GATW Podcast Ep. 18: DO YOU MIND?

Have you ever seen a movie that was completely confusing, brain-bending, and leaves you thinking. Some may call this cerebral cinema, but we like to call them mind-fucks.

GATW Podcast Ep. 13: TV to Film

I love it when a plan comes together! I also love making overtly obvious film references just because they are relevant! Said relevance comes from the fact that THE A-TEAM is kicking down the doors of your local cineplex to fill your eyes full with its Liam Neeson goodness. There’s no better way to ring in this summer movie than to talk about its roots, because it started as a television series. So we’re here to honor those shows that made it to the big screen, and name drop some of our favorites!

GATW Podcast Ep. 11: Max Pain

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m still trying to figure out why the official theme song for PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME isn’t Cher’s “If I could turn back time.” I can’t help but wonder things like this with PRINCE OF PERSIA being this weekends big summer action movie, one that just so happens to be based off a video game series. Video game movies often aren’t received very well, but they keep coming out. But can PRINCE OF PERSIA break the cycle with its high production costs and quality actors? I guess we’ll find out, but until then let’s talk the good, the bad, and the video game movie.
