Art House On the Go! Make your commute a little more cinematic with conversations from the staff and friends of Art House Cinema!
We're back after a week off to talk about CAUGHT STEALING, THE ROSES, and SPLITSVILLE. Lots of comedy. Lots of thoughts. Don't miss what's playing.
We're bringing the heat on Spike Lee's latest film, and have great admiration for Jeff Buckley. Hear our thoughts on both of these new films at Art House.
We've got a special guest this week! Spencer is our Social Media Manager for Art House and is not only great at his job, but he's got some great thoughts on all things film. He's here to talk with the guys about Weapons and you won't want to miss it.
We've got some differing opinions on Together (the new body horror film we opened this past Friday) and we'd love your thoughts as well! Love it or hate it, we've got lots to share and think about on this episode.
We've got thoughts (and feels) for our latest film "Sorry, Baby" and we hope you'll join us in the conversation. On top of that, we needed to revisit "Eddington" as Matt finally had a chance to see it and he wanted the chance to discuss it further. Lot's to talk about!
After a couple of weeks away from the podcast, we are back to discuss two films we've opened recently. Love 'em or hate ‘em, we think Superman and Eddington both deserve a conversation.
Matt and Kyler bring their thoughts on F1 to the podcast. It's a film with high expectations but enough energy and octane to get it to the finish line! We loved it and can't wait for more and more people check it out.
28 Years Later is a fresh take on a series that seems full of fresh takes. While it might disappoint some, others are calling in the film of the year. Either way, we've got lots of thoughts and things to break down.
We've got a film that's worth talking about! Lots to enjoy, breakdown and have some insight into. "The Life of Chuck" shines as another great Stephen King adaptation that has the potential to be seen again and again with increasing returns for generations. Don't miss our thoughts or the film itself now playing at Art House!
Wes Anderson is back with another signature film that has all the things we've come to love about his work. In this episode the guys break down their thoughts for how this fits in his filmography as a whole along with what they loved (and didn't love) about his latest film and story.
We spend a good amount of time talking about the Babcock Theater: what happened, what we've been working on since discovering the mess, and what our plans are (as of now) moving forward. Thank you to all those who have been so supportive and generous these past few days!
We also spend some time hearing some thoughts on the new Karate Kid film!
Mission Impossible - The Final Reckoning is at the Babcock and we have thoughts! For a series that's so long and epic as this we thought we'd better really get into the weeds on what works and what doesn't for this latest entry.
Mission Impossible is coming to the Babcock! Don't miss (what might be) the conclusion to one of the best running action series. On top of that Brian and Kyler share their thoughts on A Nice Indian Boy and we get a little behind the scenes look into how booking/scheduling films is going at Art House.
Don't miss this movie! It's sooooo good, refreshing and surprising in so many ways. Brian, Kyler and Matt break down why they were so pleasantly surprised with "The Ballad of Wallace Island" and you can be too!
The guys break down their thoughts on The Surfer and how it missed the mark for them, but maybe there's an audience that would love it. Nick Cage is at his "Nick Cagiest" and while that's always a joy, there are other things we felt like were lacking. Listen in and let us know your thoughts.
Matt, Kyler, and Brian discuss Legend of Ochi and how the 80s charm plays into their joy of the film, along with other bigger themes it explores in its enjoyable 90-minute runtime. After that, they need to once again shout out Sinners and the continued success and resonance it's having!
Brian, Matt and Kyler sit down to discuss their thoughts on "Sinners" and why it's the best movie of the year. From vampires, to music and religion, there is nothing better out there right now. Listen in and give us your thoughts on the film.
