NIACW 590 Hold the Dark 11/10/2024

NIACW 590 Hold the Dark Brothers Drew and Eric discuss the 2018 Jeremy Saulnier film “Hold the Dark,” a masterpiece of mood.

NIACW 589 Fail Safe (1964) Brothers J and Eric discuss the 1964 Sidney Lumet film Fail Safe, a bleak warning against nuclear weapons controlled by computers. It’s full of great actors and, while it is basically the same premise as Dr Strangelove, it is NOT a comedy. Housekeeping starts at about 50:00 and includes discussion of the process of voting, government acronyms, and Batman in virtual reality.

NIACW 586 Rebel Ridge 10/13/2024

NIACW 586 Rebel Ridge Brothers Drew and Eric discuss the 2024 Jeremy Saulnier film ‘Rebel Ridge,’ with Aaron Pierre, AnnaSophia Robb, and Don Johnson.

NIACW 583 Furiosa 09/22/2024

NIACW 583 Furiosa Brothers Drew and Eric discuss Furiosa, the follow-up to Mad Max Fury Road and a good movie in its own right.

NIACW 581 Life (2017) Brothers J and Eric discuss the 2017 sci-fi horror movie Life and compare/contrast it to the 2013 sci-fi movie The Europa Report.

NIACW 578 Black Widow 08/18/2024

NIACW 578 Black Widow Brother Drew dragged Eric back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe but in a very The Americans way. Black Widow was a delight. It turns out that the Red Room is pretty much the same as the Jedi Academy (in the same villainous way). Housekeeping begins at 51:42 and involves the first days of the new school year.

NIACW 577 Leave the World Behind 08/11/2024

NIACW 575 Time Bandits 1982 07/28/2024

NIACW 575 Time Bandits 1982 Brothers Drew and Eric discuss the 1982 Terry Gilliam kids film “Time Bandits.” Neither brother were particularly thrilled but Eric thought it was a sweet kids movie and Drew found it both unpleasant and not a successful movie – it was a series of sketches with no satisfying wraparound story. Housekeeping starts at 43:24 during which they discuss movies and cats.

NIACW 574 The Island 2005 Brothers J and Eric continue our “Summer of Meh” with the 2005 Michael Bay Sci-Fi movie “The Island.” It’s beautiful and it’s well acted; however, it brings up interesting ethical questions which it does not answer. Housekeeping starts at about 36:00 and spends far too long confusing Airport vs Airplane! and Arthur Hailey vs Alex Hailey, then tick through movies they watched in the past few weeks.

NIACW 568 Sea of Trees 06/09/2024

NIACW 568 Sea of Trees Brothers J and Eric the Matthew McConaughey, Ken Watanabe, Naomi Watts film Sea of Trees. It’s kind of a bummer. But the brothers take some deep early tangents into the Aokigahara forest itself, the Aoki family (Devon, Steve, and Rocky), underground teppanyaki performance artist chefs, and memories of the fast casual chain restaurant Skippers. Technical note: J’s audio is pretty bad. It’s understandable but not ideal. The conversation will hopefully carry you through.

NIACW 565 The Bad Batch Seasons 1 and 2 The Bad Batch is a series that Jason doesn’t like (he hates Omega), Drew has problems with (too many recurring characters), but Eric enjoyed quite a bit.
