Episode #91 Alan Katz Well that was a blast. Had a great conversation with AL Katz about his journey through Hollywood and beyond. We got into his time writing for iconic shows like Tales from the Crypt, working with legends like Robert Zemeckis and Walter Hill, navigating the wild world of TV and film production, and why he walked away from it all. We also dove into The Donor: A Modern Horror Story, his deeply personal and harrowing true story that blends medical mystery with psychological thriller—an incredible example of real life being stranger (and scarier) than fiction. AL opened up about how the experience changed him and how he turned it into a powerful narrative. Oh, and the Hollywood stories—buckle up. AL shared some truly bizarre, hilarious, and borderline unbelievable encounters with a certain A-list celebrity whose behavior might just redefine “diva.” From strange requests to even stranger habits, you'll have to hear it to believe it. We also talked about "The How NOT To Make A Movie Podcast" which Entertainment Weekly called the first season of the "Best Film Podcast of 2022".. A funny, honest, intense, and eye-opening chat with someone who's lived through the highs, lows, and total WTF moments of the industry. Don't miss this one.

Back to the Future was a tremendous success for Robert Zemeckis, Michael J. Fox, and Christopher Lloyd. (But maybe not Biff, so much) Of course, movie success demands sequels, so a few years later we got more. The trilogy ended in the old west with the third installment which is celebrating 35 years. The BTTF movies have many parallels, so we decided to find a bunch of them and compare the first and third movies.

In this episode- recorded back in the midst of the pandemic- Kieran and I discussed Robert Zemeckis' debut feature film, 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand'. This was a film we both enjoyed but certainly had issues with. So you can expect us to talk about the pros and cons of this film about a bunch of teens in 1964 going to New York to try and see The Beatles perform on The Ed Sullivan Show. We also compare this to other films Zemeckis worked on from 1941 to the Back to the Future trilogy to Forest Gump and beyond!

Several weeks into production of "Back to the Future," screenwriter Bob Gale and director Robert Zemeckis had a huge problem: Eric Stoltz was not giving them the performance their Spielberg backed film desperately needed. Enter budding star Michael J. Fox, the actor they wanted from the beginning. Literally working around the clock, Fox spent his days portraying television's Alex P. Keaton and his nights as time traveling teen Marty McFly. It would quickly become the role of a lifetime. With the beloved classic turning 40, David O'Sullivan joins Dennis - and Nick Malone guests hosts - as our little podcast celebrates its 50th episode. This is heavy. Hosted on Acast.

Get ready to dive into the toon-tastic world of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" from 1988!From the visionary minds of producer Steven Spielberg and director Robert Zemeckis, this Academy Award-winning box office sensation takes us to an alternate 1947 Hollywood where humans and 'Toons' co-exist. Our story follows a jaded human private eye reluctantly tangled in a zany conspiracy, tasked with helping a beloved animated rabbit clear his name after being framed for murder.So, hop on the back of the Red Car, hold on to your disappearing ink, and whatever you do, don't get dipped in The Dip!

 to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 98 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by Brian Tallerico, Managing Editor of RogerEbert.com, to discuss the next film in their Peter Jackson series, The Frighteners (1996). The critical success of Heavenly Creatures proved to put Jackson on the map, with Hollywood calling for him to start making bigger pictures. In writing a treatment in 1992 for an idea that would become The Frighteners, Oscar winning director Robert Zemeckis viewed their idea as a chance to be a spin off to the television series Tales from the Crypt, centering on a small town private eye who can see and speak to the dead. In working with Jackson and Fran Walsh, Zemeckis liked the idea of the young director making the film, and thus became the last film he would make before the biggest project of his life. But is it good, is it successful, or is it a forgotten relic that doesn't make sense within Jackson's filmography. Ryan, Jay, and Brian debate where The Frighteners lands, the importance of Weta Digital, the career of Michael J. Fox, Jackson getting the movie filmed in New Zealand even though it takes place in America, and preview the start of the boys' journey to Middle Earth over the next couple of weeks. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 1h21m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Peter Jackson with a review of his next film, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

