Episode #100: Legacy - Fanboys
Thursday Mar 28, 2019
Thursday Mar 28, 2019
Wow episode 100! How do we keep hitting these milestones? Maybe they aren’t milestones because of how often we record. Today we have some amazing guests to help celebrate 100 episodes of the Reel Film Nerds Podcast, two-thirds of The Bluemilk Podcast Dirk AKA Drinking and Jacob AKA Hyena Boy. Mike Talent is still MIA. Rumor is he was captured by Oddjob after trying to steal Goldfinger’s golden girl. Why The Bluemilk guys you say, are you finally reviewing Star Wars? Sorry to disappoint you but nope. We are reviewing an incredible Star Wars related film though Fanboys. Bonus Bluemilk topics include Area 51, Kevin Smith, and the never ending nerd war between Star Trek and Star Wars fans.
Fanboys is a really incredible film especially if you like Star Wars even a little bit. If you are a super fan like Jacob, Dirk, and Matt you will enjoy it even more! It is a laugh out loud comedy littered with amazing cameos and actors who clearly are passionate about Star Wars as well. The cinematography is mediocre, the acting is good, but the script and the story is where this film really shines. Hyena Boy really enjoyed the film awarding it 3 out of 5 Reels. Drinking and Matt who are both infinitely wiser enjoyed Fanboys much more. They both award it 4 out of 5 Reels. If you have not watched it and you are a nerd do yourself a favor and check it out. It really is a good time.
I hope you enjoyed this past week’s special guests. If you did or if you didn’t let us know, we yearn for your feedback. Mike Talent and Matt are hoping to get more special guests on when they can to chat about movies. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share The Bluemilk Podcast on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

Episode #99: Legacy - Hondros
Tuesday Mar 26, 2019
Tuesday Mar 26, 2019
Welcome boys and girls to a fun and long Reel Film Nerds podcast! Mr. Mike Talent is not here today. He is out of country fulfilling his obligation for MI6. Luckily Matt is good at blackmailing people and was able to find a guest host for today, Mr. Mile High Show himself Matt Santos! The film they attempt to review today is Hondros a documentary on war photographer Chris Hondros. Topics include obviously lots and lots and lots of talk about photojournalism, downing Nyquil, and the Oakland A’s.
Both the Matt’s agree Hondros is an incredible doc on an amazing photographer that you can go watch right now on Netflix. Mr. Mile High Show is not a big fan of movies especially documentaries on photographers but he loved this one. He especially enjoyed the interviews of Chris’s mother about her son growing up with a camera in his hands. RFN Matt really enjoyed the film as well. He especially liked how the documentary was not just about Chris’ life but 3 of his most impactful images and the stories behind them. Matt Santos gives Hondros an amazing rating of 4 out of 5 Reels. RFN Matt goes a little bit above and beyond with 4.5 out of 5 Reels. He really loved this movie not just because it is about photography but it is a really great documentary in it’s own right.
Mike Talent will continue to be out of the country for our next pod this Thursday so Matt again is calling in a favor, a huge favor for our very special 100th Episode! Who you may ask is joining him well you will have to tune in on Thursday to find out. Here is a hint they also have a podcast. Chat with you on Thursday and hopefully Mike will find his way home next week so we can review the new Jordan Peele horror flick everyone is raving about, Us.

Episode #98: Tributary - Triple Frontier
Thursday Mar 21, 2019
Thursday Mar 21, 2019
Happy Thursday everyone!! Welcome to a brand spanking new Tributary podcast of the recently released Netflix Original Triple Frontier starring Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, and a Charlie Hunnam. What an amazing cast for a film let alone a Netflix Original! Topics today included 2 movies in 1, sequels, and delicious greed.
Triple Frontier is a decent movie, well the first half. The acting is great and the story was interesting but the second half of the movie falls apart quickly especially the story. Pedro Pascal knocked it out of the park. He is really getting some great roles recently and stepping up his game. The set pieces were beautiful and the cinematography was amazing, that makes two movies in a row with amazing cinematography. Matt thought the first half of the movie was great and the second half was terrible. Mike was not a huge fan of Ben Affleck’s character or his acting but still thought this was a pretty good movie. It was entertaining and well produced. Both of your host’s agree it is worth a watch if you have Netflix. It is not a must see but you will definitely be entertained. They both award Triple Frontier 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
Next week Mike Talent is out of country, literally! He is off taking another vacation or so he told Matt. Maybe he is really one of those James Bond types but keeping it a secret! Matt is working on a couple of fun shows for next week if the stars align. If they don’t I guess you will probably get a solo cast or two. Thanks for listening and tune in for a couple of special guests and a special pod for episode #100, if things work out. Wow, that is a lot of talking! At least 50 hours of movie reviews if not more! I am tired just thinking about editing all of those hours. Have a killer weekend and chat with you Tuesday.

