Celia and Tucker get together so Celia can hear Tucker's LUKEWARM PRAISE for the big movies and his BOUGHT THE HYPE hustle for the overrated indie picture. Can this submarine be brought to the surface? Is that a robot I see in my future? Breaking Bad: you missed an opportunity!By Tucker Stone

Matt Seneca, Celia Mattison & Tucker Stone catch up with The Great Silence, catch zero heat off of Darren Aronofsky, and talk about Charlie Dickens and The Triangle of Sadness. It's a movie cast, for the people, by some persons.By Tucker Stone

Celia and Tucker talk about Barbarian, The Fan (not the Tony Scott one, but the one that James Garner thought was the worst thing in his lengthy catalog of terrible things), and one of the worst movies that Celia has ever made it all the way through: Don't Worry Darling. They also trade secrets regarding their inexplicably personal feelings towards…

This time around, Matt Seneca dug Tucker up out of a well, shocked him back to life, and asked him why, why oh why, hast thou never seen Bela Tarr's Damnation? To which Tucker replied that he had been busy watching Black Adam. "Buddy" said Matt, "You can do both." A podcast was born, and in the afterbirth of its labor, you'll also find a brief disc…

Matt Seneca and Sara McHenry join Tucker for a special ALL READING, ALL THE TIME episode of a movie podcast. But wait: won't this reading spoil my enjoyment of the movie someday? No, listening to Al Pacino's casting recommendations will do that. (The movie will never come out.)By Tucker Stone

After a nice and relaxing break to get Covid, Tucker and Celia are back: and so is Jordan Peele, with his latest picture, Nope! We also touch base on Gray Man and then near the end blaspheme Top Gun Maverick. Let's GO!By Tucker Stone

Celia's here, and she's been plugging away on the Festival circuit, like a movie robot, beep click and all that. But first we talk about The Northman (sort of!) and then we talk about Letterboxd (why not!) and then it's comic book time (yes ma'am!), before closing it out with Johnnie To's Throwdown. Promises are made!…

Tucker is joined by Tessa Strain and Geoff Lapid to talk about Michael Bay's Ambulance, which may not have performed as well as some hoped at the box office, but performed extremely well in Tucker's heart--and that's the only metric that matters! We're also blessed with some hot takes on cold violence, with the Los Angeles duo explaining why, in fa…

This week, Tucker & Celia are talking about After Yang, which is great, and Celia's take on Batman, which is that she watched a shitload of Batman movies, and Tucker's take on Batman: Venom, which he has given on way more podcasts then is necessary.By Tucker Stone

In this episode, Celia and Morgan valiantly attempt to keep the podcast on the rails, but Tucker has been isolating himself proving once again that outside of Soprano's, there no such thing as the Golden Age of Television. But when they do get him back to movies, there's only one movie allowed: THE BATMAN. Maxwell Wolkin and Tucker trade favorite m…

This week, Celia, Morgan and Tucker are joined by Matt Seneca to talk about Robert Altman and his 70s standard: Nashville. We also spend some time with Licorice Pizza in Tucker's attempt to deliver an even worse take than the bad one circulating (he nails it! whoops!) but for the most part we'll are just happy to talk Tennessee. Is that lady Britis…

New year, new you: same us. It's time to talk about Kathryn Bigelow's Near Dark, to knock the dust off talking in general, and to pontificate on what is to come with Kathryn and her secrets. Celia, Morgan & Tucker are here, so is Bill Paxton and the rest of his Aliens cronies--unfortunately, Adrian Pasdar is as well. Time to get some!…

In one corner, it's Benedict Campion. In the other? Delroy Lindo with the cheapest fake mustache you've ever seen. While you'll never be forced to choose between one Netflix movie versus another, we're still throwing them into the ring. Blame Sloane Leong, who is here for the ride, and refuses to honor the term "revisionist Western" with anything t…

This time around, Morgan, Celia & Tucker are debating DUNE. A debate you say? Yes: a debate between the two sides of Morgan's brain--the side where he doesn't seem to like Dune (2021) and has a lot of reasons why, and the other side, where he keeps saying "no, I actually did like it!" Meanwhile, Celia admits that her neglect of the Synderverse may …

Matt Seneca joins Celia & Tucker to talk about Titane, which 2/3 of us think is the best movie of the year: BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. There's also the return of Ridley, sloughing off that cemetery dirt and firing a shotgun into the ceiling: this ain't the first duel baby, it's The Last Duel. Do we talk about Lamb? Yeah, sure. But you can otherwise call t…

It's time to talk about James Bond with Maxwell Wolkin--that's right! We brought in Travis Bickle's very own official James Bond expert to talk about the return (and immediate retirement) of Daniel Craig, in 2021's No Time To Die. Marvel at Tucker's recalcitrance, bask in Wolkin's studied fashion critique, and wallow in our disdain for Skyfall: it'…

