The Last Duel (2021)::rating::3.5::rating::3.5::rating::3.5

When The Last Duel tanked at the box office, director Ridley Scott threw a raving hissy fit. He blamed the film's financial failure on millennials with their iPhones and the Facebook and whatnot. As soon as anybody figures out what the hell he's talking about, be sure and let me know. Whatever the case, Scott joins…

Guilty Pleasure Movies (The Brian Dennehy Special)::rating::0

With that in mind, this week Trav and I go over our guilty pleasure movies. To pair with it, I came up with a decadent concoction called Chocolate Sangria. To make it, start with two parts Chocovine–a cordial-type blend of red wine and milk chocolate–and dump in a shot of Pinnacle Whipped Vodka. Top it…

Overlord (2018)::rating::0

For this week’s episode, Travis and I talk about Overlord, the new WWII/Zombie epic. Because this film is set entirely in France, we’ll be drinking a selection of French wines. All three of these dudes will pair well with typical holiday meals, so even if gory action movies ain’t your thang, give these bottles a look:…

First Man (2018)::rating::0

This week, Travis and I drink a little red wine and talk about “First Man,” and the Star Wars franchise. Our wine this week is a blend from Bonny Doon Vineyards called Cigare Volante. It’s an American wine inspired by the reds of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, in France. Wines from this area in the Rhone region are consistently…

We Don't Need Another Hero::rating::0

*This is a re-upload. On October 11, 2018, Cinemavino debuted on an unsuspecting world. Much like WWE, it was beautiful, gripping…it was RAW. And it was just me and Trav. Taylor was somewhere deep in the Himalayas. Sean was touring with the Stones. We were pretty nervous for this first Todd-pod, and it does show a bit.…

The Beatles: Get Back (Episodes 2 & 3)::rating::0

For this week’s Cinemavino, Sean and I continue our look at Peter Jackson’s mammoth documentary, The Beatles: Get Back. Jackson did an outstanding job of ironing 160 hours of raw footage into three coherent acts. Not surprisingly, part II takes the Beatles into some of their darkest depths, as they try to bring George Harrison back into…

Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021)::rating::2

This film is better than its predecessor, but making anything worse than Venom would’ve been a challenge that probably requires a deal with Satan.

The Beatles: Get Back (2021)::rating::4.5

"S unrise doesn't last all morning," a wise man once sang to us. "A cloudburst doesn't last all day." At their best and brightest, the Beatles found a way to embody both natural phenomena: For eight glorious years, four working-class boys from Liverpool painted our horizon with a masterpiece of a million colors. At the…

Red Notice (2021)::rating::2

I t's ironic that Red Notice made history by using drones for cinematography, because I think those same robots had a hand in writing the screenplay. Every moment of this ridiculously expensive, wholly bloodless enterprise feels that hollow and mechanical. I picture several cyborgs sitting at keyboards, clacking away furiously and speaking in their nasally, monotonous robot…

The Beatles: Get Back (Episode 1)::rating::0

The Beatles are my all-time favorite band, and I’ve spent my life as a walking encyclopedia of their music and history. Like millions of fans, their music has changed my life. Long story short: This isn’t just another podcast for me. I’ve been pumped for Peter Jackson’s documentary since I saw his work on They Shall…
