  • Jonathan Glazer returns to the fold on this week's special presentation! Not content with the worlds of sexy criminal maniacs and sexy alien maniacs, the venerable director turns his sights on those decidedly unsexy, genocidal maniacs - The Nazis with 2023's The Zone of Interest! The banality of evil - a murder machine run by boring people in a boring society shutting out the horrors around them either by learned ignorance or sheer force of will. Nazis suck.
     
    Next week: Thomas Mapother Cruise makes his debut on the podcast!

Congrats - by downloading this podcast you’ve saved yourself from manual labour when we get our own gold. Until then, we ask Our Question: "Is This Movie a War Movie or Is This Not a War Movie?!"

  • This week, the fellas head to 1950s Korea with the Anthony Mann film Men in War! They debate if the movie takes Benson or Montana's point of view in terms of battle conduct and then discuss other topics like the career of James Edwards and the unfortunate "legacy" of Stepin Fetchit, the movie infuriating the Pentagon, the use (and absence) of music and much more.

  • Continuing right along, the guys discuss the pre-Vietnam War film set in Laos... Rescue Dawn. Is this Werner Herzog's most straight-forward conventional film? What connection did he find between himself and the man being portrayed by Christian Bale in Dieter Dengler? Is the portrayal of Gene DeBruin really, really awful? What sort of rigorous torture did the cast put themselves through? All this and more this week on the show, show, here we go!

  • After wrapping up our first 20 films on the list last week, we thought it would be a good idea to do something different: take a trip to the CINEMAAAAA! This week, the guys took in the new Ridley Scott epic - Napoleon. Does Jason have a spicy hot take on one of the main performances in this film? Was the movie trying to cover too much of Napoleon's life? Why does Ridley Scott love the colour blue so much? Napoleon seems to be really into dead people? Hmm? Plus: some movie trailer talk.

  • It's the final film before the Christmas break as the hosts welcome Sharon Horwatt back to the podcast to discuss a film about the WWI Christmas Truce - Joyeux Noel. Is Diane Kruger playing a decent female character? Sharon is here to analyze! How emotionally devastating is that Christmas carols scene? How distracting is the singing? Is this a better Christmas or war film? All this and Jimmy Stewart teaching everyone a very important lesson about necrophilia on this week's episode!
     
    We will return on January 8th with our rankings/awards for the first 20 movies on the war list! Until then, enjoy some random silliness every Monday.

  • The guys get festive this week with the ostensibly Christmas-themed movie about a Japanese prison camp - Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence. Does it give this movie a wholly different, unique perspective with a Japanese director behind the camera? Is this the most homoerotic film ever made to feature no gay sex? What's the story behind Beat Takeshi? All this and a very unfortunate new sponsor in this week's episode!
     
    Next week: one more Xmas movie before year's end.

  • No Falkand War representation on the list? What ever are we to do?! Watch an obscure TV movie starring Colin Firth, you say? Done! Does this movie make it impossible to empathize with our main character? Just how good are these TV movie battle scenes? What was up with the weird and horny Pete Postlethwaite appearance? Plus: they discuss the anti-climactic ending and how to make it better. Hire them, Hollywood!

  • Back to the list this week with Samuel Fuller's racially diverse and controversial Korean War tale The Steel Helmet. Did this movie inspire an infamous Steven Spielberg character? How did the government and military react to this film openly discussing Japanese internment camps? Is this movie sensitive to other religions? The answer might surprise you! You won't believe the discussion in response to #3. Sorry, guys... Buzzfeed is a new sponsor and they pay well.

Just how gosh-golly hokum can Gary Cooper get before Brendan's head explodes? And he won an Oscar for this?! How much did Hacksaw Ridge borrow from this film? Just how valuable is bottomland? All this and a bunch of extras getting wet for Walter Brennan in this week's episode!

  • This week, the guys go to China for a very disturbing film about some terrifying real human tragedy - City of Life and Death. Did this movie nearly get banned for just portraying one Japanese character in a sympathetic light? Is this the most disturbing movie on the podcast thus far? What makes John Rabe such an interesting and conflicted character? All this and more in this week's episode. Trigger warning ahead: there is some disturbing violent and sexual content in the film that is discussed.
