This week, we discuss the long-awaited FRANKENSTEIN film produced, written and directed by Guillermo del Toro. After a short theatrical run, you can watch the film exclusively on Netflix.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is operating in an unprecedented way during US President Donald Trump’s second term. The agency has existed for over 20 years, but now operates as a masked force. Imposters posing as agents have committed crimes such as kidnapping and sexual assault. The FBI has urged ICE officers to unmask and identify themselves. How did the agency get here?

Join Sis and Big Pops for a fun, fun talk about one of the things we love most—Nerd Stuff. We discuss our fav bits of nerd news: Guillermo del Toro's movie Frankenstein, Oceans 14 being green-lit, the Dog surviving in the new horror film “Good boy, ” action figures from Masters of the Universe and Transformers, Vin Diesel The Pacifier, the last Fast and Furious movie might not happen and neither may Avatar 4, Humble Bundle of Lego games, Spiderman 4 with Tobey McGuire, and In Your Dreams Netflix kids movie trailer. For bingeing, Big Pops has been watching The Manning Cast- Monday Night Football, Mavel Zombies, LOTR, and has been listening to The Hobbit and reading Walking Dead Compendium. Sis has watched her husband play the game “Tunic,” as well as Kara and Nate, Inception, and Gravity Falls. Then, Pops shared his pull list! This week, he introduces us to Absolute Evil Issue 1 by DC (and Justice League The Omega Act Special); The Punisher Issue 1 by Marvel Red Band, and The Rocket Fellars Issue 9 by Image. His new number 1, or should we say issue 0, is the reboot of The Department of Truth by Image. His Book of the Week is Star Trek: The Last Starship Issue 1 by IDW. And last but not least, we review Over the Garden Wall.

Several new movies are out both in theaters and at home, and I'm here to talk all about them. From Edgar Wright's "The Running Man" to Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein" and Ruben Fleischer's "Now You See Me: Now You Don't", there is so much to discuss. Which movie was surprisingly underwhelming? Are the magicians in "Now You See Me" actually magic? Was "Frankenstein" missing some nudity? Tune in now to hear it all...

This week's brief episode finds Brandon and Lorin reviewing the Netflix film and Oscar contender, Frankenstein. Directed by Guillermo del Toro, Mary Shelley's classic is retold with Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi in the lead roles. Elsewhere, we review the other potential Best Picture contenders and recap the latest season of The Vince Staples Show.

Sticking closer to Mary Shelley's novel than most other adaptations, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is the culmination of a lifelong dream. His vision echoes the gothic maximalism of Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, starring Jacob Elordi as a sympathetic interpretation of Frankenstein's Creature. But does this movie measure up to GDT's past hits? Steffan and Gavia have mixed feelings, delving into the film's characterization choices, production values, and relationship with the novel.

Is he hot or is he just 6'5 and made up of various large men's most beautiful body parts? Is he hot or just played by Jacob Elordi in 10 hours of prosthetics on wobbly fawn legs and with a glimmer of innocence and curiosity in his eyes? On a new Spooky Tuesday, we're talking about Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (2025), and we're asking the important questions, like who drinks milk? And what *is* the meaning of circles? Join us on our latest episode as we head up to the Arctic Circle to explore the nature of life and death, butterfly seductions, and generational cycles of trauma.References: Tour of Victor's Lab: https://youtu.be/JRiLMssdaco?si=1klpMP_A20R4p8K0Color Coding: https://youtu.be/E_Ys8Mpl0BU?si=kMNszcAjooEMPwj6https://youtube.com/shorts/1J6lvmU7NZc?si=S3IGPgeIRaEoza0XBreaking down the scene where The Creature and Elizabeth first meet: https://youtu.be/ngOJpHi4eR0?si=NJ-wxvvGFN3p407shttps://youtu.be/zYV3a3VMC3E?si=LkftHNGq8sDyk84Ahttps://youtu.be/zYV3a3VMC3E?si=tXGBxDvuVDDd9KOkhttps://ew.com/frankenstein-guillermo-del-toro-mia-goth-break-down-scene-when-elizabeth-creature-meet-11845438https://defector.com/guillermo-del-toros-frankenstein-is-flawed-because-his-creature-is-nothttps://www.elle.com/culture/movies-tv/a69286597/frankenstein-netflix-movie-vs-book-differences-explained/https://www.artforum.com/columns/guillermo-del-toro-frankenstein-film-tyler-dean-1234737781/https://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3914069/10-easter-eggs-in-guillermo-del-toros-frankenstein/https://www.netflix.com/tudum/features/frankenstein-jacob-elordi-makeup-monster-creationSpark Notes: https://www.sparknotes.com/lit/frankenstein/summary/https://medievalmilanetc.wordpress.com/2012/08/25/st-bartholomew-flayed/https://www.berniewrightson.com/galleries/frankenstein/Paige Michalchuk: https://www.instagram.com/p/DQxX2H1CTql/

