Episode 110: You Boarded This Bus on Purpose

from Xanadu Cinema Pleasure Dome · host Melissa Kaercher and Windy Bowlsby, with guest star Alee Ellingsberg

We have a treat for you this week, dear listeners, as we invite special guest star Alee Ellingsberg of Reel Education: Noir to join us for an episode about ASYLUM FILMS! And by Asylum Films, we mean the production house that has given us things like Atlantic Rim, Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies, and Sharknado. If you would like to drink along, we recommend Santiago Station Cabernet Sauvignon (if you’re a wine person) or Schell’s Oktoberfest (if you’re a beer person). Either way, you’ll be better prepared for the likes of Megashark vs. Giant Octopus. Note: the special gift at the end of this episode is a recording made by Tim Wick and Geoffrey Brown for Big Fun Radio Funtime in April 2014. We’re including it here with permission. (Incidentally, these are the same guys who wrote our theme music.) We’re sorry that the audio isn’t great, but that’s the way it is. If you like it, you can get it directly from Bandcamp for free. Show notes behind the cut! Movies mentioned: Sharknado Atlantic Rim Sherlock Holmes Mega-Shark vs. Giant Octopus Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies (and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds American Warships (and Battleship) Avengers Grimm Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters Street Racer (and Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift) Z Nation People mentioned: Tara Reid Rachel Goldenberg Gareth David-Lloyd Ben Syder Graham Greene Nicolas Cage Links: Mary Poppins Quits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlTO8ggfes8 List of ranked Asylum Films https://letterboxd.com/filmguy450/list/the-asylum-films-ranked/ https://letterboxd.com/slushie_man/list/asylum-movies-ranked/ http://www.ranker.com/list/movies-distributed-by-the-asylum/reference http://www.imdb.com/list/ls000974095/ Raw footage from Mad Max: Fury Road https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WulFLm06jU Borrego Springs, California https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borrego_Springs,_California The post Episode 110: You Boarded This Bus on Purpose appeared first on Xanadu Cinema Pleasure Dome.

Explicit Drunk On Sports Kody From the creators of Drunk on Cinema, comes Drunk on Sports! Join us as we talk about all of the breaking news and updates from the NBA, NFL, and more!  Explicit The Midnight Cinema Screening Unkn  Welcome to The Midnight Cinema Screening.This is basically the place where we hang out after midnight and talk about movies and TV shows that stuck with us… the good, the bad, the weird, and the ones that probably shouldn’t exist but somehow do. I also talk about true crime. If you love horror, cult classics, creepy shows, and the occasional random deep dive into something strange, you’re in the right place. Nothing here is super scripted or overly serious. It’s more like sitting around with friends after a late-night movie, breaking down what worked, what didn’t, and the moments that made you pause the screen and go, “Wait… what just happened?”Some episodes we’ll be reviewing movies.Some we’ll be talking about TV episodes.And sometimes we’ll just go down a rabbit hole about the weird history behind something we watched.So if you like late-night movie talk, dark stories, and conversations that feel a little unfiltered Explicit Strangers on a Podcast Grim Weed & The Conductor Attention passengers. Ride along with two perfect strangers as they criss cross movie land, stopping to explore cinema classics and not-so-classics. Can the strangers find common ground through film and form a friendship? Will their opinions vary as widely as the miles between them or can they meet in the middle and connect over a movie and some laughs? Can they manage to stay on topic? They’re just two average Joe’s from different parts of the U.S. that decided to prove the power of cinema. It’s a good time for all in the movie car as the strangers discuss trivia, history, impacts and influences of films you may or may not have heard of. All aboard! Hosted by: The Conductor and Grim Weed Explicit
