Ep 410 – Annhiliation – Jon Schnepp
*FILMS DISCUSSED: ANNIHILATION, A WRINKLE IN TIME, COBRA KAI, FANTASTIC BEASTS 2, THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN LIVES: WHAT HAPPENED?* Chris and Graham welcome first-time guest Jon Schnepp, into the ATC Studio. Jon liked Annihilation more than Chris and Graham. Chris family liked Wrinkle In Time more than Jon. Cobra Kai Youtube series looks great! Fantastic Beasts 2 looks fun. There are many Oscar films to choose from on DVD/VOD. Two good films this weekend so don’t let this episode fall into a #BloodGulch.
Star Trek: Into Darkness is a whole lot of fun. If you liked the 2009 reboot, you’ll like this. Is it better than Iron Man 3? Hell yes. In retrospect, I may have been slightly generous in that review.
DetailsWhen I heard they were making a movie of The Great Gatsby I was a. weirded out b. appalled c. skeptical and THEN I found it was going to be in 3D and was, genuinely, filled with random rage. It just got worse.
DetailsEven though we get a mob film of the likes we’ve seen before, it is still to our benefit that we get it at all. Why, you ask? Because this mob film stars Michael Shannon as the notorious hit man, Richard Kuklinski, and he is downright creepy, in the best possible way.
DetailsLo and Behold, in 1994, Turner Classic Movies arrived. Ever since then, people have been enjoying, and re-enjoying, classic films in the comfort of their own homes. And even better, four years ago, TCM started their Classic Film Festival here in Los Angeles, and I had the utmost privilege to attend. It was rather kind of Allan Havey to give me his other pass, and I was able to attend most of last weekend.
DetailsThis sequel also ranks as more enjoyable than Iron Man 2, in my opinion. I think where the second installment under-used Mickey Roarke’s character and just generally didn’t exceed any sequel expectations, this third film delivers more one those points, as well as adding more humor, making it simply more fun.
