Pull up a seat and ditch your bibs behind as co-hosts Dino and Mike rewind back to the era of big hair and analog enjoyment in I Eat Movies #27: Table Scraps - 1980s. Joined by their very special guest, Brian Saur of the Pure Cinema Podcast, the trio break down the decadent decade by early, mid and late as they examine three deeper cuts. Driving a cab proves more dangerous than a cabbie imagined when he's framed for the murder of the man who killed his wife in the Fun City-set Hit and Run (1982). Cycling on, Kevin Bacon loses it all as a hotshot stockbroker only to feel alive again when he becomes a fast-moving bike messenger in Quicksilver (1986). Cited by Bacon himself as the lowest point of his career, the fellas discuss this fad movie that attempted to capture the same charm as Footloose with a supporting cast that includes Larry Fishburne (Boyz N the Hood), Jamie Gertz (Less Than Zero), David Harris (The Warriors) and Louie Anderson (Coming to America). Lastly, the buddy-dynamic is put to the test when Kiefer Sutherland (The Lost Boys) and Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba) team up to take down a crime ring with a dirty cop in their pocket and recover a stolen heirloom belonging to a Native American tribe. Helmed by the underrated Jack Sholder (The Hidden), wild car chases and hair salon shootouts light up the screen in this pairing of opposites so popular throughout the era. Contrary to our title, there's plenty of meat on the bones of each of our selections to make I Eat Movies #27: Table Scraps - 1980s a meal worthy of filling you up! Brian Saur can also be found on the Just the Discs Podcast (as well as its YouTube Channel), his blog Rupert Pupkin Speaks, Twitter and Letterboxd.

This week on Scream Addicts, Guest Host Paul Farrell welcomes Brian Saur to the show! A writer and podcaster known for Rupert Pupkin Speaks, Just the Discs and Pure Cinema, Mr. Saur has chosen Robert Clouse’s 1982 horror film Deadly Eyes for discussion this week. Based upon the novel The Rats by James Herbert, Deadly Eyes launches a talk which finds Paul and Mr. Saur discussing the animal attack subgenre, the film’s current out of print status, and the fact that the film’s rats are portrayed by tiny canines in rat costumes (!). Along the way, the pair discuss the film’s source novel, the film’s uncomfortable love triangle, and…pet tarantulas?! It’s a fantastic talk with wonderful people, and it’s one we hope you enjoy!

Show Rundown: In this week’s episode, we review Disney’s live action remake of “Beauty & The Beast,” which made $170 million this weekend at the box office. David Tracy, the biggest Disney fan I know and my handsome better half and co-host of my other podcast Old Movies, New Beer, will BE OUR GUEST to talk about. In our second segment, David sticks around to chat about FX’s new anthology series “Feud: Bette & Joan.” And we will end our show with what we are dorking out about this week. Topic 1: Beauty & The Beast Review It’s a tale as old as time. A song as old as rhyme. It’s “Beauty & The Beast,” the latest Disney live-action remake along the lines of “Alice In Wonderland,” “The Jungle Book” and “Cinderella.” Directed by Bill Condon, who we will like to remember directed Dreamgirls and Gods & Monsters, but he also directed two Twilight movies, and starring Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as The Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, Josh Gad as LeFou, with voices by Ewan McGregor, Sir Ian McKellen, Emma Thompson, Audra McDonald and Stanley Tucci. If you don’t know what Beauty & The Beast is about, then you’re probably not listening to this podcast, so … joining us for to talk about “Beauty & The Beast” is the biggest Disney fan I know and the Beauty to my Beast, David Tracy, who co-hosts my other podcast Old Movies, New Beer and works for Chaos Group, which creates the rendering software that is used in pretty much every TV show and movie you love, including “Game Of Thrones,” “The Walking Dead,” “Doctor Strange,” “Rogue One,” “Deadpool” and - of course - “The Spongebob Squarepants Movie.” Thank you for joining us, David. Topic 2: Feud: Bette & Joan on FX Last year, Ryan Murphy unleashed on the world The People vs. OJ Simpson: American Crime, one of the guilty and non-guilty TV viewing pleasures of 2016. Spring 2017 arrives with his latest event mini-series, Feud, starring Jessica Lange as Joan Crawford and Susan Sarandon as Bette Davis and retelling not only the decades long running gunfight these two legendary actresses had from the 1930s to the 1960s, but also the production of one of the most legendary (lots of legendary going on here, there’s a reason this story is being told 50 years later) horror films of all time: Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. Part a retelling of the end of Hollywood’s first Golden Age, part an examination of the knife fights women can get into with each other (this is almost a mirror version of Don Draper’s vices from Mad Men) and part a Ryan Murphy Wisconsin-class cheese fest, Feud is… well, Sonia, you tell me what you think Feud is.

It's that time of the year, and one of our favourite episodes to record. For the fourth year running, we discuss the top 10 older movies we discovered for the first time in 2014. Our lists are feature both class and trash, so hopefully there's something for everyone We have to give thanks to our good pal Rupert of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks blog, which served as the inspiration for these annual episodes.

