- 99 - #71 - MUPPETS FROM SPACE (1999) - A Guilty Pleasure!
In this episode, I revisit and explore the story of "Muppets From Space," from 1999, the first Muppets Movie to make the most of the digital age of cinema, where Gonzo embarks on a quest to discover his extra-terrestrial roots, all whilst dressed in a tin foil hat and jamming down to one of teh funkiest soundtracks of a Muppets film to date!
The movie was hit and miss with fans, but for me, it was always one of my guilty pleasures, mainly I think because the randomness of Gonzo was always one of my favourite characters of the Muppets... but do we need a Gonzo origin story, or does that destroy his ambiguous mythos?
I also take a deep dive into the rich history of Jim Henson and the Muppets, from their humble beginnings to their status as beloved cultural icons, and uncover the magic and some of the names behind the Muppets' enduring legacy.
So join Gonzo, Kermit, Fozzy Bear, Rizzo the Rat, Miss Piggy, Pepe the Prawn and a host of other fuzzy creatures and celebrity cameos from Jeffery Tambor to Andy MacDowell, that make up his jam-packed crazy sci-fi Muppets comedy!

Welcome back, movie enthusiasts, to another thrilling episode of WN Movie Talk, where we dive deep into the world of cinema. Today I embark on an exhilarating adventure as I explore two cinematic masterpieces: Henri-Georges Clouzot's 1953 classic Wages of Fear and its gripping 1970's counterpart, Sorcerer, directed by Exorcist director William Friedkin two films based on the novel Le Salaire de la peur, examining how each film approaches similar themes and plot points while maintaining its own distinct identity.
"Wages of Fear." A groundbreaking film of its era, immerses us in the treacherous world of four desperate men tasked with transporting nitro-glycerine across perilous terrain. We delve into the tense atmosphere, the intricate character dynamics, and the raw intensity that make this film a timeless masterpiece.
But our journey doesn't stop there. We shift gears to explore William Friedkin's 1977 remake, "Sorcerer." starring Roy Schieder.
A bold reinterpretation of Clouzot's original, "Sorcerer" thrusts us into a world of political unrest and moral ambiguity as four men from different walks of life are brought together by fate to undertake a harrowing mission. We analyze Friedkin's stylistic choices, the thematic layers woven throughout the narrative, and the ways in which "Sorcerer" both honours its predecessor and carves its own path.

Sat, 09 Dec 2023 - 39min - 89 - MR SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON / THE SHOP AROUND HE CORNER / YOU'VE GOT MAIL / BEWITCHED
A special episode of Films that I Own That I Haven't Watched Yet, recorded shortly after Christmas last year (so only took me the best part of a year to edit and upload!) Four films, all linking from one to the next - so not chosen at random.
The first Mr Smith Goes To Washington (1939) - from director Frank Capra and starring James Stewart (who would later work together on Its A Wonderful Life), Jean Arthur and Claude Rains - a political comedy drama in which Stewart plays a newly appointed Senator who is battling a corrupt political system.
Then, I watch and review the festive romantic comedy The Shop Around The Corner (1940) - another James Stewart movie, a romantic comedy directed by Ernst Lubitsch in which Stewart plays alongside Margaret Sullivan as two employees working in a leathergoods shop, who dispite loathing each otrher in person are actually falling in love via anonymous letters.
Film 3 is You've Got Mail. (1998) which sees Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks star in a Nora Ephron retelling of the Shop Around the Corner, for the digital age, as Meg Ryan plays a small book shop owner who is put out of business by the book store chain owner, Hanks, but again, via anonymous emails they strike up a loving relationship
Finally, film 4 is Nora Ephron's whimsical remake of the classic TV Series Bewtitched, in which Will Farrell plays a fading TV star trying to boost his career by relaunching a classic TV show (Bewtitched) by casting unknown actress (and actual witch) played by Nicole Kidman.

Thu, 16 Nov 2023 - 31min - 88 - #66 - BATMAN (1989)
In 1989, Tim Burton bought a new darker version of the Bob Kane creation Batman to life. The DC comic superhero was portrayed by comedy star Michael Keaton, and the Joker was none other than the manic Jack Nicholson. Bat Mania swept across the planet, and ten year old me was completely obsessed.
Fast forward ten years, I had a youtube channel doing film reviews, revisited the film and wasn't at all impressed (you can hear that review in this weeks episode too).
Skip on another ten years or so, and here I am, having just picked p the Bluray Batman Quadrilogy Boxset at a charity shop for £2.50, and I thought I would sit through again. Has my opinion changed? Will I make it through all four films? Find out now, in another episode of WN MOVIE TALK PODCAST!

Sun, 20 Aug 2023 - 59min - 87 - #65 - Indy V - My 10 pence worth! INDIANA JONES & THE DIAL OF DESTINY (2023)
This week is a rare review of a modern release - something I usually leave for the rest of the worlds Youtube / podcast film buffs, so as not to add to an over saturated market... but this time, after umming and arring for the past few weeks as to whether or not I should go and watch the latest installment in the Indiana Jones series, Indiana JOnes and the Dial Of Destiny, and in the end I did, and soI felt I had to have a say.
I briefly discuss the other movies in the series, mostly The Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls, although there is a video review up on the WN MOVIE TALK Youtube channel at present of the original trilogy as taken from an old YouTube channel, and then in the final moments of the pod I will rank the Indiana Jones films too, in case you're interested in my humble opinion.

