This week, 3 Guys in a Flick are reporting for duty with Goldfinger, the 1964 Bond classic where Sean Connery fully locks into 007 mode and the franchise formula turns to solid gold. From Shirley Bassey's unforgettable theme song to the Aston Martin DB5, Oddjob's deadly hat, Goldfinger's over-the-top villainy, and the legendary Fort Knox finale, the guys break down why this film became the blueprint for generations of Bond movies. They discuss the film's massive blockbuster impact, Guy Hamilton's influence on the Bond/Q dynamic, standout performances from Connery, Gert Frobe, Honor Blackman, and Harold Sakata, and whether the movie still earns its golden reputation today. Expect spoilers, trivia, gadgets, gold paint, questionable villain decisions, pacing debates, and plenty of shaken-not-stirred banter as Don, John, and Ken take aim at one of the most iconic entries in the James Bond franchise.

It's as if 007 went to prison for decades, was let out by government guys played by John Spencer & William Forsythe and then he had to help a nerdy Nicolas Cage save hostages on a deserted island. Well, hold up, that IS the plot of The Rock! Michael Bay's action movie is deeper than you might expect, with Ed Harris playing a superstar Marine general who becomes a terrorist…with sympathetic complexity. Cage is the out-of-his-element expert on chemical weapons who teams with Sean Connery's Bond-like ex-spy who once escaped from Alcatraz. The flick is a Bay/Bruckheimer/Simpson collab so it's gaudy, loud, tart-tongued and very exciting. Those 2 Mexican stand-offs are phenomenal scenes. There's death and destruction in The Rock, sure, yet it's just fun. So, yesh, cut Agent Goodspeed some slack as he battles the guy threatening to launch deadly gas while mourning his men (and "his wife") in this 744th episode. Well, Actually: Mason uses SF Information to find his daughter...he doesn't just magically remember a phone number he never had. Also, the funny line about bailing on lemons is in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, not I Love You, Man. Also also, it DOES seem like Tony Todd's character knocks over a rock on purpose to start a massacre in the shower scene...and also at least SOME of Hummel's marines are killed when that "all enemies…foreign, sir, and domestic" melee is over.

 Introducing our new stand of podcasts: While they were Bond.In this new series we look at the film starring James Bond actors during their tenure as James Bond.Our first episode focuses on Sidney Lumet's extraordinary and harrowing wartime prison drama, The Hill, starring Sean Connery who by 1965 was anxious to be cast in roles very different to 007. He certainly got his wish with this outstanding yet deeply controversial telling of life in a north African prison camp for British soldiers in World War 2.

Nobody Gets Off This Staircase: Krissy, Nathan, and Pete Take On The UntouchablesWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell are joined by special guest Pete Wright—podcast impresario and pod boss at TruStory FM—to dig into Brian De Palma's The Untouchables (1987), where the real question isn't whether Al Capone goes down, but how far a straight-arrow fed is willing to bend to make it happen.The central tension here is a juicy one: Kevin Costner's deliberately bland Elliot Ness surrounded by Sean Connery's full-voltage Obi-Wan energy and Andy Garcia's silk-jacketed handsomeness. Is Costner's wooden earnestness a character choice or just… Costner being Costner? The gang has feelings. Meanwhile, Pete makes a compelling case that David Mamet is at his very best when someone else is in the director's chair—and that De Palma's camera (hello, split diopter) transforms stilted period dialogue into something genuinely cinematic.What keeps the conversation sparking is the sheer audacity of the filmmaking: an improvised staircase sequence that became the movie's most iconic scene, Armani-clad gangsters that make everyone want to buy overcoats for a city they don't live in, and a baby carriage that shows up twice in two consecutive episodes of the pod. The episode stays premise-level throughout, so you can jump in clean and still feel every gut punch.TruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosIf you could only pick one scene from this movie to show someone who'd never seen it, which one would you choose—and why? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

