Episode 682: The 2025 Summer Movie Preview

 It's a quadra-annual tradition, as the Deucecast Movie Show compiles a list of movies that YOU need to see that will be dropping, releasing, and streaming in the next three months.

This week, #XLessDrEarl is returning from his attending Friend of the Show Roth from Wyoming's wedding to the wonderful Lady Roth from Wyoming, so Mike and d$ read the notes to show you what to expect.

First up, a quick review of MI: FiReck that hit theaters this weekend -- where it falls on the overall Mission Impossible rankings, and what they loved about it (full review featured in June's ReFlicktions)... then, the summer preview, with new John Wick... new Wes Andy... Predator won't die... the Smurfs won't go away... and someone thinks that someone cares about Dora... plus, Live Action Dragons, Pixar's film that no one is talking about... Brad Pitt drives fast... M3GAN is the hero now?... more live action dragons... Netflix sequels no one cares about... Superman and Fantastic Four get their day in the spotlight... Liam Neeson goes slapstick... Idris Elba and Sydney Sweeney doing work... some director named Ron Howard finally gets a follow up to his hit Cocoon... Spike and Denzel back together again... and Peter Dinklege goes Toxie...

Episode 639: My Favorite Summer... The Action Movies

What good is My Favorite Summer if we can't have explosions, bad guys getting shot, car chases, high kicks to the face and more explosions?  Thats why we have the Action Movies! 

Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl bring in Friend of the Show Aussie Nate to talk about their favorite top ten all time movies consider action... and maybe a little sci-fi?  

First, birthday movies, learning how old Boyhood is, Runaway Bride, Angels in the Outfield and even Mikey's fave, Babar: The Movie.

Then, a Prime Day update, and Aussie's experience seeing his fave film in the theaters.

Finally, the guys chat about their own personal rankings of action movies, including Axel Foley's adventures, Jason Bourne's identity, Nic Cage out of prison, John McClane in airplanes and skyscrapers, John Wick falling down stairs, Jackie Chan kicking people, Indiana Jones being doomed, and the best portrayal of Wyatt Earp in cinematic history. 

Stick around for the Shark Talk in the stinger.

Episode 599: The Final 9 Roles

It took over 12 years to get here, but here we are.  Dave, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl are at the penultimate episode of an episode that feels bigger than 500.  A hundred eps bigger, as a matter of fact...

This is Episode 599.

As the Big Bracket finally takes shape, there are 27 movie roles that will vie for the title of "Most Iconic Movie Role of All Time" -- from Indiana Jones to Sally Albright to Derek Zoolander to James Bond and more... but we don't need 27. We need 36.

And to fill the final 9 roles, we've asked a podcasting legend, the one, the only Geek Out Loud's Steve Glosson to join the show and discuss.

With over 40 iconic movie roles in play, most will be eliminated outright, as round by round, more and more famous legendary names are dispensed, tossed aside like Mikey tosses aside Star Wars now...

Ethan Hunt gets a final shot... Harry Potter hopes to work some magic... Lord of the Rings has several nominees... Keanu Reeves has two up for debate... familiar names, previous losers like Carl Spackler, Freddy Krueger, and Kermit the Frog try once more.

And at the end of the episode, only 9 remain. The Final 9.

Judy Blume books... Chris Pine's range... d$'s Atlanta Bombing story... Nic Cage is insane...

Episode 531: Actors Who Did the Footballs

Now that all the 2021 lists are over, and the ReFlicktions for last month have been ReFlickted, its time to finally move forward with new lists, new topics, and old movies to discuss!

In honor of this year's NFL Draft, which just happened and to which likely 2 of the 3 Deucecasters (Dave, Mikey, Dr Earl) have no idea who was #1 (Minka Kelly, maybe?), it's time to talk a little football acting.

First up, a little May the Fourth Be With You chitchat, then the return of The Rotten Tomatoes Game (and the first mention of Knute Rocke in 531 eps), then, this week's Top Five... Football Players (college and pro) who turned to acting. Some cameo roles (as in, why Brett Favre is in Miami) and Bernie Casey gets a nod and a few names Rock multiple lists and even Burt Reynolds shows up.

Plus... both Robert Urich and John Metuszak might be making their debut mentions. Maybe. Unclear.

Episode 209: The Not-2015 Top Ten of 2015

Some of the discoveries you'll make on this episode of The Deucecast
Move Show
Every year, Mikey, Pinky & Dave talk about movies seen, and when January rolls around, it's time to talk about the movies seen that stood out.

The Top Ten of 2015 Films is an episode to come, but there are a lot of movies that were seen in 2015 that were actually NOT from 2015.  Thus... the NOT 2015 Top Ten of 2015!

The top ten favorite films of Mikey, Pinky & Dave that they watched last year that weren't actually from last year!

First, before that can kick off, a rousing round of Box Office Mojo, guessing the all time money making films both worldwide and adjusted for inflation.

And then, the countdown begins. Overviews of new found love for films that feature a TechnoRetro Dad host Shaz selection... a creepy show that Mikey fell for... a tie for Dave with films that star Brie Larson... a growing affection for Elizbeth Olsen... Pinky's favorite fun documentary... the saddest film that perhaps any of us have ever seen... Jennifer Aniston getting some love on some lists... and...

...the discovery of the real Magnolia fan in the room.

Plus, Mikey is known for his love of Dan Stevens.  Yet... there is another man muscling into Mikey's mancrush heart.
