Tom Cruise is at an engagement party pretending to be normal, which mostly involves making drinks, studying "traffic patterns", and quietly alarming everyone in the room. Within minutes, he's thrown all the ice into the backyard, taken a mysterious call, and disappeared to Berlin before anyone can question the growing puddle on the lawn. His fiancée accepts this without hesitation, which is honestly a great starting point for everyone here. This is J.J. Abrams' $150 million debut, handed to him because Tom Cruise watched Alias at 2 a.m. and trusted the vibes. The result is a movie powered less by logic and more by momentum counterbalanced by Philip Seymour Hoffman calmly counting to ten. Around that, we sit back and enjoy the spectacle: Vatican break-ins, exploding highways, helicopter chases, and an aggressively unexplained Rabbit's Foot. Nick, Elise, and Anthony sort through the chaos, from defribulated brain bombs, to Ving Rhames operating rollerball sniper cannons, to Laurence Fishburne delivering an all-time GOATed Ted Talk on the power of rehetorical questions. We are all Julia today, as we go from trusting fiancée to action-ready medic in about forty-eight hours, and nobody stops to process any of it. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to not throw the party ice in the yard.   https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317919/

“You put Dawn of the Dead, Romero's, and Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later in the copy machine at the same time…” - Eric on this movie's vibeOn this week's episode Remake-ril kicks off on WHM and we're chatting about the pretty okay Zack Snyder feature debut, Dawn of the Dead! A reimagining of George A. Romero's zombified capitalist critique, Snyder brought the franchise into the 21st Century with a more action-driven, but still fun vision. Shouldn't James Gunn have written like, eight-to-ten fewer characters to jam in here? How amazing is Ving, as always? How eerie is that zombie baby? Could Mark Borchardt and Mike Schank have made a zombie outbreak documentary? And were we wrong about goofing on Richard Cheese all these years? PLUS: Could a zombie virus destroy the city of Duckberg?Dawn of the Dead (2004) stars Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Mekhi Phifer, Jake Weber, Ty Burrell, Michael Kelly, Kevin Zegers, Michael Barry, Lindy Booth, Jayne Eastwood, Boyd Banks, Inna Korobkina, and Matt Frewer as Frank; directed by Zack Snyder.Be sure to visit the WHM Merch shop over on Dashery and check out all the latest show-related designs you can slap on t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, stickers, whatever!

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Terry McMillan: Best-Selling Author, “Waiting to Exhale,” 2001 Terry McMillan, best-selling novelist in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded February 13, 2001 while on tour for her novel, A Day Late and a Dollar Short. Terry McMillan's novels focus on the lives, aspirations and journeys of discovery of African American women and their families. She hit the ground running with her first novel, Mama, in 1987, which she helped turn into a best-seller. She followed that with a series of novels that helped create a large fan base for her work. Among her best known novels are Waiting to Exhale and How Stella Got Her Groove Back, along with Disappearing Acts, all of which were adapted for film. A Day Late and a Dollar Short is a long novel that focuses on several family members going through a variety of crises and revelations. It was adapted into a television film in 2014 starring Whoopi Goldberg and Ving Rhames, which is now available streaming on Kanopy, the free library app, as well as on other streaming services. This interview leans hard into that novel, with side trips into discussions about black families and black culture in America. As of 2026, she has published ten novels and two works of nonfiction, and according to IMDb is working as a producer for a series of television films under the title Terry McMillan presents. Her most recent novel, It's Not All Downhill from Here, was published in 2020. This interview was digitized, remastered and edited in March 2026 and has not been heard in over twenty years.     Poul Anderson (1926-2001): Science Fiction and Fantasy Legend, recorded 1978 Poul Anderson (1926-2001), noted science fiction and fantasy author, winner of seven Hugo Awards and three Nebula Awards, in conversation with the late Lawrence Davidson, recorded for the Probabilities radio program on KPFA on June 10, 1978. The late Poul Anderson, who died on July 31, 2001 at the age of 74, is considered one of the greatest science fiction and fantasy authors of the twentieth century. He even has an asteroid named in his honor. Known for his hard science writing, in particular his Polysotechnic League series as well as his Landry series and his Time Patrol series, he was also a master of fantasy. There were also historical novels and mysteries. His career began in 1947 at the age of 21 with stories in Astounding Science Fiction, and he became a professional writer a year later. One of his novels became a film, the Hugo nominated novel, The High Crusade, in 1994 about an alien spaceship landing in medieval England. It is currently not streaming in the United States though if you search, you can find a DVD copy. As with many of the writers of the pulp and paperback era, Poul Anderson is ripe for rediscovery. After Probabilities got its start in 1977, it was natural that the Orinda-based writer would become a guest on the show, This short conversation with co-host Lawrence Davidson, recorded June 10, 1978, was likely Davidson's very first solo interview and came before the show's focus turned to the history of modern science fiction. The interview was digitized, remastered and edited on February 22, 2026, using the Adobe Podcast app to remove noise and echo. This interview has not been heard on the radio since its initial airing.

