DCMS Ep 668: The Harrison Ford Top Ten

In honor of Captain America: Brave New World, your beloved Deucecast hosts make it all about one of Hollywood -- and our podcast's -- legendary figures: Harrison Ford.  Thus, it's time for the Harrison Ford Top Ten.

First up, a quick review of Captain America Brave New World - likes, dislikes, and a tease for next week's ReFlicktions.

And in a fun game, it's a round of Rotten Tomatoes with all February movies - random years, random weekends, random movie titles... and maybe the first time Charlie Chan films are mentioned. 

Finally, a complete listing of Harrison Ford's entire filmography, as d$, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl go movie by movie, title by title... sometimes blowing past them ("Journey to Shiloh"? "Zabriskie Point"??), sometimes spending a few minutes ("Star Wars"! "Blade Runner"!) and sometimes having full on discussions ("Working Girl"!) 

And at the end, the official Deucecast Harrison Ford Top Ten. 

Also... does anyone know where to find "Killroy Was Here" on streaming?

Episode 667: The Oscar Snub Tourney

 In a world full of Oscar winners, there is also a large population of worthy performers who never had their own Academy Award moments.  Whether being nominated one time, or seven times, or no times, nary a winning ballot with their name on it.

Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl invite in Miss Independent himself, Jeremy Burgeydoodle, to discuss twenty four dudes and twenty three dames, all with bodies of excellent work. Actors from Ed Harris in "The Right Stuff" to Michael B Jordan's "Fruitvale Station" to d$'s girlfriend Amy Adams in "American Hustle" to Margot Robbie in... well, something good. 

Idris! Harrison! ScarJo! Mia! And so many more great thespians, all with one question - "Why don't they have an Oscar yet?", and tonight, we find out who truly defines that question.

Plus, the 8th Annual Burgentine's Day commences, as Jeremy discusses his assigned films - "About Time", "Some Kind of Wonderful", "Notting Hill", "She's the One", and "A Single Man"... who wins and who falls to the bottom this year? 

Episode: The Deucecast Afterlife

Inching ever closer to the monumental episode #700, Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are here to discuss not just life in the movies... but AFTERLIFE in the movies.  The coolest, scariest, most unique, or best (subjective) portrayals of the Heavenly Realm... or the Hot Basement... and maybe even some purgatory in between.

First, the Angelic Trio checks out the box office in 2024, with a round of Box Office Mojo - figuring out what films made the most money... domestically of course (because we aren't communists), and in the calendar year.

Then, a list of films featuring the Big Guy Upstairs, Ol' No Shoulders down below, a few angels, a few demons and more.  From Bill and Ted to Swayze to Albert Brooks to some Pixar Dr. Earl has never seen, it's a fun list. A blessed list, we hope. Thoughts and prayers. 

Has to be blessed with Malick, right?  Right? 

Finally, a quick look at the new film "Companion", and both d$ and Mikey's recommendations. 

Episode 665: The Greatest ReFlicktions in Pod

It's the start of a new year, which means it's time for a new round of Movie ReFlicktions, as Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are back to ReFlickt'd all the movies they've seen in the last several weeks!

A double dose of Liam Neeson kicks off the reviews, with Producer Tommy's offspring in a Lifetime Movie, The Don' biopic, a cartoon Hobbit, Jerry Buts is back with his thievery den, and Dr. Earl goes old school with some Javert and Jean Valjean. Also, d$ continues his love for his Hollywood beloved, but fears for the choices being made.

A slate of documentaries cover everything from Superman to Kermit to The Beach Boys to Michael McDonald's sound in Yacht Rock music. Plus a random chat about young Hollywood and much more.

Episode 664: The NOT 2024 Top Ten

The review of 2024 films are in full swing, but first there is the annual look back at the movies seen last year that were NOT FROM last year. Its the NOT 2024 Top Ten, where we highlight films worthy of a second discussion because they just impacted us so much.

And for the 3rd year running on this particular episode, Dave, Mikey, and #TwitterlessDrEarl welcome in Friend of the Show, streaming live from the freezing metropolis somewhere in Bainbridge, Wyoming, that is one Jacob "Roth from Wyoming."

