War Machine Vs. War Horse

We travel back to the good old days of courtship... ...when Orson Welles could still rock a deep V and at the height of his career. No, not making CITIZEN KANE but instead being married to his co-star in THE LADY FROM SHANGAI, the great Rita Hayworth. Obviously. To kick off our trilogy on protagonists out kicking their coverage in like we look at another troubled Welles production which leads into another obvious fact... that he was the Zack Snyder of his time.

If you didn't think Quentin Tarantino could ever shut up about movies... ... how about two OTHER guys who can't shut up about HIM talking movies?? Huh? HUH?? Worth a dollar? We certainly hope so. On TRILOGY IN THEORY we've talked about the desire to read more and one of the books both of us have been enjoying recently is Mr. Tarantino's CINEMA SPECULATION. I say enjoying because for our Patreon supporters we are going to produce an episode for each chapter which discusses a film the author into the filmmaker that he is today. Follow along at our Patreon page as once a month (although sometimes more) we read AND watch the following films: Bullitt Dirty Harry Deliverance The Getaway The Outfit Sisters Daisy Miller Taxi Driver Rolling Thunder Paradise Alley Escape From Alcatraz Hardcore The Funhouse We hope you join us by supporting our Patreon Movie Book Club episodes and not deciding to read!

Theatrical movies are back! Which is to say that the old men shouting at clouds FINALLY get a franchise reboot that speaks to their hyper-specific demographic for peak nostalgia. No offense to CREED 3 and JOHN WICK 4. All the offense in the world to SHAZAM 2. We finish out our trip to New York City with Ghostface taking the subway and one host finally knows one of the new SCREAM requel cast members name. Mainly because Jenna Ortega was on a Netflix show that he didn't watch. Still... it's progress! Make sure to come back next week for our Patreon exclusive book club episode on the DIRTY HARRY chapter from CINEMA SPECULATION by Quentin Tarantino!

When you want to see Gremlins take over Manhattan... ...but the studio didn't really want to pay for it. Another theme is forming as we continue to look at horror movies in New York City (or Vancouver.) This time around we try to figure out if we were ever the right age for Joe Dante's filmography, it is revealed that THE SANDLOT was actually a trilogy and one host's distaste for Alexandra Daddario befuddles the other host AND THE WORLD. As the great auteur Chris Columbus would say... kill Gizmo. Enjoy! We hope you join us by supporting our Patreon Movie Book Club episodes and not deciding to read!

It's a long boat ride to New York City... ...but thankfully you have this podcast to keep you company. In which one host calls this series part of the Mt. Rushmore of horror while ALSO calling this the worst film to ever be featured on this very podcast! The other host is befuddled that there is such a thing as The Tommy Jarvis Saga. And he missed out! So this podcast is basically some Crystal Lake Memories for the fans and uninitiated alike as we join the chorus of complaints about the lack of Manhattan in... JASON TAKES MANHATTAN. But that's what you have a TRILOGY IN THEORY for as this is merely the first part in our horrific journey to New York City!

The finest of the Emma Stone/Ryan Gosling dating trilogy. Sure LA LA LAND won Best Picture for thirty seconds but then there is GANGSTER SQUAD. Which leaves us with this ensemble film starring Steve Carell, Julianne Moore, Marisa Tomei, Lio Tipton and Kevin Bacon as the bad guy... but not really. THANKFULLY there is no ambassador of the movie posters full of squares in Greg Kinnear. For that would be death. So come with us as we celebrate the death of our First Date Trilogy and move on to... Jason Takes Manhattan? In March... love is truly dead. But TRILOGY IN THEORY lives. We hope you join us by supporting our Patreon Movie Book Club episodes and not deciding to read!

An actual movie from a trilogy on Trilogy in Theory? We make exceptions for any entry in Richard Linklater's BEFORE trilogy and this time it's BEFORE SUNRISE! However as the producers of this independent podcast we can't pass up on an opportunity to listen to one of our more popular episodes when we covered the second part of Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke's adventures... BEFORE SUNSET. https://trilogyintheory.pinecast.co/episode/0fbe47144ca6429d/before-sunset-2004- I'll wait a moment for you to catch your podcast breath after that masterpiece and spoiler alert... we top that episode as one host calls this the ultimate cheat movie while working at a video store and your other host had to get married to finally enjoy this romance without any cynicism. It's beautiful. It's romantic. It's the latest episode of TRILOGY IN THEORY. We hope you join us by supporting our Patreon Movie Book Club episodes and not deciding to read!

With Woody Allen... it's best to just get the kissing over with. Okay, that was poor form. Maybe. However the legacy ANNIE HALL has had on the romcom can not be denied... even if it does involve sacrificing the peak charms of Diane Keaton to making out with that... comedian. We hope to take your mind off that by INSTEAD imagining the first date and first kiss from one of your hosts as he cites this very movie as being a go-to in his playbook of courtship! The other host just hates on THE WEDDING SINGER and Billy Idol for some reason. Enjoy! We hope you join us by supporting our Patreon Movie Book Club episodes and not deciding to read!

