Line of Sight

We uncover Brendon Fraser's Mummy Trilogy, that is basically it. Three movies from 1999 to 2008 we talk about them. 

You know what's a good film? Ben Stiller's The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. In this episode we talk about it, as well as the original it is a remake of, writing our own sitcom, high school politics, 4k players, upcoming Halloween, and the sickness.

Yes folks, we are going to go through the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, and what better way to start than with the movie that started it all, Iron Man (2008) and it's sequel Iron Man 2 (2010). Does the original still hold up? Is the sequel as bad as everyone makes it out to be? All this and more answered on this premier episode of our MCU series.

We discuss some of those non-blockbusters, unsung heroes, under appreciated films that we think the world should have a second look at.  

To mark the second year of the podcast we are returning to our namesake. Instead of just a regular podcast we are recording while watching the movie so you can watch along with us! Cue up the film to just after the 20th Century Fox fanfare, and we'll count in when to play. We hope you enjoy, we know we did. Commentary starts at 00:12:15

We discuss Orson Welles' Citizen Kane and what makes the greatest films great. Show start 6:20 mark. 

There are been a lot of great science fiction films in the past 10 years. But what exactly is Science Fiction? We debate what actually counts, list off a few of our favourites, and some others that aren't as great as we'd like them to be. Some notable titles are: Interstellar, The Martian, Ex Machina, Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, Under The Skin, and take a deeper dive into Passengers (2016).

We watched it so you don't have to, yes we are referring to 2000's Battlefield Earth staring John Travolta, Barry Pepper and Forest Whitaker. Is it as bad as everyone says? Yes it is. Join us as we do a deep dive into this dumpster fire. Do you want lunch? 

Nathan had never seen 1997's The Fifth Element, and after watching it he found it bared quite the resemblance to 2017's Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, which Adam had never seen. And wouldn't you know it, they're both directed by Luc Besson. This was originally going to be two separate episodes, but to due to some technical difficulties, and a bit of convenience, you get this extra sp...

Now some time has passed, you've had this food sitting in your belly for a while, and they're abou...