Episode #97: The Kid (2019)
Tuesday Mar 19, 2019
Tuesday Mar 19, 2019
Guess what day it is, Tuesday AKA new podcast day! Our review today is a film that is being overshadowed by Captain Marvel, The Kid based around you guessed it Billy the Kid. Side topics include why don’t we have more western films today, Old Tucson Studios, and of course Clint Eastwood.
The Kid is a mediocre movie at best. The acting is decent, the sets are great, and the cinematography shines at moments. Ethan Hawke and Dane DeHann do adequate jobs as Sheriff Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. They are not their best roles in a film but not horrible either. Chris Pratt as a villain was great except for the lack of appearances. His character is literally in the film for maybe 15 minutes tops. Both Mike and Matt really would have liked to see what Pratt could do give enough screen time as a villain. The biggest problem with this film is the story. It is very unique and a different take on a story that has been told several times over but it is not a great. Both Matt and Mike agree if you have already seen Captain Marvel go catch this film. It is entertaining and fun and there really is not a whole of films in theaters right now. They both give 2019’s The Kid 3 out of 5 Reels.
This Thursday the guys talk about a brand new Netflix Original with an incredible cast, Triple Frontier. Thanks for listening to us chat about life, love, and movies. How do you think our hosts are doing? Over a year in and the pod continues on! Thanks again for spending time with us in your hearing holes and we will chat at you this Thursday, same pod time, same pod website.

Episode #96: Legacy - The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot
Thursday Mar 14, 2019
Thursday Mar 14, 2019
Happy post hump day aka Friday eve? Anyways today is Thursday which means new podcast day! Our review is about a film you probably never heard of but stars someone you have The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot starring Sam Elliott. Outside topics include MTV Unplugged, Letterboxd, and Captain Marvel.
The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot is not what you would expect. It really caught your hosts off guard. The title comes off as a really fun B movie but it’s not. This movie is very serious and very sad. It is not a bad movie but it is not incredible either. The acting is great especially by Sam Elliott. The sets and cinematography are breath taking especially the outside shots in Canada and Germany. The amazing title that throws you for a loop definitely hurt the ratings from your hosts. Matt enjoyed the movie but did not think it was great. He gives the film 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike Talent also liked The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot but was stunned by the tone and feel of the movie. He awards it 2 out of 5 Reels.
Next week we will be reviewing a western that came out the same week as Captain Marvel that is being overshadowed by it big time, The Kid based on the infamous Billy the Kid. Our second film is a brand new Netflix Original that dropped yesterday, Triple Frontier. It is an action film that takes place south of the border and has an amazing star studded cast to boot! Chat with you next week everyone.

Episode #95: Captain Marvel
Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
What a glorious day!!! It is our review of the first Marvel Cinematic Universe film of the year, Captain Marvel! We hope you are as excited as your two hosts’. The boys stay on point for most of the double sized pod. Bonus topics include Matt has more movie going issues, Mike really is a hardcore movie nerd, and a bit of comic book history about Captain Marvel including Kelly Sue DeConnick’s infamous run from 2012-2015 that the movie Carol Danvers is mostly based on. There is no MCU tie because duh this movie is in the MCU! A heads up though our spoiler section of the podcast starts at the 17 minute mark for those of you that have not seen the film yet.
No big surprise here but both the gents enjoyed Captain Marvel very much. Mike enjoyed it just a touch more. The acting was great, at times, the soundtrack was great especially if you are a child of the 90’s, and the sets looked pretty dang good too. The story was decent but the telling of Danvers’ origin story through flashbacks worked at times but not great. It is especially confusing at the start of the film. It was great to see the Skrull- Kree war finally brought to the big screen and surely this is only the beginning of a much larger story involving the two species. Mike really enjoyed Captain Marvel especially the soundtrack and the 90’s references. He gives the film 4 out of 5 Reels. Matt also enjoyed the movie but not nearly as much as Mike. He is not a huge fan of Brie Larson and her acting. He also was probably too nit picky for his own good. Damn nerds can’t please them all! He gives Captain Marvel 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
Thursday we hope to talk about a little Same Elliot film that flew under the radar, The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot. Matt is very busy with the NAZ Suns basketball season winding down with a very long home stand. Mike, well he is Mike and the day light savings time change makes recording a bit more challenging being on the east coast. We will do our best to get it done but if not don’t fret we will talk about the film next week. Enjoy our double sized pod of Captain Marvel and thanks again for stopping by and listening to two nerd’s geek out about films. Chat at you maybe Thursday.

