"What do a machete-wielding motel employee, a hot dog sushi roll, and a heartfelt 9/11 memory have in common?" They all somehow fit into this unforgettable, emotionally charged, and hilariously chaotic episode of The Ben and Skin Show. Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray navigate everything from the death of Charlie Kirk, a decapitation in Dallas, and Cowboys injury news. Also...Personal stories from 9/11, ranging from Ben's CBS sales meeting to Christina's sixth-grade classroom, and KT's junior high football practice where a classmate screamed “World War III!”A local Dallas beheading story. A deep dive into Cowboys cornerback drama and the mystery of Jadeveon Clowney's visit.Food news that includes Potbelly's $566M acquisition, Taco Bell's Y2K menu, and the culinary monstrosity known as the hot dog sushi roll.A tribute to Polly Holliday (Flo from Alice), who passed away just days after the crew randomly discussed her on-air.A preview of Paul Thomas Anderson's new film starring DiCaprio, Sean Penn, and Benicio Del Toro — described by Spielberg as “Kubrick-level absurdist brilliance.”Funniest Quotes:“My buzzer needs an oil change.”“I burned my tongue on a Texas Twinkie.”“You're getting your sack tenderized?”“I put it in the wrong hole. That's my fault.”

James shares how a chance encounter while working as an ER doctor in Santa Monica led him onto the set of ET: The Extra-Terrestrial, where he met Kathleen Kennedy and Steven Spielberg, an opportunity that set his writing career in motion.

In this special edition of Born to Watch, the team dives back into the deep blue to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Steven Spielberg's iconic 1975 thriller, Jaws. But this isn't just a rewatch, it's a cinematic pilgrimage. Hosts Whitey and Dan welcome special guest Paul Glasby to revisit the film not just in spirit, but in spectacle, attending a screening at Hoyts Tweed City, experiencing this Jaws 50th Anniversary Review on the big screen with recliners, giant Pepsi Maxes, and a crew of unsuspecting newcomers.This episode is more than just a review; it's a tribute. For Whitey, who's marking his own 50th birthday, Jaws isn't just a classic; it's a defining piece of his movie-loving DNA, neck-and-neck with Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back as his all-time favourite. The team reminisces about the first time they saw the film, how it scarred them from surfing, and the strange magic that Jaws still holds over an audience, even half a century later.Dan, making his debut on a Jaws episode, brings the perspective of a cinema recluse, someone more used to fields and chickens than Dolby sound and John Williams scores. But even he's swept up by the grandeur of the theatrical experience. Paul, a returning guest and self-proclaimed booster-seat podcaster, shares a British kid's perspective on Jaws' TV legacy, recalling its 3D TV gimmicks and how the film once ruled Saturday night telly. But seeing it on the big screen? That's another beast entirely.Throughout the episode, the guys reflect on Spielberg's breakout masterpiece, how a 27-year-old director, working with malfunctioning mechanical sharks and intense studio pressure, managed to craft a film that changed cinema forever. There's plenty of love for the gritty film stock, practical effects, and Spielberg's decision to show less rather than more. The now-famous story about the shark not working—leading to a suspenseful masterclass in implication over gore—gets its well-deserved praise.They also unpack the movie's unforgettable score, with Paul comparing John Williams' two-note theme to the Rocky IV training montage, so iconic that it shapes the entire experience. For Dan, the real terror lies in the opening scene, all shadows and suggestion. For Whitey, it's the rich character work, Quint's haunted Indianapolis speech, Hooper's dry wit, and Brody's quiet resolve that keep the film swimming in the top tier of cinema history.The episode isn't just nostalgia-heavy; it's a call to arms. Why don't we watch classic films in the cinema more often? Why isn't there a chain of retro movie houses showing Jaws, Alien, The Exorcist, and Boogie Nights on the regular? Dan offers a deeper look into the decline of cinema attendance, post-COVID challenges, and how theatres now survive on mega-drinks and bar-style concessions. But the gang also sees an opportunity: could Born to Watch host monthly screenings of classics? Would audiences come?There's also plenty of fun tangents, dodgy car park stories, oversized soft drinks, generational lines drawn by Paddington in Peru, and roasting fellow podcasters for their Marvel movie hot takes. Expect talk of Spielberg's filmography, the state of modern blockbusters, and whether Top Gun: Maverick or Avengers: Endgame can hold a candle to the cultural typhoon that Jaws was in 1975.In true Born to Watch style, the episode blends deep cinematic appreciation with pub-style banter, bringing in kids' reactions, audience dynamics, and even some surprising praise for Richard Dreyfuss's underrated turn as Hooper. For a film that's been endlessly dissected, this conversation feels fresh, personal, and anchored by genuine love for cinema.Whether you're a longtime fan or a landlocked Gen Z who's never felt the terror of a dorsal fin rising from the surf, this episode is a reminder of why we watch, why we return, and why, 50 years later, Jaws still bites.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONIs Jaws still the scariest movie ever made—or did the rubber shark finally lose its bite? Should Mayor Vaughn have been eaten first?Would YOU get in the water with Hooper, Brody, and a barrel full of bad ideas?Drop us a voicemail at https://www.borntowatch.com.au and share your Jaws hot takes.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your pods.

