This week on Forgotten Cinema, Forgotten Summer continues with "War of the Worlds", Steven Spielberg's intense adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic.After covering "Flight of the Navigator", discussing "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in their Lead Up series, releasing a Patreon-exclusive episode on "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", and reviewing "Disclosure Day", it only felt right for the Mikes to tackle another one of Spielberg's unforgettable alien films.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field love "War of the Worlds". From Spielberg's masterful direction to the relentless pacing and unforgettable set pieces, the film remains just as gripping today as it was upon release. Even after multiple viewings, Butler finds himself on the edge of his seat throughout much of the movie.Of course, the Mikes still have a few nitpicks. Cruise's portrayal of Ray as an almost unbelievably irresponsible father feels exaggerated during the first half of the film, though both agree it ultimately pays off as his character grows over the course of the story. Butler also revisits one of the classic criticisms of the story itself: how could an incredibly advanced alien civilization spend (at least!) centuries preparing to invade Earth without accounting for the planet's microscopic dangers?One of the film's highlights for both Mikes is Tim Robbins' unforgettable performance, which leads to one of the movie's most tense and memorable sequences. They also discuss the controversial ending that has divided audiences for years. While both are ultimately satisfied with it, Butler understands why some viewers struggle with the family's reunion. However, the Mikes point out that both the ending and the aliens' ultimate fate come directly from H.G. Wells' original novel.Thrilling, suspenseful, and packed with unforgettable moments, "War of the Worlds" remains one of Spielberg's finest modern blockbusters and a standout entry in the alien invasion genre.What do you think of "War of the Worlds"? Let us know in the comments below!

Send us Fan MailThe wild thing about War Of The Worlds (2005) is how quickly it earns our trust and how loudly it tests it later. We sit down on Heat Watching and walk through Spielberg's alien invasion thriller beat by beat, starting with that terrifying, razor-tight opening stretch where ordinary people do the only “heroic” thing available: make one decent choice, then make the next one fast. The sound design, the crowd behavior, the dust-covered aftermath, and the sense of public systems failing all feel brutally real, and we talk about why the movie's 9/11 allegory still hits.Then we get into the stuff that makes us argue. Why give Ray a specific job that never pays off? Why does the timeline feel vague when the movie needs us to feel the long grind of survival? And what is the son's arc actually doing besides forcing a few plot turns? We also talk performances: Tom Cruise is surprisingly great as a messy, selfish dad, while Dakota Fanning runs circles around almost everyone and keeps the emotion honest even when the script gets shaky.Finally, we go straight for the big debate: the basement detour with Tim Robbins, the rushed sprint to the finish, and a climax that hinges on the common cold instead of a character-driven payoff. If you love Spielberg, disaster movies, alien invasion films, or film criticism that's equal parts admiration and frustration, you'll have opinions here.

From the unforgettable lightning storm that signals the beginning of the invasion to the first emergence of the towering alien Tripods, Spielberg crafts one of the most intense disaster films ever made. We react to the iconic Tripod horn, the ferry attack, the plane crash sequence, the devastating destruction of humanity, Ray's struggle to protect his children, and the terrifying basement scenes with Tim Robbins' paranoid Harlan Ogilvy. The film stars Tom Cruise (Mission: Impossible, Top Gun: Maverick) as Ray Ferrier, Dakota Fanning (Man on Fire, The Equalizer 3) as Rachel Ferrier, Justin Chatwin (Shameless, Dragonball Evolution) as Robbie Ferrier, Tim Robbins (The Shawshank Redemption, Mystic River) as Harlan Ogilvy, and Miranda Otto (The Lord of the Rings, 24) as Mary Ann. Based on H.G. Wells' classic science fiction novel and directed by Steven Spielberg (Jurassic Park, Jaws, Saving Private Ryan), War of the Worlds blends blockbuster spectacle with genuine sci-fi horror, delivering some of the most memorable alien invasion imagery ever put on screen.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes take on "Dead Man Walking", the powerful drama directed by Tim Robbins.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field really like this film, praising its thoughtful approach to the very difficult topic of the death penalty. Rather than forcing a clear stance, "Dead Man Walking" presents the death penalty in a balanced and human way, allowing the audience to wrestle with the moral questions alongside the characters.The film is elevated by strong direction, striking cinematography, and especially the performances from Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn. Both deliver deeply emotional and nuanced work that anchors the story and gives weight to every moment.With very little to criticize, "Dead Man Walking" stands as a compelling, well-crafted film that remains impactful and worth revisiting.

In this episode of the show we are discussing the seminal Marvel movie, the 1986 Howard the Duck. Over the course of our sprawling conversation you will hear us talk about the complex genesis of this movie going all the way back to George Lucas and his love of the comic book upon which this movie was based on, the trials and tribulations of putting the production together and the self-fulfilling prophecy of how Howard the Duck needed to appeal to everyone to make up for its gargantuan production budget, but instead it alienated nearly all viewers. We also talk about the ripple effects of E.T., Lea Thompson's character engaging in a romantic relationship with duck from outer space, Tim Robbins doing a Donald Duck impression and how the movie this complex failed to write a compelling villain, thus setting the template for many mediocre blockbusters to follow.

