We’re sharpening our knives this week for our long-anticipated review of the latest Scream film, or Scream 5 unofficially. This is the first of the franchise to not be directed by Wes Craven, as we instead of the filmmakers behind Ready or Not. Is this meta slasher whodunnit as much of a scream? And afterward, we discuss George Clooney’s latest directorial effort, The Tender Bar, which is based on the memoir by J.R. Moehringer and stars Ben Affleck, Tye Sheridan, and Lily Rabe. Show Notes:

| 25 Feb 2025 | Nickel Boys – Film Review | 00:36:09 | |
In this week’s episode, Jon Negroni and Will Ashton take a deep dive into Nickel Boys, the latest film from director RaMell Ross (Hale County This Morning, This Evening). An adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, the film follows two Black teenagers trapped in the harrowing realities of Nickel Academy, a reform school in 1960s Florida that crushes hope as efficiently as it enforces silence. With Ethan Herisse and Brandon Wilson leading the cast and a uniquely immersive first-person perspective, Nickel Boys has drawn a lot of critical acclaim, but does it earn its accolades? Jon and Will unpack the film’s daring cinematography, its unconventional narrative structure, and Ross’s refusal to hold the audience’s hand. They debate the film’s Oscar prospects, its underwhelming box office reception, and why its use of silence might be its most powerful weapon. Plus, how does Nickel Boys fit into the tradition of documentary filmmakers transitioning into narrative storytelling? And yes, Will finds a way to compare it to The Tree of Life, because of course he does. Links:

| 02 Aug 2023 | Oppenheimer | 00:55:59 | |
Special guest Parth Sanghvi joins us for the first time ever to review Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan's follow-up to 2020's Tenet, which for sure came out under normal circumstances. We open the show, however, with a quick visit from a couple old friends and Nolan super-fans before diving into the discussion (00:04:00) and finishing out with the Rotten Tomatoes Game. Oppenheimer was also written by Nolan and is based on the 2005 biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer, American Prometheus, by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin. The ensemble cast is quite massive, but we'll let you know a few of the heavy hitters: Cillian Murphy (as Oppenheimer himself), Robert Downey Jr., Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Florence Pugh, Josh Hartnett, Casey Affleck, Rami Malek, Kenneth Branagh, and many more. Oppenheimer opened nationwide on July 21 through Universal Pictures and has a 180-minute runtime. Our intro music this week is “Which One?” by Glimlip & .multibeat. Links:

What kind of Cinemaholic are you? While Jon Negroni is out of the country, Will Ashton and special guest Cory Woodroof hold down the fort, so to speak, and discuss Alex Garland's explosive new film, Civil War. A24's most expensive film to date, and likely to be one of their highest grossers to boot, the war drama stars Kirsten Dunst, Cailee Spaney, Wagner Moura, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Nick Offerman, and Jesse Plemons, and it has had everyone talking since it blew into theaters on April 12. Find out what the Will Forces and The Republic of Cory have to say about this election year blockbuster. Our intro music this week is “Tarantino Margarita” by l’eupe. Links:

Special guest Michael Overhulse is down for the count this week in our double review of The Last Voyage of the Demeter and Talk to Me, two horror movies that the boys claim Jon is too scared to watch. Guess they just need a thrill pill. Show Notes

| 23 Dec 2018 | Aquaman, Bumblebee, They Shall Not Grow Old, Mary Queen of Scots | 01:17:16 | |
It’s a surf and turf episode! First, we’re diving into the latest DC Comics superhero flick Aquaman. Plus, Hailee Steinfeld and John Cena star in Bumblebee, the latest Transformers film. But this one’s a bit different because it’s a prequel set in the 80s and it’s all about the titular, yellow lovebug. Later in the show, you’ll hear us review several other films, including a new WWI documentary from Peter Jackson titled They Shall Not Grow Old. And we also have a better-late-than-never review of the period drama Mary Queen of Scots starring Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie. Ep. 96 Show Notes:

