#100 - NOPE - Spoiler Free and Spoiler Filler Review + Discussion
Jordan Peele inspired Josiah and John to create this podcast, and so it is appropriate that his film, NOPE, is the subject of our 100th episode. Nope is a genre breaking critique of the modern (and ultimately) human infatuation with spectacle. The film channels Jaws, the great westerns of the 1950s and 60s, a host of paranoid, alien invasion films, and Spielberg's cinematic style. All of that is supported by beautiful visual imagery, stellar acting, deep cinema history references, and a well crafted plot. Josiah and John have been waiting since seeing US to review and discuss Peele's work on the podcast and they don't skip a beat. The conversation is their reaction and unrehearsed analysis and, like the film, does not kick into high gear until midway through the conversation. It is all great fun, but the meat comes after some verbal antipasto. Check out the timestamps below to see where you want to join into the dialogue.

#99 - Thor: Love and Thunder - Review + Discussion
Back after a hiatus filled with births and death, Josiah and John journey to the realms of the gods to explore Taika Waititi's second Thor film. This one has met with some controversy, but love it or butcher it, Love and Thunder opens a path in the Bifrost for much more MCU magic. Richly Waititiesque, Love and Thunder is both tonally inconsistent and emotionally satisfying.

#97 - Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - Review + Discussion
And we're back after a few weeks off due and we're discussing and reviewing the newest addition to the MCU, Dr. Strange In The Multiverse of Madness. Raimi fans will love it. Non-Raimi fans might have problems with it. We fall into both categories and appreciate the filmmaking aspect, but also think that some of Raimi's specific style really causes... you know what? Just listen to the podcast and hear our critique. Normally we're pretty forgiving with MCU films, but we really have some issues here. What did you think of the film?

#96 - The Northman - Review + Conversation
The Northman is a downright brutal film. And we talk about all of it. Our review and conversation about The Northman covers everyting from the intensity of the music, to the unbelievable shots, and the entire epic-ness of it all, and so much more. We actually had to stop ourselves because we could've talked for another hour together about this film. Eggers certainly delivered on a $90 Million Viking epic. As usual, there are spoilers ahead on this episode.

#95 - Everything Everywhere All At Once - Review + Conversation
If you're someone who says that original movies aren't being made, well you couldn't be more wrong. Everything Everywhere All At Once is a prime example of a wildly original idea that is both absurd and full of emotion and heart. This is hands down one of the best films of 2022 and it's only April! There are spoilers everywhere in this episode and we highly encourage you to watch this film without any expectations so that you can experience the magic that is Everything Everywhere All At Once without any pre-conceived ideas. So that means skip this episode, watch the film, and come back and listen to us talk about the movie.

#93 - The Batman - Review + Conversation
Another year, another Batman reboot. HOWEVER, this one is different. Pattinson wears the cowl this time and his Batman is striking, and his Gotham is more grounded in the real world. Is it better than Nolan's The Dark Knight? Well, we discuss that, of course, along with with everything from Greig Fraser's astounding cinematography to Michael Giacchino's brilliant scoring, to all of the little things like Batman gadgets, Kravitz's Catwoman, and so much more. Seriously, we could've talked for another hour.

In our review and conversation of Ridley Scott's latest film, The Last Duel, we're heading back 14th century France to witness three accounts of Jean de Carrouges, Jacque le Gris, and Marguerite, and in the process, make our own assumptions of who is telling the truth. In the end, the truth will be revealed by God as we witness a trial by combat between de Carrouges and le Gris that will determine the fate of Marguerite. This film is full of subtle performances, precise direction, and attention to detail. We're discussing much of this film from both a filmmaking and storytelling perspective so join us for a great conversation about this film!

#88 - Witcher Watch - The Witcher Podcast - S2: Ep. 8 Recap + Conversation
SPOILERS EVERYWHERE! We are discussing Season 2, episodes 6 and 7. We'll recap the entirety of it and have a great time talking all things Witcher. Those things include things like... the massive reveal at the end, who hired Reince, who were those riders in the desert, and what is with all the monoliths?
Josiah has read the books and played countless hours in Witcher 3 and therefore, may end up merging or confusing what happens in each as it relates to the show. John has read through Blood of Elves and that is the extent of his knowledge of the source material. We're hoping that this makes for some very different outlooks on the show and for a good discussion.

