April 03, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 61.2 MB

How does one overcome the struggles of creating an award-winning short film by themselves?

Ep. 59 I Don't Give A Flick! - Success by the Numbers

March 24, 2023 23:00 - 1 hour - 47.7 MB

How does one rise up among the large groups of people who are seeking fame and fortune to be one of the fortunate who succeed? It takes a lot of skill, a heaping pile of luck, and, perhaps, looking to the numbers and stats of the fans you get in order to build off that triumph. Staying true to yourself will take you farther than constantly remolding yourself. Joining us this week is special guest John Edmonds Kozma with Bang Productions, Inc. on how he seeks out talent and how he promotes th...

Ep. 58 I Don't Give A Flick! - Best & Worst Plot Twists

December 08, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour - 80.5 MB

You're watching a movie and suddenly, the whole meaning of the plot changes in a second, totally changing your view of what has transpired. Throughout history, films have used plot twists to pull the rug out from under their audiences to make them question everything they thought they knew of the script. But, sometimes these are done more successfully than others, and when they go wrong, it can be detrimental. Join Jonny and Gary this week as we discuss this exciting topic. Joining us this w...

Ep. 57 I Don't Give A Flick! - The Evolution of Dramatic TV

November 28, 2022 07:00 - 2 hours - 99.1 MB

Throughout the ages of television, the drama has grown and evolved, much like a Pokémon. From the classics of the mid 20th century, through the blossoming of the golden age of dramatic tv in the early part of the 21st, the scope and budget may have enlarged, but has the quality? That is the question we aim to explore on this episode of I Don't Give a Flick! Join Jonny, Neil and Gary and we carve our way through this exciting topic.

August 27, 2022 15:00 - 2 hours - 92 MB

A dark night cloaks the city. The streets run rampant with crime as the citizens cry out for a hero. No, we're not talking about New York City, we're talking about Gotham, and the hero that answers the call is the Batman. Since his creation in 1939, Batman has been a staple of comic books. With movies stretching back six decades, the Caped Crusader has had several different iterations over the years, from Adam West to the guy from Twilight. Join Jonny and Gary as we discuss the first part of...

August 01, 2022 18:00 - 2 hours - 90.5 MB

The Academy Award for Best Picture often goes to films that most people... wouldn't agree with. But once in awhile, the Academy does actually pick the best picture of the year (for example, in 1991 when Dances with Wolves beat out Godfellas). Join Jonny, Neil and Gary this week as we discuss what makes a good Academy candidate and what our Mount Rushmore Plus One (C) is. Joining us this week is special guest Ian Webb. Grab your popcorn and enjoy the show, because this one has video!

Ep. 53 I Don't Give A Flick! - Existential Films

March 09, 2022 23:00 - 1 hour - 70.6 MB

"To be, or not to be? That is the question."  Well, no, that's not really the question today. Today's question is about what are existential films and how do they affect us as filmgoers? What does it mean to have a film which discusses the nature of life and the meanings behind it? And do people watch these movies at all? That is the question we attempt to answer on today's episode! Please join Jonny, Neil, and Gary as we tackle this topic. Special guests this week are Ian Webb and Bob Peck!

Ep. 52 I Don't Give A Flick! - Movie Musicals

March 08, 2022 20:00 - 1 hour - 77.4 MB

Singing, dancing, long run-times. All are staples of movie musicals. But what makes a film musical? And what makes them truly exceptional? And why do some of them sing everything while some of them have very limited musical scores? Why do I have so much treble writing a blurb for podcasts? Join Jonny, Neil and Gary this week as we discuss these and other issues. Special guests this week are the astoundingly talented Meg Steiner and Kat Leidlein. 

Ep. 51 I Don't Give A Flick! - Best Actresses of All Time

Ep. 50 I Don't Give A Flick! - Enter the Flick: The Matrix Franchise

December 18, 2021 14:00 - 2 hours - 95 MB

Join Jonny, Neil, and Gary as we put on our black sunglasses, black shirts, black jackets, black pants, black boots and, although you never see it we are going to assume black underwear, and explore the Desert of the Real! Special guests this week include...

Ep. 49 I Don't Give A Flick! - Indie Filmmaking

November 22, 2021 12:00 - 2 hours - 87.2 MB

"Lights. Camera. Action!" How do you know you're on an indie film set? When you're the one doing all three jobs. Small-budget films are some of the most interesting and dynamic movies ever made, using shoestring budgets cobbled together from life savings, borrowed funds, and a little bit of credit card shell games, these works of heart are done by film makers who put their all on the line for the stories they wish to tell. Join Jonny, Neil and Gary this week as we delve into the world of ind...

