Episode 689: The Top Ten of 1986

The big hair and the metal bands and the jams and the jelly shoes 

and the movies were big and the stars were bigger... and our guest, 

filmmaker Ken Horstmann's beard was even bigger.

The year was 1986, and the movies were rad. Dave and Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl, along with Ken, dive into the decade of excess, with some great chatter on movie trivia, Rodney Dangerfield, Stephen King novellas, Michael Keaton and Gedde Watanabe, some John Carpenter camp, whether Alien or Aliens was better, everyone slurping Ferris Bueller (though not d$, he's not fooled) and more. 

Episode 686: The ReFlicktions Scheme

 It's now officially summer and we are in the midst of the Top Ten Summer Series! But every now and again, we take a break to celebrate the best that current movies have to offer! 

Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl round up their latest, including...

Ethan Hunt's last ride... why Tom Hulce wasn't bigger... revisiting a modern classic... Disney's latest films... a movie based on a musical and the movie based on that musical... Elisabeth Olsen's new flick...  the extended love for Mr Miyagi.. Fear Street returns.. a handful of documentaries... a dragon live action... John Wick's disappointment...

Plus, the newest Top 5 of the month, and more movie assignments!

DCMS Ep 685: The Top Ten of 2004

 Welcome back to the summer! Father's Day has come and gone, and we are headed to the first official day of Summer, even though we are all burning up from the heat. And what can beat the heat?  MOVIES!

A return to 2004, the year d$ got married, the year The Deuce as a physical apartment ended, and Roth From Wyoming was a wee teen... and #XLessDrEarl was also there too somewhere.

Its the year of Peak Will Ferrell... love for Tom Hanks in an airport... voting for Pedro... Olympic hockey... White Goodman... Tom Cruise being bad... stealing the Declaration of Independence... Super Pixar... and much more, as the guys welcome in Roth from Wyoming to count down their faves from the Year of Our Lord 2004

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: The Deucecast Afterlife

Inching ever closer to the monumental episode #700, Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are here to discuss not just life in the movies... but AFTERLIFE in the movies.  The coolest, scariest, most unique, or best (subjective) portrayals of the Heavenly Realm... or the Hot Basement... and maybe even some purgatory in between.

First, the Angelic Trio checks out the box office in 2024, with a round of Box Office Mojo - figuring out what films made the most money... domestically of course (because we aren't communists), and in the calendar year.

Then, a list of films featuring the Big Guy Upstairs, Ol' No Shoulders down below, a few angels, a few demons and more.  From Bill and Ted to Swayze to Albert Brooks to some Pixar Dr. Earl has never seen, it's a fun list. A blessed list, we hope. Thoughts and prayers. 

Has to be blessed with Malick, right?  Right? 

Finally, a quick look at the new film "Companion", and both d$ and Mikey's recommendations. 

Episode 655: The Tom Cruise Top 10

 He's one of the last real superstars, and last real movie stars that we've had in Hollywood, and no, we aren't talking about our friend Jeremy Burgess...

We are talking one Thomas Mapother IV, aka, Tom Cruise, and it's time for the show to do our official Tom Cruise Top 10.  Mikey and d$ are joined, as per usual, by #XLessDrEarl and a big movie fan, the Pride of Dahlonega, Spawn of The Voice of Valdosta, Lil Garrison Ryfun to count them down.

First, Garrison gives his review on the latest Pope romcom, "Conclave", with #XLessDrEarl chiming in a little.

Then, starting with "Endless Love" and ending with "Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning", and every Tom Cruise movie in-between - each of the guys list their fave Cruise films as we go along. 

Finally, at the end of the show, an overall average is taken and the Official Tom Cruise Top Ten Films are announced! 

 

DCMS Ep 648: Touchdowns to Theaters (NFL movie stars)

Happy Fall! Or Merry Autumn, if that's how you celebrate... three guys who declined every single invite to any Freak Off Party, the DCMS guys are ready to talk some football!  Or at least, players in the footballs who also hit the silver screen - from Hall of Famers to random players who we knew long ago, here our d$, Mikey, and #XLessEarl's Top Five former NFL player who did some movie stuff.

