30 years ago a terrifying virus took over movie theaters; and five years after a terrifying virus took over the world the MovieFilm boys decided to rewatch the action thriller OUTBREAK, directed by the late Wolfgang Petersen and starring Dustin Hoffman, for our latest commentary track! Listen separately or watch along as we talk through the project's convoluted backstory, behind-the-scenes stories, humorous asides and much more!

Friend of the Show Screen Time Kota (https://www.tiktok.com/@screentimekota) returns to discuss the 1985 sci-fi film Enemy Mine. This hidden gem of an ‘80s sci-fi film has everything you want: practical effects, elaborate sets, miniature spaceships, matte paintings, and incredible makeup. Even more impressive is the performance of Louis Gossett Jr. underneath the intricate alien makeup. He and Dennis Quaid (a human) get stranded on a planet together; their species hate each other more than anything else… but somehow, they'll need to learn to get along if they want to survive this.

We return to Wolfgang Petersen's Troy: Director's Cut 20 years after its initial release and discover a film that's aged surprisingly well. Featuring an incredible cast including Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Peter O'Toole, Sean Bean, Brian Cox, Brendan Gleeson, and Orlando Bloom, Troy is carried by the actors' strong performances. While not strictly true to the Iliad, Troy's daring attempt to place the Trojan War on film deserves praise, as do the incredible combat and battle sequences. While the quality is incredibly uneven and varies scene-to-scene, our hosts are willing to cope with the awful Achilles-Briseis romantic arc to enjoy the well-told stories of Hector and Priam.

On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John watched Contact, the 1997 science-fiction drama directed by Robert Zemeckis. Based on the book by Carl Sagan, Contact stars Jodie Foster as Dr. Ellie Arroway, a SETI scientist who discovers extraterrestrial life and is eventually chosen to make first contact with the alien life. Foster is joined by a stacked cast of character actors, including Matthew McConaughey, James Woods, Tom Skerritt, William Fichtner, John Hunt, Rob Lowe and Angela Bassett. In their conversation, Jamelle and John discuss the distinctly neoliberal politics of the film as well as the extent to which Contact is a prominent example of the “end of history” utopianism that marked political and cultural life as the 1990s came to a close.You can find Contact to rent or purchase on Amazon or Apple TV.For the next episode of the podcast, Jamelle and John will watch Air Force One, directed by Wolfgang Petersen and starring Harrison Ford as the president who punches.

Tällä kertaa hieman yllättäen arvostelussa hieman ysäri trilleriä Air Force One leffan merkeissä. Meikäläiseltä kysyttiin mietteitä tästä leffasta, mutta edellisestä katsomiskerrasta oli vierähtänyt liikaa aikaa niin en osannut sanoa kuin että hyvä leffa. Tästä sain idean katsoa leffa uudelleen ja samalla arvostella se, jotta kysyjä kuin muutkin saavat tietää mitä mieltä olen siitä. Leffan pääosassa nähdään Harrison Ford ja Gary Oldman ja sen on ohjannut Wolfgang Petersen, joten voiko se olla muuta kuin hyvä? No se selviää arvostelussa. Oletko sinä nähnyt tämän leffan? Tai kuuluuko kysymys ennemmin että kuinka monesti? Mitä mieltä leffasta? Mikä on Wolfgang Petersenin paras elokuva?

In this episode, we attempt to collect our thoughts after finally watching the epic 1981 submarine war drama, "Das Boot", from writer/director Wolfgang Petersen and starring Jurgen Prochnow!

Returning to our debut topic, we dig into the 2004 attempt to keep the Gladiator train going, Wolfgang Petersen's Troy. Joined by super-special guest Joel Christensen (of Sententiae Antiquae fame), we revisit this oddly situated film. Spurned by many, beloved by some, and forgotten by most, this film sits at an interesting crossroads in Hollywood and classical reception. Is it a secret masterpiece? Probably not. Is it an interesting mirror of what had and was yet to come? Definitely. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What if 'Troy' was recast in 1997?Strap in as Cory, Nick and Ash give us an epic of an episode, reimagining the 2004 Wolfgang Petersen epic, during an era when action icons were handing over the reins to fresh faces. We don't just speculate; we create an entire alternate universe where 'Troy' dominates the silver screen alongside that year's blockbusters. It's a rollercoaster of laughter, hypothetical casting debates, and a touch of cinematic wanderlust.Join us as we dissect Brad Pitt's portrayal of Achilles in the original 'Troy', scrutinizing his character arc with the glee of history buffs at a renaissance fair.

Tune in for their take on this cinematic masterpiece.Troy is a 2004 epic historical war film directed by Wolfgang Petersen and written by David Benioff. Produced by units in Malta, Mexico and Britain's Shepperton Studios, the film features an ensemble cast led by Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Sean Bean, Brian Cox, Brendan Gleeson and Orlando Bloom. It is loosely based[3] on Homer's Iliad in its narration of the entire story of the decade-long Trojan War—condensed into little more than a couple of weeks, rather than just the quarrel between Achilles and Agamemnon in the ninth year. Achilles leads his Myrmidons along with the rest of the Greek army invading the historical city of Troy, defended by Hector's Trojan army. The end of the film (the sack of Troy) is not taken from the Iliad, but rather from Quintus Smyrnaeus's Posthomerica, as the Iliad concludes with Hector's death and funeral.Find the Say Whats Reel CrewSay Whats Reel Socials - https://linktr.ee/rmhproductionsDOM CRUZE Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itzdomw/Q Twitter: https://twitter.com/King_QuisemoeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/king_quisemoe/iLL - https://twitter.com/illest_thrillerWe hope you enjoyed the video and the content we put out here at Say Whats Reel Thank you for watching!"Join Dom Q and ILL on Say What's Reel as they dive into the dark, gothic world of the 1994 cult classic, The Crow.