Dana and Tom with 5x Club Member, Jesse Sertle (Fellow group member of CineMadison) discuss The Rock (1996) for its 30th anniversary: directed by Michael Bay, written by David Weisberg, Douglas S. Cook, and Mark Rosner, cinematography by John Schwartzman, editing by Richard Francis-Bruce, music by Nick Glennie-Smith and Hans Zimmer, starring Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and Nicolas Cage.Plot Summary: In The Rock, a rogue U.S. general (Ed Harris) seizes Alcatraz Island and threatens San Francisco with stolen chemical weapons, forcing an unlikely duo—a bookish FBI chemist (Nicolas Cage) and a vanished‑from‑the‑grid ex‑spy (Sean Connery) —into the island's fog‑shrouded fortress. As they infiltrate the abandoned prison's tunnels and rusted battlements, the mission becomes a tense clash of wills and philosophies, where loyalty, guilt, and the weight of past secrets press in as heavily as the Pacific mist. The Rock turns into a high‑stakes pressure cooker, inviting you into a world where every corridor hums with danger and every choice feels like it could tip the balance.Guest:Jesse Sertle (5x Club Member)Fellow group member of CineMadisonPreviously on Rounders (1998), Easy Rider (1969), and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), Star Wars (1977)@jsertle on IGChapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for The Rock03:00 Welcome Back, Jesse Sertle06:04 Tom's Difficulty with Michael Bay08:55 Relationship(s) with The Rock14:07 Michael Bay19:28 Nicolas Cage23:24 Sean Connery25:23 How to Enjoy Any Michael Bay Movie26:25 Plot Summary for The Rock27:23 What is The Rock About?28:41 Did You Know?32:39 First Break33:22 What's Happening with Jesse Sertle?34:03 Best Performance(s)39:51 Best Scene(s)47:22 Second Break48:14 Best/Funniest Lines51:24 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy57:09 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:01:45 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:05:02 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:11:53 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:16:10 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:17:49 Remaining Questions for The Rock01:20:19 Thank You to Jesse and Remaining Thoughts01:23:33 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/the-rock-1996-ft-jesse-sertleFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:The Rock, Michael Bay, Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, Ed Harris, 90s action movies, film critique, behind the scenes, movie analysis, film analysis, movie review, 90s cinema, rewatchability, film legacyRonny Duncan Studios

Take pleasure in the gut-wrenching excitement of a 90s action milestone! This week on The Dana Buckler Show, we are heading straight to Alcatraz to break down Michael Bay's 1996 definitive high-concept thriller, The Rock.Coming off the success of Bad Boys, Michael Bay was handed the keys to a massive blockbuster budget, a killer premise, and an absolutely legendary cast. The result? A beautifully shot, fast-paced, explosion-filled masterpiece that stands as a high-water mark for the golden era of 90s action cinema and Hollywood summer blockbusters.In this cinema retrospective, film historian Dana Buckler dives deep into: The Powerhouse Trio: The incredible, lightning-in-a-bottle chemistry between Nicolas Cage's frantic, vinyl-loving FBI chemical weapons expert Stanley Goodspeed and Sean Connery's sophisticated, badass British operative John Patrick Mason. The Sympathetic Villain: Ed Harris's brilliant, nuanced performance as General Hummel—an antagonist with legitimate, tragic motives that elevate the stakes way beyond a standard hostage situation. The Pinnacle of 90s Action: From the iconic, destructive Ferrari car chase through the streets of San Francisco to the brutal shower room standoff, we break down why the practical effects and set pieces in this film still hold up today. The Uncredited Script Doctors: How Hollywood legends like Quentin Tarantino, Aaron Sorkin, and Jonathan Hensleigh secretly helped polish the razor-sharp dialogue. Whether you're a long-time fan who can quote "Your best! Losers always whine about their best" line-for-line, or you're revisiting this classic Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer production era for the first time, grab your green smoke and join us for the ultimate film review.Welcome to The Rock!Join our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/danabucklershowJoin my Patreon for early access to all episodes, plus a new exclusive podcast, go to Patreon.com/howisthismovieSubscribe to the podcast on your favorite podcast platform by going to https://linktr.ee/DanaBucklerShowJoin our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/danabucklershowJoin Our Patreon for early access to all episodes, plus a new exclusive podcast, go to Patreon.com/howisthismovie #TheRock #TheDanaBuckler Show #90sAction #NicolasCage #SeanConnery #MichaelBay #FilmPodcast #MovieHistory #CinemaRetrospective #ActionMovies #90sCinema #FilmBuff