Episode #94: Tributary - The Lost City of Z
Thursday Mar 07, 2019
Thursday Mar 07, 2019
Happy Friday eve everyone! Today your hosts Mike Talent and Matt crack open a brew and discuss a new Tributary Cast on The Lost City of Z an Amazon Original film. Special topics include the 2012 film Piranha 3DD, ayahuasca, and sleepy Mike needs to go to bed.
The Lost City of Z is a great idea for a film, but a poor execution. The story really drags on for a full 2 ½ hours. The scriptwriters really crammed way too much into the film. The interesting segments of exploring the Amazon were way too short and the political scenes were way too long. The casting and acting was excellent. There are some big name actors in this film and they all deliver great performances. It’s really odd the film drags and feels rushed at the same time. How is that possible? Mysterious Mike was very disappointed with this film. He wanted to see it originally in the theaters in 2017 but did not make it. He gives the film 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt thought it was just average. He felt there was a real missed opportunity to tell an incredible story that fell flat thanks to the script. He also awards The Lost City of Z 3 out of 5 Reels.
Tuesday is going to be awesome! Mysterious Mike and MCU Matt will discuss the first MCU movie of the year, Captain Marvel. Is it great, is it bad, and is the cat really that awesome? The guys will find out and report back to you so you don’t waste your time or money. Thanks again for stopping by and listening to two nerd’s geek out about films. Chat at you on Tuesday!

Episode #93: Legacy - Green Lantern
Tuesday Mar 05, 2019
Tuesday Mar 05, 2019
Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday is NEW PODCAST DAY! Today Matt and Mike fill a Legacy Cast request from an avid listener and friend of the show BJ one of the hosts’ of our sister pods The Blue Milk Podcast, where they talk about anything and everything Star Wars related and then some. BJ enjoys torturing Matt and times and I am sure this suggestion was one of those times, he requested 2011’s Green Lantern. Topics more interesting than this film include the upcoming Prescott based film Wish Man, listener love, and the true potential of the DC Extended Universe.
This movie is just rough. Your hosts do not recommend you spend any time watching it unless you really want to see how far superhero films have come in the past 8 years. There are moments that are not as horrible as others but for the most part this movie is a hard pass. Mike Talent enjoyed it more on his second viewing and graciously gives Green Lantern 2 out of 5 Reels. Matt on the other hand didn’t. He gives the movie 1 out of 5 Reels.
This Thursday the guys chat about an Amazon Original film The Lost City of Z. Captain Marvel comes out this Friday too, don’t forget! Your hosts will hopefully make it to the theaters this weekend and will give you their review of 2019’s first MCU film. Thanks for listening and don’t forget to shoot us an email riddled with hate or request a film to review or both! Please tell your friends and family about our fun little pod especially if you hate it. We will be back on Thursday to chat at you with another movie review while drinking a beer or two or three.

Episode #92: Tributary - Velvet Buzzsaw
Thursday Feb 28, 2019
Thursday Feb 28, 2019
Happy National Chili Day! Do yourself a favor head down to Phoenix, catch a spring training baseball game, and grab a chili dog. I know Mike and Matt would if they didn’t have jobs. Back to the topic at hand, today the boys swim upstream and catch the Netflix original Velvet Buzzsaw. Bonus annoying topics include snow beer, the art world and who really cares about it, and lastly home viewing experience versus going to a movie theater. That last topic the guys really went off on bad. It is an interesting discussion that warrants a listen but if you want to skip it the discussion takes place later towards the end of the pod.
Velvet Buzzsaw is a fun mystery thriller that takes place in a world not many people pay attention to. The cast is incredible and headlined by Jake Gyllenhaal and Rene Russo. The blood and gore is a bit over the top at times but hey it is a horror movie, so it’s expected. The plot and characters of the film are engaging and fantastic. Velvet Buzzsaw really reminds Mysterious Mike of the massive horror movie hit the Ring from 2002. The hosts both really enjoyed the film, but Matt enjoyed it more. He gives the movie 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike Talent thought it was just average for a horror movie, his favorite genre, he awards it 3 out of 5 Reels.
Next week the guys review a truly horrible movie Green Lantern. It is a request from BJ one of the hosts’ over at the Blue Milk Podcast. Let’s see how brutal Mike and Matt are with this review. Our second review for next week is an Amazon Prime original The Lost City of Z. A true-life drama, centering on British explorer Col. Percival Fawcett, who disappeared whilst searching for a mysterious city in the Amazon in the 1920s. Enjoy your weekend and we will chat with you on Tuesday.

