Episode 674: The Justice League See This/Not That
The Deucecast Movie Show
With the new Superman footage and cast list being leaked and revealed little by little, we thought it a good time to visit and revisit The Justice League, and a little "See This / Not That". #XLessDrEarl is on assignment in Zamunda, so we invite in a Podcast Legend, the Podfather of Geek Out Loud - the one and only Steve Glosson. Glosson, Mikey, and d$ do a little catch up here and there, then discuss the actors and actresses from the Justice League - Henry Cavill, Willem Dafoe, Gal Gadot, Jeremy Irons, Benaffleck, and more -- all with suggestions and our takes on their movies...

Episode 672: The Gene Hackman Top 10
The Deucecast Movie Show
Tis a sad fact that we all must face at some point - our Hollywood legends have begun to fall. It was easy to take the deaths of Cary Grant or Bing Crosby or Natalie Wood as we barely knew them as celebrities, only the movies they gave us to entertain us. But it is a sad fact that time is undefeated, and names like Hoffman, Eastwood, Pacino, Streep, Hanks, DeNiro, those celebrities we've watched in their primes and beyond, will become names of the past... thus, Gene Hackman has moved to that hallowed ground. With reverence and love, Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl take a look at the...

The Deucecast Movie Show
It's almost the Ides of March (a movie that ironically was not released in March) and it's time to look back over the last 25 Marches -- with the best movies from the 3rd month of the year in the 21st Century! First, d$, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl opens up the show with a quick look at "Mickey 17", the latest from Garrison Ryfun's director boo, Bong Joon-ho, and the good... and the bad... and the bad... and maybe some of the good. Then, checking out the March classics - from PG&E fightin' lawyers to ninja gang wars to The Rock's gay bodyguard - to the new soon-to-be...

Mikey has put forth hours and hours and hours of time copying and pasting, and now he, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are presenting all the movies you will want to see over the next few months! First, a quick recap of the Academy Awards... what they got right, what they got wrong, and did Zoe Saldana earn her trophy? Then, the birthday movies of 2020, 2015, 2010 and more -- as we enter the Five Years since the world (and theaters) shut down. And even a mention of Baby Secret of the Lost...

Episode 667: The Oscar Snub Tourney
The Deucecast Movie Show
In a world full of Oscar winners, there is also a large population of worthy performers who never had their own Academy Award moments. Whether being nominated one time, or seven times, or no times, nary a winning ballot with their name on it. Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl invite in Miss Independent himself, Jeremy Burgeydoodle, to discuss twenty four dudes and twenty three dames, all with bodies of excellent work. Actors from Ed Harris in "The Right Stuff" to Michael B Jordan's "Fruitvale Station" to d$'s girlfriend Amy Adams in "American Hustle" to Margot Robbie in... well,...
