"Because there was once a god who walked the Earth named Warren Oates." - Richard Linklater Friendly, feisty, fresh, and so-very funny, Bright Wall/Dark Room staff writer & contributing editor Travis Woods is as passionate about film as he is endearingly supportive of all who love it. The host & creator of producer Blake Howard's podcast Increment Vice (which took a look at Paul Thomas Anderson's INHERENT VICE one scene at a time), Travis has also contributed physical media commentary tracks &/or video essays for a few of his favorite films of all time, including the recent Imprint Films release of BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA starring his favorite actor (& raison d'être), Mr. Warren Oates. Joining me to preach the gospel of Oates in his thoughtful, sometimes philosophical, & always entertaining laid-back style, my Pandemic Movie Club buddy & I go deep on the films TWO-LANE BLACKTOP, THE HIRED HAND, DILLINGER, COCKFIGHTER, & BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA. Likely just the first installment on Oates since we stuck with the first half of the '70s, fans of the actor will undoubtedly flip for this feature-length conversation on one of both serious cinephiles' & great filmmakers from Peckinpah to Malick's most beloved screen presences.

The show begins as it always does. Scott got a job and he doesn't know how to feel about it. Luke would kill for a job he could skate at. Mike recalls a relative easy job he could skate by at for awhile. Of course rehab and failing others are involved. Cold call sales jobs, they're the worst, right?! Telemarketing comes up and supposedly one dude made 400 calls per hour or per day. It's unclear but neither are absurd. Luke witnessed embezzlement at a young age when he worked at Staples and then suddenly Mike's girlfriend pops in! How do you determine if a person looks like someone famous? The fellas dissect doppelgangers versus similar looking people. Scott has a serious issue with January Jones and her thousand yard stare. Luke says his favorite move is Oh Lucky Man, but Mike thought it was Two-Lane Blacktop. Of course Scott starts talking about Warren Oates. Luke loves Alan Price. There are some poor sound clips mixed in from the movie in the meantime. It turns out Trump and Fred Durst are very similar. Sam Harris nailed it perfectly a couple years ago about why Trump is so appealing to the every day person. CKY and Disengage The Simulator come up after Break Stuff starts a musical discussion. We have one email from Mr. Pink this week. He brings up the Mar-A-Lago raid which we hadn't thought of at all until the email. Olivia Newton-John died and Scott has to put the death of celebrities in context once more. Nobody cares says John Scott. We decided to close the show with Two Gunslingers by Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers. If any of this nonsense inspires you for better or for worse, email the show at isitsafepod@gmail.com

This week's Pop Screen is for people who like their cars fast, their movies mellow and their Californian singer-songwriters practically horizontal, as Aidan returns to the podcast to look at Monte Hellman's cult road movie Two-Lane Blacktop. A none-more-70s tale of dead-end lives on the open road, it owes something of its laid-back cool to its two lead actors: Laurel Canyon mainstay James Taylor and Beach Boys alumnus Dennis Wilson. It would be fair to say Aidan and Graham have differing opinions on this film, but you'll have to listen to the podcast to find out who's making the case for the defence. Along the way, there's space to delve into the short, sad life of their brilliant co-star Laurie Bird and praise the timeless class of Warren Oates and Harry Dean Stanton. Also, needless to say, Beach Boys superfan Graham explains what very specific thing Dennis brought to the legendary band, and which unlikely figure offered family therapy to the Wilson brothers...

After a quick reminder to vote on the 2 Fast 2 Forever Hall of Fame (cageclub.me/bracket), we open mail that lets us know we get cars wrong a lot before running into a traffic jam on a boat in the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (20:55). Then, Alex joins us to talk about Tokyo Drift, his favorite Fast and Furious movie (36:35). He talks about crafting the Drift Date sleepwave for Racer Trash, his main issue with where the franchise has gone (and the way to fix it), and a new plan to spread the Teriyaki Boyz gospel. We also talk about whether or not Fast & Furious is still an "underdog" at the box office, F&F inclusions in Racer Trash films, and an abundance of nail-based metaphors in Tokyo Drift. There's an exciting twist in the character game! List of non-F&F things we talk about (because there are a lot): Justin Lin's Annapolis, JJ Abrams in pitch meetings, Star Trek, the Twilight franchise, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Two-Lane Blacktop, Sunshine, Alex Garland, Jessie Buckley, David Cronenberg and Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, Lightyear (for some reason), Watcher and V/H/S/94 and Chloe Okuno, terrible Blu-ray menus on Universal discs, and 90s point-and-click computer games.

