AYT #65: Spectacle Fatigue Syndrome

May 22, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Cumberbatch

This week, Joe and Erik dig deep and try to figure out why some huge spectacle films work and some don’t. They disagree on Star Trek Into Darkness and also include Fast & Furious 6 in a chat about Spectacle Fatigue Syndrome. But they can’t help but gush over Noah Baumbach‘s latest film, Frances Ha (look for a special, interview edition with Baumbach later this week) which opens in Portland at Cinema 21 for a weeklong run. Also, don’t forget about the one-night only premiere screening for City Baby also at Cinema 21.

AYT Deathmatch: Spring Breakers vs. Pain & Gain

May 17, 2013 By Leave a Comment

pain-and-gain-poster-1This week, in lieu of a proper episode of the podcast, we present something new called AYT Deathmatch, in which Erik or Joe squares off with a guest on a topic — films, directors, whatever — they violently disagree on, in order to claim a winner, or at least come to some kind of understanding as to where each person is coming from. In this inaugural episode, Erik brings on friend and colleague Oktay Ege Kozak, film critic for Oregon Herald, Bitch Magazine and Beyazperde, to discuss two strangely similar films released in theaters within the same general time frame this year, Harmony Korine‘s Spring Breakers and Michael Bay‘s Pain & Gain. Who will win this Deathmatch? Listen to find out.

May 9, 2013 By 1 Comment

Killing

This week, Joe dodged a bullet and Erik rants about his deep displeasure for Baz Lahmurnn‘s latest glitzy spectacle, The Great Gatsby. Then it’s on to films actually worth seeing and talking about, as we dive in to the very exciting series at Cinema 21, Return to Noir Ville, which starts this friday and runs for two weeks. There’s a ton of great titles to check out, all in wonderful 35 mm. We’re taking next week off, but we’ll still have bonus content for you.

AYT #62: Here’s Mud In Malick’s Eye

April 25, 2013 By 2 Comments

Mud

This week, Joe and Erik have mostly avoided the recent nice weather in their fair city of Portland, choosing instead to see a lot of the exciting releases of late and pack in four reviews in this show. They start with Jeff Nichols‘ new film starring Matthew McConaughey, Mud. Then it’s on to one of Erik’s most anticipated films of the year, Upstream Color (still showing at the Hollywood Theater in Portland for another week before soon going to VOD and DVD next month), a film that oddly shares a tonal and stylistic feel to the latest Terrence Malick film, To the Wonder, opening this Friday at Cinema 21. The last review is a brief one as Erik gives his thoughts on the latest Rob Zombie horror movie, Lords of Salem, which is tied in to another edition of Make It Stop.

AYT #61: Oblivious To The Mysteries Of Room 237

April 18, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Room-237

This week, Joe and Erik talk about what seems to be the first movie of the Summer season, the new Tom Cruise science fiction film Oblivion. They also throw in another addition of Laptop Cinema, in which they each recommend a film available to stream online. Lastly, in the highlight for this week’s show, Erik chats with director Rodney Ascher about his new film, Room 237, a fantastic documentary about the many possible interpretations of Stanley Kubrick‘s The Shining. The film, which we reviewed last year (and Erik chose as his #2 film of 2012), opens on VOD and in Portland (plus other select cities) for a week long run at Cinema 21.
