The ONLY Podcast about Movies

We slip into a conversation about Ezra Edelman's 7+ hour documentary like a perfectly fitted leather glove. Joined by former lawyer turned successful screenwriter Melissa London Hilfers (https://twitter.com/melissahilfers) we try to crack the case of how long a piece of string is and what defines a film. Along the way, we might just figure out how we feel about the Juice and if he's actually related to Bart Simpson.

In this weeks monster-sized podcast we go big or go home with massive special guest CJ Johnson (@CjSydney) to talk about Nacho Vigalondo’s latest film Colossal. But this three-way Kaiju battle takes a huge turn when all three reviewers agree on the movies large problems, but have enormous variations in experiencing this gargantuan tail on a personal level. Its winner takes all and to the victor goes any remaining “big” title puns.

Life... uh... finds a way... into Matt's apartment! This week as we discuss Daniel Espinosa's new film, we're hitting the big issues! Such as the pitfalls of stupid people with Ph D.'s, some potential whitewashing in Sony's Extra-terrestrial universe, and weather or not this film is a Venom prequel in disguise?!?. You know... all the regular stuff when you sit down with a friend to talk about Life. :) Drop us a line at onlymoviepodcast@gmail.com to tell us your thoughts, request a film, or explain how coolant works!

This week we go full beast-mode as we review Disney's latest live action adaptation. Sadly Shahir was chased away by CGI wolves, so Matt is joined by special guest Co-Host Jessica Tucker (@mothatucka) who's first cinematic experience was the animated classic of the same name. Does this version live up to the hype? Will Matt side with team Gaston? And what esoteric conundrum lay within Jess's 7 pages of highly detailed notes?!? Be our guest and find out!

Our trilogy of live shows comes to a glorious end in the freezing tundra that is Boston Mass at PAX East 2017! In this third and final edition of our "critically acclaimed" panel, we touch on what game properties would make the best films, steps filmmakers can take in the future to strive for the first Oscar nominated video game movie, and start things off with a really great M. Bison quote! Sadly Shahir couldn't be in attendance, so we get by with a little help from our friends Red Charyszyn (Sikelia Productions), James Portnow (Extra Credits) and Luke Peterschmidt (Fun to 11). Also as this was a live show, please keep in mind our audio quality is a little worse for wear. Thank you kindly :) See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a swan song for Weapon X as we head back into the superhero genre for "Logan". We're joined by Black Men Can't Jump In Hollywood's Jerah Milligan (@jerahmilligan), who stops by the studio to talk about how the 10th film in the X-Men franchise quietly does something that Shahir's been asking for since we started this podcast. Listen in to find out what that is! NOTE: We dive into spoilers very early, so please see the film first on this one!

Shahir invites Matt over to his apartment for some hypnotizing shenanigans as the guys try to figure out what a micro-aggression, how to deflect subtle racism and whether Jordan Peele should direct a Marvel movie (the correct answer is no!).

With all the confusion both at the Oscars and during Matt (and the TOPAM studio's) move... we opted out of the craziness for the week to bring you a review of a film that you may not have heard of this awards season... but you really should have! Joined again by the illustrious Esther Park, we dig deep into The Handmaiden, culture clashing, and sex with cephalopods!

Riddle me this.... which is the best of the three Batman movies we've reviewed on the show so far? Hint, it's not Batman V Superman. The master builders are back at it again with returning guest Jessica Tucker (@MothaTucka) and this time they're trying to figure out the magic formula to the Lego Cinematic Universe.
