Show #11 – Smokin’ Aces and Blood Diamond

Back before you knew it, and we’ve both been to the flicks – myself to see Joe ‘Narc’ Carnahan’s Smokin’ Aces, and Al went off to see Ed Zwick’s – or is it really Leo DiCaprio’s? – Blood Diamond. A nice, quick, sub-30 minutes podcast for the busy moviegoer on the, well, go.

Listen in to hear all about those two flicks, as well as the latest crazy news about the proposed Hobbit movie, Indy IV and more. Show notes below…

SHOW NOTES

00:00 – The King gets us started. We’re looking for a theme tune, can you tell?

00:50 – This is the news… is Sam Raimi potentially going to direct The Hobbit?? And if so, who’s Bruce Campbell going to play?

03:43 – Indiana Jones IV… god save us… will Sean Connery be in it? Are nuns Catholic? Well, depends on the nun, doesn’t it?

05:20 – Darren Aronofsky. Put down the crackpipe and put your hands up against the wall, dude. He’s off on one about Batman, again….

13:13 – I’m up with my thoughts on Smokin’ Aces. To summarise: no, I won’t tell you. Listen to it, dammit.

20:05 – Al tells us all about Blood Diamond, and yes, that is an excuse for him to do the accent again.

28:10 – Wrapping up and saying goodbye.

That’s it for now – come back soon for more podcast fun. In the meantime write us an email, send us a voice message or leave a comment on the site… g’wan, we wanna know you’re out there!

Show #4 – Borat and Bond. Again.

Never let it be said we don’t have original ideas! Except this one time! Yes, we’re back talking about movies that begin with ‘B’ again, but this time – THIS TIME – we’ve seen the movies in question.

Download it already, and listen to our informed opinions on these two movies. No foolin’!

Show notes:

00:00 – Our first rookie mistake. We date the podcast. Yeah, we’re late. Sorry.

01:00 – Guess the 25 Word Review! Listen to both of us mangle the word ‘vigilantism’. You know how much easier it is to type this stuff?

01:40 – This.. is the News. Peter Jackson and the ‘controversy’ over him not directing a potential movie version of The Hobbit.

03:15 – Al compares Return of the King to Return of the Jedi. Ewoks are not mentioned.

07:45 – Rob Cohen needs to fucking burn in hell. Sorry Rob. But you do. A digital Bruce Lee? Puh-lease.

11:05 – Someone famous… has died. Robert Altman in this case.

13:40 – Al gets on the Spider-Man 3 trailer bandwagon… and boy, he ain’t happy.

20:10 – Rocky! Rocky! Apparently, the premise is “ridiculous”.

25:55 – “We’ve seen some films…” Al talks about… wait for it… BORAT!

32:30 – Casino Royale… hum the Bond theme with us, kids.

35:55 – Comparing torture scenes. Is Brosnan harder than Craig?

38:05 – Talking about new movies. Which have now been released. And in some cases, may be leaving cinemas. Yeah, nice move, Stephen.

42:10 – Revealing the 25 Word Review… no cheating now.

43:35 – Smokin’ Aces. Great damn trailer folks.

45:00 – Finished, and almost dead on the money. Thanks for listening!