Episode #91: Fighting with My Family
Tuesday Feb 26, 2019
Tuesday Feb 26, 2019
Happy National Pistachio Day! Just digging trying to say something different than happy Tuesday again. It’s new podcast movie review day too. Today Matt and Mike review a heartwarming film about wrestling, Fighting with My Family. Off topics include Mike Talent’s 2020 bid for President, the Academy Awards, and Arizona’s Snowpocalypse 2019.
Fighting with My Family is a fun and emotional comedy perfect for a night out with friends. You don’t have to be a fan of wrestling or even sports to enjoy this movie. Vince Vaughn and Nick Frost both known for their comedic roles knocked it out of the park with dramatic roles in this film. The Rock pops in twice adding a bit of levity during very serious moments. Matt would like to see more wrestling in the film including Paige’s rise through the ranks of NXT eventually winning the NXT Women's Championship belt. Mike Talent gives Fighting with My Family 3 out of 5 Reels. He really enjoyed the story especially how different it was. You do not see many movies about wrestling let alone wrestling families. Matt enjoyed the film as well but felt it was just a little bit above average. He gives it 3.5 out of 5 Reels. The acting was great, the story was great, he just felt it needed more wrestling.
Coming up on Thursday Matt and Mike review a mystery horror film that lit up Sundance this year, Velvet Buzzsaw by Dan Gilroy writer and director of Nightcrawler. Review the film with us, Velvet Buzzsaw is currently streaming on Netflix. Chat at you on Thursday.

Episode #90: Tributary - Polar
Thursday Feb 21, 2019
Thursday Feb 21, 2019
Welcome faithful listeners, we are on the downslide of hump day and you know what that means, A NEW REEL FILM NERDS PODCAST!!! Today the guys review a new Netflix original streaming film, Polar. It is the second film of the week based on a graphic novel/comic book. Needless to say, Matt is crazy excited! Extra topics this pod include is Hollywood out of ideas, the Coen brothers, and are there too many superhero movies?
Polar is a fun over the top action revenge movie. It drags a bit in the beginning so much so that Mike almost turned it off. It quickly picks up in the middle and quickly ramps up all the way to the end of the film. Polar is very reminiscent of The Raid, John Wick, and Smokin’ Aces all amazing and fun action movies. This is not a drop everything must-see movie but if you have time to spare you will not be disappointed. Mysterious Mike Talent and Just Matt agree, they both give Polar 3 out of 5 Reels.
Thanks for tuning in and joining us on our wild ride through cinema. What do you think about our Tributary movie reviews? Do you want more, less? Write us an email and let us know. Next week the boys will finally get to watch Fighting with My Family. A dramatic comedy biopic based on the true story of WWE super star Saraya “Paige” Bevis and her rise to fame. Have a great weekend and keep warm. We will chat at you on Tuesday.
Thanks for tuning in for another episode of two nerds talking about movies. Please do us a favor and tell your friends about the RFN podcast. Don’t forget to subscribe and listen to our sister podcasts The Blue Milk Podcast, Code 3 Podcast, and The Mile High Show.

Episode #89: Alita: Battle Angel
Tuesday Feb 19, 2019
Tuesday Feb 19, 2019
First episode of year two from the Reel Film Nerds podcast and man it’s a highly anticipated movie! Today Mike Talent and Maniac Matt discuss James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez’s latest epic Alita: Battle Angel. Bonus discussion includes 21st Amendment Brewery, Jennifer Connelly is still super-hot at almost 50, and what exactly is Manga.
Alita: Battle Angel is being destroyed by critics and financially at the box office. Honestly your hosts don’t care. They both really enjoyed the movie and think you should go see it too. Is it the perfect movie, no, but it is a hell of a lot of fun! With that being said it is not for everyone. If you enjoy action, technology, special effects, robots, or comic books you will enjoy this movie. Maniac Matt really liked Alita and almost gave it 4.5 Reels, but he let the film stew in his mind for a day and settled on 4 out of 5 Reels. The biggest issues he had with the film is the just horrible forced love story and the sometimes-rough dialog. Mike Talent also really enjoyed this film and almost gave it 4 out of 5 Reels like Matt but one issue Mike and Matt clearly have a telepathic link. Mr. Talent figured Matt would give it 4 Reels and wanted to make sure he was harsher than Matt. He gives Alita: Battle Angel 3.5 out of 5 Reels. To sum it all up don’t give up on this one before you see it. Go watch it and decide for yourself. The special effects alone are well worth the price of admission.
This Thursday the guys had to change the movie they are reviewing. Fighting with My Family was pushed back a week, why who knows. Instead Mike picked a Tributary film also based on a comic book that was recently released on Netflix, Polar. Thanks for tuning in for the start of our second-year podcasting. Do us a favor and help us grow our listeners this year by telling your friends, rating, and review us on iTunes. Talk at you Thursday!