Emmy Winning writer (Last Week Tonight with John Oliver) and very funny standup comedian (People Pleaser) Josh Gondelman returns to The Spiel to talk about a film that most people probably forgot was produced by Steven Spielberg: 2010's True Grit starring Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, Josh Brolin, and Hailee Steinfeld in her first major role. Based on the Charles Portis novel, previously adapted as a starring vehicle for John Wayne, True Grit is about a young girl who hires a drunk and haggard Marshall to hunt down the man who killed her father. The Coen Bros wrote and directed this incredibly entertaining and highly quotable flick and Vespe and Gondelman delight in going back through the story, finding their favorite moments, and figuring out why the movie is so damn good, even if Spielberg had almost nothing to do with it.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #224, de Gamekings podcast waarin we weer diep in de wereld van films, series en alles geeky duiken. Deze week staan horror, nostalgie én gaming centraal. Jelle bespreekt de langverwachte 28 Years Later, Koos ging terug naar de cultklassieker Highlander en we checken het bizarre verhaal over hoe Steven Spielberg ooit een Call of Duty-film wilde regisseren maar werd afgewezen door Activision. Daarnaast behandelen we nieuws over Marvel Zombies, TRON: Ares, Nicolas Cage als John Madden en de eerste beelden van The Mandalorian & Grogu.Highlander ReviewKoos heeft zich deze week gestort op de cultklassieker Highlander en bespreekt in de podcast of de film de tand des tijds nog weet te doorstaan. De film uit 1986, met Christopher Lambert als de onsterfelijke Connor MacLeod en Sean Connery als zijn mentor, combineert fantasy, zwaardgevechten en de legendarische soundtrack van Queen. Maar hoe kijkt een moderne kijker naar deze mix van campy jaren '80-stijl en epische thema's over onsterfelijkheid? Eén ding is duidelijk: There can be only one!28 Years Later ReviewJelle heeft deze week 28 Years Later gecheckt, de langverwachte opvolger van Danny Boyle's baanbrekende 28 Days Later en 28 Weeks Later. De film pakt de draad decennia na de eerste uitbraak van het Rage-virus weer op en onderzoekt hoe de wereld er inmiddels aan toe is. Zijn de overlevenden erin geslaagd om een samenleving op te bouwen, of ligt er opnieuw totale chaos op de loer?In de podcast deelt Jelle zijn indrukken van de toon, de stijl en natuurlijk de spanning die de franchise altijd kenmerkte. Hoe verhoudt de film zich tot de intense, rauwe sfeer van het origineel? En voelt dit derde deel als een natuurlijke afsluiter van de trilogie of juist als een herhaling van zetten? Verwacht een eerlijke bespreking vol liefde voor het horrorgenre, maar ook kritische noten over waar de film de plank misschien misslaat.Activision wees Steven Spielberg af voor Call of Duty Stel je voor: een Call of Duty-film geregisseerd door niemand minder dan Steven Spielberg. Volgens Puck News gebeurde dat bijna, want Spielberg pitchte zijn eigen visie bij Activision. Met zijn Amblin-team en dealmaker Jimmy Horowitz had hij een voorstel klaar dat garant stond voor grootsheid, compleet met de beruchte “Spielberg Deal” — volledige creatieve controle, finale cut en zeggenschap over marketing. Maar juist dat was voor Activision een brug te ver. Het resultaat? Het plan ging de prullenbak in en Paramount kreeg de rechten.Dat maakt de vraag interessant: wat voor film hadden we gekregen als de regisseur van Saving Private Ryan zich over een van de grootste gamefranchises ooit had gebogen? Call of Duty is met meer dan 500 miljoen verkochte exemplaren en $30 miljard omzet een van de meest lucratieve entertainmentmerken aller tijden. Zonder Spielberg blijft het afwachten of de film dezelfde prestige kan neerzetten of slechts mikt op popcorn-spektakel.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #22400:00:18 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:00:30 28 Years Later00:06:00 28 Years Later The Bone Temple (spoiler alert00:09:50 The Terminal List Dark Wolf00:12:29 Highlander00:27:00 Marvel Zombies Trailer00:29:30 Eyes of Wakanda gekeken00:30:25 Paramount koopt de rechten voor de Call of Duty film00:34:25 Steven Spielberg wilde dolgraag een Call of Duty film maken00:39:30 Nicolas Cage onherkenbaar als John Madden in biopic00:44:10 The Rock wil zich losbreken van typecasting00:54:28 Waarom het 15 jaar duurde voor een TRON sequel01:00:04 TRON: Ares Trailer01:02:45 Sony CEO geeft toe: “Je komt niet meer weg met slechte superhero films”01:11:00 Channing Tatum zal z'n performance als Gambit flink terugschroeven01:14:15 James Gunn onthult Man of Tomorrow01:18:00 Back to the Future re-release op 13 november in de bioscoop01:21:20 Ga stijlvol de feestdagen in01:23:54 Eerste beelden van The Mandalorian & Grogu01:26:06 Black Phone 2 Trailer