Hammer Horror delivered one of its finest 1970s films with Blood from the Mummy's Tomb, despite a notoriously cursed production. This 1971 British release is the studio's fourth and final Mummy film, loosely adapted by Christopher Wicking from Bram Stoker's 1903 novel The Jewel of Seven Stars. Crucially, it remains the only entry in the franchise where a physical mummy never actually appears.The trouble began early when a gap in the studio schedule forced the film into premature production. Wicking wanted to keep Stoker's original book title, but James Carreras refused, leading to a brainstorming session that birthed Blood from the Mummy's Tomb – a title Wicking never expected them to use. Wicking also clashed with producer Howard Brandy and was barred from the set, forcing him to work with director Seth Holt secretly in the evenings. Brandy later claimed the script was unshootable and heavily rewritten by Holt. Brandy also wanted to cast Amy Grant, but Sir James Carreras insisted on Valerie Leon.Tragedy struck five weeks into the six-week shoot when Seth Holt suffered a fatal heart attack on set, collapsing into the arms of actor Aubrey Morris. Michael Carreras tried to recruit Don Sharp to finish the film, but Sharp was committed to a project in Israel. Michael Carreras ultimately directed the final week himself, later noting that Holt's footage did not cut together well, forcing them to salvage what they could.Valerie Leon shines in the dual roles of Margaret Fuchs and Queen Tera. Beyond her famous Hai Karate aftershave adverts and seven Carry On appearances – including Carry On Christmas: Carry On Stuffing – Leon delivered a critically praised performance but clashed with the studio. She was deeply upset when producers denied her time off to attend Holt's funeral, and her refusal to perform a nude scene required a body double. Hammer never hired her again. Her career later included roles alongside two different James Bonds, Roger Moore and Sean Connery.The supporting cast features incredible British character talent. James Villiers plays Corbeck, George Coulouris plays Berigan, and Aubrey Morris features as Doctor Putnum. Morris was described by Jeremy Brett to Noël Coward as the finest small-part player in London, boasting roles in The Wicker Man, A Clockwork Orange, and as the bubble-bathing B-Ark captain in The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Rosalie Crutchley plays Helen Dickerson. James Cossins brings his trademark blustering authority to the role of an abusive psychiatric nurse, and a young Anthony Head makes an uncredited appearance.Andrew Keir plays Julian Fuchs, stepping in after Peter Cushing completed just one day of filming before leaving due to his wife's emphysema diagnosis. Keir's presence links back to our Quatermass and the Pit reviews, Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D., and Cleopatra alongside Richard Burton. The film is elevated by a brilliant electronic score by Tristram Ogilvie Cary, the pioneer who founded EMS, created the VCS 3 synthesiser, and composed the music for the first Doctor Who Dalek serial.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/general-witchfinders.

Remember The Untouchables from 1987 starring Kevin Costner & Sean Connery? We remember it being the bee's knees. A real hotsy-totsy gangster picture where every problem could be solved with a quick quip & a Tommy Gun. Every scene is packed with tough mugs, and enough lead flying around Chicago to start a scrap metal shortage. We remember Robert De Niro's Al Capone being one scary palooka, and our good guys trying to clean up the town one wise guy at a time. But is this Prohibition-era classic still the cat's pajamas, or has it gone the way of bathtub gin and twenty-cent cigars? So grab your fedora, tell the coppers to take a hike, and join us as we revisit The Untouchables to find out if this old-time gangster flick still packs a wallop.

Getting kissed by Sean Connery, whilst he was James Bond, fanned repeatedly by Bob Dylan when she sang, plucked for a film by Frank Sinatra, bagels and the part of a lifetime from Tom Hanks, gaslit and insulted by Jerry Lewis, adored and showcased by Dean Martin, wildly successful club proprietor with Hugh Hefner, best friends with Connie Stevens, and Diane Ladd, taught a golden secret by Shelley Winters, asked to serenade her hero Judy Garland, and then had the favor returned, making the funny with Renee Taylor, the straight serious with John Houseman, stress understudying Barbara Streisand, mad love for Bette Midler, who almost played her, Tony, Emmy Golden Globe nominee, Lainie Kazan, dancer, singer, actor, spilled all this and so much more! My favorite character in my favorite movie, My Favorite Year, we got the behind-the-scenes fun, Peter O'Toole and his wonderfulness, improvising one of the funniest lines, likewise with My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which she waited a year to hear, then had the time of her life with a cast she's still connected to. What a life Lainie's led! What work she's done! And what a fun, fierce, and fabulous woman she is! Blessed to call her a friend and even more to know she was off to have drinks and dinner with my mother, which she does most nights. I can't wait for her in-process memoir, sure to shock, delight, and thrill. I love Lainie! Who doesn't!

