  • Ep 56 The Mummy Returns

    Ep 56 The Mummy Returns
    2019/11/12

    The Mummy, along with the podcast, Returns. For some strange reason, Brian's computer deleted all of Brian's audio. Dan's side of the conversation was just fine, but obviously we had to re-record. 

    About that re-recording, Life intruded a bit. There was some travel, some personal time, and a random amount of just life related "stuff". But here we are again and we're watching the Brendan Fraser Mummy trilogy in reverse. It's crazy, we know, but we get to watch the characters get younger, and this time we get to see Rachel Weisz reprise her role as Evie.

    The whole cast is back and this time, there's MORE!!! More of what you loved about the first one, more flying, more swirling, more shirtless Imhotep, more Patricia Velasquez (Dan was pretty happy about that.)

    And The Rock!!!

    We hope you enjoy the episode and look forward to your feedback!!

    Ep 55 Silent Running
    2019/09/24

    Thanks Listener Rodney's (Rob Nease) for the suggestion. We had a great time with this episoe and we hope you enjoy it!  It's interesting how after the conversation you can think of all the things you wanted to mention but didn't. So we acknowledge beforehand that we might have missed some things.

    We do talk about the shoestring budget this movie was made on, Cribbage, Bruce Dern, space limitation in, well, space travel, and the very few number of humans in this movie. Product placement and overarching messages, coupled with corporate sponsorship in outer space.

    All in all, a good movie, with great ship design and 75 degrees of moderately plant-free existence. Nukes in space make spheres and, sadly, we didn't talk about going "space happy". 

    We hope you enjoy the episode and look forward to your feedback!!

    Ep 54 National Treasure
    2019/09/10

    In this episode we answer the hard questions; Does Nicholas Cage go full Cage (or uncaged as the case may be), Is this real history?, Did this really happen? Does someone have to go to jail???

    We wax philosophic about humankinds need to "fill in the gaps." and take a quick spin around Apocalypse Now. Would that movie have been better with Harvey Keitel?

    Ep 53: The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
    2019/08/27
    YAY!!! Classic Fantasy!!! We tackled The Hobbit, it was easy, they're small!! We compare dwarfs to Klingons and root for a mash-up. We fight about the Willhelm Scream and we get to listen to some listener voicemail!!!! YAY!! THANKS Listener Rob!!!! What is the major theme of The Hobbit? What did you take away from it? When do you say enough is enough?  Why did the giant eagles drop our band off at Pride Rock?  Do you change the words to songs?  The questions just keep coming!!!! We've included the transcrpt of Rob's kinds words, so you can see the Google Translate from Canadian to American :).  " Well, hey there Dan Bryan Rodney's calling from Canada here. I guess. Yeah, you can use my voice this time around try to keep my thoughts on my organized. So I just wanted to say, you know, John Wick episode long-anticipated lived up to the hype as a matter of fact your digression to discussing, you know, the meticulous habits of Hitman inspired me to do a little bit of cleaning up around the house is long overdue. So thanks for that. So far as my own history of John Wick I can say I took my father to see it when it came out if we didn't really have high expectations and both wound up liking it rather lot which is uncommon cuz I don't think we've really been seeing eye-to-eye on movies very much since the early to mid-nineties with the last one that we were equally fans of it might have been a Seagal movie so that kind of dates that Insofar as as your criticisms of the film. I think you you're pretty much spot-on. I myself was getting increasingly irritated watching it as to how just how oblivious Dopey on Greyjoy was that has been seemingly the only person on the planet Earth who hadn't heard of John Wick as the plot developed, but of course the pay off in the end it was worth it. I haven't listened to the entirety of of your discussion of collections yet, but I guess the thing I wanted to say about it is is my experience is collecting things is for me. Anyway, just how weirdly specific it can be. You know, it's not like you're Superman fan and you're necessarily going to buy absolutely every piece of merchandise You Under the Sun that has the Superman logo on it, like in my case, I guess kind of get into one sub niches of merchandising or or series. That's what I've got to get my grubby Claus on, you know quick example. If I'm going to buy Star Wars stuff. I like the 3 and 3/4 inch figurines I guess cuz they remind me of when I was growing up as a kid, you know the idea of owning a six-inch figurine or anything of that nature is anathema to me. I couldn't contemplate it even more so I have kind of my own special rule, which is I won't buy any merchandise like that unless it's on sale. I guess that's my one way of rationalizing it to myself. So if it's in a clearance bin, or if I see that's it's reduced for quick sale. Whatever the case may be like, okay. All right, I'll take that off your hands but full retail. No, thanks, or maybe just call that my Frugal Canadian nature. Oh, yeah one last thing about collections there bud noted that it appeared that some of my my films were in French, you know, I wish I were bilingual but the law of land here in Canada is All the DVD packaging is bilingual like so it can be sold in in English Canada as well as go back in."   Part 2...   "This is the time limit on these sorry for my rambling. I was just going to say that all the DVDs here come in both languages and I actually can remember coming back to my point about specificity. I worked with many years ago. I didn't really think much upon the one thing that he was very passionate about was driving down to Buffalo New York to buy DVDs cuz he didn't like French being on the cover. So that was kind of his seen as well. He would make regular trips to the Border specifically for that. These are obviously in the the pre Amazon times when you missed the the jewel in the crown guys, which is my copy of the 1980s japanimation classic ninja scroll highly recommended whether you're a fan of the band or not. I personally am not not really in that in that so-called culture that genre but it is a masterpiece as a matter of fact. I remember going to you know, some friends having You know, she knows my wife so I got to meet the husband does one does and then when I saw he had ninja scroll and his shelf as well as the moment. I knew okay, this is the safespace. I'm going to get along this guy just fine. He continued to be friends the state. That's about all I had to say guys. Hope you enjoy my magnificent upper Canadian accent a and I'll be looking forward to hearing you show number 51."   If you haven't been drawn into your own "unexpected journey", or if you have and your at a convenient resting point, leave us some feedback on the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/wriosmr/ or email us at  wrios2016mr@gmail.com or catch us Twitter @OurshelvesW or leave us a voice mail at (804) 699-1067!!!   Thanks again to our ...

    Re-publishing due to some sort of technical difficulty. We had reports that the episode wasn't showing up in podcast feeds and re-releasing the episode seemed to be the only fix we could find.

    The modern world encroaches on an idyllic Japanese village. Does The Last Samurai hold any comparisons to our current world?

  • Ep 50 John Wick and Collections

    Ep 50 John Wick and Collections
    2019/07/19

    It's not Tuesday and it has definitely been more than two weeks. I would like to use this space to apologize to our listeners. We went on a bit of a hiatus and while we were still recording a few episodes, they were not getting edited due to "life" getting in the way. If you choose to sling anger at us, Dan is innocent in the whole ordeal. I was at fault.

    As many of the movies we discuss will show, life is complicated and the longer it went on, the more difficult it became to get back in the groove, but here we are and we are back... Talking about John Wick and our collections.

    We hope you continue to join on us on this ride and we are sincerely glad to be back.

    Thank you and please accept my sincerest apologies.