The Suicide Squad - Ep. 75 - Racking Focus Podcast
This week John and Josiah dove headlong into the world of the DCEU with a few reservation but, unlike many in the suicide squad, have ended their mission alive and satisfied. Jame Gunn delivers on the promise of the original Suicide Squad while presenting a master class on action filmmaking rich with character and heart. Gun pokes fun at the DCEU film failings, moves his camera in joyful dance, and permits his actors to do their best work, even in the smallest role.
There is a special bonus segment this episode featuring Steph who watched the film on HBO Max instead at the theatre with the guys.

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins - Ep 73 - Racking Focus Podcast
This week we are entering the world of G.I. Joe + Cobra with what is perhaps the best G.I. Joe film ever made (which isn't saying much), Snake Eyes. It's not a great film, or even a good film for that matter, but it made for an incredible conversation so whether you've seen it or not, we think it's still worth listening to.

Black Widow - Ep. 70 - Racking Focus Podcast
John + Josiah are back in the theaters after nearly two years to watch a Marvel film. It's been a longtime coming and in the meantime there has been some great television and limited series arrive from Marvel on Disney Plus, but they are very excited to be back and watching Black Widow on the big screen. They discuss everything from the pacing, to the plot, to what they found as disjointed with regards to what might be editing and directing. Essentially, they take a big ol' dump on the film for about an hour and then tell you that you should definitely go watch the film because it's worth seeing... not sure how any of this makes sense, but it's just what they do. Enjoy!

Josiah and John have caught up with Loki just as the TVA does and now they join Loki and Silvie as they go "off to see the wizard".... well the Timekeepers. Today's episode was recorded in a SUV on the way to a Phillies game in a massive storm so there is some charming ambience of rain pounding the car along with comments from everyone's favorite third member of the pod, Steph.
Today's episode dives deep into the confusion and the storytelling of marvel's Asgardian miniseries.... enjoy.

LOKI - Lamentis - Ep. 65 - Racking Focus Podcast
Episode 3 of Loki is as much Dr Who as Marvel when Loki and his female variant-self run and run and run to escape the impending apocalypse on the appropriately named moon Lamentis. Trickery, a long Asgardian folk song, some personal revelations and no significant explanation of the physics of time litter this stand alone buddy film on a Kree moon. John and Josiah have serious questions about how this one fits into the storytelling structure of the series.

The Falcon & The Winter Soldier - Truth - Ep. 61 - Racking Focus Podcast
Marvel is giving us one of the best conversations about race and America wrapped up in a slam bang action adventure that has ever graced our screens. The mixture of actions sequence and rich dialogue makes "TRUTH" the best episode from the marvel streaming catalogue. Previous narrative weaknesses which challenged the impact of the show are stripped away by beautifully crafted scenes and iconic visual imagery. Everything is in place for a dynamic final episode but before that finale, we dig deep into the rich thematic ideas in episode 5.

Sound Of Metal - Ep. 60 - Racking Focus Podcast
We're discussing Sound of Metal this week. Spoilers ahead since it's difficult to even talk about this film from a spoiler free perspective. We can't recommend this film enough. It's powerful, moving, emotional, beautiful, hopeful, and heartbreaking all within two hours. Films like these are important because it gives the majority of people an inside look into those who are different from them. This film allow us to see what life is like for those in the deaf community and that their deafness is not something they consider a weakness. We discuss everything from the obvious sound design, to the cinematography, and story structure and characters. You can watch Sound of Metal now on Amazon Prime.

John + Josiah (and Steph) cover everything about this film, from all it's crappiness to all the of the wonderfully amazing things.

Justice League Snyder Cut - REVIEW - Ep. 55 - Racking Focus Podcast
Part Lord of the Rings, part Avengers, part generic brand commercial, the musically enigmatic splash page of a move, Justice League The Snyder Cut blasted onto HBO almost derailing the streaming service. John and Josiah watched the 4 plus hour film and shared their insight into the massive film in a mighty contained aspect ration. Their epic journey through a time of heroes, and another time of heroes and perhaps a post credit time (I mean epilogue) of heroes, was fruitful and exhausting. What does it mean for a director to have freedom to make his own vision? Can DC comics survive on the big screen? How much exposition can you fit in a four hour movie? Well, go watch it, even if you break it into several viewing and then join the conversation.

Frances McDormand and David Strathairn.

Beautifully shot and acted, even with the amateur actors used throughout, Nomadland is worth of recognition and conversation. Join John and Josiah in theirs.
