The Film Pigs Podcast

The Film Pigs are back with their first podcast of 2013. Steve Skelton is still lost in Poland, but Steve Falk and Television's Todd Robert Anderson press on with Podcast #39. They break the latest in movie news, discuss computers in the movies, do a cold reading from a lost eighties classic, and Todd does his best with some trivia. Also, Brad Dourif treats us to an epic monologue about rats in Vi...

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. TV's Todd and Not TV's Falk sit down to enjoy the bizarre treat that is Gremlins 2 . Half way through the movie they lose interest and start going through Falk's "Movie Diary" which is a list of everything he saw in the theater since 1990 (and each entry includes who he saw the movies with...listen to Todd's mind get blown...

With Stephen Skelton shanghaied in Poland, the Pigs that remain Stateside sit down and bang out the first structured podcast in months. That's right! This ain't no bacon...this is a rump roast...or something. Steve Falk and Todd Anderson discuss what makes a good holiday movie, why so many of them are bad, and why there are so many horror movies about Christmas. As if that kind of incredible conve...

Yes, it's another Bacon episode. Yes, we're talking about Todd again. Cut us some slack, we've been working and Falk's been stuck in NY without power. Although, Todd usually has pretty good stories about shows he's worked on, so this isn't so bad.

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. Get your ass to Mars! The Film Pigs are back with a new alternate commentary for the Arnold Schwarzenegger classic TOTAL RECALL ! Given the super-dull remake , this exercise in 90s over-the-topness is a breath of fresh air (Cohaagen!). And by "air" we mean a preposterous storyline, ludicrous blood-squib violence, a truly im...

Once more, unto The Bacon, dear friends! Still flying in missing Pig formation, this episode of the Film Pigs Podcast focuses on Todd Robert Anderson's terrible mental illness: his obsession with collecting DVDs and Blu-rays. Sequestered in a room lined with shelves of plastic discs, Skelton pulls 12 random movies and demands Todd explain himself before it's too late. It's kind of like Interventio...

This is truly an epic episode of The Bacon on The Film Pigs Podcast. It took Todd nearly 20 minutes to conceive of this ultimate showdown. And the nice thing is, we recorded this episode in his office, where there was a multitude of DVDs to reference for accuracy. Which we did once, because we are lazy and don't like to reach for things on high shelves.

On another very exclusive episode of The Bacon, Film Pigs Todd Robert Anderson and Stephen Skelton discuss their very favorite movie robots. Everything from Star Wars to Silent Running, from Hardware to Saturn 3, from Runaway to some other movie with really dumb low-budget robots, is covered. Plus, the never-before revealed reason as to why fellow Film Pig Stephen Falk drove cross-country to New Y...

Despondent over losing one of their own to the metropolis called New York City (in the movies, Metropolis), the Film Pigs scramble for a comforting subject in the form of Indiana Jones. This podcast is an episode of The Bacon, where the Pigs delve deep into a single subject, talk it straight into the ground, and then keep talking some more. With special guest Hilary Anderson and music by Adam Blau...

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. The Film Pigs did not hit her! We did not--oh, hi, you guys. We did not see you there. What are you doing up here on the roof, just sitting with the football and thinking? Ha ha! That is so great! Maybe later after we are finished working at the bank we can get all our friends together for a party where we watch The Room ....

We're back! Better late than never! Unless you hate us, in which case this is terrible news! This time, we're talking "gags", or gory special effects. You know, the real gross stuff that gives you that quality nausea you can't get from computer generated barf. Plus, the latest useless movie news, a movie jail trial with a surprise twist ending, a bizarre line reading, a trivia game that is actuall...

Here we go again! After the stars align in our schedules, the Film Pigs return with a brand-new podcast! This time we're talking a Hollywood staple: the Cop Movie. Expect lots of loose cannons being too close to the case, along with Movie News, Movie Jail, the Nic Cage Memorial Bizarre Line Reading, a fresh Straight to DVD Corner with Tonn Slingdog, a Cold Reading, fun and games, a squawking bird,...

2012 being the end times and all, the Film Pigs figured we should do at least one more full-on podcast before the apocalypse. Enjoy while you can the Film Pigs back to their regular shenanigans: Movie News guaranteed to be fresh within the last 336 hours, an in-depth discussion of College Movies, a legally-binding session of Movie Jail, line readings, cold readings, trivia, and more!

