Episode 36: The #Podcast - From Dreamy "Nocturna" to "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (And the Art of Letterboxd Stalking).
ThePoeticCritic
and Cool Movies Darth take you on a journey ranging from the Criterion
Channel's Saturday Matinees for the smart kids to the directors with
obsessions of dreamlike environments. The Spanish animated gem
"Nocturna" and Wes Craven's "A Nightmare on Elm St" serve as bookends to
this narrative that does quite a bit of juxtaposition of features like
"The Never Ending Story" and "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas".
NinetyForChill tries to capture the motivation behind Terry Gillian's
filmography in about 90 minutes.
This episode was recorded the day after my chat about "Commando" with Michael Dubois,
so I thought it would be nice and brief. My plan was to focus solely on
the two titles that I am advertising. But, when you think you have the
answers, TPC goes and changes the question. And she says sitting through
WrestleMania at Robertson Memorial Field House gained her nothing. I
think she maybe bitter that was how her seventh birthday was spent.
It
is kind of appropriate for this 90-minute podcast to shape up the
way it did. "Nocturna" has been recently added to the Criterion
Channel's Matinees series. This inspired her to talk about some of the
recent classics she had seen like "Mark of Zorro" and Charlie Chaplin's
"Pilgrim". With "Nocturna" being set in a dream world, it would
eventually culminate in a transition to the horror aspects. The path
just happened to include opportunities to juxtapose the experimental
children features like the many adaptations of "The Bluebird" with Terry
Gilliam's Kubrickian "dream trilogy".
Of
course, we offer more of a breakdown in the concepts that Disney
animation "fans" are pushing. I compare those people to the DCEU
supporters. It is a fair comparison since I am a man calling for more
love to be provided to the Snyder-verse. We also take a stand about
features that we gave a pass to being kids of the 1980s, but realize
that the reassessments of Rufio are uncalled for. The same goes to the
Sanderson sisters.
If anything needs reassessing, we determine it is the works of David Lynch and 1993's "Super Mario Bros".
Next week, the plan is to speak to Andras "Ta2squid" Bodolai. The "Ta2suid Podcast"
offers great free-form conversations about horror movies, tattoos, metal music, and getting
inside the minds of other podcast host. I am kind of worried because
there is a sense where it may become "Who is interviewing who?" It
should be fun, provided that I do not screw up the time zone differences
again.
I
would not mind being a couples week ahead when it comes to content, so I
would love to hear from you with ideas on what to chat about. Frankly,
it would be honor to host you and find out about why you offered your
incite. Send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com with
a movie, theme, director, or actor. If you promise to center the topic
around movies between 74 and 99 minutes, audio gold should be the
product.
If you need some suggestions, movies like "Fear of a Black Hat", "UHF" and "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" can
make for a great theme. ThePoeticCritic knew that Robert Downey Sr.'s
satirical masterpiece, "Putney Swope" fits the pod's time restraints.
There are also Tim Burton's early classics "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" and
"Beetlejuice". Or we could just focus on movies Danny Elfman scored.
I
have been asking for weeks for assistance in composing an episode
dedicated to vampire features like "The Lost Boys" trilogy, "Near Dark",
and the "Underworld" movies. Here is to hoping that this bunch of
critiques will stir up some inspiration in my audience to step up and
hold off on the garlic. If this is a topic you up for discussing, feel free to send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com. All I need is a half hour on Zoom to get this done.
I
hope I am impressing or at the very least amusing you with this podcast
and I am open to any and all criticism. My biggest want is more guests
and more suggestions on what to chat about (@catbusruss, russthebus07@gmail.com@coolmoviesdarth). If we can get 3 hours out of "Little Nicky", the possibilities are endless. Thanks for visiting.
After
WrestleMania Backlash, I will tell you that we need to take zombie pro
wrestling back. My suggestion is that we finally get my low-budget
zombie movie, "Main Event of the Dead" off the ground. The script lacks a
lumberjack match, so you know it has got to be better than the "Army of
the Dead" advertisement. Ask for a treatment or give me suggestions on
how to get it to a crowd-sourcing stage with an email to russthebus07@gmail.com.
