Jarhead

Junehead rolls on with the final film in the Jarhead Quadrilogy - Jarhead: Law of Return! Late-90s teen icon Devon Sawa is a pilot who I assume has a name but I don't remember what it is. He gets shot down and no, this is not Behind Enemy Lines. Oh, if only it was that film.  Listen or don't - what are we even doing anymore? Next week: A special surprise. Questions? Comments?

It's the most wonderful time of the year: Junehead. It all starts off with the movie that IS on Paste Magazine's list - Jarhead. The guys talk all about a movie that hits very differently 20 years later, Foxx and Sarsgaard's highlight performances, Jason's "edging" analogy and much more. Next week: JUNEHEAD CONTINUES.

Ah, Mel Gibson is back again. This time... in actor form. Yes, it's Peter Weir's Gallipoli, a film about two Australian hetero life-mates who really like running and one likes war more than the other. Will one convince the other? Is the poster a giant spoiler? Does this movie treat Aboriginals with respect? Find out this week! Next week: Come and See Ivan. Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

They say there's a hero to save us, and they (Chad) may be right, but, dang, it ain't Dennis Quaid in 1998's Savior. No sir. No siree Bob. I don't like it.

We perk things up a little bit this week with an action/adventure war caper starring Ol' Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra. Yes, it's Von Ryan's Express, a 1965 film with lots of practical effects and stunt work that is, unfortunately, mostly a lost art these days. The guys also discuss Sinatra as an actor, characters that keep screwing up, the goofy tone and music choices and much more. Also: MORE TRAINS. Next week: Bosnia! Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

In 1943, Nazi Forces occupied the Soviet territory of Byelorussia (modern day Belarus). Unleashing their fanatical SS divisions - the true believers and the unrepentant criminals - they brought violence, misery and death to the local population. This week, having experienced 1985's Come and See... join the fellas as they peer through the cracks of history and experience the tiniest sliver of that horror. Next week: Ol' Blue Eyes Questions?

We are finally back to the list that you know and love to talk about #40 - a little WWII caper called Play Dirty. Is this the first movie with a gang of ruffians that ACTUALLY features some legitimately disgusting criminals? Is this movie really about a series of recurring failures?

Sometimes when you're watching a lot of war movies, the darkness and the suffering and the death and the mud and the blood and... everything... it can wear on you. Every now and then it's nice to be reminded that despite it all, despite seeing the worst humanity can muster... the human spirit can still triumph in ways big and small.

And now it's time for something completely similar, folks. AKA we did another Ang Lee movie that one time. Anyhoo, this week the fellers discuss Ang Lee's wartime satire (?) Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk. Is this a case of a source material's tone being lost in the adaptation? Why is Steve Martin in this movie? How does Vin Diesel go up against expectations and give the best performance in this movie (not a knock, it's a good one)?! Filming at 120 frames per second - why? Did we need the romance that maybe should've been more obviously satirical instead of a seemingly straight-forward subplot? All this and more in this week's episode! Next week: Monks.
