Today we take a look at two stories based around the premise of super powered beings gone wrong (sort of). To help say goodbye to Fox's X-Men Series we brought on friend of the podcast Leopold Knopp ( https://reelentropy.com/ ), who's long had an affinity for the mutant movies. He also stuck around and helped us talk about James Gunn's evil Superman horror flick, which could be opening up a cinematic universe of its own.
Do we have to get you pumped for John Wick and Godzilla? Didn't think so, gun shots and monster shrieks!!! (Apologies for Trent's awful audio...)
Another cinematic universe? Nostalgia Ultra? Pokemon on the big screen? Yes, please! Here's our quick review of Detective Pikachu!
Wow we are late on this, but hey, it is what it is. Despite this being very past due, Avengers Endgame was too big a film to not post about, so here's our review on the Marvel Cinematic Universe's culmination film. Enjoy!
What do you want us to say? We sat on these movies for a little too long, but this episode was worth the wait. Enjoy!
Sigh...Green Book won best picture...sigh
This we're talking the 2019 Oscars! Everything from Best Picture to Best Cinematography, plus some poking fun at the most polarizing award show. Enjoy!
We are BACK! And we are talking the beautifully made If Beale Street Could Talk and the follow up to both Unbreakable and Split, Glass. Enjoy! PS: Also, look out for a bonus review this week!
What? Double-release? That's right, we're dropping our second episode of the day while catching up on the numerous releases from December. In this episode we talked about award darling Vice and the breathtaking animated spectacle Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. But before we get into those, we talk about our top films from 2018.
We're going all UK for this episode of the podcast, and though we don't use British accents, we did our best to recap these historical dramas taking place across the pond. Enjoy!
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! Right!? Right? Regardless, we sit down to talk about the Queen biopic and whether we thought it was both entertaining and accurate. We also say goodbye to Stan Lee. Enjoy!
Yo what is up everybody, we are back this week with a quick review of Venom. Because of it's lack of substance, we do dive into some spoiler territory, so if you haven't seen it listen for the WARNING. Anyways, have a great week, we'll see you at the movies!
A late review is still a review, but since you've probably seen these movies, it's fair to say we sort of went into some spoiler territory anyways. We also recapped some news from the past few weeks, and dished on how James hurt the one and only Donald Glover. Thanks for listening, and enjoy!
Over the past few weeks, we discovered a dry spell for movies we could review. So instead of dragging ourselves to the theater to see films we were less than excited for, we decided to revisit some films we didn't cover on the podcast. Luckily for us, two of the biggest hits this summer were on that list, so this week, we decided to finally dig into Avengers: Infinity War and Mission Impossible: Fallout.
Check us out, we're uploading in a timely manner! This week we tackle two very different movies that represent more than their plot points. First, we discuss Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman, a film about police officer Ron Stallworth, who goes undercover to topple a chapter of the KKK in Colorado Springs during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1970s. After, we discuss the wildly successful, and cheery, Crazy Rich Asians, which takes a pretty standard romantic comedy story with an almost entire Asian ...
Yikes, with a busy schedule that makes editing tough and the general gamble of sending our audio files back in forth, this episode proved tough to produce. Even though it doesn't have the normal news, the MFB crew still came through with a solid movie review of Eighth Grade. Thanks for listening!
Once again, we apologize for the editing delay, we promise to get better at cranking these things out more efficiently. But, while we have your attention, this week we discussed the ever-changing Movie Pass terms of service and reviewed the slightly tedious Ant-Man and the Wasp and the wonderful Sorry To Bother You. Thanks for listening!
Woo, after a bit of a delay in editing we are back with a review Josh Brolin and Benicio Del Toro's follow up to 2015's "Sicario." Is it as good as the first one? Does it struggle to maintain the mystery of its predecessor? Tune into listen. Also we discuss a few interesting topics from the world of movies. Enjoy!
Wow, we uploaded on the same day TWO WEEKS IN A ROW!!! And how do we celebrate? By venturing into the disappointing Jurassic World, only to Incredibly salvage our movie weeks by seeing the Incredibles 2. We also touch on some news this week including the upcoming SUBSCRIPTION WARS. Thanks for listening!