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (2025) is a visually stunning adaptation of the original novel by Mary Shelley. Del Toro turns the well known horror story of Frankenstein into a romantic, emotionally absorbing fairy tale. He softens the grotesqueness of The Creature by giving him tenderness and benevolence, angling the perspective to heighten audiences' sense of compassion and even relatability toward an individual who does not earn the abandonment and cruelty given to him.

This week we serve up some small batch film review with one of the year's most anticipated films and our first time talking about Guillermo del Toro with Frankenstein. Journey with us as we discuss this new adaptation of the classic Mary Shelley novel along with all the design elements that really make this film stand out. And what about the creature himself and his unique design? Is this a modern horror/dramatic masterpiece or is it too dense for its own good? So pour some rye, grab your lab coat, and get ready for an age of Gods and Monsters from Mr. del Toro. Cheers!

It's a Frankenstein special on our latest episode of Soundtracking, as first Guillermo del Toro and then composer Alexandre Desplat join us to discuss their collaboration on the Netflix reimagining. Starring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz, Frankenstein is a beautiful interpretation of the classic tale, brought to life by Guillermo's characteristic stylistic flair. As ever, Alexandre's score is the perfect compliment.

It's a tale as old as time… well, as old as 1818 at least, since that's when Mary Shelley's novel was first published. And after multiple film adaptations, Guillermo del Toro is now putting his stamp on this classic monster story. Tune in as we're joined by Philip Faiss, host of Netflix & Phil, to break down Netflix's “Frankenstein” — from the many different layers behind this narrative, to the ways del Toro changed the source material, and of course, how Jacob Elordi can be sexy even as The Creature.Check out Netflix & Phil on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@philoween_trends

Jonathan Greene sits down with Chris Grenzig, founder of JAG Property Management and JAG Capital Partners, a vertically integrated multifamily firm focused on Jacksonville and Orlando. Chris walks through his evolution from working at Toro to moving markets, taking on a 16-unit value-add deal, and learning property and construction management by doing. He and Jonathan explore what it's been like to operate through COVID, explosive rent growth, and then a sharp pullback in Florida. As the conversation unfolds, Chris breaks down how he approached that first 16-unit acquisition, the role his prior asset management experience played, and why local market knowledge became his unfair advantage. He speaks candidly about Florida's recent "perfect storm" of falling rents, rising insurance, and higher interest rates, and how those forces have impacted his portfolio and his investors. Chris and Jonathan also get tactical on out-of-state investing, the limits of BRRRR and flipping in today's environment, and the differences between property management and true asset management. Listeners will come away with a grounded understanding of what it really looks like to buy, renovate, refinance, and hold in a shifting market—and how to keep investor trust when the numbers don't go as planned. Chris's experience navigating tough cycles in Florida offers real-world lessons on conservative underwriting, staying honest with investors, and building a property management business that serves both accidental landlords and more sophisticated owners. In this episode, you will hear: How Chris transitioned from working at Toro to moving to Jacksonville and taking on his own 16-unit value-add property Why he chose to self-manage and oversee construction on a deal he'd never managed at that level before How COVID, rent drops, rising insurance, and interest rate hikes combined into a "perfect storm" for Florida multifamily Why local market knowledge and conservative underwriting matter more than ever in today's environment The realities and limitations of flipping and BRRRR strategies in higher-rate, higher-cost markets What investors should look for in a property manager—and why asset management and property management are not the same thing Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

