“E.T. phone home” E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Henry Thomas, Dee Wallace and Drew Barrymore Next Time: Cocktail (1988)
Against all odds, 1975's Jaws was released and before long, was labeled a certified hit. So it's safe to say that not firing a forward thinking young director for going over 100 days over budget paid off, and before the term was even uttered, Universal Studios had a franchise on their hands. But what next? Well, it would only seem fit that they would capitalize on it with a sequel. Of course, the studio approached their young wunderkind Steven Spielberg to see if he would like to direct the follow up. But, after the nightmare that was the first one, plus his at the time complete disdain for anything and everything that was sequel related, Spielberg passed. So after a couple other attempts with a couple other directors, the studio settled on TV director Jeannot Szwarc. And despite the film running into many of the same problems the original did, (as well as a very disgruntled Roy Schneider being so angry about having to do this film he was getting in literal fights with Szwarc) Jaws 2 was released in 1978 and was a certified hit. Despite this success, there was one person who it passed over, and that is our very own Adam Bunch. See, Adam has never seen Jaws 2. Until now. Join the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as they review Jaws 2, and find out if their love for the first one carries over onto this one.
Was haben Steven Spielberg und der Anchorman Markus Gaupp (Sky) gemeinsam? Wann sollte der VAR tatsächlich eingreifen? Und: Sollte der Producer Jens Huiber nicht nur in Sachen Comics etwas ruhiger werden?

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesThough Disney and Marvel Studios have remained tight-lipped and cagey concerning details around the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, the Internet, and a few reputable trades, have collectively discerned that we apparently “know when the Avengers: Doomsday trailer is coming.” The prognosticators have deytermined the trailer will be attached to December's Avatar: Fire & Ash – big news, if true! Another unconfirmed, but believable rumor that has taken the Internet by storm concerns Marvel TV's Wonder Man series and its episode run times, which places the longest episode at 34 minutes and the shortest at 23 including credits. Per The Hollywood Reporter, DC Studios has greenlit a Superman spinoff series focusing on standout Skyler Gisondo's Jimmy Olsen and coming to us from Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda, the creators of Netflix's award-winning mockumentary American Vandal. The series is said to focus on Olsen and other Daily Planet reporters, (though Lois Lane and Clark Kent were conspicuously excluded,) as he tackles cases involving superpowered villains, with Season One featuring Flash rogue Gorilla Grodd as a big bad. Predator Badlands was the apex, ahem, predator at the box office last weekend debuting to $40 million domestically and doubling the haul internationally at $80 million worldwide. The film outperformed expectations, representing a much-needed shot of adrenaline in what has been a lethargic Fall box office, while also putting up bests for the franchise; beating out 2004's Alien Vs Predator and 2018's The Predator in the domestic and global arenas, respectively.Blue Beetle and Cobra Kai star Xolo Maridueña has been cast in season 3 of Netflix's One Piece and will play the character Portgas D.

The second season comes back to Prime ten years after the first season debuted. Warner Brothers has set a release date for the next film in The Gremlins franchise of November 19th 2027. Steven Spielberg is returning to executive produce “Gremlins 3” while “Harry Potter” filmmaker Chris Columbus is set to direct and produce. Disney has released the first official trailer for season 2 of Percy Jackson and The Olympians, which begins streaming on December 10th. In gaming news, Skydance Games is once again pushing the release for the much-anticipated “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra” video game from May 2026 to November 2026. Rockstar Games also announced that they would be delaying Grand Theft Auto 6 once again, this time from May 2026 to November 2026 as well. Ryan Reynolds and Amazon MGM have teamed up to develop a remake of Thunderbolt & Lightfoot, a 1974 action comedy that starred Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges.

50 years ago, history was made as Jaws was released to theaters and took the first of a few steps (George Lucas would do the same thing a couple years later with a little space movie you might have heard of) in changing the way cinema was made and marketed to the masses. An argument can be made -and is made on this podcast- that 26 year old director Steven Spielberg got a lifetime mulligan in his career with completing the 1975 blockbuster to the masses. How else can you explain him being allowed to direct again after the release of 2004's The Terminal? But boy was it difficult getting there. Listen to this long awaited, near two hour Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as Garrett, Matt, and Adam go over everything that went into the infamously difficult shooting of Jaws, as well as review scene by scene one of movie history's most important films. Or is it? And be sure to come back the next few weeks as Adam watches the Jaws sequels for the very first time.

They recount fascinating behind-the-scenes anecdotes, such as the improvised decision by Ford to shoot the sword-wielding adversary, which not only showcased the actor's quick wit but also added a layer of humor that became emblematic of the series.Takeaways: Raiders of the Lost Ark is a seminal film that fundamentally reshaped the action-adventure genre, setting new standards for cinematic storytelling. The film's pre-production history reveals numerous challenges, including casting decisions that could have dramatically altered its iconic character, Indiana Jones. The improvisation during the filming of the famous sword fight scene exemplifies the creativity and adaptability of the cast and crew under unexpected circumstances. The portrayal...
The American New Wave, or New Hollywood, launched the careers of some of the United States' most iconic filmmakers, from Steven Spielberg and George Lucas to Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese. But what was this era, when studios granted directors unprecedented creative freedom, really about, and what did it reveal about 1970s America?Hosts Elliot Bloom and Tom Ooms dive into this transformative period, discussing the quintessential elements of the movement while spotlighting cult heroes like Robert Altman and John Cassavetes and overlooked filmmakers such as Barbara Loden and Elaine May. They also ask whether today's social and political climate in the United States could spark a new wave of radical cinema.Get tickets to New Hollywood: The Films of The American New Wave @ LAB111
Michael Jaco and Leo Zagami join forces to expose the dark truths behind Jeffrey Epstein's empire and the hidden sects that empowered him. From his connections to elite figures like Les Wexner and Steven Spielberg to the deeper links with the Illuminati, Mega Group, and Sabbatean Frankists, this discussion unpacks the hidden power networks that shaped one of the world's most sinister scandals. Leo draws from his extensive research and latest work to uncover the occult, political, and financial mechanisms that kept Epstein untouchable for years.

