Episode 688: The Top Ten of 2001

It was a year of Hobbits on screen, a year of Playa to Playa Pimp to Pimp, a year of animated monsters,a year of Mogadishu on screen, a year of math on the window and a year of Seann William Scott getting work - the year was 2001.

So goes the latest in our summer series of Top Tens, with our guest, the Food For Thoughtcast host and Friend of the Show Melissa the Chef!

Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl invite in Melissa to talk about movies 24 years ago - the Best Picture winner, the Fannings first movies (Elle yes!) and the hot topics of the year. Plus, a countdown of all of our faves - everything from Wes Anderson to lamenting the non-work of Orlando Jones to why Mikey hates Lord of the Rings.

DCMS Ep 650: Ooh Ooh Witchy Deucecast

First up, random chatter about Joker Flop de Flop (honestly, I'm not looking up whatever that crap is called) and even some Megalopolis convo at some point, then the October Birthday Movies!  

Then, digging into our Top Five... the Top Five Witches in Movies. From the animated to the partly animated/real life, to the scary freaky, to the comical... and even the sort of kind of but not really witches. 

Then, it's time for MikeTober, as Garrison "The Pride of Albany" Ryfun and Miss Independent Jeremy Burgess join d$ and Dr Earl in offering movies for Mikey to see -- and possibly be crowned the 2024 MikeTober Champ!

Episode 629: Our Favorite Movie Experiences

It's a May Day and the summer movie season is kicking off, and the Deucecast crew spends a little time reflecting and remembering some great movie theater stories from way back in the day!

First up, making his debut on the show is local film maker and movie fan, new Friend of the Show, Bubba Willis.  We catch up a little with him and find out his movie proclivities, then we finally get back to Birthday Movies!  And we even mention Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen again!

Then, a brand new movie trivia game - can you name all the Harry Potter films??

Finally, Dave, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl, with Bubba, list their fave movie experiences. High school, college, recently, or long ago, hanging out in theaters with friends, family, parents, dates, and even getting stood up (THANKS ALLISON).

Episode 552: The Franchise Role Tournament

Because we are on the downslope to Episode 600, and we've done 21 of these and need to do at least 11 more... its TOURNEY TIME.

Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl are ready to put another movie role into the Big Bracket, to figure out what the greatest movie role of all time could be.  This episode, it's picking out the greatest roles from franchises.

The rules.... must be a character who appears in at least FOUR theatrical releases, no matter how brief, and can be played by the same or different actors.  Star Wars and Marvel are intentionally excluded, with one brief exception. And for the first time in any DCMS Tourney... Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings make their appearances. 

To do such a big event, the Deucecast trio need help -- enter the Pride of Buford Georgia, Spawn of Ryfun himself, Lil G, and Friend of the Show Roth from Wyoming, picking up last minute invites to be a part of the madness. 

Transformers go tet a tet... the wizarding world has a rumble, as does Middle Earth... action stars attempt to keep it in the family, while dynamic duos take on crime stopping wiseacres... will G's push for Ethan Hunt finally be successful?  What happens when two of Mikey's icons face off?  Is it fair to make #TwitterlessDrEarl decide a match from movies he's never seen?  Probably not, but here we go! 

Episode 540: Yo Teach

The summer is well underway as The Deucecast Movie Show has rolled through its twelfth June, and now past another July 4th (USA! USA!), and in this week's #FanboySummer edition, Arkansas fanboy and teacher and educator and smart cool dude Charley Wooten!

First up, a little about Charley, talking about his background and his podcast Sunday Synopsis, then the very first round of a game we call HIGH SCHOOL HIGH... which high schools in movies are made up or real -- and which might be inspired.

Then, the topic picked by the guest, Charley - surprisingly a topic not covered before, Fave Teachers in Movies.

Some of the topics include Harry Potter... Arkansas education... ruining Mr. Holland... Butthead's hippy teacher... Matthew Broderick enjoying his pie... young Charley and his Miyagi PJs... a shared love of Kevin James... the lost art of loving a movie that you couldn't immediately access...

Episode 526: The Spring Summer 2022 Preview

As Charlie Puth would sing, "It's been a long road without you my friend, but here we are to preview the movies again..." Or something like that.

After a two year absence, the Spring Movie Preview is back, as Mikey will tell you he worked 9 hours to bring this episode together!  And then, for funsies, we even add on the summer, to make it a full on preview of all the movies you'll want to see (The Bubble! Everything Everywhere All At Once! Bullet Train) and maybe are unsure of (AmbuLAnce! Hustle! Paws of Fury!) and those to possible, maybe sort of avoid... like Mrs Harris Goes to Paris?

