Movie Schmovie

With the Academy Awards in our rearview, the time has come to separate the best from the rest. Join us for the 1st Annual Schmovie Awards … the ones that really matter.

The Oscars have come and gone, and now we get to tell you what we thought of the night’s festivities.

Coming off a brief hiatus, we joined forces to get caught up on what we’ve seen since last episode – some good, some bad, some just exist. Discussions include SAFE HAVEN, THE AMERICAN SCREAM, THE PACT, THE IMPOSTER, WEST OF MEMPHIS, SILVER LININGS PLAY…

A review of Jonathan Levine’s WARM BODIES. Discussions on Tim Burton’s FRANKENWEENIE (2102), Judd Apatow’s THIS IS 40, and Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady’s DETROPIA. 

Reviews of Andres Muschietti’s MAMA, Roman Coppola’s A GLIMPSE INSIDE THE MIND OF CHARLES SWAN III, and Don Coscarelli’s JOHN DIES AT THE END.

Don’t let the runtime scare you away. Like the films discussed in the episode, this list is worth is every minute. It’s an epic Schmovie, even featuring listener call-in favorites!

Reviews of Ruben Fleischer’s GANGSTER SQUAD and Kathryn Bigelow’s ZERO DARK THIRTY. Discussion on the Surprises and Snubs of the 85th Academy Award Nominations. 

2012 may have been the biggest year at the Box Office ever, but we’re betting 2013 has its own greatness in store. Join as we take a look at the first quarter releases of 2013. 

Reviews of Tom Hooper’s LES MISERABLES, Christopher McQuarrie’s JACK REACHER, and Quentin Tarantino’s DJANGO UNCHAINED. 

With the world ending and all, we found it time to share our top “End of the World” movies. And since we can complain all we want, we through in our biggest “Bah Humbug!” moments of 2012.