Mon, 17 Jul 2023 - 33min - 86 - #64 - COCOON (1985) / COCOON RETURNS (1988)
Trev was put up with a bad back over the weekend, and decided that it was a great time to revisit the 80's Ron Howard sci-fi fantasy Cocoon (1985), a Spielberg-esque film of wonder and sentiment, with lots of laughs along the way and great performances from its senior cast of Hollywood legends, past their sell-by date but still going strong. Actors such as Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Don Ameche, Jack Gilford, Wilford Brimley, and supported by a younger cast including Brian Dennehy and Steve Guttenberg.
When a trio of elderly residents from a residential home break into the swimming pool of an abandoned house, they stumble across a group of alien cocoons, and the water they swim in has been filled with an exilir-like life source to preserve the ancient embrio's.Soon, the three elderly men have a new zest for life as the life source begins to work its magic.

From Mike Judge (King of the Hill, Office Space) Beavis and Butthead follows those two iconic stars of MTV on a hapless feature-lengthed episode, as a quest for TV becomes an all out action-fuelled plot featuring the voices of none-other than Bruce Willis and Demi Moore as the two villains of the film.

Trev is joined once again by Stan as they discuss the sequel to Paul Verhoven's ultra violent sci-fi thriller Robocop, Paul Verhove's Robocop 2, starring Peter Weller, Nancy Allen and directed by Irvin Kershner. Detroit is still spiralling out of control, despite the shady OCP's back-handed methods of trying to take it over to pave the way for the construction of Delta City! When they decide to create a second Roocop programme, is using the king pin of the city's growing Nuke problem the best choice to man it? Seems like he is... for some reason!

Before Lord Of The Rings, which in my mind is the ultimate trilogy, Kiwi directorPeter Jacksonhad made some pretty raw and grotesque low budget movies, showcasing the ingenuity of his film making talent, and creating some of the most extreme yet effective gore effects to splatter the celluloid!

Meet The Feebles (1989) takes a 'What if' approch to the Muppets, as we see Hippos, Seals, Cats, Rabbits, and much more covorting, taking drugs, vomiting, binge eating and being as disgusting and promiscuous as you could dare to imagine.
And Brain Dead (1992) (aka Dead Alive in North America) a hilarious zombie movie which takes the genre up a notch and has been labelled as possibly the most goriest film ever.

Nath's choice this week is Bad Words, the 2013 comedy starring and directed by wholesome actor Jason Bateman as the offensive Guy Trilby, a role that clearly is trying to stick another feather in his proverbial acting cap.
Trilby is a grown man who has found a loop hole in the National Spelling Bee competitions designed for intellectual children, and with a hidden agenda he exploits this in order to walk away with the prize money and degrade the stability of the competition.Hosted on Acast.

After we get through a bucket load of light-hearted listeners 80's film suggestions carried over from last weeks episode, the conversation turns dark as we explore this months bizarre film title, Bad Boy Bubby.
Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wnmovietalk)
Incest, oppression, religious zealots, physical and mental abuse, childhood trauma, mental and physical handycaps - the Australians sure know how to make a comedy!
Bubby (Nicholas Hope) is a child in the body of a 35year old man - he has lived in a hovel with his mum for his entire life, never seeing the outside world, or any other living soul. Through her oppressive parenting, he has learnt nothing of value to life, has been her in house lover, and a toy to manipulate and control. But when his father turns up unexpectantly, a series of events will soon lead to Bubby's first steps into the real world.
Fancy checking out the film yourself - here's a link - https://amzn.to/3DgjJ5M
What used to be viewed for a bit of laddish bravado among our friendship group as being one of those weird films you cannot un-see, undoubtedly Bad Boy Bubby got shelved... for some 20 years may we add. It is difficult viewing and until we started this podcast we hadn't really considered re-watching it, but has this tale of tortured man-child Bubby let loose on society aged well, is it any good?Hosted on Acast.

This week its time for another obscure or lesser known film - and we thought we would change the pace a little and instead of going for a completely random or even awful movie like we have in the past, we felt that this lesser known gem of a movie would be ideal viewing.
Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wnmovietalk)
The hilarious and cringeworthy Nuts In May (1976) first screened on the BBC in the 70's as a part of their play for the day series and follows anally retentive control freak Keith Pratt (Sloman) and his timid wife Candice-Marie (Steadman) as they take a relaxing camping holiday in Dorset. But soon Keith's sanity is put to teh test by his fellow campers.
One of the early films from British filmmaker Mike Leigh, director of Secrets and Lies, Happy Go Lucky and Vera Drake, this has always stood out as a favourite in our household.

Nath chose tonight's film, Isle Of Dogs and it happens to be our first animation discussed, also our first Wes Anderson (yet our 3rd title to feature Scarlett Johansson).

After evil dictator Joseph Stalin (Adrain McLoughlin) dies, he leaves behind a power vacuum that his closest allies are quick to fill.
