Aside from the obvious visual DELIGHTS (warning: lots of breasts, penis, butt, and pregnancy talk/jokes), is this a return to prestige engrossing filmmaking from Howard or is “Eden” setting itself up to run afoul of potential multiple Razzie nominations (yes, at least one host thinks this is absolute dreck)?    FIND PARADISE WITH OUR NEW EPISODE!Stick around for the PLUS:  Mike reviews “Night of the Zoopocalypse”, an animated film based on a short story by….wait for it…..CLIVE BARKER (think “Zootopia” meets Alien meets “Paranorman”); Jose takes on the new horror comedy “Clown in a Cornfield” from the director of “Tucker & Dale vs. Evil”. TIMESTAMPS00:00 Teaser01:15 Intro05:56 Eden: Below the Line / Production17:35 Eden: Above the Line / Cast26:31 Background / Spoiler Free Thoughts49:40 SPOILERS ahead01:07:30 Mike's Plus01:12:30 Jose's Plus01:18:37 Outro- - - - - - - - - -WE ARE WATCH SKIP PLUS! FOLLOW/LIKE/SUBSCRIBE/REVIEW/LOVEEmail us: WatchSkipPlus@gmail.com#eden #ronhoward #judelaw #anadearmas #vanessakirby #danielbruhl #sydneysweeney #felixkammerer #tobywallace #richardroxburgh #noahpink #mathiasherndl #hanszimmer #briangrazer #AGCstudios #imagineentertainment #fortecorppictures #medanpictures #nightofthezoopocalypse #ricardocurtis #rodrigoperezcastro #clivebarker #davidharbour #clowninacornfield #elicraig #katiedouglas #aaronabrams #carsonmaccormac #willsasso #kevindurand #vincentmuller

For the first time in a long time, Gobbledygeek dips its beak back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. They've done so for a very special film: Jake Schreier's Thunderbolts*, a return to the MCU's past glories with a tale of outcasts looking for something to believe in. Yelena Belova, the Winter Soldier, U.S. Agent, Red Guardian, Ghost, and Taskmaster come together to form a new kind of Avengers team; one formed under the auspices of none other than Elaine Benes. Paul, Arlo, and Eric–our own band of lovable misfits–discuss Florence Pugh's killer performance, the lovable David Harbour, what Thunderbolts* does differently than most recent MCU films, and much, much more.   NEXT: we enter VAL-halla for a second Val Kilmer double feature.

EP #201: 2009, Part II — Conspiracy Season 2009 didn't just entertain—it reflected a culture already steeped in paranoia and conspiratorial thinking. Jason and Chauncey Telese (La Podfidential) rank five box office giants that, in hindsight, reveal how stories of secret cabals, engineered crises, and “truth” shaped by vibes over facts were already dominating the mainstream. The Lineup: 10. The Hangover (2009) 9. Angels & Demons (2009) 8. Sherlock Holmes (2009) 7. The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) 6. Up (2009) What seemed like harmless fun at the time now reads as a cultural preview of the conspiratorial mindset that would escalate throughout the next decade. The conversation also touches on the death of Hulk Hogan, the paranoia baked into Dan Brown's novels, Ron Howard's attempt to give pulp a prestige sheen, and Peter Thiel, who secretly bankrolled Hogan's lawsuit against Gawker, a real-world conspiracy that toppled a media empire. Which film deserves preservation in the Vault, and which one feels like prophecy for America's conspiratorial future?