Episode #88: The Poindexter Awards
Thursday Feb 14, 2019
Thursday Feb 14, 2019
The time is finally here! Are you as pumped as we are for this episode? The first ever Reel Film Nerds Poindexter Awards! It also happens to be our 1-year anniversary by the way. Wow a whole year of us chatting about movies, beer, and life. How is that possible? Here is your warning, this is our longest podcast ever! It is an hour and 45 minutes!
The guys really had a blast recording it well eventually recording it. Mike Talent gave up on trying to get is POS laptop working after 2 hours and grabbed an old desktop to record on. Lots of beers were consumed in the interim which probably helped with the pod.
Here is the run down. There are 25 total categories for the Poindexter Awards. The first part of the podcast your host’s fight it out over their picks in 13 different categories and there can only be one winner per category! Next there are 2 Listeners’ Award categories that all of you voted for well hopefully you voted for. Batting third are the Individual Awards. These categories are more personal, fun, and even zany! Each host gets a pick for each category with some discussion and laughs. Batting cleanup, the boys really get into it on their pick for the first Poindexter Award for Best Movie of the Year. Whew I know that is a lot to process.

Episode #87: Cold Pursuit
Tuesday Feb 12, 2019
Tuesday Feb 12, 2019
Welcome everyone! It is our anniversary week! Now we promised we would only record one episode this week since it’s a giant show, but we lied. Mr. Mike Talent and Matt really wanted to watch Taken in a Blizzard and discuss it. Maybe consider it a bonus episode? The guys rate and review Liam Neeson’s latest revenge film, Cold Pursuit. Extra topics today include talking during movies, zapatos, and the infamous Alamo Drafthouse.
Cold Pursuit is not what the guys thought it was going to be. It feels a lot more like Fargo then it does Taken. It is a revenge film but quickly turns from one story into three stories that intersect in fascinating ways. The cinematography was just beautiful and as Matt pointed out the homes they use as settings are incredible too. They are almost characters in their own right. Is this a must see film in the theaters, nope. If there are no new movies you want to watch at home and can’t wait for the weekend to see a new film, then sure go ahead and watch it. Mike Talent felt Cold Pursuit was ok and not anything special. He did enjoy it, but it fell a bit short for him especially in the story department. He awards Cold Pursuit 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Matt felt very similar about this film. It was just average. There were parts of it he really enjoyed but overall it was just an average movie. He gives the film 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
The time has come! This Thursday is our one-year anniversary and our first ever awards show, the Poindexter Awards! Did you get your vote in for the Listeners’ Podcast and Movie of the Year? If not it’s too late. HA! It is going to be a doozy of a show, AKA it is going to be very long. The guys had a blast recording it and we hope you enjoy listening to it. Have a great week and we will really chat at you on Thursday!

Episode #86: Legacy - The Other Guys
Thursday Feb 07, 2019
Thursday Feb 07, 2019
Are you as excited as we are? It’s only a week until our 1 year anniversary and the first ever Poindexter Awards!!! While we both are forced to wait we have a very fun Legacy Cast for you, Adam McKay and Will Ferrell’s The Other Guys. Extracurricular topics include Matt’s coworkers, our love of Michael Keaton, and do docudramas do more than entertain?
Mike and Matt just love this movie so much so all they did was talk about their favorite parts of it for the entire podcast. The Other Guys is really underrated. It is a much better film than the critics say it is. The jokes and writing are fantastic and the comedic timing is just about perfect. The action is great especially from a mostly comedic director. The inclusion of The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson although very brief is an amazing and fun surprise. Matt gives the film 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike in that rare occasion has a higher rating than Matt. He gives The Other Guys 4.5 out of 5 Reels.
Don’t forget to go vote for your movie of the year on our Facebook page. The poll will come to a close when we record this coming Sunday. The guys promised only one podcast next week well they lied. They both really want to watch and discuss Liam Neeson’s Taken in a blizzard better known as Cold Pursuit. Look for that one on Tuesday and the highly anticipated Poindexter Awards on Thursday! Have an incredible weekend and make sure you go out and catch a movie!

