Binge Movie Aftertaste – Transformers Retrospective w/ Nate Peterson and Matthew Goudreau: Bumblebee (2018)

, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

It is one of the most unusual franchises in history as it is derisive among purists, yet it is also a lucrative moneymaker. I am of course talking about Transformers. A 1984 cartoon that had a massive toy line, only to be replaced by a whole new toy line by 1986’s game changing theatrical film. And then came producer Steven Spielberg, who hand picked non fan of the cartoon Michael Bay to handle a live action version of that oh so lucrative toy line from many years ago. With five films, a cartoon movie, and a brand new prequel starring Bumblebee, we tackle a franchise that is derided and molded. But how will myself, Nate, and Matt respond to it?

After Transformers The Last Knight came and went with barely a thud, Hasbro and Paramount finally decided that maybe, just maybe, it was time to move the series in a different direction. As discussed in The Last Knight podcast, producer Steven Spielberg called for a writer’s room meeting where he invited many of the most successful writers in Hollywood to discuss where to take the next chapter of the fighting robot franchise, In the end, it was Spielberg himself who not only decided to go backwards with a prequel, but also make an E.T. style film starring the most sympathetic figure of the series, Bumblebee.

Join myself, Matt, and Nate as we FINALLY get back together to discuss what we all decided was our most anticipated part of this retrospective, and decide if new director Travis Knight took the franchise in the correct direction.

Binge Movie Aftertaste – Transformers Retrospective w/ Matthew Goudreau and Nate Peterson: Transformers Age of Extinction (2014)

, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

It is one of the most unusual franchises in history as it is derisive among purists, yet it is also a lucrative moneymaker. I am of course talking about Transformers. A 1984 cartoon that had a massive toy line, only to be replaced by a whole new toy line by 1986’s game changing theatrical film. And then came producer Steven Spielberg, who hand picked non fan of the cartoon Michael Bay to handle a live action version of that oh so lucrative toy line from many years ago. With five films, a cartoon movie, and a brand new prequel starring Bumblebee, we tackle a franchise that is derided and molded. But how will myself, Nate, and Matt respond to it?

Three years following his proclamation that he was done with the Transformers franchise, director Michael Bay, armed with new leading man Mark Wahlberg, unleashed Transformers Age of Extinction. Hyped as ‘the one with the dinobots’, fans of the series once again jumped in glee at trailers for the film and when released, the film ended up crossing the $1 billion mark in worldwide box office.

Join myself, Matt, and Nate as we get into all that makes Bay’s 2014 film tick, and whether we enjoy it or not.

We appreciate your patience, as in just two more podcasts, we will have a review of the brand new Bumblebee prequel, already in theaters.

Binge Movie Aftertaste – Transformers Retrospective w/ Matthew Goudreau and Nate Peterson: Transformers Dark of the Moon (2011)

It is one of the most unusual franchises in history as it is derisive among purists, yet it is also a lucrative moneymaker. I am of course talking about Transformers.

What do you get when you cross two exhausted podcasters and one hyperactive podcaster with a show where the prior podcast dissected one of the most derided sequels ever made? You get this piece of Americana, as Nate, Matt, and myself look at Michael Bay’s projected final (Ha!) Transformers movie Transformers Dark of the Moon. Does it actually live up to Bay’s proclamation of putting his best foot forward? Or will all of us find it to be more of the same.?

Download below to find out, and be sure to check back as we are leading up to a review of the Bumblebee prequel.

0:00:00-wOW.

0:02:13-Lawlapalooza withdrawal is very real. Law and Moreno talk all about last weekend, including the NBA JAM tournament, Ammon’s arrival, Chad C’s car, The Winstons, Garrett’s eventual appearance, and much, much more. Of course, the boys want to hear from the listeners who attended last weekend’s shenanigans. Wow!

Binge Movie Aftertaste – Jurassic Park Retrospective w/ Jim Law and Nate Peterson: Jurassic World (2015)

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Waiting for a good, realistic looking dinosaur movie as a kid was like waiting to grow up. It couldn’t happen soon enough. Specials and educational programs of dinosaurs, as well as books and puzzles galore decorated every little boy’s room, just waiting for that movie that didn’t look like stop motion to come sweep us off our feet. And no, dinobots do NOT count. Little did we know, five movies about these very creatures would soon roam our theaters, all overseen by the director who had already changed cinema forever the decade before.