Tiburón contra Tintorera Para nadie es sorpresa que Tiburón, obra de Steven Spielberg, cumple 50 años en 2025. En Cinegarage hemos celebrado a la película desde hace mucho. Por eso, ahora nos sumamos a la fiesta desde un ángulo diferente. Nos centramos en una de las cientos de películas que, queriendo aprovechar la ola expansiva de Jaws, copiaron, imitaron, exageraron, destrozaron y luego armaron de vuelta lo que Spielberg hizo para bien del género de monstruos, de aventura, de acción y hasta de terror. En este podcast Cinegarage vamos a comparar los logros de Tintorera con los desaciertos de Tiburón… O al revés. Tintorera, escrita y dirigida por René Cardona Jr. (príncipe del cine serie B mexicano), es una peculiaridad en toda regla. Protagonizada por Andrés García y Hugo Stiglitz, tiene, creemos, todo para hacerle frente a uno de los mejores Spielbergs de la historia… O no. Para debatirlo invitamos a Elías Leonardo Salazar, mandamás del proyecto Cinéfilos en Apuros y amante, como nosotros, del cine popular. Tiburón y Tintorera lo son. Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Halloween everyone! Since we released The Long Walk podcast yesterday, we thought we'd give you guys a treat of some Poltergeist talk in this Halloween day, as Garrett's two podcast co-hosts still haven't done that film series with him, he had to get his love for Poltergeist out in some other way. Enter Poltergeist expert David Furtney! Earlier this year Garrett interviewed his friend David Furtney about his love and knowledge of the movie Poltergeist. Not just the first one, but the sequels and remake as well. The interview itself was, in our opinion, very good and insightful. The problem was there just didn't seem like an appropriate time to release said interview to you guys. We feel, October 31st is just as good a time as any. So here we go. If you love Poltergeist, then this is the podcast for you. Garrett and David go into EVERYTHING about the productions of them all. From rumors of a Poltergeist curse, to details concerning a lawsuit filed against producer/writer Steven Spielberg regarding who actually wrote it, to Spielberg himself getting turned down by Stephen King when he approached the author to write it (and what the reason why that didn't happen could be), to THAT rumor regarding who actually directed the 1982 original, to the troubled productions of parts 2 and 3, to the Sam Raimi produced 2014 remake, and ALL in between, David really takes us into the weeds as to how this series got made. Also, what made David love the series so much that he started a website about it (http://www.poltergeist.poltergeistiii.com), as well as what film in the franchise did he initially love most, and ssooo much more. We'd like to thank David for his patience and time, and we feel this interview is well worth the wait. Also, Garrett gives his opinion on how 2025's World Series is turning out, and then closes the show with some talk about the band Garbage and his attendance of a date on what is being hyped as their final North American headlining tour.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!Jurassic World: Rebirth is a visually impressive but narratively uneven return to the dinosaur blockbuster formula. Critics praise its thrilling set pieces, polished effects, and renewed focus on the prehistoric stars that made the franchise iconic. It's a big, loud, entertaining ride that captures some of the old magic, and for audiences simply craving dino mayhem, it largely delivers. The cast is solid, the action sequences are well-executed, and it feels more respectful of the original Jurassic Park tone than some recent installments.But the story itself doesn't quite evolve — it's weighed down by thin characters, predictable plotting, and a few unnecessary subplots. Many reviewers describe it as fun but forgettable, a movie that entertains in the moment yet doesn't leave a lasting impact. That's why it sits at around 50% on Rotten Tomatoes: half the critics enjoyed the spectacle, while the other half felt the franchise is stuck in the past. In short, Rebirth roars but doesn't soar!Remember to grab your 30 day free Audible trial, link is in the show, you will also support DMR!Support the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

On this edition of Parallax Views, we continue our annual Spooky Season series with a chilling deep dive into one of Hollywood's most infamous real-life tragedies — the Twilight Zone: The Movie helicopter crash. Journalist Steve Chain, author of Fly By Night: The Secret Story of Steven Spielberg, Warner Bros., and the Twilight Zone Deaths, joins the show to uncover the haunting true story that forever changed the film industry. Chain's explosive investigation revisits the 1982 disaster that claimed the lives of actor Vic Morrow and two children on set — and the five-year legal battle that followed. Was it a tragic accident, or was there a cover-up to protect some of Hollywood's most powerful names, including John Landis and Steven Spielberg? Chain pulls back the curtain on the shocking evidence, courtroom drama, and corporate maneuvering behind one of Tinseltown's darkest chapters. As part of Parallax Views' spooky season lineup, this episode isn't about ghosts or monsters — it's about real-life horror: power, negligence, and the human cost of spectacle. If you're fascinated by true crime, Hollywood scandals, media history, or the eerie intersection of fame and tragedy, you won't want to miss this one.
