WHAT YEAR IS IT!? Insert meme Hello everyone! Welcome back for yet another year, yet another episode. This one has been A LONG time in the making. We' are back from a little hiatus. We talk about our break in this episode, but this was purely a professional break - we all had life happen. Rest assured, we LOVE doing this podcast. It' is just ridiculousness and pure fun to us so we were destined to come back to it. In this return episode, Neil insisted to Steve we take a look at Annhilation, the new Netflix/Natalie Portman film that released in 2018. Both originally walked into the movie with NO information (this being the second time for Neil) and knew it’d be a great film to restart our old conversation off of. Forgive us as we shake off the rust and the terrible grammatical habits we have reformed over the break - we will be more efficient going forward! Enjoy. :) Film Geeks Podcast RSS

Our journey into dark comedies/horror films continue... With another suggestion from Logan and Brett we dove into Cabin in the Woods, and this time we were joined by Tim! This film is one of the many reasons people go to the movies - to be entertained. We all loved it and had a great conversation about it. Now just a warning, technical issues plague us again! Only I didn't feel the need to edit it, you guys get to experience us at our worst :) Enjoy! Film Geeks Podcast RSS

We've done it. We were able to spend time and put this episode on tape without anyones head blowing off. Quite the feat! As you all know, Neil isn't a fan of this movie and we originally intended to just shred this movie apart but alas, at the last moment, we found a champion. Brett came in to the rescue for this film and we turned it into another Convince Me episode! So, buckle in and get ready. Another Superhero showdown begins. Film Geeks Podcast RSS

The classic crew returns to talk about Horror Comedies once again! Our quest to watch horror comedies did stem from the topics of discussions we had in the Ghostbusters episode. We also found out it is a favorite genre for both Logan and Brett so it became quite obvious we needed to hit a few more items on that list. Starting with Tucker and Dale it was a wildly fun movie and it made for a great session. Was it the first time for me? Obviously yes, I once again am the worst Film Geek of all time. And at the tail end of this episode we had to revists the DC universe once more - Suicide Squad came out a few weeks ago and we did talk about it a bit last episode. Boy oh boy - that...sure was a thing...there's just somethings we need to vent...so...brace thyselves. Film Geeks Podcast RSS

Another episode another fanboy affair! We are rejoined in this episode by Brett and Rebecca as we discuss the new Ghostbusters film and harken back to the original. Now to be fair, we're not comparing them by anymeans but simily looking at what each film did well. We then break off and discuss something Brett and I have been wanting to do for a while - talk shop on Batman V Superman - The Ultimate Cut. The additional 30 minutes we both felt really added to the film and it reopens conversations (and wounds) regarding the film that leaves a-many-friends divided.

Well well well...how the turntables.... We're back guys - as we will explain in the intro of this episode we had a few vacations queued up back-to-back between the main hosts, but things are settling back down and we are gearing back up! This week we decided to start out with Keith's favorite movie and a movie that he doesn't need to tear apart & crush my dreams in doing so. We're talking about The Big Lebowski this episode and surprise surprise - Neil hasn't seen it. Now, a kind heads up - we TRY to be funny and/or entertaining, but this week is extra special. And special not in a good way, we wound up fighting tech issues and in my opinion turned out to be quite humorous in ways we weren't expecting. Enjoy!

Okay - as if we haven't done enough to earn the Geek moniker in the website name, now we must be nearing that territory. One of the greatest film trilogies ever made (argue all you like, take a look at the popular votes on IMDB) Lord of the Rings is our focus of attention for the next three weeks. We step very lightly into this film as there is much we cannot spoil for Steve, who is once again enjoying a brand new saga of epic storytelling. Enjoy part one of our three-parter.

If ever you think you're a hypochondriac, try watching this movie and tell me how you feel 15 minutes after. We got a chance to catch up with a close friend, Michael Coblentz! We tried making this podcast happen a month ago but alas it was just not meant to be but it worked out better the second time around. The crew watches this film for the first time and we get a healthy dose of Nolan's signature mindfuckery and boy was it worth it. However not everyone walked away a fan of the movie! *Some people didn't even walk away from the podcast, looking at you Logan* Listen in and tell us how you feel about this classic crime drama...

Lets get this out of the way right now...Yeah that other episode was an April Fool's joke - that we served one day cold. :)   This is the ultimate showdown of two of the biggest Superheroes: The Bat of Gotham vs The Last Son of Krypton. If you're a big DC fan, this is something we've been dying to see on the big screen for YEARS, decades even. And what we got - was met with sore criticism and a pretty big backlash. We decided to take it on ourselves to find out how our diverse group of Hosts felt about this movie. Surprisingly there was some sort of concensus here - I KNOW, of all movies. If there is one thing we urge people to walk away with it is this - go watch the damn movies. Not just this flick, but any movie, and then form your own opinion. Do not form it based on word of mouth or critics because this is art & entertainment and only you can judge how you feel about it. We hope you guys gain some insight about the film from our perspective, maybe a second glance will make it better, maybe it will make it worse. Only one way to find out... Film Geeks Podcast RSS
