Home Viewing

They can't all be winners. Join us as we discuss Legend and The Martian.

No, not that one, these ones. It's Gladiator II and Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut)!

Ridley has a fascination with the French. It permeates his whole oeuvre. But which French Freak speaking in an American Accent will win??? Matt Damon and Adam Driver, or Joaquin Phoenix? It’s The Last Duel and Napoleon on Home Viewing.

Ready to go Gaga for some Italian accents? Or do you prefer to go for a fishing trip that turns into going on the lam? It’s time to see how House of Gucci and Thelma and Louise stack up, and to determine just how pivotal dogs are going to be for the ongoing competition.

John and Bethany get back on the horse...oh wait it's dead. Oh and so is that one. and that one...and that one...it's a Ridley Scott fantasy league. Find out what that means and more on the return of the world's only movie podcast, Home Viewing.

It's part one of a Del Toro Double Feature. Get in the robot with your closest companion and fight some otherworldly sea monsters in Pacific Rim.

After two months of holidays and sore throats, John and Bethany are back with a full movie series under their belts. What makes an Ocean's movie? It ain't coral reefs and barnacles, that's for sure.

John and Bethany dig into Nora Ephron's culinary bio-/blogo-pic, Julie & Julia. It's pretty food and frankly incredible performances to celebrate the Pocket Podcast Potluck.

John and Bethany try very hard to channel Roger Deakins and do it in one take. They maybe don't succeed all that well.

John and Bethany dive into one of the biggest American movies of 2019, Knives Out. You know we love a Southern Daniel Craig, we live for a cast as stacked as this one, and we dig Rian Johnson's groovy style. If you haven't watched this movie, just GO DO IT.

John and Bethany dig in to Russel Crowe and Ryan Gosling’s take on a buddy cop movie. The Nice Guys is good, but it’s got some stuff it could’ve done better! But not the chemistry or the killer bees: that’s on lock. CORRECTION: Angourie Rice isn’t in American Vandal. She’s in Spider-Man: Homecoming and Far From Home, and John just got his blonde teenagers in American high school media confused.

Pablo Larrain gets pomo in 2016's Neruda, with performances from Luis Gnecco that can't stop John from talking, and not just because he's drinking wine from the setting.

Sometimes, a 90ish minute comedy doesn’t need to be much more than it is. But that doesn’t mean we can’t wish Rose Byrne did even more. John and Bethany get into the 2014 Seth Rogen/Zac Efron prank war, Neighbors.

John continues the tradition of crying about good new Disney movies, but in a more subdued way during the episode. Much like in Moana, there’s quite a bit of singing in this one.

John and Bethany go globe hopping with Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill to talk all about Mission Impossible: Fallout. Chases, stunts, explosions, masks, Wolf Blitzer cameos…it’s all here.

Did this lose luster after high school? Yeah, I think it really did! John and Bethany talk a 1999 Shakespeare adaptation with a truly stacked cast.

Sail with John, Bethany, and special guest Chris to The Far Side of the World, to see what Paul Bettany was up to before he became everybody’s red android husband. Russell Crowe is there too, and maybe they’re married?

Grab your fries, chips, and mash, because we’re talking about everyone’s favorite Martian, Matt Damon. In their fourth Space Disaster episode, John and Bethany get into why this movie doesn’t completely stick the landing, but doesn’t blow up after liftoff either.

It’s another overexcited talkfest when John and Bethany take on what may be the greatest action movie ever made, George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road. Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron devastate with barely a word, practical effects go boom, and Nicolas Hoult rides forever, shiny and chrome.

This one is long and excited, and barely scratches the surface of the defining trilogy of the 2000s, The Lord of the Rings. John DOES cry in this one, of course, and Bethany is surprisingly open to just another very long journey into fantasy and fandom.

John and Bethany dive into John's pick for Best Film of 2017, Soderbergh’s Logan Lucky, a movie about capitalism and imperialism's exploitation of the body of the worker...and also the Hillbilly Heist.

John and Bethany are joined by Mike from Green Mountain Mysteries to discuss Logan , a sad superhero movie that hits the mark...except with its non-white characters. Come on, Mangold, can't you make characters of color multi-dimensional?

John and Bethany dive into the 2014 Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt military sci-fi time loop adventure, Live. Die. Repeat. - Edge of Tomorrow. And lemme tell ya, a movie with a title that long really does drag on once it abandons the comedy that made it work, huh? Can we get a crumb of women? Or non-white people? Please?

John and Bethany take a look at Greta Gerwig's sophomore feature, 2019's Little Women, with all the love they can muster for Dern, Ronan, Chalamet, Watson, Pugh....this cast is stacked y'all. And who's that hot professor?

John and Bethany watch a (barely) spooky movie they wanted to like and really, really didn't. Next episode, they get back on to a much more comfortable track with Little Women (2019).
