There's a new Spider-Man in the theatre so it's the perfect excuse to revisit the fantastic, yet maligned, third Sam Raimi film in his trilogy. This film ended a series but people came around to it a bit more a decade later when Tom Holland became the new Spider-Man and people realized this movie was funny on purpose and that the melodrama is something that is missing from the MCU.Spider-Man 3 is directed by Sam Raimi. It stars Tobey McGuire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, Thomas Haden Church, Topher Grace, Elizabeth Banks, Bryce Dallas Howard, James Cromwell, Rosemary Harris and J.K.

Spider-Man 3 (2007) w/ Audens and egg_brained

This is a big one. Batman AND Superman in the same movie? What could go wrong? To many, nothing went wrong and the three hour extended cut of Zack Snyder's superhero team up movie is a a great film. However, those people are wrong. This is possibly my most hated movie ever. I will hand it to them that the longer version is a more coherent movie. Snyder fans to this day like the auteur vision of this film and with films such as Zack Snyder's Justice League getting a proper full release they will still be in the replies of every social media post demanding to Restore the Snyderverse.I am joined by Tim and Tommy from Haven't Scene It to discuss this film that we all did not have much fun with.You can follow Haven't Scene It on <a href="https://x.com/sceneitpod">Twitter</a>.

With one of our greats, Sam Neill, passing away I brough back Dalton Pike to the show to talk about his favourite Jurassic Park film, Joe Johnston's Jurassic Park III. The movie had a mixed reception upon release. However, Spielberg's mixed reception of The Lost World has had people debate for many years on which Jurassic Park sequel is the superior film.This episode has Dalton explain his love for talking animal films to my absolute amusement.

In tribute of the late Sam Neill, I brought Maeve back onto the show to talk about Paul W.S. Anderson's sci-fi horror cult film Event Horizon. It was critically blasted upon release. Decades later, it has influenced a lot of sci-fi video games such as Dead Space and the iconic scene of Sam Neill using a piece of paper to illustrate how a wormhole works has been used in in movies like Interstellar.We also find a way to shit on the Miami Dolphins this episode.

Welcome to Jackass!To celebrate Jackass: Best and Last the supposedly final installment of the slapstick comedy franchise, Dalton is back on the show to chat about a series that both mean a lot to the both of us.Jackass was considered low brow initially.

Jackass: The Movie (2002) and Jackass Franchise Discussion w/ Dalton Pike of Outside the Frame and Sick Flicks

Happy Pride Month!Surfers, bank heists and homoeroticism are at the centre of Kathryn Bigelow's film about masculinity. This Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves is a true cult classic. I'm joined by Daberhasher to explore this wild movie with an absolutely hilarious discussion.Point Break is directed by Kathryn Bigelow, produced by James Cameron, written by W. Peter Iliff and maybe James Cameron. It stars Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze, Gary Busey, Lori Petty, John C. McGinley, James LeGros, Anthony Kiedis, Lee Tergeson and Tom Sizemore.

Point Break (1991) w/ Daberhasher

Hayao Miyazaki's Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind premiered in Japan to good reviews. A year later, an awful cut of the film emerged in North America called Warriors of the Wind which misread the tone of the movie and featured a bad English dub. That bad dub changed anime in the west because Miyazaki's hatred of it had him and his people threaten Harvey Weinstein with a prop katana when he wanted to cut Princess Mononoke over a decade later. Miyazaki's films now have quality English dubs, which exposed audiences to anime and eventually Nausicaä received a proper uncut Western release in 2005.To discuss the uncut version of the film as well as the bad Warriors of the Wind edit I am joined by my co-writer at GG Tribune Amity Gilmour!You can follow Amity on <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/amityblamity.bsky.social">Bluesky</a>MoviePod Socials: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/moviepodfilm/">⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://x.com/Moviepodfilm">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/moviepod.bsky.social">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@moviepodreclaim">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> Support the show! <a href="https://ko-fi.com/moviepod">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ko-Fi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>Please rate, review and subscribe!

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984) and Warriors of the Wind (1985) w/ Amity Gilmour

No children were killed in helicopter accidents during this particular John Landis production.This week on the show I'm joined by Charles Star to discuss the spy comedy Spies Like Us! It was received pretty weakly but on its 40th anniversary many articles popped up praising the Cold War setting of the kind of movie that does not get made much anymore.I was shocked there was a Paul McCartney song attached to this film.Spies Like Us was directed by child murderer John Landis. It stars Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd, Donna Dixon, Bruce Davison, William Prince, Tom Hatten, Bernie Casey, and Steve Forrest. Featuring cameos by Costa-Gavras, Ray Harryhausen, Joen Coen, Sam Raimi, Martin Brest, Bob Hope, B.B. King, Michael Apted, Larry Cohen, Edwin Newman, Frank Oz and Terry Gilliam.

Spies Like Us (1985) w/ Charles Star from No Homework Podcast

They finally made a new James Bond video game! In celebration of the release of 007 First Light, I'm using it as a chance to discuss my favourite film franchise again. I am joined by my GG Tribune editor Matt Fresh to discuss a film that was ahead of its time in depicting the role media uses technology to manipulate the public and manufacture consent to justify military action.It also has Pierce Brosnan eject a terrorist from the back of his jet into another terrorists plane and Michelle Yeoh kicking dudes in the face. Tomorrow Never Dies is directed by Roger Spottiswoode. It stars Pierce Brosnan, Jonathan Pryce, Michele Yeoh, Teri Hatcher, Joe Don Baker, Desmond Llewelyn, Ricky Jay and Judi Dench.

However, as time as gone on and the brand of Star Wars has become corporate, the pure auteur vision of George Lucas has been comended.Ryan and I go in-depth talking about the various Glup Shitto's and problematic elements that make up this wild film that we are both fond of as well as ones such as Jar Jar Binks that we are mixed on.

In time for the new film, I am joined by Tim and Tommy from the Haven't Scene It podcast to discuss Paul W.S. Anderson's 1995 film Mortal Kombat! It was the first video game movie that ever made actual money. However, the lack of the series signature gore and violence as well as the cheap acting had people criticize this film upon release.

Mortal Kombat (1995) w/ Tim Sestito and Tommy Thevenet from Haven't Scene It

It was a forgotten film made by a fertilizer salesman on a bet in 1966. It fell into complete obscurity until it was discovered and riffed on in a classic episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Now the film has a reputation as being the worst film ever made which of course gives it a unique kind of second life thanks to fans of bad cinema. It has a cult following which has led to a Kickstarter sequel and a prequel film.To discuss this atrocious film I am joined again by MLYP.

This week we are covering a comic book movie that divided critics upon its release. However, the unique visual style makes it stand apart from so many other homogenized super hero movies.

Xanadu (1980) w/ Ethan

For its 40th anniversary, I am joined again by Andrew Joe Potter to discuss one of his favourite films: the Jim Henson puppet fantasy film staring Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie. The film got mixed reviews when it came out and was not a box office hit. Home video releases and a generation that grew up on the film helped propel this fantasy journey into becoming a cult classic.

Labyrinth (1986) w/ Andrew Joe Potter

With the new Super Mario Galaxy Movie on the way we are going back in time to the first live-action video game movie ever made: Super Mario Bros. with Bob Hoskins, John Leguizamo, Samantha Mathis and Dennis Hopper. The creative freedoms taken by the married director pair deviate wildly from the game and for decades people considered this to be one of the worst movies ever made. However, the liberties and production design are so excessive that it has a cult following and a very expensive boxset that die-hard fans can enjoyed.
