This week the Bad Dads take a pounding with The Bleeder (2016), the Liev Schreiber-led biopic of Chuck Wepner — the Bayonne brawler whose improbable 15-round fight with Muhammad Ali inspired Sylvester Stallone to write Rocky. The film charts Wepner's rise from club fighter and liquor delivery man to brief, cocaine-fuelled celebrity — and his long, self-inflicted fall back down again.The Dads discuss:· Liev Schreiber's committed central performance and the stacked supporting cast (Naomi Watts, Elisabeth Moss, Ron Perlman, Jim Gaffigan)· The film's tonal debt to Boogie Nights — same era, same cocaine, same gravitational pull· Why The Bleeder is more entertaining than it is illuminating, and whether that's enough· Chuck Wepner's actual boxing record, the real Ali fight, and the legendary grizzly bear incident· The Stallone connection: Rocky, the botched Rocky II audition, and the money Wepner never saw Also this week:· Top Five Vigilantes — featuring Travis Bickle, Batman, V for Vendetta, The Boondock Saints, Law Abiding Citizen, Nobody, Death Wish (1974), Rolling Thunder, Kick-Ass, The Punisher, Harry Brown, and Miss Marple· Viewing chat: Beef (Season 2, Netflix) | The Boys (Season 5) | Apex (Netflix)· Walking football season update: Played 18, Won 14, Drew 2, Lost 1 — and a cup final incoming Films/shows mentioned: The Bleeder (2016), Rocky (1976), Boogie Nights (1997), Beef (Season 2), The Boys (Season 5), Apex (2025), Death Wish (1974), Rolling Thunder (1977), Law Abiding Citizen (2009), Nobody (2021), Kick-Ass (2010), Super (2010), The Punisher, Harry Brown (2009), V for Vendetta (2005), Inglourious Basterds (2009), Hard Candy (2005), Promising Young Woman (2020), Taxi Driver (1976), The Equalizer, Mad Max (1979), Taken (2008)You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

“HE WAS ALL OF US.“Hello everyone! We are back to talk about another film that may have aged a little better than we hoped, and we might all be worse off for that. We are talking about 2005's V For Vendetta, directed by James McTeague, starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving, written by one of the podcast's favorite sibling duos, the Wachowski sisters! On this episode we talk about just how relevant the film feels, especially while living in America. In the world of V, we are living in a fascist, police state, ravaged by a viral outbreak, with state sponsored media spreading fear and propaganda, an authoritarian government seizing personal freedoms while the oligarch class is protected and reaping all the benefits of their crimes against humanity. An all too familiar world for anyone not living under a rock. Even though the original Alan Moore graphic novel was written in response to Margaret Thatcher's Britain in the 1980's, and the Wachowski's screenplay was written perhaps in response to the 2nd (or rather, 3rd) Bush Administration, perhaps the heart of the story is what it takes to survive these oppressive regimes.Speaking of Alan Moore, we talk about why the acclaimed graphic novel writer distanced himself from the film. When the frequent Wachowski collaborator and producer Alan Silver claimed Moore gave the film his blessing, which he did not, Moore asked for his name to be removed from the credits. Even still, Moore rejected the script itself and when we examine the differences between the film and source material we can see why. Both the graphic novel and film can be seen as separate, complimentary stories, but are so vastly difference that we can't really say it's a “good adaptation,” despite being fond of both. Listen to the full episode for more on this!We also talk about what the Wachowskis bring to the film. It wasn't directed by them, but by their assistant director from the Matrix Trilogy, James McTeague. Still, we can still feel their influence in what segments get special attention, the montages, and how we experience time and how everything is connected.Putting this film together, with who was involved, who was cast, when it was filmed, where it was filmed.. there are so many connections and references that we don't even get into all of it. Despite being a little sillier in some places, more digestible than something as heavy and poignant as Andor (which Austin HIGHLY recommends,) the film delivers some moments that may never be forgot.You can listen to this episode ANYWHERE you get your podcasts!

Shauna and Olivia want to share their favorite movies with each other, and you! Up first is Shauna's favorite movie, V for Vendetta. Released in 2006, V for Vendetta was based on the DC/Vertigo comic series by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. Directed by James McTeigue and written by the Wachowskis, V for Vendetta stars Hugo Weaving as the masked V, Natalie Portman as Evey, and a veritable who's who of British actors (mostly male) including John Hurt, Rupert Graves, Stephen Fry and Stephen Rea. The Junkies discuss the plot (spoilers abound, so be sure you've seen it before listening), the characters, the romance, the themes, and the stunning parallels between a movie released 20 years ago and today's political landscape.