Episode #85: Legacy - Wayne's World
Tuesday Feb 05, 2019
Tuesday Feb 05, 2019
Tuesday is here and that means another incredible podcast review from your besties at the Reel Film Nerds! Today The Talent and Just Matt talk about one of their favorite Legacy Cast’s Wayne’s World, PARTY TIME! Bonus topics include sports ball finale, The Talent’s wedding, and Wayne’s World trivia.
Wayne’s World is a classic incredible film that you must go watch now. The story is amazing and extremely relatable at least for Mike and Matt. The performances are great, the sets are extremely detailed, and the soundtrack oh man the soundtrack is just perfect! Again, if you can’t tell Matt and Mike really love this movie. It’s smart, zany, and incredibly fun. They both give it 4.5 out of 5 Reels.
Thursday your hosts continue the fun and levity with the review of The Other Guys. Another amazing and fun comedy to put it mildly. After the past few weeks of tough hard-hitting movies and upcoming award shows both the hosts just needed some good laughs. Don’t forget to vote for your movie and podcast of the year. If you don’t want to email us, we started a Facebook Poll available at this LINK. Have a great week and we will chat at you Thursday, same pod time, same pod place.

Episode #84: Legacy - Bomb City
Thursday Jan 31, 2019
Thursday Jan 31, 2019
Are you ready for your last pod of the week? No? Well here it is anyways. Today your hosts Mysterious Mike Talent and drunken Matt review a little known film based on a true story, Bomb City. The movie takes place in a small Texas town between two very different clashing social classes. Bonus topics today include #OE4Life, SLC Punk, and your hosts’ high school days.
Bomb City is a very good film. The story is extremely compelling and the way it was told was unique and misdirecting. The acting was not the best by some of the supporting cast but the stars shined brightly. The scenes were setup well and the sets looked great mostly because they were filmed on location in Texas. The dance through the story’s timeline was unique and did not always work. The story though is what really makes this movie great. Mysterious Mike Talent and dumb drunken Matt both agree that Bomb City deserves 4 out of 5 Reels.
The guys are still working out what to watch for next week. Once again the movie theaters do not have much coming out. It is awards season so it is expected. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite film of the year and podcast of the year for our first Poindexter Awards. Have a nice weekend and we will chat at you on Tuesday!

Episode #83: Tributary - Roma
Tuesday Jan 29, 2019
Tuesday Jan 29, 2019
It’s another Tuesday and that means you lucky listeners get another incredible Reel Film Nerds Podcast! Today your host’s Mike Talent and boring Matt discuss a Netflix Original Film that is nominated for multiple Academy Awards including Best Picture, Roma. Other topics include Mexico, voting for the Poindexter Awards, and Netflix movies in theaters.
Roma is a good stylistic film that has a sad and incomplete story. It seems to not really having a beginning or an end. It is not a bad story it is just not compelling. The film’s cinematography is amazing but writer and director Alfonso Cuarón uses a wide-angle pan shot over and over and over. It is incredible the first two or three times you see it, but he just does not stop using it. Mike enjoyed Roma but feels it is just an average film. He gives it 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt enjoyed the film more than Mike, but he really did not like the story. He gives the film 4 out of 5 Reels.
On Thursday the guys talk about a film most if not all of you have never heard of, Bomb City. It is based on a true story that takes place in a small Texas town between two very different clashing social classes. It is available to stream on Amazon Prime right now. Have a great week and we will chat at you Thursday, same time, same place.