This week, we're greenlighting the incursion with 1996's "The Rock." We talk all about the Michael Bay blockbuster with Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage, Ed Harris and about 75 other awesome actors, and we examine how well the action holds up 30 years later. Listen now.

Dragonheart (1996) was one of the first films to feature a fully CGI character acting alongside real humans. Voiced by Sean Connery and brought to life by ILM, Draco was a groundbreaking creation. Yet despite this technical achievement and four sequels, the movie is rarely discussed today. Angela joins me to explore what stopped Dragonheart from becoming a true classic 30 years later.https://youtu.be/lubpME_YxbUhttps://rumble.com/v7adw5m-does-anyone-remember-dragonheart-hack-the-movies-479.html

Marshall O'Neill (Sean Connery) has just been assigned to take over security of a new mining colony....on the Jupiter moon of IO. :o Yes this takes place in the future though many things have not changed as much as you would think: suddenly miners are starting to die under some VERY unusual circumstances as it might be as a result of a new illegal drug.  Against the advice of everyone around him, O'Neill digs deeper to find out how and why these drugs are starting to spread....and soon finds himself being targeted.  Even though this film was a critical and commercial failure upon release forty-five years ago, it has since developed a cult following and is now often affectionately nicknamed "High Noon in Space."  Legendary genre filmmaker Peter Hyams (TimeCop, Capricorn One, Running Scared) directed this sci-fi western which also co-stars Peter Boyle, Frances Sternhagen, and Clarke Peters. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Huge Talk Birdie today, we start with the great win from Lucas Herbert on the LIV Tour, and how his record just gets better. Mark talks about when he played with him in the Vic Open, and Nick shares a story about playing with Lucas on the Gold Coast. Nick describes him as 'streaky' and says consistency is the next goal for Lucas. Unfortunately not in the PGA Championship this weekend which is a shame, and we talk about where he may end up, and have status, should LIV fold.The Korean cheating incident continues, with more coming out about what happened when Inhoi Hur cheated in the tournament and the rules officials completely screwed it up. Nick has received an email from one of the broadcasters at the tournament who listens to the pod, and says that whilst our comments last week were on the mark, there were some more things that happened that he witnessed which we didn't discuss.....he fills in the gaps....holy hell, could this wild story get wilder? You bet it can.He reveals that all four rules officials who erred were Korean Golf Association officials, none from the Asian Tour were involved. He says 'no sane golfer would ever accept a ruling that gave them a mulligan', and confirmed that the Asian and Korean players were all furious with both the officials and Inhoi Hur. He also describes the mayhem at the clubhouse which he witnessed, and that he was there when Inhoi Hur's wife was screaming at officials, so much so that Inhoi took her out of the clubhouse - the only honourable thing he did all weekend to be honest.Nick plays a grab from Sean Connery on golf, which Inhoi Hur could do well to consider in future.Onto the Australian Open. Following our chat with James Sutherland last week with the news of the AO move to North Adelaide, we've had some time to process it, and Nick and Mark aren't entirely convinced. Nick says he has some concerns and worries the course will not have the cache for the big international names to make the trip. Mark is worried that the course has bee committed when it's not even built yet, however he understands from someone who is in the know, that the offer made by South Australia was one that was impossible to say no to. Plenty of feedback on this from you, which we won't do today - given the volume of cheating feedback - but we'll do a bonus feedback pod tomorrow just on the AO.For Hostplus, Nick says that his 'That's a Plus' for golf this week is the career of caddy Mick Doran who has retired this week. One of the great guys on the tour.A reminder of our Talk Birdie To Me annual survey, great prizes up for grabs, it takes about 6 minutes the link to do it is here.For Betr, Marks Top 5 this week is people, some golfers, who were given names by their parents that are very golf inspired, perhaps with an intention in mind. Has he missed any? Let us know.The PING Globals from Nick, plenty of results to run through including a strong performance from Ryan Ruffels who played at the weekend, Mark tells a story about playing with him when he (Ryan) was 14 and being blown away by how good he was. Nick also mentions Boo Weekley who won at the weekend, and we remember the orangutan story....if you missed it, you really need to see it. Here's the link.Feedback today for Southern Golf Club is all focused on the Inhoi Hur cheating saga. We start with a voicemail and then work through just a fraction of the huge amount of feedback we received from you.And a ripping Masterclass for the Golf Clearance Outlet from Nick on rhythm and tempo and why 'matching' the two is important, inspired by Brandt Snedeker.Phew....a big pod today, back tomorrow with an Australian Open bonus feedback pod!We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And Southern Golf Club.

