Cinemasters of the Universe

Welcome back ghouls and boys to the second installment of this year’s Cinemaster’s Spooktacular! This week we travel to a small town in New York for one of the most haunted houses ever immortalized on the silver SCREAM! That’s right it’s The Amityville Horror. But since we’re kicking things up a notch this year we’re not just doing one movie, we’re doing the original AND the remake. Two times the...

Welcome to the official 2021 Cinemaster SPOOKTAKULAR! In our first installment at our long anticipated salute to scary movies. It’s officially Halloween season so we’re heading to outer space where no one can hear you scream! Join Ron and Adam as they discuss the fate of the Nostromo when it takes a detour to investigate a potential distress signal. Amidst the blinking lights and space sounds we g...

Well hey there friends. It’s another casual gathering around the old water cooler for a bit of movie news and opinions in the most chill way we can think to present it. This installment kicks off with some unfortunately sad news with the passing of a comedy giant, Norm MacDonald. Ron and Adam share their thoughts on some of his most notable appearances, roles and material he’s left behind for all...

Oh hey there friends. Welcome back to another fun little installment of Cinemasters. We’re kind of low key today. Just some friendly water cooler talk. Kind of like a fireside chat but with more casual beverages and movie news with less spirited libations and singular movie focus. From time to time our Cinemasters will be dropping these little updates as necessary. The movie industry is an ever ch...

What do you get when you cross a Troma director with a penchant for R rated shenanigans with an amazing cast of some of the worst (in EVERY sense of the word) bad guys that DC ever cooked up? The answer is the best damn Suicide Squad movie there is. Welcome back Cinemaster fans! This time around we’re sitting in with Ron and Adam as they talk about a new movie still in theaters. So this should ser...

Gather ‘round Cinemaster fans and get toasty by the crackling flames as we enjoy our second Fireside Chat! This time we will be discussing the Schwarzenegger classic, “Terminator 2”. Sit in with Ron and Adam as they speak fondly of this summer blockbuster in the follow up half to our most recent series. Comfy in their velvet clad wingback chairs, clad in the classiest of smoking jackets, the Cinem...

Welcome Back loyal fans! Summer time has always meant one thing to movie lovers: The Blockbuster! It’s been a while since we’ve had a real iconic summer blockbuster, especially since the summer movie season starts in early spring, anymore. Come join Ron “The Rental King” Avis and Adam “Nighthawk Peterson as they casually meander through their first ever “Fireside Chat” and talk about a beloved cla...

If you arrive at a four way stop with a Cinemaster to your left and one to your right and Billy Ocean directly across from you, who has the right of way? As long as you’re one of the Corey’s in a mint green Cadillac then the answer is most definitely you! This week Ron and Adam get into the 1988 coming of age classic “License to Drive” featuring the iconic Corey Haim and Corey Feldman. To be 16 ag...

Round two of our Movies that May have aged well is back in full effect and this time our Cinemasters are taking on the 1991 “cult” classic of imaginary proportions, “Drop Dead Fred”. Is this film the ultimate definition of childhood friends only you could see or perhaps a precursor to a Tyler Durden fever dream. Ron and Adam will weigh in on all things Fred in this installment and help us understa...

Welcome Cinemaster fans to the first episode of our “Movies that May not have aged well”. In this installment we have a very special guest returning to join Ron and Adam. White Machete sit’s in to discuss the 1988 body swap classic “Vice Versa”. Our three Cinemasters discuss the ups and downs of the adventures of Judge Reinhold as Fred Savage and Fred Savage as Judge Reinhold. Two fish out of wate...

Let’s finish out our month of Fools with Mike Judge’s dynamically dumb duo of Beavis and Butt-head as they “do” America. Charged up with 90’s MTV nostalgia and nary a brain cell between the pair, these animated fools awkwardly giggle through 81 minutes of double entendres in hopes of one big score and a new television set. Add in a bevy of celebrity voices, a Rob Zombie musical interlude and enoug...

Hey there Cinemaster fans and thanks for coming back to episode 3 of our April Fools series we’re in. This week we are looking at the 1979 Steve Martin classic “The Jerk”. Join Adam and Ron as they walk through this flick from humble beginnings in Mississippi to the height of wealth in this rags to riches tale of Navin R. Johnson. From guessing weight in a carnival to the spontaneous publicity of...

