Here it is. The final season! AMC is finally shooting The Walking Dead in the head to put it down once and for all. The only question is, will it go out with a violent gory splash and a mouthful of flesh, or will it lay down in the road and wither into a desiccated pile of bones? Check out the podcast to find out what kind of start it got off to.
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.
Elio Garcia reveals his pet theory about Varys’ (evolving) motives. Steve and Anthony debate the plausibility of Jaime’s character redemption. Anthony chats with Yannick from Belgium about adopting female role models.
This week’s prestige film is Pump Up the Volume. Christian Slater plays a mild mannered highschooler by day who transforms into pirate radio station DJ Happy Harry Hard-on by night, to scandalize his conservative town with profanity laced tirades about sex, drugs, and the utter meaningless of life. Is this movie just teen-agey angsty bullshit, or does it have something relevant to say in 2021 where everyone has a microphone and a public platform? Join us for the podcast to find out.
This is the one we’ve been waiting for. Carol sends Negan on a spirit quest to come to terms with all the things he’s done is his past, from the horrific to the just plain cowardly. Was it worth the wait? Join us for the podcast to find out what we thought.
Jan Wilson and Anthony cover the bloodiest chapter yet and dive deep into Tyrion’s “inner-asshole.” Steve is flabbergasted at the death of Joffrey. Anthony talks about Tyrion’s suicidal ideations and compares him with Jonah.
This week, we’ve got my absolute favorite Paul Giamatti movie, Sideways. It’s a well-written but also hilarious movie where an extremely depressed Paul Giamatti begrudgingly helps his college roommate philander his way through northern California wine country. It has some all-time classic Giamatti moments that we can’t wait to talk about. Get Sideways with us this on this podcast.
Here’s the continuity you’ve been looking for. We finally deal with the tragedy of Rick’s artificially preserved best friend, Birdperson in an episode loosely based on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Check out the podcast to hear us hypothesize about the canon implications of this episode, among other things, and join us back here during the week of September 5th for the back-to-back airing of the final two season 5 episodes.
Our dream of seeing AMC make an hour-long episode of “Cooking with Carol” finally comes true this week on TWD S10E21: “Diverged”. Seriously, Carol makes soup for AN ENTIRE HOUR and the episode is… well, about as good as our Cooking with Carol Skit. A big thank you to Mysteriana for creating the Watching Dead…
What a difference a word, and one excellent writer / director, makes! The Suicide Squad is a complete 360 from the steaming pile of garbage that was Suicide Squad. It’s fun, action-packed, ultra-violent and everything we would hope to see from the evolution of subversive superhero movies.