Poor Tonn Slingdog showed up to do his usual DTV Corner segment, but found out he was alone. No Pigs showed. In an attempt to respect the podcast's listeners in a way the usual hosts clearly do not, Tonn yammers for nearly half an hour about some horror movies featuring killer animals he vaguely remembers. Rambling and without a real point, at least this Pigs Podcast is...well, here.

Once more unto The Bacon! We assumed the last episode of the Film Pigs Podcast featuring The Bacon would be so well received we went ahead and immediately recorded another one, Matrix-style! Since we've run out of hosts to interview, this episode focuses on one movie and one movie only: Road House. Possibly the greatest B-movie ever made, and a personal favorite of the hosts, you will surely be en...

Here comes a fresh episode of The Bacon! This time, we're focusing on the maddening psyche of Film Pig Todd Robert Anderson. Why is he an actor? No, seriously, why is he an actor? How does he approach his craft? When is it kind of pointless to use "craft" on set? What movies excited him as a child? Why don't movies excite him in the same way now? What is the root of his terrible DVD collecting pro...

The Film Pigs are back for another podcast, following an endless series of post-Oscars parties (FYI, that little dog from The Artist has a terrible cocaine habit). This episode, we bring you up to date with the latest Movie News, including our final word on the Academy Awards. Then we jump into a brand-new segment highlighting favorite comments from our fans before we hit this episode's theme: Mov...

You might think you're above podcasts, but you're not above ours. The Film Pigs take on an icon of B-movie action this episode when they examine the career of Steven Seagal! Plus, only the latest Movie News, a surprising-then-totally-not-surprising prosecution in Movie Jail, a truly incoherent Nic Cage Memorial Bizarre Line Reading, a special Cold Reading, an amazing fan-suggested game, and (not m...

A little late but worth the wait, the Film Pigs are back and we're talking Coen Brothers - their movies we love, the ones we don't get, and the few that just don't work. Plus, a long talked about but never before accused addition to Movie Jail, a very Stormarey bizarre line reading, the triumphant return of Straight to DVD Corner with Tonn Slingdog, a trivia game that's actually a real trivia game...

The Film Pigs are back and we're talking zombies! Slow zombies, fast zombies, angry zombies, blasé zombies, and even a few things that may or may not be zombies. And, yes, it's impossible to talk about zombie movies without eventually discussing The Walking Dead, so add TV zombies in there as well. Plus, more of the stuff you love (or hate, we really don't know): Movie News, Movie Jail, The Nic Ca...

It's 2012 and the Film Pigs are back with a brand-new podcast not even the Mayans predicted! First up this year is a round table on War Movies! Plus, an international Movie Jail, an epic Bizarre Line Reading, the return of the Cold Reading, a trivia game that's actually a trivia game and not just silly nonsense, and more! Prince Henry Stout!

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. Happy holidays, everyone! It's a Christmas Miracle! The Film Pigs round out 2011 with a treat that's sure to please everyone: a commentary for the marginally holiday-themed Bruce Willis classic, Die Hard 2 ! Or, as it's known in the Philippines, the UK, and on USA video boxes - Die Hard 2: Die Harder. Because nothing s...

We're back with another exciting episode of The Bacon, where the Film Pigs veer off their regular format to focus in on a particular subject. This episode, we batten down the hatches and steam full speed ahead into Stephen Skelton, even though we know it's very rude to batten down hatches and run full steam into someone. Insightful questions lead to perplexing answers about how someone could possi...

It's a return to form as the Film Pigs discuss Female-Driven Action Movies and why Hollywood doesn't make more of them. Plus, hot-off-the-presses movie news, a precedent-setting session of Movie Jail, the Nic Cage Memorial Bizarre Line reading, a highly-stressful game of Taglines!, and TV's Todd Robert Anderson gets everybody a beer!

This episode, the Film Pigs Podcast takes off in a bold new direction with The Bacon! We cast off our regular podcast format and delve deep into the mysterious psyche of Stephen Falk, whom we get to know on a deep personal level within the confines of the 37-minute running time. No detail is spared, including how many copies of pornographic VHS tapes he's been gifted with over the years.
