We're back with "Stand By Me" to close out our limited "1986" series. We discuss the amazing performances, share our funny encounter with Richard Dreyfuss, and debate whether the film's soundtrack is the best that 1986 offered.

It can debated that Rian Johnson's filmography is divisive among critics and fans. His talent, on the other hand, cannot be. From his impressive 2005 directorial debut, "Brick," to his just-released "Knives Out" follow-up, "The Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery," Johnson demonstrates a knack for cerebral storytelling and outstanding performances from his casts.

On this episode, we examine "Brick" and the resulting debate is divisive, indeed.

James Cameron is the most innovative filmmakers of our time. From "The Terminator" to "Avatar," he has been responsible for some of the biggest blockbusters over the past few decades.
How did he get his start? While it's not surprising it was a film on the water, what might be is that it was "Piranha II: The Spawning!" Promoted from special effects coordinator to director during the production, we take a look at the bizarre debut of Cameron, as we anticipate seeing "Avatar: The Way of Water" this weekend.

Cameron Crowe's movies tend to include great characters and great music. From "Say Anything" to "Almost Famous," we identity with these characters because we are them.

@afilmbypodcast on Facebook and Twitter

In just a few short years, Ryan Coogler has reinvigorated the "Rocky" franchise with the compelling story of Adonis Creed in "Creed," and taken us to the advanced civilization of Wakanda to introduce "Black Panther" to the MCU.
It is his directorial debut, however, that offers his most powerful film to date. "Fruitvale Station" is the true story of Oscar Grant's last day, as he navigates through the joys and hardships of family, friendships, and responsibilities before an altercation with police ends tragically.

With his recent passing, we take a look at the impressive filmography of Wolfgang Petersen and discuss the auteur's knack for delivering hits. Whether it's historical military fare like "Das Boot" and "Troy" or dramatic action like "In the Line of Fire" and "Outbreak," Petersen's films contained intelligent action and occasionally taught us important life lessons.

In his underrated sci-fi classic "Enemy Mine," Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett Jr. play soldiers from opposite sides of the war, forced to work together for the sake of survival. They ultimately learn that despite their differences, truth is truth when it comes to doing the right thing.

Rob Reiner made us laugh with "This Is Spinal Tap." He swept us away into adventure with "The Princess Bride." We discovered the fear of helplessness with "Misery," and he recaptured our childhood with "Stand By Me."

Other topics include fun license plate trivia, the similarities between the Ferrari and Bruce, the mechanical shark from Jaws, favorite scenes, and when asked his thoughts on sequel, prequel, remake, Scott accurately suggests the spin-off idea that's currently in development!

From his early days writing for Sid Caesar to his performance of Saul Bloom in the "Ocean's" trilogy, Carl Reiner kept us laughing for seven decades.

In 1987, he directed "Summer School." A comedy about a misfit teacher bribed into teaching a group of misfit kids; who learn a great deal about "going on throw-up rides and petting barnyard animals" as they prepare to pass remedial English.

Sidney Lumet is one of the greatest filmmakers with a body of work spanning six decades. His accolades are as impressive as the list of legendary actors he has worked with. From "12 Angry Men", to his final film "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead", he made films that widely regarded as classics.

In 1982, he took a Broadway hit and turned it into a slick, Hollywood murder mystery; pitting Superman himself, Christopher Reeve, against the brilliant Sir Michael Caine. The result was Deathtrap.

Taika Waititi seems to be successful no matter what genre he explores. From vampires, and pirates, to superheroes, and droids, Waititi has a gift for evoking emotion when and where you least expect it, even when a young boy's imaginary friend is Hitler, as such is the case in his Oscar and Grammy award-winning film, "Jojo Rabbit".

It is his directorial debut, "Eagle vs Shark", however, that allows Taika Waititi to explore two of his most bizarre characters in what can only be described as the quirkiest love story that can be told about misfits finding common ground, in order to find out about themselves.

Jeff Johnson and David Burns offer a quick, SPOILER-FREE review of Colin Trevorrow's latest dinosaur adventure, "Jurassic World Dominion".