We bring you the latest in Marvel with Dr Strange and Thor upcoming... in dinosaurs, as Jurassic World makes its final bow... the Buzz on the latest Pixar flick... historical dramas like Mincement and Survivors... Nic Cage dealing with the weight of his unbearable talent... more Harry Potter... and so much more.

Oh... and #TwitterlessDrEarl also says "RZA".

Episode 492: Top Summer Movies 2010 to 2014

 Only a few weeks left in the vaunted, critically acclaimed Summer Series! This time around it's Dave and #TwitterlessDrEarl holding down the fort as Mikey misses for only the 3rd time in 492 episodes - the going rumors is that it's a muscle strain after saving the orphans from the burning building, so that's what we'll go with.

As it stands, to fill out the show, making their very first appearance on the show.... Matt & Susie, the hosts of The Imagineears Podcast! Both movie fans, they take a break from Disney 24/7 to chit chat about fave films in the summer from 2010 to 2014!

Amongst the discussions, Susie's love of Twilight... Cap getting lots of love... Matt dreams of Sushi... more Harry Potter chatter... being fans of Nolan.... plus, Bad Batch talk!

Mikey and Dave, again sans #TwitterlessDrEarl, take up the mantle of more summer cinema, this time the best from Memorial Day to Labor Day in 2000 to 2004, and the guys bring back Miss Independent himself Jeremy Burgess to the show.

After catching up with The Burgeler (new reality show premiered this Fall on ABC), they play a little 2000s themed Rotten Tomatoes game, with the possible first time mention of "Shark Tale" ever on the podcast (and maybe the first time since the early 2000s anyone has thought of it), then onto the Top Five.

Nic Cage and Costner both make random appearances, with Spielberg films about airports and pre-cognitions also show up. Plus, the lower of the Mission Impossibles, Jamie Foxx and his Collateral, the beginning of the super hero era, Harry Potter shows up, Nicole Kidman's classics, Jay and Silent Bob go after their MoFo movie check, and the Black Pearl.

Episode 397: Books, Movies, and KB Hoyle

Sometimes the Deucecast guys -- Mikey and Dave -- like to try to class the place up by bringing in orthopedic surgeon and Nobel Prize for Medicine Nominee #TwitterlessDr Earl... and when that doesn't work, they bring in someone actually important.

First up, the birthday movies for September! Wicker Park (the beeeeessss!!) and Shawshank (Get busy livin or get busy podcastin') and Gone Girl and even a Bugs Bunny movie, and then, first time guest KB Hoyle joins the show.

K.B. Hoyle, award winning author of "The Gateway Chronicles" book series as well as the Breeder Cycle, answers questions about the publishing industry, movie favorites and reveals her fangirl status over Lord of the Rings and the like.

The crew reveals their top five movie adaptations of favorite books, including novels by Stephen King and John Grisham, classics about Mockingbirds and Cupboards, Hitchhikers Guides, lots of Jane Austen (and who is the best Mr Darcy), and much more.  Plus a great discussion on what is right and wrong about Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter books and movies.

Episode 356: Winter Movie Preview 2018

Thanksgiving is now over and the Holiday season is in full swing!  So Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessDrEarl run through the best of what's coming up with a winter movie preview.


But first, since the regular run-down of the latest seen movies isn't until later in the month, the guys give their quick thoughts on recent releases, including Widows, Nutcracker & the Four Realms, Fantastic Beasts 2 (including a Harry Potter lore discussion), Creed II and more.

And then a look at what's coming this winter... movies like a PG-13 rated Deadpool... Eastwood running drugs... more Transformers... J-Lo gets another movie that sounds like the secret of her success... Steve Carell in a narrative based on one of Mikey's favorite docs... a highly anticipated political comedy... M Night Shamalamala expands his universe... a remake of a Huey Lewis song movie... Liam Neeson drives a snowplow... and Blake Lively says the rhythm is gonna get ya.

Episode 256: Merry Christmas ReFlicktions

Once a month, Mikey, Pinky, and Dave bring you a very long episode... not just because they are long winded, but because they have lots of movies to talk about.  All the films seen in the last 3 to 4 weeks!  And as per usual with ReFlicktions, they invite in Remodeling Clay podcast host Clay Shaver to say hello and hang out with the group.

Among the topics discussed this month:  The dissertation of Wham!'s "Last Christmas"... Jerry Lewis movies... coming up in the video game doc series... the stress you might face in Norway... Harry Potter chit chat... what's wrong with Kevin Smith... bad app movies... hot Dune action... a quick OJ Simpson take... being gay "in the hood"... The Rock, animated... and a serious discussion on race relations and documentaries in that area... and the Oscar buzz is in the air!

