Summer's over, but has Spielberg's cinematic reign truly come to an end? With Disclosure Day earlier this year, it's hard for us to imagine a world without the man whose name was, is and will always be synonymous with cinema. Spielberg is now (and will probably remain for the foreseeable future) our thoroughly most-covered director here on Hard Ticket, with seven dedicated episodes and...

It's a hard ticket between Raiders of the Lost Ark and Inglourious Basterds . Which one will you watch? Let's decide! We're sending off Spielberg Summer with our biggest matchup yet: one of his all-time classics against what many would call Quentin Tarantino's best. The common thread? Punching Nazis. Man, I hate those guys. We also invited Spielberg aficionado Josh Brown back onto...

It’s a hard ticket between The Shining and The Phantom Carriage. Which one will you watch? Let’s decide! Decades before Jack Torrance would tear down the halls of the Overlook Hotel terrorizing his family, David Holm would take an axe to the only door standing between him and his own family. That’s right, the most famous scene from The Shining , and possibly Kubrick’s whole career, is stolen. But...

Jeff and Josh are tackling one of Spielberg's most popular flicks for Spielberg Summer. Did you know that Catch Me If You Can has been logged more times on Letterboxd than any other Spielberg movie? We're kinda baffled, actually. Could this be a true blind spot? So, this week, we're getting to the bottom of whether or not this crime caper truly warrants the phrase " What? You like...

All we know is... if you die in your fake body, you die in real life! James Cameron's technical marvel ma...

It's a hard ticket between The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Jaws 3-D . Which one will you watch? Let's decide! Actually, this ticket probably isn't very hard for most people. Nevertheless, we're continuing Spielberg Summer by taking a look at the legacy of two of the auteur's biggest blockbusters. One he actually returned for, the other he saw chummed up and thrown to the bloo...

Tristan hasn't seen The Hangover . You know what that means? It's his first turn on the hot seat of The Blind Spots, our miniseries where we determine conclusively whether or not a movie warrants the ancient phrase " What? You like movies and you've never seen ______??" What do you all think? Do you think The Hangover is a classic comedy blind spot that everyone should see? I...

It’s a hard ticket between Ready Player One and Free Guy . Which one will you watch? Let’s decide! Spielberg Summer continues, but they can’t all be winners. RP1 is surely one of the auteur’s more decisive works, but does his vision still prevail? We put it up against Free Guy to see whether a shinier veneer works better for this story if the exceptional(ly online) individual. And returning to the...

It's a hard ticket between Ice Princess and I, Tonya . Which one will you watch? Let's decide! That's right, it's a Disney flick vs. Allison Janney's shameless string of atomic f-bombs. What could these two movies possibly have in common besides the occasional pair of ice skates? Well, despite one being a very direct adaptation of the real-life Tonya Harding scandal, the other may be even more dir...

It's a hard ticket between Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Arrival . Which one will you watch? Let's decide! Spielberg Summer continues with the man's first stab at the extraterrestrial.

Our thoughts are... complicated, but we're more than happy to talk it out. So sit back and listen. 0:00...

It's a hard ticket between Saving Private Ryan and The Thin Red Line . Which one will you watch? Let's decide!
