Can You Give Me A Flick?

Send us Fan Mail To wrap up his favourite re-imagining for the countdown, Nic delivers us an unlikely flick. In 2000 the Coen Brothers delivered us a strange take on Homer's Odyssey by giving us O Brother, Where Art Thou? Bryce has picked a Coen Brothers film on this podcast before, but will this one be even remotely to his liking? 

Send us Fan Mail Before we were introduced to the Bale's and Pattinson's of the world, there was Michael Keaton. The man that many still consider to be THE Batman, thanks to the wonderful vision of Tim Burton. The question is, will Nic find Bryce's childhood hero as charming and alluring as he does? 

Send us Fan Mail For the 50th episode of this podcast, Bryce and Nic took on Nolan's Interstellar for a brutal takedown. Fast forward over 70 episodes and Nolan is back with his 2026 epic, a modern interpretation of Homer's Odyssey. Nic was basically forced to like it in order to suit the countdown, but will Bryce be on board? 

At the top of the horror remake boom, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was the first cab off the rank and made an incredible amount of money in spite of its critical reception. As time has gone on, it's become somewhat of a modern horror darling. But will Nic feel the same way? 

In a slight plot twist, Nic follows up his Seven Samurai with an unexpected re-imagining in 1998's A Bug's Life. Pixar has come a long way since 1998, but is it for better or worse? 

In 1974, Director Tobe Hooper shocked the world by introducing them to his micro budget horror film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Today, it is considered one of the all time greatest horror films ever made and Bryce wholeheartedly agrees. Will Nic find some enjoyment here, or is this film too grim and disgusting for his more artistic taste?

To kick off our remakes/re-imaginings countdown, Nic picks a 3 and a half hour classic in the 1956 Seven Samurai. Will Bryce be bewildered by this landmark in cinema, or has time been unkind to this Japanese epic?

For Bryce's favourite bad movie and the final film of the countdown, we take a look at a 1991 cult classic infamously titled Drop Dead Fred. The critics hated this movie, but will Nic find any merit? 

In a NEVER SEEN BEFORE event on the podcast, Nic gives Bryce an extremely controversial film followed by the documentary of the making of! Will the added context make this a success, or will it only infuriate Bryce due to the extra legwork? 

After a slow burner last week, Bryce looks to push the pace this week with this overlooked action thriller. Will Nic appreciate a piece of cinema of this calibre, or is this the kind of thing that will make his blood boil? 

After a less than artsy affair last week, Nic finally shows his true colours with this French piece of cinema for his second favourite bad film of the countdown. Will Bryce see any merit in this controversial exotic drama, or will this will fly far and wide over his head? 

Bryce drags Nic back into the Marvel universe this week with somewhat of an outlier in 2004's The Punisher. While the critics didn't get along with this one, it's considered somewhat of a darling 20 + years later, but will Nic feel the same way? 

To kick off what could be a disastrous countdown, Nic give Bryce a movie with an embarrassingly low Rotten Tomatoes score to kick off our run of bad movies in what could be our biggest challenges to date. 

For Bryce's favourite in our under the radar countdown, he picks a SCI-FI flick. Upgrade has all the ingredients for a movie that Nic will hate, but can this one defy the adversity to give it the tick!?

We've reached Nic's NUMBER ONE pick for our lesser known films countdown, and this episode we have a surprising entry. With an all star cast, a top tier director and a Netfllix exclusive, what could possibly go wrong with The Meyerowitz Stories? 

After a depressing film last week, Bryce doubles down by picking another one this week, with an indie sleeper from the man who made The Strangers. Will Nic find the charm in this low budget horror, or is it doomed to fall flat?

After getting the deep cuts countdown off on the wrong foot, Nic moves on to an ACTUAL favourite with Studio Ghibli's lesser known project from the 80s. Will Bryce get on board with this incredibly depressing piece of work, or will the sadness be too much to bare? 

After Nic made a mockery of the countdown last week, Bryce gets us back on track with his third favourite film from the underrated gems countdown. Will Nic get around this bizarre 90 minute cult classic, or will it fly over his head?

The podcast is bought into disrepute this week as Nic picks his third favourite niche film to kick off the brand new countdown.

Not only is it Bryce's number one pick for the Best Picture countdown, it is also his favourite film of all time. Nic will be tasked with the Milos Forman masterpiece, One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest. Has this film exceeded the complications of time, or has it become a relic of the past? 

For Nic's FAVOURITE FILM of the Best Picture winners category, he has chosen 2014's Birdman. While this has all the trappings of a feature that Bryce would normally despise, can he get involved with the manic nature of this relatively arthouse piece of cinema? 

After gifting Bryce with a grounded drama with Kramer Vs. Kramer, Bryce has returned serve with a grounded drama of his own. For his second favourite film of the Best Picture winners category, Bryce has selected a Clint Eastwood masterpiece in 2004's Million Dollar Baby. Will Nic get on board with this tragic underdog story, or will he be lost to the spectacle? 

In what can only be described as a relatively predictable pick for our friend Nic, his SECOND favourite Best Picture winner is awarded to the 1979 legal family drama Kramer Vs. Kramer. After suffering his first loss of the season last week with All About Eve, can Bryce get on board with a story more grounded in reality? 

For Bryce's third favourite film for the best picture winners list, he picks a Coen Brothers classic in the 2000s epic No Country For Old Men. While this is widely considered one of the greatest films ever made, it is extremely macho. Can Nic get on board with a film that oozes this much manly energy? 

This week the boys kick off a new countdown as Bryce and Nic pick their top three OSCAR FLICKS! Nic gets us underway with All About Eve, a supposedly timeless classic that won it way back in the 1950s. Widely considered one of the greatest films ever made, but will it have the same charm on Bryce?