The Spin Chagrin, a concept that finds Frank having to watch a movie he's never seen before based on the random spin of a wheel filled with off-the-wall genres, continues into its fourth year. All the categories are quotables from Frank himself. In this episode, Frank's category was "It's basically Yojimbo with Yojumbo in the f***ing lead," a reference to the Steven Seagal movie, A Good Man. For this episode, Frank watched 2013's Force of Execution, which is the movie A Good Man was a prequel to. It has no connection really to the other movie, but does star Ving Rhames and Danny Trejo at least.

It is a pretty substandard week for movies. Even moreso than usual. But Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy power through and may find at least one worth your time. Could it be the story of a serial killer and possession (The Mannequin)? Or how about the one with Ving Rhames training a wannabe female boxer to become…a manager (Uppercut)? There's a documentary about Paul McCartney after leaving The Beatles (Man on the Run) and Jessica Chastain in a toxic relationship with an immigrant (Dreams). Priyana Chopra has to fight off pirate Karl Urban (The Bluff) and the director of WALL-E explores death and aging over tens of thousands of years (In the Blink of an Eye). Finally, Ghostface AND Neve Campbell return in the horror franchise celebrating its 30th Anniversary (Scream 7).1:04 - The Mannequin6:28 - Man on the Run14:40 - Uppercut22:20 - Dreams31:30 - The Bluff40:52 - In the Blink of an Eye53:54 - Scream 7CLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNGBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

Hey everybody, welcome back to Myopia Movies. This week we're tackling an action-silly Nicolas Cage classic: Con Air. And honestly—if you've never seen it before, I almost want to tell you to stop and watch it first… but our discussion is good enough that you'll survive either way. Fair warning: this episode got chaotic. So chaotic, in fact, that our newly married editor and panelist, Nur Chernnet, had to cut nearly 15 minutes of material. We went completely off the rails. What you're hearing is the best of what survived. We hope you enjoy the wreckage. As always, keep listening, keep subscribing—and now for some big news. If you're listening to this when it drops (mid-January 2026) and you're in the Metro Atlanta area, make sure you follow CineProv on Facebook. At the end of the month—the final Wednesday—we're launching a brand-new regular CineProv show. Even better, Keiko and Jeremy, two members of the Myopia crew, will be debuting their first show that night. Go support them. It's going to be great. One last thing: attached to this episode is a link to our Amazon Wish List. If you pick a movie from the list, not only will we cover it on the podcast (thank you for the support!), but we'll also record an exclusive, personalized riff just for you—attached to a DVD so you can watch us tear into the movie specifically in your honor. Check it out, see if anything grabs you, and as always—thanks for listening. How will Con Air hold up?

