New Episode of The (title pending) Movie Podcast with Tank and Fogs!!

What’s going on everyone, we’re back with another episode of (title pending) for you!

This time up, Tank and I help you get ready for “Back to School” by recommending some great flicks that revolve around the scholastic experience. Not a top ten list per se, just a discussion of some of our favorite movies set in or about school! “Back to School”, “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”, “Lean on Me”, “The Breakfast Club”… we got you covered, check it out!

It’s a really fun discussion, and serves as a good counterpoint to the lackluster movies that were offered last week. In fact, the box office suffered a bit of a historic slump last weekend. Tank and I will bring you up to speed in the “Box Office Roundup”… and then I’ll tell you where it’s at with the two new releases, “The Words” and “The Cold Light of Day”.

It was a really fun episode, you should definitely check it out! You can download it directly, here, or look for us on iTunes using the keywords (title pending) or Tank and Fogs!

The Words

“The Words” tells the story of a successful old writer telling the story of a struggling young writer who steals an old story from an old writer who eventually catches on and confronts him by telling his story.

As you can tell, there’s a lot of storytelling going on.

It’s not hard to keep track of, but it does create too many unnecessary layers to work through surrounding the primary story. It waters down the emotional weight, and creates unfortunate periods of time that the audience has to sit through, hoping to get back to what the movie should really be all about.

The 2012 Fall Movie Preview – Part I

With this weekend’s release of “The Expendables 2” and “ParaNorman”, the summer movie season is pretty much over. One weekend remains in August, and those movies wont have much room to run before school is back in session.

Nope, the season of the big blockbuster is behind us. It’s time to look ahead to the fall.

Not to despair, though, the fall brings sharp movies for the thinking movie fan. Movies which may have more selective box office appeal, but which may be some of the best movies all year.

So click through to take a look at the first part of this year’s fall preview. Today we’ll look at the last week of August, plus September, and then we’ll come back tomorrow with October and the first week of November. Together they’ll take us right up to the start of the Holiday movie season, and the November 9th release of Skyfall!