Saruman has no time for the simples of peasants; Alan and Matt wouldn't mind if things were simpler. Join The Man of the West and The Nerd of the Rings as we get an in-depth look at Saruman's continuing jealousy of Gandalf as we conclude our four-episode study of The Hunt for the Ring from Unfinished Tales. Saruman knows it's a long day living in Isengard, Gandalf gives reasons why smoking is actually good, and Radagast gets stuck in the middle. We alliterate with Sean Connery, wonder where the non-smoking section is in Rivendell, and decide we clearly cannot choose the hobbit in front of you.

It's Mike White May here at the Kulturecast and we're talking Sean Connery all month long! We kick off the month with a look at one of the many pairings of Sidney Lumet and Connery with the 1965 film The Hill. Featuring an ensemble cast including Ozzie Davis, it focuses on a group of military prisoners being held in a North African "glass house" where men are broken just for fun. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.

The name's Bond… James Bond. And this week, we're going back to where it all began. From the smoky card table introduction to the birth of the 007 legacy, 3 Guys and a Flick cracks open Dr. No—the film that didn't just introduce a spy… it created a global icon. We dive into Sean Connery's legendary debut, the moment that defined cool for generations, and yes…Ursula Andress emerging from the ocean in a scene that changed cinema forever. But this isn't just nostalgia—it's a full mission briefing.

Tom Hush, Executive Producer at WLS-AM 890, joins Nick for another round of Tom's Theater of Trash. This time he celebrates The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the infamous 2003 box office flop based on the Alan Moore graphic novel and starring Sean Connery. Tom breaks down why he loves it, why it failed, why it maybe didn't deserve to, and how so many of Moore's other works have ended up as rough movie adaptations. Then, with May just getting started, Nick puts Esmeralda Leon through a themed quiz all about the month. They cover everything from May Day traditions and the official flowers of May to Amelia Earhart and more. It's gonna be May. [Ep 451]

No episódio deste mês, Fred Almeida recebe Fábio Rockenbach (professor da Universidade de Passo Fundo e do curso "A Experiência do Cinema") e o cinéfilo e ouvinte Wilmerson da Silva para uma conversa sobre o filme de Jean-Jacques Annaud baseado no romance homônimo de Umberto Eco, "O Nome da Rosa" (Der Name der Rose, 1986). O livro do italiano vendeu 30 milhões de cópias ao redor do mundo e antes mesmo de ser publicado na França, o diretor já buscava incessantemente obter os direitos autorais para levar o texto para as telas. O resultado foi um dos clássicos mais lembrados da década de 80 e um marco fundamental na carreira de Sean Connery e Christian Slater, o primeiro lutando para se desvencilhar da imagem do  personagem 007 e o segundo tentando migrar sua carreira na TV para o cinema.-------------------------------LINKS PARA ADQUIRIR O LIVRO DO PFC ("Uma Jornada pelo Cinema - Anos 1950"):UICLAP - ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://loja.uiclap.com/titulo/ua98290/⁠⁠⁠⁠AMAZON (capa dura e e book) - ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com.br/dp/6501481376⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------Acesse nosso site: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.filmesclassicos.com.br⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @podcastfcProcure "Podcast Filmes Clássicos" no seu aplicativo de podcast do celular, no Spotify, YouTube, Anchor ou iTunes.

Our most-requested movie is celebrating its 30th anniversary! It's the kind of movie where a cable car inextricably flies straight up into air out of nowhere... A scene so amazing that Isaac Slade calls in to premiere a sequel to his Fray hit "Over My Head (Cable Car)" right here on this episode! We also have a brand new segment called "When was the last time David Hallgren watched this movie?" that we think will really go places. What if Quentin Tarantino wrote the Nicolas Cage parts, Aaron Sorkin wrote the government scenes, Sean Connery hired British writers and basically just played James Bond, and somehow it all came together into the only Michael Bay film in the Criterion Collection? The Rock absolutely should not work — and absolutely does.If you'd like to advertise with us or sponsor us, please e-mail greatbadmoviesshow@gmail.comSubscribe to Great Bad Movies wherever you listen to podcastsMore Great Bad Movies online:InstagramGreat Bad Movies WebsiteYouTubeEmail us at greatbadmoviesshow@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week - we're falling through holes in the universe and landing in Time Bandits, Terry Gilliam's visually cacophonous 1981 adventure about a small boy careening through time with a band of thieves pursued by God and evil itself. There's… a lot going on. It's possible that Time Bandits features the best backstory to a heist ever conceived (a band of God's minor manufacturers are sent to the repairs department for creating a very unusual tree, and use the map of all the holes in the universe ("it was a rush job, seven days...") to steal things instead of fixing the fabric of... everything. It's for absolute certain that it's another slightly-too-scary-for-kids-but-actually-great-as-an-adult adventure, and another glimpse into what Sean Connery was up to after that whole Bond deal.

