Episode 149 -- Intermission: Jaws

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the podcast... ba-dum... ba-dum... ba-dum... ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum badumbadumbadumbadum.... you'll recognize the music and recognize the terror of the ocean as The Deucecast Movie Show takes on the classic film "Jaws" from 1975.


The guys discuss the making of the film indepth, including how Richard Dreyfuss begged for the part of Hooper... the consideration of Jeff Bridges and others for the part... the monetary success of the movie itself... what the author of the book it was based on had to say about sharks today... the connection to the 2010 movie "Piranha 3D"... Pinky waxing poetic by saying "What scares you the most is what you cannot see"... Mikey using the word "titular"... and so much more trivia, fun and frivolity.


Plus, a quick reference to Jaws 2, Jaws 3D and Jaws: The Revenge--which one does Dave consider to be in his Bottom 10 Movies of All Time.


The are joined in the studio by friend of the show Drew and Brother of the Predator Sean Hall, and their take on Jaws.  And Superman III, for some reason.


Join us next week for The Deucecast Movie Show Episode 150, a special Christmas intermission when we take on the classic "White Christmas"!

Ep LXVIII: The Deucecast Saga, Podcast Moon

Here comes The Deucecast... the podcast sensation that's sweeping the nation... or at least, Inverness.  It's the 68th chapter of The Deucecast Saga, one we call "Podcast Moon", and this week, the guys invite in special guest Drew, but also the Boo of Drew, or maybe The Drew Boo... maybe Drew 2?  Kelsey Lately also visits the cast to bring her own chick perspective...

...on what, you might ask?  Oh, all the usual... like Mikey's whirlwind trip to Orlando and to Star Wars Celebration VI... his and his kid's visit to the zoo... and to Madagascar 3... Charlie Sheen's extended contract... Seth Green's new show... Michael Keaton as a villian... drinking Yum-E Tummies... Joss Whedon's pilot... the Demi Lovato's Tweet of the Week... Tone Loc's latest babymamadrama... and somehow, we spend ten minutes on the career of Kate Hudson.  Don't ask why, just go with it.

Mikey brings back a repeat offender to his Music Minute... we give you Minus the Bear.  Unfortunately, we can't be Minus the Segment, but hey, its all fun, right?  The guys team up to take on Kelsey Lately for a rousing game of "Battle of the Sexes", taking topics like Lancome's mascara brushes and HBK's nicknames.

Our Big Three discusses favorite on-screen couples, with movies like "Star Wars"... "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet"... "Roman Holiday"... "Mr & Mrs Smith"... and even more. 

More movies discussed include "Field of Dreams"... "Jack and Jill"... "Trespass"... and "Rio".

Next week, join the show when we take on The Big Three 4th Movies in a series... Mikey has more crap... a new Buried Treasure pops up... and more fun and frivolity... thats on The Deucecast Episode LXIX: The Deucecast Saga: Podcast Eclipse

Episode LXIII: Magic Mikey

After a what feels like a month long haitus--and let's face it, a week away is a week too much, let alone a month--The Deucecast is BACK!!!

Welcome to Episode LXIII: Magic Mikey, and we welcome back Drewski to the studio.  We kick it off with a splendid Good & Delish Drink, and discuss our week in awesomeness... the guys took a journey to IMAX to see "The Dark Knight Rises" as Chris Nolan intended it--huge screen! 

We also discuss Mikey's upcoming venture to Star Wars Celebration VI... and d$'s dental gagging (?!)...  Penn State's punishment... the legacy of Batman... and Drew's hipsterness of "Chocolat" and "The Cider House Rules".

We also dive into Mikey's Disney Adventure, with a quick run through of Epcot and the Magic Kingdom and the reason he missed The Kali River Rapids... again.

Mikey's Music Minute makes an (un)welcome return with some crap called White Rabbits ... and on the Big Three we discusses our favorite movie trilogies, touching on the worth of such series as "Back to the Future", the "Bourne" films, the "Oceans" trilogy... and of course, "The Lord of the Rings" and "Batman".

The Ryan Phillippe game comes back, with Drew bringing his A game for Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and so much more.   And... Tone Loc watch returns!

We dish on the films we enjoyed these past few weeks, including "The Amazing Spiderman"... "The China Syndrome"... "21 Jump Street"... the atrocious "Black Swan"... and all of us loved "The Dark Knight Rises".

Join us next week as we bring in Big Wookiee to The Deucecast Studios, and we pick our Big Three Favorite Athletes in Movies... Mikey brings more musical crap and d$ has a great Buried Treasure lined up for all of us.  That's all on The Deucecast Episode LXIV: The Deucecast Beyond Thunderdome.

Episode LVI: Indiana Tommy & the Podcast Crusade

Once again, its time.  Its time for music.  Its time for music.  Its time for Drew.  Its time... for... The Deucecast Episode LVI:  Indiana Mikey and the Podcast Crusade!

Right off the bat, we drink a little... thats drinking some Vitamin Fizz, by the way, which is better than you might think.  Jumping into the week, Mikey discusses his zoo adventures, Drew talks about his crazy weekend travels and d$ has more sleepy trouble with caring for an infant.  We also riff on The B in Apt 23... Veep... the upcoming Hatfield & McCoys... James Doohan in Space... GI Joe's release date... and does Superman II hold up anymore? 

Wil Wheaton becomes a topic of discussion, somehow... as does the trouble with Seal's lyrics... Cub Scouts, Webelos and Eagle Scouts... the trouble with Facebook and its possible legacy (AOL, anyone?)... and in a Nerd Alert, we answer the question, which is a higher ranking:  A Star Trek Ensign, or a Star Trek Junior Grade? 

Its a very music heavy episode, as Mikey's Music Crap takes on The Shins and John Mayer...  d$ begins his five part Americana Series for The Buried Treasure with an acting legend... and our Big Three Favorite Soundracks include music from Pulp Fiction... You've Got Mail... Phenomenon... and The Crow.  And in a "how did we get here", we go from Nelson to Nilsson to a Bible Study highjacking of "Peaceful Easy Feeling" by The Eagles.

Mikey also does the unthinkable, and craps all over John Williams and his music.  Because the themes to Jaws, Indiana Jones, Star Wars and Forrest Gump sound exactly alike.  Right?  Right.

And next week, we welcome in Hurricane Rhett as we discuss The Big Three Worst Acting Performance Ever... Mikey has more crappy music... and Part II of The Buried Treasure Americana Series... thats all on The Deucecast Episode LVII:  Indiana Dave & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!

Star Wars woes... upcoming films... seen films this week... Lesley Mann... the promise of "Machete Kills" and "Sin City 2"... and even more.

Mikey's music brings out some Snow Patrol, and d$'s retort includes Dishwalla and some Factor 7.  Drew opens up a great Smorg, touching on the previous topic of "What Makes Us Love Movies" by discussing some of the great (and not so great) acting performances out there, including Daniel Day-Lewis' career, Annette Bening in "The American President", Johnny Depp in the Pirate films and even more. 

Our Big Three dives into some childhood memories, that being Books We Loved As Children, including classics like "The Indian & the Cupboard"... Dr. Seuss' books... Brer Rabbit stories... and... Bunnicula (!?)

And finally... our first segment of Lawyer Up with Latta, as Brad J. Latta joins us to discuss some new, controversial legistlation that our president has signed... and remarkably, it doesn't turn into a shouting match between right (d$) and wrong left (Brad).
