Podcast #4




Our return to podcasting was epic with this hour and fifteen minute show. Joining Sergio and I, was Michael "The DVD Guy" Benson for a group review of P.T. Anderson's debut film "Hard Eight," afterwards Michael discusses Inarritu's "Biutiful" and Godard's "Alphaville." We take a break and then are joined by my wife Caroline, who leads us in an analytical breakdown of the Tennessee Williams film adaptation of "The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore," Joseph Losey's "Boom!" We then cap the show off with two reviews apiece, Sergio discusses "Tesis" and "Greenberg," Caroline reviews "Hawk Jones" and "Leonard Part 6," and I end the show with my takes on "The Knack" and "The Limey"

Podcast #4 Hard Eight, Biutiful, Alphaville, Boom!, Tesis, Greenberg, Hawk Jones, Leonard Part 6, The Knack, The Limey

Podcast #3





I took a brief hiatus from podcasting, and in my place Adam Kuntavanish was at the helm in an in-depth discussion along with Irvin Contreras, Dan DiVico and Brandon Vander Hey, on the ENTIRE Academy Award film contenders!!! I have to say, this is one polished and detailed podcast!










Podcast #2



And here we are back; Sergio and I, for our second show. I packed my gear and recorded it at his work studio in Boyle Heights. The sound quality is a bit better than the first podcast, and the overall flow is getting more natural. The movie of the night is "The Social Network," which is my first time viewing the film, and Sergio's third or fourth if I remember correctly. After discussing our contrasting views on the film, Sergio states his opinions on Ben Affleck's "The Town" and Mike Nichols' adaptation of the Joseph Heller novel "Catch-22." Afterwards I bring up my recent acquisition of a "lot" of VHS tapes I purchased from a liquidating video store, and review two of the films: Greydon Clark's ultra-schlocky "Uninvited" and Paul Verhoeven's '83 erotic drama "The Fourth Man."


Podcast #1




This is the first Cinema Super Friends Podcast. It was recorded the first week of January 2011. The sound quality is a little shaky at first, but gets gradually better as the recording goes on. Though not the best, it definitely gave an idea of was to come. The podcast starts with me discussing the '69 Anthony Newley vanity project "Can Hieronymus Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness?" afterwards I'm joined by Sergio (who later became my co-host) where after a two-hour-plus intermission to watch "Black Swan" we discuss in-depth the various aspects of the film. Afterwards we each give an opinion on a film we each have recently seen, I discuss "Toy Story 3" and Sergio discusses why "Tron" isn't a great film. Enjoy!