Horror adjacent but still a generous helping of black humor. That would be a description of TRILOGY IN THEORY but we suppose we can share some of that thinly veiled acclaim with Ralph Fiennes and company in THE MENU. One of the few adult-targeted movies to have some degree of financial success in the fall of 2022 we sit down for seconds of eating the rich and discuss just how weird looking Anya Taylor-Joy remains.

We are experts on Cate Blanchett performances. Which is to say that we think they are mostly pretty good. Good job, Ms. Blanchett. Well... except for that TRUTH movie about Dan Rather. That one was pretty bad, CATE. But Tár is great! Well... one host thinks so. The other is greatly insulted at writer/director Todd Field's views on video game music. Insert Homer Simpson NERDDDDDS gif here. Or a Youtube clip if you are feeling frisky. Which you shouldn't. Not when supporting Tár. Tár is too frisky.

We present a resolution for the new year... ...and that is a simple request to find the little square on a streaming service (currently Amazon Prime, you're welcome) and enjoy the old-fashioned thrill of discovery as Mark Rylance schools us all in THE OUTFIT! Now granted we fully support you doing this only after you've had your fill of watching GLASS ONION on repeat, because Netflix needs all that new ad money to pay for it. However there is a joy in the unknown. Especially when one of the hosts knew of this great film for most of 2022... and his idiot co-host did not. Enjoy!

Rian Johnson Strikes Back... ...with another KNIVES OUT entry and OF COURSE it features the return of Ana de Armas as she finds yet another rich liberal family of condescending jerks and challenges them to a laser sword fight. Just as the Internet drew it up. Fortunately that is not the case as Daniel Craig is the lone returning character to GLASS ONION and this time the target is a Musky group of sycophants enjoying a murder mystery game all in pursuit of... an iPad.

It's Christmas season which means we should be watching IN BRUGES. Or more likely IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. However we choose instead to continue our look back at our fandom for 2022 with a brand spanking new to HBO Max (though you should have watched this in theaters, jerk) THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN. Martin McDonagh reminds us all that time is limited... and yet here we are podcasting. And here you are listening. Or maybe just reading the show notes. And deciding against listening. Jerk.

This Rian Johnson mockery will not stand... ...well, maybe for this episode. But just you wait until the end of the month, dear listeners! Just don't tell Netflix we actually watched a movie in theaters. ANYWAY we are back with our own version of a "requel" as it was just our last trilogy that featured the black sheep of the SCREAM franchise... and here we are with another entry. 2022 was a decent year at the movies. But really we just want to feel the comforts of childhood again. A place where we can feel like the experts. We may not know who this new Wednesday Addams is but man are we happy to see Neve Campbell back in action. Even though they wouldn't pay her for the next one. Alas, progress must wait until 2023. Or 2024. Enjoy our look back at 2022 at the movies! Support what we do with bonus content and early episodes on Patreon including CLERKS 3 which didn't make our cut for a trilogy on triples!

We accepted our punishment and have reached the end. Again. And again. Our reexamination of the black sheep of highly respected film trilogies (okay maybe not GHOSTBUSTERS) has reached its unnatural conclusion as we kick THE GODFATHER PART III, SCREAM 3 and GHOSTBUSTERS (2016) one last time while they are down... and have a pretty good time doing it. This may be our coldest take in a medium that demands something spicy and controversial. What can we say? We think these three movies still stink. Enjoy!

Answer the Call? The Female Ghostbusters? We got all the clickable comments. Two men who are decidedly not beholden to the original GHOSTBUSTERS film take on THE hot button issue of 2016... Paul Feig's GHOSTBUSTERS. Notice how we give all the credit to a man there? Does that help? DOES IT? Unfortunately it doesn't. As much as we want to root for Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig's cosplay this just ends up being the saddest episode ever. We mention STRANGER THINGS a few times... does that help? No. No, it does not. Enjoy! Support what we do with bonus content and early episodes on Patreon including CLERKS 3 which didn't make our cut for a trilogy on triples!

Jay and Silent Bob learned how to overstay their welcome from the SCREAM franchise. This seems like an appropriate lesson for TRILOGY IN THEORY as our little podcast just hit 100 episodes. Spoiler alert: we don't plan on stopping anytime soon because we have yet to make any money off of this crap. Unlike the SCREAM franchise which still is held in high regards by your hosts... though maybe not this entry. At least there is Parker Posey playing the best Courtney Cox in the entire series. AT LEAST WE HAVE THAT. And 100 episodes. You're welcome. Support what we do with bonus content and early episodes on Patreon including an excuse for us to discuss the absolute classic (?)

We question just how much Francis Ford Coppola values family... ...and how little he valued Al Pacino's hair in THE GODFATHER PART III. Or is it The GODFATHER CODA: THE DEATH OF MICHAEL CORLEONE? Take your pick for we remain decidedly unhappy. Or are we happy in our unhappiness with the finale to the Corleone family saga? Because of this and search engine optimization #ReleaseTheSnyderCut gets mentioned and to a lesser extent our shared love of SCREAM 2. Which at least mentions The Godfather sequels. Did I mention that I'm going to see SCREAM 2 the 25th anniversary theatrical showing this weekend? I've earned this. For this represents 100 episodes of TRILOGY IN THEORY. And I also watched THE GODFATHER PART III: CODA: THE DEATH OF MICHAEL CORLEONE: BUT NOT REALLY. It was fun!