Gezien Disney geen echte paasverhalen heeft verfilmd, springen we vooruit naar de mooiste tijd van het jaar. Comedian en tv-maker Lukas Lelie heeft een haast ongezonde passie voor ‘A Christmas Carol' van de Britse schrijver Charles Dickens. (Passie, Matteüspassie, Mattheuseffect: zo wordt het toch de meest logische paasspecial.) Na een zware tegenslag rond kerst vorig jaar, besloot hij te investeren in een eigenaardige collectie: dvd's van verfilmingen van zijn favoriete kerstverhaal. In de verzameling versies van onder meer Barbie, The Flintstones en Doctor Who, allicht het gevolg van het publieke domein. Maar dus ook drie van Disney: ‘A Christmas Carol' (2009) met Jim Carrey als Ebenezer Scrooge, ‘The Muppet Christmas Carol' (1992) met Michael Caine als Scrooge en ‘Mickey's Christmas Carol' (1983) met Scrooge McDuck als… Scrooge. We hebben het over de vergane glorie van motion capture, tijdreizen in de films van Robert Zemeckis en een vreemde bijsluiter in een educatieve Disney-dvd. We weiden uit over Russische rip-offs, een goedkope versie met Kate Winslet en een geniale met Will Ferrell en Ryan Reynolds. We beloven elkaar om elkaars graf te bezoeken, afhankelijk van wie eerst komt te gaan. Lukas getuigt ook over zijn andere verslaving (cola zero), praat over het genie Dikkie Dik en doet twee belangwekkende oproepen. (Let op: de meest bangmakende content in deze afleveringen wordt in de post-credit volwaardig geduid door een expert.)

Send us a textDEATH BECOMES HER (1992)For the second episode in TGTPTU's Season 14 redux series, the film choice was Thomas's. As he explains at the top of the ep, he wanted to do a Streep rewatch with recent co-host Ryan, specifically and especially a comedy. His first choice of Adaptation got nixed as it had previously been covered twice, first during the Cage and then again in the Streep season. So paired with the previous episode's High Plains Driver, this week TGTPTU (re)presents SHE-DEVIL (1986), the laugh-out-loud revenge story featuring Roseanne Barr as— Oh, apologies. We just lost half of our hosts and all of our listeners. Okay, let's try again.  For the second in our Season 14 redux series, the choice is Thomas's and I guess we'll go with DEATH BECOMES HER (1992), originally recorded in 2023 as Season 8, Episode 12. And although during that Streeps of Fire season surprise special guests and Jack recorded an excellent episode in all but audio quality, none of the three current hosts (Ken, Thomas, or Ryan) were on to talk Robert Zemeckis's special effects comedy starring the co-billed Streep, Hawn, and Willis.  So grabs some fresh takes on the film (e.g., Death Becomes Her structured a TV dinner) as Ken beefs with writer David Koepp; Ryan with Zemeckis; Thomas with olds telling youngs how to spend money on food; and Jack with the ghost of Maggie Thatcher. Thomas also puts Jack on blast for not watching films he mentioned going to watch during the original episode's recording while, don't worry, She-Devil receives plenty of mentions throughout. And if that's not enough ep for you ingrates, cohost throughout Season 8 and the voice singing the first three seasons' intro songs, the illustrious and always opinionated Andi drops in briefly to say some unkind words of demotivation to the boys. Stay flaccid, y'all. THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!): Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Unclear and Present Danger

On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John watched Contact, the 1997 science-fiction drama directed by Robert Zemeckis. Based on the book by Carl Sagan, Contact stars Jodie Foster as Dr. Ellie Arroway, a SETI scientist who discovers extraterrestrial life and is eventually chosen to make first contact with the alien life. Foster is joined by a stacked cast of character actors, including Matthew McConaughey, James Woods, Tom Skerritt, William Fichtner, John Hunt, Rob Lowe and Angela Bassett. In their conversation, Jamelle and John discuss the distinctly neoliberal politics of the film as well as the extent to which Contact is a prominent example of the “end of history” utopianism that marked political and cultural life as the 1990s came to a close.You can find Contact to rent or purchase on Amazon or Apple TV.For the next episode of the podcast, Jamelle and John will watch Air Force One, directed by Wolfgang Petersen and starring Harrison Ford as the president who punches. And don't forget the Patreon, where they watch the political and military thrillers of the Cold War and talk about the politics of those decades! On the most recent episode of the Patreon, Jamelle and John watched the 1970 political drama WUSA. You can listen to that and more at patreon.com/unclearpod.Our producer is Connor Lynch and our artwork is by Rachel Eck.

“You couldn't have made this movie three years ago,” said Robert Zemeckis, the director of “Here.”The film stars Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, and is based on a 2014 graphic novel that takes place in a single spot in the world over several centuries. The story mostly takes place in a suburban New Jersey living room. It skips back and forth through time, but focuses on a baby-boomer couple — played by Hanks and Wright — at various stages of their lives, from age 18 into their 80s.Before A.I. software, Zemeckis could have had multiple actors play each character, but the audience might have gotten lost trying to keep track. Conventional makeup could have taken a decade off Hanks, who is now 68, but not half a century. The issue with C.G.I. is time and money. Persuading us that we're watching Hanks and Wright in their 20s would have required hundreds of visual effects artists, tens of millions of dollars and months of postproduction work. A.I. software, though, changed all that accounting. Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.
