Ep. 17 – X-men Apocalypse

Journey with us to the 80s as a team of 20 year-old 40 year-olds band together to take on the mutant embodiment of Old Testament wrath in X-men 6: Apocalypse. Featuring a plot filled with origins, this punktastic take on a 90s comic-arc sees Bryan Singer’s attempt to rewrite X-men continuity post First Class and Days of Future Past to middling returns, in a film that isn’t nearly as reverent to X-men canon as was Deadpool 2. This episode we are joined by my brother, Juan. X-men? Oh, he knows X-men.

Ep. 16 – Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets

Join Pablo, Erica, and our guest, Joe, as we travel through the stars for a discussion of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, an excessively French film that should have starred Rihanna, but instead stars two adult children. The most expensive independent movie of all time, Valerian comes ripped off from the same comic as was Star Wars, though neither film accurately depicts the source material. Directed, written, and produced by Luc Besson (The Fifth Element, Taken 1, 2, and 3, etc.), this movie is a barrage of colors, LED lights, and plot holes, and can stand up to any U.S.-made, style-over-substance action film.

It’s part one in a three-part series, in which we discuss all of the films nominated for Best Picture at the stuffy, overly formal Academy Awards to save you from having to bore your own pants off.

Ep. 12 – Speed 2

https://soundcloud.com/cinamazingchats/ep-12-speed-2

It’s a low-intensity, high-stakes Lolita homage disguised as a disaster film in a sequel that even Keanu Reeves knew to skip, in Speed 2, a film that safely plays by the rules and doesn’t take any unnecessary chances! Thrill as Willem Dafoe tries again and again to mildly annoy human charisma-suck Jason Patric, including the slowest jetski chase ever filmed, the punniest harbor-crashing sequence, a man breaking not one but two arms, and a vacationing Sandra Bullock as herself.