Together, the foursome discuss their top ten faves of the year from all over the place, as far back as the early 20s and 30s to all the way through the 60s and 70s and in 2010s and 2020s... assigned movies come into play as films others were asked to watch appear in various Top Tens, while Burgess recommended movies keep coming up as well. 

Mikey is loving some old Gena Rowland and Walter Matthau as an action star, while #XLessDrEarl digs into more music docs, Dave revisits a Hallmark fave, and Roth finally sets sail on the ship of dreams. Plus, why did Green Book get so much hate, Eastwood represents (even if he is a d-bag of a romantic partner) and Powers Boothe makes another list.

Also... Garrison makes a random appearance with lots of Chucky Grodin love.

Episode 663: 2024's Surprise & Delights

 It's become an annual tradition that started with d$ wanting an excuse to talk about Jackie Chan's "The Foreigner"... a movie not worth of a Top Ten of the year appearance, but worthy of discussion... a surprise, nay, an absolute delight. Hence, the annual "Surprise & Delight" episode!

These are movies that surprised and delighted Mikey, d$, #XLessDrEarl, and even Friend of the Show, Miss Independent himself, Jeremy Burgess.

First up, some chatter about Eric Roberts' new autobiography, plus thoughts on the indie movie scene. Then, Jason Statham's IP'ness... Jake Gyllenhaal's "Road House"... Hugh Grant's winning villainy... d$ getting it wrong, then getting it Hot n Frosty right... plus love for Glen Powell and admiration for Sebastian Stan.

Then, 2025's Burgentine's Day commences, as assignments are given from the the crew and a few friends...

Episode 662: The 2025 Movie Auction

It's that time of the year, when the annual Movie Auction takes place... and by "the annual", we mean the second one we've ever done! 

In a concept borrowed from The Big Picture Podcast (all nods and love to Amanda Dobbins, Chris Ryan, and Sean Fennessey), Mikey and d$ are joined by Friends of the Show Garrison "Pride of Kennesaw" Ryfun and Roth from Wyoming to fill out their roster of films for 2025.

Everyone has a proverbial $1000 to work with, as various movies are put on the auction block and bid for - with the intentions of getting the movies that will make the most money domestically, as well as will get both Oscar love in early 2026.

The big ones are all hear -- Fantastic Four, Avatar, Wicked, and Superman included -- plus some surprises, like live action Stitch and Toothless, a Peruvian Paddington, more dinosaurs, and Glen Powell running.

A Rotten Tomatoes game determines the draft order, and will Roth go rogue again?? 

Episode 661: Wicked December ReFlicktions

HAPPY NEW YEAR from all of us guys here at The Deucecast Movie Show!  2025 is here, and we are anxiously awaiting Mickey 17, Fantastic Four: The First Steps, Thunderbolts, more Avatar, and whatever else ridiculousness the movie year will bring us...

...but first, we have to put 2024 to bed, at least in terms of movies seen. Thus, our final ReFlicktions show of the year! 

First, d$ finds some movie "white whales", including his beloved Katie Heigl... Dr Earl goes all in on music docs... our former show producer's offspring makes a movie... Mikey works on Oscar hopefuls, but doesn't love the latest Disney offering... d$ fills a 100 movie goal... they go all in on Nosferatu... and both Hallmark and Lifetime Movie Network are repped in the same episode...

Episode 660: The 2024 Christmas Gifts (and our Lumps of Coal!)

For the 10th straight year, Mikey and d$ are giving away the Gifts of Christmas!  #XLessDrEarl has been joining the ep for many years now, and as Kaufman makes the Christmas Ep her home annually, so goes Garrison "Pride of Dahlonega" Ryfun with Christmas Gifts... and this year, we combine it with our annual Lumps of Coal ep!

So first, we highlight the lowlights of the year... films that didn't just quite resonate with us. Some from good directors, some with good scripts, and even some with great casts -- but movies that fell flat for one reason or another... and leave it to Dr. Earl to bring the big names to the list.