Colin Trevorrow is one of the most successful directors to take Hollywood by storm in the last ten years. From his debut film, the brilliant time travel comedy "Safety Not Guaranteed", to the massive box office success of Jurassic World, Trevorrow proves he can deliver the indie, the blockbuster, and everything in between.

In 2017, after foregoing the opportunity to direct the ninth entry in the Star Wars saga, he directed "The Book of Henry". What was initially preconceived as a dark comedy transformed into a beautiful story about a mother, her two sons, and the importance of never leaving things undone. It is both heartbreaking and warmly uplifting all at once.

From the beginning of his career, critically acclaimed filmmaker Ang Lee has received accolades for his work. From Academy Award winner Sense and Sensibility, to the visually stunning Gemini Man, Lee has proven himself across genres; with two Oscar wins for his direction on Brokeback Mountain, and Life of Pi.
With his 1997 family drama, The Ice Storm, Ang Lee gives us a haunting observation of two families on the brink of tragedy during Thanksgiving weekend in Connecticut, 1973.

Our limited series, 1986, is back, and we're excited to be joined by Jason Colvin of the wildly popular Surely You Can't Be Serious podcast! Jason hits the courtroom with Jeff to discuss Ivan Reitman's rom-com crime thriller, Legal Eagles.
Robert Redford's likeability, fun cameos, Rod Stewart, casting could-have-beens, superhero connections, and one of the best answers to the Nintendo faceoff question we've heard yet are packed into this fun collaboration between the A Film By... and Surely You Can't Be Serious podcasts!

This week on our limited series, 1986, it's all in the reflexes as we discuss Big Trouble in Little China! Although John Carpenter's action/adventure martial arts comedy was projected to be one of the biggest hits of the year, it floundered at the box office. Today, it's wildly popular, having found a huge cult following on video.
Why did 20th Century Fox have such a hard time marketing the movie? Is Double Dragon the obvious choice for the Nintendo Faceoff? Favorite Jack Burton moments, Storms, sorcery, and F/X both good and bad are discussed. Just remember what ol' Jack Burton says at a time like this...

Akira Kurosawa is one of the most celebrated filmmakers of all time. His influence can be seen in the work of many of Hollywood's most successful directors. From Roshomon to Ran, the legendary Kurosawa delivered one incredible film after another. With Throne of Blood, he collaborates once again with the legendary Toshiro Mifune to pay tribute to Shakespeare's Macbeth.

When East meets West, the laughter shifts into high gear! David Burns is back on our limited series, 1986, to talk with Jeff about Gung Ho; Michael Keaton's automobile industry comedy!
Was this one of Keaton's better comedies of the 80's? Is a frog's ass watertight? Remember to wear your ribbons of shame on the inside, because this episode is looney tunes!

In the late 60's and early 70's, he led several young directors in the creation of a new Hollywood. He's won 6 Academy Awards, 5 Golden Globes, and the Palmes d'Or twice. He is Francis Ford Coppola.
From his masterpiece, The Godfather, to his underdog court drama, The Rainmaker, Coppola has consistently delivered some of the best movies in the past 50 years. In 1984, he returned to his roots to direct The Cotton Club; a film filled with gangsters, prohibition, segregation, violence, and incredible performances from a blockbuster cast.

Ralph Macchio is trading in the dojo for the Mississippi Delta in Crossroads! He seeks out an elderly mentor to teach him about the blues, and Jeff seeks out Dayton Johnson of the Docking Bay 77 podcast and Scott Hoffman to talk about this "road movie without a road" on our limited series, 1986.
The boys talk blues, rock 'n roll, the necessity of Jamie Gertz, and an amazing theory that connects Thrashin', Crossroads, and The Lost Boys!

It's April Fool's Day and there is no better day to discuss the cult classic of the same name for our limited series, 1986! The joke is on Jeff, because no one showed up to debate the murder mystery with a comedic twist. Only a fool would do the show without a guest! That said...enjoy!

