Is there anyone on Earth who looks less like Apple founder Steve Jobs than Michael Fassbender? Scientifically speaking, no. Researchers have identified several species of paramecia that bear a greater resemblance to Jobs than Fassbender. Nevertheless, Fassbender radiates a kind of blinkered intensity that could only belong to a monomaniac on Jobs’ scale. Pair that with Sorkin’s script and it makes...

a live dog who should have been a dead lion. Who would have thought to make a movie about Ray Kroc, a man with the personality of a Big Mac wrapper? The people who made The Founder, I guess. DAC Episode 340 - The Founder (2016) Adam P Knave and Aidan Morgan Download

sigh. Here’s Adam and Aidan attempting to square their love of Aaron Sorkin with 1995’s The American President , a movie in which Michael Douglas plays the very best president. He’s almost brought low, but he fixes his problems by giving a big impromptu speech at the end, restoring America’s virility in the process. Is this podcast an autopsy? Therapy? Listen below (or find us on your podcatcher o...

a dead lion reborn in the body of a live dog Imagine a world in which Geena Davis became a bad-ass ‘90s action star. The Long Kiss Goodnight is like a dream of that world. And brother, it’s a pretty good dream. Listen below, or find us wherever your podcasts roam free. DAC Episode 338 - The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) Adam P Knave and Aidan Morgan Download

four live dogs in a galaxy of dead lions. One thing in the universe, besides death, is certain: there can be no final form of Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. The story has existed as a radio play, a series of novels, a television show, and a feature film. The 2005 movie has its defenders (one of whom is named Adam P Knave) and mortal enemies (one of whom is named Aidan Morgan). Li...

That’s one live dog right there facing off with two virtual lions. Every so often, a movie comes along that so perfectly embodies the moment of its release that it should be taught in history courses as the purest emanation of a given age. Such a movie is Jason X, a movie so 2001 that Stanley Kubrick is lucky he never lived to see it. A space ship with an interior that looks suspiciously like a La...

she’s fucked. she’s so fucked. Spoiler alert: Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton) is fucked. She’s so fucked. Michael Clayton (George Clooney) isn’t the guy you kill. He’s the guy you buy. If this movie is about any one thing in particular, beyond the moral abyss of corporations and the ways in which community and meaning will pop up like connected air sacs on a sheet of bubble wrap, it’s about the wisd...

It’s time for Three Days of the Condor, Sydney Pollack’s masterpiece of Cold War paranoia, a film which suggests that mild-mannered English majors can hold their own in a cat-and-mouse spy game - if they look like Robert Redford, that is. Listen to Adam and Aidan as they dissect the politics of their childhoods and place bets on how long they’d survive if Max von Sydow tried to murder them. DAC Ep...

never has a live dog live dogged more. Hold on a moment. Did they make a decent Terminator sequel, at long, long last? Well, kind of. It’s largely great! Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger are back, Mackenzie Davis is great as always, Diego Luna makes for a great robot. Even Natalie Reyes, who takes a bit of a back seat in the midst of all this nostalgic star power, acquits herself well. No...

whatever. Ahahahaha. This movie sucked. “But,” you ask, “how exactly did it suck? Was it an earnest attempt to reboot the franchise with yet another trilogy-starter? (yes) Was it an egregiously miscast snorefest that tried to hit all points on the graph but somehow missed every single one? (yes) Did it convince you that Skynet is Genisys? (no, Skynet is Matt Smith) Is it a fact in the movie that S...

hello domino’s? Do you deliver to the apocalypse? Hey! Who wants a new Terminator movie? It’s got everything! It’s got the original T-800… with Arnold’s face CGI’d onto a bodybuilder. It’s got Sarah Connor… on a series of audio cassettes. And it’s got John Connor - in several scenes! Oh, and Kyle Reese pops up. But most importantly, it’s got *checks notes* fan favourite Marcus Wright, played by Sa...

one lion soon to die, one cyborg, one live dog. It’s time to answer everyone’s questions about Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. Do you have any questions about Terminator 3, aside from Why was this made? and Where’s Linda Hamilton? There’s a small chance we might have the answer. Listen below or find us on your podnabber of choice. DAC Episode 330 - Terminator 3 (2003) Download

a live dog in a world of soon-to-be-dead lions. What is there to say at this point about Terminator 2: Judgment Day ? That it’s a big ole crowd pleaser that updates the Wallace Beery wrestling pic for the ‘90s? That its florid sentimentality is the key to its success? That it’s a hell of a lot of fun? Maybe there’s nothing more to say, but we spend a solid hour saying it anyway on this week’s podc...