l⁠inktr.ee/CatchingUpOnCinema Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!⁠ This week on Catching Up On Cinema, Kyle and Trevor review Wolfgang Petersen's, Enemy Mine (1985)! An over-budgeted box office flop with a checkered production history, Enemy Mine (1985) is a charming, if uneven, sci-fi fable. On the subject of “checkered production history,” the story goes that director Wolfgang Petersen was courted to take the helm of Enemy Mine over 5 weeks into the films' production, after original director Richard Loncraine apparently failed to meet the producer's expectations. After director Petersen paused and rewound production to begin anew and remake the film from whole cloth, the production budget of Enemy Mine would essentially double. To make matter worse, the film failed to generate interest at the box office, and Enemy Mine would go on to be regarded as a financial failure. Despite failing to find an audience during its theatrical run, Enemy Mine has since gone on to become somewhat of a cult classic, largely on the strength of its handsome production design, and winning performances from both Louis Gossett Jr. and Dennis Quaid.

L'intervieweuse de la matinale de France Inter et autrice âgée de 48 ans nous reçoit chez elle dans le 13e arrondissement de Paris.Sonia Devillers évoque son enfance à Vincennes (Val-de-Marne) auprès de parents architectes et de grands-parents roumains du côté de sa mère et français du côté de son père de milieux sociaux très contrastés avec qui elle passe beaucoup de temps. Elle revient sur son rapport à la parole et à l'écrit, son amour des contes et de tout ce qui ouvre l'imaginaire, son attachement aux livres et sa passion pour le film “L'Histoire sans fin” de Wolfgang Petersen ou le roman “Dalva” de Jim Harrison. Après des études de philosophie, elle commence sa carrière au “Figaro” avant de basculer vers la radio où elle s'épanouit. Elle se confie sur l'art de l'interview, qu'elle voit comme une manière de raconter une histoire avec un début, un milieu et une fin.Elle revient longuement sur sa passion pour la variété. « Adolescente, je passais des heures devant mon poste radio. J'avais cinq stations différentes pré­enregistrées : Nostalgie, Chérie FM, Europe 2, RTL 2 et RFM. Et je passais de l'une à l'autre de manière hystérique. Dès qu'il y avait de la publicité ou qu'un animateur avait le malheur de parler, je ­zappais de manière compulsive jusqu'à ce que je trouve un tube. En voiture, j'ai failli provoquer des carambolages monstrueux. »Depuis cinq saisons, la journaliste et productrice Géraldine Sarratia interroge la construction et les méandres du goût d'une personnalité. Qu'ils ou elles soient créateurs, artistes, cuisiniers ou intellectuels, tous convoquent leurs souvenirs d'enfance, tous évoquent la dimension sociale et culturelle de la construction d'un corpus de goûts, d'un ensemble de valeurs.Un podcast produit et présenté par Géraldine Sarratia (Genre idéal) préparé avec l'aide de Diane Lisarelli et Johanna SebanRéalisation : Guillaume GiraultMusique : Gotan Project

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are fighting off evil terrorists while on board one of the most famous airplanes in the world. We watched the 1997 film from Wolfgang Petersen, Air Force One.I know that nothing can ever be 100% secure and safe. That's just not the world we live in. I'd like it to be, but there are certain trade-offs we all need to make if we want to be active participants in life.That being said… You'd think that the vetting process for who's allowed to work for the President of the United States and who's allowed on their plane would be completely airtight.In other words, how in the world could the president's plane—ideally, the most secure vehicle in the world—be hijacked by ruthless terrorists?Watching this film, it occurred to me that the security process for getting onto a commercial airline flight during the last couple of decades has been more stringent than what was shown in this film.But, as always, the terrorists didn't count on the unstoppable force that would spell their certain doom: Harrison Freaking Ford.(Recorded on July 10, 2023)Links to Stuff We Mentioned:Air Force One - The Movie Database (TMDB)Wolfgang Petersen — The Movie Database (TMDB)Harrison Ford — The Movie Database (TMDB)Gary Oldman — The Movie Database (TMDB)Man of Steel (2013) — The Movie Database (TMDB)United States presidential line of succession - WikipediaBattlestar Galactica (TV Series 2004–2009) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Designated Survivor (TV Series 2016–2019) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Die Hard | More Movies Please! - BuzzsproutGlenn Close — The Movie Database (TMDB)Trolley problem - WikipediaThe Good Place (TV Series 2016–2020) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Indiana Jones Collection — The Movie Database (TMDB)Batman (TV Series 1966–1968) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Leon: The Professional | More Movies Please! - BuzzsproutThe Postman (1997) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Randy Newman — The Movie Database (TMDB)Toy Story 3 (2010) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Jerry Goldsmith — The Movie Database (TMDB)Follow Us:Give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!Our Instagram profile!Support the show

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't cure its depression. We discuss this sad fact with our friend Drew (a.k.a. Drewbie Doobie's Movies, @drewbiedoobiemovie on TikTok) by covering a movie he loved growing up, Wolfgang Petersen's The NeverEnding Story (1984). Yes, this movie traumatized a generation of children, but to look upon it now is to see into an alternate dimension of unbelievable practical effects and puppetry. Laci, Matt, and Drew have a great conversation gushing over how incredible this movie looks, and also get to the bottom of important questions such as: Why does Bastian spend his day off hiding inside his school? Are Atreyu and Falkor more than just friends?
