Episode 257 - American Assassin

This week Darren Aronofsky’s divisive film, Mother! (2017), causes more of its characteristic controversy on Movie Podcast Weekly, Episode 257. Jason and Andy (who actually saw the film) fight with Karl and Ryan who did not. Draw your conclusions; make your own decision. We also bring you a rather short and underwhelming Feature Review of American Assassin (2017). We also fight about “La La Land” and a bunch of other things that I don’t care to write about here.

If you’re new to our show… Movie Podcast Weekly typically features four hosts — Jason, Andy, Karl and Geek Cast Ry — along with frequent guests. We give you our verdicts on at least one new movie release from the current year that’s currently playing in theaters, as well as several mini reviews of whatever we’ve been watching lately. New episodes release every single week! Continue reading →

Episode 255 - Brigsby Bear

Welcome to another Movie Podcast Weekly “Lost Episode.” In Episode 255, your favorite movie podcast hosts bring you three Feature Reviews of Good Time (2017) and Brigsby Bear (2017) and Dave Made a Maze (2017). Well, OK. Only Jason does, but the other hosts are present … somewhat. This is definitely an episode for MPW fans: It has Jason, Andy, Karl and Ryan. They bicker about “Brimstone.” Karl pontificates about the OLED market. Jay laments the loss of Horror director Tobe Hooper, and we just have an all around good time. (Get it? “Good time?”) Join us!

NOTE: Episode 255 is an MPW “Lost Episode.” This episode was recorded on August 28, 2017, and should have released on August 30, 2017.

Episode 251 - A Ghost Story

Here is one of Jason’s all-time favorite episode of Movie Podcast Weekly… In Episode 251, we are joined by one of our foremost guest favorites, William Rowan Jr. (of The Sci-Fi Podcast). He helps us with our Feature Reviews of Atomic Blonde (2017) and A Ghost Story (2017). But the Main Event of this show is Jason’s Big (Belated) Birthday Bash: MPW’s Top 11-20 All-Time Favorite Movies! This is a must-listen episode because it is the first time you will hear the Top 10 All-Time Favorite Movies of both Geek Cast Ry and William Rowan Jr. (In fact, it’s an MPW Exclusive because William Rowan Jr. has never formally revealed his Top 10 anywhere else before!) Ryan also gives you a simple way to make his Christmas shopping list this year, and it pertains to “Die Hard” (1988). Join us!

And as noted in the preface… this episode contains major plot spoilers for the Coen Brothers’ 1996 feature film, “Fargo,” as well as for Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Godfather: Part II” from 1974, and of course, for M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Sixth Sense” from 1999. And these spoilers occur during yet another debate about spoilers. So, if you don’t want to be spoiled for those films, you can skip over this section by looking at the time stamps in the show notes below. Continue reading →

Episode 254 - Logan Lucky

There’s nothin’ you can do. It’s a total eclipse of the podcast… Interestingly,
Episode 254 of Movie Podcast Weekly was recorded on Monday, August 21, 2017, which was reportedly the first time the continental United States had this sort of perspective for this spectacle since 1918 — 99 years ago! So, we talk about that natural phenomenon a little bit. We also bring you Feature Reviews of Wind River (2017) and Logan Lucky (2017) and The Hitman’s Bodyguard (2017) and Girls Trip (2017). Oh, and you should probably know that Andy was not with us for this episode, so join us!

NOTE: Episode 254 is an MPW “Lost Episode.” As noted above, this episode was recorded on August 21, 2017. It was supposed to release on August 23, 2017.
