Mayfair Theatre

Andrew, Lee, and Josh get amazingly off-track, confused of the timeline, realize they shouldn't speak to each other except for on the podcast, and barely talk about upcoming movies. The annual Oscars party, and the Ottawa Premiere's of XX and Dark Night are mentioned. Patterson (a movie which we were to screen this week, that as fate would have it got delayed) side-tracks to illogical harsh feelings towards Adam Driver, Police Academy, VHS, virtual reality, and first movie dates. Plus, as per tradition, we burn bridges with multiplexes, Vin Diesel, and Zack Snyder!

Josh checks in for a quick mini ep for the schedule of February 17th - 23rd, with a recording delayed due to constant noise of circling snow-plow's. It's a week jam packed with 10 movies (which might be a record): Moonlight, Fences, 20th Century Women, Another Evil, Julieta, Miss Sloane, Moana, Rocky Horror, Last Chance, and E.T.! We'll be back next week with a full length Oscar themed episode!

This week Josh is joined by Sam and Mark, veterans of the Absent Friends Shadowcast! Hence, we talk a lot about The Rocky Horror Picture Show. We also chat about movie's screening the week of February 10th - 16th: Oscar nominees Fences, 20th Century Women, and Moonlight, the Ottawa Premiere of They Call Us Monsters, the 90th consecutive month of The Room, and a Kids Club presentation of Race For Your Life Charlie Brown! We've also got a pair of extra special Valentine's Day screenings, Casablanca, and The Love With (another Ottawa Premiere)! Plus, why have there only been two movies that have become true cult phenomenons in the past 40 years?

Andrew, Lee, and Josh chat about movies screening from February 3rd to 9th, mostly a batch of highly acclaimed hold-over's: Jackie, Neruda (2nd weeks!), Lion (5th week!), Manchester By The Sea (6th week!), and the highly anticipated Ottawa Premiere of Kung-Fu Yoga. Plus, we get distracted with a whole bunch of Jackie Chan worship, admire the work of Chris Miller / Phil Lord, burn Zack Snyder bridges again, and have exciting news about our washrooms.

Lee and Josh multitask a podcast recording while a press screening happens in the theatre, chatting about movies screening from January 27th through February 2nd: Lion (5th week!), Kids Club presents Superman, Saturday Night Sinema, Jackie, and Neruda (a rare cinematic happening of having the Ottawa Premiere of two movies from the same director on the same day!). Plus, a bunch of Superman talk, reminiscing on horrible movie going experiences, and burning bridges with Vin Diesel and Zack Snyder!

Andrew and Josh are joined by special guest Ryan, from The Comic Book ShoppeCast! We chat about movies screening January 20th - 26th: Arrival, Hacksaw Ridge, Lion (3rd week!), Manchester By The Sea (5th week!), Ultraman X / Ultraman Ginga S double bill, and The Room (89th consecutive month!). Plus, we discuss why bad movies make a ton of money, the brother's Affleck, the difficulty of seperating the person from the artist, and more!

Happy New Year! Andrew and Josh chat about three movies at the Mayfair this week: Manchester By The Sea, Lion, and Railroad Tigers. Plus, they discuss some of their favourite movies of 2016. And, Josh typecasts Chris Pine (who comes up in conversation by being in one of the movies from the Best Of list), because he is too handsome.

Andrew and Josh get together to chat about a bunch of movies that we're screening this week, over the Holiday Season: Moonlight and Manchester By The Sea return for 2nd weeks, family matinees of Storks and Miss Peregrine's Post For Peculiar Children, American Pastoral, Christine (not the John Carpenter one), and the Ottawa Premiere of The Autopsy Of Jane Doe.

Andrew and Josh chat about the last batch of movies before the Christmas Eve / Christmas break: A pair of Golden Globe 2017 nominees with Moonlight, and Manchester By The Sea. Plus we've got Holiday Season matinees of the back by popular demand The Eagle Huntress, the animated adventure The Secret Life Of Pets, and the modern Christmas Classic, Elf!

Andrew and Josh chat about an extra packed schedule this week, for December 16th - 22nd, 2016. We've got three Ottawa Premieres: Operation Avalanche, The Eyes Of My Mother, and Seed: The Untold Story. Two films are being held over for encore weeks: Rules Don't Apply, and Loving.

Plus, we mention Thanksgiving, Philip Glass, a Donald Trump rom-com, and a crazy error in a recently released World War II film.

Josh and Andrew chat about movies screening at the Mayfair for the week of November 18th - 24th: The Dressmaker, The People Vs Fritz Bauer, The Eagle Huntress, The Handmaiden, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show! Plus, we somehow manage to wrap up the show in under 25 minutes, a new record!

This week, Sam from the Absent Friends shadow cast joins us to chat about this year's Rocky Horror Halloween screenings. Plus, Andrew tells us about our Ottawa Premiere of Don't Look Down. We also mention the rare happening of a week with 5 returning films: Gimme Danger, The Dressmaker, Denial, The Violin Teacher, and the 87th consecutive month of The Room! There are 2 edits in the podcast, thanks to computer error (and because of Josh's cat nudging a cable loose), see if you can notice them!

Josh survived the annual Rocky Horror Picture Show marathon, and delivers a lil' mini episode to chat about this week's films: Little Sister, Gimme Danger, Denial, The Dressmaker, and Finding Dory.

The weekly podcast from the historic Mayfair Theatre in Ottawa, Ontario. This week we chat about Mean Dreams, The Violin Teacher, Denial, Girl Asleep, and our annual Halloween tradition of a bunch of screenings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show hosted by the Absent Friends shadow cast!