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #222, de podcast waarin we weer helemaal losgaan op het laatste nieuws uit films, series en games. Deze week praten we uitgebreid over de nieuwe Disney+ show Alien: Earth, checken we de trailers van Splinter Cell: Deathwatch en Fallout seizoen 2, en duiken we in Variety's verhaal over Disney dat wanhopig op zoek is naar originele IP's om Gen Z terug te winnen.Alien: Earth ReviewDisney+ probeert iets groots met Alien: Earth: de legendarische xenomorphs landen voor het eerst écht op onze planeet. Het resultaat is een mix van sci-fi, horror en pure spanning die duidelijk wil voortbouwen op Ridley Scotts erfenis. Maar werkt dat ook in serieformaat? In de podcast duiken we erin. Koos heeft de show gezien en neemt je mee door de eerste afleveringen. Hoe pakt Disney+ de sfeer van de klassieke films aan? Is de cast overtuigend genoeg? En vooral: voelt het nog steeds als die beklemmende Alien-ervaring waar de franchise om bekendstaat? Is dit de frisse start die fans hopen, of gewoon weer een extra titel in een reeks die zijn magie langzaam kwijtraakt?Marvel en Star Wars verliezen kracht, Disney op zoek naar nieuwe 'jongens' IP Disney mag dan jarenlang leunen op Marvel en Lucasfilm, maar zelfs deze kaskrakers weten Gen Z niet meer vanzelf naar de bioscoop te trekken. Variety meldt dat het bedrijf actief op zoek is naar nieuwe originele films die specifiek jonge mannen van 13 tot 28 jaar moeten aanspreken. Volgens insiders vraagt de top van Walt Disney Studios schrijvers en producers om frisse pitches met meer avontuurlijke thema's, wereldwijde schattenjachten en seizoensgebonden blockbusters, bijvoorbeeld rond Halloween. Dit alles omdat het publiek steeds minder warm loopt voor superheldenfilms en Star Wars maar geen grote bioscoophit meer weet te leveren.Is de focus op nieuwe IP's een slimme zet, of had men beter kunnen blijven investeren in bestaande franchises? Eén ding is zeker: Disney wil koste wat kost relevant blijven bij Gen Z.Nicolas Cage in gesprek voor True DetectiveNicolas Cage lijkt klaar voor een opvallende stap: volgens Deadline is hij in gesprek om de hoofdrol te spelen in seizoen 5 van HBO's True Detective. Daarmee zou de Oscarwinnaar in de huid kruipen van Henry Logan, een rechercheur in New York die centraal staat in de nieuwe zaak. Showrunner Issa Lopez, die eerder Night Country maakte, keert terug en belooft opnieuw een duistere, krachtige vertelling – ditmaal met Jamaica Bay als decor.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of August 22, 2025. The highest-grossing animated film of all time, "Ne Zha II," comes to local theaters from China and is dubbed into English for the first time.  It's epic and looks great, but patience is required. If you want to see beautiful people roughing it, "Eden" from director Ron Howard may be more your thing. Of local interest, "The Streak" is a must-watch for sports fans as this new documentary in theaters explores the 1987 Salt Lake Trappers and their historic 29-game winning streak 38 years ago.  And finally, a young adult romance movie on streaming for Gen Z called "The Map That Leads To You" is a gorgeously shot movie about star-crossed lovers on Amazon Prime Video. The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy, with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

The conversation also dives into Ron’s deep love for basketball and his long-standing fandom for the Lakers, as well as his thoughts on what has changed—and stayed the same—about Hollywood over the decades.

It's Popzara's Movie Time! Podcast, where our in-house movie nerds Ethan Brehm and Nate Evans take you on an unscripted journey yakking and chatting about some of their favorite movie moments and cinematic scenes, from past and present, presented without snark and snobbery for your listening pleasure. For this extra-special episode the guys take a look back at 1973's American Graffiti, George Lucas' cinematic love letter to a bygone era that would redefine the word nostalgia and would become one of the most beloved films of all-time. Its impact on the culture would be profound, influencing everything from cars, music, fashion, and politics, and would introduce iconic talent that would dominate Hollywood for generations, especially writer/director George Lucas, Ron Howard, and Harrison Ford. Among the most successful efforts of the ‘New Hollywood' era, our hosts discuss the meaning of nostalgia itself, the surprising similarities between it and Lucas' followup, Star Wars, perhaps the greatest soundtrack in film history, and why capturing the liminal space between yesterday and today continues to be so elusive. More than anything, they discuss how American Graffiti (and films like it) prove that good storytelling can make us care about the troubles and concerns of another generation, about the universality of being human, and why the things that mattered can still matter long after the lights have gone off and memories are all that remain.

On this week's episode, I'm joined by New York Magazine's Bilge Ebiri, who has an enormous, career-spanning interview with Ron Howard in the latest issue. We discussed what makes a Ron Howard movie a “Ron Howard Movie,” the incredibly under-appreciated Thirteen Lives, and that movie about J.D. Vance. And then we talked a bit about his fascinating history of a key element of film technology in the latest issues of Mubi's quarterly film journal, Notebook. Why is 24 frames per second the accepted frame rate? And why does our eye revolt when the image, paradoxically, gets closer to “reality”? If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with a friend!
