Are You Movie Mad?

Andrew announces a new mini-series in the Corona-infested world of action, family and turning enemies into friends. Will he discover how the virus spread? What happened to John Cena? Why drop almost every letter in the titles for the 9th (or 10th) movie? Begun, the adventure has.

What other podcast can go from 2019 to 1951 in such a smooth move? Johnny’s not seen maybe any Katherine Hepburn picture before, and Andrew is forced to listen to Billie Eilish for the first time. Johnny then delves into time travel more as he explains the manifestations of DC’s TV shows.

Ryan Rodney Reynolds and the fridge seller-turned stand-up Jeremy “Plugs” Piven join on Joe Carnahan’s contract killer It’s A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, the final episode in 18-rated month. Andrew reminisces about college, Johnny satisfies himself with his music collection.

Do You See? Andrew leads the command towards the big ship Event Horizon, where everything is fine and dandy and nothing is 18-rated space horror. Johnny is prepared for anything when thinking about 90s special effects, and how mainstream extreme cinema evolved in the decades since.

It’s time to head to East London and discuss Viggo Mortensen’s naked bathfighting, that time they gave an Oscar to a film about a pizza-folding man, and Naomi Watts’ dramatic scenes in small chain restaurants of England. For a little Valentine’s Day special Andrew and Johnny share their passions, and mostly prepare for Sonic The Hedgehog.

After covering every Rambo movie years ago, it was destined that Stallone would return once more to the podcast, and after poisoning Andrew he takes co-hosting duties to share with Johnny the insanity of his latest angry-old-man-murders-an-ethnic-group movie.

Rounding off Bad Boys month with a Martin Lawrence action comedy vehicle, Andrew pines for the days of economy in storytelling, and Johnny remembers the glories of iSpy, a film nobody had talked about since the day it premiered.

Hitting the mark at the end of the trilogy, Johnny cannot understand why he signed up to seeing all three, and Andrew is hesitant about a Bay-less installment, and what the legacy of Joe Carnahan will be to the third film.

Coming in to the 21st century and a vulgar auterist creation lambasted and weirdly lauded, Johnny finds himself questioning the franchise as a whole, and specifically the purpose of action cinema in an incomprehensible manner. Andrew, meanwhile, attempts to deconstruct, to find meaning, in the bayhem unleashed.

What you gonna do? We’re gonna watch Martin Lawrence and Will Smith, IN THAT ORDER, debut Michael Bay to the world, as the third film prepares to release. Will the cinema auterism of Bay be seen? Will Will Smith like Miami? Will Tea Leoni in black hair never not look like Kat Slater?

Andrew and Johnny reminisce on the year of podcasts, discuss life, love, and then offer their top 10 films from the past decade.

Johnny’s most anticipated film of Winter becomes Andrew’s most feared trip to the cinema. Tom Hooper’s adaptation of the acclaimed (?) musical where James Corden plays a cat, and the world must be destroyed. Some Star Wars talk, if you are avoiding such.

Tis the season to be 3D, fa-la-la-la-la la-la la-la! Andrew discusses the importance of Wafflebot, and 3D cinema, in the Christmas experience and Johnny finishes off his run of Harold & Kumar adventures in the most festive way possible.

The continuing adventures of the View Askewniverse come into shape as Andrew and Johnny head to a screening of the latest Kevin Smith movie, with different perspectives and different opinions. Will their friendship survive this episode?

Johnny is about to head deep into the state as he examines the politically charged thriller that is Harold & Kumar’s second movie. Andrew, meanwhile, is looking for things to talk about that don’t involve the film in question. What a duo!

Andrew takes Johnny on a journey through the gross-out stoner landscape of the early 00s, and the duo explore burgers, cheetahs, character actors and the modern career of John Cho in the first of an out-there trilogy of episodes.

A storm is brewing, and cultures clash, as Andrew and Johnny explore Judaism, Richard Kindness and the power of Michael Stuhlbarg, rounding off CoeNovember and exploring the power of the cycle, the visions of the Coens and the potency of Jefferson Airplane.

Someone is always listening, watching, waiting, as CoeNovember continues with an underrated comedy that Andrew adores, and Johnny is about to witness for the first time round. Will they become spies too? Or will a swing in the sex chair finish them off?

Folk music, fables and fancy leading men, it’s time for the Dapper Dan men to go down to the South and experience some form of… odyssey. In only the way the Coen Brothers could

Andrew and Johnny haven’t seen one-another for over a month, so they catch up about film festivals, Jokers, Fords Vs. Ferraris and Uncut Gemses. Coenovember begins with an Irish slice of whiskey gangland pizza pie.