| 23 Jan 2025 | Interview – Harrison Xu and Ivan Leung talk 'Extremely Unique Dynamic' | 00:55:35 | |
Today on Cinemaholics, we’re joined by two hilarious and incredibly talented filmmakers/actors, Harrison Xu and Ivan Leung, to talk about their new indie film, Extremely Unique Dynamic. This queer Asian meta stoner coming-of-age dramedy takes storytelling to a whole new level—it’s a movie about two guys making a movie about two guys making a movie. Yes, it’s as wonderfully chaotic as it sounds. Extremely Unique Dynamic has been making waves, playing at over 25 film festivals and breaking box office records during its LA theatrical run. In this episode, Harrison and Ivan share the wild journey of creating a deeply personal, yet entirely universal story that subverts stoner comedy tropes while addressing themes of representation, identity, and authenticity. We dive into everything—how they infused the film with their real-life personalities, their unexpected success at festivals, and even a bit of party bus pole-dancing backstory. Along the way, we also discuss pop-punk soundtracks, karaoke go-tos, and what they hope this movie will mean 50 years from now. Plus, we get into some lighter moments, including their favorite reality TV shows, nostalgic movie picks, and the unexpected challenges of doing Q&As. Whether you’re a fan of stoner comedies, indie filmmaking, or unique dynamics (see what we did there?), this is an episode you won’t want to miss. Catch Extremely Unique Dynamics at upcoming screenings in LA, San Francisco, New York, and even Vancouver, with VOD release just around the corner. Links:

| 31 Dec 2018 | Vice, Bird Box, On the Basis of Sex | 01:39:15 | |
Finally, former Vice President and War on Terror cheerleader Dick Cheney has gotten his own comedic biographical film from The Big Short director Adam McKay in Vice. Plus, Netflix has dropped their latest holiday blockbuster, Bird Box, which stars Sandra Bullock along with a huge, talented cast of recognizable faces, but does is this survival thriller worth seeing? Later in the show, you'll hear Jon's review of Barry Jenkins’s latest film If Beale Street Could Talk, which has finally whispered its way into limited release. And we close out the show with Will Ashton’s thoughts on the new Ruth Bader Ginsburg biographical film On the Basis of Sex, starring Felicity Jones and Armie Hammer.

Special guest Clint Worthington—Founder/EIC of The Spool and host of the Travolta/Cage podcast—joins us for the first time, and trust us, we need a Nick Cage expert for this episode. That's right, we're reviewing The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, which surprisingly isn't the Will Ashton biopic stuck in development hell. No, this is a high-concept meta comedy action movie starring Nicolas Cage as a fictionalized version of himself(?), as he gets roped into a crime caper alongside Pedro Pascal. Later in the show we also review The Bad Guys, the first original DreamWorks Animation movie to hit theaters since (checks notes) Abominable! Show Notes:

Let's talk about X. And Deep Water! Two movies that are doing it. One is an original 70s-based slasher horror in theaters from director Ti West starring Mia Goth and Jenna Ortega. The other is a psychological erotic thriller on Hulu from director Adrian Lyne starring Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas. Don't worry, this episode of Cinemaholics gets more, ahem, heated than that movie. We also finish out the show with a fun breakdown of the movies we (mostly Will) saw at SXSW 2022. Show Notes:

| 31 Dec 2020 | Brazil (1985), Edward Scissorhands (1990) | 02:08:59 | |
To officially conclude this year's Extra Milestone lineup, Jon Negroni and Will Ashton of the Cinemaholics podcast joined forces with me one last time to discuss two distinct (and oddly holiday-centric) auteur-driven classics. We start our conversation by digging through the muck of Terry Gilliam's Brazil, a bureaucratic odyssey of madness often regarded as one of the greatest films of all time. After that, we jump forward to Edward Scissorhands, an intensely personal story from Tim Burton that is both lighthearted and melancholy, and which has affected us all at one point or another. SHOW NOTES:
HOSTED BY: Sam Noland, Jon Negroni, and Will Ashton MUSIC IN THIS EPISODE: "Office Theme" from Brazil composed by Michael Kamen and based off Ary Barroso's "Aquarela do Brasil," music from Edward Scissorhands composed by Danny Elfman