Our first podcast of June is a doozy, as we talk about the heavily (well, kind of?) Ocean's 8 and the critically acclaimed Hereditary. Before dishing on heists and horrors, we talked about Disney's attempt at drive-in dollars and the inevitable success of The Incredibles 2. Thanks for listening!
Yo, what is up everybody! We are back with a review on Deadpool 2 and Disobedience, please ignore our weird audio issues this week, because we probably will fix them (probably). As always, enjoy the podcast!
Wow, it's almost like the crew has been into intermittent fasting lately, because it feels like forever since we took a seat at the breakfast table and discussed some movies. Due to lost audio with our detailed review of the unstoppable machine that is Marvel's Infinity War, are return was delayed a week, and instead of regurgitating our thoughts on the billion dollar flick, we discussed movies lost in Thanos' large Titan shadow, in You Were Never Really Here and Tully. Both are small in scale, ...
Due to some unforeseen scheduling errors, the Movies For Breakfast podcast had to take an hiatus this week, however we know your movie metabolism won't stop kicking so James has you covered with a little snack. Instead of a discussion, James quickly runs through some of the news that caught his attention with a quick, short, poignant run down of what would surely make an old-timey newsreel.
Wow, you could not pick two more diametrically opposed movies to review in one podcast episode, but hey, we did! First we chatted about the slapstick comedy only critics seem to enjoy and highlight a certain actor-wrestler-buff guy who stole a ton of scenes. After discussing parenting in a sitcom, we discuss the decision making and themes of A Quiet Place. But before the reviews we talked some movie news including movie elitists looking down on the MCU, Alex Garland defending his adaptation and ...
Yo, what is up everybody! Today we sat down over some grocery bought sushi, waffles and even some theater-bought beers to discuss two movies garnering a ton of buzz: Ready Player One and Isle Of Dogs. We discuss the nostalgia of Steve Spielberg's latest blockbuster, but also acknowledge how sad the future must be if you're forced to look back 60-years for pop-culture. For Isle Of Dogs, we chatted about why Wes Anderson is receiving such heavy criticism, and whether the director needs to change w...
Yo, what is up everybody! We our back with our sixth episode of Movies For Breakfast! This week, Anna is back with James and Trent to talk movie news including potential Steven Spielberg projects, the next James Bond movie and the future of the Men In Black franchise. (She also dishes on one of some XXX-rated theater behavior.) As always, we also tackled a few reviews including "Tomb Raider" and "Love Simon." Don't blink, because the next episode is coming at you quick! Thanks for listening.
In a special edition of the pod, James and Trent talk about the hype surrounding the latest "Avengers: Infinity War" trailer. After the weekend, the latest promotion for the upcoming movie still had the two geeking out, so they decided to share their thoughts on the most exciting and surprising moments shown. The two also discuss where it stacks up with other trailers from Marvel's past films.
In the midst of Trent preparing for SXSW, the crew was able to sneak in a quick episode, complete with news chatter and, of course, reviews. This week we tackled the weird, homage-heavy Thoroughbreds and the somewhat lackluster, unless you're 8-years old, Wrinkle In Time. The ending this week is a bit abrupt, as we once again (LOL) encountered some audio troubles. Despite this, we just can't stop talking about movies with you guys. Thanks for listening!
After a tough few weeks with multiple technical difficulties and vacations, Anna, Trent and James are finally back at the breakfast table! Despite a slightly disjointed schedule, the three gathered to talk about Game Night and Annihilation (20:20). Before that, instead of the usual trailer talk, James and Trent chatted about some hot topics in movies, including Black Panther's Chinese debut, Snoke's backstory in Star Wars and Fred Durst (WTF). Be sure to check us out next week as we tackle Thoro...
This week, Anna, James and Trent discuss some of the interweaving complexities of “Phantom Thread” while tackling whether or not the movie is enough of a send off for the great Daniel Day Lewis. We also touch on our favorite Paul Thomas Anderson film. After trading in our premium dresses for fatigues and athletic wear, we step into the jungle and discuss the surprisingly successful “Jumanji.” We talk the budding bromance of Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson, deem Jack Black a scene stealer and brief...
