It’s that time again. Time for a brand new episode of The Flickcast. This week we’re doing our “Being Thankful” episode just in time for the Monday following Thanksgiving.
Better late than never, right? Plus, it is Cyber Monday, after all. So . . . On this week’s episode Chris and Joe talk about, you guessed it, what they’re thankful for this year and in general. Naturally, the talk turns to various films, television and pop culture and, sadly, spills over onto COVID a bit too. What did you expect?
Some of these non-covid topics include Star Wars, Star Trek, The Mandalorian, Netflix movies and series such as Enola Holmes and The Queen’s Gambit and lots of music and more. And, of course the usual even more.
It’s a packed episode chock full of thankful goodness and positive positivity. Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for listening.

It’s time for a brand new episode of The Flickcast. It’s a great day.
On this week’s episode Chris and Joe discuss a bunch of stuff including Marvel’s The Inhumans, Star Trek: Discovery, the CBS All Access business model, The Orville, the dangers of “Fandom” and a whole lot more. Plus, the usual even more.
No beer selections again this week because the boys are recording in the morning again. And drinking in the morning is, well, probably a bad idea. Probably. Anyway, if you dodrink beer (or whatever), try to buy local. It helps and it’s just a nice thing to do.
Picks this week include Chris’ pick of the Netflix series Manhunt: Unabomber and Joe’s pick of Star Trek: Discovery.

Hey there, it’s time for a brand new episode of The Flickcast. It’s a great day.
On this week’s episode Chris and Joe discuss a bunch of new stuff including the new season of Game of Thrones, more on Star Trek: Discovery and more. Plus, the usual even more. And make sure to check out our Producer/Editor Michael Seidl’s award-winning short film The Tortoise and the Eagle. He and his team did a great job.
No beer selections again this week because the boys are recording in the morning again. And drinking in the morning is, well, probably a bad idea. Anyway, if you do drink beer (or whatever), try to buy local. Picks this week include Chris’ pick of the original Star Trek series episode The Doomsday Machine and Joe’s pick of the game West of Loathing.

Fans of Falling Skies can expect more twists, a few answers, and plenty more questions from the third season of the TNT show. We had a chance to chat with series star Noah Wyle, newcomer Doug Jones, and executive producer Remi Aubuchon about the return of the aliens vs. humans drama this June.
Calling this the toughest shoot he has ever done, Wyle, who plays former history professor Tom Mason, is extremely proud of how the season has come together. Indeed, there is a lot of change this season with Tom, who at the end of season two wanted to stay with Second Mass. When we see him next, it is seven months later, he is the President of the United States, and he has formed an alliance with a new race of aliens, known as the Volm, and their leader, Cochise (Jones).
Tom and Anne’s (Moon Bloodgood) baby is also born, his sons Matt (Maxim Knight) and Ben (Connor Jessup) enjoy more independence, and his eldest son Hal (Drew Roy) deals with the eye worm that is causing him to lose control of himself and possibly be used as a spy for the enemy aliens.
But what happened in those seven months and can the Volm really be trusted? Wyle says audiences will have to tune in to find out.

Before you read on, you should know we’re big fans of Don Coscarelli here at The Flickcast. If you’ve never seen his films like Bubba Ho-Tep or anything from his Phantasm series, you should really consider going out right now and finding them. Go ahead, we’ll wait.
Now that you have a better appreciation for Coscarelli’s brand of horror, you’re in for a treat. Turns out Magnet Releasing has picked up the rights to his latest horror opus called John Dies at the End. Described as a “phantasmagoric new sci-fi/horror film,” John Dies at the End stars Paul Giamatti, Chase Williamson, Rob Mayes, Clancy Brown, Glynn Turman and Doug Jones.
The film centers around Giamatti’s character and his investigation into a street drug known as Soy Sauce, which promises an out-of-body experience with each hit, causing users to drift across time and dimensions. Unfortunately, when some return, they are no longer human.
Check out more info from the official press release after the break. Look for John Dies at the End to hit VOD (and hopefully a few theaters) in December.

I’d almost forgotten that the last time Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn teamed up was in 2004’s Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, and if you asked me why I like that movie so much and am pretty indifferent on The Watch, I’d be hard-pressed to explain why. Both have very simple premises, feature largely improv performers, and The Watch has the added benefit of Jonah Hill — playing a younger, more broad version of Walter Sobchek.
Then again, Dodgeball had cleverer jokes, Vaughn in the lead (instead of Stiller), and Rip Torn, who trumps pretty much everything in the universe. It also seemed to be having a lot more fun. The Watch, on the other hand, is kind of like the unpopular kid at the playground that’s consigned itself to the tilt-a-whirl: functioning on autopilot and trying to find bits of entertainment when they come. Even the trailer has no qualms revealing the twist of aliens coming to earth, and since there’s not much else after that, for the first half hour or so, we follow Stiller around waiting for the movie to get going.

As technology gets smaller and cheaper, making films is getting easier and easier. But in a market lousy with low-budget indies, it’s not always easy to score well known actors. This wasn’t a problem for Mark Vadik.
The writer/director of Cyrus: Mind of a Serial Killer somehow managed to wrangle several seasoned actors for parts of various size, including Brian Krause (Charmed), Danielle Harris (multiple Halloween films), Doug Jones (Hellboy), and the irreplaceable Lance Henriksen. As you watch the film, the obvious question that comes to mind is, How?
Cyrus is a frame story in which TV journalist Maria Sanchez, looking for fodder for her tabloid news show, interviews a man who claims to know the identity of a local serial killer. He tells her and her cameraman the sad tale of Cyrus, a former soldier who, when his marriage and business fell apart, turned to murder and cannibalism.

Now that Marvel has its own movie studio, it’s time for the House of Ideas to try out some fresh ones on the big screen. Sure, we all know the Iron Man and Thor sequels will make a billion dollars, but Marvel needs to think long term and use this opportunity to branch out.
Black Panther has never ranked in readership with Marvel’s flagship titles, but the movie-going audience is more diverse. A superhero film featuring a strong black cast could bring in a whole new audience to comic book movies. And the hardcore fans will always be along for the ride so long as the movie stays true to the source material.
Of course, in order to do that, the studio has to nail the casting.

Most people that go to see District 9 this weekend will get to see Legion’s far less violent green band trailer. But recently released online was the far more interesting “Red Band” preview of the post-apocalyptic action-thriller — courtesy of the folks at Trailer Addict.
The film’s premise, which is quite interesting, goes something like this: “When God loses faith in Mankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity’s only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael (played by Paul Bettany).
The film looks to be something like Constantine meets Demon Knight, which is a pretty cool idea. Legion hits theaters on January 22, 2010.
Check out the probably NSFW trailer after the jump.