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/

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! EL SEÑOR DE LOS ANILLOS vuelve a nuestro programa con esta segunda y última entrega del especial monográfico. En esta ocasión nos centraremos específicamente en sus adaptaciones cinematográficas, las que se quedaron por el camino, las que ni siquiera arrancaron, las que mostraron la historia desde el campo de la animación y las que se dividieron en tres películas, arrasaron en los Oscars y pusieron un listón difícilmente superable para cualquier posible remake hasta bien pasadas tres o cuatro décadas, como mínimo. Los colaboradores habituales del programa, Raúl Martín y Nathan Kurtz, acompañados del presentador, editor y director de La Órbita De Endor, Antonio Runa, explorarán todos estos escabrosos terrenos, enfangándose en no pocos pantanos que quizá provoquen controversia entre la audiencia. Además, en la fase final del programa, una vez analizadas las películas más importantes que trasladaron la obra de Tolkien a la gran pantalla, charlaremos animadamente con Miguel Ángel Jenner, director del doblaje de la edición española de la trilogía dirigida por Peter Jackson, quien además prestó su voz al personaje del enano Gimli, y que habitualmente dobla a Samuel L Jackson, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames o el personaje Jigsaw en la saga Saw, entre otros muchos papeles. Junto a él estará José Mediavilla, la voz de Morgan Freeman en español, amén de infinidad de otros actores, como Michael Clarke Duncan, James Earl Jones o John Goodman, entre otros muchos, y que en las películas de El Señor de los Anillos dobló al mago Gandalf. Nos contarán no pocas anécdotas relacionadas con el trabajo que rodeó a la famosa trilogía, desde el punto de vista de su profesión. Os garantizamos que se trata de uno de los episodios de LODE más recomendables de la presente temporada, y lo tenéis que escuchar independientemente de cuál sea vuestra opinión sobre las películas de la saga.

Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation is a great example of good, straight forward storytelling. Yes, it's an action movie with big stunts.

This episode, I'll show you what I mean and Valerie will give her take on the interesting variation of the Villian's monologue.

Get in, loser, we're going...to the mall and never leaving because there is a zombie apocalypse going and and we have all our basic needs met is what the main characters of 2004 Dawn of the Dead SHOULD HAVE said. Instead, they come up with a subpar plan and chaos ensued. This movie pulls no punches and is quick to get to the action.

Arguably one of the best action franchises of all time comes to a presumed end with Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning. Somehow, the most divisive entry yet, Christopher McQuarrie and Tom Cruise's latest attempt to save movies as champions of the analog finds Ethan Hunt once again fighting the rogue AI known as The Entity. Are its two barnburner stunt extravaganza's enough to stick the franchise's landing? Find out as we discuss our rankings, fan service, and the quest to preserve the moviegoing experience altogether.

Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and the rest of the IMF crew are back for ONE last mission....to save the world from The Entity, a massive artificial intelligence collective which has spread so far it is now on the verge of taking over every major nuclear weapons arsenal.  And the President (Angela Bassett) is running out of options as Ethan still has possession of ONE key item which our AI overlord still needs....a cruciform key.  As this is a direct continuation of the previous Mission: Impossible sequel (Dead Reckoning) from a couple of years ago, most of that film's key cast returns including series stalwarts Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg, along with Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, Henry Czerny, and Esai Morales as the villainous Gabrial.  Also returning is director Oscar-winning writer/director Chris McQuarrie (The Usual Suspects, Jack Reacher) who has now helmed his fourth Mission:Impossible film in a row.  Once again, the stunts gets crazier and The Cruise Missile seems to put his life on the line even more for the sake of pulling them off-screen - this leads to crazy action both underwater and up in the air!  Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Twenty-five years ago, director John Woo (Hard Boiled, Face/Off) joined this franchise to helm this long-awaited sequel to the first cinematic adaptation from '96.  And whereas the first film was a paranoid espionage thriller, he and star/producer/mastermind Tom Cruise decided to shift THIS entry in the direction of ramped up operatic action mixed with forbidden romance.  Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is back for his next mission where he must prevent a now disavowwed former IMF-rival Sean Ambrose (Dougray Scott) from doing something nefarious with a mysterious bio-weapon/virus nicknamed "Chimera."  And to get closer to this new villain's burgeoning operation, Ethan must enlist a beautiful jewel thief named Nyah (Thandiwe Newton) who has a past with Ambrose but....the ONE thing he didn't count on was falling in love. :o And what results is a rip-roaring, mostly-set-in-Australia action EPIC filled with rock climbing, fast cars, roundhouse kicks, and.....DOVES.  This was a major smash upon release and remains one of the more successful films in this long-running franchise....however a backlash has developed since then with many now calling it the WORST of the Mission: Impossible saga.  Our mission - should we choose to accept it - is to determine as to whether it lives up OR down to the hype!See below for a link where you can hear the rare instrumental version of this movie's theme song, cited within this review:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfBiktIrDnQHost & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
