A movie podcast that chronicles the greatest battle in cinema.
Machine and Horse decide to have a one night stand on this episode. The new release TWO NIGHT STAND inspires a look back at two other films about responsible adults making an irresponsible decision on one fateful day or night. Those two irresponsible films are 1986's SOMETHING WILD and 1993's INDECENT PROPOSAL.
Join Shane Conner, Michael Denniston, and Christopher Maynard as they get down in the mucky-muck and examine the balls of Robert Redford.
We attempt to solve THE ZERO THEOREM to figure out the meaning of life, but even with our research on previous film efforts to uncover life's greatest mystery in IKIRU and I HEART HUCKABEES, we still just end up debating the X-Men film franchise.
Join Shane Conner, Michael Denniston, and Christopher Maynard as they also talk the best death rattle music to bring down the buzz in a bar.
THE MAZE RUNNER has us trying to quickly escape the maze of LABYRINTH, and we get lost in debating which path to take in PRISONERS.
GUEST: Patrick McGill of Role Play Craft manages to find David Bowie and co-host Shane Conner equally offensive, which is a compliment to Shane.
On this episode, the three of us have gathered to say WalrusYes to TUSK, about a man who has the simple dream of wanting to turn another man into a walrus. This inspires a look back at other mishaps in the history of man becoming more than human with 1986’s THE FLY and the 2009 film, SPLICE. So before you race off and start the hashtag WarmachinehorseYes check out this episode. You may find our podcast just as terrifying.
GUEST: Christopher Maynard of Following Films joins us to discuss Jeff Goldblum's hair and the exploding interest in podcasts about men's hair on film.
We put on our best paper mache heads to go catch the new release FRANK at the theaters. After that opening act, the headliners of THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON vs. SCOTT WALKER 30 CENTURY MAN captivate and puzzle us.
GUEST: Tangible Teddy brings his tangible viewpoint to music made by punching a slab of meat.
MYSTIC RIVER & GONE BABY GONE battle for Dennis Lehane territory with the release of THE DROP.
GUEST: Aaron Saylor, author of Sewerville, joins us in this shady business of podcasting.
LIFE OF CRIME inspires us on a kidnapping of two older films in FARGO vs. PAIN & GAIN. One a classic, one with a lot of snow.
GUEST: Christopher Maynard of Following Films joins us to either put us in a wood chipper or to pump some iron with us.
THE CONGRESS presents us with an interesting choice in it's story of a fictional version of Robin Wright... And since we won't pretend to understand this film completely, though it is fun to try, we present a simpler choice to our audience: THE MATRIX vs. VANILLA SKY.
GUEST: Christopher Maynard of Following Films tries to help us in our choices, but we still end up in a car with an agitated Cameron Diaz.
THE ONE I LOVE offers us a strange guest house, but can it top a trip to Maine to see Steve Carell in HOPE SPRINGS, or The Future Room of BLUE VALENTINE? We may need counseling before we make a commitment.
Now that we've seen BOYHOOD, we get nostalgic for two earlier Richard Linklater films, TAPE and BEFORE SUNSET, where past events still dominate the characters' present. And that present is presented in real time to the audience.
GUEST: JD Duran of InSession Film joins me to defend our love of the BEFORE trilogy to our respective fantasy football leagues.
It's a podcast cook off with the re-release of CHEF as an appetizer to a look back at WAITRESS & JIRO DREAMS OF SUSHI, two older films about a chef and a child.
GUEST: Patrick McGill of Role Play Craft bring his nerd expertise to foodie flicks and child-rearing (in no particular order).
We take the best thing about SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR, the subtitle, and look at two much better films with dames that cause men to kill for them: DOUBLE INDEMNITY vs. THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE.
GUEST: Christopher Maynard of Following Films joins us to talk classic films that can feel like homework, remakes, and to make fun of Mike's headphones.