Episode #82: Legacy - You Were Never Really Here
Thursday Jan 24, 2019
Thursday Jan 24, 2019
Welcome everyone! Hang in there it is almost Friday then you can get out and catch a movie! Today Mike and Matt review a very dark and thought-provoking film You Were Never Really Here starring Joaquin Phoenix. Off topics include the Academy Awards, our love of Joaquin Phoenix, and equipment failures again but this time it was Mike!
You Were Never Really Here is an incredible film but again it is super dark. Joaquin Phoenix and Ekaterina Samsonov both did amazing jobs acting. The sound design shocked Matt. It was so incredible even on his crappy surround sound system he just couldn’t believe it. The cinematography and directing were amazing as well. This is a must watch film but again here is another warning the subject matter is extremely dark. Matt really likes this film and thinks it should have garnered more viewings and award nominations than it has. He gives it a great score of 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike also really enjoyed You Were Never Really Here. The darkness and subject matter did put him off just a bit, but he still liked the film a lot. He gives it 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
The guys are still trying to figure out what they want to review for next week. The theaters are pretty light right now with new releases. Matt wants to review a couple of films that your hosts missed in the theaters because of their fairly small releases, Bomb City and Eighth Grade. Tune in on Tuesday to see what they settle on. Chat with you then!

Episode #81: Glass
Tuesday Jan 22, 2019
Tuesday Jan 22, 2019
Well what do we have here another Tuesday? You know what that means it’s time for a new Reel Film Nerds podcast for your listening pleasure! Today your hosts talk about the latest M. Night Shyamalan flick, Glass. Matt really starts the pod out off topic, sorry, we will work on reining him in on Thursday. The copious off topics include the new Fyre Festival documentaries, Punisher Season 2, and Matt guest stars on The Mile High Show Episode #199 and The Blue Milk Podcast’s upcoming Episode 66 about the Sith!
Mike and Mat are extremely confused about Glass. They do not understand why the critics hate this film. It is not the best M. Night Shyamalan movie but it is definitely not his worst. James McAvoy’s acting is out of this world! Samuel L. Jackson and Bruce Willis do a great job as well especially during some nonverbal scenes. The soundtrack is good and the cinematography is great except for a couple of times where it looked like they used a GoPro. Your hosts both really enjoyed the movie but it is not a must see in the theaters unless you want to go to the movies because there really is not much out right now. Mike gives Glass a respectable 3 out of 5 Reels. Matt enjoyed the film just a hair more than Mike; he gives it 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
This Thursday the guys will finally get around to reviewing You Were Never Really Here. If you want to watch it before the review on Thursday it is currently streaming on Amazon Prime. Chat at you then.

Episode #80: Legacy - Clyde Cooper
Thursday Jan 17, 2019
Thursday Jan 17, 2019
Good day everyone! Today Matt and Mysterious Mike have a real treat for you. They received their first ever screener!! Exciting right? It is for us! The film the guys are chatting about is titled Clyde Cooper. It is a detective film noir murder mystery B movie that takes place in Silicon Valley. Off topics for this episode include the Micro Machine guy, power hour, and vaping.
Clyde Cooper is an interesting story but a rough execution. The writing is really bad and flat out doesn’t make sense at times. The acting really could have been a lot better. Some of the camera angles and shooting styles that were chosen to tell the story did not work. The opening of the film is very strange and could have been completely left out or explained more. This film just left your hosts wanting more. It feels rushed and really could have been entertaining if it was executed right. Mysterious Mike gives Clyde Cooper 1 out 5 Reels. Matt is a little more generous as always because he did enjoy the story as a whole. The premise intrigued him. He gives the film 1.5 out of 5 Reels.
Next week your hosts return with a review of Glass the highly anticipated sequel to Unbreakable and Split. Let’s hope all the critics are wrong and that Glass is a good movie. We will let you know Tuesday. Our second pod of the week on Thursday, the guys will finally get around to reviewing You Were Never Really Here after talking about it for over a week. If you have Amazon Prime it is streaming there right now. Watch it along with us. Thanks for listening and we will chat at you next week.

Episode #79: Replicas
Tuesday Jan 15, 2019
Tuesday Jan 15, 2019
Happy Tuesday everyone, literally it’s one of the worst days of the week. Yes everyone says it’s Monday but we all know it is really Tuesday except for the tacos. Today your two co-hosts review Keanu Reeves first craptastic film of 2019, Replicas. Serious Keanu just stick with John Wick those films are incredible. Bonus topics this week include Altered Carbon, movie critics suck, and Matt has a case of the Monday’s.
Replicas is just an all around bad movie. The acting was terrible, they tried to cram too many stories into an hour and 47 minute film, oh and did I mention the acting was terrible, yes?, just wanted to make sure. If you love sci-fi, cloning, and a dystopian future just go watch the Netflix TV show Altered Carbon. It is similar to Replicas in a lot of ways but a hell of a lot better. Matt and Mike cannot recommend anyone to go see this film. It’s just bad. They both graciously give it 2 out of 5 Reels.
Coming up on Thursday the guys received their very first screener from a movie studio, Clyde Cooper. It is a film noir crime drama based in Silicon Valley dealing with tech and deception. If you are interested in watching it before Thursday it is available on Amazon to buy or rent. Have a good week and chat at you then!