TFIYE Ep#200: Riding The 2 Cent Thunderwave! Join hosts Tim and Nate for the milestone 200th episode of The Fork in Your Ear Podcast!, where they dive into a chaotic mix of tech woes, family outings, and the latest in entertainment. Recorded amidst thunder and lightning, this episode is packed with candid banter, nerdy tangents, and plenty of laughs. **Tech Troubles & Gadgets**   Tim and Nate kick things off with a deep dive into Tim's ongoing computer saga, from a rattling PC case to missing power cables. They discuss the challenges of tech repairs, the quirks of hard drive legacies, and Tim's Xbox Series X trade-in for a shiny new 2TB Galaxy model. Nate shares his love for the GameSir X5S mobile controller, praising its affordability, haptics, and compatibility with phones, Switch, and PC.

Este 2025 se cumplen 60 años del formato super 8. Y en 1965, ese mismo año, nació Santiago Segura, cuya carrera cinematográfica empezó precisamente con una Super-8. "Los 'superochistas' - que así ha denominado a los fanáticos de la grabación con los que compartía clase en el instituto - creíamos que podíamos ser Spielberg. Nosotros no queríamos hacer Alcarrás, queríamos hacer Superman". Pero no le hizo falta ningún super héroe para despuntar porque lo que le hizo destacar fue Relatos de la medianoche, un corto de comedia-terror protagonizado por él mismo y alabado, entre otros, por Fernando Trueba.

Steph, John, Steve & Dave put down their phones for screen time with Ice Cube and his (fictional) family! The War of the Worlds has been adapted many times since its first publication in 1898, and each adaptation represented the era in which it was created -- Famously as a radio show in 1938 and the first movie in 1953 when there were national fears of military invasion … then as a Spielberg film in 2005 when there was a national fear of terrorist invasion… And now in 2025 when there's a national fear of invasion of Privacy! It's Amazon Prime's feature length commercial – War of the Worlds!  Here's the rapid recap to catch you up!  Ice Cube plays Will Radford, DHS Agent and creepster dad who should have been DOGE'd out of his job, because he spends his day stalking his two estranged children – his pregnant daughter, Faith and his intense Gen-Z-er son Dave. When mysterious meteors crash into the Earth, it's up to these three plus Faith's fiancé and Amazon delivery driver, Mark as well as Eva Longoria (whose character's name I don't know and I couldn't quickly see it on Wikipedia, so I'm giving her as much attention as Will gives her in the movie, which is to say close to none) … Anyway, when machines from Mars rise out of the meteor craters, our heroes realize that the aliens are here to chew bubblegum and steal our data…and they are all out of bubblegum. So, in a shameless plot swipe from a totally different alien invasion movie, they have to upload a virus to the alien machines to put an end to the WAR OF THE WORLDS!!!Follow us onTwitter @CraptaculusInstagram @cinemacraptaculusIntro Music: "The Builder" - Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) | Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Episode 58 - Special Episode: Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)Jurassic Park is one of those franchises that I absolutely love, where Spielberg helped define the summer blockbuster movie season. The first two especially are amazing. Jurassic Park III was a flop. Jurassic World and Fallen Kingdom were chapters that brought new life and characters into the franchise. Dominion was overstuffed but had fun visuals and brought back all the characters we love from this series. Three years later we are now caught up with this one... and I am so confused by it.You have Gareth Edwards directing. You can see his work in Rogue One, The Creator, Godzilla (2014), and Monsters (2010). The man is amazing with visual effects and knows how to work quickly and economically. Disney loves him, and I understand why. You also have David Koepp, the OG writer of Jurassic Park. You also have a rock star cast with Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Rupert Friend. This should have been amazing.From an audience and review point of view, there was consensus in the reactions, and yet… this is one of the most globally successful movies of the year! I am so confused and have so many questions. The mysterious box office of Jurassic World Rebirth. This one is still bugging me and I need answers.Jurassic World Rebirth is playing in theaters now. It is also available to rent and buy on all platforms.

