Gabriel Colwell

Depravity and virtue; wrath and forgiveness; and “show me how you do it!” One of the best films ever.

That was cool when JEJ turns into a snake in Conan

I was hoping you guys would talk a bit about the Safdies and Uncut Gems. They seem to be influenced heavily by Ferrara (both tonally and stylistically) and Bad Lieutenant in particular. If you remember for Shadow Wolves I would love to hear your thoughts on that angle.

David D.

Oh hell yeah.

Mijo

Ah cool to see another FSU grad turned janitor. I don't know anything about the film school so thanks for sharing that bit

I agree it’s nice to see the revival of video rental shops. A place called Vidiots just opened up in Eagle Rock. They have an in house theater and a couple of rooms with the old school racks of titles. I love seeing it but I haven’t owned an actual dvd or blu ray player in years…kinda wish I held onto one so I could relive the ritual of scanning the box covers. I remember the vhs box artwork better than a lot of the movies themselves.

I had an aunt who was a nun. She had a motorcycle too. She worked in the school system after leaving the habit, and has visited all 7 continents in her retirement. Thank you for reading.

So I just rewatched, I was wrong. This is a good film. A lot of the acting still stinks tho.

Ron Don Volante

I came away from the movie understanding that the mobster / bet taker got shot at the end. And thinking that surely he told someone about the now $120k debt owed him, so it wouldn’t just be wiped out.

Jem Appru

He is not funny at all lol

John McClane

Vikings chiefs Super Bowl

John McClane

I’m listening to this right after I saw a nun at the dollar store and was awestruck!!!! It’s true ya never see them in the wild anymore. I tried to eavesdrop on her convo with the cashier, but ultimately, it was too boring. That’s all for Nun Watch!

Michael Pemulis

He says he doesn't even remember writing Cujo, so this should be a fresh experience for him.

Ben Kirst

Re: Stephen King doing more writing - I can report that I saw him at the Prudential Center mall in Boston last weekend (I wouldn’t have known it was him except for some lady telling an old guy in a Red Sox hat how much she loved his work) and he was carrying an unopened package of yellow legal pads. Probably to write CuJo 2.

Gil Slits

Blown Away is a pretty good movie

PizzaCrustPunk

Great character study film, but a lot of the performances seems lacking. Not sure how it has 4.5 stars on prime. I would say it’s not a good film but still better the a marvel film, or most of the crap these days. I LOVE STANGER FOREVER

PizzaCrustPunk

The Dong/Hog cut is on Amazon Prime

Dirk Dribbler

For a majority of the flight they were watching the Super Mario movie

Dirk Dribbler

Re: watching movies on airplanes - on my last flight someone a few rows ahead of me was the only person that left their TV screen on after the plane landed. Everyone in my section was treated to Wedding Crashers, specifically the scene where Vince Vaughn is receiving an over the pants handjob, until we were allowed to exit the plane.

Bob Brown

Back in the day mom’s cousin brought me and other kids in the fam to classics like Die Hard II, Back to the Future III and Problem Child. A part of me died two months ago when I saw him and he said, “You gotta see The Sound of Freedom.”

John King

One of my FSU film professors Paul Cohen was the distributor for Bad Lieutenant. He showed us the movie in class. This was back in 1996. Cohen was a cool guy overall. I don’t remember him telling us any real BTS. I was just looking him up and found this old article about him partnering up with Julius Nasso years ago. Thought you guys might find this interesting. https://variety.com/2001/film/news/nasso-cohen-make-theirs-manhattan-1117792003/amp/

Spending my labor day watching all 4 irl

glad to finally check this one off my list it was great! Port of Call New Orleans is one of my favorite Nic Cage performances, was just trying to think which one had the better ending but I can't decide they're both perfect

As a recovered junkie (and janitor) I gotta say, Keitel's technique for smoking off of tin foil needs some work.

Conor Hunter

This is the first selection in a month where the boyz haven't immediately offered a disclaimer about how shitty the movie is, or how miserable it was to watch, the vibes are high!

Michael Pemulis

I just read Gerald Petievich's Shakedown, which was really good, and I think a better book than To Live and Die in LA. Petievich writes believable cops and criminals and doesn't over complicate his plots, drawing from his own law enforcement background, and the stories are compelling and efficiently told. George V Higgins, a Boston lawyer turned author, who wrote The Friends of Eddie Coyle and Cogan's Trade, pulls off the same kind of honest criminal dialogue and situations, though his writing is definitely more stylized.

This podcast should be called ActuallyAboutDadz

I went to see this on the big screen at the New Beverly in LA last year. Throughout the movie, there was a guy sitting near me who was laughing maniacally at things onscreen that—while over the top in many instances—didn’t seem particularly funny. When the lights came up, the laughing man was revealed to be Harvey Keitel.

FiddlersGreenDay

Hunted is so god damn good.

Joe B

The fact that the Rodgers vividly remembers Francesca’s name and her horrible friends…I can relate. Now I know that’s not what you ever want to hear - but I do think the majority of listeners are 100% behind you boyz on the technology rants.

Then as an encore, watch White Noise (2005) which also stars Michael Keaton but has nothing to do with the Don Delilo novel of that name.

alex d

Although I found this interesting, you deserve a swirlie

Andy P

Made the same mistake. Were you able to find the original anywhere?

Andrew Del Monte

In Game6, DeLillo recycled a lot of the same dialogue and situations that he used in his novel Cosmopolis. As a result, Game6 and Cronenberg's Cosmopolis weirdly have a lot in common. Game6 also has a lot in common with Birdman: in both movies Michael Keaton is trying to put on a doomed play and dealing with an angry daughter and an antagonistic theater critic. So if anyone wants a very odd triple feature, you could watch 1. Cosmopolis 2. Game6 3. Birdman And it will be like watching the narrative of Cosmopolis evolve into Birdman, as if the screenplay went through so many changes it became something completely different. Unfortunately 2/3 of these moves suck if you ask me (Game6 being the outlier). 0 out of 3 found this interesting.

alex d

Heads up (not sure if they mention in episode yet): the Tubi Bad Lieutenant copy is the R-rated version and not the original NC-17. Don't be like me and get to the credits wondering "wait a sec, I thought Harvey was supposed to hang dong in this??"

Ron Don Volante

Great memories and happy bday to your old man. Early 90’s baseball taught me never to pay for parking no matter how far you have to walk and regardless of the high likelihood your secret spot would get you towed.

I gotta share a dad story...we all grew up enormous Met fans in NJ (and Mike and the Mad Dog listeners)...my dad, who was a former NYC taxi driver in his 20s, HATED driving into the city but he he would take us to like two Met games a year. There is one exit for Shea Stadium off the White Stone Expressway (or Grand Central - I forget) and for a decade at least, the sign was covered by a fucking tree, and if you missed it you had to drive all the way around through traffic adding like another hour to the trip (and this was before GPS telling you when to turn)...my dad missed this exit nearly every time because he couldn't see it. He would rage like thunder, "MOTHERFUCKING GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!" just silencing everyone in the car, and then just cursing the rest of the way ("how is there one motherfucking exit for this motherfucking stadium!?". It was practically a tradition and he never found humor it...btw, it's my pops birthday...happy birthday dad! love ya!