Ep. 48 I Don't Give A Flick! - Hollywood Remakes

November 15, 2021 12:00 - 1 hour - 69.9 MB

"If you don't take the chance, you'll never know what could have been." The quote by Brad Turnbull is apt for movie studios in the 2020s. So many of the films created are remakes or "soft" reboots of prior successes. Is this something which is good for the industry and allow new talented people to leave their mark on a story, or is this a safe copout that studios take to avoid the risks of putting something new out? Join Jonny, Neil and Gary this week as we tackle this very question. Truth b...

Ep. 46 I Don't Give A Flick! - Horror Subgenres

October 27, 2021 14:00 - 2 hours - 93.9 MB

Ah, the time of Halloween. What a special moment in everyone's life once a year where you can dress up in crazy outfits and not be thought a freak. There are so many popular films which terrify and bewilder us at this time of year and have made an indelible mark on the landscape of film, but how can we break this gigantic genre of horror down into smaller groups to better understand it? That's the question we ask this week! Join Jonny and Gary and we delve into this spooky question. Special ...

Ep. 45 I Don't Give A Flick! - M. Night Shyamalan

September 13, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 82 MB

The career of M. Night Shyamalan has been one of starting at the top and falling to the very depths of memeory. But, much like his film style, is there a Renaissance or twist for him going forward? His work on The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and Signs brought the previously unknown director into the spotlight, but did that spotlight prove too much for the young Shyamalan and cause him to wilt under the pressure of his previous successes? Overarching in the story of M. Night has been his faith ...

Ep. 44 I Don't Give A Flick! - What Makes A Great Sitcom?

September 06, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 74 MB

From the earliest days of television, sitcoms (short for situational comedies) have been a staple of programming available. People love to sit back, relax, and let their minds enjoy some light-hearted laughter as they watch actors in situations sometimes nearly beyond belief. But why do we still after more than 70 years of television still love these shows? From the Honeymooners to I Love Lucy to Parks and Recreation and the Office, these shows have captured attention and advertising dollars...

Ep. 43 I Don't Give A Flick! - Critics Gonna Hate; Fans Think They're Great

August 30, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 53.5 MB

Today we discuss a group of elites who are extraordinarily out of touch with the people they supposedly serve. No, not politicians: film critics. As the decades have continued on, the chasm of disparity between what critics like and what their audiences enjoy has only widened. Websites such as Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB have begun listing not only what the aggregate of the critics' score is, but also what the audience rates it too overall, and those difference can be quite large indeed. Join J...

Ep. 42 I Don't Give A Flick! - An Episode You Can't Refuse

August 23, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 67.3 MB

As far back as this podcast goes, Jonny always wanted to do one on gangsters. Or, something like that. Mafia movies, gangster flicks, hood films, and cartel pictures are all some of the most recognizable staples of the cinema. Some of them have an antihero, like Michael Corleone; some of them an unrepentant perp like Scarface, and some have the guy that's just trying to make his way through the mean streets like Henry Hill. Join us this week as Jonny and Gary discuss our favorite pictures in...

Ep. 41 I Don't Give A Flick! - The MCU: Phase I

August 14, 2021 11:00 - 2 hours - 82.9 MB

The biggest film franchise in history is the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With more than 30 films in the first three phases and grossing more than $20,000,000,000 worldwide, there can be no doubt that this juggernaut of a franchise leads the way in ticket sales. But when Marvel Studios first formed in the mid-2000s, this was far less of a certain future and more of a gamble. Since the MCU is such a large body of work, we're eating this elephant one piece at a time and talking only about the Ph...

Ep. 40 I Don't Give A Flick! - Take It to the Limit: Method vs. Technical Acting

August 07, 2021 11:00 - 2 hours - 89.8 MB

Throughout time, there have been rivalries which are of the ages: England vs. France, Foreman vs. Ali, Palmer vs. Nicklaus. But there is another rivalry which is no less epic in scope in the world of cinema; method vs. technical acting.  Finally, the episode is here discussing Method vs. Technical acting! For two-decades, hosts Jonny and Gary have hotly debated which of the two acting theories is best; join us today as we try and answer that question. Special guests this week are three talen...

July 31, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 67.5 MB

“Get to the chopper!” “Adrieeeeeeeeeeen!” “Yippie ki yay” “Two day til retirement” These are just some of the lines from amazing action films. The explosions, the shooting, the hand-to-hand combat, and much more all make some of the biggest box office films get our adrenaline pumping and on the edge of our seat. But who are the top action heroes of all time? Join Jonny, Neil, and Gary as we build our trademarked Mount Rushmore Plus One for action heroes!

Ep. 38 I Don't Give A Flick! - The Rating System

July 24, 2021 11:00 - 1 hour - 64.9 MB

This Podcast is not yet rated... oh wait... it is as mature content. The MPAA has been the rating system for films for the last seven decades and has created a great deal of conversation about what makes films G, PG, PG-13, R, or NC-17. But, is this a necessary feature of life? And is it done in a consistent manner? Join Jonny, Neil and Gary this week as we discuss our thoughts on this keystone piece of American cinema. This week's special guests include Kapil Mahendra and Lucas Herr.