Also, a rousing game of Rotten Tomatoes, along with some quick reviews on the new Transformers One film.

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 593: The Barbenheimer Dead Reckoning Asteroid Hustler... of destiny

Super long episode title befits a super long episode, and Mikey, d$, and #TwitterlessDrEarl have an awful lot to go over... it's July 2023 ReFlicktions and the meat of the summer blockbusters fall into this episode.

First up, Dave kicks it off with the first of two Katie Heigl movies as he begins to finish a quest that no one should really ever want to do.  #TwitterlessDrEarl does hit the Pretentious Corner once or twice, as Mikey dives into the Cannon Films schlock of bad Chuck Norris and the classic film of good Jack Lemmon. 

Both old movies and new are celebrated, and of course, the biggest of the summer - Asteroid City, Indy 5, Oppenheimer, Barbie, and MI Dead Recks P-1 all are covered here, as well as the guys' new Top 5. 

And the guys even touch on some of the controversy of the Barbie film and it's themes and possible agenda...

Lots to get to on this show, including catching up with Roth and his latest ventures... then some birthday movies, including the incredible news that Seabiscuit is 20 years old!

A brand new game -- Everything Everywhere All At Once Upon a Time in Hollywood -- makes its debut on the show, as the crew pairs up movie titles for points. 

Finally, Mikey, d$, #TwitterlessDrEarl, and Roth give their favorite 1-2-3 Punch for actors... that is, which actors had the best back to back to back hit films, from double doses of Harry Ford to tripling up on our fave Katie Holmes ex... which leads to Mikey's own theme for the episode, in memory of Garrison Ryfun, of course.

Stick around throughout the episode to hear about Roth's charitable work with RISE Foundation of Wyoming and how you can help! 

(Way too many movies to list their streaming sources - you can do your work this week)

 

Episode 591: Fave Stunt Scenes

It's the week that "Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One: Across the Ghost Nationverse" opens (already d$'s fave films of 2023), and what better way to celebrate this landmark film occasion than to talk about fave stunts in movies.

And what better 2023 #FanboySummer Loser Winner Participant to have than Friend of the Show Revolving Part Time Co-Host the Pride of Albany, Georgia, Spawn of Ryfun, Lil G himself G Thang Garrison Ryfun join Mikey, d$, and #TwitterlessDrEarl to talk about it.

First up, a quick, non-spoiler preview review of the aforementioned MI flick, from Garrison, who is out from under his review embargo (apparently he saw it at Wal-Mart? Dunno), then a round of Rotten Tomatoes, Jackie Chan style.

Then, diving into the Top Five, the crew give their favorite practical stunts in movies, including pole fighters, plane droppers, backwards movers, sword fighters, hose swingers, Trans-Am jumpers, rapids swimmers, chariot racers, rain dancers, Bond cyclers, and EVEN MORE!

Episode 579: Our Fave Movie Coaches

 

Sometimes the topics come to the guys easy, especially when they fit around the guest so perfectly -- hence, we finally discuss our Top Five Fave Movie Coaches, as we bring on a returning fave and now a head coach in his own right, Clay Shaver! 

Clay lets everyone know where he's been, and how he's now a high school basketball coach. 

Then, some birthday movies, letting the world know exactly how old movies like Scream 2, Cop & a Half, and Soylent Green are... and of course, Ladybugs. RIP Jonathan Brandis.

A rousing game of Denzel is up next, with a surprise winner in dominating fashion.

Then, the Top Five Movie Coaches -- naturally you'd think football, or just even any sport, but leave it to dear ol' Mikey to make it weird. Plus, great discussions on this generation's "Caddyshack"... Tom Hanks being a great drunk... Gene Hackman and Jack Nicholson are old... and what might be the best bowling movie not named The Big Lebowski...

Episode 572: The Oscar Winners Tourney

In the midst of the Oscar season, the SAG Awards, the PGA Awards, the BAFTAs, the Blockbuster Entertainment Awards, and of course, The Deucies, we mustn't lose sight of the fact that we are still filling the Big Bracket with names and memorable, ICONIC, movie roles -- so what better way to merge  the award season into the Big Bracket with an Oscar Winner Tourney.