Then, after we bring the negative, we look at the positive, giving some great gifts all around -- to our fave actors, to our fave directors, even to studios to get them a little help.  Plus, a few movies seen on behalf of others... and the first tangible gift ever given in a Christmas Gifts episode!

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! 

Episode 659: The Best Christmas Movie Draft Ever

Two voices always emerge every December, even if they haven't been heard on the show all year... first, The Cheetah Girls, reminding us that it is, in fact, a Marshmallow World... and second, the beloved Carnegie Hall headliner herself, Jennifer Kaufman... and it's now that very time!

In this episode, Mikey and d$ welcome in Friend of the Show Roth from Wyoming and the aforementioned Jenny Kauf, not only to catch up a little, but also to do our very first Christmas Movie Draft.

Picking films to fit into 7 categories - Movies with Santa... RomComs... Christmas Comedies... Christmas Classic films (anything from the 20th Century, really)... Unconventional holiday films... Short films (60 minutes or less)... and Wild Card... each of the foursome picks and drafts movies to their own lineup, in an effort to have the best Christmas Film lineup of the show!

And you decide -- let us know on X or in our DeuceCord which movie list you think won the day! 

DCMS Classic: Episode 358

Because, you know, Life, this week we present a classic ep from the Deucecast Movie Show archives... its Christmas Gifts 2018, first released on December 19th, 2018, with Mikey, Earl, d$, and a returning Clay Shaver... 

The original show notes:

But joining Mikey, Dave, and #Twitterless Dr Earl, is Friend of the Show, back for his fourth Christmas Gifts episode, "No Just" Clay Shaver!

A little chit chat and catch up on movies and documentaries, and then the guys start handing out the merth and merry of Christmas gifts.

Amongst those opening Christmas gifts underneath the Deucecast Movie Show tree include Disney head honcho Bob Iger... busybody Tiffany Haddish... a Netflix Oscar of major proportions... Jennifer Garner getting more serious... Rian Johnson a real non-sci fi franchise... and much, much more.

Oh, and Clay has a new idea for the masses along the lines of his legendary 30 year reboot rule.

 He's one of the last real superstars, and last real movie stars that we've had in Hollywood, and no, we aren't talking about our friend Jeremy Burgess...

We are talking one Thomas Mapother IV, aka, Tom Cruise, and it's time for the show to do our official Tom Cruise Top 10.  Mikey and d$ are joined, as per usual, by #XLessDrEarl and a big movie fan, the Pride of Dahlonega, Spawn of The Voice of Valdosta, Lil Garrison Ryfun to count them down.

#XLessDrEarl was called away to a patient found in a bathtub of ice with no kidneys and is doing the proper surgery now -- but stepping into the pretentious spot, Miss Independent himself, the Burgerler, Jeremy Burgess.

The rules are simple... after playing a quick Box Office Mojo game, in a snake style draft, the guys select horror and scary movies from across Hollywood's years, filling out a list that will ultimately get a movie from the 1960s or previous... the 70s... the 80s... the 90s... the 2000s... the 2010s... and 2020 until current date.  Some are pretty easy to pick, others take some strategy, but overall, Mikey, d$, and Burgess are all asking you to vote THEIR Lineup the best of all -- so make sure you cast your vote either in the Discord or on @TheDeucecast on X.com! 

And at the end of the show, Mikey pays off his annual venture into scary movies, MikeTober, plus a rundown on the streaming status of "Don't Die"

First up, random chatter about Joker Flop de Flop (honestly, I'm not looking up whatever that crap is called) and even some Megalopolis convo at some point, then the October Birthday Movies!  

Then, digging into our Top Five... the Top Five Witches in Movies. From the animated to the partly animated/real life, to the scary freaky, to the comical... and even the sort of kind of but not really witches. 

Then, it's time for MikeTober, as Garrison "The Pride of Albany" Ryfun and Miss Independent Jeremy Burgess join d$ and Dr Earl in offering movies for Mikey to see -- and possibly be crowned the 2024 MikeTober Champ!
