Episode #49: Legacy – Tucker & Dale vs. Evil

By Matt on Thursday, September 20, 2018

Good day everyone and welcome to yet another Reel Film Nerds podcast. Yep we aren’t going away that easy! Today Matt and Mike continue to gear up for their first Harvest Horror Fest with a Legacy cast of Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. The guys try to tell some jokes, but they fail miserably. Staying on topic alludes your hosts too. Matt is probably the biggest problem when it comes to staying on topic, sorry everyone. Discussion includes Avengers 4, side boob, PBR, the new Captain Marvel trailer, Fargo, woodchippers, and hillbilly hog! What a fun and odd conversation.

Tucker & Dale vs. Evil is a fun interesting take on the horror genre or comedy genre? Let’s just go with both. The writing is excellent, the acting is great, and the makeup/special effects are spot on. Mike gives the film a little above average score of 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Matt who is much better at rating movies (according to him) and not nearly as harsh as Mike gives it 4 out of 5 Reels.

Episode 50 is next! Can you believe it, we can’t. We thought for sure Mike would get mad at Matt and quit after only a few episodes, but he didn’t! Thanks, Mysterious Mike! What do the guys have in store, we have no idea, probably just more random off topic talk and maybe a movie review? Download next Tuesday’s episode to find out. Thanks again for listening and we will see you next week.

Episode #48: The Predator

By Matt on Tuesday, September 18, 2018

Welcome boys and girls to yet another podcast!!! Today Mike and Matt talk about a giant mess of a movie, The Predator directed by Shane Black. The guys stay fairly on topic for this one and basically rip this film apart. This movie is just flat out all over the place. Matt talks a bit about the many reshoots and controversies surrounding this movie while Mike just listens. He was really tired so we will let it slide this time. The guys also discuss the original Predator from 1987 and how much better it is, (if you want to hear more go back and listen to our Legacy cast on it Episode #21) sleep or lack of, the Android operating system, the Terminator, and lastly K2SO from Rogue One.

Matt and Mike had a ton of issues with this film but it was still fun. If you are not a diehard Predator fan like they are wait until this one comes out on Netflix or Redbox. It is just all over the place with tons of plot holes and parts of the film that are just flat out strange. We have that rare occurrence when the guys agree on a rating both Mike and Matt give The Predator 2.5 out of 5 Reels.

Like always thank you listening and spreading the word about our podcast to help us grow! Coming up on Thursday the guys review a fun horror film? comedy? both? Who knows we will all find out when the guys discuss and review Tucker & Dale vs Evil. Talk at you then!

It only took 47 episodes, but he has done it Matt gives Ghostbusters a perfect 5 out of 5 Reels!

Episode #46: Peppermint

By Matt on Tuesday, September 11, 2018

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to your first Reel Film Nerds pod of the week! Today your host’s Matt and Mike discuss Jennifer Garner’s return to the silver screen, Peppermint. Peppermint is your classic revenge story littered with tons of action scenes. Your hosts stick to the review at hand for the most part. Mike actually went off on a pretty solid tangent about Liam Neeson and his legacy of Taken films. Amazing, it was not Matt for once! Of course, he brought up Star Wars again but just for a little bit. Mike and Matt also discuss other revenge films they really enjoy like Man on Fire. For those of you looking for a discussion on Moviepass sorry. Maybe Mike will get Matt going on the next pod.

Mike and Matt both were not super impressed with this movie, but they did not think it was terrible either. It was just an average film. The acting was decent, the action was well done, the story is not great and has been repeated throughout cinema many times over, but it is not horrible either. Mike gives Peppermint 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt enjoyed the film as well but did have some issues with it especially how they ended it. He gives it 2.5 out of 5 Reels.

Coming up on Thursday is an incredible Legacy cast, Ghostbusters!!! No not the 2016 remake the original from 1984! Matt is super excited to talk about it and so is Mike. It is going to be a fun one. Thanks for listening and chat at you then!

Episode #45: Legacy – Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

By Matt on Thursday, September 6, 2018

Hi everybody and welcome to the Reel Film Nerds latest pod. Today the guys discuss a fun and crazy Legacy Cast, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro. The guys talk about journalism, Hunter S. Thompson, Tobey Maguire, and lots of trivia about the film. Don’t worry they get off topic too. Mike just keeps pushing a Moviepass discussion and Matt might have finally given up the good fight and dropped his subscription.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a wild film with an insane and drug riddled premise. The acting is amazing, the sets are fantastic, and it is shot beautifully. The guys once again agreed on a rating. Matt and Mike both give Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 4 out of 5 Reels. What do you think, is Matt really as dark as he sounds and should he stop reading Marvel Comics and start reading the dark and gritty world of DC? Wait hold on we talk about movies here, so what if he is dark?

Next Tuesday the guys will be talking about Jennifer Garner’s action revenge thriller Peppermint. It is nice to see her getting work again outside of the Capital One commercials! Lastly don’t forget we are still looking for suggestions for Episode #50 which is coming up SUPER fast. Email us your thoughts and suggestions or just email us to say hello. Chat at you next week!
