We discuss Francis Ford Coppola’s The Conversation and the Steven Soderbergh silent, black and white cut of Raiders of the Lost Ark.
We return from our long hiatus to discuss John Ford’s elegiac revisionist Western The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and the Steve Martin remake of The Pink Panther.
We’re back for the first time in a long time, with a discussion of Abbas Kiarostami’s seminal quasi-documentary Close-Up and Mike Myer’s era-defining comedy Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Also, Rob is pretty sure he mixed up Steven Wright and Steven Weber, but he is too lazy to go back and check. Only one of them was … Continue reading #57: Close-Up/Austin Powers → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2023/02/06/57-close-up-austin-powers-2/

We’ve been on a bit of a hiatus as we’ve been pursuing our post-grad degrees (Rob to help the nation’s youth, Matt to imprison them) but Rob forgot he had this one sitting on his hard drive for, like, several months. He doesn’t remember if he edited it, but he does remember he did an … Continue reading #56: Tetsuo/Hard Boiled → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2023/01/23/56-tetsuo-hard-boiled-2/

The boys get wistful with Wong Kar Wai’s classic In the Mood for Love and then blow some shit up with the dark-as-night Michael Caine revenge flick Get Carter.
We double-dip into existential horror with the German Expressionist masterpiece The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and the VOD cheapie The Last Lovecraft: Relic of Cthulhu.
This month’s picks present two, uh, dissimilar responses to evil in the world. In the first, Carol Reed’s classic postwar noir The Third Man, Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles reunite a decade after Citizen Kane to wade into a morass of moral ambiguity from which no one emerges clean. In Sylvester Stallone’s Cannon Films copaganda … Continue reading #53: The Third Man/Cobra → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2022/05/26/53-the-third-man-cobra/
Join us for our April discussion of The Man Who Would Be King, John Huston’s Connery/Caine joint that’s simultaneously a pretty great movie about racism and also pretty racist. We also take a look at the film that killed the SNL movie, MacGruber – Rob’s favorite movie about Will Forte dancing around with a piece … Continue reading #52: The Man Who Would Be King/MacGruber → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2022/04/30/52-the-man-who-would-be-king-macgruber/
We take a turn for the despondent with slow-core Soviet auteur Andrei Tarkovsky’s oddball memoir Mirror and then cool off with the better-than-Black Knight Martin Lawrence crime comedy Blue Streak.
Our friend Jared joins us as a guest, because he’s who we could get, as we descend into madness twice over, with the seminal Australian New Wave freakout Wake in Fright and the forgotten NBA cross-dressing comedy Juwanna Mann. We also forget Ben Affleck played Batman, which probably says something about what we thought of … Continue reading #50: Wake in Fright/Juwanna Mann → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2022/02/26/50-wake-in-fright-juwanna-mann/

We take a look back at the highs and lows of 2021 with David Lowery’s ethereal chivalric saga The Green Knight and the LeBron James-led IP-extravaganza Space Jam: A New Legacy.

Join us down for a winter on the Bay as we tackle two entries in perhaps the biggest, dumbest, loudest franchise in Hollywood history, 2007’s Transformers and 2017’s Transformers: The Last Knight.

Right on time for Halloween, we bring you a horror double feature with John Carpenter’s goretastic all-timer The Thing and the quasi-amateur embarrassment that is somehow still not the worst entry in the Friday the 13th franchise despite inexplicably being set in outer space, Jason X.

We’ve got two tales of a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown with Ingmar Bergman’s arthouse classic Persona and this year’s religious mind-bender Saint Maud.

We conclude our month(s???) of comfort food as Howard Hawks invites us to witness just how bad the early days of flight sucked/ruled with Only Angels Have Wings and Shane Black tries to wedge some personality into the MCU with Iron Man 3.

We begin a month of nice, easy, comfortable movies with the buddy road movie Midnight Run, starring Robert de Niro and the late, great Charles Grodin (recorded before his passing). Then Matt proves he didn’t understand the assignment with the Ralph Fiennes/Uma Thurman spy-show adaptation The Avengers, a film that proves its legacy as “no, … Continue reading #42: Midnight Run/The Avengers (1998) → https://werejustaskingquestions.wordpress.com/2021/05/30/42-midnight-run-the-avengers-1998/
