At the Movies with William Fletcher

We're here with the final director filmography retrospective for the year with a look back at James Cameron's career in anticipation of the release of Avatar: Fire and Ash.

We're delving back into the world of murder mysteries this week as we look at the Knives Out series before Wake Up Dead Man releases on Netflix because they don't want to keep it in cinemas for longer.

The show is back to cover more Disney this week with a look at Zootopia before the upcoming Zootopia 2 along with Disney's recent output and the potential future of Disney's output.

We're covering more Hollywood blockbuster fare this week with a look at Wicked before the sequel comes out this week with a discussion on the film's long production history, the "controversies" surrounding the film and the film's Oscars chances.

Time for something completely different as we look at the somehow long-running Now You See Me franchise while also talking about Harry Potter (because Daniel Radcliffe is in one of them), magic (duh) and Dan Harmon (what?)

What's that? Two episodes in one week?! Indeed, you lucky ducks, as we're looking at The Running Man this week as well discussing the work of Stephen King, Arnold Schwarzenegger and 80s action movie cheese. Here is the link to the short film my guest mentioned: https://vimeo.com/1131913288

Another longer gap between episodes but we're back with the Predator franchise which we couldn't really pass up on after doing the Alien franchise last year.

After a delay, we're back with a look at the history of Frankenstein and the career of Guillermo del Toro because there's a new Frankenstein out directed by Guillermo del Toro which is the only reason we cover certain films now.

Going more for a cult classic film this week with a look at Tron because there's a sequel out soon but you know how this show works now.

It's the big'un. Episode 200. For such a momentous occasion, we're covering one of the biggest classics and most important films in cinema history with Jaws. 

A very out of nowhere choice (especially before episode 200) but we decided to cover a film that is really archetypical of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson before The Smashing Machine comes out and he shows his chops as a dramatic actor with Pain & Gain.

We're back with another look at a directorial filmography, this week with Paul Thomas Anderson as we start from Hard Eight and work our way to the present with a look forward at One Battle After Another.

A cult favourite this week with This Is Spinal Tap but we do talk about comedy in general and the mockumentary subgenre.

A bit of an offbeat choice this week as we delve into the world of murder mysteries with a look at the 1985 cult classic, Clue.

Going the complete opposite direction from last week with a far darker and muted approach with the Coen Bros. No Country for Old Men.

After taking a break from episodes, we're back again with an action film looking at the Bob Odenkirk lead Nobody and discussing the man's career and the current state of action films being made.   Apologies for the audio issues on my end, I will work on getting them fixed for next week's episode.

After a delay to this week's release due to some unforeseen sickness, we're back with another Marvel episode looking at Fantastic Four's onscreen outings before seeing whether or not Disney can succeed in doing so.

To the opposite spectrum of films now following on from Superman with a look at a 90s favourite, Happy Gilmore.

After doing so much Marvel over the last few years, it's finally time to cover something related to DC with Superman as we finally get the first chapter in the DCU.

After a couple of weeks off, the show is back with a look at Jurassic World Dominion to tie into the upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth and as we get into this Summer movie season (for the Americans).

After covering a Pixar film last week, we're going to jump over and cover a Dreamworks franchise with How to train Your Dragon because apparently all animated films are going to be getting live action remakes now.

Another dive into the well of Pixar this week as we look back at Finding Nemo and it's sequel Finding Dory with as few water-based puns as we can muster.

We're having a retrospective look at Jesse Armstrong's career but it does just slowly become a discussion of the British comedy scene. 

A big franchise retrospective this week with a look at the history of Mission: Impossible and we get a surprise guest who shows up during the proceedings.

More Disney and I'm even joined by Stitch himself at a couple of points to talk about this film. We also just talk about the future of the industry and the Disney live action remakes.