"What do you thrash?" "What do you got" We've got BMX and skateboard enthusiast Brad Stidham back again to discuss the skateboard classic "Thrashin'" for our limited series, 1986!
We're talking half pipes, hand plants, jousting, and Josh Brolin's thrashin' fashion sense, as well as the California skating scene in this loose remake of "West Side Story".

Sofia Coppola is the youngest child and only daughter of Francis Ford Coppola. Her films have a visual style that have been described as hazy and dream-like; filled with neglected characters that long to be acknowledged and seen.
Coppola has established herself from her father, from her Academy Award-winning writing in Lost in Translation to edgy historical efforts like Marie Antoinette. It is her directorial debut, The Virgin Suicides, however, that perhaps defined her fearlessness to examine dark and controversial subject matter.

To celebrate the 94th Academy Awards, Brad nominates Dayton Johnson of the Docking Bay 77 podcast to join him for a frank conversation on the Academy's hits and their very many misses! From those who were robbed, to those robbed more by the omission of a nomination, the A Film By... podcast presents: Snubbed by Oscar!

Slip on your Vans and pour yourself a bowl of Kix, because we're back with another episode for our limited series, 1986! Jeff is joined by Alec and Cameron of the Comically Unaware Podcast, and special guest Brad Stidham, for a conversation about the BMX classic, Rad!
The guys reminisce about their first Mongoose BMX bikes, dating Lori Laughlin, an interesting "what if" idea involving Talia Shire, tubular ideas for a sequel, and the impossible odds of Helltrack!

Catherine Hardwicke has achieved things most directors dream of and so very few accomplish. Her directorial debut, thirteen, garnered Oscar attention. Her adaptation of YA novel, Twilight, was a global blockbuster, and turned relative unknowns Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson into movie stars and household names.
In 2005, between these films, she directed Lords of Dogtown; a gritty period drama that captures the birth of skateboarding as a sport, and the rebellious youth responsible for it.

"Knock, knock"! Jeff welcomes Scott Hoffman back for a special bonus episode of our limited 1986 series to discuss spy comedy, Jumpin' Jack Flash. Sam Kinison as a charming British spy? Computers with online chat in 1986? Whoopie's early stand-up, saavy computer tech, interesting remake ideas, and Penny Marshall in her directorial debut are among the things discussed before we "end trans".

It's the sport of kings, better than diamond rings...football. Our Special Correspondent, Jennalynn, joins the huddle with Jeff, Dayton, and Brad, to discuss the Goldie Hawn football comedy, Wildcats! Comparisons to Best of Times, the big screen debuts of several prominent stars, progressive storytelling, and one of the hardest working actors of 1986, M. Emmet Walsh, are among the plays called!

Amy Heckerling's written and directorial efforts make her a comedic legend in Hollywood. She gave a voice to teenagers everywhere in separate decades with Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Clueless. She took the Griswold's to Europe, and made us think of Bruce Willis' voice every time we saw a baby. In 1984, she took on the gangster era of Hollywood with her parody film Johnny Dangerously.
A young Michael Keaton is joined by a bevy of 80's comedic talent as they spoof mob wars, dames, tommy guns, and the big house. Does crime pay? Well... it pays a little!

"Feed me, Seymour!" On this episode of our 1986 series, Scott Hoffman joins Jeff for a garden variety conversation about Little Shop of Horrors that is sure to knock your stalks off (two puns in the first sentence?)! Scott provides a rich history about the property, from stage to screen to remake! Connections to Batman, the puppetry of Martin P. Robinson, great options for the Nintendo faceoff, and music that makes you want to turnip the volume (okay, that was the last pun) are among the topics that bloom (okay, but really that was the last pun) on this episode!

And for more on Martin P. Robinson, check out the Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry's "Little Shop of Horrors" forum at the following link https://www.facebook.com/BallardInstitute/videos/273676570307412/

Antoine Fuqua is one of Hollywood's busiest directors because he's one of the most successful directors working today. His appreciation for Kurosawa shows in many of his films, from Tears of the Sun to his Equalizer franchise. Brooklyn's Finest; his crime drama about a trio of conflicted NYPD cops, is no different, as it delivers on intensity, action, and powerhouse performances.

