Can men truly ever be friends? This is the question Jett Loe asks of his co-host, (and possible friend), Gareth Higgins on this, the 300th episode of The Film Talk. In this ep male friendship is discussed in the context of the new, excoriating satire from the makers of Succession, Mountainhead, and the hilarious Tim Robinson star-vehicle Friendship. Along the way Loe and Higgins reference poet Ralph Waldo Emerson, artist Joseph Beuys, the films Robocop and Starship Troopers and much more. Enjoy.

Josh is joined by recurring guest Gage Eggleston and Animation/Disney Correspondent Joe Morgan for a surprisingly logical double feature. First, they discuss “Friendship” (Beginning-51:35) and how Tim Robinson's style of humor translated to a feature-length film, the extent to which their theater experiences might have dictated how much they laughed, the ways Gage processed the film much differently than Joe and Josh while liking it just as much and much more! Then, Joe and Josh discuss the latest Disney live-action remake, “Lilo & Stitch” (51:36-End). They discuss which changes from the source material worked and which did not, the benefits of filming on location in Hawaii, some of the comedic moments that worked best, the performances from new faces such as Maia Kealoha and Sydney Agudong as well as familiar ones like Billy Magnussen and Zach Galifianakis and much more!

The Beers are back in Queens for another episode, united in friendship, and joined by a six pack of Summer Ale from Five Boroughs Brewing Co based in Brooklyn (0:31). To start off the show, The Beers dive right into their biggest gripe with going to the movies nowadays (1:48), followed by a rundown of trailers for upcoming movies set to release in 2025, which include THE NAKED GUN remake, I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER remake, THE LIFE OF CHUCK, THE MATERIALISTS, and EDDINGTON (4:57). Headlining the episode, Dylan offers an introduction of Tim Robinson, or as we like to call him, “the king of aggressive stupidity” (9:36), setting up The Beers review of FRIENDSHIP, which stars Robinson and Paul Rudd in what will likely go down as the most cringe comedy to hit theaters this year (14:36). The Beers then spill their go-to streamers in 2025 and recap the evolution of HBO into HBO MAX, again (27:28). To wrap it up, a dirty dozen of Letterboxd reviews featuring some comedy classics that may have been forgotten by most, but are timeless to many (38:36).Sip back and enjoy!Got a movie, TV series, or doc we should talk about?

This week, the boys head back to 2007 to spin another Roger Deakins film, “No Country For Old Men”, currently streaming on Paramount+. While other shows have covered the film, we shoot from the hip and discuss how it felt to re-watch it and what it means to us. F those other stuffy critic narcs. The cinematographer from Dave's homeland had a helluva a year with three award-winning films, this one winning Best Picture at the Oscars, and cementing the Coen Brothers as industry elites, much to their Chigurh (that's a movie joke). Yeah, it beat “There Will Be Blood”. We talk about it a bit. John also opens with his “MI” and “Friendship” takes. Grab a beer and hear our thoughts. Our phone number is 646-484-9298. It accepts texts or voice messages.  0:00 Intro; 4:29 John's mini-review of “MI: The Final Reckoning” and “Friendship”; 14:52 Gripes; 17:47 2007 Year in Review; 38:52 Films of 2007: “No Country For Old Men”; 1:38:52 What You Been Watching?; 1:47:34 Next Episode Teaser Additional Cast/Crew: Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Roger Deakins, Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Kelly Macdonald, Woody Harrelson, Stephen Root, Barry Corbin, Tess Harper, Gerret Dillahunt, Gene Jones, Scott Rudin, Paul Rudd, Tim Robinson, Hosts: Dave Green, Jeff Ostermueller, John Say Edited & Produced by Dave Green.

Ian Hendry, John Fraser, Patrick Wymark, and Yvonne Furneaux appear in supporting roles.”Also discussed: B.O., Hacks, Oslo August 31st, Joaquim Trier, A24 vs Neon, Mission: Impossible, Tim Robinson, The Watcher, the Four B Movement, and more. NEXT WEEK: The Ugly Stepsister (2025)  Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://twitter.com/BloodhausPodhttps://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/ Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://bsky.app/profile/joshuaconkel.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

Two theater movies this week! First, after the intro Chris and Neil get awkward and cringey with Friendship starring Tim Robinson, Paul Rudd, Kate Mara and Jack Dylan Glazer. Then, after a jam packed news segment, the guys getting to doing some world saving action packed stuff as they talk in maybe"final" Mission Impossible movie- Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning starring the inimitable Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Simon Pegg, Angela Bassett, Ving Rhames, I could go on and on. This is thing is stacked.  Is Friendship worth nurturing to see? Is Mission Impossible worth falling out of a plane to see?

It's Friendship Week here at Breakfast All Day. And we've come to cause delightful and adorable chaos over the long holiday. If you're looking for our review of the new "Mission: Impossible," we did that in last week's episode. First, we discuss the new "Lilo & Stitch," which is an awful lot like the old "Lilo & Stitch." Disney is once again redoing their animated favorites as live-action features. We're mixed on it, but families will enjoy it, and the casting is great. In theaters. Then we catch up with the cringe comedy of "Friendship" from A24. Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd co-star as neighbors who become unlikely pals really quickly, then have a really ugly falling out. We don't agree on how well this movie works. It's been playing in limited release but expands nationwide this weekend. Finally, we have our first Movie News LIVE! in a few weeks, now that things are getting back to normal for Christy, health-wide. Lots to talk about including the Cannes Film Festival, Alex Garland's "Elden Ring" movie, Michael Bay's "Skibidi Toilet" movie, trailers for Darren Aronofsky's "Caught Stealing" and "The Bear" S4, Billy Joel's sad medical diagnosis and more. We're hoping to get back to these livestreams more consistently now, so stay tuned. Thanks for sharing some of your time with us! * Christy is loving the latest limited-edition, non-alcoholic brew from Athletic Brewing Co., where she's proud to be an ambassador: Aftershift, which is light-bodied with notes of lime leaf and yuzu.

This week on Second Helpings, Jackie and MJ reminisce about the classic "Daddy's Deli", MJ has a brief "Who's the Bitch?" in regards to Hilaria Baldwin, then it's on to the new season of  "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" and the embarrassment and sadness that's surely in store for the children in the series as they grow. Jackie gets into Season 2 of "Andor" to MJ's delight, Jackie breaks down how slippy sloppy the new "Dune" films are, HBO Max is HBO Max...again, TLC's new show on poly relationships is baaaaad, and Jackie encourages MJ to get onto "The Rehearsal" train. Tim Robinson delights with "Friendship", and MJ gives a breakdown of "Four Seasons" to Jackie who's throwin' out the totally not insane "Final Destination: Bloodlines" plus even more in this week's Second Helpings!Want even more Page 7?