Ep. 37 I Don't Give A Flick! - Tarantino: The Second Greatest Director of All Time

July 17, 2021 07:00 - 2 hours - 85.4 MB

When the story of this world is written, there will be a chapter in it on film; and within that chapter will be a section on Hollywood; and somewhere within that section is a paragraph on Quentin Tarantino, who will undoubtedly  be labeled as the number two director of all time. In this episode, Jonny, Neil, and Gary explore the works of Tarantino, from Reservoir Dogs to Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. Joining us this week are Ian Webb of the hit podcast Movies So Good They're Bad,  and Nick ...

Ep. 36 I Don't Give A Flick! - Captivating Opening Scenes

May 25, 2021 12:00 - 1 hour - 72.1 MB

One of the most critical parts of films is the opening scene. They draw us in to the story, set the stage for the world of the film, and show us the tone of the film. In short, they are critical to the success or failure of the movie. In this episode, Jonny and Gary discuss what makes a captivating opening scene as well as what some of our most favorite ones have been over the years. Special guest this week is Ian Webb of the hit podcasts Movies So Bad, They're Good...Midnight Cult Classics ...

May 03, 2021 09:00 - 2 hours - 87.1 MB

For more than 30 years, Adam Sandler has been a box-office and silver screen draw; films which have soared to the heavens, and films which have skimmed the very depths of Hell itself. In this episode, Jonny and Gary discuss the merits and foibles of one of America's most prolific and highest grossing film stars: Adam Sandler. We go through every (clap) single (clap) Sandler (clap) film. Buckle up buckaroos because... it's gonna be painful. Speaking of painful, this week's special guest is no...

Ep. 33 I Don't Give A Flick! - The Demise of the Hollywood A-Lister

April 03, 2021 18:00 - 1 hour - 62.3 MB

Their name in lights alone can bring in hundreds of thousands of ticket sales as fans flock to see their latest debut: The Hollywood A-Lister. But what has happened to them over the last few decades? Do they still have the same level of draw as they did before, and if not, why? Join Jonny and Gary as we discuss this developing topic. Joining us this week are special guests Ian Webb of the podcast Movies So Bad They're Good, Lucas Herr and the indefatigable Michael Payne as we put the face of...

Ep. 32 I Don't Give A Flick! - Best Directors 2: The Directoring

March 02, 2021 05:00 - 1 hour - 74.5 MB

What makes an excellent director and who make our top-tier of them? Is it their ability to manage the whole production, or knowing how to evoke from the actors the performances which move us, or is it something completely different? We start off with a look at who are awful directors and what and why they fail to achieve success. Join Jonny, Neil and Gary as we dive into this topic once again to uncover what we missed. Special guests this week are Ian Webb of the podcast Movies So Bad They'r...

Ep. 31 I Don't Give A Flick! - Music In Films

February 22, 2021 12:00 - 2 hours - 86.3 MB

Music carries us away to the enchanted plains of Gondor, makes our heart race with shrieking violins in showers, fills us with wonder as we see a brachiosaurus on it's hind legs eating from a tree, and makes us cry as the little flag on the mailbox goes up and down signaling a letter from three years earlier (or later) has arrived. Film has always been a medium which leans heavily on the composer's ability to push the audience's emotions in the direction the film wants them to go. Take a not...

Ep. 30 I Don't Give A Flick! - Romance Films

February 10, 2021 19:00 - 1 hour - 71.4 MB

Once a year, we pause to admire the trappings of Eros and how the Arrow of Love strikes each of us. From the joys of first love to the final conclusion of slitting your wrists, films of all types usually carry some story of love or romance within their tale. As one of the most fundamental aspects of humanity, we see these stories played out in nearly every work of art throughout history, and film is no different. Join Jonny, Neil, and Gary this week as we explore romance in film, our favorit...

Ep. 29 I Don't Give A Flick! - Star Trek Franchise

February 08, 2021 07:00 - 2 hours - 101 MB

"Beam me up, Scotty!" This was a line which was never directly said in the original Star Trek television show, but has nonetheless become a staple of modern pop culture today. How did a cheesy 1960s TV show become such a beloved and sometimes misunderstood 60-minute delve into human morality and the possibilities of Humanity's future? This week, we take a trek into the stars to answer that very question. Join Jonny, Neil and Gary as we engage our engines and see what's out there, traveling t...

People shall look back on the year of our Lord 2020 and not have one nice thing to say about it.

From Frankenhooker (1990) to Skins (2017), we've got you covered in crap, which is the only way to end the year. Special guest this...

Heraclitus, a Greek philosopher, once said that you can never step into the same river twice.

Special guests this week Carlton Caudle, Shanna Toft, Skeeta Jenkins, and Peggy Schott.