Illusions, deceptions, and murder! Scott Hoffman joins Jeff on our 1986 series to talk about F/X! Comparisons to Fletch and The Fugitive? Another great "give me your gun and your badge" cop moment! All this, plus Tom Noonan and more!

"What is high? What is high-er? What is learn? What is learn-ing" Higher Learning was John Singleton's third film about college life on a highly volatile campus; boasting an incredible ensemble cast, poignant storytelling, and a diversified hit soundtrack. Singleton delivers impactful socio-economic themes that are every bit relevant today, as they were in 1996.

We're soaring high this week with Iron Eagle! Jeff finds himself outnumbered in a dogfight against David and Scott, doing his best to convince them that this gem from 1986 (which debuted months before Top Gun) is worthy of respect and a place among the action adventure greats.

Guillermo del Toro has a reputation for the fantastical. He's danced with the darker heroes of comics with Blade and Hellboy.

Best known for his extensive foray into the Fast & Furious universe, filmmaker Justin Lin has a knack for taking known franchises and giving them a fresh take. And before he finished the "Kelvin Timeline" of the recent Star Trek films, he crafted an odd, if not controversial mockumentary called Finishing the Game. Crafting a "what if?" tale around the completion of Bruce Lee's Game of Death, Lin has his fun with a dubious cast of "would be" martial artists.

Are Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal two of Chicago's Finest? This episode shines sweet freedom on the answers to this and other questions!

Zack Snyder knows a thing or two about successful comic book adaptations. He wowed audiences with 300 and Watchmen, but before his world-building of the DCEU, he crafted a unique original story in Sucker Punch. It's a visually stunning fantasy adventure that divides critics and audiences to this day.

They came to SpaceCamp for a summer of training and fun. Without warning... They were launched into space! The challenge will be getting back alive. Jeff and Andrew talk NASA, and the incredible cast of young actors that became box office stars. Andrew shares his experiences at the real SpaceCamp. All this, and Tom Skerritt's mustache!

When searching for eclectic cinema, one needn't look farther than Wes Anderson. His films are crafted with dry humor, unique characters, and painstaking levels of detail. His 2004 dramedy, The Life Aquatic with Steve Sizzou, puts his go-to supporting star Bill Murray front and center as an egocentric oceanographer and documentary filmmaker determined to hunt down the mythical "jaguar shark" that ate his best friend, and kill it... for revenge!

When budget concerns threaten to close Commandant Lassard's police academy, Mahoney and the gang head back in training to help the new recruits shape up and save the day!

For five decades, Martin Scorsese has delivered hit after hit. We've rooted for his bad guys, be they an unhinged vigilante, or a slimy Wall Street broker. We've become envious of the gangster lifestyle, and we've marveled at the culture of people and places, long since passed. With Silence, his 2016 drama about two Jesuit priests setting out on a dangerous mission to find their mentor and propagate Catholicism in 17th century Japan, Martin Scorsese offers his passion project; 25 years in the making.

Welcome to the first episode of our limited series! A Film By... co-host Jeff Johnson believes that the year 1986 stands out as the best year for movies in the 80's. Whether or not he's right, we're kicking things off with The Money Pit. Tom Hanks and Shelly Long find themselves deeply in love and deeply in debt in this fixer-upper comedy!

From the erotic coming of age story about teenage boys with an older woman, to the magical and fantastical coming of age story about teenage witches and wizards at Hogwarts, Alfonso Cuaron has delivered an amazing body of work. On this episode, Brad and Jeff discuss his 2006 film Children of Men; a highly revered film whose message was lost on audiences upon it's initial release, but is ever so poignant today.

If you can name the seven deadly sins, or recite the first rule of Fight Club, you're most likely a fan of David Fincher films.

Pray for daylight, as we discuss Near Dark!