This week, we fire up the retroscope and revisit one of sci-fi cinema's most iconic invasions: George Pal's War of the Worlds (1953). From its long and winding road to production to the unforgettable cobra-headed Martian war machines, we explore how this Cold War-era classic redefined alien terror for the big screen. You'll hear how producer George Pal—Hollywood's original sci-fi visionary—brought H.G. Wells' Victorian apocalypse into postwar Southern California, swapping tripods for manta rays and existential dread for atomic-age spectacle. We break down the casting of Gene Barry as Dr. Clayton Forrester, surrounded by a rich ensemble of veteran character actors, and how their grounded performances helped sell the surreal. We also dive into the film's bold departures from the novel: The shift in setting and tone The redesign of the Martians and their technology  And of course, we spotlight the unforgettable war machine design by art director Albert Nozaki—those sleek, levitating death-dealers with cobra-like necks and heat rays that helped the film win an Oscar for Best Visual Effects.

Macon Blair (The Toxic Avenger, I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore) joins Vespe to talk about one of the most impactful films of Steven Spielberg's career, Twilight Zone: The Movie. They dip into the tragedy, of course, but there's more to this anthology than the controversy. This film brings together some of the best filmmakers of the era in John Landis, Joe Dante, Spielberg, and George Miller and they're all given room to go as bonkers as they want to as storytellers. While not totally successful, it remains a highly entertaining film and a juicy conversation starter for movie nerds. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO LISTEN TO MONSTER PARTY! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD revel in the legacy of a shark named “Bruce.” Get a bucket of chum, and find yourself a bigger boat, as MONSTER PARTY presents… JAWS: 50 YEARS OF FRIGHTS AND BITES!!! In 1975, STEVEN SPIELBERG unleashed a breathtaking thriller that would go on to be one of the highest-grossing motion pictures of all time, ushering in the era of the “blockbuster.” Based on the best-selling book by PETER BENCHLEY, JAWS' journey from novel to screen was a difficult one. Faced with a malfunctioning shark, precarious ocean conditions, bickering actors, and skyrocketing production costs, Spielberg would rise above these obstacles, turning adversity into ingenuity. And let's not forget the contribution of JOHN WILLIAMS' legendary score. To this day, can anyone resist humming “Dun Dun Dun Dun” when they hit the pool? After JAWS' initial worldwide success, the film was followed up by several lackluster sequels and copycats. But no matter how hard (or how little) other filmmakers tried, no one was able to capture the magic that made JAWS be considered by many to be one of the few perfect films. And who would have thought that 50 years later, the film they almost pulled the plug on would be the pop culture icon that it is today? Joining us for this monumental maw fest is an accomplished actor, author, journalist, and publicist who is a beloved staple of the monster kid community. He has appeared in such diverse movies and TV shows as IN THE SHADOWS, THE PREY: KARNOCTUS, LAVALANTULA, CHASTITY BITES, BLOOD AND GUTS WITH SCOTT IAN, TIM AND ERIC AWESOME SHOW, GREAT JOB, THE FLINTSTONES, BEETHOVEN'S 2ND, and STAR TREK: VOYAGER. He's been a long-time contributor for FANGORIA, STARLOG, FILM REVIEW, and DREAD CENTRAL, and is the author of the books THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO COMPANION, BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY: A TV COMPANION, YOU WOULDN'T LIKE ME WHEN I'M ANGRY: A HULK COMPANION, and the must-have tome for any respectable JAWS fan, JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE: A JAWS COMPANION. Please welcome… PAT JANKIEWICZ! MONSTER PARTY SALUTES THE PHENOMENON OF JAWS! AND THIS TIME… IT'S PERSONAL.
