Gangs of New York
26 JUN 2024 · We end Epic Movie Month with the only Martin Scorsese film to feature Daniel Day-Lewis along with one of the most misguided uses of the Irish accent, Gangs of New York. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.facebook.com/TheDiscConnected/&ved=2ahUKEwjD5Kqc6_iGAxWTGtAFHZEcDFUQFnoECBUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2gFy8-af3DWbzMRGxCOKnj join the episode to Day-Lewis, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Scorsese's later works.
The film follows the story of Amsterdam Vallon, a man who's father is murdered by Bill the Butcher in 1850's New York and vows revenge upon him. It's a classic revenge tale set in a time and place rarely mined in media, making the overrated nature of the film that much more disappointing.

Noah
21 JUN 2024 · We continue Epic Movie Month with a look at the biggest budget film auteur Darren Aronofsky has ever directed, the biblical epic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdu10cX3pWA&pp=ygUMbm9haCB0cmFpbGVy. The Projection Booth's Mike White and Dark Destination's Father Malone join the episode to talk Darren Aronofsky's career, the biblical text, and Ray Winstone.
The film follows the biblical story of Noah and his family as they are tasked with building the Ark to withstand the coming flood. While the film tells the story before and after the Flood, it maybe should have stayed more antidiluvian than anything else.

Reds
5 JUN 2024 · We kick off Epic Movie Month with a film that is directed, co-written, produced, and starred in by one of Hollywood's top leading men, Warren Beatty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO_JRFXvMpk&pp=ygUPcmVkcyAxOTgxIG1vdmll. Texas Tech University Professor of Media and Communication David Perlmutter and https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.theworldiswrongpodcast.com/&ved=2ahUKEwivtIirk8SGAxXK5skDHWa6IM0QFnoECAYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw22uefyqEPuThuSenLEMVb1 join the episode to talk Warren Beatty's reputation, Jack Nicholson's role, and what makes an "epic".
The film follows the life of journalist and writer John Reed as he attempts to cover one of the most important events of the 20th century: the two Russian revolutions. Along the way, he finds love, gets directly involved in the Communist Party, and becomes much more than just a writer.

Les Fugitifs
1 JUN 2024 · We end Mike White May, this year all about Francis Veber films and their remakes, with the first Veber film to star Martin Short, but definitely not the last, Les Fugitifs. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.projectionboothpodcast.com/&ved=2ahUKEwjA2qyVsYuGAxXt78kDHZUEDM4QFnoECAYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1kqqIc_2NwK9HZNpE_uhfl and https://www.richardhatemsparanormalbookshelf.com/ join the episode to talk
Martin Short again, Nick Nolte, and the respective child actors.
The two films follow a former bank robber who, on his first day out of prison, gets mixed up in a robbery gone, and has to try and sort out his life and the robber's life as well.

Mad Max Fury Road
24 MAY 2024 · We take a break from Mike White May with the fourth in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XotnyLjS8fo&pp=ygUHZnVyaW9zYQ%3D%3D with a look at the latest entry in the series and a perfect film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASVPXy10rA8&pp=ygUSbWFkIG0gYXggZnVyeSByb2Fk. https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/midnight-viewing-the-horror-anthology-podcast--5443886 joins the episode to talk Immortan Joe, Charlize Theron, and the recasting of Mad Max.
Directed once again by George Miller and starring a recast Tom Hardy as Max, it's a high octane thrill-ride across the savaged wasteland of dystopian Austrailia. It's one of the most stunning pieces of practical filmmaking ever put to screen and a worthy entry into the "Perfect Film Club".

La Chèvre / Pure Luck
24 MAY 2024 · We near the end of Mike White May, this year all about Francis Veber films and their remakes, with the first pairing of a duo that would become famous for their works together in La Chevre. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.projectionboothpodcast.com/&ved=2ahUKEwjA2qyVsYuGAxXt78kDHZUEDM4QFnoECAYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1kqqIc_2NwK9HZNpE_uhfl and https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/film-foundations--6058746join the episode to talk
Martin Short, Pierre Richard, and why the remake doesn't work.
The two films follow a private investigator tasked with finding a wealthy client's supremely unlucky daughter by forcing him to work with an equally unlucky man from the wealthy client's business. It's high concept that struggles to be as funny as the intial setup seems to think it is.

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
23 MAY 2024 · We take a break from Mike White May with the third in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XotnyLjS8fo&pp=ygUHZnVyaW9zYQ%3D%3D with a look at the final film in the original trilogy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLgmoMezYRE&pp=ygUabWFkIG1heCBiZXlvbmQgdGh1bmRlcmRvbWU%3D. https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/midnight-viewing-the-horror-anthology-podcast--5443886 joins the episode to talk guzzoline, Aunty Entity, and why this movie has gotten a bad rap.
Directed once again by George Miller and starring Gibson once again, the film follows the titular Max as must contend with wasteland politics and resource scarity in Bartertown, a town run by Tina Turner's pitch perfect Aunty Entity. Throw in a dash of Peter Pan for good measure and you have the George Miller-est entry into the franchise yet.