And we're on! Morgan, Celia & Tucker got together to talk about Kathryn Bigelow, in the first of a series as of yet untitled, taking a look at her 80s debut, The Loveless. Co-directed with Monty Montgomery and featuring the "official" debut of Willem Dafoe: will we be able to say more than that about this 80 minute movie packed full of slow ass tak…

We start off with Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch, which leads us to Paul Schrader's The Card Counter: an Oscar Isaac double feature! After that, it's time to talk about Candyman, courtesy of Nia DaCosta and too much talking. But wait: what about that Clint Eastwood trailer???By Tucker Stone

From the brackish past, it's an ep that had been lost: now it is found! Earlier this year, we got together to talk about the passing of DMX, which means we talked about Belly and Tucker defended that one scene in Top Five, we talked about trailers and a whole mess of things: and it all started with the movie Shiva Baby, which we had genuine affecti…

Does the title tell it all? NO. It's a round-up cast buddy! This episode even includes Conan The Destroyer, some talk about Jimmy Bond, Celia saying incorrect things about Invitation, Tucker wasting an explanation of a great Justice League cover on a couple of BUZZKILLS. It's a podcast, buddy!By Tucker Stone

If the title didn't clue you in, yeah, this episode is on the new movie by M. Night Shyamalan's Old and Andrei Tarkovsky's Mirror. But what the title doesn't tell you is that this crossover episode features Joe McCulloch and Matt Seneca: one man an expert in M. Night Shyamalan, the other man an expert in Andrei Tarkovsky. What to do about a host wh…

This week, Morgan and Tucker are joined by Sloane Leong to talk about her path of half star destruction, how it led the boys to find out about the availability of Edward Yang's Terrorizers, and then, in a surprise twist, she is also revealed to have been initiated into the least figured out of all our post-apocalyptic universes: The Quiet Place uni…

This week, Travis Bickle RETURNS to NYC: Celia reports back from watching Zola, Tucker reports from the living room on The Ice Storm, EVERYBODY clocks in regarding the Soderbergh movie that has the three word generic noir title--No Sudden Move? Get Sudden Moon? I can't remember, who cares. In the middle of that Morgan and Tucker meet a new contende…

Have we all really never seen or talked about the movie Set It Off, a movie which features Queen Latifah doing two guns, one-in-each-hand as best as anybody outside of Chow Yun-fat ever did it? That turned out to be the case. But wait, there's more: John Q as well, a movie that dares to ask the question of whether James Woods can play someone who h…

This time, it's 2020's Riders of Justice, courtesy of Anders Thomas Jensen and his beautiful perfect muse, Mads Mikkelsen. We also get into Streets Of Fire, a little about Zack Snyder (under pressure from Celia, I assure you!) and there's even a review of various bowls and their usefulness as soup receptacles.…

This time around, the crew (Morgan, Celia & Tucker) are all talking about Saint Maud, an A24 prestige horror movie told at a painterly pace by a woman who just might be Rose Byrne. Did you know there's another Coney Island that doesn't have hot dogs? Find out about that, and more, including depressing hand jobs used in place of dialog for character…

It's a very special Abba-pology cast, with Tucker & Morgan diving into two of Celia's fist-pumpers, Muriel's Wedding and Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again. To maintain narrative coherence, they also get into Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert, which features Guy Pearce (from last week) and Abba (who feature prominently in the other movies.) But you already k…

This week, we're talking about Bob Odendirk's Nobody, whether there are enough bats in Arizona for dracula to have friends, and then it's time for Guy Pearce-ing it: The Rover, Ravenous & The Time Machine. Celia makes a claim for blankness, will Tucker recover? Whose side will Morgan take? What about bubblegum pop!…

Tucker and Celia were reeling from their second shots, but the coursing power of vaccination juice worked upon them much as the juice of Street Fighter's Dhalsim used medication to create Blanka. Who knew? But no, it's Mortal Kombat time. All of the live action Mortal Kombat movies get covered, but not television shit. No thank you, television!…

This week, Celia reports back on Concrete Cowboys, and the rest of us respond by saying: message received! Then it's time to get down to the meat of the PaxCast: One False Move, A Simple Plan & Frailty. Does Billy Bob Thornton steal the show a bit? He sure does!By Tucker Stone

It's an old timey round-up-cast, with Tucker, Morgan & Celia running the boards: Godzilla Vs. Kong & Bad Trip get some attention, but so does Roberto Rossellini and his neorealism, a metric ton of James Spader movies that Celia used as mood altering substances in her travels across the country, and a bit of riffing on Spielberg and a million other …

This week, it's Tucker & Celia with a chill out session on Judas & The Black Messiah, Sorry To Bother You, The Gate, a funeral Tucker went to, the question of psy ops and taking moral lessons from Mortal Kombat. There's more than that. There's a lot!By Tucker Stone

Maybe next time we should try a formal rundown of Philip Seymour Hoffman? We could all wear suits and carry around attache cases. Come celebrate Celia's first Communion as we talk about our favorite boy!By Tucker Stone