Highway Without Horizon: Monte Hellman's Two-Lane Blacktop This week, Mr. Chavez & I sit down to discuss a seminal film of the 1970s, Monte Hellman's Two-Lane Blacktop. Featuring musical icons, James Taylor and Brian Wilson (as, respectively, The Driver & The Mechanic), Laurie Bird, and the great character actor, Warren Oates as GTO. There's not a whole lot I can put into this description, but I will give my all . . . Ibrahim & I are thrilled to be discussing a cult classic that has only grown more powerful and enduring as the years have gone by. There's a whole lot packed into this story of a cross (or mid) country race between Taylor's The Driver, his co-pilot The Mechanic (Brian Wilson) and Warren Oates's GTO. An existential look at men and their need to bury themselves in car culture, speed, and mythology. We cover a lot of bases and are thrilled that you are joining us on this incredible ride. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com Many Thaks!

It's time for Season 5 folks.  It's time for regular cinema again.  It's time...for whatever they want to bring.  That's right.  The boys can watch and discuss any film, from any genre, this time around.  While Chris could definitely bring the rough content to your ears and eyeballs, he changed things up and offered a winner of an easygoing film for the season premiere.  Its about classic cars, drag racing, and youth counterculture in the early 70s.  And what a cool film it is.  The boys are discussing Monte Hellman's Two-Lane Blacktop.  Apologies all around for the tardiness in releasing the episode.  Next month, it's back to the normal releasing schedule.  No apologies for the awesome tangents...those are a gift.  So please sit back, relax and enjoy James Taylor in his only acting role.  Grab those beverages.We are on social media and so happy to watch a normal film again!Filmed Obscura: @FilmedObscura on TwitterJustin: @rustyman_51 on Twitter and IGChris:  @ChrisHerdter on TwitterTheme song composed by artist Zagi2 courtesy of Freesound.org.  :)

In 1971, the masterful director Monte Hellman headed out onto Route 66 with a script by Rudy Wurlitzer, a 55 Chevy, a Driver, a Mechanic, a Girl, an "Orbit Orange" Pontiac GTO and created a masterpiece. Join us for this completely unique film that only Monte Hellman could deliver. No race car driving or mechanic experience needed.

We're heading back to Jason Statham's first on-screen role with patron Lane Middleton's pick of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels! Before we talk about all things Guy Ritchie and "Bacon", Joe tells us how his dad went full Two-Lane Blacktop before we chat about the new episode of The Endgame (Season 1, Episode 2) and dive into the 2 Fast 2 Furious Minute (25:00) to see the down-and-back race kick off. Then, we dive into Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (39:00) and compare it to later Guy Ritchie movies, other 90s indie movies, and more. We talk about Statham's film debut, Sting, Tom Cruise, "Channing Table", and more issues with smells in movies. We also uncover the origin of why Deckard hates Hobbs. Joe asks himself, "What is Dracula?" and mistakes a movie shot in Pittsburgh for a British film.