ULTRAVIOLET RAYS BAD. CINEMASTERS GOOD. Welcome back to the CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE continuing with our April tribute to "fools". This week Ron picked one of the 90's most prolific fools, Adam Sandler, in his breakout feature film 'Billy Madison'.

Welcome to April, Cinemaster fans! It’s the month we celebrate fools. First up on our list is the immortal physical comedian from SNL fame, Chris Farley in his most iconic role of all time. Sandusky’s favorite son and heir to the Callahan auto parts empire, this 7 year Marquette grad has to wrestle with real life when his father leaves him too soon. Coupled with long time SNL alum and friend, Davi...

As in true Cinemaster fashion we are better late than never. Finishing out our week 4 of our love affair with movies is our episode dedicated to the Merc with a Mouth, Wade W Wilson of Regina, Saskatchewan, also known as Deadpool. Ron and Adam cover this movie as well as a number of other Marvel properties past, present, and future as they enjoy various parts of the plot and characters in the film...

Hey there Cinemaster fans, we’re back with our third installment of our love affair with movies. Through the month of February we are picking movies we just love for one reason or another and are sharing them with you. This week is Ron’s second pick, the 1989 Richard Pryor and Gene WIlder classic “See No Evil, Hear No Evil”. Our Cinemasters will walk you through the nuts and bolts of this comedy c...

Welcome Back Cinemasters Fans. We are back for week 2 of our February affair with movies we love. This is Adam’s pick and is near and dear to his heart. We’ve all grown to enjoy Adam’s affinity for all things Jimmy Stewart. This week we delve into his favorite flick from Mr. Stewart called “Harvey”. It's a classic film from the golden age of black and white cinema. So strap in with the Rental...

"GODS OF WAR!!!! may your hammer be mighty." Welcome back to another episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE and since February is the month of love we're going to present four movies we have a love affair with, kicking off with Ron's pick: the 2007 Lonely Island (and perhaps more so Adam Sandburg) vehicle, ' Hot Rod '.  Hot Rod is an underdog tale about a young 'boy&#39...

Hey there movie monsters and welcome to our final October episode. To do Halloween the right way we decided to go extremely meta and dedicate our Halloween episode to the movie Halloween. And if that wasn’t kicking it up enough, we pulled out the rest of the stops and brought out the White Machete! In this very special Spooktakular finale we put all three of our horror-rific heads together and bre...

Since it’s Halloween, we have to push the envelope a little bit. We figured the best way to amp up the podcast this week is to bring back a familiar voice (since you can’t see our faces now anyway, stupid pandemic) to help us break down the 1987 Canadian Horror Classic, “The Gate”. Matt Mercer Joins us to discuss all things demonic for a young Stephen Dorff as he and his north of the border cohort...

Welcome back for week two of our Spooktacular series this October of all things scary. This time around is Adam’s pick and he’s bringing us his favorite flick from an old school master of thrills and chills, Alfred Hitchock himself. There’s no creepy shower scenes or avian infestations this time around though. This time the scares come from what happens right outside your window. Your “Rear Window...

October means one thing when it comes to the Cinemasters...Halloween. This year we are bringing you 4 specially designed episodes to bring the terror. Week 1 is Ron’s first pick and we kick it off with a powerhouse when it comes to all things horror. Think red and green sweater, knives for fingers and he’ll get you when the caffeine runs out. That’s right its Freddy Kruger in the best of all the N...

It’s a movie that’s been 29 years in the making. And because this year feels like it will never end, it also feels like it’s been 29 years since you’ve seen the Cinemasters. But now, their most triumphant return comes together in a truly glorious and entirely excellent fashion. That’s right kids, the Cinemasters are back and it is 100% all about Bill and Ted Face the Music! After a summer hiatus b...

Trivia fans, come on down! It’s time for another episode featuring one of our absolute favorite things to do and that is test our collective movie knowledge. We are back again with another round of questions for each other to see just how much of a mastery we have on the cinema. As it stands we are tied with one win a piece and a couple of draws under our belt. We always have  a lot of fun coming...

Who are the best bad good guys in movies? Or are they the worst good bad guys? We’re not totally sure either but we do have a list of candidates we have put together of our favorite scoundrels, anti-heroes and reluctant good guys. Essentially they aren’t your typical, squeaky clean protagonists. But these guys get the job done with efforts that might be less than desirable in certain circumstances...