Bring It On: and no, we're not just referring to this week's double feature of melancholy streaming critical populist tales featuring 80s Korean family farms and widows cruising the badlands. We're also referring to the cheerleading classic, featuring the triple threat of Union, Dunst & Dushku. Is that all? NO. There's even more: Mafioso! Arguments…

This time around, we're talking about The Little Things, The Kid Detective and The Last Champion. So many movies featuring the word "The" at the beginning. We also have a swing-by guest who chats us up about WandaVision for a bit. Get some!By Tucker Stone

This time around, we're watching your favorite streaming programs, I guess? One Night In Miami, The White Tiger & Another Round. At the close, Nina shows up so that Tucker can recap A Hidden Life, an extremely good Terence Malick movie that I guess people didn't like that much? It's good!By Tucker Stone

This week, we're catching up with Carey Mulligan's adventure outside of period dramas, Promising Young Woman. Then, it's project time: three people, three Jamie Foxx movies, three people who blew it. We blew it, guys! None of these are gonna knock Collateral or Vice out of the top Foxx spot! They include Stealth, which is about a plane and isn't re…

We got together with an exacting series of math equations to determine our Top Ten Movies of 2020 while on the air, and then we figured out our bottom five as well. LISTEN to Celia's disgust with Tucker's support for Tenet, MARVEL at Morgan's attempt to rank a music documentary, PONDER all the other Udo Kier movies Tucker could have named before br…

Tucker, Celia & Morgan get together to talk about some garbage--WW84 and The Midnight Sky. Then they ask Nina to come by and update them with her thoughts on those stinkers, and she waxes philosophic about Avatar. Avatar? Sure! You can download episodes directly from spotify, itunes and rss. This is a Patreon-supported podcast, subscribing to the s…

This week, we're catching up with Tenet, conversations surrounding Tenet, expectations regarding John David Washington, the purposes of prissiness: etc. Then it's theater-o-clock, with Ma Rainey's Black Bottom coming in for examination. Who brings it home? Julia "The Joker" Roberts in My Best Friend's Wedding. What were you doing at 28? Don't answe…

Hey buddy: have a good holiday. While you're wrapping your presents, get caught up on the Let Them All Talk, Mangrove, Red White & Blue and The Sound of Metal. It's an all 2020 style thing, as we wind down this year! You can download episodes directly from spotify, itunes and rss. This is a Patreon-supported podcast, subscribing to the show can giv…

This week, we're checking out Happiest Season via Hulu, Embattled via Russian tycoon money, the perfection of The Hitcher and a little Armando Ianucci, with his riff on David Copperfield! You can download episodes directly from spotify, itunes and rss. This is a Patreon-supported podcast, subscribing to the show can give you access to additional co…

This week's episode is a special dive into listener recommendations--an anonymous rec for The Beast of War (or "The Beast"), and Messiah of Evil, courtesy of Josh Simmons. And in keeping with tradition, Tucker takes a look at the latest (last?) Jack Reacher book, The Sentinel. This was a random idea, but we dug it, so keep those recommendations com…

This week, we're talking about Brandon Cronenberg's Possessor and Remi Weekes' His House. Then we throw each other on the spot to talk about Pride & Prejudice from 1995, 2020's Bad Hair and the demonic and awe-inspiring Wake of Death, featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme and two weeks worth of Ringo Lam. You can keep up with the show via spotify, itunes…

It's time to talk about Jean-Claude Van Damme week: didn't you watch the news? This week, we're talking about his work with Ringo Lam (Maximum Risk and Replicant), Tsui Hark (Double Team) and John Woo (Hard Target). Tucker also did some extra credit and watched We Die Young, which dropped last year. It's a good one! You can download episodes direct…

This time around, we're looking at Unpregnant, from the HBO Max streaming platform, Blow The Man Down, from Amazon Prime, and The Wolf Of Snow Hollow, which didn't pick a side yet. We also make personal confessions and reveal secrets!By Tucker Stone

It's time for an extra long episode of Travis Bickle, because it's our favorite time of year: HELL-O-WEEN. This time around, we're talking about wolf movies--movies that feature wolves, either in their title or onscreen! Unfortunately the library didn't deliver Dances With ____ in time, but from what I can remember the only thing scary about that m…

This week, Morgan, Celia & Tucker are standing abreast a sea of time, with a look at Conan The Barbarian, Red Heat and Killing Gunther: three films united not by their quality, but by the quality of their star. It's Schwarzenegger time!By Tucker Stone

This week, we're talking about movies like Tigertail, tv shows like Brad Pitt's LEGO Masters, the incest tinged #alone, a documentary on Rashomon, Celia recaps Raw Deal...but the real meat of this episode of Bacurau which is a movie we all deeply loved. You can download episodes directly from itunes and rss. This is a Patreon-supported podcast, sub…
