All in Action
This week, we celebrate TC’s victory on this years Oscars competition with a pick direct from the man himself. This film received no Oscar nominations, but did rake in nearly $500 million dollars at the box office. And while John and Denny may have very much disliked it, at least TC did too. Godzilla Vs. Kong (2021), directed by Adam Wingard.
This week, we’re continuing with awards season films. The Best Picture Oscar nominees were released last week, so we’re going on a path to watch all of them before the ceremonies. This week, we built car! F1: The Movie (2025), directed by Joseph Kosinski.
This week, we go to the theaters to see was will most certainly be a frontrunner for best picture of 2025. This film blends action, drama, political commentary, and, most importantly, humor into a unique yet accessible joyride. See this one in the theaters if you can. One Battle After Another (2025), directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.
This week, we watch the third entry in the film franchise that is 23 years old and introduced fast zombies to the world. This film has been in development since shortly after the second entry in 2007, and it might be the first movie where the edit was influenced by choices made by the trailer team. 28 Years Later (2025), directed by Danny Boyle.
This week, we finish with the second film in the highest rated trilogy of all time. These films condense Tolkien’s novels into accessible blockbusters that don’t sacrifice depth. They also continues to have a tremendous impact on the artistry in filmmaking as well as in pop culture. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002), directed by Peter Jackson.

This week, we watch a huge cast of A-listers dive into peoples dreams. For business purposes. And you can jump between peoples minds. But limbo is always in Leo’s head. Don’t ask questions, just watch the cool action. Inception (2010), directed by Christopher Nolan.
This week, we watch the heady sci-fi action fantasy (insert any genre here) film that took the 90’s by storm. This film spawned countless imitators, including three inferior sequels, and everything about it still holds up today. The Matrix (1999), directed by the Wachowski’s.

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024), directed by Shawn Levy.
This week, to recognize the massive amounts of money Deadpool & Wolverine made this past weekend (and because TC is away at the Olympics), we are reposting our Deadpool episode recorded back in 2018. Deadpool (2016), directed by Tim Miller.

This week, we oldest/highest movie on the list. Celebrating its 70th anniversary this year, this film is a rare example of age, language, or length of a film not inhibiting its ability to feel modern, fast paced, funny, dramatic, action packed…it has it all. It is easy to see how all films have taken influence from this absolute classic. Seven Samurai (1954), directed by Akira Kurosawa.
This week, we watch a masterpiece of style. This slow-burn thriller bleeds cool from all sides, as each actor delivers a perfect performance and the soundtrack blares synths over LA at night. Drive (2011), directed by Nicholas Winding Refn.
This week, we watch a brutally realistic film that depicts the actual events of a person growing up in a favala in Rio. Violence, drugs, and crime dominate life in the poorest parts of the city, and the movie energetically and relentlessly re-tells the story. City of God (2002), directed by Fernando Meirelles and Katia Lund.
This week, we watch the fifth Mad Max film. George Miller is nearly 80 years old, and has been developing this post-apocalyptic world for 45 years at this point. This film shifts focus from Max to Furiosa, and while the director is in his twilight years, he is not lacking imagination or energy. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024), directed by George Miller.
