Cinebabble
Cinebabble covers all things cinema, diving into the latest theatrical films, Blu-ray releases, TV series, streaming movies and more.
The boys take a much needed getaway to the eerie, often hilarious, sometimes downright scary island of Widow's Bay. In part 1 of this two-part pod, Clint and Ken discuss episodes 1-5 of Apple's latest and greatest, a show that's just possibly one of the best TV series in recent memory.
Did you expect anything else this week? For episode 155, Clint and Ken dissect Christopher Nolan's latest movie... film... erm, experience? It's a lot. Of everything. The real question, though: how far will Nolan go in his pursuit of maximalism and his quest to deliver the ultimate in practical cinema?
Tons of movies and one existential crisis too many. Join us for a session of Ken's therapy, followed by Trailer Trailer and three reviews: Ready or Not 2, We Will Kill You, and Severed Sun.
It's never too early in the year for horror movies... and good God is Avatar: Fire and Ash a horror show. Lots of ranting is had by all in this, the latest episode of your favorite addiction: Cinebabble!
It's indie horror from the YouTube generation. And it's... great? Two young new filmmakers, two terrifying treats, too many ways to die. Which is best? Which will stand the test of time?
The boys' nihilism continues in Post-Apocalypse Films Week 2. In this episode, they babble away about government-collapse flicks, including, dear God, another Kevin Costner swing-and-miss, The Postman, and John Carpenter's Escape from LA. What a duo...
Week 1 of the boys' plunge into post-apocalyptic cinema focuses on Mad Maxian societal-collapse flicks including, God help us, Waterworld...

Grab the Kleenexes, it's three tearjerker Best Picture nominees: Hamnet, Train Dreams and Sentimental Value. Sniff. Sniffle. Sniffle...
Miller's Project Hail Mary, which stars Ryan Gosling, a nice little international supporting cast, a host of neat-o practical fx (always a favorite on the pod), and a puppeteer who earns the hell out of his SAG card. Now in its second successful weekend at the box office, the buzz is high and the praise effusive. But how good is it? Does it top the book? Or is it a pale imitation? Get all your hot takes here.
Join the Babblers as they tackle all things Martin Scorsese, taking a look primarily at three of his earliest films.

We're fast approaching Halloween, and there's no more frightening series for church kids from the '80s and '90s than Mike Flanagan's Midnight Mass, streaming on Netflix now. Vampires, beasties, blood, religious extremists, body horror, twisted theology, and mankind's penchant selfish ambition shiver
And lo, the Lord bestowed upon Cinebabble a fun side project: Cinepprentice, a training ground of sorts wherein Ken is joined by an aspiring Gen Z cinephile eager to be introduced to classic films. First up, Wes Anderson's Rushmore and David Fincher's The Social Network, followed by some MCU chat centered around the saga's latest entry: Shang-Chi.
This week our brave Cinebabblers briefly remain in the '90s for a long forgotten segment: Mail Bag (3:10). Underrated '90s movies, overrated '90s movies, movies you'd love to see remade and more.
From there it's a return to the present with James Wan horror flick Malignant (42:00, spoiler alert), Netflix actioner Kate (57:50), and CineTron pick Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar (1:07:50). Closing things out is a fresh spin of the CineTron-3000 (1:19:40).
Our time-splitting Cinebabblers remain in 1994, revisiting True Lies, In the Mouth of Madness, Clifford, and Leon: The Professional. Ah '94... Ken was reaping the rewards of independence after turning 16, Clint was Sega and Nintendo'ing with the best of them, and the CineTron-3000 was but a dream in the farflung land of 2021.
Our time-hopping Cinebabblers revisit an amazing year in film: 1994. Ken had a fresh new driver's license, Clint was looking ahead at his ever-encroaching years in middle school, and the CineTron-3000 was but a floppy disk at the dawn of the internet.
Part One offers a full Whatchoo Watchin overview of the many, many, MANY films of 1994, followed by Clint and Ken's best and worst of the year.
Join Ken and guest co-host Anthony for a deep dive into Star Wars: Visions, the nine-episode anime-infused franchise series available on Disney Plus.

Last but not least, a spin of the CineTron-3000 (54:45) leaves Clint and Ken with a bonkers horror comedy to look forward to next week.