Episode #78: Tributary - Bird Box
Thursday Jan 10, 2019
Thursday Jan 10, 2019
Hi everybody! Welcome back to the Reel Film Nerds Podcast! Today Matt’s backup mic is working great! Overtime even because it literally picks up every sound in the room. Today Mysterious Mike and Matt bring you a new Tributary cast with their review of Bird Box. Off topic topics include a new segment what are you drinking, The Walking Dead, lack of time in our lives, and lastly the first RFN awards show!
Bird Box is basically a mash up between A Quiet Place (RFN Episode #10) and The Happening. It is an incredible thrill ride from start to finish. The acting is incredible especially by Sandra Bullock and John Malkovich but honestly when do they not shine? The story is very good, and the sets look great. I think this is starting to become an issue, but both of your hosts agree Bird Box has a great showing for Mike and an average showing for Matt with 3.5 out of 5 Reels! This is a must see sci-fi thriller even if you do not have Netflix. Just steal a friend or co-workers login and watch it.
Next week the guys plan on watching the new Keanu Reeves film Replicas and either Bomb City or You Were Never Really Here. Both are currently available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Thanks for your continued support of our podcast. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoy recording it! Chat with you next Tuesday!

Episode #77: Aquaman
Tuesday Jan 08, 2019
Tuesday Jan 08, 2019
Hi everybody and welcome to another craptastic Reel Film Nerds podcast! Hey its been a long time since we had a truly craptastic episode and it's all Matt's fault! He had some serious recording issues this episode, so his audio is hot garbage. Mysterious Mike sounds great so only have the podcast is craptastic? Back on point, something broke in his mic and he did not know it so if you skip this pod we understand just don't skip seeing Aquaman in the theaters. The guys still had fun and got off topic probably too much while talking about Aquaman. Extracurricular topics include The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Disney taking over the world, Star Wars of course, and Marvel versus DC.
Both of your hosts loved Aquaman. It is a fun cheesy movie with gobs of action and incredible visuals. This is what superhero movies are supposed to be. Not all of them must be extremely serious and grounded. Having one be an amazing popcorn action flick where the actors had tons of fun making it is refreshing. Mysterious Mike and Matt agree Aquaman is a must see in theaters basically because it is just so darn pretty! They both give the film 4 out of 5 Reels!
This Thursday the guys talk about the Netflix movie that is exploding across the Internets, Bird Box. They attempt to understand why it is so popular and even sparking Internet challenges. Chat at you on Thursday where we promise the audio won’t sound like crap, well less crap Matt is still co-hosting the podcast for now.

Episode #76: Triple Feature
Thursday Jan 03, 2019
Thursday Jan 03, 2019
Welcome everyone to our first Triple Feature episode. We did our best to keep it to a half hour but failed miserably. Today your amazing hosts Matt and Mysterious Mike reviewed Bumblebee, Welcome to Marwen, and Vice. Extracurricular topics included wrestling actors, camera’s, and politics. To tell you the truth they mostly kept on topic throughout each review. Matt even reigned in Mike a couple of times if you can believe it!
We are going to try to keep our show notes short and sweet so you can spend your time listen to our pod and not reading about it. To sum it all up quickly go see Bumblebee and Vice. Skip Welcome to Marwen unless you are really bored and want to see Steve Carell give one of his best performances ever. Here go our ratings if you want to skip actual podcast. Bumblebee, Matt likes it a ton but he is a giant nerd who grew up loving Transformers. He gives it 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike really enjoyed it but like always is harsh with his ratings, he gives Bumblebee 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Neither of your hosts thought highly of Welcome to Marwen. Mike gives it 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Matt really was let down by this film and rated it lower than Mike giving it 2 out of 5 Reels. Our last review is Adam McKay’s Vice. Matt really enjoyed Vice but thought some of the story telling elements were just weird and take you out of the film. He awards Vice 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike on the other hand really loved Vice awarding it his highest rating of the 3 films with 4 out of 5 Reels.
We hope you enjoyed our first Triple Feature podcast. If you did or did not please email or message us and let us know. Maybe we will do this again when another movie-pocalypse is upon us! Next week Matt and Mike review Aquaman on Tuesday and another film on Thursday. What film is the question. Maybe that new Netflix movie everyone is losing their minds over Bird Box. Chat at you on Tuesday!
