The MovieFilm Podcast

With BLACK WIDOW now in theaters and marking the solo debut of Scarlett Johansson's superspy superhero, we set our commentary time machine to 2010 and Natasha's first appearance in IRON MAN 2. There's lots to say about this entry from MCU's primordial era, and we go through all of it, with production history, behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and lots of laughs as we watch the polarizing sequel directed by Jon Favreau.

Today we celebrate INDEPENDENCE DAY's 25 anniversary! With the Roland Emmerich-directed alien invasion opus hitting the quarter century mark this weekend, we thought it was a perfect time to hop in our fighter jets and give the space monsters a hearty, "Welcome to Earth!" Listen separately or watch along as we talk through our memories of this seminal smash hit starring Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum, and Bill Pullman, pausing to appreciate all the ways we love it so very much.

The latest FAST & FURIOUS flick is in theaters and...we haven’t seen it. So in lieu of a spoiler-filled discussion about Dominic Toretto’s latest wheels-out escapade, we engage in some introspection on the enduring appeal of the FAST saga, while also taking some big swings on what likely happens in the new film. But that’s not all! Hear discussions on the trailers for Netflix’s new MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE animated revival and the DC Comics sequel THE SUICIDE SQUAD! Plus: The Lord of the Rings gets an animated prequel, George R.R. Martin has GAME OF THRONES regrets (join the club, George), and more thoughts on Marvel’s Disney+ series LOKI!

Grab your helmet and take to the skies with the MovieFilm boys as we celebrate 30 years of THE ROCKETEER! Disney's superhero opus –– directed by Joe Johnston and starring Billy Campbell in the title role –– may have gone ignored during its theatrical release, but with it hitting the three decade mark this week, it felt like a perfect time to talk through it and take stock of what makes it such a gem. Listen separately or watch along with us as we go through the production history, share interesting anecdotes, and just generally have a blast with one of our favorite flicks!

The God of Mischief is back, and so are the MovieFilm boys to unpack the premiere episode of LOKI, the all-new Disney+ streaming series starring Tom Hiddleston! But that's not all: INDIANA JONES 5 has actually begun filming with Harrison Ford back in the hat! More dirt is being flung on the late MoviePass service! Plus: Thoughts on the trailers for SNAKE EYES: G.I. JOE ORIGINS and Marvel's ETERNALS. All that, plus Listener Letters, Recent Watches, and all the usual fun and antics you've come to expect from us.

For our latest commentary track, the MovieFilm boys mark a quarter-century of one of the greatest action movies of the '90s as we talk through director Micheal Bay's THE ROCK. Listen separately or watch along as we thrill to Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage trading banter and blows with baddies in the Bay Area, with plenty of anecdotes, observations and digressions along the way.

With Hollywood announcing mergers galore, the MovieFilm boys examine the ramifications of the Amazon purchasing MGM and AT&T spinning off WarnerMedia. But that’s not all! Plus: Remembering Charles Grodin, INDIANA JONES 5 fills out its cast, and J.J. Abrams’ STAR WARS regrets, and more!

Prepare to test your might! With the arrival of the all-new, all-gory MORTAL KOMBAT in theaters this week, we thought it was a perfect time to dip into the archives and revisit the movie that started it all, 1995’s MORTAL KOMBAT (hereby redubbed KLASSIC KOMBAT). Watch along with us or just listen on its own as we delve into the history of the videogame adaptation and determine whether a quarter-century of time has been kind to it.
