Considering the Cinema Ep. 090: Giving Up Watching a Movie in Order to Talk About Movies

Episode 090 Considering the Cinema The Weekly Watchlist your hosts Jason Pyles, Mack Robins, and Dave Becker Mack is the monster at the beginning of this episode. What do 1907 Japanese silent films, killer bears, moonshine runners, Pixar superheroes, and beauty pageants have in common? Somehow… this episode. Join hosts Jason Pyles, Mack Robins, and Dave Becker for another round of Mini Reviews and movie mayhem as they discuss everything from Grizzly Man and The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters to The Incredibles, Little Miss Sunshine, Moonrunners, and Out of the Furnace. Note: This episode was recorded on _____________. THE WEEKLY WATCHLIST is the type of episode where we simply talk about whatever we've been watching lately from our own, personal watchlists. Here's how it works: Jay, Mack and Dave have zero "movie-watching homework." We are completely free each week to watch whatever we want from any era, year, genre, country, etc! We can finally go through our own personal watchlists and catch up with the films we've been meaning to see. So, every week will be vastly different. Let us know what you think of this format. Jay of the Dead also hosts a WEEKLY HORROR MOVIE PODCAST with Mister Watson at Horror Movie Weekly.com. And of course, every Horror fan should check out Jay of the Dead's New Horror Movies, The Gold Standard of Horror Movie Podcasts.
