Happy Halloween!

How did we get here? The same way the coin got here! We start this part going over the 2007 oscars! What won and what we think should have won. Then, we talk deeply about these movies and what on earth we think is going on in them. Last, we bring out ye ol' dad questions and ask whether these are all dad movies/a dad series.  This was a honest and interesting discussion for all of us. We hope you enjoy it. Happy Birthday Mike!

Friends and Neighbors, we return this week to the land of magic and mayhem, the land of large creatures and even larger victories, we return one final time into the mind of the great, the inescapable, the indefatigable Steven Spielberg!  This is the moment you've been waiting for, the pinnacle, the finale, the whole purpose of this series - are JAWS, JURASSIC PARK, and THE BFG fit to enter the halls of the DAD CANON? The answer may move you, it may surprise you, it may threaten you - but we pray that you will stick through it to the end. You've gotten this far, my pretties. Don't give up now. We'd love to hear from YOU about your thoughts on our new format, what we missed, or anything else you want to comment on.   We'll be taking a short break after this and are very excited to return with a whole new series in October!

Friends and Neighbors, what's better than a whole new approach and a whole new series? NO IDEA when the episodes are going to drop! That's right, this was definitely on purpose. No it wasn't, we're busy/lazy people and today is the earliest we were able to publish. Sorry. THIS WEEK, we bring you back to the land of MOVIE MAGIC, the land that was discovered, built, and perfected by the one, the only - Steven Spielberg. That's right, we're going back to JAWS. Going back to JURASSIC PARK. And going back to... the BFG? Well, two and a half out of three ain't so bad. This week, we're talking about what we like, what we LOVED, and what we're kinda meh about. CHECK IT OUT! We'd love to hear from YOU about your thoughts on our new format, what we missed, or anything else you want to comment on.   Be sure to check back in NEXT WEEK for Part 3!

Friends and Neighbors, we come to you bearing glad tidings of great change. Small change. Well, some sort of change. With this next series, we're trying something ENTIRELY DIFFERENT with the formatting - instead of breaking up the episodes by movie, we're breaking them up by conversation.  Here, for our inaugural series of the new NYFM format, we have: STEVEN SPIELBERG CREATURE FEATURES! The films we are talking about here are Jaws, Jurassic Park, and Roald Dahl's BFG. That's right! Two of the biggest movies ever made, and a 'Oh, that one?' Wait and see, dear listener. Wait and see. We will be spending the next three weeks talking about everything we normally talk about here, but allowing some of the larger conversation to flow freely between and among the movies. What do we talk about? WHO! WHAT! WHERE! HOW! WITH! OTHER STUFF!  We'd love to hear from YOU about your thoughts on our new format, what we missed, or anything else you want to comment on.   Be sure to check back in NEXT WEEK for Part 2!

It is Dan's First Birthday Episode! In case you thought Dan was a normal, chill dude, be ready for some surprises in this episode. He chose to discuss two very strange, existentialist movies. The 2009 film by Jaco Van Dormael, Mr. Nobody and the 2013 film by Denis Villeneuve, Enemy. These are wild, intense, very adult, and our conversations are just as wild, intense, and somewhat adult. We dive into what the heck existentialist means, whether you have to like a movie for it to impact you in a meaningful way, and other light-hearted topics. We hope you enjoy this discussion and beware spoilers! Also, please check out Sirr's Furniture! He produces some amazing pieces of woodworking and we can personally vouch for the quality of his work.

Here is Vito's Second Annual Birthday Episode!   Last year, Vito wanted to cover choreography, both with musicals and fight choreography. And to cover that, Vito picked The Raid, The Raid: Berendal, and All That Jazz.   This year is totally different.   The discussion this year is computer generated images versus practical effects. Basically, we are using The Thing (1982) and The Thing (2011) to compare and contrast the two different approaches to special effects.   We hope you enjoy this discussion and beware spoilers!   Also, please check out Sirr's Furniture! He produces some amazing pieces of woodworking and we can personally vouch for the quality of his work.

NSFW: Crude jokes and language (except one of Mike's F-bombs are bleeped out for some reason. Why? Because I am mediocre.) This episode is so chrome. Its so shiny. Actually, it ain't shiny at all. Vito is under the weather, Jesse is sick as well, Dan's library ran out of wifi, and Mike read the word "Imperator" wrong. Its a strange episode and I love it. We have an amazing discussion about this insane action movie that is one of the most entertaining movies of all time.  We hope you enjoy the finale to the Cars Series! Is this a dad movie though? Or is it just mediocre? Also, please check out Sirr's Furniture! He produces some amazing pieces of woodworking and we can personally vouch for the quality of his work.

The third and perhaps most surprising installment in our CARS series (as in movies WITH cars, not the Cars movies) is Speed Racer! If you have seen this movie then you will understand when we warn you this episode is fast, exciting, and a little all over the place. We grapple with our opinions - is this art for art's sake? Who was the intended audience for this movie? Was there an intended audience for this movie? And that is just during lap one. Please buckle up and join us for this fun and exciting conversation. We promise if things crash and burn, the worst that can happen is you will bounce away in a soft cushy bubble. GO SPEED GO!!!!

Next up for our CAR MOVIES that absolute unequivocal category of dad movies we have the carsiest one of them all, CARS! If you've seen this movie, you know what it's about. If you haven't (weird) I'll give you three guesses.  Jesse and Mike were BOTH out this week as they apparently don't have what it takes but fortunately  we are rejoined this week by our very own Mr. Speed himself: Sirr! from Sirr's Furniture and My Movie Fix Podcast.

Is there anything more "dad" than a car? Or a bus? Or Freeways? No there is not.  We are tackling some of our favorite tire-squealin' movies. The rubber really meets the asphalt in this series! (heh)   Today we are talkin' Speed! The Keanu Reeves classic of not trying to hit everything on the road. We get into some arguments in this one. Namely about freeways. (seriously though, how does NO-ONE know that the freeway isn't finished?) We talk about the good ol' 90s movie days, back when you could sit your butt down and just enjoy bad guys bein' bad and good guys bein' good.

The final episode of our Chronological Crowe series has finally arrived! It has been travelling all the way from the far side of the world, survived many naval battles, and maybe even had brain surgery. We discuss many topics regarding leadership, pride, choosing the lesser of two weevils - we get deep! We can't believe how amazingly this movie has withstood the test of time. And finally, a thank you to Russell Crowe for taking us on this journey through the past 4000 years. It has been an amazing journey and I am sure we will be back to continue it with you into the 20th and 21st centuries! Hope you enjoy listening!

Continuing on our journey through time, history, grit, grime, and glory - we have our next incarnation of our Gruff Australian hero... ROBIN HOOD.   Has this movie stood the test of time?   Let's be honest, I think most of us forgot about it until now. BUT NOT DAN!    Also as we've spoken about in the past our podcast has some trouble with our sense of the space-time continuum and so the future series mentioned at the end of the episode here MAY OR MAY NOT come soon.    WE SHALL SEE.

"Are you not entertained?!?" Russell Crowe is back for what is his most acclaimed movie, Gladiator! Not only critically acclaimed, this movie also has some deep roots in our hosts' nostalgia. We talk about our experiences as teenagers watching this movie for the first time as well as other 'swords and sandals' type movies. Are we supposed to be entertained by the heads rolling on the screen? Does this make us just as bad as the romans watching real heads roll in the coliseum? We try to tackle these and other deep questions that are enough to make our own heads roll....  So sit back, relax, run your hand through some wheat and click play on this episode. We hope you enjoy!
