the high-octane thrills of Transformers, and the magical wonder of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Which of these blockbuster heavyweights will swing, sail, or transform its way to the top?

In this episode of the OH&S SafetyPod, Robert Yaniz Jr. speaks with Eric Whitley, director of industrial transformation at L2L, about the role of digital communication tools in improving safety, transparency and efficiency in the manufacturing sector. With L2L's recent report What's Holding Manufacturers Back in 2024? as a springboard, we discuss how technology is helping bridge the gap in workforce safety challenges.

Hello readers and listeners! It's time, once again, to dive back into the movie year of 1999, and this is a fun, silly movie to finish off the summer with. The film is Renny Harlin's "Deep Blue Sea", and joining me in discussing it is podcaster Robert Yaniz Jr. of Crooked Table Productions and the Back to Bluey podcast. You even get a brief cameo from my wife, Meredith. I hope you enjoy!

Superhero movies in the 90s were... weird. There might be a couple good ones, but most of them were awful. And that's why we're reviewing one of the worst ones! It's Spawn, from 1997. It's based on the comicbook character by Todd McFarlane, and stars Michael Jai White, John Leguizamo, and Martin Sheen. It's also terrible!

We're halfway through the 50s and you know what that means... It's time for another bonus battle! We've taken two giant monster movies from 1955 and put them head to head to see which comes out on top. We've got a massive tarantula on the loose in 'Tarantula', but maybe the real monsters were the humans who made it along the way, and we've got an angry octopus in 'It Came From Beneath the Sea', but maybe the real villains in that film are the boring human characters. We're joined by fellow movie podcaster Robert Yaniz Jr. from Crooked Table Productions to see which film is better.Join our Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodCheck out Robert Yaniz Jr.!Website: https://www.crookedtable.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/CrookedTable/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crookedtable/Follow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjfdXHxK_rIUsOEoFSx-hGAPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

For our twenty-ninth episode, friend of the show Robert Yaniz Jr. (Crooked Table) joins us for a discussion of John McTiernan's newly-minted 1993 cult classic “Last Action Hero”, as told by McTiernan himself (kinda, you won't hear any clips on this ep). There's so much to delve into, from the director constantly apologizing to what happens when Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Hamlet to everyone's favorite character: cartoon cat police officer Whiskers, and so much more.Ryan's Recommendations: “The Lady Eve” (1941), “Sullivan's Travels” (1941), and “The Palm Beach Story” (1942)For exclusive bonus content and early releases of every episode, join our Patreon and become an Official Minder: http://www.patreon.com/onetrackmindpodcastTheme Music by: Bildschirm (bildschirm.bandcamp.com).

We talk about THE MATRIX's groundbreaking FX, its influence on fashion and fringe groups, and how Lana and Lilly Wachowski's passion for the project helped to define countless moviegoers on a similar journey of self-discovery.

This episode is the continuation of a discussion I began with Robert Yaniz Jr. on his Close Watch podcast about the 2012 epic by the Wachowski sisters and Tom Tykwer, "Cloud Atlas." We focused on the film in that episode; here, we dive into the score by Tykwer, Johnny Klimek and Reinhold Heil. I hope you listen to both of these episodes as a piece to get the full scope of our discussion on a movie I love.Also, the music at the end of this episode is an original composition of mine for concert band called, "Interludes for Winds, Marimba and Timpani." I hope you enjoy!

Tremors is a great movie. It's from 1990, stars Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward, has a bunch of giant worms chasing people, it's really fun. So fun that when we had the option to do an episode on the 3rd movie in the series, we went for it! Was it a mistake? Maybe. We're joined by Crooked Table's Robert Yaniz Jr to check out the sequel that's all about Michael Gross fighting Ass-Blasters.Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodCheck out Robert Yaniz Jr!Website: https://www.crookedtable.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/CrookedTable/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crookedtable/Follow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjfdXHxK_rIUsOEoFSx-hGAPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

​​Crooked Table Productions is back with a brand-new podcast! Franchise Detours -- a whole-new show focused on movie franchises -- is right around the corner. And in this introductory episode, host Robert Yaniz Jr. will lay out the inspiration behind the show, what listeners can expect in the coming months, and tease the first two "mega-series" on the way. We believe no movie series travels in a straight line. Don't believe us? Hop in and hear for yourself, as Franchise Detours hits the road.

