Pod Bay Doors – A Movie Podcast | Get Out, The Jordan Peele Duology – Part 1, Episode #168
Welcome to Shocktober!!! Jerry and Doug are kicking things off right with a two-part episode on Jordan Peele’s films, starting with his Oscar-winning Get Out (2017). Doug has already gone on record with his love for this one, putting it at #10 on his best films of the decade list, while Jerry finds more and […]
American Murder: The Family Next Door (2020)
There is a striking, and very current, commentary at work under Jenny Popplewell’s unsettling documentary American Murder: The Family Next Door, the story of the disappearance and murder of Shan’ann Watts and her daughters Bella (age 4) and CeCe (age 3). Watts was, we see, a person who seemed to live online. She smiles through […]
The Boys in the Band (2020)
Going into Netflix’s new version of Mart Crowley’s 1968 off-Broadway play The Boys in the Band, I promised myself that I would keep an open mind. This movie lands at an odd point for me because just a few weeks ago I did a piece about William Friedkin’s 1970 film version for my blog and […]
The Pod Bay Doors – A Movie Podcast | Divorce, Italian Style (1961), Episode #167
This episode, Doug and Jerry keep the lighter feeling going with a little spousal murder! It’s Divorce, Italian Style from 1961, a comedy about a man who wants to marry someone else, but since it’s Sicily, divorce isn’t an option. So grab your cartoonishly long cigarette holder and put on your sunglasses for Divorce, Italian […]
The Pod Bay Doors – A Movie Podcast | Three from Chuck Jones, Episode #166
This episode, Jerry and Doug go for some good, old fashioned insanity with three classic Looney Toons directed by Chuck Jones: The Long-Haired Hare, Duck Amuck and One Froggy Evening, to break up the seriousness of the last few weeks. They are three of the greatest animated shorts ever made, so grab your banjo, […]
Challenger: The Final Flight (2020)
A great number of reviews that I have read regarding Netflix’s four-part documentary Challenger: Final Flight are quick to criticize it for being just another talking-head historical recounting of familiar events without much new insight. Personally, I don’t mind the approach if I’m invested in the material, and when it comes to a story as […]
The Pod Bay Doors – A Movie Podcast, Episode #165 | Goodfellas (1990)
This episode, Doug and Jerry take a look at Martin Scorsese’s 3rd masterpiece: GoodFellas (1990), which is celebrating it’s 30th year. Join them as they follow Henry and Karen through the kitchen of the Copa all the way to picking up the paper, angry about egg noodles and ketchup.[CLICK ABOVE TO LISTEN] #goodfellas #robertdeniro #mafia […]
The Social Dilemma (2020)
Here’s a bombshell for you. Social media is the worst, most hedonistic piece of technology the world has ever known. It sucks away your time, your attention and your awareness of the world around, and alters your conscious state into an addiction so powerful that it renders the way you think, the way you work, […]
