Episode 651: October ReFlicktions Night

The weather is crisper, the nights are longer, the movies are movie'er... and it's time for ReFlicktions!  In a rare instance, d$ actually has more movies that Mikey, with #XLessDrEarl coming in with all the movies he's seen since July.  

Some of the discussions include Matt Walsh's doc - including whether it's a "mockumentary"...  Keenan Thompson's house buying misery... a double dose of classic Disney... d$'s 100 Yearly 100 movie goal... #XLessDrEarl catching up on tornado movies... Mikey's Joker obsession... 

Plus, assigned films from previous months, a new batch of assigned films (with Dealer's Choice!), and our latest Top 5 of the Year!

DCMS Ep 650: Ooh Ooh Witchy Deucecast

 In the small but still somewhat cool milestone of our 650th episode, Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl kick off the month of October with the first of three horror themed episodes -- which one, you ask?  Its the Witch One, as a matter of fact.  See what we did there?

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!

Episode 647: Our All Time 10 Ten Favorite Films

It's the unofficial end to the summer series, dropping a day or two before summer actually ends -- but we waited until #XLessDrEarl was back in studio!  And here he is, joining d$ and Mikey as they count down their all time 10 favorite films ever (and give 11 thru 20 later on in the show)

Mikey and d$ have a recap of the All Time Top 10 given in Eps 214 and 218 (back in March of 2016), but for #XLessDrEarl, its a brand new list that none of us had ever heard.

And after a lengthy discussion on the films of Ernest, we dive in to the all time top ten... of course there is some crossover, and a little movement from previous lists to now -- and only a smattering of pretention.  You'll hear about Harry Ford and Michael Mann. Some Tom Hanks and Audrey Hepburn.  Morgan Freeman and Play It Again Sam... films from 1942 all the way up to 2010.

Episode 637: My Favorite Summer... The Comedies

My favorite summer continues and this week, it's time to get funny with the ha-ha... because comedies are one of the most important genre of all. Because we love to laugh at the stupid, at the smart, at the dark, at the iconic, and at the silly. 

Returning to the show after being our co-announcer and narrator at this year's Deucie Awards, The Amish Girl herself Jenn Novotny brings all the smile and humor... as well as a rant on an innocent actress and her Oscar winning performance.

First up, a little Denzel game, and catching up with Jenn and her world travels. 

Then, Mikey, d$, and #XLessDrEarl, along with Jenn, give their own top ten fave comedies of all time, from movies they grew up with to recent flicks to the legendary to the downright dumb.  

Mo Money?  You're welcome. 

I.E., E.G., F.U.

Then, the Top Ten Fave Dramatic Films... everyone has their own description, as some movies may be more of a dramedy than a drama... or maybe it's listed under drama for one, but will be in another category for another.

Legendary films like The Godfather make a few lists, 90s capers like True Romance is discussed, a tragedy unfolds in one film, a fort is defending in another, and movies from as far back as 1966 are covered, all the way up to last year.

Episode 632: My Favorite Summer... The Classics

 It's finally time for the summer and with it, the summer series at The Deucecast Movie Show! For the fourth... or fifth, who's counting... your fave movie podcast that you, but probably not any of your friends and definitely not most girls you know, are listening to is giving you a theme for the summer, a series of episodes intertwined with a common theme... this time, it's "My Favorite Summer". 
 
And for the summer, Dave, Mikey, and #XLessDrEarl will be giving you the top tens of their favorites across movie genres, like comedies, dramas, animation, and more, and tonight, the Classics.  And of course, to rank the classics is our fellow cinephile and film snob, the pride of Toccoa Falls, Garrison Ryfun!

First, a little round of Movie Trivia from The Book, and then, diving right in... all of our all time fave films from all the years, from the early days of film up until the cut-off of 1969. 

Legendary directors like Wilder, Hitchcock, Fleming, and Lumet... incredible performances from the likes of Cary, Stewart, Bogie, Audrey... and sweeping plantation epics to tiny jury rooms to creepy hotels to pool halls.