What on Earth did we just watch? Was that really the Oscars? Plus Citizen Kane loses its place as the most perfect film of all time, thanks to one bad review unearthed 80 years after it originally published. And a Guardians of the Galaxy holiday special? Say it's not so! Robert Yaniz Jr., from Crooked Table guest hosts for Michael Hinman.

The summer movie season is over, and while it was still pretty strong, it's not the same as it used to be. Something that's not a surprise? Nine of the top 10 biggest movies so far this year are sequels or remakes. And just as many seem to be owned by Disney. So what is this Hollywood monopoly? What will the future of films be like? Crooked Table podcast host Robert Yaniz Jr. joins Michael Hinman to talk all about it.

Michael Hinman welcomes back Robert Yaniz Jr., host of ODYSY's popular The Crooked Table, to talk about the good and the bad (but mostly the bad) of the Oscars. This used to be one of Michael's favorite events, but now it's nothing more than something he'll DVR and then skim through looking for any highlights. Who deserved to win? Who didn't deserve to win? Who should've won? Michael and Robert talk about all that an more.

We guess Paramount Pictures forgot to put out a press release, but in the news that director SJ Clarkson was going to direct the pilot for the new "Game of Thrones" sequel, we all learned something new — "Star Trek 4" has been cancelled.  What does that mean? Michael Hinman turned to the experts to find out — and by experts, he means some great film journalists like Adam Barnard from Screen Fever and Gateworld, as well as Crooked Table host Robert Yaniz Jr.

In Episode 65 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. spends his All Hallow's Eve on a Halloween-timed retrospective of A Nightmare on Elm Street (and its sequels). Wes Craven (RIP) created such an indelible pop cultural icon in Freddy Krueger, and bolstered by Robert Englund and Heather Langenkamp's performances and a killer (pun intended) premise, his 1984 classic lives on as one of the most beloved horror films of all time. But does its reputation still hold true 33 years after audiences first met the Springwood Slasher? And which of his several follow-up appearances reigns supreme. Let's don our razor gloves for a trip backward in time. Down to Elm Street, where a certain infamous horror (anti-)hero awaits. Be sure to stay awake.

In Episode 64 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. gushes about the new trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi and shares his thoughts on Denis Villeneuve's sweeping sci-fi epic Blade Runner 2049. Harrison Ford's shadow is sure to loom large on both films, but will these two sequels live up to the hype?

In Episode 63 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. finally weighs in on some of September 2017's most heavily discussed films, namely the record-breaking Stephen King adaptation IT, the divisive Darren Aronofsky thriller mother! and the outrageous comic book sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle.

In Episode 62 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. and Freddy Yaniz stroll down the dark alleys of Hell's Kitchen for their long-awaited in-depth discussion of Marvel's The Defenders. Which Marvel Netflix show is their favorite one to date, and how does this team-up miniseries build upon the narrative threads and character journeys set forth in Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist? We'll get into all that and so much more, including where we're hoping to see the Netflix branch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe travel next. Synopsis courtesy of Netflix: Marvel's The Defenders follows Daredevil AKA Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and Iron Fist AKA Danny Rand (Finn Jones), a quartet of singular heroes with one common goal – to save New York City. This is the story of four solitary figures, burdened with their own personal challenges, who reluctantly realize they just might be stronger when teamed together. Marvel's The Defenders is produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC Studios for Netflix.  We're excited to hear your feedback as the Crooked Table Podcast continues to evolve.

In Episode 61 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. shares his reaction to the first two episodes of Amazon's new series The Tick, based on the popular comic book. Then he reviews the new Steven Soderbergh heist comedy Logan Lucky, which sees Magic Mike (Channing Tatum) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) recruit James Bond (Daniel Craig) to rob a major NASCAR event. Does this stripped-down Ocean's Eleven riff work as a satisfying caper, or does it feel like a road too often traveled? Let's discuss!