Revisiting things a few years later can be perilous and More American Graffiti is maybe a very good example of this. Even lacking most of the creative team from the first movie American Graffiti still manages to spawn a weird alternate reality sequel to American Graffiti (1973) that comes out a year later called The Hollywood Knights. Knight Time is the Right Time Of the two, The Hollywood Knights is the much more beloved. In writing this episode description I finally cracked the code. I was shocked that an uncredited writer for Two-Lane Blacktop and Aloha, Bobby and Rose would end up making this movie however Floyd Mutrux worked at Second City and, realistically, The Hollywood Knights feels like a very produced graduation improv show where they find a story somewhere in there among all the antics. This movie 100% has Hot Rod credentials. I mentioned Project X and I had known it mostly as a Hot Rod Magazine car because Popular Hot Rodding was on the decline but it, indeed, was the car of Popular Hot Rodding for some time. All of these brands have been eaten up by Motortrend, it seems. The T bucket "rail job" was a cool and very authentic car that rarely shows up in movies. More Isn't Better I wish it was, though. There was some heart and thought put into this movie but I think that the hand of Lucas weighed heavily on the steering wheel of development and production. We can, in hindsight, see that it was inevitable as we've seen the saga of Star Wars but it's unfortunate that it had to be that way. Bill Norton didn't have a prolific credited writing career but was a journeyman TV director. He wouldn't necessarily show up on the list of people who would push back on that as More American Graffiti was at an early point in his directorial career. In a weird tie-in to car movies in general, Monte Hellman was assistant director to Bill Norton on Cisco Pike (1971). Milner was racing what we, today, call a "sling shot" and wearing those masks to not die from the nitromethane fumes was definitely an eye-catcher. Racing was wild back then but these racing scenes, for the most part, are very staged and slow. Other movies have done racing much better (even American Graffiti) but I guess they saved it up for that one last shot. Filming everything for Milner at the track makes it basically a "bottle episode" so I guess that was one way to save some money. Music Matters So the commonality here is the music. A ton of hits. An actual ton. More American Graffiti definitely goes into the later protest songs and hippy movement music while The Hollywood Knights stays in the pockets with The Beach Boys, Jan and Dean (the other The Beach Boys), The Four Seasons, The Chiffons, The Supremes, etc). I think THK shows a bit more range, culturally, than More American Graffiti (which very dedicated to Vietnam and its protests) especially when Newbomb Turk farts "Volare". Interestingly, and I hope it was intentional because I, in my head canon, really want this connection to be real and strong, The Hollywood Knights ends with Martha & The Vandellas' "Heat Wave" and More American Graffiti opens with Martha & The Vandellas' "Heat Wave". For the Audio Enthusiasts Used the WA-47 Jr (cardioid pattern) on the UA Volt 276 with the compressor and vintage modes on. No additional compression was used on the main part of the episode (there was limiting on the whole thing but it was fairly conservative). Stereo section was Rode M5s into a Zoom F6. There was severe wind noise so I cut out a lot of the low end. I did need to run a little bit of voice de-noise because I guess I wasn't speaking very loud and the noise levels around me were wild. The errata part was a Rode VideoMic Go II and I did get rid of some room tone on that one as well. Thanks for listening. Rate, like, and bell that smash for subscribe.

In episode 20 of Bangers & Classics, the boys try to figure out if E10 is the latest boy band from East London or just HMG's idea of a bad joke, James Taylor and a Beach Boy are outcooled by Warren Oates in the California sun, Martians take over a Citroën factory, the Vauxhall Nova pleads its case before a Burberry-clad Banger or Classic jury, James reveals the latest entries in his car spotter's notebook, David wears a disguise to the shops, and the safety (or otherwise) of old cars is discussed.

Two filmmakers' filmmakers, ones who both honed their craft in '60s low-budget B drive-thru movies before achieving gradual and undeniable acclaim, died this past week: Monte Hellman and Richard Rush. I'm joined by Ted Haycraft to discuss Hellman's most celebrated film and, arguably, Rush's most interesting one. On this episode we discuss:- how Two-Lane was greenlit in the wake of Easy Rider, only to be abandoned by the studio on release and for decades after;- its European vibe as a race movie where no one wants to win;- the chiseled minimalism of its screenplay by Rudy Wulitzer;- Warren Oates' rambling, engaged performance;- and Hellman's varied resume, including everything from RoboCop to Head to Reservoir Dogs to an added prologue for the network television premiere of A Fistful of Dollars in 1977.Also:- If Richard Rush invented the technique of racking focus;- how Getting Straight is depressingly still relevant today;- my seesawing views on this admittedly literate film over repeated viewings;- and whether or not the movie is speaking for itself through Harry (Elliott Gould) when he's yelling at women who talk back to him.Haycraft is film critic for Evansville's WFIE-14 and co-hosts Cinema Chat on its Midday show. He can also be found on Cinema Chat's Facebook page.Two-Lane Blacktop is not currently streaming or available on VOD. Physical media is available from Criterion.Getting Straight is available on VOD, with physical media is available from Sony.

