Bald Move Prestige is where the best of the best come to shine. In the Prestige podcast, we talk about serious dramas, excellence in filmmaking, and everything in between; on television or on the big screen. Prestige doesn’t cover sci-fi, but if that is your thing, you might be looking for Bald Move Pulp.
CHAMPION. CHARISMA. CHARACTER. These are the qualities that make a badass.
In the conclusion to Badass Fest VI, Jim and A.Ron tackle True Lies (1994). This action flick is another collaboration between James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Jamie Lee Curtis plays the wife to Arnold’s secret agent character, Harry. The two get wrapped up in bluffs, twists, and truth serum. This $100,000,000 smackdown is a feast for any action fan.
There’s something worse on the Los Angeles freeways than the LA drivers. Officer Jack Traven, played by all-around-good-guy Keanu Reeves, must save a busload of people from a bomb on board. Joining him is Sandra Bullock and the two will swerve their way through the dangers of maniacal men, explosives, and traffic. It’s a good time and makes you thankful for cruise control.

Are you ready?! Badass Fest VI is here and all month long Jim and A.Ron are bringing you the biggest, baddest, and burliest action movies! Kicking off the celebration is Jim and A.Ron’s coverage of Drunken Master II recorded in front of an audience of Bald Movers.
The year is 1994 and Tom Hanks is trying to redefine his funny-man image and there’s nothing less funny than AIDS. Join us for the first mainstream Hollywood film about the AIDS epidemic starring Tom Hanks as a gay man who believes he was wrongfully terminated for his disease and Denzel Washington, the homophobic lawyer who decides to defend him.
Forrest Gump is an artifact of a more innocent age; a time before Tom Hanks learned to make fire. Before Robin Wright made binge-watching a lifestyle. Before Hollywood acknowledged that Pulp Fiction had changed the way audiences engaged with movies. Join us for the podcast to take a trip back in time and find out if this Academy darling still holds up.

Jim and A.Ron have left their nexus ribbon to revisit the first TNG movie, where Picard’s crew meets Kirk’s crew for the first time. Jim thinks much more highly of it than A.Ron did, but they had fun watching anyway. Listen to the full podcast to hear them elaborate, and join us every week for a new movie!
Special thanks to Hatorian, who by right of conquest in the Bald Move Fantasy Football leagues has won his prize; a commissioned podcast of his choice. He has chosen wisely, selecting the classic 1994 prison/drama/inspirational The Shawshank Redemption. This is a nearly perfect piece of filmmaking, with a confidence in pacing and direction from Frank Darabont matched by the nuanced work of the film’s two leads, Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. We had a lot of fun watching and discussing this one Hatorian. Hopefully, it won’t be the longest podcast of your life…