Corruption, crime, and Connery—diving deep into De Palma's classic.In this episode of Review It Yourself, we break down the first half of The Untouchables—the iconic Prohibition-era crime thriller directed by Brian De Palma. Joined by co-host Sarah, we explore the film's powerful opening act, its larger-than-life characters, and why this stylish gangster epic still commands attention nearly four decades later.From the tense cat-and-mouse battle between federal agent Eliot Ness and Chicago crime boss Al Capone, to the unforgettable performances by Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, and Robert De Niro, we unpack what makes this film such a standout in the gangster genre. Is it the script? The score? The mythologising of law enforcement? Or Connery's scene-stealing gravitas?Expect thoughtful film analysis, sharp opinions, historical context around Prohibition-era Chicago, and a discussion about how Hollywood reshapes real-life events into cinematic legend. Whether you're a long-time fan of classic crime dramas or discovering this film for the first time, this episode offers insight, debate, and plenty of appreciation for one of the 1980s' most celebrated gangster movies.We discuss:The film's themes of justice, morality, and myth-makingThe dynamic between Ness and MaloneDe Palma's directorial style and use of tensionPerformances that elevate the materialHow The Untouchables compares to other mob classicsIf you love deep-dive movie reviews, classic cinema breakdowns, and honest film discussion, this episode is for you.Please Note: There are direct quotes used in this review, which include the use of contextual slurs/stereotypes.

Violence escalates, loyalties fracture, justice turns brutally personal.In Part Two of their deep dive into The Untouchables, Sean and co-host Sarah break down the explosive second half of Brian De Palma's Prohibition-era crime classic. If Part One explored myth-making and morality, this episode tackles consequence, sacrifice, and the film's unforgettable climax.From the emotional weight of Sean Connery's Oscar-winning performance to the operatic violence that defines De Palma's directing style, we analyse how the story of Eliot Ness versus Al Capone reaches its dramatic peak.We explore the tension between justice and revenge, the cost of incorruptibility, and whether the film earns its legendary status among gangster cinema greats.Starring Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, and Robert De Niro, this 1987 crime epic blends Hollywood spectacle with historical myth.But does the courtroom finale deliver? Does the violence feel operatic or excessive? And does The Untouchables still hold up for modern audiences?In this episode, we discuss:The emotional impact of Malone's arcThe morality of Ness's final choicesThe famous Union Station sequence and De Palma's visual storytellingThe balance between historical fact and cinematic legendWhether The Untouchables deserves its classic statusIf you're searching for:The Untouchables 1987 reviewThe Untouchables podcast discussionBrian De Palma film analysisSean Connery Oscar performance breakdownGangster movie deep dive podcast…this episode delivers sharp film criticism, humour, debate, and honest takes.Sarah returns as co-host for this two-part breakdown.

The job market for visual effects and CG artists has not just contracted, it has fundamentally restructured. The skills that guaranteed a career five years ago are not the skills that will get anyone hired today, and the people who understand that shift most clearly are the ones placing talent for a living. Stan Szymanski and Susan Thurman O'Neal, arguably the two best-known recruiters working in VFX, return to CG Garage to talk with Christopher Nichols and Daniel about what is actually happening in the hiring landscape and what artists at every career stage should be doing about it. The conversation covers the death of the specialist assembly line, the rise of the generalist, and why there are almost no generalists left in the United States. Stan and Susan get specific: what the three open roles Susan is actively recruiting for right now tell us about where the industry is heading, why the recruiter's job today looks more like casting director than HR function, why a medieval history degree may be more valuable to an AI prompter than a Maya certification, and what both of them tell artists who want to resist AI entirely. The framing question underneath all of it is the one Sean Connery asks Kevin Costner in The Untouchables: what are you prepared to do?
