Ep. 15: Super Bowl Trailers

For this week's MovieFilm Podcast, Brian emerges from the hyperbaric chamber that is "film post-production" to get caught up on the latest out of La-La-Wood.

Ep. 12: Holiday Travel and Trailer Talk

The last MovieFilm installment of 2012 finds the gang sans holiday-traveler Sean, but Zaki and Brian still have plenty to talk about as they ponder the REAL reasoning behind G.I. Joe: Retaliation’s nearly one year push, wonder if they’re getting too old for this “stuff” after seeing the Pacific Rim trailer, and as for reviews? Brian adds to the conversation started last episode regarding Jack Reacher, and the guys share their thoughts (with an asterisk) on This Is 40 and Django Unchained. Oh, an...

Ep. 8: Star Wars Lives!

The Mr. Boy gang was all set to discuss a variety of different topics for the latest MovieFilm episode, then Mr. Lucas dropped his little bomb mid-week, and that changed our trajectory somewhat. So this week, in addition to the answering listener e-mails, debating the role celebs should have in politics, and dissecting the trailers for Gangster Squad and Iron Man 3, the centerpiece of Episode 8 (or rather Episode VIII) is an extended discussion about the impact of Lucasfilm’s acquisition by the ...

For our latest MovieFilm go-round, the Mr. Boy team sings the praises of the just-released Indiana Jones blu-ray set , heaps scorn on the 1995 Judge Dredd flick , and explains why 2004's Shaun of the Dead is a Movie That Matters.