We're dropping our first listener pick of 2026, and it comes from twenty-five years ago, courtesy of Listener Bryan. In 2001, actor-turned-director Peter Howitt released his sophomore film (following 1998's Sliding Doors), a techno-thriller with a hot young cast including Ryan Phillippe, Claire Forlani, and Rachael Leigh Cook. In the film, tech mogul Gary Winston (played by Tim Robbins) aims to revolutionize global communication, but he might be literally killing the competition to get there. The film boasts set designs by Catherine Hardwicke and a rocking score by Don Davis, but it just didn't click with audiences. So while the film itself crashed at the box office upon release in January 2001, it did set Listener Bryan on his course towards a career in tech. In an age when giant software companies still rule our lives - and spy on us - does a film about a giant software company spying on and ruling lives still ring true? Or does Antitrust belong in the Recycle Bin?

Arconada entrevista a la directora que cuenta cómo prepara una serie en París con Tim Robbins mientras reivindica un cine auténtico y sin ataduras. La directora Isabel Coixet presenta su película Tres adioses, una obra que nace del libro póstumo de relatos de la escritora italiana Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole. El filme explora con crudeza y ternura la fragilidad humana a través de momentos vitales marcados por la ruptura sentimental y la enfermedad incurable, reflejando una madurez que invita a dejar de lado las preocupaciones banales para centrarse en lo verdaderamente importante. Durante la charla, Coixet destaca la elección de una Roma auténtica, alejada de los circuitos turísticos y la pomposidad de La gran belleza. Al rodar en barrios como Trastevere o Testaccio, la cineasta busca capturar la esencia viva de la ciudad y la vulnerabilidad de sus protagonistas, encabezados por la actriz Alba Rohrwacher, cuyo trabajo define como un iceberg de emociones contenidas que sostienen la veracidad del guion. Coixet respeta la intensidad de la autora, aunque su enfoque cinematográfico se centra más en la superación personal y la libertad individual, logrando que la cinta conecte con audiencias globales por su capacidad de conmover sin artificios. Finalmente, la directora revela sus próximos pasos, incluyendo una serie rodada en París para el canal Arte, que cuenta con la participación de Tim Robbins. Este nuevo proyecto, que combina el drama con tintes de comedia, refuerza su identidad como una ciudadana del mundo que sigue en busca de historias capaces de trastocar al espectador, manteniéndose siempre fiel a un estilo personal que rechaza el bullshit de la industria.

Things only escalate from there, including an Ethan Hawke missed connection that still haunts her soul.Trae shares his own catalogue of humiliation, from confidently announcing “I was on Bill Maher” to Tim Robbins with no follow-up, to screaming his friend GABE's name across a room full of A-list celebrities, to destroying his kids' new drone in front of an elderly father-in-law who immediately climbs a tree to retrieve it while silently judging him.Along the way, Jameela recounts freezing into a full-body malfunction while meeting Whitney Cummings, and why sometimes the worst part of a sympathetic interaction is knowing you'll definitely have to see that person again.No villains.

True Crime was the 94th-highest grossing movie of 1999, grossing just $17 million on a $50 million budget with a fairly limited release. Starring and directed by Clint Eastwood, True Crime was largely forgotten and remains overlooked most likely due to its release at what can be described as Eastwood's most prolonged artistic lull in the mid 1990s, starting with 1997's Absolute Power and Midnight in the Garden of Eden, 2000's Space Cowboys, and 2002's Blood Work. That lull would end with 2003's acclaimed Mystic River, which earned Oscars for both Sean Penn and Tim Robbins as well as Best Director and Best Picture nominations for Eastwood. But True Crime is still an interesting entry on Eastwood's resume, exploring many of the themes of injustice and moral ambiguity that he frequently explores in his work. So does the similarly-themed 2024 film Juror #2, which Eastwood directed in his mid-90s. So this week we're talking about them both, and joining is us is Aaron from the podcast Hit Factory.

This psychological horror thriller from director Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction, Indecent Proposal, Flashdance, Unfaithful) takes us through the horrific journey of Vietnam vet Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) who is now working as a postman in New York City and starts seeing various horrific visions wherever he goes....could they be demons?  He doesn't know but they start getting worse and worse, even blending into his everyday life....could they be premonitions resulting from his PTSD?  Neither he knows nor his girlfriend (Elizabeth Pena) and the only person who can apparently provide him with some comfort is his personal chiropractor played by Oscar-nominee Danny Aiello.  Eventually Jacob does get more answers as to where these visions might be coming from but those only result in more questions.....this mind-bending tale garnered a following throughout the '90's as a result of some genuinely disturbing imagery featured throughout.  It also features a pretty stacked cast including Matt Craven, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Jason Alexander, Eriq LaSalle, Ving Rhames, and Macauley Culkin.WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE PORTRAYED VIA MOVIE CLIPSHost: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSee below for a link to an extended deleted scene discussed in this review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hkLhMuzk3E&t=415sSend us a textSupport 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/

The Munsons take on the towering, eclectic career of Tim Robbins—actor, director, activist, and, depending on who you ask, an unofficially blacklisted MLB Hall of Fame figure. We explore Robbins' deep New York sports fandom—Mets, Rangers, and maybe Jets?—and revisit his Quarterback Princess days to assess whether he's believable as a 6'5 high school QB. James weighs in with a definitive take on whether Robbins could ever convincingly pull off a frat bro, while the rest of the crew debates if he carries enough charisma to be a true leading man. We trace a recurring theme in his filmography: playing the broken husband, and dive into his Oscar-winning turn in Mystic River—should he have won over two former Munsons? Plus, we're all surprisingly intrigued by the dystopian mystery series Silo on AppleTV, and wonder if it might be Robbins' next great chapter. How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.