Fourteen years after Jurassic Park III came and went with little more than a whimper, producer Steven Spielberg was ready to once again tackle the world of dinosaurs. But instead of bringing in someone known for big blockbuster entertainment like he did with Michael Bay and Transformers, he brought in Colin Trevorrow. Who the hell is Colin Trevorrow, you may ask. He was the director of a little 2012 Sundance highlight called Safety Not Guaranteed. Based off that film, which was by no means a showcase of visual effects, the gamble on Trevorrow paid off as Jurassic World ended up making over $1 billion. But how do we feel about it?

Join me, Law, and Nate as all three of us revisit Jurassic World for the first time since theaters. All of us were initially dead set against its machinations and unending nuances back in 2015. But will the three of us feel the same way now?

Download below to find out, and be sure to tune in next Tuesday as we dissect the new release Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, and I give the Binge Aftertaste schedule for the remainder of summer.

Note: There were a few technical difficulties spread throughout this episode. Sorry about that. Please don’t make us extinct as a result.

The 2018 Goovey Awards!

, , , ,

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, because it’s time for the Goovey Awards!  NateP spent 876 hours listening to every Google Voice message, coming up with categories, and tallying some interesting stats for this show.  Why?  Because not only are we giving out 10 awards for Worst Call of the Year, Best Character, and Call of the Year, but we’re also doing a Listeners vs MorenoAlyx game based on said stats.  Well goddamn, this thing just got better!

Thank you to every single one of you for calling into the BingeCast.  It truly is one of my favorite segments going and, well, since it’s also one of Law’s favorite segments and we run the goddamn site, it’s not going anywhere.

As always, that number is 708-406-9546.  Call us any time.

Until next year!

BingeCast: Guardians 2 Reviewed! Colossal, Life, Saul, Fargo, Laser Wars, and much more!

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Nate P, laser wars, fart sounds, and an early GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 review. If that doesn’t sound like the greatest BingeCast of all time I got nothing for you here.

Come inside to hear Nate’s long lost first call to the show, his thoughts on the greatest British movies and television shows, and the exclusive first appearance of his daughter on a podcast.

Also, Law and Moreno have a laser war that goes on for way too long and somehow evolves into fart sounds that make Law giggle uncontrollably in the background for the last hour of the show.

We also review a dozen movies, lots of television, and get drunk on some brilliant Google Voice.

Where Timestamp Guy with all the details I forgot?

0:00:00- So Britishy

0:04:20-Law, Moreno, and that Kurt Russell hater across the pond, Nate P. Ammon is off pitching a tent. Not sexual. Literal as it can be. How did Nathaniel discover Binge Media? There’s also the origin story of Nate’s initial GV, but was it his actual first call? Whaaaaa? Law and Moreno track down the Lohhhst (lost) voicemail like Indiana fucking Jones. Nate is asked about British movies and the telly. Peterson can’t wait to try some of that deep duhish pizza in Chicago. Babadish.

0:48:28-TV ROUND UP. Nate just finished that Leah Remini Scientology show, along with The Trip to Spain (what the fuck?) and Happy Valley. Moreno and Law talk Better Call Saul and Fargo. Law brings up Brockmire, Silicon Valley (which Nate jumps in for), Veep, and the Roseanne revival (it’s a thing). Laugh tracks and shit. Team Stephen Merchant or Team Ricky Gervais?

2:00:52-GOOGLE VOICE. Nate imitates Ammon, starts it off right. LASERS HOLY SHIT.

2:30:53-I love this new sounder. Lawlapalooza stuff. More sound effects.

2:41:14-MOVIE HOMEWORK: Joe vs. the Volcano. More lasers.

3:07:00-WHAT DID YOU WATCH? Moreno watched some Alien movies. He also saw Get Out. Law trucks through Avatar, Apollo 13, Fish Tank, American Honey, Colossal, The Fate of the Furious, Life, and Edge of Seventeen. Nate brings his A game and reviews Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

And that’s it, you a-holes.

Binge Movie Aftertaste w/ Director Kevin Burroughs; Random Rumblings

, , , , , , , , , ,

Welcome cocksuckers. Why are Nate and Law not with me this week? Well, listen to find out. Needless to say, they let me down this week like a guy I made drink the blood of a black magic God who then turned on me.

But that’s not to say that I don’t have a show this week. A gap in the retrospectives allowed me to fit in an interview, specifically with the director of Smash Motorized Mayhem (which will be available on iTunes & VOD on March 21st), Kevin Burroughs. However, this interview was not easy to secure, mostly due to my drunken ineptness. Listen to find out specifics, as well as what it was like making the bus racing documentary.

That’s not all though. I also give a full review of Marvel’s Doctor Strange, and even fit in a little Twin Peaks talk. Not to mention give my thoughts on the huge news of Nate P making his way to Lawlapalooza this year. So listen will you, and love & mercy to you all.
