The Film Thugs Movie Show

Saturday Night

Saturday Night Live (originally called "Saturday Night," due to American Sportscaster Howard Cosell having a show on CBS called Saturday Night Live.) premiered less than a month and a half after Jim was born. By the time it hit it's real stride in the mid 80's, it had become an institution, and Jim's sports team.

Like a sports team, SNL has good and bad seasons. It has super stars and draft busts. It has great seasons with bad episodes, bad seasons with good episodes, bad episodes with good sketches, good episodes with bad sketches.... 

For this show we went to an actual real life movie theater and watched "Saturday Night," a fictionalization of the 90 minutes leading up to the first episode of Saturday Night Live, directed by Jason Reitman (son of comedy LEGEND Ivan).

How well does the movie pull it off?

Do they get the characters right?

What about Gilda?

You're just gonna have to listen to find out.

I Saw The TV Glow

It is rare for a movie to completely defy description.

Yes, we could just talk about what happens in this movie, but... just listen and you'll understand.

Longlegs

We continue our hit streak with some Hitchcock related horror... Oz Perkins, son of Anthony, really knocks it out of the park with this unsettling little gem that is a refreshing entry from a director with an incredible sense of story and tension, and an even better eye.

Kill- A movie with a title too short for my hosting service

Seriously. Episode titles have to be 5 characters. 

 

A title so simple that Podbean doesn't recognize it, but GOD DAMN... does it ever deliver on that name.

Deadpool And Wolverine

Is it possible for a movie to overcome "Marvel Fatigue?"

We have seen it all, and now the hole multi-verse thing... seriously, it's exhausting.

 

So, let us see how the boys handle it.
