Ray Schillaci’s PIC of the week at TheMovieGuys.net for 3/15/18 – The Shape of Water
Marvel’s latest, and nearly greatest.
A bold push forward on a classic story, told with overwhelming style.
Movie Guy Paul Preston looks at some egregious moments of Hollywood overspending from the last year.
Let’s say you’re in Hollywood and you’ve no desire to come up with an original idea. You’re thinking – remake.
“Zootopia”’s main character, Judy Hopps, a small-but-feisty country bunny trying to make it on the big city police force, is an inspiration.
Showcast Episode 139: All Movie Guys are presented and accounted for in The Admiral’s Club for fast and funny previews of “Gods of Egypt”, “Triple 9” and “Eddie the Eagle”. Then actor Sean O’Bryan of “London Has Fallen” joins in with great on-the-set stories everyone doles out their Top Ten Movies of 2015.
The characters tend to go into story a lot, as opposed to being in more in-the-moment conversations, but something drew me in to where the final-hour finale packed a big punch.
Showcast Episode 132: It’s a Happy New Year as The Movie Guys are back in their studio, The Admiral’s Club, for an all-new Movie Showcast with previews of “The Forest” and “The Revenant”, which goes into wide release this week and guest Franklin Leonard joins the show to talk about running The Black List, a yearly aggregated list of the most-liked unproduced screenplays in Hollywood. Then…heated “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” talk ensues.
A spoiler-filled review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, hosted by MC of The Hater Nation, featuring Paul Preston of The Movie Guys and Kevin Bednarz, owner of Comic Logic in Ashburn, VA. It’s smart Star Wars talk and surprisingly civil!
In what’s becoming an excellent tradition, The Movie Guys’ Paul Preston appears on The Hater Nation Show to talk movies during the holidays. In Paul’s talk with host MC, they cover briefly what’s coming in 2016…but mostly talk “Star Wars”…
Showcast Episode 131: The Movie Guys’ Sixth Annual Holiday Special! “Star Wars”…holiday special…this stuff writes itself. It’s a full-on party in The Admiral’s Club as The Movie Guys welcome The Phantom Editor Mike J. Nichols and The Christmas Ewok to give a full once-over to “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and longtime friend of the show Steven Lewis, telling the tale of the Christmas classic, “Concussion”. The Boobé Sisters give expert analysis to the movie “Sisters”, being sisters themselves, and they blow the roof off the joint with their rendition of “Christmas in Hollis”. Plus, a “Daddy’s Home” gift exchange, a “Point Break” re-gift exchange, a “Joy” informercial, a “The Hateful Eight” Tarantino-laced holiday poem and previews of “Anomalisa” and “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip”! Also, The Scrooge Tracker, a look at “Star Wars” marketing and more ending 2015 with a bang.
If “Creed” is launching a new franchise in the boxing genre, it’s doing it the right way – with nostalgia.
Showcast Episode 123: Movie talk meets music talk as special guest director Denny Tedesco joins The Movie Guys in studio to talk about his new documentary “The Wrecking Crew”, chronicling the legendary studio musicians of the ’60s and ’70s. Plus, previews of new movies – “The Last Witch Hunter”, “Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension”, “Jem and the Holograms” and Karen’s head explodes at the thought of Bill Murray in “Rock the Kasbah”.
Showcast Episode 97: Impressionist and stand-up comic Melissa Villaseñor joins The Movie Guys for previews of new films “The Age of Adaline”, “The Water Diviner” & “Little Boy”. Plus, a trailer for the new, all-female “Avengers” movie and rousing rounds of “What Did You See This Week?” and Karen’s Birthdays.
New movie trailers include “Ant-Man”, “Dragon Blade”, “Entourage”, “Fantastic Four”, “Furious 7”, “In the Heart of the Sea”, “Insurgent”, “Jurassic World”, “Magic Mike XXL”, “Marvel’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron”, “Minions”, “Pitch Perfect 2”, “Poltergeist”, “San Andreas”, “Spy”, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, “Ted 2”, “Terminator Genisys”, “Tomorrowland” and “True Story”
Sometimes a story will continue on into a fourth installment (and beyond). That’s where it gets interesting.