And to help decide this all important winner -- Lil G, the Spawn of Scotty Ryfun, joins Mike and d$ while #TwitterlessDrEarl is on assignment in Nova Scotia. 

Sixteen Oscar winning actresses -- only roles that won the golden statue, not just nominated, because if you're not first, you're last -- on one side, and 16 Oscar winning actors on the other.

Tonight's ep involves some incredible actresses -- Emma Stone and Jessica Chastain hope that being recent winners will cement their own legacy in the voters eyes, while Hollywood royalty like Vivian Leigh and Audrey Hepburn hope that multiple generations of stardom will put them through.  Gregory Peck's Atticus Finch strides through the courtroom of Bracket Opinion, while Daniel Plainview drinks your Big Bracket Milkshake. 

Some actresses appear twice, some movies get multiple shots at glory, and for some roles, this might be their only chance to move forward. 

And who knew that Mikey hated Gladiator so doggone much? 

 

Episode 569: Who Won 2022?

The new year has begun, winter is crashing around us, and it's time to reflect on what made our moviedom in the last year... and for the second time, we ask, Who Won the Year?  And maybe for the first time, because we can't remember, we ask Who Also Lost the Year?

First up, a few quick reviews -- "Living", as seen by Dr Earl, "Aftersun" as seen by Mikey and Dr. Earl, and "Women Talking", as seen by Mikey and Dave... and those Oscar nominated films lead into the discussion of the recent Oscar nominations, with Mikey going all in on Top Gun Maverick... Dave making a case for Everything Everywhere All At Once... and Dr Earl chiming in with pretention.

Then, a top five of the winners and the losers... how can Margot Robbie be both?  And Tom Hanks down year, with Tom Cruise's amazing year... who won the animation game... big time directors taking a hit, but big time blockbusters becoming a hit... too much Korg, just enough Jimmy Cam, and not enough Hong Chau.

Of course, the usual rabbit trails of random conversation. 

Episode 563: Christmas Gifts 2022

It's that time of year once again... The Cheetah Girls have returned to spread their vocals, their mirth, and their marshmallow world all up in your earholes as its the Annual Christmas Gift Episode -- the one where we, that being Mikey, d$, #TwitterlessDrEarl, and Christmas Gift perennial Lil G Spawn of Ryfun Pride of Waycross Garrison, give out the best movie related gifts to the studios, to the people, to the actors, and even some to each other.

The theme music rolls and the festive festives for the entire show!

First up... a spoiler free -- then a spoiler filled -- review of "Avatar: The Way of Water"

NOTE: We talk spoilers from 14:42 to around 21:50 of the episode, so if you haven't seen it or don't want to hear, then heed the time stamp accordingly

Then the gifts... to Tom Cruise! To Netflix execs! To Bob Iger! To Michael Giacchino! And the creation of a brand new, free, ad-supported streaming service that you should subscribe to!

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 550: The Summer Winners and Losers

The fall is almost here, and if you haven't heard the Fall Movie Preview from last week, go back and listen.  But as the Deucecast boys -- Mikey, d$, and #TwitterlessDrEarl -- puts the summer to bed, first with the end of #FanboySummer and the look ahead to the new season, one final nail in the summer comes in the form of the Winners & Losers of the Summer Movie Season.

First up, a little Box Office Mojo, figuring out which movies crossed that magical $100,000,000 number (also the number d$ owed on Discover Card circa 2001). 

Then, five winners and five losers from each Mikey and Dave, while Earl can proclaim all the winners, his kind heart only allows him to discuss three losers. 

We also discuss the problem with Kevin Hart... the problem with Audrey Plaza... the BIG problem wit that new demon show... the problem with 2022 Tom Hanks... love for Zac Efron... being impressed with Elvis... more Cha Cha love... the movie that broke Mikey... how a stupid cartoon might be the smartest thing on TV... missing girlfriends and catfishing... and Tom Cruise being the most best Tom Cruiseiest ever...
