FTW 200 Pt 3 - Top Gun vs. Point Break vs. Die Hard

  

  

In which our intrepid trio finally finish our Episode 200 Extravaganza and revisit each of our favorite films...with a twist.  

Thank you all who have supported us over these 4 years and 200+ episodes. Your positive energy help us keep doing the show. And a special thank you to the guests who stopped by each of the last 3 episodes to make this even even more special.  

  

  

Top Gun (2:32) DJ Valentine of the Simplistic Reviews Podcast takes his shirt off, hits the volleyball with us a few times, and helps us break down Wally's favorite film of all time.  We discuss how all the male actors in this film resisted certain urges while filming, talk about the amazing soundtrack, and Hermano compares this to a certain other 80's action film to see how it holds up.  Please follow DJ on twitter @TryingtobeaDJV and listen to his shown on iTunes and YouTube.  

  

  

Point Break (40:35)  The biggest supporter and partner of our show, JD Duran, visits us with his boogie board, suntan lotion, and golden locks as we play in the sun and surf to discuss Hermano's favorite (action) film.  JD brings the harsh truth that even Keanu would not want to follow him out of an airplane without a parachute.  Please follow JD on twitter @RealJDDuran or @InSessionFilm and listen to his show on iTunes or any other media catcher.  

  

  

Die Hard (1:36:44)  One of the first loyal listeners to the show, Neil Ramjee, enchants us with his British accent and talks about his revisit of Tim's favorite film of all time, Die Hard.  He judges Alan Rickman's American accent, how valuable some of the side character are, and then dazzles us with a jump off of a skyscraper.  Please follow Neil on twitter @NeilRamjee and let him delight you as well.

First Time Watchers - Episode 200 - Part 2 - The Room

  

  

  

First Time Watchers - Episode 200 - Part 2 - The Room

  

  

In which our intrepid trio continue to celebrate the momentous (okay, mildly mediocre) occasion of our 200th episode.  We do it by once again paying tribute to ourselves in some (ahem) special ways. Listen and enjoy!  

  

Top 5 Movies We Have Reviewed On The Show (1:07) The 3 of us take a look back and pick the 5 episodes that stand out to each of us. We discuss what made them stand out, why we think you should go back and listen to them, and if any of the films we reviewed actually helped navigate our film discourse.  

  

Montage Episodes 100 - 149 (43:35) Michael Denniston of the War Machine vs. War Horse Podcast somehow found time out of his very, very busy schedule to put this montage together.  He brings up what he noticed regarding our chemistry and a certain one of our co-hosts inconsistencies. Please follow Michael on twitter @WarMachineHorse, subscribe to his (soon to be ending) show on iTunes, and listen to him be regular guest on Pop Culture Case Study and True Bromance Podcast.  

  

The Room review (59:13)  Our own regular contributor, the co-host of the Criterion Close Up Podcast, Mark Hurne joins us for this very special occasion. Since Mark is so well versed in film history and the Criterion collection, we thought what better way than to have him on to help break down possibly the best worst film of all time, The Room. Mark helps us figure out what exactly was in the mind of Tommy Wiseau while making this film and points out what it was like to watch this 2 times in a row.  Please follow Mark on twitter @MarkHurne, subscribe to his show on iTunes, and take at look at his reviews on Letterboxd.  

  

Montage Episodes 150-19? (1:50:49)  JD Duran is also a very busy man but was kind enough to dedicate enough time to put together a montage of our most recent episodes. We discuss how awesome it has been to be collaborating for over 2 years and what we have learned from each other. JD does not reveal what "JD" stands for but he does provide insight to what it is like to listen to our show over and over and over again. Please follow JD on twitter @RealJDDuran or @InSessionFilm, subscribe to the InSession Film Podcast on iTunes, and please visit InSessionFilm.com.

First Time Watchers - Episode 200 - Part 1

First Time Watchers - Episode 200 - Part 1

  

In which we celebrate the momentous milestone of reaching 200 episodes without maiming each other. It is a truly glorious day. And we do plenty of back patting. This is Part 1 of a 3 part series in which we celebrate our 200 episodes by providing you with some fun content.  

  

Extended Movie Battle Royal (1:32)  We use Flickchart.com to help narrow down our collective Top 10 lists. We start by refining our collective Top 100, Top 50, and Top 20.  Then we add in our favorite films (Die Hard, Top Gun, and Point Break) to help our lists even further. We finish by revising our Top 20 to make a more definitive Collective Top 10 list.  

  

Montage Episodes 1 - 49 (40:35)  Bubbawheat of the Filmwhys Podcast was kind enough to take on the task of putting together a montage of our younger days.  We discussed what he found out about us when listening to our first 50 episodes and how we compare nowadays.  Please listen to his show on iTunes, follow him on Twitter @Bubbwheat, and click on his website, FlightsTightsAndMovieNights.com.    

  

  

Top 10 Favorite Movies Of All Time (59:28)  We revisit a topic the 3 of entertained during Episode 30. Each of us take a look back and re-list our Top 10 Favorite Movies. Find out what films have displaced our original Top 10 and why we feel that way. What can we say, people change.  

  

  

Montage Episodes 50 - 99 (2:10:41)  Jairo and Barry, two of our original loyal listeners, stop by to reflect on our first 4 years of existence and drop some serious montage business as well. We find out what they think of our chemistry, what keeps them listening, and why they think their show is better than ours. Please listen to their show, The True Bromance Podcast, on iTunes. Find them on twitter @TruBromanceCast or at their website, TrueBromanceFilm.com.
