At the Movies with William Fletcher

Episode 164: Paddington

After a hectic and stressful week for some, there's some wholesome content this week with a discussion of the Paddington films to tie into the new film out soon. We look at the films and just the general output of Paul King.

Episode 163: The Thing

We're covering a real classic for this year's Halloween special with the main item of discussion being the 1982 classic with the 1951, Thing From Another World on one side and the 2011 prequel of the same name (which causes some annoyance to say the least from us). We also talk about poor film endings and what we find scary. Because it's the spooky time of year, you know?

Episode 162: Venom

We've had a bit of a lack of superhero podcasts this year so we're gonna tackle the Venom films which aren't even really superhero films so it barely even counts. Anyway, look forward to our impressions of the song and just general Spider-Man chatter.

Episode 161: What We Do in the Shadows: Redux

You may or may not be aware that I covered What We Do in the Shadows already in the history of the podcast but that was early on and not up to the standards of modern quality so here's a more modern look to tie into the release of the show's final season with talks on the career of Taika Waititi, New Zealand Accents and Danny Trejo somehow.

Episode 160: Joker

We're dealing with the realm of comic book films again this week but this time we're going for the far more serious (at least it sets out to be) Joker and we look at the film itself, other interpretations of the character and the future films.

Episode 159: The Godfather

We're doing another classic this week. Well, rather a trilogy of classics with a look at The Godfather and sequels but will we find the films to be worthy of this praise? 

Episode 158: Tim Burton

As opposed to doing a multiple episode run on a director's entire career, we have condensed this done to one episode (more out of time constraints than anything else) so we do a full retrospective look at Burton's entire career with talks of his various partners, the biopic genre as well as getting a bit deeper as we go on.

Episode 157: Alien Franchise: Part 2

We conclude our Alien retrospective with a look at the more controversial films in the series and we even get a contender for worst film ever covered on the podcast. 

Episode 156: Alien Franchise: Part 1

The next few episodes of the show will be massive retrospectives and this week will be the beginning of a retrospective of the Alien franchise with looks at the original 4 films as well as discussing the careers of each director and the Predator franchise.

Episode 155: SpongeBob SquarePants

After a more mature episode last week with Deadpool, we go to the opposite of the spectrum with a far more family oriented episode looking at SpongeBob SquarePants and the film franchise that has spawned from it.