Editor - Evan Schiff ACE Frankenstein editor Evan Schiff ACE first began his journey as an assistant editor on Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth (2006). Over the next, nearly two decades, Evan would establish himself as an action movie editor to be reckoned with.  He would flex his cutting chops on films like John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017), John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019) and Bob Odenkirk's action debut, Nobody (2021).  Evan would also drop by the MCU to cut The Marvels (2023).  But to hear Evan tell it, it was hardly his skills as an action editor that would prompt Del Toro to hire his former assistant editor to cut Frankenstein. Produced, written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, and based on the 1818 novel by Mary Shelley, Frankenstein stars Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, and Christoph Waltz. The film follows the life of egotistical scientist Victor Frankenstein whose experiment in creating new life results in dangerous consequences when his monstrous creation comes to life. EVAN SCHIFF ACE (In Evan's own words...) Originally from Syracuse, NY, I started my career in the film industry at the age of 16, between my junior and senior years of high school, with an internship at Stan Winston Studio (now Legacy EFX). After graduating from high school and being accepted into USC's film production program, SWS hired me back to do tech support as their Systems Administrator and eventually their in-house VFX Editor. I worked there part-time for all four years of college and full-time for one year after. While at USC, I got bit by the editing bug. I found that, even more than creature or visual effects, I loved sitting in the editing bay for hours on end putting my student films together. So a year after graduation, and five years after starting my job at Stan Winston's, I started to pursue editing full-time. It was slow at first, but eventually I got my first few jobs as an assistant editor, and things took off from there.

Visual effects veteran Dennis Berardi joins the podcast to discuss the resurrection of his legendary studio, Mr. X, and his latest collaboration with Guillermo del Toro on Frankenstein. Dennis shares the technical and artistic challenges behind the film, detailing how his team blended massive physical builds with digital artistry to create the film's "invisible" effects. From creating expansive Arctic icescapes in a Toronto parking lot to blowing up 20-foot "bigature" miniatures for the climactic tower sequence, Dennis explains how they achieved an operatic scale while maintaining the emotional intimacy of Del Toro's father-son narrative. The conversation also navigates the complex business of visual effects, as Dennis recounts the dramatic story of selling Mr. X to Technicolor and his subsequent fight to reclaim the brand and IP after the parent company's collapse. He outlines his philosophy for rebuilding Mr. X as a boutique, filmmaker-focused studio that values artistry over volume. Finally, Dennis, Chris, and Daniel speculate on the future of the industry, discussing the impact of AI, the fracturing of the VFX market, and why relationship-driven, smaller shops may be the key to sustainable high-end filmmaking.

“It's alive, IT'S ALIVE!” famous words uttered by 1931's Dr. Frankenstein left an indelible mark on the heart and mind of director extraordinaire Guillermo del Toro. In his 2025 Netflix film FRANKENSTEIN, del Toro puts his own unique brand on the classic tale. Coupled with performances from Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz this version of the monster tale may be the best since the original with Boris Karloff. Step into madness with as we discuss a modern masterpiece!

Predator: Badlands shouldn't be this good. MonteCristo and DoA went in expecting another forgettable franchise sequel and came out calling it the best Predator film since 1987. In this episode of Nerd Legion, the hosts break down how Dan Trachtenberg turned a dormant IP into a bold, emotional, and surprisingly funny sci-fi blockbuster. They discuss the film's unexpected focus on the Predator's culture and honor code, Elle Fanning's dual performance, and how the movie manages to feel both classic and completely new. From the inventive world-building to the subtitled alien language and practical effects, Predator: Badlands proves that simple stories told well still hit the hardest. The conversation also detours into Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, the curse of bloated superhero films, and why Hollywood keeps forgetting how to make tight, self-contained action movies.

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast would surely deserve to get a full fat five points from Greg Davies, the Taskmaster himself, as Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and John Nugent apply themselves wholeheartedly (some more wholeheartedly than others, it must be said) to deciding which Taskmaster contestant has appeared in the best film. Then, the podteam take a look at the week's movie news and, in a bumper reviews section, cast their eyes over Edgar Wright's The Running Man, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Ruben Fleischer's Now You See Me: Now You Don't, Julia Ducournau's Alpha, Gurinder Chadha's Christmas Karma, and James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg. Three of those movies provide this week's guests, as Edgar Wright drops by the podbooth to natter with Chris about The Running Man, and meeting Stephen King; [21:43 - 33:05 approx] Now You Three Me's Isla Fisher and Rosamund Pike talk magic and manky accents, again with Chris; [56:16 - 1:09:05 approx] and Michael Shannon talks Nuremberg and (mostly) R.E.M., also with Chris.

We've covered most of Wes Anderson's recent output, but we missed The Phoenician Scheme when it released in theaters. So we wanted to rectify that in between our holiday coverage, and give this espionage/business caper its proper due. Here we talk about the overly complicated scheme, Benicio del Toro as frontman, the phoenix rising of Michael Cera, and a whole lot more as we try to parse the symmetrical orientation of Anderson's film. We're also drinking Ommegang's Ommegeddon, a Brett Saison Ale!Approximate timeline0:00-12:00 Intro12:00-20:00 Beer talk20:00-end The Phoenician SchemeNext up: we head into Thanksgiving with a look at 2021's Black Friday!