In Episode 60 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. visits the way-back machine to discuss two phenomena of his youth or, more specifically, the year 1987. As cult classic and perennial Halloween favorite The Monster Squad celebrates 30 years since its initial theatrical release, Disney XD launches its much-anticipated reboot of popular animated series DuckTales ("Woo-oo!"). It's as if 1987 is some kind of focal point, connecting the entertainment of the past to the present in some meaningful way.

In Episode 59 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. closes the book on the 2017 summer movie season with some arbitrary awards. The past few months have brought an interesting blend of franchise and original fare, with surprising standouts emerging on both sides. So, as The Dark Tower looms essentially as the last big tentpole of the season, let's review some of the films that had critics and audiences talking since May. With any luck, the rest of 2017 will offer just as much to break down and obsess over as the year to date. Considering that new films from Marvel, DC and Star Wars are among the most anticipated, it's looking likely that 2017 will keep up the momentum it has developed so far.

In Episode 58 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. finally catches up with the critically acclaimed new film from writer/director Christopher Nolan, Dunkirk. The film features an ensemble cast that includes Fionn Whitehead, Tom Hardy, Kenneth Branagh, James D'Arcy, Cillian Murphy, Harry Styles (yes, that Harry Styles) and Mark Rylance. With rich subject matter and his usual flair behind the camera, Nolan could be poised to add another classic to his already impressive resume following hits like Memento, Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight and Inception. But does Dunkirk live up to its pedigree or fail to deliver the experience longtime Nolan fans are expecting? In addition, be sure to check out the brand-new episode of the Cinemaholics podcast to hear Rob's thoughts on the new David Leitch film Atomic Blonde -- starring Charlize Theron and James McAvoy -- and Marvel's The Defenders, the long-awaited Netflix miniseries uniting Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist for the first time.

In Episode 57 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. sifts through mountains of Judd Apatow-produced films to find the very best of the bunch in a new edition of Let's Talk About SIX. From The 40-Year-Old Virgin to Trainwreck, Apatow has directed some of the best comedies of the 2000s, but his producing credits reach even deeper than his directorial efforts. His latest, The Big Sick, is becoming one of the most talked-about films of the year, but does the Michael Showalter film, starring Kumail Nanjiani, Zoe Kazan, Holly Hunter and Ray Romano really live up to all the hype preceding its wide release?

In Episode 56 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. and Freddy Yaniz catch up some popular recent releases, namely writer/director Edgar Wright's pseudo-action musical Baby Driver and Illumination Entertainment's latest Minion-fest Despicable Me 3. Then, it's on to the battle between humans and apes in the trilogy-capping War for the Planet of the Apes. Andy Serkis reprises his lead role as ape leader Caesar -- thanks to the miracle of motion-capture technology -- as the character faces a fearsome new adversary in The Colonel (Woody Harrelson). Of course, this marks the ninth entry in the long-running Planet of the Apes franchise, but director Matt Reeves' film truly marks a conclusion to the storyline that began in 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes and continued in Reeves' own Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. But will this third installment in the rebooted series be its finest hour yet? War for the Planet of the Apes synopsis courtesy of 20th Century Fox: In War for the Planet of the Apes, the third chapter of the critically acclaimed blockbuster franchise, Caesar (Andy Serkis) and his apes are forced into a deadly conflict with an army of humans led by a ruthless Colonel (Woody Harrelson).  After the apes suffer unimaginable losses, Caesar wrestles with his darker instincts and begins his own mythic quest to avenge his kind.  As the journey finally brings them face to face, Caesar and the Colonel are pitted against each other in an epic battle that will determine the fate of both their species and the future of the planet.

