Spielbergpod - The Steven Spielberg Film Podcast

In this episode, Kieran and I continue our ongoing Star Wars coverage with a discussion on the recent Disney+ show, The Acolyte. We also try to take the pulse of what's going on with the franchise in general (which may have dated slightly since we recorded this because Lucasfilm is continually announcing/cancelling projects on a daily basis). 

Continuing our MCU coverage, this week Kieran and I discuss the latest Marvel show, Agatha All Along, and we have much to discuss, including the Young Avengers, the chances that the Scarlet Witch will return for more movies, why I should never be put in charge of a reality TV show, a programme no-one remembers except Kieran and me and much, much more.

In this episode Kieran and I discuss the Marvel mini-series Secret Invasion (we recorded this a couple of days after the finale aired back in the summer of 2023). We have a lot of thoughts on this show (and the state of the MCU circa July 2023). This episode was recorded as a Patreon exclusive episode (over at https://www.patreon.com/ErrP) but now it's free to listen to, for your audio entertainment. Enjoy!

In this episode (recorded back in the summer of 2023)- continuing our MCU coverage- Paul and I discuss 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' from director Jon Watts. Along the way we also give some thoughts on the future of Tom Holland's Spider-Man, as well as taking the pulse of the MCU circa summer 2023 and recalling some terrible karaoke.

An adventure 65 million years in the making!!! So, today I finally sat down and edited the conversation Kieran and I had about about Steven Spielberg's 'West Side Story' that we recorded way way back in May 2022. Apologies for taking so long to get to this but I hope you enjoy the conversation. (I'm going to get to 'The Fablemans' too- I promise!) Oh, and if you want to check out our conversation on the original 'West Side Story', this is available on the sister podcast- Easy Riders Raging Podcast- and was one of our earliest episodes.

This episode completes our trio of X-Men 'One Perfect Scene' episodes, as Kieran joins me to discuss the Quicksilver kitchen scene from 'X-Men: Days of Future Past', where Evan Peters plays a mutant speedster who runs around the room, soundtracked by Jim Croce's 'Time in a Bottle'. (Also, the name of the unnamed actor we talk about for a spell is Clark Duke)

This week- once again, ahead of the release of 'Deadpool and Wolverine', it's another X-Men related One Perfect Scene. This time around it's me and my good friend Kieran discussing the scene where Erik Lensher (played by Michael Fassbender) goes to Argentina and wrecks shop in a sleepy pub, from Matthew Vaughn's 'X-Men: First Class'.

This week- ahead of the release of 'Deadpool and Wolverine', I've returned to the One Perfect Scene format for this solo chat on the opening to 'X2' (AKA X-Men 2),  which sees Nightcrawler (played by Alan Cumming) attack the White House.

In this episode, recorded back Autumn 2022, Kieran and I discuss the first series of MCU TV show, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (we recorded this just after the series ended). This episode was recorded as a Patreon exclusive episode (over at https://www.patreon.com/ErrP) but now it's free to listen to, for your audio entertainment. Enjoy!

In this episode, recorded a couple of days after the finale aired, Kieran and I discuss the first (and possibly only- who knows!) season of Star Wars show, Ahsoka from Dave Filoni.

In this episode- recorded back in late November 2023, as I was recovering from COVID- I was delighted to be joined by Is Paul Dano OK?'s Daryl Bär to discuss 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' as part of out ongoing MCU coverage. And aside from singing the praises of this film (we're both big fans), we talk all things Spidey from our early encounters with the character, the comics, the moovies and the multitude of bizarre spin-off films Sony are apparently making (Kraven- we're looking at you and asking 'why?').  And if you want to hear more Spider-Man discussion, you can hear Paul and I talk about 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' right now by going to https://www.patreon.com/ERRP 

Okay, when I open this episode with "Recorded a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away" it turns out I'm a 1000% correct as this episode- where Paul, Kieran and I discuss Ron Howard's 'Solo: A Star Wars Story'- was recorded allllllllll the way back in May 2020. Yep, this was one of our early pandemic recordings, recorded during the very first lockdown. So expect a couple of references (both Star Wars and otherwise) to be more than a little dated, but it's a fun conversation between three Star Wars fans who have lots of thoughts on this movie. Oh, and 'the sister podcast' mentioned early on- Easy Riders Raging Podcast- is now (in 2023) on it's 4th series, where we are talking about 1980s films, TV and music videos. Obviously our 1950s run is still available from all good podcast places.

In this solo episode, I discuss the James Mangold film, 'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny'. And because this film is super new I break it down into a non-spoiler review in the first half of the ep and then I get all spoilery in the back half of the episode.

In this episode- recorded way back in early 2021- Kieran and I discuss 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand', the Robert Zemeckis directed/ Steven Spielberg produced film, which is a teen comedy set during the height of Beatlemania.

In this short solo episode- continuing our MCU coverage- I revisited James Gunn's 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2' ahead of the release of 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' later this week.

In this episode, recorded back in Spring 2021 when we were still deeply in lockdown, Kieran, Paul and I discuss the Columbo episode 'Murder by the Book', which was both the first episode of that long-running show and an episode directed by Steven Spielberg. Things to note since this episode was recorded, Angela Lansbury has since sadly passed (we talk about her being still alive in the recording) and also Kieran states Natasha Lyonne would make a perfect Columbo- and recently she has been cast in a Columbo-esque role in Rian Johnson's show Poker Face (which Kieran told me recently is very good).

In this episode- which I'm pretty sure was recorded a couple of days after Queen Elizabeth II died back in 2022 (it gets a brief reference)- Kieran and I continue our MCU Phase 3 coverage with a really fun discussion on 'Dr Strange' from director Scott Derrickson.

In this episode we pick back up with our MCU coverage as Paul and I discuss the third Captain America film, 'Captain America: Civil War'. Expect spoilers for several MCU films which precede this and also many of those which came after this, up to Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (we recorded this just before that film came out).

In this episode- recorded back in 2021- Kieran and I continued to look at Steven Spielberg's television work, with a discussion on the two episodes of 'Amazing Stories' that he directed: Ghost Train and The Mission.

You thought the format was dead- no, it was just resting it's eyes. Yes, it's the return of One Perfect Scene, where we examine on brilliant scene or sequence from Steven Spielberg's filmography. This week I'm joined by my good friend Paul to discuss the final scene of 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial' where the alien says goodbye to the family and then- reunited with its family- leaves the planet.