Your boys Mike, Matt, Scott and Luke are back for more of the top-notch nonsense that you crave. The guys stroll down memory lane back to the 2000s as they listen to David Cross rip apart the issues of that era. Scott hates Marvel and doesn't think it's cool to watch wrestling as an adult. Ryan Gosling is getting old and his best work is yet to come still, according to Matt. Do you still own VHS copies? Luke is looking to buy the Criterion edition of Two Lane Blacktop. Mike shares his cherished Oliver Stone collection with the audience while also giving everybody a crypto currency update. Even though David Foster Wallace is cancelled, the End of the Tour ignites the truth behind why many males had Infinite Jest on their nightstand. Blind Melon wrote a song about somebody falling off of the esteemed Detroit concert venue St. Andrew's Hall. Luke and Mike go back in time to recall the power that Matchbox 20 and The Barenaked Ladies held over college party goers in 1998-99. We learn from Matt what Jangle Pop is. Enjoy the new experience. Finally, will Miguel Cabrera hit 500 home runs and 3000 hits by the end of the season? Give us your thoughts on any of this nonsense by emailing us at isitsafepod@gmail.com

Episode's a little on the shorter side and a little low energy because I felt like shit most of the week but hey, that's okay, we still watched some nice movies. This week's movies: Tom and Jerry (2021) The Equalizer (2014) Two-Lane Blacktop (1971) Wind River (2017) Sukiyaki Western Django (2007) Goon: Last of the Enforcers (2017) Game of Death (1978)

An experiment in what constitutes a movie finds James Taylor and Dennis Wilson partnered in a cross country race that resolves (or doesn't) sometime after the last reel burns up.

You can jump in by visiting www.patreon.com/kfshow. Here's the Dukes Review: In our last show Finnegan got what he had always wanted: A review of Two Lane Blacktop. This time, it's Kibbe's turn for joy filled senselessness; a Star Trek the Next Generation crossover episode with the Dukes! Well, not quite that, but close-ish. This is the first episode of Season 4 of the Dukes of Hazzard and the guest star is none other than Johanthan Frakes, Commander Riker himself. Commander Riker plays the part of a nephew to Boss Hogg, and as a Hogg relative Commander Riker must steal and connive his way through life. It's in his blood. Anyway, he fulfills his Star Fleet destiny by counterfeiting money, putting it into boxes of "grits", and then falling into love with Daisy Duke and getting her to marry him to avoid the eventual damning legal testimony issue he'll have in court when he gets caught. It fails, Daisy is shunned, the General Lee jumps, and Riker gets beamed back up to the Enterprise (not true, but wouldn't have that been super awesome)?  MeUndies is also back to sponsor this episode...and just in comfort ball cuddling time!

Before I give the movie review, I'm happy to announce that we are now into our second week of being LIVE on Patreon! Thank you so much to those of you who chose to support the show directly, and we promise to use all funds to continue building the show you want and the one we love to make. We have also figured out what we're going to do for Patreon supporters and you'll hear about in an upcoming episode.  You can go hear to add to the mix: www.patreon.com/kfshow.  Thank you again!! In this episode of the show we finally reviewed the movie Two Lane Blacktop, a movie that Finnegan's been wanting to hit since we started. Without a doubt this is the last piece of the cinematic puzzle that makes Mike...well, Mike. It's a movie that has clearly influenced him greatly not because it's a fantastic comedy or anything, but because it's about two guys running the country in a homebuilt gasser '55 Chevy. In their lives that's all there is, it's all they need, and all they want. Or is it? Along with way they pick up a random hitchhiker girl who (like the two guys) has no apparent backstory and no dreams going forward. They race an older guy - cross country - in a '70 GTO Judge who is as philosophical as he is total crackpot wacko. There's a ton a dialogue in this movie, yet there's nearly none at the exact same time. This was done in the era of movie making where sometimes the plot and meaning was a secret known only to the writer and director...and Finnegan freaking loves it. In fact he loves it so much that his favorite car ever is a '55 Chevy gasser named Blasphemi. Kibbe has decided that the psyche of Finnegan is made up of a very simple equation, and once you understand it you'll have unlocked the key to Mike's brain, soul, and car: Two Lane Blacktop + Better Off Dead + The Dukes of Hazzard + Spaceballs = Mike Finnegan And finally, Stamps.com is back in this episode as a show sponsor!