Our discussion has plenty of surprises and hot takes (mostly from Jason), and we hope you enjoy listening! Hosted by Sam Noland, Jason Read, and Anthony Battaglia! SHOW NOTES:

| 26 Oct 2022 | Black Adam – We Live in a Justice Society | 00:52:38 | |
If you say "Shazam," you know us Cinemaholics will show up, albeit as the darker, grittier versions of ourselves. Are we smelling what the Rock is cooking in his cinematic kitchen this time? That's right, Dwayne Johnson is officially a live-action superhero (though when hasn't he, really?), making his DCEU debut in Black Adam. But this isn't your older brother's best friend from college Dwayne Johnson. No, he's glowering. Oh, and murdering people a lot. Hear what we have to say about this movie, along with the expected — nay, inevitable — continuation of the only global conflict anyone can seem to talk about these days. The Pizza Wars. Show Notes:

Well, Disney remade another one of their classic animated movies in live-action format, which means it's time to dive into The Little Mermaid, from the same director of the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

More like Ridemaids. That's right, Joy Ride hit theaters this past weekend, and you'll never believe it. An R-rated raunchy comedy with positive reviews didn't make a ton of money at the box office. We know. Super surprising! But because we don't care about the Insidious franchise (and Jon watched Joy Ride twice for some reason), we thought it only fitting to find our cinematic Seoulmate. Well, Jon's at least. Joy Ride was directed by Adele Lim in her feature directorial debut and she developed the story with screenwriters Cherry Chevapravatdumrong and Teresa Hsiao. The film stars Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Stephanie Hsu, and Sabrina Wu, Ronny Chieng, Meredith Hagner, David Denman, Annie Mumolo, and Timothy Simons. It opened nationwide on July 7 through Lionsgate Films and has a 95-minute runtime. Our intro music this week is “Jazz is Good” by Weiter & TheMusicalcurrent. Links:

The first big MCU movie of 2022 is here, and we exist in a universe where we talk about it. After some quick box office catchup, we discuss the highs and lows of recent Marvel movies (and the Disney+ shows) before digging into Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, a sequel to the 2016 film, but also an "event" Marvel movie with crossover characters like Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and of course Benedict Cumberbatch, directed by the one and only Sam Raimi!

Speaking of toxic relationships, have you watched the new Venom movie, Venom: Let There Be Carnage?

Later in the show, we discuss The Many Saints of Newark, a prequel movie for the hit prestige drama The Sopranos, starring Michael Gandolfini (son of the late James Gandolfini) as a teenage Tony Soprano, which is now in theaters and playing on HBO Max for a limited time.

| 30 Nov 2020 | Raging Bull (1980), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) | 01:35:54 | |
Even in the midst of a year as hectic and unconventional as this one, Oscar season is still in full swing when it comes to this week’s selection of heavy hitters. Joining me once again for the first time in nearly three years is Maria Garcia, my former partner in crime from such shows as Now Conspiring and Part-Time Characters, and we’re discussing two films often hailed as being among the greatest of all time! We begin with Raging Bull, the morally complex sports biopic that saved Martin Scorsese’s life and has developed a widely varied legacy, and which one of us isn’t especially fond of! From there, we rewind the clock to visit Miloš Forman’s award season darling One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, a wholly unique classic within film history that holds up wonderfully to this day! What is the nature of tragedy? How far can sympathy and empathy take us? Has Sam become completely unrecognizable in the past three years? Which actor’s appearance in Cuckoo’s Nest has traumatized Maria on more than one occasion, and who emerges as the unexpected MVP of the film? Tune in to this week’s Extra Milestone for all of those answers and more. NOTE: Due to an unfortunate (and ultimately miraculously avoided) technical error, the final 15~ minutes of the episode were slightly distorted. Sorry about that! SHOW NOTES:
HOSTED BY: Sam Noland and Maria Garcia MUSIC IN THIS EPISODE: Music from Raging Bull composed by Pietro Mascagni, music from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest composed by Jack Nitzsche

The Cinemaholics were out of town this week, but they found time to gather around for a scary review of a scary movie called It, directed by Andy Muschietti and starring Bill Skarsgård, Jaeden Lieberher, and Sophia Lillis. This remake of the mini-series based on the massive novel by Stephen King is certainly one to keep an eye on, but is It really all that good? Does It live up to the hype? Jon, Maveryke, and Will debate and discuss. Check out our Patreon to support Cinemaholics!