This week on End Credits we get a-political, with the "a" standing for "apocalypse". Our movie of the week is now on PVOD after a brief theatrical run and given it's about the dangers of A.I. and social media, it's no wonder. We will review Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die, and in the same corner of streaming we will revisit a different dark future now 20 years later in V For Vendetta. This Wednesday, March 25, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: V For Vendetta at 20! Two decades ago, a movie about a masked man taking on a totalitarian government in the United Kingdom was released in the wake of the War on Terror, 9/11 and a backlash against LGBTQ+ rights. Based on the graphic novel and produce by the Wachowskis, it seemed V's moment came and went, but in the Trump era, and a new war in the Middle East, maybe V For Vendetta's time has come again. This week, we will re-watch and render our judgement. REVIEW: Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die (2026). There's been a lot of concern about A.I. in narrative fiction for a while, and now it's everywhere! Too late for us? Not quite because Oscar-winner Sam Rockwell is here to save the day, and the future, from an A.I.pocalypse that destroys the world as humanity watches it all pass by doom scrolling on their phones. Gore Verbinski's (the original Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy) first movie in 10 years has its finger on the pulse, but can he deliver on this bizarre and unique mix of sci-fi, adventure, comedy and cultural commentary? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

HBO is developing a V for Vendetta TV series with writer Pete Jackson attached and James Gunn and Peter Safran executive producing for DC Studios. We break down what that creative team signals for tone and scope, how the show might adapt Alan Moore and David Lloyd's classic, and where it could fit within HBO's run of prestige comic adaptations. We also revisit the 2005 film's legacy and outline the big questions fans should watch as the project moves through development.00:00 Intro and headline00:35 Who is Pete Jackson and why his work matters02:10 Creative team and producers explained03:45 Source material primer for newcomers05:30 What made the 2005 film stick with audiences07:05 How this fits HBO and DC's live action slate08:50 What a season one arc could cover10:20 Casting and tone watchlist11:30 Production timeline expectations and next checkpoints12:15 Final thoughts and listener promptHBO is developing V for Vendetta with Pete Jackson writing and DC Studios leadership producing.Expect character driven storytelling with a focus on personal stakes inside a political thriller frame.The series has strong runway at HBO, which has a history of turning comic properties into prestige TV.The 2005 film set a high bar for mood and iconography, so casting for V and Evey will be pivotal.Early cues to watch include period setting, one season retelling versus ongoing world build, and how closely it tracks the graphic novel's themes.“The mask is iconic, but the power of V for Vendetta is the way it asks who gets to define freedom.”“If this show keeps the human story front and center, the politics will land without feeling like a lecture.”“Casting V and Evey decides the show's heartbeat before a single set piece is shot.”If you enjoyed this breakdown, follow and subscribe, leave a quick review, and share the episode with the hashtag #GeekFreaksHeadlines.

This week on the Major Issues Podcast, the hosts don their Guy Fawkes masks and look back at V for Vendetta, 20 years after its premiere. What began as a cautionary tale about authoritarian control, surveillance, and manufactured fear feels eerily prophetic two decades later. The crew revisits the Wachowskis-produced classic, exploring how its themes of rebellion, censorship, and identity hit harder in today's world than ever before. From Hugo Weaving's chillingly poetic performance to Natalie Portman's transformation as Evey Hammond, we reflect on how the film's dystopian vision has crept frighteningly close to reality—and why V for Vendetta remains a timeless rallying cry for freedom and truth.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 120: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: We’ve all known it would come to this; we’ve all WARNED it would come to this; we’ve all PREDICTED they’d try to ease the knife in slowly, they’d take the boiling frog route, and here it comes. It’s in every piece of political science fiction from "1984" to "Brazil" to "V For Vendetta." And it is now real: if everything Trump does deserves criticism and gets criticism there is only one thing for Trump and his gang to do: prosecute criticism of Trump and claim those WHO criticize him are aiding and abetting terrorists. The ultimate Thought Crime was given voice by no less a figure than Trump's Counterterrorism Director, who, since Trump found the worst possible person to do each job (and bin Laden is dead) is Sebastian Gorka. The threat is connected to the push to send not just immigrants to rot in a For-Profit El Salvador Rendition Center, but American citizens too, especially those who standup to Trump's attempt to purge Hispanics from this country. Axios reports that one of the other potential new Orwellian crimes would be advising detainees of their rights. If that's not directed at AOC I don't know what could be. B-Block (25:20) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Derrick Van Orden attacks Wisconsin's governor because Van Orden thinks Milwaukee kids are stupid - and he misspells the word "how" in his post. Brian Kilmeade's Hegseth spoiler alert: he calls him "former secretary." And we are all very proud here that one of 'our own' has reduced Bill Maher to graffiti. Further details on "My Dinner With Adolf." C-Block (37:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I had literally forgotten - until I literally worked through the neighborhood - that I made my Broadway singing and dancing debut seven years ago. I mean literally, on stage, during an actual Broadway show. If it made that much of an impression on me, imagine how bored the audience was! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