It's that time of the year, and one of our favourite episodes to record. We run through our lists of the top 10 older movies we discovered for the first time in 2013. Our lists are a bit all over the place, but that's half the fun isn't it? We also run through a few lists provided by listeners - which have provided us with a lot of films to add to our 'To Watch' piles. We have to give thanks to our good pal Rupert of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks blog, which served as the inspiration for these annual episodes. Check out Rupert's blog: http://rupertpupkinspeaks.blogspot.ca/ marriedwithclickers@gmail.com 206-350-9002
It is time for our 2nd annual review of the top 10 older films we saw for the first time. We watched a wide array of films in 2012, and our lists prove it. Once again, we've stolen the idea from our good friend Rupert of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks blog. If you listen to our show regularly, there won't be too many surprises, but our picks do range from the sublime to the ridiculous. There are some weird audio glitches over the course of the first 20 minutes of the show (nothing major - just some small gaps) - apologies in advance. We'd love to hear from you, so drop us a line at 206-338-0793 or marriedwithclickers@gmail.com and make sure to stop by rupertpupkinspeaks.blogspot.com/
As we may have mentioned from time to time (or all the time), we have two young children and that limits the number of times we can see new releases on the big screen. Stealing an idea from our good friend Rupert of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks blog, we decided to create lists of the top 10 films we saw for the first time in 2011. We hit nearly ever genres and our lists include films from as far back as 1935 and as recent as 2008. We do end up discussing some of our favourites from 2011 and respond to some terrific feedback. We'd love to hear from you, so drop us a line at 206-338-0793 or marriedwithclickers@gmail.com and make sure to stop by rupertpupkinspeaks.blogspot.com/
For all of Thomas Pynchon’s tracing of the souring and the downfall of the American fate, from pre-revolution secret doom waiting to devour the 60s and 70s and how that leads to our current tainted now, forever, probably the one thing he didn’t predict coming to pass by this nightmare year of our dark lord 2020 was that, eventually, every single movie obsessive would have their own podcast, including one about his only film adaptation. That said, there is one film podcast out there that reigns supreme: the New Beverly-presented Pure Cinema Podcast, with hosts Brian Saur and Elric Kane, has become an absolutely ESSENTIAL ongoing conversation and cinephilic resource between the two men, their guests, and their friends, about not just the films of the New Bev, but films in general, various subgenres and performers and eras, and, in these odd pandemic times, is a real lifeline of listening.And today, they’ll explore with us the unique cinematic mayhem that is Dr.Rudy Blatnoyd, DDS.About the Guest - ELRIC KANE & BRIAN SAUR (PURE CINEMA PODCAST)A weekly film podcast hosted by Elric Kane (of the Shock Waves podcast) and Brian Saur (of the Rupert Pupkin Speaks film blog) and presented by the New Beverly Cinema, the Pure Cinema Podcast features discussions of new films, old films, double features, cult movies, filmmakers and movie lists among a smorgasbord of other Cinema-related things.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/donations
First up, in this two-part episode, I join staff writer Bright Wall/ Dark Room, contributor for Cinephilia & Beyond and host of the upcoming INCREMENT VICE podcast, Travis Woods. Travis opens the episode by hounding Blake about tempting fate with another Michael Mann podcast. Their war party then continues, going deep on Mann's "time is luck" theme resonating all the more powerfully in Mohicans. TIME: 01:32To close the episode, I join joins film and television critic with Fairfax Media and creator of BINGE-R Mr Craig Mathieson. Blake and Craig discuss Mann's uncanny ability to swell and contract form the collective to the individual focus and that it's kind of a miracle that this film exists.TIME: 1:04:46ABOUT TRAVIS WOODSTravis Woods lives and writes in Los Angeles. He is a staff writer for Bright Wall/ Dark Room, contributor for Cinephilia & Beyond, and features in The Los Angeles Times, Paste Magazine, ScreenCrave, Rupert Pupkin Speaks, and others.

The format of the podcast, which slightly differs from ONE HEAT MINUTE, utilises the entire final twelve-minute climax of Mohicans as a portal to explore the themes of the movie. The show examines the cross-section of political apparatuses, colonial superpower wrangling, and Mr Mann's riff on the "great American hero." The final episode - once again will feature Mr Mann to unpack his intentions with the film in the conception and orchestration of its grand ending.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/donations
ONE HEAT MINUTE is the podcast examining Michael Mann’s 1995 crime opus HEAT minute by minute. It’s the 165th minute (2:44:00 - 2:45:00) - host Blake Howard joins staff writer Bright Wall/ Dark Room, contributor for Cinephilia & Beyond and writer about town Travis Woods. Thankfully Travis briefly takes the lead on this episode as the gravity of the moment nearly becomes too overwhelming to discuss. Blake and Travis go back to nature as it were and unpack this singular ending from a singular filmmaker.Guest Bio:TRAVIS WOODSTravis Woods lives and writes in Los Angeles.