In Episode 55 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. welcomes Freddy Yaniz back to the show after a lengthy hiatus to talk (of course) the latest chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Listen in as they talk all things Spider-Man and celebrate the webslinger's full emergence as a central figure in the MCU with Spider-Man: Homecoming. The Jon Watts-directed film -- which sees Tom Holland return to the role of Peter Parker opposite Michael Keaton's The Vulture -- marks the sixth Spider-Man film in 15 years, but is it a return to form for the iconic hero after an extended period of subpar big-screen solo films? Spider-Man Homecoming synopsis courtesy of Sony Pictures: A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming.  Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

It's hard to believe so much news has come out in just the past few days, but fear not, the Crooked Table Podcast is here to break it down for you.

In Episode 52 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. uncovers director Alex Kurtzman's new take on The Mummy, starring Tom Cruise and Sofia Boutella. The film is, of course, intended to kick off Universal's monster-centric Dark Universe. We'll investigate whether The Mummy provides a solid foundation for what's to come as well as how it stacks up against the 1999 edition, which saw Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz bring the classic tale to the modern age. Also: Rob reviews A24's latest, director Trey Edward Shults' It Comes At Night starring Joel Edgerton, and discusses his thoughts on the latest news surrounding X-Men: Dark Phoenix. It's a jam-packed episode of the Crooked Table Podcast. So let's get to it before a certain Egyptian princess catches up with us. We're excited to hear your feedback as the show continues to evolve. As usual, the podcast does feature explicit language and, as such, is best considered NSFW. Synopsis for The Mummy, courtesy of Universal Pictures: Tom Cruise headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures all over the world since the dawn of civilization: The Mummy. Thought safely entombed in a tomb deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient princess (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension. From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters. Cruise is joined by a cast including Annabelle Wallis (upcoming King Arthur, television's Peaky Blinders), Jake Johnson (Jurassic World), Courtney B. Vance (TV's American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson), Marwan Kenzari (The Promise) and Oscar®winner Russell Crowe (Gladiator). The creative team on this action-adventure event is led by director/producer Alex Kurtzman and producer Chris Morgan, who have been instrumental in growing some of the most successful franchises of the past several years—with Kurtzman writing or producing entries in the Transformers, Star Trek and Mission: Impossible series, and Morgan being the narrative engineer of the Fast & Furious saga as it has experienced explosive growth from its third chapter on.  Sean Daniel, who produced the most recent Mummy trilogy, and Sarah Bradshaw (Maleficent) produce alongside Kurtzman and Morgan.

In Episode 51 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. finally reunites on the show with Kai (along with their infant daughter) to discuss director Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman film starring Gal Gadot and Chris Pine. Will the film finally mark a decisive win for the DC Extended Universe after films like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad, or will it prove to be an underwhelming attempt to deliver a successful female-led comic book film?

In Episode 49 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. takes to the high seas for his review of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. But first he looks back at star Johnny Depp's most surprising roles with another round of Let's Talk About SIX. So, is Jack Sparrow better the fifth time around? Listen for yourself. Yo ho, yo ho and all that... Film synopsis, courtesy of Disney: Johnny Depp returns to the big screen as the iconic, swashbuckling anti-hero Jack Sparrow in the all-new “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.” The rip-roaring adventure finds down-on-his-luck Captain Jack feeling the winds of ill-fortune blowing strongly his way when deadly ghost sailors, led by the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil's Triangle bent on killing every pirate at sea—notably Jack. Jack's only hope of survival lies in the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it he must forge an uneasy alliance with Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), a brilliant and beautiful astronomer, and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a headstrong young sailor in the Royal Navy. At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifully small and shabby ship, Captain Jack seeks not only to reverse his recent spate of ill fortune, but to save his very life from the most formidable and malicious foe he has ever faced.

In Episode 47 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. celebrates the big-screen return of Oscar winner Goldie Hawn and the 25th anniversary of her 1992 black comedy Death Becomes Her, directed by Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump, Back to the Future) and co-starring Meryl Streep, Bruce Willis and Isabella Rossellini.  Then, it's on to Hawn's newest release, which teams the actress with Amy Schumer for director Jonathan Levine's (50/50, Warm Bodies) R-rated comedy Snatched.