Movies reviewed & discussed:
The Trust... Man vs Snake: The Long & Twisted Tale of Nibbler... Eye in the Sky... American Dreamz... My Life Directed By Nicolas Winding Refn (doc)... Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them... Queen Mimi... Heavy Weights... Kubo & the Two Strings... Hacksaw Ridge... Yoga Hosers... True Memoirs of an International Assassin... The Angry Birds Movie... Dune... Uncle Nick...

Trumbo

The guys list their ongoing top five of the year, while Remodeling Clay brings us an overview of "The Golden Child" in Be Kind // Rewind

Episode 210: The 2016 Movie Preview (and Top 100 Review)

Two big segments on the show this week!  Mikey, Pinky & Dave have a host-filled episode with no one else in studio but Producer Tommy holding down the keyboard, monitor and brass section.  And of course, Producer Shawn, always on the Annex Couch, first to arrive and last to leave.  Thank you, Producer Shawn, for your hard work and dedication to the cause of Deucentertainment.

A little "Stay Seated // Walk Out" discussion brings us answers to the questions of "Will Quentin Tarantino actually retire after his 10th film?" and "Have we had enough of Brad & Jen?" and "Should JJ Abrams be bought for reviving a huge Marvel franchise?"

And what franchise could JJ take over that would save it from the depths of suck?

The summer movie preview takes a gander at upcoming big films and Mike, Pinky & Dave's takes on them...

Chats commence about Benedict Cumberbatch in "Dr. Strange"... "Neighbors 2" with Seth Rogen & Zac Efron... the obligation to see "Batman v  Superman: Dawn of Justice"... love for Emily Blunt in "Girl on the Train"... some Clooney film called "Money Monster"... prospects for the chick "Ghostbusters"... how Pinky HATES "Ghostbusters"... Tom Hanks latest Oscar grab... the most tongue-in-cheek Marvel film to date... Jennifer Lawrence and Hugh Jackman begin wrapping up their time in the X-Universe... the latest Da Vinci Code movie... Emma Stone & Ryan Gosling re-team... Pixar's "Finding Nemo"... Matt McConaughy in a Civil War drama... excitement for "Suicide Squad"... the mixed opinions on the new "Star Trek" films... Jeff Goldblum in "ID Resurgence"... hopes for Billy Zane in "Zoolander Eye Eye"... Disney's "Moana" & "Zootopia" and the Disney-like "Secret Life of Pets"...

Also, featuring a lengthy conversation on returning to the world of Harry Potter in "Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them".  Is JK Rowling doing too much?  What are the prospects for success?  Will it succeed or fail?

More thoughts on "Captain America Civil War", asking the heartbreaking question "...Captain America is fighting Iron Man?" and how massive this will be.

"Rogue One" and the label of "A Star Wars Story"... will it help?  And is Biggs Darklighter making a real appearance?

Then, the show shifts to a quick overview of the Top 100 so far... what movies will need to go in upon further review?  "Nightcrawler"?  "Thank You For Smoking"?  "Leap Year" with Amy Adams?
What movies might fall out of the lists?  Movies that are more about nostalgia like "Monty Python & the Holy Grail" or movies that are good for one viewing like "The Godfather" or movies that can just be bumped, like "Dogma".

And then movies that are too recent to count, but could easily find their way into the Top 100 lists, movies like "Mad Max Fury Road", or movies that need to move up the lists, like "Fargo".

Finally... Pinky gives the films that he thinks will make it into his new Top 100 list.  Its about 100 films long.  Stay tuned.

Episode 190: Tough Chicks & Teresa

Back in the studio for your weekly edition with the best in movies and more, and this time d$, Mikey & Pinky are joined by fan girl extraordinaire, co-host of Fangirls Going Rogue and of Disney Vault Talk and of a 1000 other things, Teresa Delgado!

Jumping right in, the topic is "Bad A** Movie Chicks", or to keep it from getting an explicit tag, "Tough Chicks in Movies"... the Bride.. Ripley... Sarah Connor... and of course... Olive Pendergast.  Wait... what?

Even a few controversial choices are tossed in... like... Rose from "Titanic".  Argue away.

Later, the episode finds it's way into Harry Potter lore, where the gang discusses their first venture into Potterworld, some of the differences in the movies and books, characters that were cast correctly--and miscast--and yes, d$ makes a case for Alan Rickman being wrongly cast...

All of this and more in this week's The Deucecast Movie Show
