We also bring you four Feature Reviews of London Has Fallen and Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and Zootopia and The Assassin. You’ll also get to hear Ryan’s remarkable story about the Wendy’s “Frosty”; Jason’s distasteful but halfway decent idea for a Harold Ramis “Ghostbusters” remake; and even a little bit about a Mogwai Fight Club’s rules… Join us!

Episode 178

Episode 171

Happy New Year! It’s 2016, and it’s our first edition of Movie Podcast Weekly for this year… This is Episode 171. We don’t have Karl the acting Irishman with us, but your other three hosts hold down the fort and bring you Feature Reviews of The Hateful Eight (2016) and Daddy’s Home (2015). And due to listener request, we also bring you a Tarantino Retrospective, where we rank QT’s eight films in order of greatness, according to our personal preferences. (This leads to a great debate over “Kill Bill Vols. 1 and 2.”) And our main event for this episode is our overview of MPW’s Most Anticipated Movies of 2016!

Also, thanks to a guy named Andy, he has provided a PDF version of the special edition playbill that attendees receive at the 70mm Roadshow Presentation of “The Hateful Eight” by downloading it here: The Hateful Eight Roadshow Playbill (courtesy of Andy) Continue reading
