A.I. EP. 337: “Here’s To The Fools Who Dream” - La La Land 10th Anniversary

We are still Going Ga Ga For Gosling and have come to a film where he was nominated for a Best Actor Academy Award 10 years ago, La La Land. It was a great time rewatching this musical and feeling all the feels with Gosling and Stone. Rob’s best friend from Kindergarten, Timmy St.Sauver, came back to give his thoughts and it was really really fun. Hope y’all enjoy!

As we keep going Ga Ga For Gosling, we’ve decided to watch and chat about his super dark film from 2011, Drive. He didn’t have to say much in this one for us to be blown away. Another guy who felt similarly to us is our good buddy and recurring guest, Neil Ghosh. He had a lot to say about this film and we enjoyed hearing his takes. Enjoy! 

Andy Weir has done it again, he's made an incredible novel that turned into an amazing movie for the second time. We both loved The Martian and are just as happy with the Ryan Gosling-led Project Hail Mary. We got our favorite musical duo of all time, The Hound + The Fox, to come on and give their wonderful insights. Big fan of them and a big fan of this episode. Enjoy!

It’s the 40th anniversary of what many have said is the best basketball film ever made, Hoosiers. We figured with March Madness coming to an end, this would be the time to chat about it. Our good friend, Luke Pierce, just so happens to be a Hoosier and this film meant a great deal to him growing up. We had a blast chatting with him and hope you enjoy this episode.

It’s the 20th anniversary of Accepted, a film that we feel like most people haven’t seen. Whenever we bring it up on the pod, nobody seems to remember it. However, when we brought it up to Nate Stone, his eyes lit up and he said “Ask Me About My Weiner!” He’s a real one. We had a good time chatting about this, hope you enjoy listening to it!

Paul Thomas Anderson won his first Oscars this year and he went all in with Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture. The two of us sat down and broke down what we thought of it and had a great time doing it. Hope you enjoy!

We've seen most of the nominated movies and we make our predictions for all of the categories. You can fill out your own ballot and send our way and see if your prediction game is better than ours! If you're a Patron of ours and you get the most correct, you can make us watch a movie you love! Good luck and hope everyone you want to win wins!

It's a Tom Hanks film from the 80's, which of course means we had to call up Abe Sword. We've had him on for The 'Burbs, Joe Versus the Volcano, Big and now The Money Pit. This home renovation nightmare of a story turns 40 years old this year and we had a great time chatting about it. Enjoy!

One of the hardest times we've ever laughed in a movie theater was during the movie Hall Pass. We watched it with a couple of our buddies, one of them was Brandon Miller, who's been on the pod a few times before and was happy to come back and chat about this hilarious movie. Hope you all enjoy!

35 years ago a cinematic masterpiece was created, King Ralph. Maybe that's a little too high praise but we sure liked this movie when we were kids. We brought back to the pod a man who watched this movie many times with Rob, his dad, Fred Lundquist. Always a good time having Fred on the show. Hope you all enjoy!
