So, take a break from all of that irresponsible sex, make sure all of your campers aren't drowning in Crystal Lake and pull on your fisherman's sweater because you'll no longer be required to watch all of these movies in order to get your hunting season machete license. Bill insisted this not be referred to as comprehensive history but still Chad did all the viewing for you, your fraidy cats, and almost answers all of these questions.

There's a dearth of genuine people in Hollywood; Canadian actor-comedian John Candy was surely one of them. Larger than life on the screen, Candy passed away from a heart attack in 1994. But in his formidalbe wake he left a library of quality movies and television, so in this episode Bill and Chad remember such classics as Uncle Buck, Summer Rental, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, and others.
Show Notes:
03:39 - Uncle Buck.
06:03 - The language of real life.
07:08 - By way of comparison: Uncle Buck vs. Parenthood.
11:38 - Really hits home watching the movie after having kids.
13:56 - Losing John Candy was like losing a close friend.
14:53 - Johnny LaRue
16:04 - The toothpick guy.
18:30 - One problem with Uncle Buck.
19:25 - Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
21:37 - YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!
24:43 - Summer Rental.
30:49 - Stripes.
36:13 - The Great Outdoors. (I meant to say spin cycle, not rinse cycle - Bill)
43:13 - Only the Lonely + the unbearable 'acting' of Ally Sheedy.
46:19 - By way of comparison: Molly Ringwald.
49:55 - The Canadian Conspiracy.
Thanks for listening!

People are asking, "Why make a Han Solo prequel movie?" Disney answers, "Where is the money, Lebowski?" So here we are reviewing a movie that doesn't really have a reason for existing. Or maybe, it exists so that we can review it! So we did that.
Show Notes:
05:05 - Solo's so-low box office performance.
07:37 - So much empty fan service.
08:18 - There's no reason for this movie to exist.
10:11 - They blew their chance to really inform the character of Han Solo.
15:19 - The fabeled Kessel Run.
19:15 - When Han met Chewie.
22:55 - The weird Lando moment.
27:44 - Is this the Disneyfied Star Wars we all feared?
28:38 - Donald Glover wasn't that great, but Alden Ehrenreich was pretty good!
31:34 - Mother of Drag-ons.
33:59 - Is Cersei from Game of Thrones a blonde or red-head?
36:22 - Trump Blonde, now in the hair-colour aisle.
37:06 - Shitty cinematography.
38:10 - Han definitely shoots first.
39:09 - Lando needs a smaller card hider.
40:07 - Darth Maul and his baby legs.
47:46 - Han was Han for a brief, shining moment.
49:15 - Final verdict.
Thanks for listening!

Ep. 39 - The Critics Were Wrong! A 'Bright' Review

Please consider donating at our Patreon page and add your voice to those who want more funny and interesting content like this on PodBean - https://patreon.com/HunterWick
Movie critics are people (until A.I. takes over), and sometimes people make terrible mistakes... like atomic weaponry, President Donald Trump, and now the movie reviews for Bright, starring Will Smith and Joel Edgerton as a human and orc cop team out to save the world from devious, magical elves. David Ayers' alternate world buddy-cop film drew heavy fire from critics, but is it deserved? Chad and Bill dive deep to illuminate you on this Netflix original movie. The usual caveat: we give our typical very thorough look at the film and its meanings, so SPOILER ALERT!
Show Notes:
01:23 - Did we mention that critics suck?
06:02 - The Suicide Squad effect.
07:58 - More great worldbuilding.
11:51 - The story of Bright.
14:53 - Will Smith is very Will Smith-ish.
18:04 - A character named 'Serling'.
19:45 - A very ethereal Noomi Rapace.
21:50 - The Ward vs. his Co-Workers scene.
29:53 - The unused wife.
31:55 - Funny scene: Jakoby spills the beans.
35:18 - True Detective is Putin's favourite show.
38:15 - David Ayers has redeemed himself.
41:14 - Hoping for more stories in this world.
43:18 - Slight digression: Heath Ledger as The Joker.

So, have you ever finished watching a sci-fi or fantasy movie and felt you just didn't like that film, but you're not sure why? It could be that the filmmakers didn't put enough thought and effort into good worldbuilding. In this episode of Nerdstalking, we ponder what worldbuidling means, and look at some examples of it in action, good and bad.

This is part 2 of our review of Steven Spielberg's nostalgia-porn movie Ready Player One. In it we lament the lack of any real danger or even drama in the film, as well as laugh at its lack of knowledge of the actual nature of online gaming, and discuss how the changing nature of copyright and IP management these days has made this film easier to make. All this, and much more in the last of our two-parter on Ready Player One. Plus, it's dangerous to go alone, so take this warning along with you as you listen to this episode: we take a deep dive into the movie and explore many plot points, so be pepared for MANY SPOILERS!

Ready Player One is so stuffed with pop-culture references, and our derision so strong for this hollow exercise, we can't even fit our review into one Nerdstalking episode! Log in and listen to Part. 1 of our review as we slag director Steven Spielberg for not understanding video games, knock the world-building of the film as being as shaky as the Stacks, and lament about the lack of heart in the film, among other complaints. And you might even find a couple of positive comments in here too; consider them the Easter eggs you have to search for. As usual here at Nerdstalking, we give the movie a thorough going over and dive deep into what it is and what it means, so also be on the search for MANY, MANY SPOILERS!

What happens if you take TRON, mix it with The Last Starfighter, and throw in a pinch of references to every SF movie and video game of the last 30 years or so? You get Steven Spielberg's latest flick Ready Player One, based on Ernest Cline's love-letter-to-videogames novel of the same name. We anticipate the release of the film with all the giddy glee of kids waiting in line for Back to the Future in 1985. Plus we celebrate Sam Rockwell's 2018 Oscar win with a retrospective of his career, and take a look at Steven Soderbergh's guerilla feature filmmaking iPhone experiment Unsane.

Try not to get scratched as you listen! As usual, we examine lots of details of the movie to cover all the bases with our assessment of it, so THERE BE SPOILERS!

Where we celebrate (and vilify) the highs (and lows) of 2016. We update previous Nerdstalking topics such as Batman v Superman, The Twilight Zone, and Stephen King, and pick at the scabs left by the many celebrity deaths of 2016 including Carrie Fisher. To top things off, we put the "Death" in "Death Star" with a spoiler-filled examination of the tale of how the plans of that technological terror were stolen, in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