We want to hear from you! Visit www.cinebabblecast.com
This week on Cinebabble our dedicated duo chat all things “Whatchoo Watchin’ Bout” (3:05) before more closely covering a trio of sequels: the Cinetron 3000-selected Rambo: Last Blood (15:25), writer/director Kevin Smith’s Jay & Silent Bob Reboot (33:55) and Zombieland 2: Double Tap (51:35).
Which sequels soared? Which plummeted? Which made the Cinebabblers question their love of film? All this, plus a new Cinetron spin (1:11:35) for your listening pleasure...
The Cinebabblers swap Whatchoo Watchin Bouts (3:10) before charging headlong into the fray with coverage of the third episode of HBO’s adaptation of Stephen King’s The Outsider (15:55), indie western Slow West (27:20), Columbian war drama Monos (35:05) and Ang Lee actioner Gemini Man (50:15).

Then the Cinebabblers put their fates in the cold icy hands of the latest addition to the Babble studio, the Cinetron 3000 (1:22:30). This week the Cinetron is particularly cruel. Find out what film it spits out at our mortified hosts.
The Cinebabble boys swap Whatchoo Watchin’ Bouts (2:50) before tackling spoiler-free reviews for Uncut Gems (22:10) and The Lighthouse (28:25).

Finally, the Babblers introduce a new, yet-to-be-titled segment with a play-along-at-home element (1:17:00).
This week the Cinebabblers shake off the holiday dust and glitter for the first of their soon-to-be-annual Best of the Year ‘casts. This year was a better year in film than Clint or Ken first assumed, leading to two fairly diverse lists (52:45).
Before digging into their top picks, though, they trot out an extended Holiday Binge Edition of Whatchoo Watchin’ Bout (2:45), featuring a who’s who of mini reviews for The Last Black Man in San Francisco (4:05), I Am Mother (8:15), Until the End of the World (13:15), Underground 6 (20:30), Dolemite Is My Name (23:05), In Fabric (26:00), The Witcher Season 1 (29:15) and BBC’s Dracula Season 1 (42:00). Then it’s Cinebable’s final Season 1 Mandalorian Minute (46:20).
The Stars align in Episode 9 of Cinebabble as the boys find themselves talking about Episode IX, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Coincidence, um, yeah most likely.
What you’ll find in this stocking-stuffed Star Wars holiday spectacular:
Whatchoo Watchin’ Bout (3:00) Mandalorian Minute Episodes 6 & 7 (22:35) Star Wars Personal Histories: OT, Prequels & Sequels (32:05) Star Wars Episode IX Review and Spoiler Talk (41:35) Is the Internet Ruining Movies? (1:29:10) Christmas Essentials (1:33:35)
It all comes to an end in “See How They Fly.” No White Rings of Jupiter (theory dashed!) but plenty of excellent resolution to an extraordinary series.
The Cinebabblers jump right into a packed-to-the-brim episode with another round of “Whatchoo Watchin’ Bout” (1:45), the fifth “Mandalorian Minute” (11:30) and some good ol’ fashioned Trailer Talk (19:10). Then it’s four, count em’, four reviews: Fast Color (31:30), Her Smell (39:25), It: Chapter Two (57:24) and Crawl (1:07:00). Spoilers!
The Cinebabblers fall madly in love with HBO and Damon Lindelof’s latest episode of Watchmen, “A God Walks Into Abar”. The ep not only blows their minds with its elegant mastery of timey wimey sci-fi, it manages to soften Ken on his lingering TrapdoorElephantFart hang-ups from “An Almost Reigious Sense of Awe”. Spoilers abound.
This week our fearless Cinebabblers diverge. Clint experienced an almost religious sense of awe while watching Watchmen’s latest. Ken was left a bit cold on three (hopefully) minor details but remains hopeful that anything that bothered him will be rectified in the season’s final two episodes.
The Cinebabblers talk Ghostbusters: Afterlife hopes and dreams (or lack thereof) before digging into “Whatchoo Watchin’ Bout” (3:15) and the possibly-so-but-probably-not-but-maybe-final “Mandalorian Minute” (17:10). Abandon all hope ye who enter Disney+ and its Star Wars misfire. From there it’s three post-Thanksgiving reviews: The Irishman (24:50), Knives Out (38:45) and I Lost My Body (53:15). Spoilers!
Finally, Clint and Ken discuss movie theater etiquette... or what passes for etiquette in 2019. But what if things were different? If the Cinebabblers ran the world, these would be their sacrosanct theater rules (1:03:00).
The Cinebabblers take a quick look at the newest evolution of internet rage (1:30) before diving into the latest “Whatchoo Watchin Bout” (6:05) and “Mandalorian Minute” (24:05).
